Intelligence Commission (Part 2, Happy 520 to Everyone)

At this moment, Nick Fury harbored a sliver of hope. On one hand, he hoped that Charlotte knew nothing about Asgard, which would lower the threat assessment of the other side. On the other hand, he hoped that Earth's supernatural forces would have some ability to retaliate.

Even if this power is not under his control for the time being, there is still a big difference between having it and not having it.

It all depended on what news Coulson would get. Nick Fury then turned his attention to Chen Haoran's latest report.

······

Just as Charlotte materialized Sakura Haruno into the real world, a system notification sounded in her mind.

Ding! Title obtained: <The Original Team 7>!

However, all four of them— Kakashi, Sakura Haruno, Naruto Uzumaki, and Sasuke Uchiha— were materialized into the human world by Charlotte. Although Kakashi Hatake was not Jonin who had already left the Anbu, he was still counted as the leader of the Kakashi.

Charlotte opened the system's title menu and checked the title rewards.

Clicking on "The Original Team 7" reveals a photo of Kakashi standing behind the three, his left hand on Sasuke Uchiha's head and his right hand on Naruto's head, in a group photo with the entire team.

Looking at the group photo of the four people in front of her, Charlotte began to check the rewards for the title.

Reward: One ninja battle slot!

Charlotte smiled upon seeing the reward, considering that a single battle slot now cost 20,000 Gold Coin, which was by no means cheap.

It turns out that the Konoha 12 Genin are not just Kakashi's Team 7, but also Team 3, Team 8, and Team 10 10, with teachers including Michael, Kurenai Yuhi, and Asuma Sarutobi.

Although Charlotte was very interested in the rewards for the other three teams, he hadn't even collected all Konoha 12 yet, let alone their team leaders.

After giving Sakura Haruno a brief explanation of the rules of this world and who the other ninjas were, Charlotte had a staff member from the Continental Hotel come over to process Sakura Haruno's identity documents. She then handed her over to Catherine to learn about this new world.

······

Before Charlotte had even had a few minutes to rest, Coulson arrived at the Agency with a team of S.H.I.E.L.D.. agents.

After getting out of the car, Coulson did not bring the entire team of agents into the Agency. Instead, he had his team wait outside while he went in empty-handed.

Pushing open the door of the Agency, Coulson walked in. Once inside, Coulson headed towards the reception Agency, but his gaze swept over the entire interior of the Agency as he went.

With his exceptional memory, Coulson discovered that everything inside—the furniture, the tables and chairs—was exactly the same as before it was destroyed, with no difference whatsoever, except for the replacement of some staff members.

It seems that the ninja, this extraordinary force, still holds many secrets.

Arriving at the service counter, Coulson frowned slightly as he looked at the woman in front of him and the unfamiliar girl beside her, thinking to himself, "They've changed people. It seems Iruka is no longer in charge of this area."

However, upon seeing the Headband on the girl's head, Coulson knew that she was another ninja. Although he didn't know her exact strength, considering the strength of Rock Lee and Temari, she was probably not a simple character.

"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hello, this is Agent Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D.. I need to request some intelligence-related tasks. Could you please contact Charlotte Doyle?"

Sakura Haruno stared wide-eyed at the unfamiliar man before her. She had only been in this world for a short while when she heard someone requesting a mission from Lord Charlotte.

Please wait in the Reception Room.

A staff member standing next to the service desk walked up to Coulson.

"Sir, please come with me."

Coulson followed the staff into the Reception Room, where he awaited Charlotte's arrival.

Catherine picked up the phone at the service desk and dialed Charlotte directly.

"Sir, Agent Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D.. has arrived."

"Yes, it's an intelligence-related mission."

"They didn't bring anything, but there's an armored truck and a small team parked outside the Agency. The entrusted item must be there."

"Yes, I understand."

