Chapter 837 Norse Mythology Expert, Legend of the Berserker (1/2)

Seville, Spain.

The Airbus landed near a university, and Coulson walked into a university with Fitz and Simmons in the team.

"What are we doing here?" Aaron asked in confusion.

"This 084 is related to Norse mythology. There is a world-leading expert on Norse mythology in this school.

Elliot Randolph, he might be able to tell us something important that we don't know. "

"What have you found so far?"

"084 is incomplete. If Fitz and Simmons' analysis is not wrong, at least two-thirds are missing.

The third was found by the leader of the Norwegian pagan hate group, Jacob Nystrom, and his girlfriend Petra Larsson.

They are all ordinary people, but 084 seems to have given them great power.

According to survivors, his colleague was knocked several dozen meters away by Petra's palm and died suddenly. "

"Is it something that can greatly increase strength? Are there any side effects?"

"I don't know. Maybe Professor Randolph can give us the answer."

Colson brought everyone to an office door. The door opened automatically, and a female college student walked out with a depressed look on her transcript. Behind her was a middle-aged man named Elliot Randolph who was about to close the door. .

"Professor Randolph." Colson greeted with a smile.

"Agent Coulson, please come in."

"Waterfield 44 fountain pen." Colson walked in and looked at the light gold pen in Randolph's hand in surprise. "The 14K gold pen tip is inlaid with mother-of-pearl."

"Haha!" Randolph smiled, "You are quite discerning. I didn't know you were a collector."

"How can you afford a civil servant's salary?" Colson said with a smile.

"I guess you found something in London."

“Not London, in a tree in Norway.

Unfortunately, we didn't find it. "Colson took out a stick-shaped plastic model from Fitz's suitcase, "This is a 3D model. "

Randolph picked up the model and carefully observed the runes on the model, with a hint of surprise in his expression, "It's incredible.

Judging from these runes, it should be a section of the Berserker's staff. "

"Let's take a look." Randolph pulled out a blue book from a pile of books and said while flipping through it: "Yes, this myth dates back to the late 12th century.

It's about a powerful warrior from Asgard, a soldier in the Berserker army. "

"Berserker army?"

"Yes, a powerful army, unstoppable.

The Berserker fights like an angry beast, leaving no trace behind in his path.

One berserker has the strength of 20 warriors..."

"Wait a minute." Aaron interrupted, "I would like to ask if the twenty warriors you are talking about refer to Earthlings or Asgardians."

"Of course Asgardians."

"Wow! That's really scary!" Aaron pretended to shrink his neck, "It's too scary."

"Can someone with a cane have superhuman strength?" Coulson asked.

"A warrior who fights with it will be in an uncontrollable rage. The staff has a very powerful magic."

"Or there are scientific properties that we haven't discovered yet." Simmons said a little unconvinced. She didn't like using magic to explain abnormal situations.

"He has a smart mind and a beautiful smile." Randolph commented with a chuckle.

"Where is the legendary warrior?" Fitz asked.

"According to legend, he came to Earth to fight and ended up falling in love."

"Who did you fall in love with?" Simmons asked curiously.

“Fell in love with life on earth, in love with humanity.

He fell in love so deeply that when his army returned to Asgard, he chose to stay. "

"What about the cane?"

Randolph rubbed the model in his hand and said with emotion: "He didn't want its black magic to fall into the wrong hands, so he broke the stick into three parts and hid each part in a different place."

"Did the manuscript say where he hid them?" Coulson asked.

"Actually, it is said." Randolph put the book on the table, "in three poems, and you must know that these are all poetic summaries from ancient texts that have been lost for a long time.

One is about trees, and it seems they've found it.

Another song, "East of the river, with the scorching sun in the sky, buried in the earth, next to the bones," is a bit creepy, isn't it?

There's another one, this one doesn't even rhyme, it basically means 'closer to God', that could mean anything, right? "

Simmons disagreed, "It could be nothing."

