[Zhongyingmei] Goblin Detective

Dreaming, in a sense, is a kind of hallucination due to the incomplete will of the brain during sleep.

Not only humans, including some animals, can also produce dreams.

— but this range often does not include goblins.

As creatures that can actively control and shut down certain functions in their bodies, they do not have the "rapid eye movement stage" of sleep. The resulting picture is also very different from that of human beings.Even for succubi, this process of unconscious dissipation of human will itself is food that can be ingested.

Therefore, for Lindell, if he wants to use "dream" to describe the current situation, it can only be regarded as a poetic description.

The true ether in the Well of Light was immersed in the body bit by bit. In the end, as if it could not be deployed in this narrow body, accompanied by the dislocation of the joints and the teeth-stinging sound, his arm suddenly Stretched a bit.

Human emotions can make a person grow, and sipping pain can make him grow. Obviously, he can't understand the essence of those pains conceptually, but the magic power exchanged by overwhelming souls is still spreading bit by bit. his muscles and bones.

It was a painful, difficult cocooning.

The spine is gradually elongated in the trembling and shaking, followed by the scapula and pelvis, radius and ulna. This movement is like an ocean wave, gradually spreading from the core of the body to the distal extremities until it affects every finger. The fingertips, the tiny bones are gradually adjusted in size while being filled with pain and magic power.

The young man's face is also gradually changing. The originally well-trimmed blond hair is constantly extending behind him, and the muscles are winding away at the speed of bone growth. Together, the two stretch the skin, and are quickly filled with magic power, cracked and healed.

It can exist as a pure energy body, and can choose to have a tangible form, but unlike humans, goblins cannot have dreams, and can only regurgitate and tamper with existing memories over and over again—for example, the person said, my mother It's a nurse in the hospital, do you need to treat the wound? Another example is his two human friends holding his hand together, saying that we can definitely end this war together.

Aziraphale said that even if everything goes well, human beings can only live a hundred years. If you want to live in the human world for a long time, the first thing you need to get used to is parting.

Therefore, he has long been mentally prepared for this, but he never thought that "nearly a hundred years" would be directly compressed to one-fifth-in his vision, the final difference should be in the hospital, where the two people Any one will become an old man with gray hair and beard, with proper hospice care procedures, surrounded by a large group of juniors.Those young humans have listened to the stories of their fighting on the battlefield for a long time, and are familiar with the names of each battle. In the end, this farewell will die satisfactorily after saying their last words.

That would be a parting without regret.

"Lindell... Lindell?"

It's been another week since I woke up again.

The result of excessive infusion of magic power last time was a week of high fever, but this time, it completely completed the "transformation" as a goblin.

Dugan said that he was the only one found at the scene. Captain America and the plane loaded with weapons eventually crashed together. People know where he fell in the end, he should have fallen into that huge pit.

——By the way, the gate of Fairy Village was completely closed, and even the surrounding buildings were destroyed by the escaping magic power. A lot of construction waste fell into the huge pit, and even the search and rescue team could not enter. So much so that it was judged KIA without even finding the nameplate.

"That's how it is, and what's more, the only guy left has become what he is now..."

Dumdan Dugan, who was in charge of the report, hesitated for a moment: "He also refuses to talk to others now. I think you'd better not expect him to come back and explain the report honestly."

"..."

Ms. Carter took a deep breath, and there was lingering worry in her eyes. This time they lost their most trustworthy captain and an excellent sniper, and the war continued.

"I'll find time to talk to him later."

Peggy Carter finally said: "The end of this mission has also thwarted Hydra's dangerous plan. You should take a good rest and wait for the next arrangement."

Steve no longer has any relatives, and few relics, and basically all of them are kept by Lindell.The long-haired young man who was already an adult fell into a long silence. A simple magic mask could no longer hide his inhuman biological features. Even though he had been intentionally controlled to look like a human, he still retained those golden eyes in the end.

On the day he woke up, many members of the commando came to greet him with worried expressions. Lindell did not respond to any of them. He watched them with calm eyes from beginning to end, and finally spoke softly: "I'm quitting Howling Commandos."

"what?"

Dugan turned pale with shock, "In any case, the reason we formed this team is also to end the war. The situation on the frontal battlefield is still very serious. If we quit at this time..."

"I'm not talking about leaving the battlefield."

The other party raised his eyes, and seemed to finally look at him: "Just get out of here, I don't want to cooperate with you humans anymore, just like in the past, the ICBM plan of free fire is very good."

The voice that has faded from the youthful feeling is like a cold spring frozen in winter.Lindell is not very familiar with other members of the Roaring Commando. After all, even the species are different. These people are vaguely in awe... In addition, the bridge connecting them suddenly disappeared. For a moment even Duggan didn't know how to get along with this man.

The rest of them can play jokes on each other, but no one will tell Lindell's cold jokes. In fact, only those two people in the whole team regard him as an inseparable companion. Of course, Dugan also respects and admires him very much. The other party, but after all, he couldn't reach out to pluck that soft hair under great pressure.

"If the captain is still there, I definitely don't want you to do this."

Dugan said to him seriously: "He will definitely hope that you have more teammates, everyone relies on each other and obeys the unified command, instead of letting you fall into danger alone..."

As if the other party's words touched something crucial, Lindell reached out and grabbed the other party's skirt, but fortunately, he knew how to restrain himself and didn't use much effort: "obey the command and rely on each other?"

