$235 Changes in Helsing (2nd and 3rd Update Combined)

As the steward of the Helsing Agency, Walter has never been a simple old man.

When he was young, he was called the God of Death, and even stood at the top of human combat power.

Using that special silk thread, he can easily strangle the existence of those monsters, and his strong physical fitness has also stepped into the extraordinary realm.

Just relying on physical fitness, he can fight vampires or werewolves, and those blood-sucking bastards are not even qualified to fight him.

It's a pity that humans can't escape the fate of aging after all.

Aging is terrible for all existences, which means that the muscles that have been tempered become loose, and the smooth and tough skin becomes full of wrinkles.

Have to face the pain of getting up at night to interrupt a complete sleep, and have to stay away from the past hobbies, whether it is appetite or the desire to reproduce.

Every day, I can feel my body quickly tired, and I can no longer concentrate on the things in front of me.

Even some subtle activities can make the body groan under the heavy burden.

Who can feel nothing when aging comes?

At least Walter, a strong man who once stood at the peak of humanity, couldn't do this.

Although he didn't want to admit his weakness, he knew that his strength was less than half of his peak period.

The fragile hand bones could no longer use special silk threads to pull the bodies of those monsters. Even if he cut those monsters, there would be scars on his hands.

Walter was unwilling!

"Luke, do you feel the breath of that housekeeper? The feeling of being mixed with sin and gradually becoming dull."

Jessica and Luke are now in their room with nothing to do. Jessica is talking to Luke while tidying up the bed. Her hands are a little unfamiliar.

After all, she used to not care about the quality of life at all. The state of being like a walking corpse is like a nightmare.

It is normal to get up sloppily every day. It is normal that Jessica, who is hungover, can't handle housework skillfully.

Fortunately, she is changing now.

"But what does that have to do with us? He is from Helsing, and his purpose is to kill monsters. Who can guarantee that the monsters that die in his hands are all bad guys?"

Luke sat on a chair beside the table and watched Jessica smoothing out the wrinkles on the bed bit by bit, with a smile on his face.

Everything in this room is brand new. There were no wrinkles on the bed when they came in.

If Jessica hadn't just laid on the bed, she wouldn't have to smooth it out bit by bit now.

Luke had no intention of exploring Walter's past. He never liked to know other people's secrets.

Sometimes, only when you don't know each other can you get along better. Luke firmly believes this.

"I just never thought that there are so many secrets in this world that I have never seen before."

Jessica stood up and looked at Luke in front of her, calmly examining the man she fell in love with.

Her movements seemed a little nervous, and her shaking hands could be seen with the naked eye.

"Okay, Jessica, instead of thinking about this problem, you might as well have a good sleep. Thinking about this kind of thing is not suitable for you and me."

Luke stood up and walked to Jessica's side, and directly hugged his lover in his arms.

This man who looks a little silly knows how to cherish his lover after all. He is a trustworthy person.

"I am a person who only cares about the present, and now... I only have you in front of me."

Luke reached out and stroked Jessica's face, letting the two people's eyes meet.

"Luke, I know, but I think the battle must at least be meaningful. I have seen some of Orlac's memories. Compared with him, I am just an unlucky guy who has committed a blood debt."

Jessica did not avoid Luke's eyes. She was very serious about this full communication.

After seeing Orlac's noble battle, Jessica had more doubts about her own existence.

She knew that she could not be that noble and pure.

"Are you trying to say that justice is always empty?"

Luke grinned:

"Is there any more just fight than fighting for the survival space of those who cannot resist? Or is there anything more justified than fighting for the weak?"

A metallic luster can be seen on Luke's body shining along his skin.

Steel nerves!

The talent that the barbarians can learn and master at the earliest batch, and it is also one of the most important talents of the barbarians.

When suffering fatal injuries, they will resist this death with the power of blood.

In the next three seconds, they can almost ignore all injuries.

The damage reduction of up to 9.5% is enough for a barbarian warrior to win a chance to turn defeat into victory.

To kill a barbarian who has mastered the talent of "Steel Nerves", in addition to forcibly crushing them with power that they cannot bear, only continuous powerful attacks can do it.

An attack that can only be released once in a long time cannot take away a barbarian with the talent of "Steel Nerves".

Luke just has a huge defect in controlling his body, but he is indeed a very talented warrior.

"Luke, I'm just saying, you can't do anything wrong?"

Jessica didn't pay too much attention to the changes in Luke. She spoke to Luke with concern, her arms around Luke's neck, a little hard.

"It's enough for me to remember that I am a human being. It doesn't matter whether I am right or wrong when facing the existence that hurts humans. When facing humans, I will only stop the evil that is happening in front of me. Jessica, you haven't seen the pictures recorded in the Holy Mountain, so you are hesitant about this."

Luke tried to organize his words, paused for a moment, and then continued:

"That's what Bul-Katho did. Only when he did it at that time, it was called upholding justice, but he couldn't uphold justice for the whole world, so what he did afterwards was called revenge."

Luke took out the "fairy tale" that recorded Maddock's life from his backpack and put it in Jessica's hand.

"Jessica, this is the 'fairy tale' of Maddock's ancestors. Maybe you can understand something from it."

Luke turned around and sat back in his chair, looking at Jessica, who was a little confused, with a calm look in his eyes.

Luke is not smart, but he is not stupid.

He is just a little too straightforward.

Born on the streets, he has some bad habits, but he is still kind and upright.

