Chapter 464: Criminals
“……”
"Well, it looks like I'm thinking too much."
In the antique shop, Li Ran looked at the items obtained from opening the box for the second time, and his originally hot brain gradually calmed down.
He glanced up at the legend on the data panel that had shrunk a lot in the blink of an eye, and a feeling of heartache arose.
[Legendary]: 584355
"Calm down, it's still a good deal to honestly accumulate legends."
Taking a deep breath and calming his heart, Li Ran withdrew his gaze from the exchange panel of the system with his great perseverance, and said comfortingly.
"As long as you honestly brush the legend, you will be able to open the [Golden Treasure Chest] sooner or later."
While comforting himself with the idea of continuing to open the treasure chest, Li Ran put his eyes on the two newly opened character cards in the inventory, and his eyes flickered.
……
"Ultron, report on the vision?"
In the Avengers Building, Tony walked out of his laboratory and immediately gave instructions to the artificial intelligence monitoring everything in the hall.
"Understood, Mr. Stark."
Hearing Tony's order, Ultron nodded his head humanely, and the blue light in his eyes flickered.
Immediately after, I saw a virtual screen in mid-air naturally generated there.
The video playing on the screen is the battle scene of Johnny and the Fantastic Four who are now transformed as Vision.
"The power of the Mind Gem seems to have changed the structure of Vision's body......"
In the picture, Vision shows his various special abilities in the battle of the remaining three Fantastic Fours, first controlling his body to float into the air in the face of the collision of the stone man, and then when facing the retractable rubber arm of Mr. Fantastic Reed, the whole body still penetrates his body like a phantom.
"Let it have the ability to freely change its own density, in the previous battle with the Fantastic Four, Vision has shown the ability to penetrate objects at will, and at the same time, perhaps because Vision's body is from the relationship with Johnny of Thunderbolt, and it also has the ability to fire at high temperatures......"
In conjunction with Ultron's introduction, the vision in the picture faces the invisible position created by Susan, and the mind gem embedded in his forehead suddenly emits a scorching light to hit the position in front of him.
"According to Dr. Reed, the temperature of the light emitted by the vision is close to the highest temperature of the thunderbolt, and it is clear that the Mind Gem not only gives Johnny new life, but also strengthens him."
"Looks good."
Looking up at Vision's ability to use freely on the screen, Tony couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said, "What about memory, does he recall his original identity?" ”
Although Vision has now adapted to his abilities, Tony has not forgotten that the other party's other identity is Thunderbolt Fire in the Fantastic Four.
"Not yet."
Ultron shook his head lightly at Tony's inquiry.
"Although the Fantastic Four have made an effort to introduce his past to Vision, it is clear that it has not played a very effective role. Obviously, although the power of the Mind Gem successfully awakened it, it also had an impact on Vision's or Thunderbolt Johnny's original memories. ”
"However, although he lost his memory as a thunderbolt, Vision did not have any problems in dealing with the world, on the contrary, under the power of the Mind Gem, he was able to quickly adapt to everything in reality."
"Maybe that's a good thing for Johnny......"
Inside the Avengers Tower, while Tony and Ultron were talking about Vision, Natasha joined in with her slightly hoarse voice.
"When did you come back?"
Turning his head, he saw Natasha walking slowly in front of me.
"Just now."
Looking up at the screen projected by Ultron, Natasha's gaze lingered on Vision's body for a few seconds before she continued, "When you discussed memories of Vision and Johnny. ”
From Natasha's answer, Tony knew that the other party should have been here for a while, but what made him more concerned was his reaction to Vision as a thunderbolt.
Sensing the expression in Tony's eyes, Natasha immediately opened her mouth to give a reason: "You should also know that Johnny's character, although not bad, often causes unnecessary trouble in many cases, and during the Fantastic Four period, it often leads to some unnecessary problems and even some damage because of his character. Now that he has transformed into Vision, the originally unruly Thunderbolt has become rational, and as a superhero, it is undoubtedly the best change. ”
Standing in the shoes of the Fantastic Four and others, Johnny's changes are a little difficult for them to accept, and it takes time to get used to it.
And for Natasha, the role of rational vision is obviously far greater than that of an unruly thunderbolt.
Although S.H.I.E.L.D. has been disbanded, its habits as a super agent are still deeply imprinted into Natasha's habits of mind.
"Perhaps......"
Faced with the reason given by Natasha, Tony didn't know how to react.
He was silent for a moment, and then turned the conversation back to the question about Penglai.
"Master Ye, how are they doing?"
After the incident of [Ultimate Creature], although Master Ye successfully survived, the situation was not so good. In particular, the seal on the body of the [Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon] has become unstable due to the frequent use of power before, which almost causes even greater problems.
"Ah Xing has already returned to Penglai with Master Ye and the sleeping Ah Bao."
Taking Tony's inquiry, Natasha replied to the situation of Ip Man and the others.
"According to Ah Xing, although Ah Bao, who awakened the remnant soul of the immortal before, successfully swallowed the [Ultimate Creature], this power also caused a huge burden on him, especially the [Ultimate Creature] swallowed into Ah Bao's body was not so easy to settle down, so after thinking about it, Ah Xing decided to take the injured Master Ye and the sleeping Ah Bao back to Penglai and ask if there was any way for the immortals in Penglai."
"This is still a piece of news that is difficult to judge."
Faced with Natasha's answer, the expression on Tony's face was a little complicated.
The departure of Ah Xing and the others was not beyond Tony's expectations, but when he thought that with their departure, the combat power of Penglai, which meant that he had originally relied on had also disappeared, made him feel a little uneasy.
