Chapter 20: Captain America Reborn

The Avengers' base was hosting a celebratory party, and not only the Avengers and the resurrected Guardians of the Galaxy members, but also Kama Taj's Doctor Strange and the King and Wakanda were all invited to the party.

Before the banquet, Ethan also resurrected Vision by the way - he didn't borrow the Time Stone from Doctor Strange, and the Mind Stone also returned to Vision's head, he used it well, and there was no need to find a new custodian.

"It's really a reunion now!"

Everyone is chatting: the people who have disappeared for five years are chatting with familiar people, trying to figure out what has happened in the past few years, and specifically thanking the Avengers and Ethan.

Of course, there are also people who want to see the magical sight of two Tonys, and by the way, they complain that Tony in this world is so much older than themselves in the parallel world - they already know that Tony in the parallel world is not much younger than Tony in this world.

"No way, this guy learned a lot of things I didn't understand. ”

Tony spread his hands, not denying the words of his other self, nor saying anything like 'Actually, if this Tony wants to, he can make a similar potion to regain his youth'.

Although they are the same person, they are not the same person, they have different pursuits, and there is no need to impose their own ideas on 'another self'.

Everyone was chatting and drinking, and Ethan and Steve were sitting in the corner.

Steve now had an incredulous look on his face, glaring at Ethan.

"What are you talking about, opening a separate world line for me?"

"It's a rare opportunity, don't miss it!"

Steve took a deep breath, and Ethan's generic words made him think he was joking.

"Sounds wonderful. ”

"It's not too bad to experience, if you really want to make up for that regret from the bottom of your heart. ”

“......”

Steve was silent, he really wanted to make up for his regrets, even though more than ten years had passed, but he still had a feeling that he did not belong to this era, although he had adapted to everything in this era.

In the final analysis, he still has no way to forget the promises he missed back then.

"What the hell are you talking about opening a separate world line?"

Steve was still intrigued, he wanted to know what that meant, was it like in the 'movie', sending himself to some parallel world?

"No, that's just sending you to a parallel universe, even if I don't make a move, with the equipment made by Tony Stark, you can go to other parallel universes smoothly, as long as you choose the right time, you can indeed meet Peggy Carter. ”

"What's the difference between what you said about opening a separate timeline and this?"

"If you go to a parallel universe, there is another you in that universe. ”

Steve suddenly understood, but it left him a little incredulous.

"You mean to send me to a world where I don't exist?"

"I mean, a whole new world in which 'you' is 'Steve'. ”

Ethan briefly explained his thoughts to Steve, and this time Steve completely understood what Ethan meant: he could use special means to send him to a point in time before he was born, and then let him 'throw' himself into himself.

Then this timeline becomes a new parallel universe, and Steve will retain all his memories, but he will become himself as a child.

In that case, you're probably going to have to give up that muscle. ”

"These things, like the shield, weren't mine. ”

After Steve understood Ethan's arrangement, he nodded and agreed without any hesitation, as for this strength beyond ordinary people, he really didn't value it very much.

But if there is no problem, Steve, who has grown up again, is estimated to have to undergo a super soldier transformation plan, and then he will change back to his current appearance.

"And...... You don't have to worry about throwing yourself out of your responsibilities. ”

"Huh?"

"Tony Stark has built a parallel time and space shuttle device, if there is really trouble to deal with here, I can go to the parallel world to find you for help. ”

As long as you don't go to the skinny version of Captain America that hasn't been transformed yet!

"I haven't really thought about it......"

Steve has considered completely relinquishing his duties and announcing his retirement, but it would be a good thing if there was a way out, because when something really big happened, he really couldn't sit idly by.

Ethan's plan has been taken into account in all aspects, and Steve thinks it's good, but will it be troublesome to operate specifically?

"No, you're the one who suffers. ”

“......”

Ethan is nothing more than casting a few spells, and Steve is going to turn back into a child, and he is still an adult's mind, it is estimated that he will be very uncomfortable in the twenty years of growth.

"Let's do it, but I need to arrange it first. ”

"Yes!"

