11. Mission accomplished

The subconscious world, after walking the trajectory, dies again, but this time it dies normally.

At the moment of disappearance, the separation that trapped the two had also disappeared, but Li Yue stopped Natasha Romanloff, who wanted to carry out the mission again.

"What's wrong?"

"There's no need, the mission has been successful."

"What do you mean?"

Li Yue pointed to the place where the two of them were at the beginning, where two people who were very similar to Li Yue and Natasha Romanov were standing, talking, sometimes wrinkling the door and sometimes suddenly realizing, and then summoned a car out of thin air and left here.

This is simply a remake of the scene just now......

However, Natasha Romanloff grabbed Li Yue's arm with her hair standing on end, and she said in a trembling voice, "What's that?" ”

"Mirror figures. Tony Stark's subconscious. Li Yue said, "That's why I said that the mission was successful, these two mirrors are like viruses that we left here, they will run to the villa again and again, and then change everything, according to the settings I added, eventually they will make Tony Stark forget this unpleasant experience." ”

Although this explanation sounds plausible, Natasha Romanloff feels like she has a meme in her heart, as if the guy is replacing herself.

And 'Natasha Romanoff', who was sitting in the car, suddenly turned her head to look at the place where she had just stood and frowned.

"What's wrong?" 'Li Yue' looked at her and asked, there was no one in sight there.

"Nothing, it's just...... It feels like something has fallen there......"

……

Natasha Romanoff, who was brought back to the real world by Li Yue, seemed to be uncomfortable, struggling to crawl out of the burrow, letting the scorching desert sun bake her skin.

Li Yue glanced at Tony Stark, who was still humming and chirping soundly asleep, and also crawled out of the hole.

"It's like this for the first time when you go into deep consciousness and perform a mission." Li Yue handed a bottle of Coke to Natasha Romanloff and said. "Energy-based foods are good for recovery."

"Thank you, but I'm not thirsty." Natasha Romanloff hugged her shoulders and sat there like a wounded little beast.

Li Yue shrugged his shoulders and put the drink on the sand, opened a bottle of Gu Dong and drank it, and only after he regained his strength did he say: "Like I said, the subconscious mind is not a very fun place, it affects a person's consciousness. Miserable people even think that the world is not real now, and go for detachment.

That is, suicide. ”

Speaking of the word suicide, Natasha Romanov could no longer control her emotions and began to sob.

She whispered, "I'm scared, I don't know if I'm real in that world, or if I'm real." Or there's another, more real world.

Just the thought of the figure we saw terrified me. ”

Fear is normal.

Even the team of Dream Thieves who have been roaming the subconscious world for many years are afraid to go deep into the dream realm.

Getting lost, getting lost in the subconscious is a very scary thing.

……

Just as the two of them were calming their emotions, the sound of a bang came from the hole in the ground.

Tony Stark crawled out of his burrow with difficulty, looking haggard, like a man dying of thirst who had found a source of water.

Walking and crawling, Tony Stark found the Coke can that Li Yue had placed on the ground, opened the pull ring and drank all the liquid fiercely, then burped loudly and lay down on the sand.

"Li, it's really life-threatening, haven't those American soldiers come yet?" Tony Stark said very uncomfortably as he touched his stomach.

Memories worked? Natasha Romanloff quietly touched the tears from the corners of her eyes and didn't know how to answer, so she could only look at Li Yue.

Li Yue deduced for a few seconds and then signaled Natasha Romanov to rest assured, and then said, "It's going to be a while, they chased too closely just now, so they threw away a long way."

That's right, Tony. How are you feeling right now? ”

Tony Stark looked up at Natasha Romanloff and Li Yue, and said with some loss as he pressed the energy in his chest, "It doesn't feel too good, I can feel the movement of shrapnel." This thing keeps them away from my heart.

But this thing is poisonous, I know. I'm not sure how long I'll live. ”

How could Tony Stark, a super-rich man and scientist, not know the horrors of metal poisoning.

Probably only in front of a real 'friend' will he show his vulnerable side, so that he can not disguise himself like this.

Deduced a certain possibility, coupled with Tony Stark's tone, it can be determined that subconsciously, Li Yue and Natasha Romanloff's phantoms have been doing the task of protecting Tony Stark in that world.

Because of the number of times and certain circumstances, these two apparitions have become an indispensable part of Tony Stark's life.

This is indeed good news.

"Let's not mention this, I want to go back to New York for a hamburger, who of you want to go along?"

Natasha Romanloff looked at Li Yue's eyes and replied, "No, we still need to report from the headquarters." In addition, the cause and effect of this incident must be investigated. ”

Li Yue continued, "As far as we know, this attack is related to Stark Enterprise, so it may not be convenient for us to track it down, and Xiao Pepper may be worried about death." ”

"Of course."

……

Tony Stark was handed over to the military and the property was returned to its rightful owner. Under the vigilant gaze of the US military, Li Yue and Natasha Romanloff boarded the flight home.

Because it was not a mission performed during the mission, the two men did not apply for a special flight from headquarters.

Sitting in the first-class cabin of civil aviation, Li Yue looked at the news report that Tony Stark was out of danger, and moved the peanut meal bag in his hand to Natasha Romanoff.

Natasha Romanloff was not polite, tore open the package, took out one of the peanuts and put it in her mouth.

"There are fewer and fewer incentives from headquarters." Li Yue looked at the message sent by the headquarters on the computer and sighed.

"What's there?"

"Except for the reward of raising the security level by one level, there is not a penny. By the way, I also sent a purchase list. ”

Natasha Romanloff sighed twice and said with a smile, "I'm really not satisfied, in addition to the security level increase, I also have to attach a mission report." ”

It's just a punishment in disguise, the group of text workers at the headquarters are very deductible guys, and writing a report is a pain for field staff.

This is a punishment for Li Yue's poor supervision......

As he spoke, Natasha Romanloff turned her computer to Li Yue, and said, "In addition, those guys at the headquarters also want us to explain this steel exoskeleton found in the cave.

It is said to be very high-tech. ”

It is very high, Li Yue looked at the ugly iron bump on the screen and said silently, and then spread his hands to Natasha Romanoff, "I didn't see this thing, I am not responsible for this article." ”
