Chapter 139 Master's shops are closing down
The mysterious cottage began in 1888.
Between the two buildings, one on two floors, a shop with the style of the last century stands tall.
When you push the door open, a wide range of goods come into your eyes. There are specimens of cats and dogs, chickens, ducks, fish bones, human skeletons and even lifelike girls’ heads. This is probably the residence of the evil mage in human imagination.
"If I hadn't heard about this person's down and outs from that dad, I would have thought he was a big figure in the city."
"He is the big figure in the city, Colson. He is just down and out. But then again, this poor girl... If it weren't for a mission, I must point a gun at his head and force him to bury this poor girl."
"Remind you, Mei, if there is no mission, we will not know Dad, we will not be able to get this magical pufferfish, and we will not be able to see it here. Moreover, this girl may not be dead."
Walking among the dazzling array of goods, Colson and Agent May chatted with each other, diluting the shock in their hearts.
Compared to Dad's antique shop, this place is more in line with their imagination of a place where a master of mystery is a master. Well, although in Dad's mouth, the people here are croquettes rather than masters, for laypeople like Colson and others, any one on the mysterious side is a master.
Colson and the others couldn't tell the difference between the father and the boss here, and what was the difference between Balsazze.
They all live in a two-story building with all kinds of messy items. They all have strange quirks, all mysterious people, spells, and even the shops they open are on the verge of bankruptcy.
Yes, Dad and the owner of the Balsazer are both on the verge of bankruptcy.
Even the reasons for closure are similar.
They don't sell.
Although they have many magical treasures in their hands, and selling them can make their life worse, they never sell them.
My dad is a little better. Occasionally, he would sell one or two antiques of ordinary people, and his nephew would subsidize his family. In Colson and the others' opinion, this Balsazer has probably not sold a product for many years.
Not everyone can choose products with the hollow eyes of the dead creatures in the house.
Even if there are one or two such perverts, Balsazze, who is just in his father's mouth, should not sell anything to them.
Does he really have money to pay property taxes?
"Who are you? How do you come in... Oh, it's an old puffer fish..." A voice sounded, interrupting Colson and the others' thinking.
"Hello, Mr. Balsazze, this is the strategic defense of the country..."
"Stop, I know you, Strategic Science Group. I helped Steve Rogers when he was still there. I also worked as your consultant when Paige Carter was in office."
“…”
Barsazer's words left Colson and Mei speechless.
Are you my own person after a long time?
"I'm not my own. I have no interest in your strategic science group. If it weren't for the child who could be said to be aggregating all virtues, I wouldn't bother me to me."
"But, Mr. Barsazze, since you have been meddling in other people's business, can you please..." Come out again to help us when new threats emerge one after another?
"I'm not interested in coming out again. And like old man, I don't want to cause trouble. I can't even get busy with my own affairs."
"..." Can you read your mind?
"certainly."
“…”
Silence. Once or twice, before he could tell his own question, he was answered. Colson and May finally discovered some of Balsazer's abilities.
This is really a huge trouble.
As agents, they have too many secrets that they cannot tell others. Such a person who knows how to read minds can be said to be inappropriate at all. Please go to SHIELD as a consultant.
"I was not interested in listening to your secrets either. But as a mortal, your thoughts are as clear as in my eyes as in this room."
"..." After seeing through his heart again, Colson and May were silent again.
Fortunately, the explanation is not very clear. However, after looking at this messy house, Mei felt relieved.
"...get out." Balsazer turned around.
Colson and Mei were helpless.
What should I do?
There is no choice but to leave.
After Ms. Carter retired, the communication between SHIELD and the mysterious side was almost completely interrupted. It was not that they had thought of retaining it, but they had never succeeded.
And this Barsazer was obviously much more withdrawn than the mysterious people who were in S.H.E.L.D., and Colson and May did not dare to hold mysterious hopes at all.
But they didn't expect that after turning around, Balsazze started talking:
"Give you some comfort. As long as you don't want to, I won't hear your thoughts. Carter and Howard know this very well."
"Don't think about me going out to help you. At most, give you some information. Those swords have never appeared before. But there have been no similar things in this world, and without exception, they all originate from the gods who have already left this planet."
"I don't know about that Platycodon. But the so-called witch is to serve the gods."
"Okay, don't think about asking me. I've said too much. If those knives originate from some evil god, my store will be demolished tonight at the latest. Get out of here!"
"Mr. Balsazze, we can help..."
"Take it down, just by you? The gods and demons who produce swords of this level of energy are at least the main gods of the gods. Even if they tie the strategic science group together, they can't beat other people's watchdogs! Humph, if you have to participate, unless the Supreme Master of Kamataj is willing to shout a word for you."
"Bang."
“…”
With his back against the tightly closed door, Colson and Mei looked at each other.
The ones who were kicked out this time were really fast, much faster than at the Dad's Antique Store. They stayed at the Dad's Antique Store for at least half an hour, but there was no more than five minutes here.
But at Daddy's Antiques Store, they only got one piece of information, but here they got a lot of it.
What's the situation?
Because of the past incense? Or people who have been withdrawn for too long happened to vent? Or even because of invisible fate?
Well, whatever the situation is. Colson and the others can go back and report.
God and Supreme Master?
It sounds like a very powerful name.
...
When Colson and the others obtained the information, Platycodon had already turned around and fire.
Or to be precise, it is the interface between the sea of swords and fire and the world.
Just like before, Ye's aesthetic still places this interface in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers but few people.
But what is different from before is that this time, this interface is much more approachable.
On the famous mountaineering attraction near New York, a three-story manor selling high-end cold weapons opened its doors to everyone.
Compared with Dad's antique shop and Balsazze's mysterious cottage, the business conditions of this manor can be said to be very good.
Sometimes the store owner doesn’t understand why, as extraordinary, people actually lose money even when opening a store.
Buddhism? Buddhism is not a reason.
In his store, even salesmen are often missing, and they will not lose money.
Without publicity, there will be many customers.
Without a salesperson, all customers will pay the money honestly.
No one is looking at the store, and no bandits or irs will visit.
Why lose money?
