The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

As if it were pre-planned, Nick Fury delivered this passage very smoothly.

Nick Fury knew, of course, that $50 was a pitiful amount. Although S.H.I.E.L.D. had some money, it certainly couldn't offer excessively high salaries. They couldn't be like the CEOs of large corporations, earning tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars a year.

Their S.H.I.E.L.D. is a military organization, not a giant corporation or a welfare institution.

$50 is already a reasonable price he could offer; even his salary as a bureau chief doesn't come close to that.

Therefore, in order to strengthen his persuasiveness, he offered these additional conditions. He knew very well that for capable people, cleaning up the mess was what ordinary people should do, and these big shots mostly didn't like him cleaning up the mess.

He believed that as long as he expressed his sincerity, the other party would most likely be moved.

“Mr. Fury, I must say, you have indeed considered things very carefully.”

Bai Zhi initially agreed with Nick Fury's strategy. To be honest, the other party's sincerity was genuine. If it were just her coming to this world, she might actually join the organization, get a position, and it would be easier to intervene in the plot.

However, since he brought Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan here, and now that Gu Yi is also acting as his bodyguard, it's naturally impossible for him to do that.

"I bet there will be a but."

Nick Fury replied calmly that he never expected to resolve everything in the first round of communication. In fact, if everything were resolved in the first round, he would have more doubts.

"But before I say 'but,' can I say something else?"

“Of course, Mr. Fury, you may say so.”

Bai Zhi nodded.

“Alright!” Nick Fury cleared his throat. “You are all capable people, and I believe you all know that from time to time, some terrible beings appear on Earth, either life forms from other realms or people who engage in antisocial behavior after acquiring some power.”

"Our organization's main responsibility at present is to research, investigate, and control these situations. However, compared to those who possess power, the power of ordinary people like us is far too weak. This planet needs people with similar power to protect it."

"This is also why I came up with the idea of ​​creating the Avengers, to declare war on those dangerous enemies, defeat them, and prevent civilians from suffering more harm."

"Therefore, I sincerely invite you all to join the Avengers and fight for a better tomorrow, and for humanity!"

"clap clap"

After listening, Bai Zhi clapped her hands. "Mr. Fury, what you said is very good, but you may have misunderstood something."

"whats the matter?"

Seeing the smile on Jing Yuan's face, and seeing that even the usually cold Fu Xuan's lips were now slightly upturned.

Even Tony Stark covered his mouth, looking like he wanted to laugh but was trying hard to hold it in.

This gave him a slightly uneasy feeling.

"So... is it possible that I, General Jingyuan, and Lord Fuxuan are not from Earth? If we are not from Earth, why should we fight for Earth and humanity?"

“Mr. Fury, you misjudged the situation from the very beginning.”

"Are you aliens?"

Nick Fury was truly shocked. He had never expected this outcome, because before coming here, he had collected relevant information, including hospital surveillance footage and some video footage of Stark Tower.

He noticed that Jing Yuan, Fu Xuan, and Bai Zhi were all dressed in the style of ancient Chinese costumes, making them look like users of supernatural powers from the mysterious East, completely incompatible with aliens.

“That’s right, we are indeed aliens, Mr. Fury, and the two people next to me are not ordinary aliens.”

Bai Zhi said in a slightly teasing tone.

"First, there is Fu Xuan, the chief diviner of our Luofu Immortal Ship, who is responsible for predicting the future. If nothing unexpected happens, he will become the future General of Luofu."

“That’s right, I am destined to be a general in the future!” Fu Xuan raised her head slightly to show her attitude, which made Jing Yuan next to her smile and shake his head.

"As for the person next to him, that is our General Jingyuan, the supreme ruler of the Luofu Immortal Ship, who governs a population of hundreds of billions."

"A hundred billion?!" Even though Nick Fury was somewhat prepared, he was still taken aback by this number.

To put that into perspective, ten Earths combined wouldn't have that many people.

Moreover, this population of hundreds of billions is under a unified regime, which is incomparable to anything on Earth.

75. Do you crave power?

"Now, Mr. Nick Fury, are you still going to recruit us?"

Bai Zhi smiled and said.

Nick Fury opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. No matter how many contingency plans he had, he was powerless in the face of this situation.

Because this General Jingyuan didn't seem like the kind of reckless brute; on the contrary, he gave the impression of a cunning, smiling tiger.

If such a person doesn't have much power, it's not impossible to persuade them to come over. But the other party happens to be the leader of hundreds of billions of people. Even if the other party agrees, our small S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't have the money to hire them.

Rather than worrying about not being able to hire them, we should be more concerned about whether this Celestial Ship civilization will attack Earth.

As for the veracity of what the other party said, although he had doubts, after careful consideration, he realized that the other party had no motive to tell such an outrageous lie.

Because of their strength, they can fly so fast and have mastered what appears to be teleportation technology. Why would they need to use such outrageous lies to deceive him?

There is neither the motivation nor the need for it.

"So... what brings you all here?"

After holding it in for a long time, Nick Fury finally managed to utter these words: such an important leader of an organization, coming to a mere planet like Earth, couldn't possibly say he's here for tourism.

"Hmm... it's a secret, but I won't hurt Earthlings, after all, we look so similar."

Bai Zhi blinked. In fact, she didn't know what the main storyline of coming to this world was, because the system hadn't given her any hints at all.

This is also something she cares about a lot. After all, the Marvel storyline is so long. Does she have to stay here for several years?

Although a few years is just a blink of an eye for long-lived beings like Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan, if they don't go back soon, they might not even see the train crew arrive in Luofu.

