Chapter 78 Coulson, your old lover again
When Li Chengfeng came to the Airbus through the portal, he was almost in Peru and there was not much time left.
The Airbus belonging to Coulson's team finally flew over a huge dense forest and landed on the flat ground outside the forest.
Then he drove the FBI's specially made off-road vehicle towards the coordinates that had already been determined.
Li Chengfeng did not pull the portal directly. After all, Coulson's team would not always carry out missions with him, so it would not be a good thing for them to get used to the convenience of the portal.
Moreover……
It's not easy to travel across the country at public expense, so you have to see the scenery, right?
After about an hour's drive, they arrived at their destination.
This is an excavation site of the ancient Inca civilization.
Li Chengfeng first went into the surrounding woods and took a look around. After making sure there were no traces of any large creatures, he nodded and asked everyone to start moving.
After Fitz and Gemma gathered all the tools, they got out of the car talking and laughing.
"By the way, Gemma, is this the bushkill you mentioned on the plane?"
Hearing this, Fitz and Gemma immediately turned around and saw that a yellow-brown poisonous snake was wrapped around Li Chengfeng's beautifully muscular forearm. This ugly thing was indeed a giant South American bush viper, and it was biting Li Chengfeng's hand desperately with its mouth.
However, Li Chengfeng's physical strength is still there, and a snake's fangs cannot break his defense at all.
"OMG? Is it fun to wrap a poisonous snake around your hand? And this snake is biting you!"
"Don't mention it, it's really itchy. It seems that this little guy likes me."
As Li Chengfeng spoke, he untied the snake from his wrist.
Then he swung his arm and threw the snake back into the jungle.
Snake: Thank you so much!
After seeing Li Chengfeng throw away the snake, Zhenma came over to check Li Chengfeng's wrist. Although she knew that this thing couldn't break Li Chengfeng's defense, but...
The venom from the giant bushkill was now dripping down his hands onto the ground.
Zhenma quickly took out the high-concentration disinfectant and washed Li Chengfeng's hands.
"Um, Gemma, although I know it's good to be careful, these snake venoms really don't affect me. I'm fine even if I drink them directly."
"Agent Li Chengfeng, of course I know this is useless to you." Jemma Simmons sighed, "But if the venom is not dealt with, I'm afraid other team members will be infected. Clean it up quickly to prevent you from causing trouble for us."
"Agent Jemma Simmons, as your leader, I have to say a few words! You didn't treat me like this in the beginning! Give back the admiration you have for the star agent, you bastards!"
Fitz and Gemma both rolled their eyes at Li Chengfeng and were too lazy to continue paying attention to the young senior agent.
He turned and walked into the ruins of the ancient Inca temple not far away. This ancient temple hidden in the dense forest has existed for at least five hundred years. It is also the place where the 084 item was detected this time.
Li Chengfeng followed Jemma and Fitz into the ancient Inca temple. After the two conducted the most detailed field survey at present, they came to a conclusion.
"Everything inside is ancient, from the Inca era, or even before the Inca era." Fitz pointed at something on the wall that clearly didn't look like a product of ancient civilization and said, "But I don't think anyone with a normal IQ would think that this is something that should be here."
"In the fossil rock layer that was just mined at the innermost part of the temple, there is actually an unidentified object with an orderly mechanical structure embedded in it?" Zhenma continued, "What does this mean? It means that it has been here for at least 1,500 years, which is longer than the existence of this temple!"
"…But judging from the craftsmanship, it looks a bit like a German product."
Li Chengfeng looked at the Science Babies duo who were discussing excitedly and decided to go out for some fresh air.
He possessed Captain Cold's genius-level expertise in mechanical engineering, and could tell at a glance that this should be something like an energy transmitter.
However, although he has knowledge, he is not essentially the type to engage in scientific research and technology.
"Mei, have you eaten?"
As soon as Li Chengfeng walked out of the ancient temple ruins, he saw Melinda May who had just parked the car in a secluded place.
