Chapter 1241 The person selected by the body (3)
Pietro Maximov...is the person chosen by the "remains"!
This kind of words sounds quite subtle, just like the French Joan of Arc, who was chosen by fate, and then started an awesome life, and later generations will collectively refer to this kind of people... "saint"!
"Wait, you mean...Pietro, he was chosen by the "Saint's Remains"? "
Hawke's face looked a little weird. He looked left and right, up and down, but couldn't tell that this guy looked a little bit like a 'saint'.
The existences that can be recognized as "saints" in history have all caused more than two miracles after death and made outstanding contributions while alive. Their corpses can even protect the soil and water, which can be called a gospel for mankind.
And this kind of person has often performed various miraculous deeds before his or her lifetime.
Pietro... any miraculous deeds?
Hawke thought about it carefully, and then shook his head firmly.
It seems, should, probably, probably... they don't exist. In his impression, apart from Pietro's ability to cause trouble and even give Professor X a headache, there seems to be nothing that can be called a 'miracle' Deeds.
"...Are you sure it's Pietro Maximov?" Hawke rubbed his temples and asked in disbelief: "Could it be that you heard wrong? For example, you missed a few words. , or maybe they have the same name?”
"Hey, hey, Uncle Hawke, you look down on me too much!"
Quicksilver has a black hair, how unpopular he is.
"No, no, no, it's not that I look down on you, it's just...a surprise." Hawke waved his hands awkwardly and laughed dryly.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth." Jin Bin looked calm and said: "And only those selected by the "remains" can walk out of this forest. This is one of the reasons why we seek cooperation. "
"Get out of these woods? What do you mean?"
Hearing this, Hawke and Quicksilver's hearts tightened, as expected it was not that simple.
"It's difficult to describe it clearly in words, so I'll let you experience it for yourself." Kingpin said mysteriously: "Pick up the saint's body and walk around with us, and you will naturally know what it means."
Hawke and Quicksilver looked at each other and decided to believe them temporarily for the sake of the saint's body.
After Hawke picked up the ear parts of the saint's body, he confirmed that they were correct and handed them to Quicksilver: "I'd better leave them to you, Pietro, after all, you are the chosen one."
Kuaiyin hesitated for a moment and took the body's ears.
Although he still doesn't believe that he was chosen by a body, it does not prevent him from keeping it for the time being.
Kingpin and Bullseye walked in front, while Hawke and Quicksilver were about five meters apart.
The four of them walked along the winding path in the forest, not very fast. After walking about a hundred meters, Kingpin stopped.
"No matter what happens in a while, don't be surprised." Jin Bin stopped at a corner, casually pinched five fingerprints on the hard bark, and then turned back and said meaningfully.
"You don't have to worry about that."
Kuaiyin proudly held his hands and said, "What scene have we not seen before? It's not that simple to scare us."
Kingpin and Bullseye just smiled at Quicksilver's big words and didn't say anything more.
Remaining silent, the four of them walked some distance, passing a dilapidated wooden house on the way, which made Hawke and Quicksilver take a few more glances.
In such a remote place, there is actually a wooden house?
Some doubts arose in Hawk's heart and he couldn't help but take a few more glances. However, Kingpin and Bullseye did not stop and continued to move around the wooden house, giving up his idea of going there to take a look.
After walking another hundred meters along the winding path, the unchanging forest scenery made people a little irritated.
"Hey, where are we going?" Quicksilver couldn't help but ask.
"It'll be there soon."
Jin Bin answered him calmly, and then quickened his pace.
After passing another corner, Jinpin stopped again, then pointed to the tree trunk next to him and said, "Did you see this? The mark I left when I came here last time."
Quicksilver and Hawke looked at the trunk of the tree. There were five thick fingerprints on it, and their expressions suddenly changed.
"What the hell is going on?!" Kuaiyin looked a little ugly. He was sure that Jin was not up to something. The mark on the tree trunk was indeed what he left last time.
Jin did not explain, turned around and continued walking, saying as he walked: "Don't worry, you will know soon."
Soon, not long after passing the corner.
The four of them saw it again. The dilapidated wooden house appeared in front of them like a ghost.
"Now, I believe you should understand, right?"
With a heavy look on his face, Kingpin exhaled: "All of us are trapped in this damn forest. Bullseye and I have tried countless times, but we will come back here every time, without exception. "
"It's like an infinite loop in space."
Bullseye finally spoke, his voice extremely hoarse: "We have tried many methods, but we have never tried to get close to the wooden house. Perhaps this is the key to solving the mystery."
"If that's the case, then why don't you try it?" Hawke expressed doubts and a hint of vigilance.
You clearly know that the key to solving the mystery lies in this dilapidated wooden house, so why do you choose to seek their help over the near and far?
"Lester, go show them to them." Jin turned to Bullseye and shouted without explaining too much.
Bullseye pulled out the M1 from his waist and walked towards the cabin step by step.
"Pay attention, soon...you will understand."
Kingpin lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing Bullseye, and lowered his hands on his chest.
Seemingly infected by his emotions, Hawke and Quicksilver couldn't help but feel a tense atmosphere. They swallowed and stared at the bullseye intently.
Bullseye was seen walking to the front of the cabin and standing still.
At the same time, the door of the tattered wooden house was slowly pushed open from the inside. The old wooden door made a harsh sound, and the face of a middle-aged white man came into view.
The middle-aged white man's dress clearly showed that he was also a mercenary.
The only difference is that most of the equipment on his body is old equipment from decades ago. The camouflage combat uniform looks like the US military style. The trouser legs and cuffs have been washed white, and there are still a few hanging on the chest. Bronze medal.
"Who is that?"
Hawk looked at the strange man and asked Kingpin.
"He is Lester's father. No one knows his real name. He only has the codename 'Kingmaker.'" Kingpin stared at the man and said in a deep voice: "When Lester was eighteen years old, He set fire to the prison with his own hands... and burned his father to death!"
