Chapter 1949 Beehive (Please give me a monthly ticket!!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!!!)
Ward and May... can be considered an ill-fated relationship. This matter can be traced back to a long time ago, when May left the front line due to psychological problems and concentrated on civilian work. Nick Fury always felt sorry for this matter, so when the Avengers were established at that time, he asked Phil Coulson to bring May to the Avengers. On the surface, she was a civilian in charge of communication, but in fact Nick Fury secretly gave her orders to patiently monitor everyone in the team.
Mei felt that she should be able to do this job. After all, although she had psychological problems and could not be on the front line in person, she could at least do this little thing, so she agreed.
Ward was also recruited into the team by Phil at that time. Ward's adoptive father Garrett had a good relationship with Phil. After all, Garrett was a veteran agent with much better qualifications than Phil, and Ward was a well-known rising star, so he also successfully joined the team.
But Ward's style of doing things is different from that of ordinary agents. He works alone. He rarely partners with others and always works alone.
Phil felt that this style would affect his future, so he asked Mei to teach him.
Speaking of Phil, until now everyone in SHIELD feels sorry for this good old man. Phil's character is not to be underestimated, he is a good guy. The key is that he is not only a good old man, but also very good at his job. He is not that kind of saintly bitch. As long as this kind of person doesn't have any problems, he will have a good future.
A person's popularity is still very useful in the workplace. The key is that others have strong business capabilities, which is very impressive.
Unfortunately, I stood on the wrong side and did the wrong thing.
Phil had been implicated before because of Nick Fury's affairs. At that time, everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. knew that Phil was Nick Fury's die-hard fan. When he was taken away for investigation, Phil didn't believe that Nick Fury was Hydra at all. Even if other people didn't deny the relationship, they wouldn't make a fuss. But Phil was very excited and even quarreled with the investigators. No one expected that such a good guy would have such a violent side.
In the end, it was the newly appointed Director Hill who tried his best to save Phil, but unexpectedly, Phil still fell because of Nick Fury.
Phil is a very capable person, and he is also good at ideological work. If he were in a red country, he would definitely be a good candidate for a political commissar. He was the one who relieved Mei of her ideological burden, and in the end, they even had some ambiguity.
But Ward intervened and had sex with May.
In short, the two of them didn't succeed.
But later, the story of Garrett and Alexander was exposed, and the diehards of both of them were investigated and hunted down. After all, those could only be Hydra, and Ward also defected, and May was originally going to hunt him down.
But in the end... Mei was actually soft-hearted and let Ward get away.
"Hello... Mei!"
Ward's voice broke the ice.
Mei looked at Ward in disbelief. When Ward escaped, Mei shot him in the face, destroying half of his face. He should have been disfigured, but now it seems that not only has the wound disappeared, there is not even a trace of it, as if he had not been injured at all.
May looked at Ward, stared for a moment, and shouted, "No! You are not Ward! Who are you?!!"
Ward touched his face and smiled bitterly: "I am indeed Ward, dear May, absolutely true."
"No...you're not him!"
Ward stopped smiling now.
He is indeed not Ward, but that doesn't matter.
The important thing is that he got what he wanted.
"Nick Fury..." Ward smiled again and looked at the tied-up Nick Fury: "I finally found you."
Mei raised her gun and shot without any hesitation!
Ward just stood there, not moving at all.
Then the bullet penetrated his body unhindered, but the next second, the wounds on his body began to heal.
It wasn't the kind of self-healing like growing flesh, but it just recovered slowly without a drop of blood in the whole process!
"What kind of monster are you?!!!"
Instead, Nick Fury looked up at Ward: "I didn't expect the legend to be true, you really exist - Hive!"
Ward was stunned, then smiled and shook his head: "You are worthy of being me, Nick Fury. You even know this."
May was confused. He looked at Nick Fury and asked, "What is he?"
"A mutant. A legendary mutant."
Beehive, an ancient legend. Long ago in the Americas, there was a young Mayan named Alveus, who was originally just a warrior from a defeated tribe. In those days, according to Mayan tradition, such defeated prisoners of war would be sacrificed by the hostile tribe.
The human sacrifice ceremony is a way for the Maya to worship the gods. In order to thank the gods for their contributions to mankind and to satisfy the greed of the demons to delay the arrival of the end of the world, the Maya held ceremonies on a series of special days to worship various gods, and the most precious offering used for sacrifice was human blood.
The Maya not only placed the heads of captives on the altar, but the king and nobles also had to painfully bleed from sensitive parts of their tongues as sacrifices, or cripple their limbs, endure torture, and sacrifice themselves. There were many different ways of offering sacrifices, the most common of which was to cut open the chest and dig out the heart. The sacrificed person was first painted blue, and wore a pointed headdress on his head, and then died in the square in front of the temple or on the top of the pyramid. He was laid on his back with the raised altar under his body, so that his chest and abdomen bulged and his head and limbs drooped, so as to facilitate the "surgery" of opening the chest. Four priests grabbed his limbs and tried to straighten him as much as possible. The "executioner" was the protagonist of the ritual. He accurately cut the victim's ribs, reached into the wound, grabbed the beating heart and put it on a plate, and handed it to the high priest who presided over the ceremony.
