Want something to drink? Richard started rummaging through the fridge, "I don't have much left here, as well as black tea and some coffee...... Oh and milk, you guys see what you want? ”

"Then please give me black tea." Hawkeye removed her apron. The family man-type superhero seems to be quite at home here.

"We're not here to play." "Like I just mentioned, we have some very important questions to ask. ”

Unexpectedly, Richard had expected Stark to come and ask this and that, and even the answers to the questions had already been thought out in advance.

His questions are nothing more than about the source of Ultraman's power, whether Richard is an earthling, and what his purpose is...... And so on and so forth. Anyway, it's probably similar to what the boiled egg asked before.

He has slowly come up with a whole series of answers to this kind of question. For example, the light from a distant unknown galaxy has come to meet the crisis that you are about to face when you return to Earth, for example, he has been assimilated into a new life form by the light that has been passed down from generation to generation......

So this version of the description, strictly speaking, Richard is no longer human, but has assimilated into a part of Ultraman. However, he also expressed his identification with his human identity, and in his heart he felt that he was still a human being.

It's both light and people, that's what Richard tells others, and that's how he positions himself.

Stark was clearly not satisfied with his answer, he felt that the explanation was too vague, and many key points were deliberately obscured. But the other Avengers didn't mind, especially Captain America. The captain had actually noticed his identity a long time ago, but still treated him as a friend.

"I still have a question, though." Team America said.

Richard nodded, "You can just ask, Captain." ”

"It's about the movies you've made before, the crises and the powerful monsters...... Are all of that real? ”

Everyone else pricked up their ears and glared at his answer.

This is indeed a matter of concern to all of them. It would have been nice to say that those series of movies were just the director's fantasy, but now they know that these movies are supervised by Ultraman himself, who is the main character.

Does that mean that the story in the movie really happened?

Those world-destroying horror monsters really exist?

Richard groaned slightly.

"I can't say it's completely fake, that would be irresponsible." "But there's one thing I can say." At least for now, something like Gatanjee won't happen...... At least not in this world. But a similar situation is not ruled out. ”

"Something like that?" Team America noticed the word, "Like?" ”

"For example, when the darkness of the human heart on the entire earth is thick to a certain limit, it is gathered and embodied by people intentionally or unintentionally into something else similar to Gatanjee." Richard said lightly, "In that case, the world will face the same calamity. ”

"The darkness of the human heart?" Stark was clearly a little unimpressed by this statement, "So how do we understand this concept?" Does littering count? ”

Stark is the kind of person who puts science first and only believes in what can be explained by science. The darkness of the human heart is a bit too idealistic for him, and it is fundamentally contrary to science.

"I'm not kidding, Mr. Stark." Richard said calmly, "It's a very serious topic. The darkness of the human heart is quite terrifying, and that can be a very powerful force.

I didn't pay enough attention to this until the day before yesterday when I had the support of the people and felt the courage, the hope, and the faith of humanity...... The light of humanity. The light that came together became a part of my power, helping me reach a new realm, gaining enough power to defeat compound Mephistopheles. ”

He paused, looked at Stark, and continued, "That's a fact that can't be denied, Mr. Stark, you were there at the time, and you saw the whole process. Since the light of humanity possesses such great power, it is easy to imagine that the darkness of humanity can summon something even more terrifying. ”

It's a fact that the darkness of the human heart is an extremely terrifying thing in any Ultraman series, and sometimes it can even be transformed into something that even a god can surpass.

"You're right." The American team was the first to break the silence and nodded in agreement, "I have seen the products of the dark side of the human heart with my own eyes. Sometimes people can create more demons than you can imagine. ”

He changed his words and asked Richard, "So will you want to fight with us in the future?" ”

Richard smiled, "You mean to join the Avengers." ”

"That's right." Team America nodded, "Together, we can stop that from happening, and we can make this world a better place – not just materially, but spiritually." ”

"Sounds good, but I'm still passing." Richard smiled, "You know what? Fury asked me a similar question when the Avengers were first formed, and I refused at the time, and nothing will change in the future. ”

"May I ask why?"

"Because I don't like organizations and teams." "Where there are people, there are conflicts of interest, no matter any organization or group, and I'm not interested in that," Richard said. ”

"The Avengers are different." Captain America said firmly, "We are not governed by any organization or agency, and there is no interest in all the actions of the Avengers." We exist only to help the people, it's as simple as that. ”

"That's just for now." Richard shrugged, "I said, where there are people, there will be interests, and the Avengers can't avoid that." There are a lot of people who don't like the Avengers right now, who act in defiance of local orders and meddle in the tasks of the government, military, and intelligence agencies...... By the way, I heard that you also went to Eastern Europe before and prevented a missile crisis? It's great, but it's only going to make more and more people unhappy. ”

He turned to Stark: "Mr. Stark has a lot of dealings with government departments, and I guess Mr. Stark is responsible for wiping the Avengers' butts in the end?" So tell me about it, are the high-level countries friendly to the Avengers? ”

Stark didn't say anything, but his face wasn't pretty.

Richard knew he had guessed right.

The American team was silent for a moment and said, "We will carry it." The Avengers don't spoil because that's the value of our existence. ”

"I'm glad you're optimistic, Captain, but unfortunately not everyone seems to think so." Richard looked at Stark, "Mr. Stark doesn't seem to be that confident. ”

"Stark?" The U.S. team turned to Stark.

Stark, who was silent for a long time, raised his head: "He's right." Maybe the Avengers should consider shifting the mode, and there are some rules that we need to follow. ”

"Are you serious?" The American team frowned, "Are you saying that we should also obey the government's commands?" ”

"I mean, at least it should be considered." Stark said.

"So what's the difference between us and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents then? I think the name Avenger makes sense in itself, and we can't ......"

"Okay, okay, you can go back and quarrel again." Richard waved his hand, "But that's my argument - any organization will go bad in the end, even the Avengers." So thanks for the invitation, Captain, but I'm fine on my own. If nothing is pressing, let it be for today, I have a lot of other arrangements. ”
