"Wait! Before starting the ceremony, I have one more important thing to ask you.
With that said, Coulson took the wrapped Zanpakuto from Fitz's hand and asked with a solemn expression, "This weapon has developed independent consciousness and thinking as you said before, and is trying to snatch control of the body from me. Is there any way you can restore it to its original appearance?"
"Oh? Already finished Shikai?"
An unnoticeable surprise flashed across Allen's eyes. He picked up Zanpakuto and felt the cold and murderous soul inside.
Normally, Zanpakuto should be an extension of Death's soul and the most true reflection of his heart.
Theoretically, no Zanpakuto will truly resist its master. At best, it will only set up some obstacles so that it can better communicate with itself and eventually master the legendary Bankai.
That is to fully release the potential deep in the soul.
But this Zanpakuto, which awakens itself by swallowing its soul, is rather special, and it does not rely entirely on the soul power of Coulson.
Instead, it slowly accumulates power by killing and devouring the souls of other creatures until it reaches the minimum Reiatsu required for awakening.
But similarly, during use, Coulson's thoughts and will inevitably have a certain impact on Zanpakuto.
So when the two were combined, changes occurred that even Allen had not expected.
For example, Coulson longs for powerful power, so this Zanpakuto has the ability to strengthen the holder in all directions, including physical fitness and soul.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to use techniques like Shunpo in battle and still have his feet safe.
If it were an ordinary person, his legs and feet would have been broken by the explosive force generated by Reiatsu.
As for the strange shield shape after Shikai, it takes into account both attack and defense.
Especially when the shield is swung and struck, the front end will violently spray Reiatsu at the target, crushing and crushing the opponent.
And the farther the impact distance, the stronger the destructive power produced by spraying Reiatsu.
Through Zanpakuto itself, Allen could easily see the male figure standing on the battlefield, his body covered with metal armor, his face full of unruly expression, and he immediately said with a smile, "You are lucky."
"Good luck?"
Coulson, who was almost completely controlled by Zanpakuto's will, frowned subconsciously, not understanding how such a dangerous situation could be related to good luck.
Especially the overwhelming killing intent during battle and the strong desire to devour souls made him feel as if he was possessed by a demon.
Allen nodded slightly. "That's right! This Zanpakuto was successfully dyed with your own color by you, and it did not completely lose control and turn into a terrible magic knife or demon knife. If you are willing to calm down, communicate with it, and pass the tests it sets, then you can gain its recognition and become a true master. At the same time, your Reiatsu will continue to strengthen under the influence of Zanpakuto until it becomes a powerful Death."
"What? Death!"
Coulson Beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead. He was obviously frightened by this word that symbolized death and misfortune.
After all, in Western society, Death generally does not have a good reputation, and myths and legends often appear in negative images.
"I think you seem to have misunderstood something. The Death I am referring to here is not the Death you imagine wearing a black robe and holding a sickle, but another super Ability User that uses soul power. The Zanpakuto you use is actually a weapon forged by the Deaths with their own souls. It's just that your Reiatsu was too low to breed your own Zanpakuto, so you used this evil method."
Allen handed Zanpakuto back to Coulson and explained nonchalantly.
Coulson showed an expression that seemed to understand, and cautiously probed. "Then what does it mean to be Death?"
"First of all, becoming Death means that even if your body ages, Decay and dies, your soul can stay in this world for hundreds or even thousands of years. Secondly, you can control the power of the soul to fight, and ordinary people cannot see or detect your existence at all. Finally, and most importantly, you can deeply develop the power of Zanpakuto through practice. Not only Shikai, but also the more powerful Bankai..."
Allen listed in great detail the benefits that can be enjoyed by becoming Death.
It's not a bad thing for a conscientious person like Coulson to gain the power of Death.
On the contrary, he can cooperate with the mages of Kamar-Taj, which can greatly frighten those Demon God from other dimensions.
After all, an attack that directly hits the soul is quite threatening to any creature with a soul.
"What about the potential danger? What happens if I fail?"
Coulson is indeed a proven senior agent. He is not fooled by the series of benefits at all. Instead, he is more concerned about the damage that may be caused.
Allen replied meaningfully, "If you fail, then the self-awareness will become weaker and weaker in this tug of war, and even eventually be swallowed up by Zanpakuto's will and become a part of it. If you want to gain power, you have to pay a corresponding price. There is no such thing as a free lunch, you should know this."
"I...I think I need to think about it. "Coulson obviously hesitated.
Because he has personally felt the power and purity of Zanpakuto's will, he doesn't know if he can pass the test.
What's more, he is also the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and is responsible to International Security Council and his agents.
"Okay, whatever you want, I've told you everything I need to tell you."
Allen didn't force it, he just shrugged his shoulders, took the box from Melinda, opened it and took out Obelisk.
Instantly!
Bright golden lines appeared on the surface of Obelisk again, and the reaction was more violent than the last time. It was obviously affected by the platform in the temple.
"What to do next? "Skye came up to me at some point.
She didn't know why, but her heartbeat was frighteningly fast at this time, as if she already felt that she was standing at the crossroads of fate.
"It's simple! See that base on the stand? The next thing to do is to put this thing on and activate it completely. Oh, I almost forgot, others had better step back immediately and keep a distance of at least thirty meters. Because in the records of Kree, what is released in the ceremony may kill all life forms that do not carry the Alien Race gene. "Allen solemnly issued a warning to the curious babies around him.
There are several International Security Council eyeliners installed inside S.H.I.E.L.D., and their faces are almost touching the platform in the center of the temple.