Of course, it is in Chinese. It is a happy thing to be able to communicate in Chinese outside the Republic.
"You should use such pleasantries on other people."
"Blame me, blame me...By the way, did you and Fury tell Steve Rogers about Captain Carter's existence?"
"Not yet. Rogers has just begun to integrate into the current generation normally. Don't stimulate him for now. After a while, I will take him to meet our Peggy Carter. She has been... relatively sober recently."
When talking about Peggy Carter in this timeline, Melinda May's usually expressionless poker face actually showed a rare hint of sadness.
Li Chengfeng immediately stared at Melinda May vigilantly.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Melinda May touched her face subconsciously, "Is there something on my face?"
"No, I thought you would say the lines that an FBI agent must say in that situation." Li Chengfeng said with lingering fear, "Peggy Carter is the closest character to your mother in your life... something like that. Believe me, I almost get a nervous breakdown when I hear this kind of sentence recently."
"Well, I have a real father and a real mother."
"Thank you, my dear parents. You have won so much with both parents."
As Li Chengfeng spoke, he suddenly made a few tactical gestures used by FBI agents.
Melinda May understood immediately.
The two of them leaned towards the dense bushes on both sides.
Then the two men attacked at the same time and pulled out several men with guns from the bushes.
They are all fully armed soldiers.
Li Chengfeng had noticed them as soon as he arrived at the outskirts of the Inca ruins, but he was too lazy to alert them.
He always tried to catch them all in one fell swoop.
The reason why he called on Melinda May to take action now was because the opponent's manpower had almost been assembled.
Melinda Mei and Li Chengfeng knocked down the soldiers in front of them in an instant. At the same time, several military off-road vehicles suddenly drove over from all directions.
Dozens of soldiers, also fully armed, pointed their guns at the two men.
"Fuck, I just let it go for a while, how come there's a sudden miracle?"
Oliver Queen, Wade Wilson and Steve Rogers suddenly walked out from the dense forest of soldiers.
Li Chengfeng spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.
The five people present were all experienced agents. They just exchanged glances with each other and decided on the next course of action.
Five people surrounding dozens of people, that's reasonable.
Then they performed a vivid drama of "a tiger among the flock of sheep".
Soon, there were dozens of people on the ground who had completely lost their ability to fight.
"I heard that there is a group of rebels in Peru who are resisting the government. Could it be them?" Wade Wilson put away his swords and said nonchalantly.
"No, they are well-equipped and well-trained. No matter which country they are in, these dozens of people are excellent soldiers. They are obviously the regular army of the government." Oliver Queen observed very carefully, "But why did they ambush us? We have already informed the Peruvian officials this time!"
"What happened?"
Coulson walked out of the Inca ruins with Barry Allen, and his expression suddenly changed when he saw the Peruvian government soldiers lying on the ground.
"A group of government soldiers attacked us for no apparent reason... Don't worry, we used non-lethal means, so there is no need to worry about causing an international dispute."
Steve Rogers' words gave Coulson peace of mind.
But what happened next made him spit out the reassurance that had just reached his throat.
Because soon, a person he was once very familiar with appeared.
……
More than 20 seconds after the battle ended, Peruvian military police commander Camila Reyes rushed over, and all she saw were soldiers lying on the ground groaning.
And Li Chengfeng who seemed to be waiting for someone.
"Who are you?" Camilla Reyes was shocked. "What happened to my soldiers?"
"I am Li Chengfeng, a Level 7 agent of the FBI. My team is here for a matter concerning international security."
Li Chengfeng's expression was calm. After all, he knew exactly where the other party came from.
The game of cat and mouse is something you never get tired of playing.
Just as he finished speaking, some of the regular soldiers lying on the ground slowly woke up and could struggle and utter some groaning sounds.
Logically speaking, they definitely showed mercy, otherwise even if it was non-lethal force, he wouldn't have come to his senses so quickly.
"FBI?" Camila Reyes was a good actress. Her pretended confusion looked flawless. "I am Camila Reyes, the commander-in-chief of the Peruvian military and police. You need to explain your actions on our territory."