“Church,” Aaron interjected, “I’m not a big fan of guessing games, but church is definitely the closest place to God.

As for the east of the river, the scorching sun is shining in the sky, buried in the soil, next to the remains... it may be a battlefield, but it's hard to say what the battlefield of thousands of years ago will look like now. "

"These places are not everywhere on the earth, but they are definitely not a few." Fitz shrugged, "You can't go looking for them one by one!"

Coulson looked at Randolph, as if asking his opinion.

"Uh...it's possible." Randolph's eyes turned around, "My suggestion is to search along the route of the Viking raids. For example, some interesting Norwegian relics have been found on Baffin Island off the coast of Canada, which are priceless treasures among prehistoric artifacts."

"Thank you, professor."

After getting the direction of the investigation, Coulson didn't hesitate. After expressing his gratitude, he left the office.

......

[Collect the cane of the violent warrior;

Complete the task to reward 300 magic points; no penalty for task failure; Do you accept it? ]

Aaron lay on the sofa, looking at the new task on the task panel and raised his eyebrows unconsciously.

Not only can you get a collection, but you can also get a 300 magic point task reward, and you don't have to put in much effort, there is no reason to refuse!

"Accept."

"There's nothing on Baffin Island." Coulson and Ward walked over and said, "Aaron, we may need some support."

"What do you mean?"

Coulson hesitated for a while, and said in a tangled way: "Your compass."

"Don't even think about it." Aaron refused without thinking. Borrowing things only happened for the first time and countless times, and he didn't trust S.H.I.E.L.D. at all.

If Captain Jack's compass was lent out, I'm afraid it would be borrowed without return.

"The Berserker's cane is too dangerous. Finding it earlier can reduce casualties."

"Everyone can say nice things, but..." Aaron said unhappily. "Don't I need to remind you what kind of person Nick Fury is?"

Hearing this, Coulson pursed his lips and turned to look at Skye, "How is your place?"

"The message board on the Nystrom dark web is full of lunatics. They firmly believe that they will ascend to heaven and become the god of death and destruction..."

Puff!

Aaron almost couldn't hold it, "What god do they want to be?"

"The god of death and destruction!" Skye said.

"Haha!" Aaron smiled reluctantly, "They are ambitious. I suddenly admire their courage."

The Goddess of Death is still on Earth, and you still want to become the God of Death. How much guts do you have to drink!

"They are just birdmen."

"Is this your investigation?" Ward asked speechlessly, "They are all birdmen?"

"These people are really bad, and they are talking about going underground."

"Maybe they are hiding their identities, or..."

"Or looking for the next section of the cane."

"Randolph suggested searching along the Viking route. Are there any others?"

"There are some ruins along the Volga River in Russia, and some in Kiev. Strangely,..." Skye clicked on the desktop screen, "There are also some here."

"Sevier?" Aaron smacked his lips, "That's interesting."

"The possibility is relatively small." Skye said, "But the Vikings plundered Seville twice."

"We found a possible location with Viking ruins." May walked over and said, "Eldvinonino, a church built on the ruins of an 8th-century crypt.

And before that, there were Roman ruins in 206 BC."

"East of the river." Ward pondered.

"There are still many remains." Coulson nodded slightly.

"The location of the second cane, maybe we can dig something out there." Aaron was eager to try, "Let's go! Return to Seville."

......

Dang!

The church bells rang, meaning it was noon.

Countries with hot climates, such as Spain, have the habit of taking a nap, so there are almost no pedestrians on the streets at this time.

Ward and Skye went into the church separately, while Coulson, Fitz, and Aaron directed remotely in the car.

"It must feel good to have a mandatory lunch break." Fitz said with some envy.

"Lunch breaks are not mandatory, but naps are indeed a good thing."

"From your tone, I can tell that being an agent is not that easy.

Fortunately, I am just a consultant and don't have to work hard."