"Okay, I'll take a look at this 'fairy tale', but Matthew seems to be looking for that Hellboy."

Jessica calmed down and said to Luke. Matthew's actions were not a secret to these barbarian recruits.

"That's Matthew's business. We only need to show up when we need to fight. Now, beautiful lady, do you want to experience this soft bed?"

Luke picked up Jessica horizontally and said with a smile.

...

Matthew should be the one who follows the rules the most, because his job is a lawyer.

In addition to taking advantage of loopholes in the rules, lawyers have to maintain the existence of the rules themselves.

After all, this group relies on the existence of rules to have a living space, so they have become advocates of the rules.

But now Matthew has some different views on the rules.

It's not the kind of survival of the fittest, but he really realizes that the rules only protect those who abide by the rules, and those who try to break the rules should be dealt with in the same way.

Human rules only apply to throwing thunder, and will not be followed by those monsters.

So what he wants to do is to make those monsters know how to respect humans.

Even though this goal is still far away, it does not prevent him from taking action for this.

Coincidentally, demons are such existences.

Despise the rules, and gain strength and sense of existence from breaking all rules. So Matthew does not have any mercy or saintly mentality towards demons.

Even when facing Hellboy, he is still hostile. Because he always feels that the existence of Hellboy itself is full of doubts.

Pure-blooded demons and pure humans are not surprising, but the hybrid of humans and demons is a very unusual thing.

Demons will not easily give birth to blood descendants, because this is to share their own power.

Matthew feels that he needs to meet Hellboy, just in time to understand the unknown secrets of Helsing.

He is full of vigilance against aliens.

Matthew is restraining his footsteps and walking along the passage.

Through sound and breath, he can easily find paths that ordinary people cannot find.

And Helsing's basement is such a place.

Not far behind him, Blade was doing the same thing.

The difference was that Blade did not come following the breath of Hellboy, nor did he come following Matthew's figure.

He followed the fear that kept coming from his body step by step, in order to find the source of his fear.

The feeling of uncontrolled blood made him very uncomfortable, and the blood-sucking bastards that made him uncomfortable had become ashes under the knife. This time he planned to overcome his fear in the usual way.

…

"Miss, I think our cooperation with SHIELD is still a bit abrupt, at least it is not suitable for this time period."

Walter was stating his views in Intergula's office. This old strong man could clearly tell that Steve and his group would not stay in their rooms obediently.

This is not a special ability, but a life experience as an old man.

Steve and his group put a lot of pressure on him. Even though he was an old warrior who had experienced many battles, he could not deny that his condition was rapidly declining.

At this time, he adjusted his gloves and was ready to deal with the battle at any time.

In order to fight better, Walter had to spend some time to adjust his condition in advance.

After all, he is no longer the same as before. Some less "intense" battles can make him feel the groaning sound of his body being overwhelmed, and the feeling of weakness from the lumbar spine is full of traces of years.

"Walter, I know the style of SHIELD very well, but what do they want from us? There is only one person here that they will notice, and that is Acardo."

Intergula's glasses are reflecting the light, and this heroic woman is still calm.

Intergula, the descendant of Van Helsing, is always a brave warrior.

She has never learned to compromise completely, and SHIELD can only get the result of mutual use from her.

SHIELD is very large. Even though Helsing is a semi-official organization in the UK, it does not have the energy to confront SHIELD head-on.

This cooperation is actually her limited "compromise". This "compromise" is a retreat for Helsing to take a step forward.

Nick Fury successfully persuaded Intergula with the exchange of high-tech products and intelligence, and let Helsing try to help the mysterious side of SHIELD.

This is also the result that Akado acquiesced.

And Intergula is seeking a higher political status. The semi-official status alone cannot satisfy this woman with an extremely strong heart.

"Maybe we can't just compromise?"

Walter's fingers can see the patterns formed by the silk threads reflecting the metallic light, which are similar to the patterns of the catapults that children play when they are young, but the patterns in his hands are more complicated.

"Acardo will teach them a lesson, Walter. I remember you said, 'Graceful aging is the romance of the British'. Sometimes the elderly are not suitable for being in the limelight."

Intergula put a cut cigar in his mouth, and Walter naturally lit the cigar for Intergula.

"Do you need me to deal with the subsequent troubles?"

Walter took back the match in his hand before speaking.

He never does two things at the same time, which is about demeanor.

"I think Acardo will handle it, but I have to trouble you to inform Silas and let her stay quietly in her room. I don't want the people of SHIELD to turn their target to her."

The smoke in Intergula's mouth completed a cycle with the words, and the aroma of cigars came from the room.

"Does the Vatican need further negotiations? They haven't given us an explanation about Alexander Anderson."

Walter took a step back obediently and lowered his head.

The special silk thread between his fingers also disappeared.

"No, SHIELD will help us complete the negotiation."

A strange light flashed across Integula's glasses.

SHIELD wants to use Helsing, and Helsing also wants to use SHIELD.

You have to know that in terms of official power, no matter what agency it is, it has to give SHIELD some face, after all, the authority of this agency is too great.

All major countries want to get involved here, and the Vatican is in urgent need of this political power.

As one of the top forces on the mysterious side, the church's political power is so weak that it is a bit ridiculous.

Political status depends on national strength, and the national strength of the Vatican can be described as weak.

"As you wish, Miss."

Walter replied without raising his head.

For him, "butler" is the first identity, and the god of death Walter is old.