"But speaking of which, Mr. Fury, do you crave power?"

Bai Zhi suddenly asked the bureau chief, who was covered in braised pork.

"Uh?"

Nick Fury looked completely bewildered.

"Just tell me if you crave power."

Bai Zhi continued to ask.

Although it felt strange, Nick Fury nodded cautiously. "I do crave power. If I had power, I could maintain more world peace."

He knew very well that it would be a lie for the king of spies to say he didn't crave power, and it might even offend the other party. So he might as well be honest and admit it.

Anyway, wanting power isn't something to be ashamed of.

"Snapped"

Bai Zhi snapped her fingers. "That's good. So, Mr. Fury, would you mind learning magic? You can borrow my power; the cost is very low. Come on, sign a contract with me and become a magical girl... oops, I mean, a magical agent."

The Ancient One glanced helplessly at Bai Zhi. Strictly speaking, the power of magic cannot be allowed to flow out so recklessly, as it could easily cause chaos in the human world, and there's always the possibility of something going wrong, like borrowing power from some evil demon god and causing a huge uproar in the world.

This kind of thing happened many times before the world entered the modern era.

But this time, she decided to let things take their course. She wanted to see what the world would become if Bai Zhi did whatever she wanted.

If things really get out of control, she can use the Time Stone to go back in time.

Although she cannot see the future that has already changed, the power of looking back still exists, which is why she dared to make the decision.

"Wait, I need to sign a contract, let me do it!"

Tony Stark, standing nearby, spoke up before the somewhat bewildered Nick Fury.

He had long coveted the special and powerful force of magic, and naturally wouldn't let such an opportunity pass him by.

"Of course you have no problem either, but... Ancient One, can you do something for me? Can you design a magical artifact that borrows power from me and then transforms my power into armor or other clothing?"

Bai Zhi walked to Gu Yi's side and lowered her voice to say that just now, she suddenly had a very bold idea.

However, this bold idea may require some technical support, and it is clear that in terms of magic, the Ancient One is the most outstanding among everyone present. Who else could we ask but her?

Upon hearing this, Gu Yi gave Bai Zhi a strange look. "You mean magical girls, right?"

"Oh, do you watch magical girl anime too?"

Bai Zhi was quite surprised that Gu Yi, who looked like a virtuous monk, would watch magical girls; this was a bit odd.

Is this what they call "gap moe" (cuteness born from contrast)?

"As the Sorcerer Supreme, it is a basic requirement to know a lot about the events, and I also go online, so I have naturally watched Magical Girl."

Gu Yi, unaware of Bai Zhi's thoughts, offered a brief explanation.

"Could you design a transformation wand based on this?"

Bai Zhi quickly pressed for details, not for any other reason than to see what Tony Stark and Nick Fury would look like when they transformed.

"Are you sure you want to turn them into that kind of thing? Isn't it a bit... too perverse?"

The Ancient One said with a hint of helplessness that she had read history and therefore held great respect for the heroes who had made great efforts in defeating Thanos.

She truly found it hard to imagine what it would be like if Tony Stark used a magic wand to transform.

Will it be too offensive to look at?

“I’m just asking. We don’t necessarily have to turn them into that kind of people, do we? The choice is theirs. It’s just a matter of whether the technology exists.”

"Besides, the transformation wand can transform you into a magical girl, or you can transform into other characters like Armor Heroes or Kamen Riders."

"Of course there is. The magic of energy armor is a technology with extremely high limits. I can give you a high-level magic that I have researched. It can transform magical power into sturdy armor and weapons, providing power to the wearer."

The Ancient One sighed, but still said it: "Go ahead and do it. History is already in such a mess, it wouldn't be surprising if another magical girl or Kamen Rider Iron Man came out."

"Then it's happily decided!"

Bai Zhi's face immediately lit up with a smile. If she could take this kind of advanced magic back to the Star Iron World, or even more worlds, and use it, wouldn't she be a wholesaler of humanoid magical girls?

The only problem is... whether it can be used in other worlds.

Shaking her head, Bai Zhi decided to stop thinking about the problem. Even if it couldn't be used in other worlds, it was still a good option as long as it could be used in this world.

76 Angelica dahurica: I will turn everything around!

"Miss Baizhi, what exactly is this magic you're talking about?"

Nick Fury keenly grasped the key point in Bai Zhi's words and pressed for an answer.

If he understood correctly, the other party meant to teach them how to use that magical power.

He certainly wouldn't want to let such an opportunity slip by. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s main problem is the lack of high-end combat power and the support of such mysterious forces.

"It's the kind of power you're imagining; it can teleport and use mysterious powers to attack people."

Bai Zhi stretched out her hand, and a fireball appeared within it, raising the temperature of the entire room by several degrees.

Upon seeing the fireball, Nick Fury and Tony Stark's eyes lit up; this was the power they had been seeking.

"Can this kind of power really be acquired through learning?"

Nick Fury asked quickly.

"Yes, that's right. The power of magic can indeed be acquired through learning. You can borrow power from me to use these spells."

"I want to borrow your power..." Nick Fury frowned. As an agent, he instantly deduced some issues from Bai Zhi's words.

Since it's a loan, it must be repaid. But how should it be repaid?

"So, is there any cost to using magic?"

“Very clever, Mr. Fury. As expected of you. Of course, the use of magic comes at a price. After all, you have to pay to get something in return. When you use electricity, you have to pay the power plant for the electricity, don’t you?”

“That’s only natural.” Nick Fury and Tony Stark both nodded; they didn’t believe that such mysterious power could be obtained for free.

Only an idiot would think that.
