The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 154 The League of Gentlemen (Please collect and recommend)

It is not the first time for Steve to come to Europe. As early as 1809, he was commissioned by the US federal government to come to Europe to investigate a transnational terrorist attack.At that time, the United States was more of a bystander to learn about the series of terrorist attacks in Europe.At that time (including the time point of the story), the United States did not have the status of the world's policeman, nor did it have the background of a superpower after World War II. At best, it was just a marginal country. Although it was a big country, Europe looked down on them at all.So the United States does not mean to be overly involved. Steve is equivalent to an investigator or intelligence collector.

As a result, by mistake, Steve tracked down the Spectre, and then joined Cottman and his party who were secretly commissioned by the British Empire to investigate.So after going back and forth, Steve joined Kottman and the others to investigate the Specter Party.

Members of the investigative team at the time were:
Legendary adventurer, undead——Alan Kottman;
The captain of the Nautilus——Captain Nemo, the Nautilus is a giant submarine that surpasses contemporary technology for decades, and its various black technologies are jaw-dropping.The drive of the ship is completely supplied by electricity, and the electricity is obtained by extracting sodium from seawater, mixing sodium with mercury to form an alloy used to replace the zinc element in the Bunsen battery unit, and then converting it into electricity, which is stored in the battery inside.

Doctor Incarnate—Hyde, a schizophrenic scientific lunatic, doctor, has developed a transformation potion that can transform into a monster with infinite strength.

The Vampire Queen – Mina Harker, this one needs no introduction.

Invisible man - Schina, the ability is just like the name, it is invisible.

The beautiful man who lives forever - Dorian Gray, has the ability to never die, but he is afraid of seeing his own portrait.

They call themselves the League of Gentlemen, and only Steve is a normal guy.

They gradually discovered the conspiracy of the Specter Party. The Specter Party wants to provoke wars among countries, and then sell arms to countries for profit, and finally achieve the goal of controlling the world.But in the later stage, Dorian Gray betrayed them and copied their respective abilities scientifically.

In the end, Cottman took the most dangerous adventure. They found the old lair of the Specter, went straight to Huanglong to destroy this evil organization, and finally blew up all kinds of high-tech weapons collected by the Specter.

It was also in this operation that Cottman 'sacrificed'.In addition to Cottman, Dorian Gray was sealed in the portrait, and the invisible man Schina finally died of subsequent complications a year after the mission ended because of extensive burns all over his body.

The others also went their separate ways, and it was not until today that Steve met with everyone from the League of Gentlemen again.So it was inevitable that I was a little excited, so that I kind of forgot that there was a beautiful woman by my side.It was the old gentleman Cottman who was more careful, and he deliberately pulled Diana into their conversation during the conversation.

"Steve, is this beautiful lady...?"

"Oh, let me introduce you, this is..." Steve woke up from his excitement at this moment, and hurriedly introduced Diana to everyone.This is the reason why Mina wanted to break up with Steve in the first place. He has the common problem of all men in this era, machismo.Although he likes Diana very much, he still unknowingly regards Diana as his accessory. This is not because of ability, but because of gender.

It's a pity that Diana didn't like him at all.She is a dignified Amazon princess and a natural feminist. She could understand that Steve ignored her because of old friends reunion.But now she doesn't need Steve to introduce herself. As a soldier, she is not so timid that she can't even say her own name.

So Diana interrupted Steve directly and started introducing herself. "My name is Diana Prince, I am an Amazon female warrior from Paradise Island!"

Steve breathed a sigh of relief, at least Diana did not draw out her long sword and say that she is the daughter of Queen Hippolyta, which has made great progress.

The others looked at each other in blank dismay, because they had never heard of Paradise Island.

"Paradise Island? Amazon? Er... I have been to many places in my life and met many peoples, but I am sorry for being rude, I have never heard of these two names." Cottman has been adventuring all over the world all his life, It can be said that the footprints are all over the world, and places or nations that have never been heard are really very rare.

Diana was about to explain, but Steve interrupted.

"This is very complicated to say, and it's... how to put it, unbelievable..." Diana is different from ordinary people. Many things that she takes for granted are not so true to others. The scene turned into a hundred thousand whys, and Steve decided to explain this to others according to his own understanding.

But even so, after listening to Steve's narration, the others were still stunned, and even Mina, who had always been full of resentment, looked over in surprise.

After a while, Dr. Incarnation asked, "Is this true? I mean, are the Amazons and the gods of Olympus real?"

Steve made a helpless expression. "Amazon? That's true. I know it's hard to believe, but it's true. I saw a group of female warriors riding horses with bows and arrows and killing a group of Germans on the beach. As for Olympians The gods..."

"Olympus is real!" Diana resented Steve questioning her race's history and beliefs. "Paradise Island is the sanctuary that Zeus bestowed on Amazon! And our enemy is Ares, God of War!"

Diana seemed very serious, and the others were well-bred gentlemen, even if they didn't believe it in their hearts, they wouldn't show it.

Cottman even took out a bunch of questions about Greek mythology to discuss with Diana, which made Diana very comfortable. At least Cottman was much stronger than Steve's disapproval.Although the others didn't believe it, Diana's erudition also made them very interested, and even Mina couldn't help talking with Diana.

Just as they were talking, a nun walked in.

The nun was dressed strangely, although the overall religious clothing was still dominated by black, with a white collar and hat brim.But the details are quite different from the traditional nuns. First of all, this nun's dress is very close-fitting, even the cuffs are shrunk, and it even feels a bit tight. It highlights the nun's lines and is very suitable for sports. It looks very neat.Secondly, the nun's hood and cloak were so long that they almost dragged to the ground. At the same time, the cloak also wrapped the nun's whole body, only her face was exposed, and even her hands were tightly hidden.

"Everyone, Pastor Dalton invites you." The nun didn't greet them after entering, and asked them to follow her very directly.

……

A group of people followed the nuns to the back of the chapel, where there was a small altar, and an old priest was doing the aftermath of the ceremony.

After seeing Steve and his party, the old pastor did not stop what he was doing, but asked the nun to help him deal with the aftermath as soon as possible.

"Catherine, help me clean up."

With the help of Sister Catherine, they quickly put the sacred objects used for the ceremony into the storage box.Sister Catherine then removed the holy relics alone.

"Okay, everyone seems to have covered the past, let's get down to business."

After speaking, Pastor Dalton took out a letter of commission issued by King George V from a small hidden compartment on the altar, and handed it to Cottman.

"Before that, you must sign a legally binding power of attorney, and we need you to keep it strictly confidential."