After all, Tony has not forgotten that the existence of the Holy Lord has always threatened the Avengers, and even the entire world.
"I just hope that the Foundation can bring some good news."
Such a thought flashed in his heart, but Tony didn't put all his hopes on others, he turned his gaze to sweep Ultron in front of him, and the look in his eyes couldn't help but flicker.
In order to fight the threat from the Holy Lord, Tony has never given up his plan.
And Ultron is the first and most critical step in this plan.
……
"Failed!"
Western Europe, among the ruined bases of Hydra.
Pitero, who turned into an afterimage, returned to the base, looked at Wanda and said in silence.
"According to news reports, the Avengers have defeated [Ultimate Creature]."
Boom –
Hearing the bad news from her brother Pietro, Wanda's eyes flashed red, and a hole in the hard wall of the base next to her instantly appeared.
"Impossible, with the power of [Ultimate Creature], how can the Avengers ......"
Because of the battle with the [Ultimate Creature], Wanda and the others knew very well that the other party was strong, and such a powerful and terrifying creature was finally defeated by the Avengers. Such a result undoubtedly made the brother and sister feel deep despair.
"Not even the Ultimate Creature can defeat the Avengers, is there any hope for our revenge?"
"Yes, I promise."
Facing his sister Wanda's desperate gaze, Quicksilver was silent for a moment, and then made a guarantee in a firm voice.
Although he comforted Wanda on the lips, Pietro also felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
The Avengers are more powerful than they imagined, even though the two have gained extraordinary power under the experiments of Hydra, but when facing the Avengers who even defeated the [Ultimate Creature], Pietro still does not have the slightest confidence.
"Young man, you seem to be very troubled, huh?"
However, just as Wanda and Pietro in the Hydra base were desperate, an old voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
"Who is it?!"
Hearing this sudden voice, Pietro immediately restrained the despair in his eyes, and looked in the direction where the figure sounded with a vigilant expression.
Click, click
"Don't be too nervous, young ......"
Under the vigilant gaze of the brother and sister, with the click of tires against the ground, a thin figure in a wheelchair slowly appeared in front of Pietro.
"I'm just an old guy who is on the verge of death, and half of my body is already buried in the earth, so I don't deserve your vigilance."
In the wheelchair, the old man slowly raised his head, revealing a wrinkled and thin face, he turned his cloudy eyes to look at Pietro and the others in front of him, and his mouth let out a laugh as old as dead wood.
"Who are you?"
Although, the old man's thin appearance seemed to fall to the ground with a slight push.
But Pietro did not ignore the way the other party appeared.
This is the secret base of the hydra, and it is obviously not easy to come here with such a wheelchair without being discovered by the brothers and sisters.
"I, I'm just a sad old fellow."
In the face of Pietro's questioning, the old man slowly turned his thin head, which was close to a skeleton, and said slowly in a hoarse tone mixed with sadness: "I feel similar emotions from your body, so I took the liberty to chase after you." ”
"Grief and indignation."
Hearing the old man's answer, the look in Pietro's eyes flickered, looking at the thin old man in front of him, he really couldn't connect it with the emotion of grief and indignation.
"It seems that you don't really believe me, old fellow."
Slowly pushing the wheelchair under him, he got closer to Pietro, the old man raised his thin face, looked at the brother and sister, grinned to reveal his already empty mouth, and showed an ugly smile full of wrinkles on his face: "Young man, don't think that hatred belongs to your generation, in fact, hatred knows no age, for example, old guy I ......"
"I once took in an apprentice, old fellow, although that criminal didn't listen to me as a master very much, and even finally betrayed the old fellow despite my persuasion to find more powerful power. However, even the criminals are my old fellow's apprentices, so even the cleaning of the portal should be done by me, the old fellow, not by outsiders. ”
"Apprentice?"
For a foreigner, the description of an apprentice or even a criminal is obviously a bit too complicated.
Simply, there was also a Wanda who had mastered a special ability beside Quicksilver, and the red light in his eyes flickered, and Wanda immediately understood what the old man was talking about, and couldn't help blurting out.
"So, your purpose is revenge?"
"Nope."
However, during Wanda's inquiry, the old man shook his head unexpectedly.
"I'm not revenge, old fellow, I just want to find the guys who killed my criminals, and thank them properly."
When it came to the word thanks, the old man grinned at his toothless mouth, and under the wrinkles on his face, he gave people an inexplicable shudder.
Looking at the old man with an oozing smile in front of him, even the Wanda brothers and sisters with extraordinary abilities couldn't help but feel a hint of coldness.
Obviously, the so-called thanks in the old man's mouth are not as simple as the words sound.
On the one hand, the old man's answer was terrifying, but on the other side, Pietro couldn't help but ask.
"Who are you avenging?"
In the wheelchair, the old man twisted his thin head and glanced deeply at Quicksilver in front of him, before he replied in his old and hoarse voice like a dead tree: "There is a guy who claims to be from Jiuyou who has found me and told me that the person who killed the culprit is in New York. ”
"New York?!"
Hearing the familiar name of the brother and sister that appeared from the old man's mouth, the red light in Wanda's eyes became unstable again.
Reaching out and patting Wanda's shoulder to calm him down, Pietro also reluctantly suppressed his inner thoughts, looked at the old man in front of him and asked, "So, I don't know what the apprentice you have been talking about?" ”
"What is the specific name of the criminal, because it has been too long, I don't remember the old guy very clearly, but I heard that he later got a nickname that doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, it seems to be called the Fire Cloud Evil God?"
