Magic Journey from Hogwarts

Chapter 918: The Changes of the Tree of Omniscience, Enlightened Professor Charles

Triskelion Building, headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Nick Fury stood in front of the French window, calmly watching the agents working hard below.

As one of the few people who knows the twists and turns of this world, only such control can bring him a sense of security.

Boom boom boom!

Hill knocked on the door and walked in directly, "Sir."

Nick Fury quickly adjusted himself and turned to look at her, "What is it, Agent Hill?"

"Some changes have occurred in the Tree of All-Knowing."

"What?"

"I don't know how to describe it, just watch it for yourself!"

Hill projected the image on the tablet into the air. Nick Fury looked at the two projected images and frowned unconsciously.

Both pictures show dazzling trees with lush branches and leaves. The size and shape seem to be the same, but there are some differences in comparison.

“You saw it, Fury.

The leaves of the second tree were more... yellow than those of the first tree, just like the transition from spring to autumn." Hill pursed his lips and considered his words, "This has never happened before. The professors who studied the Tree of All-Knowing agreed that this might be a sign of some kind, such as... a disaster."

"Besides disaster?"

“Death and decay.”

"Fuck!" Nick Fury complained speechlessly, "I knew those experts and professors were unreliable, but I didn't expect them to be so perfunctory."

"Fury, you let a group of people who believe in science study metaphysics, which is their blind spot in knowledge."

"This is also a helpless move." Nick Fury sat down, "When did this happen?"

"last night."

He Rui stared at the yellow leaves on the second tree, thinking about the revelation given by the tree. One guess after another quickly emerged in his mind.

At this moment, the cell phone on the table suddenly rang, interrupting his thoughts.

"Gaius?" Nick Fury glanced at the caller ID on his phone and suddenly his eyes lit up. Maybe the fortune teller could tell the answer.

"Hello! I'm Nick Fury."

"Commissioner Fury, something big has happened. It's a very, very big thing." Aaron's voice was anxious, which made Nick Fury feel nervous. It must not be a small trouble that could make him so serious.

"Just now, I had a sudden impulse while having breakfast and did a divination, and got a terrible prediction."

Nick Fury subconsciously looked at the screen projection of the Tree of All-Knowing and immediately thought of something.

Perhaps this prophecy can explain the changes in the Tree of All-Knowing.

However, he waited for several seconds, but Aaron did not say anything. "Tell me! What is the prophecy?"

"Well...I charge for divination."

"Fuck you! You can say it or not." Nick Fury hung up the phone angrily.

"Fury." Hill hesitated.

"He'll call in five seconds."

Aaron was stunned for a moment, put his phone on the table, and counted down calmly: "Six, five, four, three, two..."

On the count of two, Nick Fury called.

"I knew it would be like this." Aaron spread his hands and answered the phone.

"Fuck! How much do you want?"

"One hundred million."

"Impossible." Nick Fury said without thinking. One hundred million for a prophecy, even if it was a blind box, it was ridiculously expensive.

"The value of this prophecy is definitely far more than 100 million. I am already giving you a discount because we are friends.

In addition, I can tell you in advance that this prophecy will affect the entire world."

Hearing this, Nick Fury took a deep breath and said, "You speak first, and I will judge the value of the prophecy."

"No problem." Aaron smiled triumphantly, "The prophecy says that Apocalypse, the founder of mutants, will soon break free from his seal, and his appearance will announce the existence of mutants to the whole world.

By the way, a friendly reminder, Apocalypse is very powerful."

After the words fell, Nick Fury paused for a few seconds, "One hundred million US dollars will be deposited into your card this afternoon."

"Pleasant to work with."

"Master." Jane asked with some doubt, "Aren't you worried that he...will default on his debt?"

"Don't worry, Nick Fury, the head of the secret service, knows the difference between a full meal and a full meal.

Just wait! He’ll call again.”

"Fuck!" Nick Fury couldn't help but swear, pacing back and forth, "Now I know why the Tree of All-Knowing has changed so much.

