757: Chapter 757 Is this some kind of punitive rooster? Absolutely!

"Theoretically, that's how it is," Clarissa said with a slight nod. Theoretically, anyone could indeed Cultivate.

Not just humans—even non-humans most likely could Cultivate.

Clarissa's world had other races, such as the Elf race.

The Water of Life sold in her shop was supplied by the Elf race.

Then again, in the past, they had indeed provided Clarissa with a lot of help.

Including that Blessing of Isis.

Of course, Clarissa didn't mistreat them either; for the Water of Life she sold, she would use source points to exchange for corresponding resources and return a portion to the Elf race.

After all this time, the Elf race had developed very well. They now traded and intermarried with the Grosster Empire, essentially sharing what they had.

They could also travel freely all over the world; the Elf race could be said to have fully opened up.

Elves were no longer "rare items," and people gradually grew accustomed to their existence.

But no matter what, Elves really couldn't be considered human; there might also be the power of Bloodline involved. However, even so, they still couldn't do without Cultivate.

If even they could Cultivate, it further proved that Cultivate itself was something for "all things."

The Cross-World Group also verified this point.

People from various different worlds Cultivate just the same; even in "magicless" worlds, they could still Cultivate.

Of course, the efficiency and progress of Cultivate were another matter, but whether one could Cultivate was a different story entirely.

"Then, could you..." Nick Fury turned his attention to Clarissa, attempting to get a Cultivation Technique from her, even if it was the trashiest one.

"Sorry," Clarissa refused bluntly. "No need to say more. First, I'm not familiar with you. Second, you are of no help to me. Third, you have nothing that interests me. Fourth, even if I gave it to you, it would be difficult for you to Cultivate. Leaving aside environmental issues, what about Cultivate resources? Do you have any? You don't look like you have any. Not to mention technology; they are completely different paths. Fifth, I don't like Nick Fury."

"..."

"..."

That last sentence was a total personal attack, right? Was it? It definitely was!

Nick Fury's face turned as dark as it could possibly be.

(ò_)

Nick Fury was completely stunned.

But did he dare say anything? Not really, because he could clearly sense it from Clarissa's expression and words.

She truly didn't take them seriously; her attitude was one of complete indifference.

Clarissa's power was too ridiculous; he even suspected she possessed incredibly troublesome spatial powers.

Moreover, they had absolutely no idea how Clarissa had traveled from New York to Afghanistan and rescued Tony.

Along with that power that killed over a dozen people in an instant.

Combined with her ability to travel between two worlds at will, Nick Fury truly felt that Clarissa was extremely difficult to handle.

He couldn't help but lower his hand, his fingers brushing against the pager-like communicator at his waist.

That was the communicator to summon that old woman, Captain Marvel.

He still had this invincible guardian as his final trump card.

Within Clarissa's perception, she was naturally aware of Nick Fury's movements. Having seen pop culture works, Clarissa naturally knew that the communicator at his waist was for summoning Captain Marvel.

As for how strong or powerful Captain Marvel was, Clarissa only had a rough estimate, but if they were to fight, Clarissa wouldn't fear her in the slightest.

However, she looked down on Captain Marvel.

Not for any other reason, but because of her conduct and her self-proclaimed status as a Universe "Guardian."

She would rather rush about among the stars, enjoying the worship of all living beings,

Than stay for even a minute longer in the hometown that birthed and raised her.

She possessed power that could turn clouds into rain at the flip of a hand, yet she always wore a high-and-mighty, impatient expression.

She always said, "I have to go save a wider world," as if the trivial matters of Earth were beneath her status.

As for her so-called identity as a Universe guardian, Clarissa only had a sneer in her heart.

To be honest, after seeing the plot, she only felt that this person was not one of them, and even less related to Earth! Even if she originated from Earth.

Not to mention her character; a self-centered, selfish person with great power who only believes in her own so-called justice—anything not to her liking is a "sin."

Thinking about it, Clarissa almost wanted to make Nick Fury call Captain Marvel back right now just to have a good fight.

Her hands were getting a bit itchy!

Hmm? What's wrong with her? She's frowning, her mood seems bad... I sense some anger... Is she about to make a move? No, did I provoke her? Where did I go wrong? Did I violate some taboo of hers?

Even though Nick Fury was preoccupied, he was still constantly observing Clarissa.

And Clarissa's expression, which she didn't hide at all, naturally fell into Nick Fury's eyes.

This caused the King of Agents to begin speculating on all sorts of possibilities.

"Let's leave it at that. I'll be heading back now." Clarissa stood up, preparing to take her leave.

"Wait, please hold on!" Nick Fury hurriedly stopped Clarissa and began his speech: "It's like this, I have an unreasonable request."

"Since you already know it's an unreasonable request, then don't make it." Clarissa shut him down directly.

"Uh... cough cough~" Nick Fury choked on his own saliva. "That... cough cough, no, no, I... cough cough~"

"Look at you, getting all anxious again," Clarissa said, feeling a slight sense of satisfaction at Nick Fury's state.

Keep pretending! It must be said, the effect was great; everyone watching the livestream was amused.

"Big Sister Head actually has a sharp-tongued side!"

"Awesome!"

"I love watching this!" Chen Mu was the most excited one.

"I want to invite you to become a consultant for the Avengers!" Nick Fury said to Clarissa, then returned to that mysterious posture, acting profound in a way that was actually quite repulsive.

Come on, quickly ask what the Avengers is! Nick Fury shouted excitedly in his heart. That way, he could explain his grand vision and greatest goal to her!

"Sorry, I refuse. It's not interesting at all. Goodbye." Clarissa had played enough and didn't want to talk about these things with him. After waving her hand, she vanished instantly.

Nick Fury stared with his one eye at the spot where Clarissa had disappeared.

Before long, his subordinates sent word that Clarissa had already returned home.

"Natasha, Agent Coulson, come here. Let's talk. Your thoughts on Clarissa..." Nick Fury said with a grave expression, beckoning the two over. "It seems the Avengers plan needs to be accelerated! Hmm... we can go discuss things with Professor X again..."

Compared to Magneto, Nick Fury was naturally more inclined to contact Professor X and his Mutant School. Only by cooperating with official entities like S.H.I.E.L.D. would there be a way forward!

It was also an important means to achieve peaceful coexistence between Mutant and humans!