"As you wish, Commander Camilla Reyes." Li Chengfeng nodded and pointed to the Inca ruins behind him. "We have detected the existence of Item 084 in this Inca ruins in Peru. As the commander-in-chief of the military and police, you should know that according to the international convention signed by Peru, Item 084 is contained by the FBI and does not belong to the country of discovery."
Seeing that Camila Reyes wanted to say something, Coulson came over from behind and waved at her.
"Hmm? Phil?"
"Camilla." Coulson walked up to his old acquaintance with a smile on his face and said, "How many years have we not seen each other? You have been promoted to commander-in-chief."
"In fact, it was three years ago. Phil, we should say hello now."
After that, Camila Reyes gave Coulson an intimate kiss on the cheek.
Shit! It's Coulson's old lover again!
So what is the charm of this bald guy that makes such a charming old lady unable to forget him?
It’s just that Li Chengfeng’s grandson is very bad. He likes to interrupt others when they are exuding an ambiguous atmosphere.
"Are you Commander Camilla of the Peruvian government? Very good. Now I have something I need your help with."
"Oh, Phil." Camilla Reyes shook her head. "The agents under your command are all very good, but they lack respect for people."
"Camilla, I think you misunderstood. Although he is standing here, he is not my subordinate. In a sense, his position and importance are higher than mine." Coulson's expression instantly changed from meeting his former flirt to being businesslike. "Although Agent Li Chengfeng is very casual, he never asks questions to strangers without reason, so... I think you'd better answer his questions honestly."
Camilla frowned slightly. Damn clairvoyance? There is no information about such an important person?
The situation was urgent, so she had no choice but to climb up the pole.
After seeing Camilla acquiesce, Li Chengfeng asked:
"Considering the situation of the Peruvian government army and the rebels fighting each other, how could the commander-in-chief have time to come here to meet her old lover? Or does Peru have the technology to detect the 084 object? That's why they deployed so many elite soldiers here?"
"…Actually, we were searching for the rebels, and encountering you was just an accident."
"You're just being stubborn! Let me answer for you." Li Chengfeng walked between Camilla Reyes and Coulson and whispered, "Did your clairvoyant tell you that Agent Coulson will lead a team to recover item 084 today? He said it's a weapon that can be used to end the civil unrest in Peru. But... there's an obstacle that must be eliminated."
Camilla Reyes's face changed drastically when she heard that. She quietly distanced herself from him, looking at Coulson with eyes full of complexity and determination.
Coulson was also shocked, but he was surprised by the woman's cruelty.
"So...when did you decide to give up the feelings between us?"
"…from the moment I saw your team."
"Should I thank you for not deciding when I got the intelligence?"
Camilla Reyes shook her head helplessly and decisively pressed the button on the communication device in her hand.
For a moment, all that could be heard was the roar of more car engines in the distance.
The number of people exactly matched the number that Li Chengfeng discovered when he first patrolled. The other party had indeed gone out in full force.
"Subdue the FBI agents and seize item 084!" Camilla Reyes gave the order indifferently, and then said to Coulson, "I'm sorry, Phil, I have to make a difficult choice between you and my country. Don't worry, as long as you don't resist, I won't hurt you. After destroying the rebels, I will surrender to the International Military Tribunal and the FBI."
"Yeah……"
Coulson nodded. He understood that things were already irreversible...
So I turned and walked towards the mountain...
Bah! Turn around and walk towards the Inca ruins.
"Team, follow orders. Try not to kill anyone."
"This is your team now, so I'll listen to you."
The old lover didn't talk about the past, but Coulson still softened his heart.
In fact, he is not a saint. If the other party has some evil purpose, he will shoot and kill without hesitation.
But whether it was Camila Reyes or these soldiers, they had no other way to save their country and chose to take risks.
Coulson really couldn't bring himself to deal with such a person.
This is also his most humane side.
After all, the black-salted egg is extremely calculating and decisive in killing, but will anyone really like this black-salted egg?