Once everyone in the world knows about the existence of mutants, the Tree of All-Knowing will not be able to affect people's memory of mutants, and then we will be busy."

"Fury, we have to prepare early." Hill said solemnly.

"Preparations have already been made. Some crazy people in the military are eager to go to war with mutants as soon as possible. They have developed a lot of things for this purpose and set up a special department.

But these bastards only thought about how to win, and didn’t consider the consequences of the war at all.”

"The prophecy says that we will be out of trouble soon, which means that Apocalypse is not out of trouble yet. We still have time."

"But we know nothing about Apocalypse. We don't even know where he is." Nick Fury said helplessly, but his expression turned strange as soon as he finished speaking. "He actually took apart a prophecy and sold it."

Nick Fury picked up the phone speechlessly and called Aaron again.

"Anything else, Chief Fury?"

"You're asking even though you already know the answer. I need all the information about Tianqi."

"I'm sorry, I don't know that either."

"Then you should know his location, right?"

"Ah, this..." Aaron pretended to be embarrassed, "In ancient legends, Apocalypse, the ancestor of mutants, was once the ruler of Egypt. Perhaps S.H.I.E.L.D. can go to Egypt to check."

"The range is too large. We need a more accurate location." Nick Fury said seriously, "Your compass is urgently needed by SHIELD. I know you don't want to borrow it, but this is for..."

"I can borrow it," Aaron interrupted.

"What did you say?" Nick Fury asked in surprise, "Did I hear it wrong?"

"I can lend you the compass for free. I have a girlfriend who is a mutant. If Apocalypse escapes, it will definitely have some impact on her.

But let me make it clear, this is a loan, not a gift, and you have to return it to me after you use it.”

"completely fine.

Without further ado, I'll send someone to get the compass.

Do you want to come with me? We can also visit the scenery of Egypt by the way."

"I won't go, I have other things to do.

By the way, a friendly reminder, don’t act rashly after you find the seal of Apocalypse, because a random action may make the seal looser. "

"Don't worry, we are professionals."

After hanging up the phone, Nick Fury looked at Hill and said, "Agent Hill, please come over here."

"understood."

"Wait, that compass...put it off as long as possible."

Hill's face twitched, and he said in surprise, "This is inappropriate! Didn't you just promise him that you would pay it back?"

"I will definitely pay it back, but it will be a little later."

"A little bit? Are you sure it's not a billion bits?"

"Agent Hill." Nick Fury immediately frowned and said righteously, "You know the function of that compass. It can guide the user to find whatever they want.

It wouldn't be of much use to him as a fortune teller to have that thing, but it would be different if it was in the hands of SHIELD. We could save a lot of manpower, material resources and time.

He was watching us closely before and we had no chance, but now he has given us the opportunity.

Tell me you won’t miss this opportunity.”

Hill didn't know whether to laugh or cry. To be honest, she was mentally prepared, but Nick Fury's shameless and self-righteous attitude also made her a little defenseless.

"Fury, doing this may affect Gaius's impression of SHIELD."

"Forget it! SHIELD has never been good to him."

......

On the other side, Aaron handed Captain Jack's compass to Jane.

"If the SHIELD people come, leave it to them."

"Okay, Master.

But..." Jane said hesitantly, "Master, are you just going to give it to them? What if they don't return it?"

"Be more confident and remove the 'what if'. That old bastard Nick Fury will definitely not return it.

He has a bottom line, but he has no moral integrity." Aaron said very confidently, "But it's not up to him to decide whether to return it or not. My things will come back to me as long as I want them, even at the end of the universe."

"I see."

"Okay, the warning has been made, I have to go get the piano."

Aaron was about to walk out the door when a ball of fire suddenly appeared in the air.

Fox let out a high-pitched cry, flew out of the flames, and landed on a branch that belonged only to him.

"Why at this time?" Aaron frowned slightly, not thinking that Fox's coming here was a coincidence.

