I'm starting a mythology craze at Marvel

Chapter 103 New Church
"Coulson, look, regarding the church of the Holy Son Hong Xiuqing, I think we can build it more magnificently so that the believers will feel it is grand and majestic. We must not embarrass the Holy Son."

Xia Ling held an A4 paper and spoke to Coulson while asking Natasha to write down his opinions. Tony sat aside indifferently.

"Director, is this appropriate? Such a big matter is to be decided by the three of us?"

The corners of Coulson's mouth twitched. This was not a small church on the level of the Church of Dagon and the Brotherhood of the Yellow King.

This is a church that believes in Yahweh, with so many believers across America, and it is also a church where the Son of God appeared.

Colson is just a small governor. Does he have the power to make decisions on such a big matter?

"Of course. The representatives of the government, military and financial groups are all here. If we can't decide, who is qualified to decide?"

Coulson was stunned. He looked at Tony, then at himself, and then at Xia Ling.

"Director, I can barely be considered the representative of the government, Stark is the representative of the consortium, who is the representative of the military?"

Tony Stark smiled and put down the coffee cup in his hand. His signature cynicism was mixed with a hint of confidence: "Military representative? If you don't mind, I can take on the role temporarily.

After all, my company has close cooperation with the Ministry of Defense, and I have many old friends in the military."

"Tony, I won't bother you with this matter. I am the representative of the military."

Xia Ling took over the position of military representative without hesitation, leaving the other three stunned.

"Director, when did you become a representative of the military?"

Coulson was extremely surprised. He was the one who handled all the affairs of SHIELD and had never heard that SHIELD took over the military.

"Don't you think those cannon fodders are very conspicuous in these incidents? They are not professional at all, unable to find the right clues to open up the situation, and are simply giving themselves away. S.H.I.E.L.D. can naturally replace them."

Xia Ling explained with a smile, and the reason was convincing and well-founded.

"Director, I'm afraid the military will retaliate."

"Well, I didn't openly replace them. It's just that SHIELD will be responsible for a wider range of business in the future. Besides, political correctness has already been introduced into the military. They are just a bunch of thieves. They no longer have any fighting power."

It's not that Xia Ling looks down on the military, but political correctness is something that cannot be applied to the military. The combat effectiveness of an army composed of good families and an army composed of a group of indescribable people are two completely different concepts.

"That's right, Coulson, you are just too honest. They are just a bunch of watchdogs. You don't need to care about them."

Tony went on to say that although he used to be an arms dealer, he was responsible for supplying weapons and equipment to the military.

But precisely because he used to be an arms dealer, he understood that the seemingly powerful military was nothing more than a watchdog barking louder.

If it were decades ago when that giant monster had not yet disappeared, it would have stopped making trouble if it was given a few bones to eat.

The masters are still a little afraid of these vicious dogs, but when the behemoths disappeared, the current army has already been castrated beyond recognition, and they would not dare to bite anyone even if they had a hundred guts!
"Okay, Chief, let's not talk about this for now. Who should be the head of the new church?"

"Why not Tony? He has a lot of money and deserves the position."

As soon as Xia Ling said this, Tony was choked by Xia Ling's sudden suggestion and coughed repeatedly. Natasha couldn't help laughing, while Coulson was stunned, obviously not expecting the director to be so "humorous".

"Director Xia, are you kidding me?" Tony finally caught his breath and said with a wry smile, "Although I have no interest in religious culture and I am a pagan, I am afraid it is not appropriate for you to let me manage a church, especially a church with a deep faith foundation and special significance."

Although Tony only paid lip service to the belief in Panacea, he was still a believer of this god after all.

Take this god's technology and go to another god's church to manage it.

Tony thought he was very thick-skinned, but he couldn't do such a shameless thing. He was not afraid that the God of Machines would be angry and make the souls of all the machines that Tony touched in the future unhappy.

"Didn't I make it clear to you the other day? Wanji Shen is a new vest created by Yahweh to adapt to the development of the times. If you believe in Wanji Shen, you are also believing in Yahweh. There is no difference."

Tony was stunned. He thought Xia Ling was joking, but it turned out he was serious?
"Director, I really can't agree with this logic."

Tony rubbed his temple, obviously feeling helpless and amused by Xia Ling's remarks.

I looked through all the books about Yahweh, but couldn't find any relationship between Him and the God of All Machines.

"Moreover, the new armor I built with the guidance of the God of All Machines seems to be of no use, and the Machine Soul does not seem to have an advantage over my Jarvis."

Tony complained that since the appearance of the god, some people were happy and some were worried. Compared to Coulson's joy, Tony was very worried.

The "anti-Banner armor" he created through his "faith" in Pandora's Box was useless.

When Tony learned that Banner had escaped, he couldn't wait to use his armor to deal with Banner.

It’s just that the other party ran too fast, and the god appeared too quickly.

His armor looks powerful, but it is no different from scrap metal in front of the gods.

"That's because your faith is not sincere enough. Have you really believed in the God of All Machines these days? You haven't studied the armor well. Look for the problems in yourself and don't put all the blame on the God of All Machines."

“Well, Chief, I will re-examine my belief in the God of All Machines and try to understand it more deeply.

As for the church director, I do feel that I am not suitable for this position, but we can consider other candidates or set up a management committee to jointly manage it. "

Tony had to give in. His faith was just verbal, and he didn't even have a church built for Him.

If he were the God of All Things, he would not even bother with such believers.

"It's okay. I'm just putting you on the list. The specific matters will still be handled by SHIELD. You just need to pay for it."

Tony understood. He understood completely.

Xia Ling let him be the person in charge just to make him a sucker.

And with this attitude, I don't have to take care of the specific matters. I just have to pay the money and sign on time.

And if anything happens in the church, you will be responsible for it.

How could this person be so mercenary?