Sakura Haruno stared wide-eyed at Selene, who had just hung up the phone, and asked, "Sister Selene, is Lord Charlotte going to receive this person?"

Selene nodded, glanced at the little girl in front of her, and said with a smile, "Yes, Lord Charlotte will be coming down in a moment."

"The items they entrusted with intelligence are very important to us."

Sakura Haruno nodded thoughtfully, and then Selene continued to explain the basics of this world to her.

Coulson was sitting on the sofa in the Reception Room, with a cup of coffee in front of him.

Looking at the room layout, which was exactly the same as before it was destroyed, I marveled at the power of the ninjas.

At the same time, he guessed that he should be able to get the answer he wanted from today's intelligence request.

After all, having an ally of the level of God King, who is himself a god, would greatly benefit S.H.I.E.L.D.., and could also be used to suppress the ninjas' power when necessary.

Just as Coulson was pondering, Charlotte pushed open the door to the Reception Room and walked in.

"Long time no see, Coulson."

When Coulson saw Charlotte enter, he immediately stood up and stepped forward to shake her hand, saying, "Long time no see, Mr. Charlotte."

Charlotte sat down on the sofa and looked at Coulson in front of her, saying, "

"Looks like S.H.I.E.L.D.. is patronizing my business again."

"I don't know what kind of intelligence request it was."

Coulson sat up straight, then took out a tablet and placed it in front of Charlotte.

Seeing Coulson's actions, Charlotte picked up the tablet on the table and opened the video that wasn't playing.

As the video played, Charlotte was transported to the scene of the Destroyer wreaking havoc in the town, as well as the battle between Thor, Sif, and the Warriors Three against the Destroyer.

Ever since Charlotte picked up the tablet, Coulson had been watching Charlotte's facial expressions closely. He noticed that Charlotte's expression didn't change at all, and for a moment he didn't know whether Charlotte knew anything about Thor and the others.

Charlotte put down her tablet and knew her chance to acquire a batch of Energy Stone had come; it all depended on how many the other party had prepared this time.

"What information do you want to know this time?"

"Based on your task assignment, I will determine the price of the commission."

Coulson hesitated for a moment before speaking, "A week ago, we were attacked in a small town in New Mexico."

"A prince claiming to be from Asgard, Thor, descended upon the town, accompanied by four members of Asgard and a steel robot sent by Loki, another prince of Asgard. A great battle ensued in the town."

"The battle between the two sides resulted in the destruction of the entire town, and after the war Thor and his friends left Earth."

"It's the battle scene you just saw in the video."

Charlotte nodded, indicating that she understood.

"I need to confirm a few pieces of information. First, the identities of the people appearing in the video."

"Second: If they are truly the gods of the Asgard, then where are the gods of the Asgard? Why have they not appeared for more than ten centuries after leaving behind myths and legends a thousand years ago?"

"Third: What kind of force and organization are the gods of the Asgard, and how strong are they?"

Fourth: What is their purpose in being born this time?

Coulson asked four questions in a row, then stopped talking, picked up the coffee on the table, took a sip, and moistened his throat.

Seeing that Coulson had stopped, Charlotte said, "Each identity in the video, including the robot and the person behind it, is worth 50 Energy Stone."

"Sold as a package; information is not sold separately."

Charlotte understood that once she confirmed someone's information, Coulson would be able to verify the authenticity of the intelligence information obtained from Jane and the others, so she simply sold it as a package.

Coulson paused for a moment upon hearing such a high price, then said, "Charlotte, 50 Energy Block per person? Isn't that price a bit outrageous?"

"No, believe me they're worth the price."

"As for your later questions, there aren't three questions, but five."

"One question costs 50 Energy Stone, so you need to pay 600 Energy Stone."

Upon hearing Charlotte's offer, Coulson was taken aback; the price was indeed getting higher and higher each time.

After a moment's hesitation, however, he accepted Charlotte's offer.

"Okay, we'll go with your price."