Those golden eyes seem to be able to spew out flames. They are obviously dry without a single tear, but people can read emotions from the inorganic eyes: "Who should I obey? What kind of human should I rely on?"

Now he was finally a full goblin, a power that came too late, too late, and there was no one in the Howling Commandos who could work with him.This body may still look not so strong in the ranks of adult humans, but this body made of real ether itself symbolizes high-density magic power.

"...Okay, I understand that you prefer to fight alone...but we are still teammates, right?"

Dugan touched the bridge of his nose, and said in an awkward voice, "At least you see, I can still fly a plane, drop you to a designated place, and pick you up on time...as long as you can't fly."

Even the Slavs, who were usually bald and drinking, seemed silent, while the Indian soldiers patted Lindell on the shoulder, and murmured something in the local dialect, which probably meant to send blessings.

The members of their team were assembled in different directions, and a group of tall and burly soldiers gathered in the room of the field hospital at this moment, cramming the small room to the brim.When fighting together, in order to improve the cohesion of the whole team, Steve used to chat with everyone tirelessly in private, but this guy would carry private goods after a while, so he entrusted everyone to take care and Give in to Lindell a little.

There are many reasons. After all, the other party is not a human being, and living in the form of a human is encouraging oneself; or his vision and thinking ability are different from humans, but his life experience is actually quite lacking; another example, compared with ordinary humans , their spiritual growth rate is slightly weaker, and by analogy, they should be younger than all of them.

As a result, the members of the commando team would always gather to complain in private, and only Captain America himself would have deep worries about the person who might be the most terrifying individual combat ability in the entire team.

Why didn't he just say "he's a kid"!The Slavs raised their necks, poured the rest of the spirits down their throats, and complained: "And even if you are shot, you won't die. I suspect that if you want to kill that guy, you must at least use a grenade. gun."

But now, all of them gathered in this small ward, looking at the young man on the bed with expressions of nervousness or worry.

——They finally decided to voluntarily complete the last entrustment of Captain America.

Hydra, as the name suggests, cuts off one head and grows more.In fact, Lindell's impression of this term is more of a mysterious creature living in the world, and it does not have the so-called head growth function.

It's just that today's human beings' impression of mystery is separated by a layer of rich imagination, and there are various reasons for naming it.After this battle, he also received one or two clearance missions, but most of the time, as a weapon that "lost its safety device", Lindell himself did not receive many orders to attack.

The reason why he joined the army is well known to the senior leaders, but why he has not left until now makes them feel a little puzzled.He is not loyal, at least they are not crazy enough to ask a non-human creature to be loyal to a certain country, and there is no long-cherished wish to realize human peace. The current situation can be said to be more of a way to pass time or relieve boredom.

It is said that "Fire Trees and Silver Flowers" is currently showing in the cinema, but Lindell himself is not very keen on these. Most of the time he watches movies to accompany his two friends. The last time he remembered the plot was "Modern Times", But that also seemed a long time ago—at that time, he still carried asthma medicine in his bag.

Four months after the "Well of Light" incident, Howard Stark finally got out of his busy work and exaggeratedly publicized that "I seem to have crawled back from the hell of work", but he did not hesitate. into new jobs.It's just that this person is very good at sneaking in while he's busy. When he occasionally finds free time, he will force Lindell to drink with him-the reason is that the other party has already grown a face that is enough to drink, and I can't find it anyway. There are people who are more free than you, why not give me some time.

This is very logical for robbers, but Lindell did not refuse. He would often order some milk or mango smoothie in the bar. Now he does not need to refrain from eating in order to save magic power, so due to Howard's own hobbies, semi He was forced to become a frequent visitor to the bar.

"So, what book have you been reading recently?"

Howard knew that the other party had the habit of reading: "Honestly, although I can make a lot of money from it, I'm kind of fed up with the world war."

"Letter from a Strange Woman, it is said that this book will also be made into a movie next year."

Lindell said: "So I borrowed it to take a look, but I couldn't understand it at all...and couldn't understand what there was worth reading."

"Ha ha ha ha."

The other party laughed a few times, "Your taste really changes quickly."

"But it doesn't matter, I still have a lot of time to learn about this."

"And I always felt like the war was almost over," Lindell said.

"At this time, you must have confidence in me. Apart from the efforts of the soldiers, there is also the continuous advancement of technology that can end the war. The last time I lost to Hydra due to strange reasons such as magic, I I feel very angry, this time it is impossible to progress slower than them."

Howard raised his eyebrows: "A talent team like you is definitely reluctant to let go, but if you are interested, Stark Industries welcomes you to take up a job—the kind that does not require a resume."

"...to do what? Weapon use demonstration?"

"Come be a security guard."

Lindell: "..."

He stared at Howard with an expression of "Are you not so good at your head?" The other party looked back calmly and said that with his extraordinary ingenuity and intelligence, there should be many people in this world who want to assassinate him. Of course he The bodyguard team is also world-class, with reasonable salary and complete benefits.

Of course, this was just a joke of his own. Howard didn't expect Lindell to agree to it at all. They left after a brief meeting. The businessman with a mustache patted Lindell on the shoulder lightly. Nothing about Rodgers was mentioned.

Two months later, the world's first bomb exploded successfully.

Another month later, World War II came to an end.
