Chapter 60: Immortality

"What's going on, Carter?" Looking at Carter's strange appearance, Alex was shocked for no reason, and felt a little nervous, thinking that something was wrong. &&&{}. {}{}. {}

Carter looked at Alex when he heard this, and a smile appeared on his slightly heroic face: "There is news from Steve!" ”

Alex stood up suddenly, and appeared next to Carter in an instant, with an expression of disbelief on his face: "Really? ”

"An ice coffin was salvaged by an ocean-going fishing vessel in the North Sea." Carter didn't seem to be able to suppress the excitement in his heart, and his voice trembled a little, "Based on the information we have obtained, I suspect that Steve is inside the ice coffin." ”

Alex frowned unconsciously, remembering that in the movie Steve was found under the ice, and the North Sea seemed to be a little far away. Thinking of this, Alex had to speak, and heartily reminded the excited Carter: "Carter, don't be too excited, let's go and see it first." ”

After some twists and turns, Alex took Carter to a museum in Norway, where the ice coffin was temporarily stored.

Looking at the ice coffin in the corner of the museum, Alex was a little excited, especially when he looked at the shield that was very obvious in the transparent ice coffin.

Carter took three steps and two steps and approached quickly, but when she saw the person lying in the ice coffin, the joy on her face suddenly stopped, and sadness unconsciously hit her brow.

Alex, who was behind him, knew the result when he saw Carter's expression, but he still stepped forward to take a look, it was indeed not Steve, but a samurai in ancient armor with a shield on his chest.

Excitement and disappointment, really expounding what it is, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

"Can you walk with me?" Alex was just about to take Carter back. Carter wiped the corners of his eyes. He asked suddenly

Alex was stunned. The head promised to come down.

The night in Norway is very cold, and the streets near midnight are even more empty, with no one in sight, and two figures walking slowly.

"Alex, do you think Steve is still alive?" After a long silence, Carter looked up at the night sky of several cold stars, and his faint voice sounded lonely.

Alex turned his head to look at Carter strangely, feeling that Carter was a little strange today. I've had this kind of loss before, but Carter has never been like this one. It feels like a dying old man, tired.

Thinking crankily in his heart, Alex replied very confidently: "Of course, Steve is still alive." ”

"For a few years, we've searched every corner of the planet." Carter suddenly became agitated and a little hysterical, "How long are we going to be looking for?!!! ”

"Don't worry, we're sure we'll find Steve." Alex reached out and took Carter into his arms, comforting him.

With Alex's comfort, Carter gradually calmed down. It's just that the anguish on his face is becoming more and more obvious.

Carter gently pushed Alex away and walked quietly forward in the sudden snow. Some helplessly said: "I'm afraid I can't afford to wait." Although he always believed that Steve was still alive, Carter knew very well that this opportunity was very slim, and maybe everything would be empty later.

Listening to Carter's words, Alex was silent. In the movie, it has been seventy years since Steve was found, and Steve woke up from the ice as if it were yesterday, but Carter was so old that he couldn't even remember Steve. Thinking of this, Alex found that such an endless wait was a form of torture, especially for Carter.

After sending Carter back to S.H.I.E.L.D., he didn't say hello to Nick Fury and went straight back. Alex originally came out to distract himself, but in the end, it only added to his troubles.

Sitting alone in the tallest tower of the Floating Temple, looking at the vast and huge alien city beneath his feet, Alex fell into deep thought. Carter's words reminded Alex that there was a question he needed to consider.

"What are you thinking?"

Alex was thinking about it when Emma's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and when he turned his head, he saw that Emma was wearing a white dress, and was climbing up from the skylight in the tower with her hands and feet.

Seeing Emma turn over and jump up, Alex chuckled, then looked at the red sun gradually rising in the sky, and asked slowly, "Emma, do you have a method of immortality in this world?" ”

Alex knows a lot of methods of immortality, such as Nick Fury's infinite formula, Wolverine's super resilience, and Sebastian Shaw's energy absorption ability can also rejuvenate him and keep him young forever. In fact, as long as it is a mutant, no matter what ability it is, it can more or less extend its lifespan, and so is the Super Soldier Serum.

"That's a lot." Emma straightened her skirt and sat next to Alex, turned to look at Alex, and said angrily, "What, now you want to be with your lover forever and never separated?" ”

Alex smiled awkwardly, didn't look at it or deny it, just said, "Steve doesn't know when he'll find it, I'm worried that Carter won't be able to wait." ”

"Oh, that's it!" Emma didn't laugh anymore when she heard this, frowned and thought carefully before she spoke, "I don't know if there are immortals among humans, but among mutants, there are quite a few such abilities, and the Red Devil is a very typical one. ”

Alex rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "I know this, and now I am thinking about how to make Carter and Audrey ......"

As soon as the words came out, Alex realized that something was wrong, and quickly shut up, but unfortunately Emma on the side had already reacted, and he laughed and skipped it, but instead said: "Human beings have become more and more thorough in their research on their own bodies, but we mutants, almost no one knows our bodies and abilities. ”

Emma looked at Alex from time to time, and seeing that Alex's face was a little curious, she continued: "So, I'm going to build another research room in the academy to study our mutants and study our origins and abilities. Emma was a little anxious, and then continued with a sigh of relief, "Maybe we can find a way to help them slow down aging." ”

"That's a good idea, let's build it!" Alex agrees with Emma's idea very much, knowing that he knows that he is victorious in all battles, and he already knows enough about human mutants, but he knows very little about himself, mutants, "Experimental equipment or something, if you need to talk to me directly, I came to Howard." ”

"It's still in preparation, after all, this will involve a lot of people and needs to be coordinated." The mutant research lab, it sounds like a good thing, but after all, it is a study of mutants, and mutants will once again be reduced to experimental materials, exactly like what some humans do, and it is easy to provoke the opposition of some mutants who have suffered the same treatment.

Alex also quickly thought of the trick, and said, "Don't worry, take your time!" Alex paused again, and admonished with a serious face, "In the future, when the research laboratory is built, don't make things like humans, mutants are our people!" ”

"Don't worry, I don't need you to remind you." Seeing that Alex seemed to return to normal, Emma stood up, patted her buttocks, and said with a smile, "Okay, seeing that your emotions have eased up, I am also relieved and gone!" ”

Alex looked at Emma with a look of surprise on his face: "You're here to comfort me?" ”

"You think I have a lot of free time, and I came here in the middle of the night to chat with you!" Emma rolled her eyes and said angrily, "It's not that Vivien Leigh is worried about you, she found me when she couldn't find it, and asked me to comfort you!" ”

Alex was stunned, and when he opened his mouth, he could only say, "Thank you!" (To be continued......)
