Chapter 61 A Hammer That Fell From the Sky
To be honest, Sherlock really didn't want to deal with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s repeated 'harassment,' but each time S.H.I.E.L.D. came up with conditions that Sherlock couldn't refuse.
The last piece of information about Obadiah was like that, and this time it's even more so about that immovable hammer falling from the sky.
Upon hearing Coulson's description of the hammer on the phone, Sherlock almost immediately knew what it was.
Mjolnir!
That is Thor's Mjolnir!
Compared to his own Spear of Longinus, the Mjolnir was a true "divine weapon"! It was one of the strongest weapons born from the magical and technological civilization of Asgard! One of the treasures of the Aesir!
If only we could analyze the Meow Hammer...
The moment this idea appeared in Sherlock's mind, it quickly took hold of him like an addictive poison, even overshadowing his loathing for S.H.I.E.L.D. or Hydra. Almost instinctively, he said it to Coulson on the other end of the phone.
"Where exactly is that hammer?"
Upon hearing Sherlock's reply, Coulson finally breathed a sigh of relief, a smile returning to his face, and gave Sherlock an address over the phone.
"The desert in New Mexico! I'll send you the exact coordinates via text message."
After saying that, Coulson hung up the phone. Sherlock listened to the busy tone on the phone, his expression one of great struggle. After thinking it over and over again, Sherlock gave up the idea of using the Anywhere Door to get there directly and chose the most traditional way: driving there.
On the one hand, it was because Sherlock couldn't appear too eager in front of Coulson, and on the other hand, it was because Sherlock wasn't actually that far from New Mexico at that time.
It's best to keep something like the Anywhere Door out of Hydra's sights.
Unlike when he faced Coulson alone before, who knows if there might be a Hydra mole on the scene? Sherlock didn't want to be too high-profile for the sake of his future quiet life.
Although Hydra or S.H.I.E.L.D. most likely already know that Sherlock's ability is alchemy, they still have some reservations about the unknown nature of alchemy.
However, items like the Anywhere Door, which can be considered to have strategic delivery capabilities, can easily break through these so-called concerns, just like capitalists when faced with a 1000% profit margin.
Looking at the coordinates transmitted by his phone, Sherlock could only sigh helplessly before turning the car around and driving towards the target, hoping that the plot of Thor 1 would slow down a bit so that he would have time to analyze Mjolnir.
Meanwhile, at the scene of the Mjolnir incident, after Coulson hung up the phone, a man carrying a bow and arrow walked up to Coulson and asked him a question.
"Is the foreign aid you hired reliable?"
Coulson's smile remained unchanged as he answered the man's question.
"Don't worry, Agent Barton, this is the most reliable superhuman I've encountered so far. He's the one who took care of Iron Man in Los Angeles."
At this point, Clint Barton's expression became extremely strange. He raised his hand to interrupt Coulson, his expression seemingly complicated, and asked Coulson a question.
"The superhuman you're talking about, could it be a little guy named Sherlock Flamel?"
Upon hearing Hawkeye's words, Coulson raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Clint Barton, who was carrying a bow and arrows, in front of him with some surprise.
"Do you know him?"
Faced with Coulson's question, Clint Barton's expression became even more complicated. After remaining silent for a long time, he finally managed to utter two words to Coulson.
"I've seen it!"
After saying that, Clint Barton turned and left without hesitation, and began to direct the construction of the temporary fence on site.
Looking at Clint Barton's slightly disheveled back, Coulson was full of questions. He took out his phone and accessed S.H.I.E.L.D.'s internal system. After looking at the intersection of Clint Barton's and Sherlock's paths, Coulson understood almost instantly why Clint Barton had that expression.
It's very simple. Back when Tony was being rescued in the Middle East, it was Clint Barton who was involved in the operation. Unfortunately, Clint Barton failed to find Tony, but Sherlock did.
More importantly, Sherlock stood Clint Barton up in the end, leaving him on Tony's plane and making Barton wait alone on the plane for nearly an hour before slinking back to Washington.
This can be considered a minor but significant dark chapter in Clint Barton's secret service career, which explains his expression upon hearing Sherlock's name.
After figuring out what had happened, Coulson turned to look at Clint Barton's back, who was pretending to be very busy, and his smile widened. Without saying anything, he turned back to his work.
Fortunately, Coulson isn't Sherlock. If it were Sherlock, he would have gone up to Clint Barton and said a few sarcastic things.
Meanwhile, Sherlock was unaware of everything that was happening at the hammer site. He was driving day and night towards New Mexico, and after about three days, he finally arrived at the scene in his big pickup truck.
The scene was now cordoned off by scaffolding and tarpaulins, and there were even S.H.I.E.L.D. armed forces patrolling the perimeter. As expected, Sherlock was stopped immediately.
What made Sherlock even more nervous was that the person who intercepted him looked very familiar.
Brock Rumlow!
Looking at that face brimming with masculine hormones, Sherlock really wanted to ask him, "Did the Wolf Warriors bring you here?"
Of course, Sherlock was only thinking about it and wouldn't actually say anything strange to him, after all, he was a legitimate Hydra member.
As Crossbones walked towards him, Sherlock calmly rolled down his car window and casually dialed Coulson's number on his phone. When Crossbones reached Sherlock's car window with a smile, Sherlock handed him his phone without saying a word.
When Crossbones saw the phone Sherlock handed him, his expression froze for a moment. He had been thinking of having a chat with Sherlock and trying to build a lesbian relationship with him. But after recalling the tragic state of the Ten Rings, he ultimately didn't show any other emotions and simply took the phone.
The sound of Coulson's voice coming from the phone made Crossbones even more annoyed.
"Sherlock? Have you arrived? Hello?"
After taking a deep breath, Crossbones replied to Coulson in a deep voice.
"Agent Coulson, this is Brock Rumlow!"
Upon hearing the sound of the crossbones, Coulson's tone inevitably carried a hint of joy.
"Yes, Agent Rumlow. The person on the phone is an outside helper I invited. Please let him in directly. Thank you, Agent Rumlow."