"What happened?"

"Master, Jean had a nightmare last night." Fox said immediately, "She dreamed of the end of the world. The dream was so real that the energy in her body was a little out of control."

"Dream? The end of the world?" Aaron touched his chin, "Can you be more specific?"

"Master, in her dream I saw a strange human with dark blue skin wearing ancient armor. He stood on top of a pyramid, watching the flames burn everything."

"Pyramid?" Aaron's voice rose unconsciously. The iconic building of the pyramid reminded him of many things, but combined with other scenes in the dream, the most relevant to the current reality are only Egypt and the mutant ancestor Apocalypse.

“Interesting.” Hela smiled faintly, “I really want to get to know this person.”

"Please let me worry less, Your Highness Hela."

"I just said that casually. I won't cause you any trouble until my divine power is fully restored.

After all, I don’t want to be found by Odin yet.”

"What a troubled time!" Aaron sighed dully and continued to ask: "Qin didn't cause any impact, right?"

"It only caused a minor shock to the school, but Professor X was able to control the situation."

"You go back first, I'll be there soon."

Fox blinked, turned into flames and dissipated.

Aaron went outside to get the motorcycle, turned on the flight mode, and headed into the sky.

......

Westchester.

Coming to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters again, Aaron was no longer as nervous as he had been for the first time. He drove his motorcycle into the campus in a very familiar manner.

At this time, Fox also flew over, flapping his wings to lead Aaron.

A few minutes later, he came to Qin, who was sitting alone under a tree reading a book by the lake.

Aaron walked forward, his shadow covering the book. When Qin looked up, she saw a familiar smiling face. "Did you miss me?"

Qin blushed, "Why are you here?"

"Who asked you to be here!" Aaron spread his hands helplessly. If his girlfriend wasn't here, he wouldn't have come to the mutant school for nothing.

"So, you came to see me?"

"Not exactly. I won't disturb your campus life, but life is more than just campus." Aaron pulled Qin up from under the tree. "You can't stay on campus all the time."

Qin looked at him thoughtfully, "You want to take me out?"

"No way? It shouldn't be that difficult to ask Professor Charles to approve a month's vacation for you!

Although he is an old man, he was young once and will understand my thoughts. "

"But..."

"Don't say but. I finally made up my mind to come to you. Wouldn't it be too cruel to reject me?"

Qin felt sweet in her heart and nodded shyly, "Okay!"

The goal was achieved, and Aaron finally felt relieved.

It would be good if Qin agreed. As long as she agreed, the matter would be half successful.

Aaron immediately dragged Qin to the teaching building and went all the way to the principal's office.

Charles was drinking tea. When he saw the two people suddenly come in, he was stunned for a moment and then smiled and said, "Knock on the door before you come in next time."

"Sorry, Professor." Qin apologized awkwardly.

Aaron was more casual and got straight to the point, "Professor Charles, I hope you can grant Qin a month's vacation."

Charles glanced at their clasped hands and immediately understood, "No problem."

"Thank you, Professor."

"But I also have a small request." Charles looked at Qin seriously, "Be careful and don't kill anyone."

"Hmm?" Aaron's pupils dilated slightly and he silently gave Charles a thumbs up.

It is my blessing that she has such an open-minded principal like you!

Qin blushed, "Professor, you... must have misunderstood something."

"Yes, that's right, it was a misunderstanding.

We are just living together for a while, and we have no plans to have children yet." Aaron said seriously, and then he felt a pain in his foot, and then he noticed Qin's warning eyes.

"I can understand the feelings of young people, but you should not take the advice of experienced people lightly."

Professor Charles straightforwardly approved a one-month vacation for Qin. Qin didn't know how to explain it, so she was dragged out of the office by Aaron in a daze.

"It's all your fault." Qin covered her face in embarrassment, "The professor misunderstood me."

"You're obviously thinking too much." Aaron didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Go pack your things first! I'll wait for you outside."
