Lynn already had a very clear understanding of Nick Fury.
Undoubtedly, he is a person with a strong sense of responsibility, a sense of justice, correct outlook on life, and some excellent qualities.
What is commendable is that he also possesses rationality and forbearance that ordinary people do not have. He is a natural leader and an excellent leader.
Such a person should be a person with great leadership charisma, but Lin En has been with him for such a long time, but he has never discovered this charm. Instead, he always has the urge to provoke him.
The reason is simple: Nick Fury's sense of responsibility is too abnormal. He is responsible for the earth and all mankind.
This made him always suspicious and cautious. Over time, this affected his character and made him naturally suspicious of the people around him.
His every word and every look makes people feel like they are being analyzed.
However, in his phone call with Lin En just now, there was no such tone for the first time.
He asked Lin En to come out for a meeting, more like a discussion, or... a request.
This made Lynn very curious.
You know, he had just sent the news that Congressman Lyle Morgan was targeting him, and the other party made such a call. The connection between them is very intriguing.
"What's the matter that you called me here so urgently, Director?"
Lynn came to the beach where the two often met, where Nick Fury was already waiting for him.
Not far away, Hawkeye was pretending to be a nonchalant tourist and was on guard.
"Hey, serious, kid, this time is not the same as before." Nick Fury looked really serious.
He paused, looking at Lynn again, as if he was seeing him for the first time.
Then he shook his head.
"I must be crazy to come to you."
Nick Fury said, sighing, as if he didn't want to continue.
It looked like he was in big trouble.
"Oh, I still don't know anything now. You still have a chance to regret it. I can see that you are struggling with the next topic." Lynn stretched out her hand to stop Nick Fury's performance.
"Do you regret it?" Nick Fury looked up at Lynn again, as if he was having final thoughts.
"It's up to you. To be honest, I don't want to be associated with those dangerous and thankless things in your bureau. My normal life now should be playing baseball with my classmates at school, going on graduation trips or attending parties with many beautiful girls..."
Lynn shrugged.
"I remember that at the beginning, you called me a non-staff member, but now, if S.H.I.E.L.D. calculates the year-end performance, I can probably be rated as an outstanding employee... So, do you have any rewards and subsidies for outstanding employees? Some travel and other privileges?"
Lynn was very curious.
"Stop... What you said sounds really headache-inducing. How do I know a guy like you, fuck?" Nick Fury stopped Lynn's complaints, then turned sideways and showed something behind him.
It was a long, rectangular package with what looked like a stick inside.
"Mind Gem Scepter? Oh, why did you bring it? What mission would require it? Don't tell me to use it to kill Thanos for you..."
Lin En's face changed and he stepped back immediately.
Seeing this, Nick Fury smiled bitterly and said:
"No, there is no mission. I brought it here to give it to you for safekeeping."
"Keep it? Leave it to me?"
Lynn stared at Nick Fury with a suspicious look on his face, suspecting that he had some conspiracy.
"Yes, the other day you brought me the news about Leighton Morgan, I went to confirm it with my friends in the military and political circles. They, the White House, and even many members of the Security Council have expressed clear dissatisfaction with SHIELD, and they are the foundation on which SHIELD was built. In other words, SHIELD's former prestige is gone. Although SHIELD will not be abolished immediately, I know what those people are doing. They will gradually undermine SHIELD and turn a tiger into a sick cat."
"But the Earth needs SHIELD. The danger we face is not realized by those guys sitting in the office and chatting. We must retain the system, so during this period, the main personnel of SHIELD will return to the backstage and come out again when the time is right."
"As for some extremely important information in the bureau, only people like you who are trustworthy can keep it."
Nick Fury's voice was low, but his eyes were still firm. He was not hit by this sudden change, but quickly made a long-term plan to prepare for a rainy day.
After saying that, he picked up the scepter and threw it at Lin En.
"Why did you choose to give it to me? I mean, Thor, Stark, or the Captain would all make you feel more at ease, right? At least I can see that you were still struggling when I came here."
Lynn didn't take it immediately, but asked back.
"They have their commissions, and I am not used to putting everything together and keeping it safe. This may be the bottom of the earth in the future."
Nick Fury explained calmly, then turned back.
"To be honest, you should pay me the storage fee." Lynn said, looking at Nick Fury's back.
"Fuck, don't think I don't know you can use its power!"
Nick Fury turned around, roared, and left without looking back.
"… "
It was not until Nick Fury's back disappeared that Lynn turned his gaze to the scepter.
"call-"
He let out a long breath.
"I'm almost suffocating to death."
In fact, as early as when he saw Nick Fury, he had already felt the aura of the Mind Gem Scepter, because he felt his magic power suddenly surged, which was very familiar.
Thinking of the solemn tone of Nick Fury's voice on the phone, he understood the other party's intention almost instantly.
However, when he saw Nick Fury's face clearly, he found that the other party was actually very reluctant, so he used a tactic of playing hard to get.
All his expressions and words just now seemed to be trying to shirk responsibility for the matter, but in fact they were all meant to relieve Nick Fury's feeling of being taken advantage of.
And now, he can finally put this thing in his pocket with confidence.
Lynn carefully took the scepter out of the package and was mesmerized by its graceful golden shape.
He raised the scepter and waved it gently, just like the God King Loki loved to do.
An extremely surging power surged into his arms, and every cell in his body was leaping for joy.
