Chapter 600: Visionary Waterhole (Thanks to the book friend Silver Moon Demon Man for his reward)
Looking at Stark's very determined look on his face, Ling Xiao was a little surprised, now because of Ultron, as well as the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, they have caused so much harm, but Tony Stark does not have the slightest idea of repentance, this is not like him!
Suddenly, Ling Xiao's heart moved, he frowned, and couldn't help but ask, "Tony, do you know about the Maxim siblings?" β
Hearing Ling Xiao say this, Rogers, who was originally frowning on the side, also suddenly came to his senses.
Nick Fury, who was on the side, couldn't help but ask: "What are you talking about about the Maxim siblings, and is there anything hidden in this?" β
"Hmm!" Ling Xiao glanced at Stark, who was silent, and then explained to Fury: "The parents of the Maxim brothers died under the Stark Industries missile, and they themselves were slightly luckier, because the missile that fell in front of them was not detonated, so they clearly saw the word Stark engraved on the missile. β
Rogers' heavy face showed a hint of sympathy, and he spoke: "Straker has done a lot of transformation experiments with the Mind Scepter, but most of them have failed, only the Maxim siblings have succeeded, and it is this hatred that supports them to persevere until the end. β
"It turns out that there is such a layer of grievances!" Fury's face revealed some helplessness, shook his head, and said, "No wonder ......"
"Nothing strange." Stark interrupted Fury's words, turned his head to look at Ling Xiao and Rogers, and said very calmly: "That's right, I know about this matter, when Hill was investigating the Maxim siblings, Jarvis had noticed this and informed me. β
"But don't they know that you didn't have the rights to the company in the first place, and that Obadiah Stan was secretly operating to sell those weapons to war-torn places like Sokovia?" Fury frowned tightly and said with some puzzlement: "I can't blame you for this matter at all." β
"It's weird." Stark smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said: "After all, those weapons were invented by me, and I noticed a little abnormal flow of weapons in the company early on, but at that time, I didn't have evidence, and I really didn't care, so I have today." β
"So you want forgiveness, you want to stop the war in Sokovia, you want to make things like this happen again." Ling Xiao sneered and said: "But have you thought about it, what is the real reason for the war in Sokovia, the Caucasus Mountains have always been the key to the game between Europe, America and Russia, for so many years, Sokovia has not had no chance to quell the war, but every time it has failed, and even caused a bigger war, don't you understand the reason?" β
Ling Xiao couldn't help but shake his head, looked at Stark with some disappointment, and said, "Tony, you are so naΓ―ve, do you really think that getting Ultron out can completely quell the war, stupid, too stupid." These are all products of the great power game, if you really forcibly intervene, there can only be one end, that is, you yourself become a tool used by others, and finally be destroyed by others. β
After speaking, Ling Xiao turned around and walked out of the barn in a huff, he didn't want to deal with this guy who suddenly became idealistic, such a person could not be convinced. In Ling Xiao's view, although the Avengers are powerful, they are nothing compared to superpowers like the United States and Russia.
Not to mention anything else, just within the United States, there are not weak hero groups such as X-Men and Fantastic Four, the U.S. government has been researching super soldier serum for so many years, Hulk, Nick Fury, Abomination, these are all products of the U.S. government's experiments, who knows if they will have another team of superpowers hidden in the dark, not to mention that they also have the ultimate killer weapon like a nuclear bomb.
Ling Xiao now vaguely understands why the U.S. government chose to do it against the Avengers later, the so-called super human registration plan is just a pretense, and there is only one reason why they really want to do it against the Avengers who have always cooperated with him.
That is, the Avengers moved the interests of the U.S. government, no, more specifically, the interests of the U.S. military and arms dealers.
And at that time, Hulk should have left the earth, and Thor would not be involved in this matter, and Stark was persuaded that the Avengers could still have any power to resist, relying on Hawkeye, Black Widow, or Captain America, so that the obstacles could be minimal.
At this moment, Ling Xiao was determined to break away from the Avengers, the more the Avengers did on Earth and the more they interfered in things, the more they would infringe on the interests of other parties, so unless they could get out of this, all of this was destined to happen.
The most important thing is that Tony Stark chose to walk with everyone at the most critical moment, look at his teammates, one is Vision who has no own opinions, the other is the active Colonel James Roddy of the US military, and the other is the revenge of his father Wakanda King Black Panther, the position has decided everything.
Of course, there is also the reason why the Winter Soldier killed Stark's parents, and all this is the fuse of the matter.
Is this really the case that was only known at that time, Ling Xiao didn't think so, the U.S. government immediately blocked all the confidential information of S.H.I.E.L.D. on the Internet after Natasha leaked all the confidential information of S.H.I.E.L.D., and at the same time prevented manpower and material resources from deciphering these materials, it was not difficult to find out that the Winter Soldier had killed Stark's parents, and all they needed to wait for was the most suitable time to expose everything.
In Rogers' opinion, the Winter Soldier had been controlled by Hydra at that time, and he had no consciousness of his own, and as a tool, he certainly couldn't be responsible for the whole thing, so he didn't allow Stark to kill the Winter Soldier.
And for Stark, it doesn't matter whether the Winter Soldier has his own consciousness or not, as a killing tool stained with other people's blood, he must be destroyed, this is the fundamental conflict between the two, plus the US government and Hydra, everything is irreversible!
For a moment, Ling Xiao felt that there was a layer of net, covering him, the entire Avenger, inside, and then guiding him to a predetermined ending.
If he wants to break free from such a net, the only thing he can rely on is his own strength.
And at this time, there is another person who is also trying to break free from the big net of the future and try to change the fate of the future, and this person is Thor.
At this time, Thor was not in the United States, he first went to London, and before he even had time to see his girlfriend, he took Professor Eric Schagway to Norway, a place that few people on earth knew, and hallucinated in a waterhole.
"The Visionary Waterhole is a mysterious place, it has a reflection in every kingdom, and if the water spirit accepts me, I can go back to my dreams and look for what I have overlooked." As he spoke, Thor half-crouched on the edge of the waterhole, his expression tinged with concern.
As one of the very few people on Earth who knows a lot about the Nine Kingdoms, Professor Eric Shagway also has a certain understanding of the Vision Waterhole, and he couldn't help but persuade him one last time: "Thor, the people who enter this waterhole have no good end, is it really necessary for you to go in?" β
The vision waterhole can indeed make Thor regain that dream, but the so-called "water spirit" is also likely to devour him, which is a collection of resentments generated between the operation of the worlds of the nine kingdoms, and while fulfilling a certain wish of people, it will also directly devour those who are incompetent.
Thor was a little worried, but he was worried about the future of Asgard, which was why Thor was here in desperation.
"Hopefully you'll find out before they devour me completely." In Professor Shagway's worried eyes, Thor slowly fell into the waterhole, and at the same time he whispered, "Among my fears is the truth I need. β
Slowly, the waterhole soaked Thor's shoulders and neck, revealing that it was completely submerged in it, and for a moment the entire waterhole suddenly fell silent.
Suddenly, before Professor Shagway could react, Thor slowly poked his head out of the waterhole, feeling extremely weak all over his body, and a strong, greedy mental thought began to read his memory.
