Chapter 119: The Avengers Assemble

There is a certain risk in bringing the Winter Soldier into the Avengers, after all, during the time he was brainwashed, he did kill Iron Man Stark's parents with his own hands.

Once this matter is exposed, the already crumbling Avengers will inevitably fall apart.

But very few people had the authority to know about it, only a few high-ranking members of the Soviet branch of Hydra.

Baron Zemo, who caused the civil war in Captain America 3, has not lost his relatives in the Battle of Skovia, so it is naturally impossible to seek revenge from the Avengers.

Lu Xiao really doesn't have much time to worry about the Avengers' infighting now, and Wanda resolutely said that she will never go back to New York to see Stark, and the Winter Soldier is the most suitable person to join the battle as a reinforcement in the current situation.

The low pressure in the Avengers Building continued, and even Steve, who had always maintained a high fighting spirit, was a little discouraged.

He had seen a lot of things from the past in the illusion that Ultron had built with Loki's scepter, including Peggy Carter, who was already bedridden, when he was younger, and he still remembered that he owed Peggy a dance.

There is also Bucky, who grew up with him, and Steve once again recalls Bucky's screams when he falls off a cliff, and the strong negative emotions make the mentally resilient Captain America temporarily fall into depression.

Not to mention the others, Quicksilver huddled in the corner with his head in his hands and muttered to himself in his native language, as if recalling the scene when his parents died.

Stark stared at the only remaining armor of the Iron Legion with blank eyes, although he didn't admit it, he actually knew in his heart that his action to make Ultron was too reckless, but he couldn't pull his face to admit his mistake.

Under the influence of Loki's scepter, he witnessed the defeat of the Avengers, and Jarvis, who had been with him for the longest time, was also severely injured by the Ultron uprising.

When Tony was at his lowest mood, he couldn't help but think of his soulmate, Pepper Potts.

"Huh~"

In the lounge on the top floor of the S.H.I.E.L.D. building, a ring of energy cremation suddenly appeared, and the avengers who were originally in a trance immediately stood up and assumed a posture of vigilance.

"Wait!"

Hill raised his hand to stop the Avengers from alerting: "Don't get excited, your own people, lay down your arms." ”

Steve looked at the hooded man who stepped out of the portal first in confusion, and Stark, who was in a bad mood, opened his mouth and sneered: "Wow~ Look at who this is, a wizard who came from the Middle Ages across time and space?" ”

β€œgreat! The planet is getting crazier and crazier, and even these rats hiding in the shadows can't help but jump out. ”

"Stark!"

Hill, Hawkeye Barton, and Black Widow all spoke at the same time to stop Stark's provocation, and Steve's gaze looked past the hooded man to the familiar face that walked out from behind him.

"Bucky?"

Although he was very excited, considering the hot battle when they met before, Steve forcibly suppressed his excitement and asked vigilantly, "Which side are you on now?" ”

When Barnes saw his old friend again, his feelings were also very complicated, and he was excited and inevitably felt guilty about his previous sword fight.

"Do you still like to hide your house keys under the bricks in the doorway?"

As soon as Barnes's words came out, Steve's originally tense shoulders suddenly relaxed, and he couldn't help but smile on his face.

Steve took out a satellite phone on the spot and dialed the preset number, and said with a smile on the microphone: "Sam, your expedition is over, hurry up and come back." ”

"Hey!"

Stark, who was ignored, stood up again to brush up on his presence: "Has anyone noticed me?" Does anyone remember that this is my mansion? Please do me a favor and arrest these two trepers. ”

"I wouldn't have done it if I were you, Tony."

"Boom!"

A huge roar suddenly came from the roof of the Avengers Building, and Stark, who was already familiar with the Rainbow Bridge, rolled his eyes: "Okay, our Breaking Point actor is also here, and it's really lively now." ”

Compared with Stark's unhappiness, the arrival of strong reinforcement Thor made Hill and Barton and others breathe a great sigh of relief.

Walking down from the rooftop, Thor first waved hello to the other Avengers, then walked up to the hooded man with his trademark hearty smile and gave him a warm hug.

"Lu, how has this time been? I didn't expect to see you here again. ”

As companions of the Avengers, Stark and Steve and others know this "god" from Asgard relatively well.

Although they were much easier to get along with than they had when they first met, Thor still had the pride of being an Asgardian, and had never embraced either of them so warmly before.

"Lu?"

Steve and Natasha glanced at each other, both of them with a look of surprise in their eyes.

"Ciel, it can't be the hacker we know, right?"

In response to Black Widow's inquiry, Hill shrugged his shoulders noncommittally.

After closing the portal, Lu Xiao took off his hood, revealing the familiar oriental face of Steve and Natasha.

"Hey~dude." Steve raised his arm helplessly: "Can anyone tell me how many acquaintances with special abilities are still hidden around us?" ”

Lu Xiao smiled and shook Steve's arm: "I'm sorry, I haven't been allowed to reveal my identity before, and I can only help you in the name of hackers." ”

In fact, as early as after the Battle of the Three Curved Wings, Steve guessed that Lu Xiao was not an ordinary person.

It is impossible for an ordinary otaku hacker to have such a neat skill, which requires long-term systematic training to develop skilled combat skills.

Not to mention the ability to jump into the water from a height of several hundred meters in the air without injury, even Steve, who has received the super-soldier serum enhancement, does not dare to say that he can survive in this situation.

However, Black Widow had already sensed that something was wrong with Lu Xiao through some clues, and she was more calm than the speechless Steve.

With the arrival of Thor and Barnes, the deserted Avengers Mansion is bustling again, and the previous low pressure is diluted by the joy of the reunion.

"Let's get down to business."

Lu Xiao temporarily stood on the main seat under Stark's unhappy gaze: "Thor, you should already know the origin of the scepter, right?" ”

Thor nodded, "Father...... The queen mother had already told me the truth, but it was a pity that Asgard could not find a suitable next home in time, so Tony seized the opportunity to make a big death. ”

"Hey! Shocking point male protagonist, pay attention to your ...... Hmmm! ”

Hill covered Tony's mouth from behind him with an expressionless face: "You shut up and get down to business." ”

Lu Xiao shrugged his shoulders disapprerovingly, someone restrained the overly expressive Iron Man in line with his heart.

"I'm still in a hurry to get back to Kama Taj, long story short."

"Loki's scepter does not belong to him, but was temporarily given to him by a cosmic overlord named Sanos, who is the true master of the Zetaris, and the gem set at the top of the staff is the focus of our meeting."

"There are six infinity stones in the universe that are infinitely powerful, representing the six origins of the universe, time, space, power, reality, soul, and mind."

"That yellow gem on Loki's scepter is the Mind Gem, one of the Infinity Stones."

Lu Xiao's words caused a commotion, and none of the people present had heard of the concept of the Infinity Stones, except for Thor, even though they had personally touched the Space and Mind Stones.

"As for the purpose of Sanos......"

Lu Xiao glanced at Stark, who had just sat down: "Although I don't want to believe that he can think so far, it turns out that Thanos deliberately left the Mind Gem on Earth in order to provoke civil strife on Earth." ”

"He moved his hands and feet on the Mind Gem, and once someone used the power of the gem significantly...... The Thanos preset trap will be activated. ”

Stark's face turned a little pale when he learned the truth, but he still retorted stiffly: "This is impossible! Do you think my mode of action has long been seen through by Sanos?! ”

Lu Xiao nodded heavily: "It's a pity, this is the case from the results." ”

"Mr. Stark, don't think that you are the only one in the universe who is favored by the god of wisdom, Sanos, who was born in the Titan Star Eternals, is also a genius among geniuses."
