Chapter 43 A Hasty Ending

"Let's end this farce here. I'm not going to play along with you anymore. Think carefully about what I'm about to say."

After glancing at the crowd, Casillas waved his hand and led his priests and followers away.

"Wait, what do you mean? Why did you stop fighting as soon as I arrived?"

Tony Stark was completely unable to accept that he had finally managed to get rid of the poisoning problem and was just thinking of coming over to help clean up the cult, but now the big boss was about to leave?

This move not only stunned Tony Stark, but also the S.H.I.E.L.D. team and the Ancient One. Just as Coulson was about to stop them, his phone rang.

Coulson's hand trembled slightly as he answered the phone almost instinctively, and the voice on the other end made him instantly forget the impending pursuit.

"Chief, what are your instructions?"

Understood, Director, but I

Okay, I'll obey.

After hanging up the phone, Coulson looked at his comrades beside him, including Tony Stark and the Ancient One, and sighed.

"Let's go, guys, that's enough for today, let's get out of here."

Coulson waved his hand helplessly, signaling his colleagues to stop fighting and retreat immediately.

As an agent, although they were puzzled, they had to obey the orders given by their superiors.

Moreover, this superior had just come back from the dead; such a miraculous feat made them dare not disobey.

Hawkeye glanced at the silent Ancient One, frowned, his throat bobbed, but ultimately kept quiet.

However, their compliance does not mean that Tony Stark, this troublemaker, will obediently follow orders.

"Hey, Coulson, you're just leaving like that?"

"This is the director's order."

Coulson stated this directly, leaving Iron Man speechless.

Tony's face turned pale and then black. He turned around, took out the magic conch shell from his pocket, and pulled the cord.

"Magic Conch Shell, what are your chances of winning if I attack this cult now?"

"I think you should make a will first."

Tony immediately lost face. This magical conch shell actually looked down on him so much. Did it mean that if he couldn't beat it, he could at least run away?

"Coulson, I think you make a good point. Let's retreat for now."

Tony said this in a serious tone, feeling that he still had to respect the orders of Director Xia of S.H.I.E.L.D. from time to time, after all, he was an advisor to S.H.I.E.L.D.

When both sides were fully prepared, the Ancient One's eyes flickered, as if she was making up her mind.

"What? How dare that old man Deng do this? Did he even ask me?"

Upon returning to S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony couldn't wait to ask Xia Ling why she had retreated, and Xia Ling, without any intention of keeping it a secret, told him the reason directly.

The Grand Commander called Xia Ling and ordered him to cease his operations against the Dagon Church.

Xia Ling was happy that someone took the initiative to make peace, so she went along with it.

Well, Casillas is the most reliable one. He knows that in this world, you need connections before you can be incredibly powerful.

Otherwise, under the heavy blow of capitalism, no cult can succeed.

This withdrawal has caused dissatisfaction among some people.

The Playboy was furious. In New York, a tiny place, they didn't even consult him about such an important matter?

Do they really think Tony, this big capitalist, is worthless?

Unlike in the original history, he didn't join any of that bullshit Avengers.

The Tony we know now is a high and mighty chosen one, not the Tony we know after joining the chuunibyou alliance!

"Yes, yes, you're amazing. You're so capable, go and take care of the Red Giant!"

"Red Giant? Hmph, if that's the next challenge we need to face, then I'll naturally take it on without hesitation. But before that, I need to figure out why we're being so underestimated in this matter."

Tony crossed his arms over his chest, looking quite disdainful.

However, Tony himself knew in his heart that if he went to fight the Red Giant now, he would probably be dealt with by the Red Giant's henchmen before he even got to the Red Giant.

At the very least, we have to wait for his suit to be upgraded further; at the very least, we have to make the Anti-Red Giant suit.

"The Red Giant was one of the main reasons that the commander-in-chief made me terminate the operation."

Tony frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he understood what Xia Ling meant.

It's simply that the government can't handle it, so they want to use the power of the Dagon Church to deal with the Red Giant and his army.

"That's just one of the reasons."

Seemingly seeing through Tony's thoughts, Xia Ling added another sentence.

Tony's expression shifted between light and shadow. As a major capitalist in America, he certainly knew that the game of politics and power was far more complex than the technological inventions he was so passionate about.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and looked directly at Xia Ling: "Then, what other reasons are there? We can't just give up our fight against the cult because of the Red Giant, can we?"

"That's not the right time to tell you."

Xia Ling spread his hands, looking incredibly irritating, which immediately ignited Tony's anger.

He is one of the masters of this country. Is there anything that he is not in a position to know?

However, judging from the situation, Xia Ling didn't intend to tell him, so she could only sulk by herself.

"Coulson, just say what you have to say. There are no outsiders here."

Seeing Coulson hesitate, Xia Ling generously let him express his thoughts.

Coulson glanced at Xia Ling, then at the crowd, and slowly spoke, "Director, can you give us a break? Are you really Yahweh's messenger?"

Upon hearing Coulson's words, Tony, who was still sulking, immediately turned his head, and the others all looked at him curiously.

Why do you say that?

Xia Ling neither admitted nor denied it, but simply said this.

"As everyone just saw, I was pierced through the chest by that evil priest named Casillas, but I came back to life shortly afterward."

Coulson paused, looking at everyone's reactions, all of whom were extremely curious about his ability to come back from the dead.

After all, only one person can bring someone back to life.

"In the darkness after my death, I saw the Lord. He said that I should not have come here at this time, and that I should go and help His messengers and obey His leadership."

"And now, I am under your command, Director. So, are you Yahweh's messenger?"

As Coulson finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Xia Ling.

If this is true, then we will be much more confident in carrying out missions in the future. We can be resurrected even if we die, and even if we can't be resurrected, we can go to heaven. In short, it's a win-win situation.

"I"

"Just admit it, Director Xia, you are Yahweh's messenger!"

Tony was convinced, as if the evidence was irrefutable, that Xia Ling was the prophet. However...