In addition to bloody sacrifices, the Maya also vented their thirst for blood in other ways. For example, they brutally slaughtered prisoners of war. The Bonampak murals faithfully recorded this bloody scene. The murals were all made in a relatively simple three-hall temple. The murals in the three halls echoed each other: the left hall showed the preparations for the ceremony, with a relaxed and expectant mood; the middle hall was a fierce scene of conquering the enemy and slaughtering prisoners of war, emphasizing the life theme of life and death, joys and sorrows; the right hall showed the completion of the celebration, showing solemnity and grandeur in the warm and cheerful atmosphere.
This temple is therefore named "Painting Temple". The murals in the central hall are particularly shocking. The bottom row of the picture is the natives holding spears and various ethnic emblems and totems to watch and celebrate this bloody trial, and the middle row is the captives who are about to be executed. On the top steps of the mural, the king is graceful and domineering, holding a spear in his right hand, wearing a feather crown and tiger skin armor, looking extremely majestic; opposite him, on the left, there are four nobles standing in a row, wearing various strange animal helmets with tribal totems, tiger skin battle robes and clothes embroidered with hieroglyphs, and jade pendants, jade ornaments, and feather crafts all over their bodies.
The prisoners waiting to be executed at the bottom of the stairs are naked and kneeling in front of the king, crying for mercy. There is a severed head at their feet, and another prisoner has collapsed on the stairs. The pain and despair of the prisoners and the arrogance of the princes form a sharp contrast. The modeling is precise and vivid, deeply touching, showing the profound skills of Mayan realistic art.
The claim that blood can give gods a strong vitality is really self-deception. Isn't it clear who wants to see blood? In the golden age of the classical period when the Maya developed peacefully, there was no external threat, so there was no need for bravery and martial arts. It was only after the frequent wars in the 10th century that they felt the need for "bloodthirstiness" and that they had to use the baptism of blood and fire to ensure the competitive vitality of the nation's survival and development.
Blood has become their cultural incentive mechanism! It is not that their gods and idols need blood to enhance their abilities, but that they themselves need to witness and participate in bloody events frequently. Culture is a metaphorical symbolic mechanism, and as a cultural sacrificial ritual activity, it has a subtle educational function. In addition to implicitly teaching people to obey, respect, and identify, the activity of killing people to sacrifice to gods mainly teaches people to dare to fight and dare to die, and even symbolically allows people to vent their desire to kill and obtain alternative satisfaction.

The Aztecs, who were greatly influenced by Mayan culture, had a wonderful example. They even signed a special agreement with neighboring tribes to resume wars regularly, for no other reason than to capture captives for human sacrifice. This was really child's play! The Mayans' "child's play" was more formalized. They built many "basketball courts" and used the victory or defeat of the game to decide the object of human sacrifice. Everything was done for the strengthening of the vitality of the nation. Therefore, blood became the theme word and red became the main color.
There are two sources of sacrifices for the ceremony: prisoners of war and natives, mostly men. In their culture, death in battle and as a sacrifice are both noble deaths, and both can lead to heaven, so once someone is chosen as a sacrifice, it is an honor for both the individual and the family. The priests determine which day and time a child born is suitable for sacrifice based on astrology, so the fate of the sacrificed person is determined from birth. After the child is chosen, he or she will leave his or her parents and be sent to another family to be raised until the day of sacrifice. For such a boy, the true and complete meaning of his or her existence is to die in the temple.
Alveus is such an unlucky guy, but at the moment when his chest was cut open, he awakened his superpowers. The mutation turned him into a cell parasite, which survived permanently by occupying other people's bodies, and also gained their memories in the process, and he could manifest a head with tentacles. The Hive can release parasites to devour humans as nourishment, or use parasitism to influence other people and dominate their will for control.
In his time, he was like a god and was revered by everyone.
But because of his cruelty, all Mayans began to fear him, so they united and exiled him.
Mayan civilization, Aztec civilization, etc., are all very mysterious to modern people. Moreover, in the distant past, perhaps due to magic or technology, the Hive was exiled to a mysterious space that no one knew. But because he was worshipped as a god, he still has his worshippers. His worshippers established a secret society with the purpose of bringing the Hive back. With the great geographical discoveries, South America and Central America were discovered by colonists one after another.
The worship of the Beehive also spread to Europe, and eventually the community gradually developed into the Hydra.
After all, the Hive was only sealed, but it could still communicate with the outside world. In those days when demons were rampant, a god who could truly respond to believers was still very attractive. So the Hydra began to grow.
They began to offer sacrifices to the hive every twenty years. The sacrifices had to be knowledgeable elites, and the hive would give them some blessings.
Only those within Hydra know what the specific blessing is.
By the way, this Hydra is not the one created by Red Skull. There is a difference between the two. Strictly speaking, the one created by Red Skull is simply a knockoff. Strictly speaking, Red Skull's Hydra is just a white glove funded by the real Hydra Society. Otherwise, how do you think it is possible for Red Skull, a scientist, to develop such a powerful force in such a short time?
The defeat of Red Skull's Hydra doesn't mean the Hydra community has fallen.
On the contrary, this secret society has always existed and has always been connected with Red Skull's Hydra.
The manipulator behind this secret society is the Hive.
This guy is actually a South American rainforest version of Apocalypse.
But unlike Tianqi, Hive has been receiving information from the outside world for thousands of years. He is not an old antique who knows nothing. On the contrary, this guy is very knowledgeable and a real old monster!