In fact, after Charlotte turned the four questions into twelve intelligence requests, Coulson realized that since so much intelligence could exist, the existence of the gods in Asgard was confirmed; otherwise, there would be no need to break down a single mission request.

However, in order to learn more about these gods, Coulson did not change his mission assignment. He knew that the intelligence was in Charlotte's hands, and changing his mind and playing tricks on her at this time would not be a good thing for S.H.I.E.L.D..

Charlotte didn't hesitate and immediately took the six blank Mission Scroll Catherine had sent and began writing intelligence requests on them.

After Charlotte wrote down the intelligence request, Coulson didn't hesitate. He took the Mission Scroll and signed his name on it.

Seeing that everything was settled, Charlotte said, "Your mission fee hasn't been paid yet."

"Mr. Charlotte, I was unaware that this mission required so many Energy Block; the number I brought is insufficient."

"However, I will have headquarters staff transport it over later."

Charlotte smiled and said, "Alright, considering our many collaborations, this time I'll let you get the information first, and you'll pay later."

"However, I hope this situation will not happen again in the future."

"Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Charlotte."

Charlotte picked up the tablet on the table, paused it on Thor's image, and began to speak.

"This is Thor, the eldest son of All-Father Odin of the Asgard, and also a prince of the Asgard."

"Just from the name, you can understand that this is a god who controls thunder."

Hearing Charlotte's information, which was no different from what he already knew, he nodded to indicate that he understood.

Charlotte then brought up Sif's image and continued speaking:

"This is Sif, the goddess of land and harvest in the Asgard."

Thinking of something from a fairy tale, Coulson asked, "Was she Thor's wife?"

Charlotte smiled and then said, "In principle, I should charge separately for this question, but I'll tell you anyway."

"She is Thor's childhood sweetheart, but they are not married, nor is Thor's wife."

Hearing this answer, Coulson breathed a sigh of relief. It was good it wasn't his wife; if it wasn't Jane Foster, then he had a chance...

"As for these three, they are the Warriors Three of Asgard, and Thor's companions: Fandral, Hogun, and Volstagg."

After introducing the five people, Charlotte pointed to the Destroyer destroying everything in the video and said, "That's the Destroyer Armor."

"It is a powerful suit of armor created by Odin, by gathering the power of all the gods. It can be worn on the body and can also be remotely controlled, as shown in the video."

"And the one who was manipulating all of this at the time was Thor's brother, Loki, the God of Mischief."

"These are the identities of these individuals."

After Charlotte finished explaining everyone's identities, Coulson nodded. This was no different from the information they already possessed, except that Charlotte had confirmed its authenticity.

Charlotte then continued, "As for the gods of the Asgard, where they reside and why they have not appeared on Earth for so long..."

Charlotte took out a piece of white paper and simply drew a Yggdrasil on it, along with nine planets growing on the Yggdrasil.

"The place where the Aesir gods reside is called Asgard, not on Earth. In the description of the Nine Realms of the Yggdrasil, Earth is called Midgard, also known as Midgard."

"As for why myths about each other could remain on Earth more than a thousand years ago, it's because the Frost Giant who ruled Jotunheim at that time waged war against the gods of the Asgard."

"And one of the battlefields was Earth, so the gods of the Asgard left their myths and legends on Earth."

As for why they didn't return to Earth after leaving, Charlotte said, "No one knows the specific reason. Perhaps it's because there was nothing on Earth that they would miss."

"Moreover, the Asgard have an extremely long lifespan, reaching up to 5,000 years."

Upon hearing that the Asgard ' lifespan was only 5,000 years, Coulson paused for a moment, then asked, "Shouldn't the lifespan of gods be infinite?"

Charlotte glanced at Coulson, then said calmly, "The Asgard are called the Aesir, but in my eyes, they are just a group of powerful aliens, only with longer lifespans and greater strength compared to ordinary Earthlings."
