Chapter 51: Frozen Elixir (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
The majestic S.H.I.E.L.D. three-curved wing building, in the conference room of the headquarters.
"Director Nick Fury, I heard you've been looking for this guy lately?"
The black one-eyed dragon director, who had just reported to the representatives of the five permanent members of the international Security Council on the financial situation and personnel arrangements for the quarter, raised his head.
Among the five one-meter-high screens, under the frame belonging to the British representative, a photograph appeared.
In the photo, a handsome young man with short blond hair is smiling.
"Edward Hufflepuff?"
"I'm looking for him!"
Ferry was a little surprised, how could Edward's photo appear in the hands of the Security Council?
You know, it's been nearly six months since Edward and Bronsky disappeared from the Sahara Desert.
However, Ferry still used his power to mobilize a military satellite belonging to the "European Union" and several unmanned reconnaissance aircraft to monitor the area where Edward disappeared for a long time.
Next to the screen of the British representative was the French representative, who said with a serious expression when he heard Ferry's answer.
"To be precise, his current name is Edward Merlin, and we hope you don't investigate him again."
The French representative with a big nose speaks fluent French.
"We need you to stop disturbing Lord Edward, Lord Edward will not threaten the security of the world."
The Russian representative on the other side interjected with a deep accent characteristic of Slavs.
"Please comply with this instruction from us."
The representative of the United Kingdom opened his mouth to conclude. Then, he nodded to the other representatives of the United States and China, and the screens of the representatives of Britain, France and Russia turned off at the same time.
The Chinese representative, who had nothing to do with himself, smiled kindly at Ferry and turned off the screen as well.
What's going on? Ferry was at a loss at this time, although Edward's mysterious disappearance in the vast and boundless desert was enough to prove that he was not an ordinary person, but Ferry never expected that Edward would have such a huge energy and be able to affect the Security Council.
He looked to the side with a puzzled look at the American representative who was still on the screen, hoping that this real father of S.H.I.E.L.D. (S.H.I.E.L.D. was formerly known as the Strategic Science Corps of the United States. Can give yourself a hint.
The American delegate in a crisp suit was even more puzzled than Ferry at this time, and at first everyone looked at the report submitted by Ferry and discussed the problems on the report. However, when he saw the information about Ferry's investigation of Edward, the representatives of Britain, France and Russia suddenly issued such an order, and they did not communicate with him in advance, which made him confused at the moment.
However, the emotions of his own son still need to be appeased.
He had no choice but to calm down and say to Ferry.
"Ferry, I don't know the specific reason."
"Let go of the surveillance of this Mr. Edward."
He curled his tongue emphatically as he pronounced the word "surveillance".
Ferrie was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded in understanding・・・・・
Ferrie walked out of the door of the conference room, and Coulson suddenly hurried over.
"Director, we've found the location of 'Abomination,' and the satellite has retrieved the signal from him."
"Oh? Where is he? ”
The Director is quite calm now.
"On the airliner to New York, he was with Edward, and he was half an hour away."
"The Delta Special Rapid Reaction Force has been ambushed at the airport."
Coulson said quickly as he handed the information to Ferry.
"We also need to evacuate the surrounding civilians..."
"No!" Before Coulson could finish speaking, Ferry ordered directly.
"Withdraw the reaction force."
Ferry's order made Coulson look up in surprise.
Ferrie continued.
"This is a directive from the Security Council."
"Just inform the plainclothes of the FBI and let them keep an unspoken surveillance. Nothing, don't bother them. ”
He handed him the information Coulson handed him, and he didn't even look at it, snap! and threw it on the table in front of it.

New York John F. Kennedy International Airport.
"Hey! My friend, welcome back. ”
In front of the three luxury cars, Tony Stark wears a luxurious tweed velvet trench coat, and behind him stands Pepper Potts and several bodyguards.
Iron Man opened his arms and gave Edward a very strong hug.
Edward was now smiling, and his jeans and striped shirt were all over his face, giving him a touch of energy.
The two men hugged each other, and Edward replied loudly.
"Tony, you guy, how are you doing?"
Then, whispered in Tony's ear.
"Especially the thing on your chest."
With his back to Pepper and hugging Edward, Tony's eyes widened when he heard Edward whispering the novel in his ear.
