Warlock of the Marvel Universe

Chapter 31 Fear?No, this is responsibility

So that was it, it turned out that this was what brought SHIELD to notice.Evanson immediately breathed a sigh of relief, because there were too many people doing things similar to venture capital. He was probably the only one receiving special attention because of his special power.As for Coulson's inquiry, it was probably just a matter of suspicion and there would be no substantive evidence at all. He was just here to test his own words.

Of course, if he finds anything inappropriate during the conversation, the matter may not be resolved that way.Never underestimate a professionally trained senior agent. A wrong word you say, an inadvertent movement, or even an expression or a look in your eyes may be captured by their camera-like eyes and become a spy. Reasons for suspicion.

"Then let's talk frankly, Agent Coulson." After thinking clearly about the reason, Evanson immediately turned on the deception mode, and his expression became extremely serious. "You, or SHIELD, should be doubting that I have those who can predict the future." Something like that, or maybe I used some special power to lead or participate in the disappearance of Tony Stark, right?"

"Yes, we do suspect that." Now that the words were spoken, Coulson had nothing to hide, so he admitted it generously.

"Okay, look what's over there?" Evanson suddenly pointed to one side of the room and said.

Colson looked in the direction of Evanson's finger and saw a trash can filled with a bunch of instant noodle buckets.

"That's my breakfast today and yesterday's dinner and lunch." Evanson explained to Colson, and then shouted like Dumen in the corner, "Dumen, you forgot to take out the trash, how could I There are lazy subordinates like you.”

"What do you think I would eat if I had the ability to predict the future? If I eat too much, I will get cancer, okay?" Evanson asked, "How much profit would I make from flipping Stark Industries stock? Ten thousand Or [-]? I have this ability, how about buying a lottery ticket?"

Although Evanson claimed to have made a fortune this time, he actually didn't have much money, only more than 1 US dollars.But if you win the jackpot in the U.S. lottery, tens of millions of dollars are possible.

"Look over there." Colson was about to speak when Evanson pointed to the other side of the room. "What's that?"

Coulson had no choice but to look at it again. "It's a globe, and the quality is very poor."

"I didn't ask you to judge its quality." Coulson pointed out in passing that the poor quality of the globe made Evenson very angry. "Do you think that I will be like Chaplin's satirical comedy, hugging it all day long and dreaming about conquering the world with magic?"

"It's a sharp irony. I admit that this suspicion is a bit far-fetched." Coulson was defeated by Evanson's words with a gun and a stick.

"Far-fetched? No, it's not far-fetched at all." Evanson was unreasonable. "Just like 30 years ago, a Porsche convertible was speeding down the road. If the driver was a white man, it would be okay. If the driver was a white man, it would be nothing. A black man, he will be pulled over by the police, put on the front of a car and searched.”

"Hey, man, we are not discriminating against you." Colson quickly explained, "You know, you have powers that ordinary people can't understand, and what happened this time was too coincidental. I just came to understand the situation as a matter of routine. , you have to understand me."

& nb

sp; "Yes, I completely understand." Evanson tilted his head to the side, "It's like the police at that time, who suspected that a black man driving a good car must have stolen it."

"I apologize, man, we really didn't discriminate against you, we just..." Colson had no choice but to apologize.

"It's just fear, right?" Evanson interrupted Colson and said directly.

Under Coulson's unclear eyes, Evanson continued, "I understand that humans are always afraid of powers they cannot understand. This is also why humans crazily persecuted those accused of witches in the Middle Ages. That's why Bruno was burned at the stake."

"Listen." Coulson took a deep breath and explained seriously, "In the eyes of SHIELD, there is not much difference between you, a warlock, and those mutants. Because you all have things that ordinary people cannot." With the supernatural power of understanding, once you appear, you are likely to shatter the normal and fragile worldview of ordinary people. And you are meaningless to the progress of the entire human civilization, because your power is not replicable, or has a very high level. The learning conditions cannot be universalized throughout human society. This is why when humans develop and progress, they choose science instead of magic or other powers. It is our responsibility to conceal the truth that humans should not know yet. This It is this responsibility that makes us have to be suspicious, not the so-called fear, you understand? Mr. Richter."

Coulson's words made Evanson fall silent.Because he knows very well that the development of human beings to what they are today does not rely on the black technology of a few mutants, but the most basic science.Iron Man cannot make all mankind fly freely like him, Hulk cannot make others invulnerable, and Thor, the god of thunder, cannot wait to bless mankind with good weather and double the food supply.

And it is science that allows most human beings to have enough to eat and not starve to death just because of a locust plague.Solving plagues such as the Black Death, smallpox, and cholera will not be like the end of the world just because of a flu. It is also science that increases the average human life span to nearly 20 years.

It can be said bluntly that whether it is those mutants who have gained great power due to mutation, or the magicians who live in seclusion in unknown corners, if they did not occasionally pop out to save the world, their contribution to human society would be insignificant. Infinitely close to zero.While they were saving the world, humans themselves had avoided extinction countless times by relying on universal science.

"Huh, it makes it seem like I should be the one saying sorry." Evanson whispered, "Okay, let's just let it be. I shouldn't be sarcastic, but it's really uncomfortable to be suspected for no reason."

"Apologise again, and thank you for your understanding." Seeing how open-minded the other party was, Coulson was not a stingy person. "Then, our contact this time is over. Thank you again for your cooperation."

"Wait a minute, Agent Coulson." Coulson's mission was over and he was about to stand up and leave.But just like last time, Evanson once again said, "Friends, stay."Because of the last incident, Coulson almost instinctively became highly nervous. It wouldn't be the Red Skull who was resurrected this time.

"If you don't know the whereabouts of Tony Stark and are still looking for it, I can provide some help." Unexpectedly, this time Evanson said good news.

Before Coulson could react, he heard Evanson shouting toward the door, "Habs, there's work to do."
