Chapter 575: Marvel: Awakening the Little Cosmos at the Start, Chapter 310

~7 min read 1,392 words

Mephisto opened his mouth, then said nothing, walked back, filled both their glasses with Angel Whiskey, and raised his own cup.

Hawk also raised his cup.

Their glasses clinked together in midair.

After Mephisto drained his cup in one gulp, he sighed and looked at Hawk.

"At this point, I think the two of us should be sincere."

"I have always been sincere."

Hawk smiled as he looked at Mephisto: "You were the one who broke the foundation of trust."

The first time, he truly trusted Mephisto.

And what happened?

This guy coveted his Phoenix Divine Authority, even using his own son as bait to lure him into a trap.

Hearing this, Mephisto gave a bitter smile, then looked at Hawk.

"Trust me one more time, can you?"

"Yes."

"Really?"

Seeing Hawk nod without hesitation, Mephisto's eyes lit up: "You really are willing to help a brother out?"

Hawk chuckled: "If I didn't intend to help you, I wouldn't have come here to drink with you."

He had actually considered letting the winner take all.

Truly.

Until Hawk came to the Hell Dimension to drink, he had been pondering this issue, then thought of Hydra.

Why did Hydra's two struggles both end in failure?

Fighting on two fronts is a mistake.

The Celestials behind the Heaven Dimension.

Death behind Mephisto.

Hawk could offend one of them, but not both at once.

The most important point.

Befriend those far away, attack those nearby.

Death is too far, while the Celestials are too close.

Mephisto can die, but not now; currently the Heaven Dimension is in the shadows, while he and Mephisto are in the open; if the two of them fight, it will only give the Heaven Dimension more opportunities.

Gwen said something well.

As long as he holds onto a shred of goodwill and remains calm at all times, then no matter how many schemes the Heaven Dimension unleashes, they will be utterly useless against him.

So...

Hawk thought for a moment, and ultimately chose to help Mephisto.

But!

"My goodwill lasts only once."

After Hawk drained the cup Mephisto had refilled once more, he flipped the glass upside down on the table and looked at Mephisto: "Don't disappoint me, Old Mo."

Mephisto's expression was grateful; watching Hawk rise, he punched his own chest with a fist, then pointed at Hawk.

As if to say, watch my performance, bro!

"However, how do you plan to find that developing Hell Angel?"

"Simple."

"Find outside help!"

Hawk turned and walked toward the door of the Hell Tavern, waved his hand without looking back, spoke casually, then pushed the door open and stepped out.

The next day.

Hawk got up very early, first dropping Gwen off at the foot of the Osborn Biotech Building.

Felicia was already waiting in the parking lot.

"Felicia."

"Hawk."

Felicia embraced Hawk as he got out of the car, then looked at Hawk: "Shall we go up together to visit Dr. Stacy's lab?"

Hawk waved his hand: "No, I have other matters."

Hearing this, Felicia said "Alright," then looked at Gwen beside her: "Dr. Stacy, are you ready to tour your lab?"

Gwen smiled: "Of course, can't wait."

Felicia nodded, then looked at Hawk: "Then we'll head up first; see you at noon."

Today was the second day after Ben's baptism ceremony ended; according to custom, Peter and Felicia were supposed to treat him to a meal on this day.

After all, Ben's baptism ceremony was paid for by him.

Hawk also said "See you at noon," then got back into the car, drove the Audi A8 out of the Osborn Biotech Building again, and headed toward Times Square.

Half an hour later.

"A woman with somewhat Italian features."

"There should be a little boy beside her."

"Right."

"The priest."

"Beside these two, there should be a priest, a black-skinned priest; right, he also carries a silver flask."

Having secured jurisdiction over life and death in the Western Hemisphere, Hawk, who was constantly drawing souls to the Underworld almost every moment, did not hesitate; he sat directly in the office of Sharon Carter, the top agent of S. H. I. E. L. D. in Niuyuecheng, seeking assistance from the agency.

The Hellfire Angel that Mephisto mentioned—he actually had some theories about it long ago.

It's just that little boy from Ghost Rider 2.

But...

He had already forgotten the plot, yet he remembered the drunkard priest vividly.

After all, which priest has black skin?

However, considering that God himself is also black-skinned nowadays, everything makes perfect sense.

Sharon lowered her gaze to the notes recording the characteristics of the person Hawk wanted to find, then looked up at Hawk.

"Anything else?"

"No, that's all."

"..."

A woman suspected to be of Italian descent.

A child.

A black-skinned priest who drinks.

Sharon looked at the recorded characteristics, moved her lips, then nodded: "Fine, I will send these three characteristics to headquarters and ask S. H. I. E. L. D. agents worldwide to keep an eye out."

Hawk nodded.

"Thanks, tell me immediately once you find them."

"No problem."

Sharon did not hesitate.

Ever since learning from Hawk's mouth in the Atlantic that Heaven, Hell, and Hawk were about to fight a divine war.

The Five Great Virtuous Ones were even more proactive than Hawk.

Let's put it this way.

For the Five Great Virtuous Ones, God can exist, and can even be real, but God cannot appear on Earth.

In one sentence.

The Five Great Virtuous Ones are unwilling.

After all, that old thing called God has been gone for so many years; now the Five Great Virtuous Ones are in charge, so why suddenly come back?

Leaving other things aside, if God really returns to Earth, then at that time, who will be in charge of Earth's affairs: God or us Five Great Virtuous Ones?

So...

Compared to Hawk and Mephisto, it is actually the Five Great Virtuous Ones who are even less willing for God to return.

Therefore, at that time, the Five Great Virtuous Ones dispatched their own intelligence personnel to start searching for anyone who looked like a 'Hellfire Angel'.

Unfortunately, Hawk did not say much back then, so their search was very confused, like a blind man touching an elephant.

But now?

Although the characteristics Hawk provided were few, there was finally a clue; feeling around in the dark for a needle is better than a blind man touching an elephant.

Sharon felt that once this intelligence was submitted, the Five Great Virtuous Ones would definitely be very happy.

Quickly.

After securing support, Hawk did not stay long in Sharon's office.

However, just as he was walking towards the parking lot with Sharon, he suddenly saw an acquaintance.

"Hawk!"

"Jane!"

The person who came was Jane Foster, the girlfriend of Lei Shen Thor.

After hugging Jane, Hawk looked at her curiously: "Why are you here today?"

Jane closed the documents in her hand and shrugged.

"Director Hill said some astronomical data has been unsealed and asked if I was interested in learning about it, so I came."

"Where is Thor?"

Seeing Jane made Hawk think of Thor; thinking of Thor made him think of the Golden Armor materials he had already gathered, needing only one more: the blacksmith to forge the divine weapon.

However, because the Seventh Sense had not yet broken through, Hawk was not in such a hurry to ask Thor to take him to meet the Dwarf King.

But he paid close attention to his friendship with Thor, after all, whether the Dwarf King could help depended entirely on Thor.

Jane smiled.

"Then you have to ask Sharon."

"Ask Sharon?"

Hearing this, Hawk looked at Sharon standing nearby.

Sharon smiled and said: "Thor is an Avengers member; recently, the Avengers have been scouring the world to eliminate Hydra remnants. Thor enjoys this feeling, especially after battles, when these people always gather to drink and chat. Thor said this gives him the feeling of post-war life in Asgard."

Hawk blinked.

"Why didn't I receive an invitation?"

"Uh..."

Sharon hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping.

Jane beside her smiled and said: "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Hawk raised his sword-like eyebrows and looked at Jane.

"The lie is..."

"Your level is too high; Thor said he would call you for help only after they can no longer solve things themselves."
