Chapter 27 You can call me Holy Lord
After resolving Glenn's matter, Shendu arrived at the laboratory where Tony was currently located, swiped his card, and entered.
"Hmm? You want to donate blood again so soon?" Tony teased as Shendu entered.
The Holy Lord sat in a chair to the side, not taking up the subject: "S.H.I.E.L.D. has begun to suspect Stark Industries, or more precisely, Natasha suspects it."
The Holy Lord thought of Natasha's unusual behavior and Glenn's words: "She might come to see you soon, so I'll get in touch with you first to get a clear story."
Tony glanced at the test tubes beside him; they were still being tested, and it looked like it would be a while before the next stage of results came out.
"No need. I already knew I should say that when I started tampering with Stark Industries' devices at S.H.I.E.L.D." Tony said nonchalantly.
"By the way, how many darts have you gotten? That's what I'm really interested in."
When Shendu heard that Tony could explain S.H.I.E.L.D.'s troubles, he didn't linger: "Don't worry, someone will deliver the darts to you, but not me."
He glanced one last time at another corner of the lab, where there were ten boxes, one of which contained Shadow Legion darts.
After leaving Stark Industries, Shendu met Natasha.
"Hello, Mr. Valon, what a coincidence, we meet again. Are you also here to see Mr. Stark?" Natasha looked at him with an expression that said, "I didn't expect to run into you here."
The Holy Lord knew very well that there was no such thing as a coincidence. The other party was likely waiting for him here until he came out of Stark Industries.
"What a coincidence, is Agent Natasha also here to see Mr. Stark?" The Holy Lord also looked surprised.
Natasha didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "To be precise, I'm here to see Mr. Valon. Your current identity is very sensitive, and someone might try to harm you."
The Holy Lord feigned suspicion, and Natasha showed no desire to explain: "Don't worry, I won't affect your normal life."
The Holy Lord did not refuse. He was also looking for an excuse to get close to Natasha, and now that she had offered herself to him, he had no reason to refuse.
Moreover, from the moment Natasha appeared, Shendu sensed the aura of the Serpent Talisman, and now Natasha is wearing the Serpent Talisman on her body.
Nothing happened along the way, and the two did not speak. However, they encountered a person dressed in full clothes who bumped into the Holy Lord.
Around a corner, "Natasha" appeared before him: "What a coincidence, Mr. Valon, we meet again."
The Holy Lord looked at the newly appeared "Natasha," then glanced at the Natasha behind him, feigning confusion: "What's going on here? Two Natasha agents?"
Natasha also noticed the newly appeared "herself" and immediately went into battle mode, pulling out a pistol from somewhere and pointing it directly at "Natasha's" forehead.
"Don't move, hands up!" Natasha's voice was icy. "Who ordered you to do this?!"
The other "Natasha" also stared at him with an unfriendly expression: "Mr. Valon, what's going on?"
Natasha didn't waste any more words. She pulled the trigger, the finger flick grazing the other person's face: "I'll ask you one more time, who ordered you to do this!"
Seeing that things were not going well, Natasha turned and ran.
Seeing the other person flee, Natasha chased after them without hesitation.
The Holy Lord followed behind Natasha, watching her run wildly. He felt that she had intellectual problems, as she couldn't even see such an obvious trap. It seemed that the snake charm had given her immense courage.
The Holy Lord commanded "Natasha" in front to slow down, otherwise, given the speed of the Shadow Legion's ninjas, Natasha would not have been able to catch up with her.
The two followed "Natasha" to a factory that had not yet been repaired. The factory was airtight, and sunlight could only shine in through the opening in the door.
Natasha noticed a large number of mannequins inside the factory: "A little trick."
"Don't run so fast," the Holy Lord followed closely behind into the factory. "Be careful, it might be a trap."
As soon as the Holy Lord finished speaking, the door behind him slammed shut without warning, the loud slam echoing throughout the factory.
"You don't think you can protect yourself like this, do you?"
Natasha's voice was icy as she pulled a powerful flashlight from a storage bag on her lap, its intense beam illuminating almost the entire factory.
When Natasha saw what was happening before her, she was stunned. All the original mannequins had disappeared, and a large number of "Natashas" appeared in her eyes.
The "Natashas" stared blankly at Natasha, their limbs stiffly and slowly rising, the sound of bones grinding echoing throughout the factory.
Gunshots rang out continuously, but the bullets only left bullet holes in the bodies of the "Natashas," causing no real damage.
She saw the "Natasha" from before; the other person was in the "Natasha" army, and her movements were incredibly agile.
"Did you do this?"
Natasha was at a loss. She had identified the person behind it all, but she couldn't get close to them.
Now, we must leave this place.
She retreated to the factory gate, only to find that the gate was impossible to open; even when she flicked her finger at the gate, it didn't leave a bullet hole.
Natasha glanced at the Holy Lord huddled in the corner: "Damn it, I knew you were afraid of death, but I didn't expect you to be this afraid. Is that the only way to kill you? That stone?"
She reached into a hidden pocket, held a stone in her hand, and vanished in an instant.
The Holy Lord could feel the attraction of the Serpent Talisman, and Natasha finally used it.
Natasha moved silently within the "Natasha" Legion, her already top-notch agent skills now amplified by the aid of snakes.
She approached "Natasha" and accurately stabbed "Natasha" in the neck with her folding knife.
Blood spurted from Natasha's neck, and she finally collapsed, powerless.
Natasha breathed a sigh of relief. Although she hadn't captured the enemy alive, at least the current crisis was resolved.
She looked around, her body stiffening. The "Natashas" were not paralyzed as she had imagined, but were swirling around without any effect.
"How could this be!" Natasha stared at the scene in disbelief.
Despite her shock, as a top agent, she quickly calmed down and carefully observed the situation.
Suddenly, Natasha seemed to sense something, and the stone in her hand emitted an inexplicable pushing force, as if pulling her.
Natasha carefully sensed the force, looked in the direction of the force, and then she froze – it was in Valon's direction!
She then realized that Valon had a mysterious connection with this magical stone.
"This is all related to you, you did it all? You're actually the mastermind? From the mole within S.H.I.E.L.D. to this point?" Natasha said incredulously, stating the conclusion she had reached.
Upon hearing Natasha's voice, the Holy Lord stood up and said, "Hmm? You noticed? But it's too late."
Natasha looked at Valon now; his appearance was completely different from before.
An aura emanated from within him, an aura of authority that emanated from a king and was filled with the disdain of a superior for an inferior.
The Holy Lord's voice wasn't loud, but Natasha could hear it clearly: "Now that you've figured it out, I won't pretend anymore."
The Holy Lord paused, his tone shifting from disdain to contempt yet filled with oppressive authority, deafening Natasha: "Let's reintroduce ourselves. You can call me Holy Lord!"
