Chapter 109: The Holy Hand of Plastic Surgery
That night, Louie didn't do his routine Force practice. Today he first attacked the Hydra base and killed the Red Skull, and after returning and experimenting with the ship's outfit, his Force had already bottomed out, and now the most important thing he needed to do was to rest, not to force his body to prove that he was very hard.
Louie, who had been lying down early, felt as if someone was waking him up in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Esther, staring at her, and her face was no longer the sweet smile she used to have, and she was unhappily asking herself, 'Is there another woman out there?'
Louis was about to explain, when he saw Elena standing not far away holding the child, and Elena, who was also full of anger, glared at him for a while, then turned around with the child in her arms and prepared to leave.
stood up and tried to grab Elena, but found that Elena was gone, and Esther beside him had also disappeared, and even the environment had changed drastically: from a simple bedroom to a narrow bridge over the abyss where there was no bottom in sight.
In addition to the change in the environment, a young man who looked a little like Elena and could see a little bit of his own shadow appeared out of thin air in front of Louie, shouting 'You have failed my mother!', and then rushed towards him......
Opening his eyes, Louis lay in a daze on his humble bed.
"Yesterday I was really tired. ”
Sitting up, Louie felt that he was not in a good state, obviously the last mission world was not the type to fight for days on end, but it made him feel tired, and Louie realized that he should rest for a few more days.
Get up and wash up, put on loose clothes and pants, because of the storage belt, Louie doesn't have to worry about whether to bring some self-defense weapons.
Downstairs, Steve and Bruce were already up and sitting at the big wooden table eating breakfast and listening to Myron tell some interesting facts about the world.
"Oh, it looks like you're tired, and you wake up so late. Myron met Louie, and it was the first time he had seen Louie look in bad spirits.
"Probably a sequelae of yesterday's overuse of the Force. "It doesn't seem like much effort to fight, but the Force Throat Lock and use the Force to hold the energy beam in place are both very strenuous skills.
If Louis was a Jedi Master, this cost would not be a big deal, but he was not.
"Let's get a few more days off this time, and Steve, Peggy, and Jill can ask you more. "It was already said that these people would stay in Redwood Village for a few more days and not rush into the dense fog.
The people around him are not the kind of characters who are willing to mess around, since they are making preliminary preparations, of course they will prepare seriously and attentively.
Louie, a brave predecessor, is of course the best person to consult at the moment.
"Well, that's what I plan. Louis sat down and gently rubbed his temples: "I'll show them around in a moment and introduce the situation in Redwood Village." ”
He didn't push the simple task to Bruce or Artoria, who had decided to go into the fog today at dinner.
Jill herself hadn't been here for long, and wasn't fit for that kind of thing.
"If you're not feeling well, I'll be fine to walk around on my own. Steve could see that Louie wasn't in a very good state, but he didn't think he had to take them with him: "As long as you don't touch those fogs, it's okay, right?"
"It's nothing, even if I'm not in good shape, I'm definitely better than ordinary people. "Louie's bad form is at his best relative to his own form, not that he can't do anything right now.
After a brief breakfast, Artoria and Bruce, fully armed, set off in two directions, with Louis taking Steve, Peggy, and Jill to get a close-up look at the two of them entering the fog.
In fact, they couldn't see anything, and after the two people entered the thick fog, their figures quickly disappeared in the fog, and they couldn't see anything when they stood outside.
Louie even used Force Induction, but he couldn't feel anything.
After the two of them had already entered the thick fog, Louis led a few people around the village to answer the questions raised by several people one after another.
The basic situation is already clear to them, and after knowing the general situation, many questions will arise, and they will ask questions that they do not understand or are curious about, and then Louis will answer them.
It's like going into a thick fog and being sent to another world on a mission, as everyone knows. But what kind of world will you be sent to? What kind of tasks will you perform, will there be a language barrier?
"Just as when you came into this world, you were given the language of this world, and you will be given the corresponding knowledge of the language. In addition to the language of the world and his native language, Louis now knew English, French, and the language of the sanctuary world: "Basically, I don't have to worry about the language, but the mastery of the new language has a little to do with my own situation." ”
Louis had no obstacle in mastering English, but his mastery of French was much worse. Later, I don't know if it's because of the overall improvement of my own quality, but when I went to the dark world to master the language of that world, I didn't have the jerky feeling of 'learning French'.