Steve still has a lot of issues to deal with here, especially several of the Avengers' companions, and he needs to greet them one by one - he doesn't have to pay attention to the official side, their relationship has long been broken.

And saving the world this time is different from the original plot, Steve and Tony didn't 'sacrifice', so the official still won't say anything good about him, and he doesn't have to care about those guys.

"But you'd better hurry, I'm not going to stay here for too long. ”

"I'll do it as soon as possible. ”

Indeed, on the third day after the party, Steve had already taken care of his personal affairs.

Everyone who knew Steve's decision gathered in the Avengers base to see him off.

In fact, this is also a collective farewell, in addition to Steve going to 'a new world to start a new life', Tony Stark also officially announced his retirement.

After so many years of fighting as Iron Man, and secretly studying space-time technology in recent years, Tony Stark has burned all his energy, and his current physical state can no longer support him to continue.

It's just that he won't quit as completely as Steve, and Tony Stark will still support the new generation of Avengers financially and technically.

In addition, Hawkeye, who has long announced his retirement and was forced to make a comeback because of his family, will go back to enjoy family fun with his family, and maybe he can meet with Tony often to discuss how to spend his leisure time after retirement.

"Actually, I want to retire too. ”

Natasha is also tired, but her situation is too special to retire casually, and the Avengers are in the stage of renewal, so they also need to be brought with them by the elderly.

However, she will not be on the front line again, and Natasha will gradually move to logistics and clerical work, which is not bad.

Everyone hugged Steve, and the last person standing in front of Steve was Sharon Carter, whom he had dated for a while.

"I'm sorry. ”

"It doesn't matter. ”

Every time he sees these two people, Ethan has a feeling of 'Steve, you're such a beast', this is really 'weird'.

Ethan and Tony also said goodbye to everyone, they won't be coming back after leaving this time, and after helping Steve open the 'new dungeon', Ethan will return to the world line he is more familiar with.

However, Tony will bring back a small piece of equipment so that the Avengers of this world can locate their worldline, and if necessary, they can use the equipment made by Tony Stark to go to the parallel universe for help.

Steve also has such equipment on him, so he can go to him when necessary.

However, compared to Tony and Ethan, who can come here on their own initiative, there is no way for Steve to come back on his own, unless Tony Stark in that world also builds this kind of equipment.

"All in all, it's been an honor to work with you. ”

After saying the last sentence, Steve nodded at Ethan, and then Ethan also waved goodbye to the avengers of this world, and then opened a spatial door next to him.

Tony walked in first, followed by Steve, and Ethan stepped through the door last.

After Ethan's figure entered the space gate, the space door disappeared directly, and they left this world in an instant.

However, the three people who stepped through the space gate did not come to any world, but were in the void.

This magical environment made Steve a little panicked, and Steve, who was doubting whether he could survive in this environment, immediately noticed that there was a transparent film around him, enveloping them in it, suspended in this void.

"Where is this?"

Seeing Ethan come in, he asked curiously.

Ethan pointed to the surrounding clusters of light and explained to Steve: "This is the void between the multiverses, and each of these clusters of light around symbolizes a universe. ”

It's just the multiverse void of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but that's not the point.

"So much?"

Steve looked at the dense clusters of light that seemed to be full of stars, and he was a little worried about whether he could find the right world.

"You don't have to worry, I just need a template, and this template is ready-made. ”

Ethan pointed behind him with his thumb, and Steve immediately understood: Ethan was going to use the world they had just found himself in as the basis for a new world.

"Look at me. ”

Tony watched quietly, although Steve had some questions to ask, he also knew that this was not the right time to speak, and stood aside in the same silence.

Ethan left the film and went to the void outside, then reached out and pulled a ball of light from the large blob of light.

Steve could only see a ball of light, and after Tony stared at the light a few more times, he suddenly felt dizzy, nauseous, and extremely tired, and immediately withdrew his gaze after realizing that this was not something he could understand now.

In his trance, Ethan rubbed the light ball in his hand a few times, and then flung it into the void, and a new huge light ball was born.

"That's it!"
