Druid's Marvel Travels

Chapter 182 The Guardian of Nature (814 for subscription)
The exchange of interests between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the U.S. government and military was barely maintained because of the unexpected intervention of Oakes in the presidential election.

With the invasion of Loki, the accident of the Pegasus project, the exposure of SHIELD's true intentions and the tragedy of the New York War, the relationship between SHIELD and the US government has become much worse than before.

If it weren't for the fact that Nick Fury was the initiator of the Avengers project, and it was actually the World Security Council that finally ordered the launch of the nuclear bomb, the US government was even prepared to limit the privileges of S.H.I.E.L.D. in its homeland.

In fact, the council was planning to push this matter to Nick Fury and kill him by the way, and even for this they tried to instigate Agent Hill and asked her to provide testimony against Nick Fury.

However, after Agent Hill played tricks on them, he showed the council's call recordings.

That's why Nick Fury was able to return to his post in just one month.

The restart of the Tianma project was actually ordered by the council.

But the Avengers plan was also approved by them, although it was later abolished.

In short, the existence of the council is still indispensable. Fortunately, with the existence of Oakes and the Benevolent Society, the casualties of the people in the Battle of New York were actually much smaller than the expected number.

Therefore, under the game of interests of all parties, this matter finally ended with Gideon Malik personally ordered to take the blame and resign——

In the end, it's all the aliens' fault.

However, Nick Fury took the opportunity to stuff Pierce, his "own man", into the vacant seat on the council.

Oakes, who was personally invited by Thor to go to Asgard, can be said to be the person who has the most effective information about aliens.

At the same time, another ability of Oakes, the powerful healing ability that can restore the dying Coulson in just a few seconds, made everyone agree with the tone of his actions——

"Thank you Coulson."

Nick Fury, the bitch, started to play the emotional card:
"But after he came out of the hospital, you had already gone to Asgard, and he didn't have time to thank you in person."

"Where is he now?"

Oakes raised his eyebrows. This "model of an American agent" was saved from death, so so many weird things shouldn't happen to him.

"His outstanding performance allowed him to lead an elite field team alone, with Melinda as his partner."

There was a smile on Nick Fury's face, Oakes is a guy with a lot of emotion:
"I have to say that Melinda recovered quickly after working here with you, and now she is active again as a field agent.

There are still many threats in the world, and mortal agents must stare at places that superheroes can't care about. "

"Okay, when they are on vacation, I can invite them to barbecue and oxygen bar in the small rainforest."

Oakes crossed his legs, and Skool and Hati just tilted their heads from left to right and stared at Nick Fury, which made him gulp.

"Asgard will not become a threat for the time being. At least I have the title of 'Sage of the Oak Tree' in Asgard, common to the Nine Realms, and I am also their royal advisor."

Oakes spread his hands:
"And I did Odin a huge favor by inviting his eldest son to a party in Las Vegas."

"Las Vegas?"

Nick Fury was taken aback:
"Does Thor like to party? I thought he only liked fist-to-hand duels."

"No, it's his brother."

Oakes showed a gloating smile:

"Odin's true eldest son, Thor's elder brother, Baldr, the God of Light, I helped Odin a lot, and I saved this Badr Odinson from the dying state."

"what!"

Nick Fury can't sit still anymore, Odin has another son?Or the eldest son?

He thought of the throne of Asgard almost immediately...

"So, they shouldn't have time to talk to us now?"

Nick Fury took a deep breath and calmed down.

"This is the case for the time being, so... what are you going to do?"

Oakes waved his hand:
"Don't talk to me about confidentiality, division management and other nonsense, I am such a good person, it is really disappointing to tell me these things that I don't know how to share——

Maybe I won't share anymore. "

"...Because of the events in New York, we have discovered many potential threats that could have been avoided if detected in advance."

Nick Fury changed his sitting position and squeezed his chin with one hand:
"That's why I persuaded the World Security Council to thoroughly improve threat analysis technology, so that threats can be detected before they appear, so that they can quickly deal with them or make emergency plans.

We cannot fall behind every time, we must take the initiative. "

"You proposed?"

Oakes raised his eyebrows:
"Is it just threat analysis?"

"...Of course there is a follow-up, but the implementation plan has not really been determined yet."

Nick Fury was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly:
"SHIELD's vision of the world is realistic, not idealized.

This matter was planned beforehand, but it wasn't until what happened in New York that we raised it to the highest priority. "

Oakes nodded slowly, this was the beginning of the "insight plan".

"'Trust no one,' that's the way you go about it, so I'm sure that's not the whole story, and you guys have a plan to do it."

Oakes looked at Nick Fury's expressionless face, and snorted seemingly unintentionally:
"Since you can't get rid of this habit, will you trust your subordinates, your boss, your...old friends, and even yourself?"

"...Captain hasn't moved on from the past, even with Ms. Carter by his side."

Nick Fury didn't answer Oakes' question, he mentioned another thing:

"You just said that you rescued Sol's brother Badr from the dying state, so is there anything you can do about it from Ms. Carter?"

After a pause, Nick Fury calmly squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth:

"This old man is the only person I can fully trust right now."

"...I am a Druid, my strength comes from nature, and I cannot do things that violate the laws of nature, such as prolonging my lifespan."

Oakes tapped five fingers on the armrest of the rattan chair unconsciously with one hand, and propped his chin with the other hand:

"But now I can get Ms. Carter out of the little rainforest, and Steve will pick her up and take her to their own house.

She still has some time, but whether she will help you or not is up to her. "

Nick Fury nodded silently and took a long breath:

"The last thing, an invisible behemoth appeared on the east coast of New York——

If I didn't know that you were returning to Earth at this time, I would have approved the missile launch order. "

"That's the new headquarters of the Benevolent Society, my ark, the reward Odin gave me."

Oakes never thought that he could hide from S.H.I.E.L.D., the spirit ship can be invisible optically and infraredly, but it cannot be invisible by radar for the time being. Tony is working on a transformation plan in this regard.

"……understood."

Nick Fury stood up, turned and walked out:

"Does it have a name? It needs to be recorded and identified."

"The Guardian of Nature."

Oakes showed a smile on his face. Now that it is in his hands, even the nature of the magic power has changed, so naturally he needs a new name.

"After the transformation is completed, it will be suspended over the high seas for a long time, and it has no weapon system."

Seeing Nick Fury disappearing at the door, Oakes looked up at the sky.

The Nature's Guardian has no weapons, but it is a powerful balanced spell amplifier!
"Insight into the aircraft carrier...huh!"
