Magic Journey from Hogwarts

Chapter 998: The unknown creatures that the Inhumans fear, the choice of coordinates



A large piece of giant garra crocodile meat was roasted on a red-hot stone slab and sprinkled with special seasoning. The fat was bubbling and the aroma was oozing out.

Gulu! x3

Coulson, Simmons, and Abe, both of them and Long swallowed their saliva in frustration.

Coulson was better. Although he was a little hungry, he was not very hungry and could still hold on.

Abei wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth unconsciously. It would be fine if Shenglong didn't eat, but he couldn't change his greedy habit.

Simmons couldn't take her eyes off it. The grease dancing on the stone slab was the most beautiful picture in the world to her.

This is the food that humans eat! What kind of life has she been living for the past half month? In order to survive, she drank unknown liquids and ate unknown animals and plants in unknown liquids. The fact that she didn't collapse was a sign of good mental quality.

"Okay." Aaron cut a piece of barbecue and put it directly into his mouth and started chewing.

"Is it delicious?" Simmons asked blankly.

"It's not bad! It's fragrant on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. It's at least several times better than ordinary steak." Aaron said as he cut off a large piece and put it on Abe's plate.

Shenglong showed no reserve at all and started to eat heartily without caring about the presence of outsiders.

"Aren't you hungry?" Aaron asked with some confusion.

"Hungry, of course I'm hungry, of course I'm hungry!" Simmons said immediately, "I haven't eaten for almost a day."

"Coulson, I have to criticize you.

Did you leave those things in your bag to get moldy?"

Coulson's mouth twitched, and he awkwardly opened his backpack and threw two packs of compressed biscuits and a bottle of mineral water to Simmons, "Just make do with it!

Mei helped pack this backpack, and she probably didn't expect us to find you so soon."

Simmons looked at the compressed biscuits and mineral water in his hand, then looked at the man and the dragon drinking wine and eating barbecue opposite him, and suddenly he felt unwell.

If she had obtained these two things a day ago, she would have been very happy. At least it was better than eating unknown creatures. But now, when she compared them, she could only feel disgust. It was not right to bully others like this.

creak!

At this moment, the iron cover above his head suddenly opened, and a man in linen clothes came down the ladder.

He held a machete and stared at Aaron and Coulson warily for a few seconds, then relaxed a little, "Simmons' friend?"

"How did you tell that?" Coulson asked.

"She has photos and videos of you on her phone." Will smiled casually, "Simmons, you are right, your friends have not given up on you.

But it is remarkable that they were able to find it in such a short time."

"What's even more amazing is that they found a way to open the portal, so we can get out of here."

"Really?" Will looked at Coulson in doubt and asked nervously, "Are you sure it's not some illusory hope?"

“Every twenty-four hours, my team will open a portal on Earth.

We just have to find the right location.”

Hearing this, Will sighed heavily, his eyes becoming a little gloomy, "How can I find it? I have been looking for it for more than ten years, but I have never found anything."

"Aaron is a fortune teller. He can predict where the portal will open."

"Divination? Is it reliable?"

"Be more confident and remove the word 'ma'.

I am a regular fortune teller with professional ethics. I would not come to this shabby place if I was not absolutely sure."

"If the portal opens once every 24 hours, then we have to move faster." Simmons stood up while enduring the pain in his leg, "This planet is not too big, but not too small either.

The location of the portal opening is different every time, and sandstorms blow in from time to time. If you miss it, you have to wait for the next 24 hours."

"Uh... I don't think you should worry about that." Coulson said with a dry laugh, "Aaron brought a means of transportation, a very, very, very special means of transportation.

We still have nearly ten hours, and we can definitely make it before the portal opens."

Aaron shrugged and said nothing.

"It's better to be quick. If we're late, there might be changes." Will said, "NASA said they will take us back within a year, but Simmons told me that the rock is no longer in NASA's hands."

