"When I first met Nadim, I still have that memory, and I know that they are not the heroes who will become famous in the future. However, this is not surprising, because their abilities cannot be reflected in combat. But you're different, your abilities are good for combat, and you're very good at it. On top of that, you've already been involved in more than one big war. Especially the one on Broadway. Although most traces of you have been erased, a part of the population is already aware of your existence. In other words, at present, you can be regarded as a hero, and you have a certain mass base. It's just that you didn't appear in the virtual universe of my world. β
"What are you trying to express?" Now Grant was puzzled: "Didn't you say that those memories of yours have been erased by the Ancient One?" β
Aaron's face was a little embarrassed, as if he didn't know how to explain it.
"Let's put it this way. When I hear or see 'Iron Man' and 'Tony Stark' or even just 'Stark', I have a vague feeling. Also, when I saw the news photos of the three giants that you showed me, I felt a little familiar. Although the memory is gone, and I can't predict what will happen next, I still seem to have a little memory of those heroes. Like Captain America, Roaring Commandos, and even Red Skull and Hydra, even though they are all antiques from decades ago, I still feel familiar when I see the stories about them. You're the only one, you've shown your worth so far, but I don't have the impression of you, either as a decent person or as a villain. β
Grant didn't interject, but waited for the other to continue.
"There are two possibilities. First, in the future you will appear under another name and in another image. Based on the fact that you already have a certain amount of popularity, this is actually unlikely. Second, you're just like me......"
At this point, Aaron's words were interrupted by Grant.
"Wait, wait. Let's be clear, I'm not like you. I grew up in this world, and I have a complete memory, a complete record, and a photo to prove it. You can't fake this! β
Looking at Grant, who was hurriedly distinguishing, Aaron said angrily: "Listen to me!" I didn't say you came from another universe like me. I mean, you're just like me, you're an 'extra variable'. β
This time it was Grant's turn to be angry: "What's the difference then!" β
So Aaron choked. In fact, he didn't consider Grant to be a non-native. But this is already a difficult thing to explain, and I don't know how to explain it now. In the end, he could only say angrily: "You just need to know that your every move is likely to attract the attention of the ancient one." β
"You're saying that the Ancient One might come to trouble me?" Grant almost squirted the wine in his mouth onto Aaron's body, "I'm an earthling!" β
Aaron covered his face with his hands: "Actually, I am also from the earth." My hometown is also called the ...... of the earth."
For Aaron's words, Grant didn't care. His mind was all on the ancient one that Aaron described as super terrifying. But soon, he calmed down. Aaron will be abused by the other party, but he may not have a chance. And......
"As you said before, the fact that he regretted erasing your memories shows that he was shaken by his idea of maintaining the continuity of time and space in the universe. In other words, if he was given another chance, he might not do that again. β
"It's not 'probably', it's 'very likely'. Although I've only met once and fought once, I still know a little bit about it. Aaron nodded, "Of course, the worst-case scenario cannot be ruled out. I'm telling you this just to give you a heads up. In addition, there are differences between the two of us. I was targeted by him because I knew it was going to happen, and you ...... I really don't know what you have the ability to disrupt the continuity of time and space, maybe you have or have been exposed to something powerful enough to affect the entire universe? Well, it's possible! β
Grant was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you say that you are a doctor of psychology, how do you still know this?" β
"It's not hard to guess." Aaron spread his hands, "Of course, I would prefer that you just change your name and image someday in the future." If it's really against the ancient one......"
Grant, who is more optimistic by nature, has already let go at this time. He even joked: "Then why don't I change it now?" By the way, it seems that someone has nicknamed me 'The Great Magician'. Got an impression? β
"I want to think about it...... No. Pretending to be thoughtful, Aaron laughed, "I'm glad you believed me......"
"I don't!"
"I'm glad you didn't bother me too much because of my words." At this time, Aaron patted Grant on the shoulder, "Let's rest first, I have to watch F1 during the day." The Monte Carlo circuit is one of the four most famous circuits in the world, and it is arguably the most special. This hasn't changed either here or in the universe I used to live in. β
Indeed, as Aaron said, Monte Carlo is a very special stop in the Formula 1 circuit. First of all, it is due to the particularity of Monaco itself - this world-famous tourist destination is inhabited by many nobles and wealthy people, and every F1 race held here can attract a large number of spectators, including even high-ranking political officials and world celebrities, which is a good social occasion; Secondly, the track is integrated with the streets of the city. Cars travel directly between blocks at high speed, and city dwellers may be able to see Formula 1 cars speeding by under their windows when they open their windows. Also, since the event is held on the streets of the city. As a result, there are no buffer zones on either side of the track, as in other tracks, but simply makeshift guardrails, and the track itself is particularly narrow. That's why some people describe racing in a Formula 1 car at Monte Carlo as being as difficult as flying a helicopter in a living room, where a small mistake can cause the car to crash into a guardrail and end early. On top of that, the narrowness of the track also makes overtaking particularly difficult, so winning on this track is more about the driver's skill than the car itself, so the Monaco victory is very valuable.
Regardless of the sociability, Grant is more looking forward to seeing the cars drift around the 180-degree corners, and the scenes of coming from behind in this racetrack, which are not ordinarily difficult.
Just as Grant and Aaron were going back to their rooms to rest, Corsica, across the sea from Monaco, somewhere along the coast, two S.H.I.E.L.D.-standard Quint fighters were parked here. Members of the five combat units were guarding the outside of the Memora, and only one of the squad leaders remained in the cabin of one of the Memora. At this point, he was looking at an electronic screen, waiting for someone on the other side to contact him.
Suddenly, a big bald head appeared on the screen: "How are things going?" β
"So far, everything is going well." The team leader immediately responded, with a very respectful attitude, "The two warplanes are already ready on the opposite shore of Monaco, and there have been no accidents with the 'cargo' inside. In addition, those two frozen containers entered the port of Monaco five minutes ago, and in another four hours they should be where they should be. β
"Well done." The guy on the screen nodded, "But now we need to change our plans and send the backup container in." In addition, another team is already on their way to you, and will probably be in touch with you at sunrise. They'll know how to do it. If the new plan goes well, we will be able to catch a second big fish. Well done! β
"Yes, sir. heil_hydraοΌ β