"Is this the benefit of being a brave?" Gil listened to Louis's narration, and once again sighed at the magic of the Hero's Seal, such a nonsense thing, but something that he had already experienced and probably would experience many times.
Steve and Peggy didn't say anything, they just thought it was amazing.
"But other than language, other skills you may need to use, the Mark of the Brave will not be given to you directly. Louis used himself as an example, for example, the mission requires him to fly a plane to sink an aircraft carrier, and the ability to fly a plane needs to be learned by himself: "But no matter what you learn, the continuous improvement of your own quality can make you learn and master it faster." ”
Therefore, the improvement of his own quality is the foundation of everything, and Steve has a huge advantage in this regard, because he himself is a strengthened super soldier, and his own quality is several times that of humans.
Peggy and Jill are at a loss, and they need to improve their quality as much as possible in the first few mission worlds.
"It's about killing as many monsters as you can. And the more types of monsters, the better. ”
explained in detail the experience of his first world, emphasizing that he got different attribute improvements from zombies, zombie dogs, lickers, hunters, trackers, etc., and if he was lucky, maybe a mission world could allow the brave to improve his quality to a very high level.
"It's impossible to catch up with Steve all at once, but it's also possible to get as close to the limits of humanity as possible. ”
The group quickly walked around the village several times, Louie answered almost all the questions he could, and Steve and Peggy learned more about the world, how the brave man completes his mission, improves himself, obtains special equipment, and so on.
The next step was to make all the preparations before entering the fog, and neither of them was going to waste too much time, and decided to start helping Artoria clear the fog to the south in three days.
The increase in the number of brave men also increased the consumption of food in the village, and they needed to clear the farmland area more quickly.
Jill made a similar decision, originally she wanted to help Artoria clear the south, but now she decided to clear the fog from the north.
"North, you're trying to clear the woods?"
After a round trip, Steve and Peggy continue to wander around the village, wanting to chat more with the locals.
Jill is called over by Louie and asks her to help her with her haircut.
Louis had lived in that world for several years, and he was no longer the crisp round haircut. In that world, he, like most young people, had that common side hair.
After returning to Redwood Village, he was not ready to continue with this 'outdated hairstyle' and was ready to cut his hair short again.
He didn't expect any good craftsmanship from Jill, he just cut all his hair short, and if it was too bad, he would simply shave it all - just take care of the rough version of the round head.
In the open space in the backyard of the residence, Louis asked Jill to cut his hair short shirtless, Jill was not so bad that he needed to shave it, and Louis was very satisfied to wash off the broken hair with the prepared water.
Cool water was poured over his head and then ran down his muscles, and Jill next to him said as he watched, 'Louie has changed a lot'.
"When I first saw you, I was still very thin. "At that time, Louis was not very eye-catching, but now he has become a tall and handsome man, and Jill finds that Louie's facial features have become more 'pleasing to the eye' than they were at the beginning.
This is not a delusion, as a police officer, Jill is confident in his observational powers, and Louie's facial features do not seem to have changed much, but they have become more pleasing to the eye, proportions, and positions than before.
It's like having undergone microplastic surgery, and the appearance of correcting all the imperfections, coupled with today's tall figure and streamlined beautiful muscles, Jill wanted to reach out and try the feel when he helped Louie get a haircut just now.
Louie wiped the water stains with a towel and didn't feel that the change was strange at all.
Dr. Erskine had mentioned that his body proportions were close to the 'golden ratio', and there had long been rumors in the military that he was 'God's own son', and Erskine had praised his body as a God's creature.
Louis just smiled at the time, he knew in his heart that it was actually a 'plug-in' creation: the changes in his body should be the benefits of the improvement of his physique attributes - his appearance and body proportion are all counted in his physique, and some aspects are also included in it.
So when Gil mentions this, Louis tells her not to envy her, and Gil, who has become a brave man, also enjoys this benefit: "It won't be long before you don't have to shave your legs anymore." ”