"Okay! I'll leave after I finish my meal." Aaron cut another piece of roast meat and put it in his mouth, chewing while saying, "Before I leave, I have a few questions, and I hope Mr. Will can help me solve them.

Anyway, you will definitely be interrogated again by SHIELD after you get out, so it might be a good idea to think of some words now."

"what is the problem?"

Aaron smiled mysteriously and asked directly, "Why are you here? What is your mission here?"

“NASA had always been curious about monoliths, but the space exploration budget had run out, so a small group of people inside convinced everyone that this was the future of space exploration that NASA could afford.

I was originally an Air Force pilot, and after being recruited by NASA, I volunteered for this project.

Haha! I can never refuse to do something that others say is impossible.

There were four of us in our team, and I was the first one to go through the portal, carrying all my equipment, and the other three followed behind me.

They are all scientists, responsible for collecting samples, mapping the local area, and studying the planet.

My mission is relatively simple, to keep a clear head when an accident happens and save everyone's lives until we find a way back."

"But you're the only one here." Coulson frowned and asked, "What happened in between?"

"It." Will said solemnly, "It has a way of getting into your mind and making you crazy.

Austin jumped off a cliff, Brubaker set himself on fire, Tyler smashed the equipment with an axe, and then came at me, and then... I had no choice but to kill him and run away. "

Coulson thought for a moment, then turned to look at Aaron, "Do you think 'it' is what the Inhumans are afraid of?"

"What?" Simmons was confused. "How is it related to the Inhumans?"

"How should I put it? It's complicated to explain.

Now you just need to know that the stone was left by the Kree to destroy the Inhumans, so there must be potential danger in this world, and it is very likely that it is what Will said... "

"It's hard to be sure now. At least we have to see 'it' with our own eyes."

"Are you crazy? We should try to avoid 'it'."

“Haha!” Aaron sneered and said meaningfully: “If you came to this world more than ten years ago and survived the battle with ‘it’, it means that ‘it’ is not that powerful.

Come to think of it, the Kree left Earth thousands of years ago and left behind that stone, which means 'it' has been in this world for thousands of years.

But what kind of world is this? Barren, desolate, and desolate, no matter how powerful it is, after thousands of years in such an environment, even a dragon will be weakened to the size of an ant. "

"That's an ant that eats people. We can't provoke it casually." Will said seriously, "The best option is to leave this world before 'it' reacts."

"I may disappoint you." Coulson spread his hands awkwardly, "If nothing unexpected happens, 'it' already knows of our existence.

When you were outside before, didn't you hear any roaring sounds?"

"You guys made that?" Will opened his mouth in astonishment. "Are you crazy?"

"If you want to lure the snake out of its hole, you have to make some noise." Aaron smiled lightly, "But you can rest assured that we won't take any risks. We just want to figure out what 'it' is."

"We have to leave here as soon as possible. 'It' will definitely come looking for us."

"Wait, wait," Simmons interrupted, "maybe that 'it' doesn't exist at all?"

"Do you think I made this up?"

"You haven't really seen 'it', and the experiences of the three people who came with you can also be explained by psychological reasons. Perhaps the extreme isolation drove them crazy, which is not uncommon."

"But not for astronauts, who are trained to endure years of isolation."

Simmons was speechless. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Let's leave as soon as possible!"

"Aaron." Coulson urged somewhat embarrassedly, "Have you finished eating?"

Aaron rolled his eyes at him and helplessly put all the tableware into the space ring. As for the unfinished barbecue, he stuffed it all into Abe's pocket.

"Watford..." Will's eyes widened in surprise. He had lived alone in a different world for more than ten years and was somewhat out of touch with the development of the earth. But seeing someone could make things disappear directly, he couldn't help but marvel, "How did you do it?"

"Alchemist, one of my identities." Aaron raised the ring on his hand, "The daily necessities contained in it are enough for an ordinary person to consume for several years."

