Magic Journey from Hogwarts

"Fury sent the three of us here for a reason." Hill sighed, "Natasha, what next? The story can't end here, right?"

"The ancient Egyptians believed the words of the prophet, and they also determined that En Sabah Nur, or Apocalypse, was a false god, because a true god would never bring exploitation and oppression to his people."

“But even then, they have no power to fight back.

Apocalypse is so strong that even all the people in Egypt combined would not be his match.

They begged the prophet for help, and the prophet generously told them how to defeat Apocalypse.

During the time Apocalypse replaces his body, he will fall into a short sleep, with his body in an undefended state, and can be easily killed with a knife.

In addition, the prophet also told them the ability of the next body that Apocalypse would change into, which is its powerful self-healing ability.

Once the apocalypse succeeds, it will mean that his rule will be extended almost indefinitely, and they and even their descendants will always live in dire straits and will never be able to turn things around."

“This news has made up the minds of those who were hesitant.

They set up traps in the pyramid in advance and launched a rebellion when the Apocalypse ceremony was being held and the pyramid was at its most vulnerable.

They won the battle, and Apocalypse and his four horsemen sank into ruins as the pyramid collapsed, and their rule came to an end. "

"Is this the end?" Hill asked. "No more information? Like who the prophet is?"

"No more." Natasha said with some regret, "Like the prophets in other stories, the prophet occupies a very small space in this story.

And even if we knew who the prophet was, what would be the use? People who lived thousands of years ago would have long since turned to dust."

"The ancient Egyptians successfully overthrew Apocalypse's rule, but they did not succeed completely, leaving the problem to us." Barton said speechlessly, "We don't have a prophet to help us!"

“But we also don’t have an enemy like Apocalypse.

We have to find a way to strengthen the seal. Even if we can't strengthen it, we can't let others destroy it." Hill said seriously, and then she frowned, "Since he has interpreted the contents of the stone tablet, why do we still need to hold this sacrificial ceremony? You don't really think that Tianqi will reward him after he escapes, right?"

"That's the gap in intelligence." Natasha smiled, "He didn't know about Aaron's prophecy, he just thought that Apocalypse had died thousands of years ago.

They simply thought of a way to maximize the benefits and created a church that honored En Shaba Nur with this pyramid as the center.

They had only hired a few dozen people, and the business was just starting, and we came here.”

Patton and Hill smiled speechlessly, "They are lucky, and we are lucky too."

The temporary base was quickly built. Patton packed up his bow and arrows and spontaneously stood guard on a high place. Hill personally led people to clean up the underground ruins, took out all the items except the pyramid, and widened the passage by the way.

Natasha called Nick Fury and reported the mission status.

“That’s it, so far so good.

SHIELD has taken control of the tomb of the original mutants, let's just call it a tomb!"

"You didn't act rashly, did you?"

"No, I just did a simple cleanup of the mausoleum. I didn't even use any electronic equipment."

Nick Fury nodded imperceptibly, but his expression did not relax at all, "Aaron has always been paid to do things for him. Although he doesn't want to admit it, he has never let anyone down.

Since the prophecy has been made this time, the probability of Apocalypse escaping is definitely not low, you must be mentally prepared. "

"Accidents can happen at any time, is that what you mean?" Natasha took a deep breath and then looked at the fat man she had interrogated before, "An accident has already happened."

Nick Fury remained noncommittal, "That stone tablet records the legend of Apocalypse.

Find it, and seize control of anyone who comes into contact with it, or learns of its contents.

In short, the news must not be leaked.”

"I'm just getting ready to go!" Natasha looked down at the compass in her hand. The needle was pointing very clearly. "I have to admit, I really love this compass."

Nick Fury's mouth curled up, "No one doesn't like it, so... you know what I mean!"

“Fury, no, Chief, this is your job, don’t try to pull me aboard.

Besides, I advise you to give up this idea."

"It won't hurt to try."

"We're not at a disadvantage now, but it's hard to say what will happen in the future." Natasha hung up the phone and left with Barbie and several cars according to the direction of the compass.

......

A private museum.

The museum owner is enthusiastically introducing his latest collection to his friends.

“These three stone tablets are cultural relics dating back more than 3,000 years BC. I collected them with great difficulty, and the records on them are very interesting.

Evidence of the existence of En Sabah Nur, the legendary ruler of ancient Egypt."

“Tariq, I know you can read hieroglyphics, but there’s no need to show off like that!

Tell me quickly what these stone tablets say. "

Tariq smiled complacently, then pointed to a newly unearthed stone tablet, “This stone tablet records that En Sabah Nur is a ruler with multiple god-like abilities. He can replace his body and gain the lifespan and abilities of the original owner. He uses this method to maintain his rule.

However, his rule was overthrown by the people under the guidance of a prophet.

"This piece is the agreement between En Sabah Nur and other gods. Egypt will be his territory."

"As for this last piece..." Tariq pointed at the blurry and almost invisible stone tablet and said mysteriously, "This stone tablet records the prophecy of the prophet. I specially found professionals to use the power of technology to restore a few words."

"What prophecy?"

"En Sabah Nur will one day leave the pyramid, and he will regain all that he has lost, and those with the same power as him will be exposed to the light of day.

But his ambition will not be realized, because Phoenix..."

"Phoenix? It's a very famous mythical beast in the East.

And then what? "

Tariq shrugged helplessly and pointed to a line of text that was obviously missing from the slate. "It ends here."

"Isn't it?"

"I know you are interested in historical legends, but unfortunately, even technology cannot restore the latter part."

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

There was applause, and Natasha and Barbie walked in. "Looks like we've arrived at the right time!"