"Except for Skye, everyone else should step back immediately! Move faster! Fitz, Simmons, please arrange the instruments and cameras, and be sure to film the entire process."
Coulson stepped into his role and loudly gave orders to his agents.
Since he has had too many experiences and lessons, he never dared to hesitate at all about Allen's words.
Most importantly, it has been proven that Obelisk will indeed kill ordinary people and turn them into black carbide like stone.
In about five minutes, most of the agents retreated outside the circular ceremony venue, leaving only three drones controlled by Fitz for filming.
The moment Allen activated the mechanism, two figures suddenly rushed out of the darkness, leaped deep at Blitz Gundam's speed, and rolled to the platform in the center of the temple.
Coulson undoubtedly saw this scene and subconsciously wanted to order his men to fire, but it was too late.
Before he could make a sound, the stone wall slowly completely separated the inside and outside.
Not to mention bullets, even energy weapons may not be able to penetrate the thick wall in a short time.
Of course, another reason is that Coulson believes that Allen is here, so there is no need to worry about what danger Skye will encounter.
Just the opposite!
It was the two intruders that he should be worried about.
After all, in front of Allen, sometimes a clean death is also a kind of luck and luxury.
With a rumbling sound, the stone wall used to block the inside and outside of the temple was finally completely closed. Only the small hole above the head was still connected to the outside world, and a ray of golden sunlight shone down from above.
"Is it you?!"
Skye undoubtedly recognized Lena and immediately pulled out the pistol on his waist and pointed it at him.
As early as when she was investigating Project Centipede, she had dealt with him and knew that this woman worked for Hydra.
"Relax, don't be so nervous. I am not here today to fight you, but to embrace my destiny. "Lena stared at Obelisk with his eyes, full of naked and undisguised desire.
It was clear that she believed she was special, a chosen one chosen by God, destined to follow a different path.
In contrast, Carl stared at his daughter who had been separated for twenty years. His whole body was shaking with excitement, and tears kept rolling in his eyes.
Several times I wanted to open my mouth to recognize each other, but at the last moment I choked up and couldn't even say a word.
After a full minute, he finally suppressed his out-of-control emotions and slowly opened his mouth and shouted a name.
"Daisy..."
"Daisy?"
Quake obviously hasn't realized that the middle-aged man standing in front of him is the biological father he has always dreamed of seeing, and there is a puzzled look on his face.
Because at this moment, there are only four people standing in this small circle, including two men and two women.
She knew the name Allen, and also knew that the woman in the floral skirt was called Lena.
And Daisy is obviously a girl's name, so it is unlikely that it is a middle-aged man's self-proclaimed name.
This also means...
Daisy refers to yourself!
Your real name is Daisy?!
After getting this answer, Skye also became excited and asked sternly, "How do you know my name is Daisy? Say it quickly! Who are you! What is the relationship with Hydra, who attacked my biological parents back then?"
"I am your father——Carl·Johnson. Skye is not your real name at all! Your real name is Daisy·Johnson! Your mother's name is Jia Ying! It's S.H.I.E.L.D.! They took you from me and hid you again. Over the years, I have been searching for your whereabouts. "Carl waved his hands and roared angrily.
After his wife was kidnapped, her intestines were dislocated and she almost died.
The daughter was inexplicably taken away by people from S.H.I.E.L.D., her identity was erased, and she was sent to an orphanage. She disappeared for more than 20 years.
It can be said that his originally happy and happy family was destroyed and torn apart in this way, and no man would be able to bear it.
The reason why he didn't have a mental breakdown or go completely crazy was entirely supported by his strong will to find his daughter.
"Father... Father?"
Quake obviously couldn't believe that all this was true, so he subconsciously turned around and asked Allen for help.
"He didn't lie."
Allen answered directly in the affirmative, and at the same time placed Obelisk on the circular table in the middle.
Soon, there was a slight sound and vibration.
The metal wrapped around Obelisk slowly opened, revealing the Terrigen Crystal hidden inside.
Judging from the color and purity, this crystal should be refined from Kree and does not contain any impurities.
In fact, Terrigen Crystal is divided into two types.
One is pure crystal without any impurities, just like the one in front of you.
Another type is "Afterlife" crystals containing impurities used by Inhumans.
In the former, apart from the metal wrapped around it, the crystal itself does not cause any harm to ordinary people.
But because the latter failed to extract the metal impurities from the crystal, even if an ordinary person touches it, it will immediately cause irreversible serious effects.
Coulson later lost his hand because he touched Terrigen Crystal made by "Afterlife" which contained metal impurities.
Of course, it is not ruled out that they did this deliberately to prevent ordinary people from stealing or studying the mysterious substances contained in the crystals.
As the whole piece of Terrigen Crystal became more and more active under the sunlight, and quickly approached the critical point, Allen realized that this thing was about to explode and turn into countless tiny powders that could not be distinguished by the naked eye.
In order to avoid unnecessary accidental injuries, he removed the metal under the crystal.
Just when this action was completed, the dazzling Terrigen Crystal suddenly exploded without warning.
Bang!
The dust in the sky emits colorful light under the refraction of the sun.
Immediately after the crystal powder penetrates into the blood vessels from the respiratory tract and skin, it begins to activate those hidden Inhuman genes.
Including Allen, Skye, Lena and Vilnalasath disguised as badges, a large amount of black sticky substance spewed out from their pores, covering themselves from head to toe.
Only Carl, an ordinary person, stood there in a daze, seemingly confused about the situation.
After all, this was the first time he had seen this primitive Inhuman awakening method, so he had no idea what was going on.