"Does it... have it too?" Will looked at Abe in disbelief. "Wouldn't its clothes have it too?"

"Of course." Aaron picked up Abe with a smile on his face, "Its pockets may contain more things than my ring.

But since I have raised it since it was young, I can just stock up on it, as long as it likes it."

Hearing his master's words, Abei raised the faucet proudly, but his joy lasted only three seconds before it was pressed down by a finger.

"Stop pushing your limits."

Abei rubbed his head aggrievedly and nodded weakly.

......

Simmons was accidentally brought to this world by the boulder and did not bring anything valuable with him. Will simply packed a few things, so everyone was not delayed for long and got out of the cave in less than a few minutes.

"Where will the portal open?" Will asked directly, "I have a map of this world. Although there are still some places I haven't visited, it should be able to help."

"No need." Aaron looked up at the sky, "The stars will guide us."

"Stars? Shouldn't it be a crystal ball?"

"Agent Coulson, I use the crystal ball simply because I am the best at it, but that doesn't mean it is the only thing I can use.

For a true fortune teller, astrology is also a required course."

"Is this okay?"

"It's just more troublesome. Otherwise, if you give me a pendant, I can also rely on the inspiration of the fortune teller to find the right direction." Aaron said mysteriously. The stars in the sky formed combined symbols in his eyes, and the star map was also drawn rapidly in his mind.

Soon two special coordinates appeared in the constellations, but one appeared and disappeared from time to time and would be activated soon, while the other was completely invisible and seemed to only be activated when the constellations changed.

"Over there." Aaron pointed to a hill on the left, "The portal will open in that direction."

"Are you sure it's there?" Will asked nervously.

"Don't insult my noble character with your suspicious eyes. You are disrespecting my profession."

"It's not that I don't respect your profession, but that's a mass grave over there, a restricted area where 'it' might appear."

"Huh?" Aaron was stunned for a moment, then laughed nonchalantly, "I found two coordinates. The first one is quite far from us, about dozens of kilometers away, but the portal was opened relatively late, which should coincide with the next liquefaction of the boulder.

The second one is the so-called mass grave. The portal that Skye opened with the boulder will appear there, but it seems that her luck is not very good. "

“If you think the risk is too great, it’s okay. Skye will open the portal again in the next 24 hours, and the coordinates will change accordingly.

If you don’t like uncertainty, you can just go to the first coordinate and wait. It will take at most ten days or half a month for the stone to open normally.”

"Go to the mass grave." Coulson thought for a moment and said in a firm voice that did not allow for any argument.

"Can't we wait until tomorrow?" Will asked in confusion. In his opinion, that would be the least risky, and they didn't need to face the mysterious 'it'.

"We have no choice, Will." Coulson said seriously, "If the portal really opened in the mass grave, 'it' might not fail to notice it.

I know my teammate very well, and once the time comes, she will do her best to keep the portal open.

If we don't get there in time, 'it' might return to Earth through the portal, and no one can predict how big of a disaster that would be."

"That's not the most interesting thing, the most interesting thing is that 'it' is the nemesis of the Inhumans, and Skye happens to be an Inhuman.

Once 'it' gets out, Skye will definitely be the first to suffer.

And the boulder is right under its nose. If I were it, I would never allow the thing that caused me to live in another world for thousands of years to continue to exist."

"You mean 'it' will destroy the Boulder?" Simmons asked.

"Nonsense, only by destroying the boulder will there be fewer things on Earth that threaten it.

But by that time, we will be in such a pity. If the boulder is destroyed, it will be like the passage connecting the Earth to this planet is gone, and we will have to stay in this godforsaken place forever."

After the words fell, Coulson, Simmons and Will couldn't help but gasp.

I have to admit that Aaron knows how to create pressure.

Unless they were lucky enough that 'it' hadn't discovered the portal, they would have to take the risk, or there was a high possibility that they would be exiled for life.