"I'm still that good!" Iron Man first responded loudly.
Then he whispered in Edward's ear.
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you..."
There was a hint of surprise in his voice.
Luxury ocean view villa in San Diego, California.
Iron Man's lab next to the underground garage.
More than a dozen steel armors of various types stood straight on the walls of the laboratory.
"Show you a new version of my armor."
Tony Stark pulled out a briefcase-sized suitcase from the corner of the lab.
"Portable Steel Suit"
He placed the suitcase at his feet and smugly introduced it to Edward.
Click! Click! After a few sounds.
An iron man with several silver stripes on his armor appeared in front of Edward.
Edward touched his beardless chin.
"Can you tell us about its data?"
"Whew!" The plasma stream beneath Tony's feet spewed outward, floating in midair.
Synthesized Tony's electronic sound.
"Speed XXX, energy XXX, it's just that the defense is a little reduced..."
Pepper Potts looked at the scene in front of him speechlessly, and when he got home, the two tech maniacs looked a little nervous when they couldn't wait to discuss the new steel suit.
Shaking his head helplessly, he brought two cups of hot coffee and put them on the test bench, then turned around and walked upstairs.
As soon as Little Pepper Potts went upstairs, the two people who were in full swing just now fell silent in an instant.
It took a long time for Tony to speak.
"Edward, what have you been doing all this time?"
Edward took a cup of coffee that Potts had just brought over, gently put it to his lips, and took a sip.
"Go to the election of the Speaker of the Magical Council."
Tony, who was about to go to get his coffee as well, heard what Edward said, and his feet slipped, almost missing the coffee on the ground.
"What, Magic Council? Wizards and councils? ”
Tony's eyes widened in surprise.
"That's right! Although there are only a few magicians who have recovered at present, the shelves of the council still need to be erected. ”
Edward explained unhurriedly. However, he did not elaborate on it, and quickly changed the subject.
"Let's talk about the thing on your chest, I feel like it's constantly emitting corrosive rays that eat away at your life."
Hearing Edward ask him the most nerve-wracking and fearful question of all this time, Tony reluctantly asked.
"You're right."
He took off his portable steel suit and pulled the shirt off his chest.
Around the energy core that emitted a blue glow, a trace of terrifying black lines like evil black maggots were slowly spreading to Tony's entire chest.
Edward stepped forward to take a closer look.
Based on some solid scientific foundations, he can easily discern the condition of Tony's chest in front of him.
"This is palladium radiation poisoning, but this core is also supplying the energy of your physical activity, and I can't completely help you solve it."
Tony's face darkened, and an inexplicable dead air appeared in his eyes.
"Hey! Dude, I'm not done yet! ”
"I can't help you detoxify, but I can keep it as it is!"
As he spoke, Edward pulled out a wallet-sized box and handed it to Tony in front of him.
Tony hurriedly took it and opened it, and two rows of 24 test tubes filled with dark blue liquid appeared in the box. The pale blue color exudes an icy chill.
"It's a magic potion, it's called an 'ice potion.'" Edward introduced Tony.
"Just one can fix the radiation toxins in your body as if they were frozen in ice within a month, and although they won't decrease, they won't increase either."
"Best of all, there are no after-effects of this approach!"
Hearing Edward's introduction, Tony Stark's originally somewhat gray pupils instantly ignited a flame of hope.
"Haha, I knew you had a way!"
He tapped Edward on the shoulder excitedly.
Before Tony could continue to say some words of thanks.
Tony's intelligent butler, Jarvis's voice suddenly came.
"Sir, you have been ordered to attend a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee at 9 o'clock sharp."
"Oh?"
Hearing Jarvis's words, Tony's face was relaxed at this time, although the ice potion could not immediately solve his physical problems, but it was enough to give him two more years of normal time.
There was a two-year buffer, and with his ingenuity, he was able to work out a solution to his problems once and for all.
The familiar cynical smile returned to Tony Stark's face, and he turned his head to look at Edward.
"There's a clown show tomorrow, would you like to go see it together?"
Seeing that Tony had regained his confidence in front of him, Edward smiled.
"Of course."
"The Federal Military Commission, I haven't been to such a tall place!"
