The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 418 Secret

This silver staff is about two meters long, the lower half is a round stick, and only half a meter at the top becomes flat, with layers of delicate patterns imprinted on it, just like a mysterious The magic circle, through the guidance of special magic, stimulates the anger in the human body to form a powerful force.

Because of his experience in using Asgardian weapons, Ling Xiao's spiritual consciousness quickly branded himself on the core of the violent staff, and he even saw all the circles engraved on the staff. After writing it down thoroughly, he has a feeling that as long as he can master this magic circle, he can actually arouse people's anger and generate powerful power without using the violent staff. Of course, this requires other things.

Ling Xiao opened his eyes, watching Coulson and his group carefully staring at him, as if he would lose control in the next moment, and Ward even put on his pistol quietly, only Ling Xiao moved slightly, He'll kill him with an excuse.

"Okay, Phil, you can call Fury and see what he plans to do with this staff." Ling Xiao gently waved the staff in his hand, after all it was made of Asgard's rare metal It's done, and it's pretty easy to use.

Looking at the relieved crowd, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smiled, and said, "How about it, does any of you plan to try it?"

"Ling, don't make such a joke." Coulson glared at Ling Xiao angrily, and started to make a phone call. There were so many people lying on the scene, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead. The scepter in Ling Xiao's hand.

Not long after, Coulson and Melinda flew to a secret base of S.H.I.E.L.D. with the scepter of rage, while Ling Xiao rushed back to London to accept the queen's authorization. Xun, Skye, Ward, Fitz and Simmons will all be witnesses.

In fact, in the UK, it is not that difficult to be awarded honors. Generally, the list of recipients of honors is announced twice a year—the monarch’s birthday and New Year’s Day, and each time there are about 1000 people, respectively, by the public and the government. and nominations.

In Britain, the Order of the Empire is coveted by many.Even in modern Britain, no matter how beautiful and rich a person is, without the title of Lord or Sir, he is still an ordinary person without status and cannot enter the upper-class social circle.But sometimes those who receive honors will also refuse to accept honors. In 2003, British newspapers published a list of all those who had refused to be canonized.

The titles of the earliest nobles have depreciated more and more in these years. The titles of nobles were once directly linked to land property rights. Those with higher titles had more land under their names, and those with smaller titles naturally had less land.

In order to increase the income of the royal family, the British kings of later generations started buying and selling titles. The number of people with titles increased in the UK, and the value of titles gradually declined.

After the "Glorious Revolution", the previous parliamentary reforms in the hundreds of years aimed to reduce the power of the nobility. The privileges of the nobility have been reduced to this day, and the title of the nobility is about equal to the honorary title conferred by the king.In China, it is just a pennant.

It can also be seen from this that even if the Knights of the Round Table win over Ling Xiao, the strength of the win is extremely limited, and it has not even received a strong rebound from S.H.I.E.L.D.But if you think about it, a power can only rely on its own powerful power in the end. Even if it is to win over others, it must check out the strength and character of the other party, so as not to win back a greedy jackal in the end. The gain outweighs the loss.

This year happened to coincide with the Queen's birthday on June 6. In the crowded and lively ceremony at Buckingham Palace, Ling Xiao accepted the Queen personally presided over the honor ceremony. During the ceremony, the Queen held a symbolic sword and tapped Ling Xiao's shoulder, and then it was announced that he had received the title of Lord of Honor from the United Kingdom.

Except for the first 20 people who were awarded honors by the Queen herself, Prince Charles was responsible for all the others.After all, the queen is old, and it is impossible to live and give honors to 1000 people one by one, which is not realistic.

In the entire Buckingham Palace, Ling Xiao felt that his spiritual consciousness had been greatly restricted. There was a powerful invisible barrier here, and the entire Buckingham Palace was protected in the middle, and within the barrier, there were several powerful auras faintly Lurking, if he guessed correctly, these were the Knights of the Round Table.

After accepting the award, Ling Xiao saw Budorak again. As the last knight of the round table, he was not very old, and he looked less than 30 years old.

But she was not the only one who appeared in front of Ling Xiao at this time, there was also a young woman standing aside, who seemed to be waiting for Ling Xiao.

"Hello, Mr. Ling, I'm really sorry that I didn't give you special treatment." Budorak apologized on his face. According to what Ling Xiao and Thor did, it would not be too much to make them a hereditary nobleman. But in this way, it will inevitably attract the attention of various forces, and some gains outweigh the losses.

"Nothing, having a title of Lord of Honor is enough for me." Ling Xiao's face was calm, just such a title of Lord of Honor was indeed enough for him, so It not only ensures that he can have a certain close relationship with the Knights of the Round Table, but also maintains a certain distance between the two parties. It is not a good thing for him to tie the two parties too deeply.

Seeing that Ling Xiao really didn't care, Budorak felt a little surprised, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. If he would soon put all this in his heart, he said to Ling Xiao: "Mr. Ling, This is Elizabeth, she is currently working for MI[-], if you have any troubles, you can contact her, and she will help you with some dredging."

"Mr. Ling, this is my business card with my contact information on it." As soon as Budorak finished speaking, Elizabeth handed over her business card.

Ling Xiao took Elizabeth's business card, nodded slightly, and said very politely: "Then I will trouble you."

"Well, let's talk about it. I have other things to do here. Mr. Ling, I'll see you when I have a chance." Seeing that the matter was finished, Budorak left voluntarily.

When Budorak left, Ling Xiao walked out and said, "Elizabeth, MI[-]'s agent is not your only identity, is it?"

"Yes, Mr. Ling." Elizabeth nodded and said, "I am not only an agent of MI[-], but also a reserve knight of the Knights of the Round Table, a retinue knight under the command of Knight Tristan. The matter that comes, will be dealt with exclusively by me."

Knight Tristan refers to Budorak. Elizabeth is actually Budorak's direct subordinate, and Ling Xiao is the task assigned to her.

"Hmm!" Ling Xiao nodded lightly. It was not beyond his expectation that Elizabeth was so frank. I believe Budorak also understood that Elizabeth's identity could not arouse Ling Xiao's suspicion, so he simply said it directly.

What Ling Xiao didn't know was that Elizabeth's full name was Elizabeth Betsy Budorak, and she was Budorak's biological sister.

After a brief understanding with Elizabeth, the two separated. Ling Xiao still had Skye, Fitz, Simmons and others who needed to be entertained.

The night has shrouded the whole of London, and the nightlife in London has just begun.

In the internal bar of the Hilton Hotel, Ward left with the beautiful woman he just hooked up with. Fitz and Simmons kept twisting their bodies on the dance floor, while Ling Xiao was sitting quietly Drinking at the bar, I don't know when Skye has come over.

"Congratulations on your honorary title." Skye raised his glass to congratulate Ling Xiao, and at the same time said: "Thank you for your hospitality, but I am worried that I will get used to the turndown service and put a small mint on the pillow, so The treatment of a high-end hotel!"

Looking at the undisguised provocativeness in Skye's eyes, Ling Xiao smiled lightly and said, "I won't tell Coulson what happened before, no matter what you are secretly planning, as long as it doesn't involve me , I will not interfere, so please rest assured that I will not be your interference."

"We deserve a wonderful night, especially you." Skye gently brushed Ling Xiao's wrist as if he didn't hear what Ling Xiao said.

Skye was a bit young and charming. Although it looked a little touching, Ling Xiao couldn't help but shook his head slightly, and said, "Does everything matter to you?"

"No, only those things I care about." Skye laughed at himself, and then said: "Remember, my shoulders are always free."