Hearing this, the corners of Coulson and Fitz's mouths twitched.

What is this? Showing off?

"How are you, Agent Ward?"

"I wish I wasn't so tall." Ward held a flashlight and a spectrometer, bent down slightly and searched carefully in the dark passage. "Nothing has been found yet, and the instrument readings are all normal."

"How about you, Skye? How's your luck?"

"Fortunately, my supervisor took the initiative to search the eerie corridor and left this dungeon, which is not much better, to me.

I didn't find anything, sorry, nothing."

Dingding!

The instrument suddenly made a sound, and Fitz immediately reminded: "Ward, your spectrometer detected something abnormal around."

"I didn't see anything."

"The instrument shows that it's right in front of you.

Wait... No, okay... Wait a minute." Fitz looked at the three-dimensional stereogram on the screen, and the red punctuation began to move. "It's moving, northwest."

Ward looked forward and found a figure moving quickly in the dark, with a satchel in his arms.

"I see a suspicious person." Ward immediately chased after him.

The figure's speed was not slow, but it was still a little slower than Ward's. Soon he was blocked by him in an abandoned warehouse.

Ward grabbed the figure's shoulder and pulled him over, but he was still a little surprised when he saw the man's face.

This sneaky person is none other than Professor Elliot Randolph who provided them with clues.

"I can explain it all."

"I encountered something unexpected..." Ward remained unmoved and reported to himself while grabbing a silver cane in Randolph's bag.

However, as soon as he took hold of the cane, the runes on the cane flashed with red light.

At the same time, he seemed to see the memory he least wanted to see, and there was unbearable severe pain in his abdomen, and the anger rising from his chest seemed to be able to explode his heart.

"ah!"

Ward fell to the ground shaking, his chest heaving.

Randolph glanced at him and walked away quickly.

"Ward, what happened?" Colson asked anxiously.

"His equipment just lost contact." Fitz turned the screen to Coulson, and a line of red alert information appeared on it.

"Skye, can you..."

"Already on the way."

The three people in the car waited patiently, and soon Skye's voice came from the earphones, "Ward, are you okay?"

Ward came back to his senses and got up from the ground with a roar. His breathing was rapid and hoarse, as if he had gone through a cruel fight, and even his eyes were bloodshot.

"Grant, calm down." Skye tried her best to reassure him, "Calm down."

Ward looked at his familiar colleague, took deep breaths, and barely suppressed his irritability, "The cane... was taken away by him."

"Something's wrong with Ward. His cane is missing. It's been taken away."

"It seems that I found the right place." Aaron raised his lips and pretended to take out Captain Jack's compass from the space ring, "I'm going to find the cane."

The pointer on the compass moved slowly, and after Aaron got out of the car, he followed the pointer and accelerated his pace.

Randolph was carrying his bag, and his silver cane was exposed for more than ten centimeters through the gap in the zipper.

He walked quickly along the path, looking around carefully as his speed became faster and faster.

Snapped!

A hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder and pulled him into an alley.

Randolph subconsciously tried to break free, but the next moment he was grabbed by the neck and pressed against the wall.

"Shh!"

Aaron made a silent gesture and motioned with his eyes to look out of the alley.

I saw a group of people walking past menacingly, their invisible aura bringing an inexplicable sense of oppression. The four words "Keep away from strangers" were vividly interpreted by them.

“The leader is Jacob Nystram, the leader of the Norwegian alien hate group.

The first part of the cane was in his hand, and if nothing else happened, they were here to find the second part of the cane. "

"Professor, if you don't believe it, you can go out and try it."

"Uh..." Randolph nodded sincerely, "I believe it."

"This is the second cane." Aaron noticed Randolph's satchel and reached out to the silver cane.

"It's best not to touch it, this isn't..."

Before he finished speaking, Aaron took hold of the cane.

The runes flashed red again, but he was not affected. It seemed that the Berserker's cane had no magic power at all.