"Ladies, this is private property.

If you want to visit, you can wait a few days.”

Natasha didn't waste any words. She just glanced at the direction of the compass and asked Barbie to take out the SHIELD ID.

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we'll have to requisition these slabs.

But don't worry, we will return it after the research is completed, and if there is any missing, we will give sufficient compensation." Barbie smiled sweetly, and then asked the agents outside to come in and move the goods.

Tariq and the other man were shocked by their official identities, but when he saw that they were going to take the stone slab away, Tariq could no longer hold back.

"Wait, you have no right to do that."

"In fact, we do." Natasha said forcefully, SHIELD's working style was fully reflected in her.

"These slabs are not mine," Tariq said hastily.

"What did you say?" Natasha's expression changed slightly. "Who else has seen these stone tablets? Who knows what is on them?"

Tariq hesitated, but Barbie pulled out the gun right in front of him.

The black muzzle of the gun made him immediately choose to follow his heart.

"Last year, several people came to me with two stelae because I was the most famous historical archaeologist in Cairo and could decipher the contents of the stelae."

"who are they?"

"The leader seems to be named William Stryker, and the rest are probably all soldiers."

Snapped!

"This is troublesome." Natasha patted her forehead and asked helplessly: "Did you translate the two stone tablets for him?"

“I was already interested in the stone tablet, and their offer was not low.

Most importantly, they had guns.”

"What about the last slate?" Natasha asked, holding on to a glimmer of hope.

"William agreed to deposit the two slabs in the museum, on the condition that if there are other slabs, the translated contents must be told to him, and he paid me $10,000 in advance. I had no reason to refuse, so..."

“Shit!

when did it happen? "

"About two days ago."

Natasha's heart was finally hanging. "Barbie, take the stone tablet with you. We have to go back as soon as possible. It may be too late."

"Should we notify the director?"

"I will."

Several cars turned back, going even faster than before.

Natasha also called Nick Fury, “Bad news, Fury.

The military knew about the existence of Apocalypse, the ancestor of mutants, as early as last year."

"Can you be sure?"

"I'm pretty sure of it, I don't know about the others, but William Stryker was one of them.

You should be aware of the colonel's attitude towards mutants."

"Fuck Fuck!"

“Fury, we need backup, I suspect the military has been looking for Apocalypse’s tomb.

And SHIELD showed them the way.”

Nick Fury breathed rapidly, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Try to stop them. If you can't stop them, don't stop them."

"What? Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know very well, Agent Romanoff, but it's too late." Nick Fury said helplessly, "William Stryker is the military's knife against mutants. This knife is too easy to use. He has done all the dirty work, tiring work, and even life-threatening work.

When it comes to dealing with mutants, Stryker has too many resources to use. There is more than one general and one politician standing behind him. The military will never give up on him unless it is absolutely necessary.

And now Stryker and even the faction behind Stryker have been preparing for at least half a year. With the intelligence that SHIELD has obtained in the past two days and your team alone, there is no way you can compare with their long-term preparations. "

"Okay! I almost understand." Natasha calmed down a little, "That means we can't stop the prophecy, right?

So why are we still staying in Egypt? Can't we just go home and take a vacation?"

"We still have to struggle." Nick Fury said with a wry smile, "Maybe it will work!"

"Easy for you to say, Fury."

“Doing something and not succeeding is different from doing nothing.”

Hearing this, Natasha rolled her eyes speechlessly.

It sounds very high-sounding, isn't it just to pass the buck when the board of directors holds them accountable?

Back at the ruins, Natasha got out of the car with an expression that said 'as expected'.

Hill was arguing with a middle-aged man wearing glasses and who looked a little bloated. The camp was surrounded by hundreds of soldiers armed with live ammunition, and the SHIELD agents seemed particularly embarrassed in terms of manpower and weapons and equipment.

"Natasha, you're back so soon." Barton walked over and said.

"It doesn't seem to be of any use. It looks like there is no more work for SHIELD."

"What's the situation now?"

"You'll have to ask Hill about that." Barton shrugged. "Luckily she's the leader. I'm not good at negotiation."

"Looking at her expression, it seems that the negotiations are not going well." Natasha shook her head slightly and walked over.

"This is outrageous, shameless, and despicable." Hill said angrily, "It was obviously our SHIELD that came here first."

"Agent Hill, I've been very reasonable." Stryker said with a smile, "Also, let me correct you on one thing, we were the first to come.

The Egyptian government approved the military's development rights to this area half a year ago.

In other words, this land already belongs to the military, and you are trespassing into a military base.

If you don’t believe me, we still have the approval document.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman next to him handed him a document, "Government approval document."

"Let me introduce you to my personal assistant Yuriko Koyama."

"Dangerous, very dangerous." Natasha looked at this gentle woman and instinctively felt her scalp tingling.

"Natasha Romanoff." Stryker maintained a proper smile. "I guarantee with my character that Yuriko is very safe, safer than you Avengers."

After reading the approval document, Hill had to suppress his anger, "Colonel Stryker, do you understand what this relic means?"

"Of course I understand." Stryker's expression became serious. "It means danger and hidden dangers. I know the owner of this relic better than any of you."

"Then you still..."

"This is not just my decision." Stryker said with a half-smile, "To be honest! Many generals, senators, and even the president do not want En Sabah Nur to appear in this world alive."

"Then you should cooperate with SHIELD. We can try to strengthen the seal of Apocalypse."

"Good idea, very good idea." Stryker gave a thumbs up seriously, and then changed the subject, "But unfortunately, the higher-ups don't seem to agree with this method.

What they want more is to solve the problem once and for all and nip the risk in the bud.”
