Chapter 348: The World Reunion Again
"Sure enough......"
From the outside, the walls looked only a few meters high, but when Louis stepped into the unobstructed labyrinthine gate, he found that the surrounding walls had become so tall that the top could hardly be seen, as if directly connecting the sky and the ground.
In order to test, Louis also put on the Enterprise ship uniform and released the Tomcat fighter for reconnaissance, but he flew to the extreme altitude of the Tomcat fighter and failed to find out how high this 'wall' was.
This means that anyone who enters the maze can only move according to the route provided by the maze, and there is no way to cheat with abilities such as flying.
Turning his head to look behind him, Louis walked in the direction of the gate, and thankfully there were no accidents, and he walked straight out.
When he stood in front of the gate of the labyrinth and looked at it again, the high walls changed back to a few meters high, as if what he had just seen was nothing more than his own hallucination.
"Is it a hallucination or some other strange ability?" Louie couldn't make an accurate judgment, like the abandoned city and this labyrinth, there are too many magical phenomena.
Considering that these areas are connected to a wide variety of worlds, it is not surprising to encounter anything in these places.
Raising his feet and entering the gate of the labyrinth again, the high walls that seemed to reach the sky appeared around him again, Louis did not rush to use the simulated speed force to explore the surrounding area clearly, but slowly looked around as if he was walking.
At present, the ground under his feet is clean stone pavement, and the towering walls next to him are also masonry, but the masonry walls are slightly green, and some weeds can occasionally be seen in the corners.
In the distance, the vines on the walls seemed to increase as they deepened, but the floor remained neat and clean.
"Aren't there any enemies or monsters in this labyrinth?"
Louis turned around for a while, choosing a clean stone path to move forward, and while wandering around, he used the device in his hand to record the route he walked, and the small device in his hand had already drawn a maze map of the area he had walked.
So far, it seems to be an ordinary labyrinth, with no monsters and nothing strange going on.
Louis tried to return to the entrance several times, but each time he didn't run into trouble and left the labyrinth without any problems.
"What is this? Is it really just a maze?"
Could it be that something is hidden in the maze? As long as you find it, you can clear the level? Is it really that simple?
After trying to explore for a while, Louis began to pick up his pace, exploring the forks in the road that had been left behind.
When he had explored before, he had specially selected stone paths to move forward, and these forks were either dirt roads, or meadows, and even mud pits and pools, because there was a clear distinction, so that Louis left them for later sifting.
After exploring for a while, he found that even if he only stared at the stone path, he would go deeper and deeper into the labyrinth, encountering more and more forks in the road and seeing more and more complex road conditions, so Louis decided to first draw a thorough 'map' near the entrance, and then grope for area by area.
Just when Louis activated the speed force of the simulation and wanted to open the map 'quickly', Louis, who rushed into a fork in the road, noticed that the scenery around him had suddenly changed drastically, and when he stopped running wildly and looked around, he found that he had come to another place.
"I know it's not that simple......"
Looking at the surrounding landscape, Louis found himself in the backyard of a huge manor, with a huge mansion not far ahead, and the entire area is surrounded by dense greenery, and the lawn and ornamental plants around him have been carefully manicured.
"I don't know whose backyard this is. β
The people who can live in this kind of manor are definitely not ordinary people, and Louis is ready to leave here directly while no one finds out, so as not to cause any trouble.
Just when he was about to put it into action, he suddenly noticed someone approaching behind him - this is not something to make a fuss about, such a large manor, and it is not in a deserted state, it is normal for someone to have someone.
What made Louis care was that he was familiar with this person's breath, after all, it was his wife.
"Esther?" Louie, who turned around, saw the woman standing not far away who was looking at him with a suspicious face, the other party's hair was gray, and there were many wrinkles on his face, although he was tall and did not have the rickety posture of an old man, but he could still see that the other party was very old by his image alone.
"Louie?" opened her mouth in surprise to reveal her beautiful and healthy teeth, and the voice from her mouth did not feel like she was old, and the whole person exuded a 'vigorous life force', which formed a sharp contrast with her appearance, no matter how she looked like an old man who had entered the final stage of her life.
"It's me ......" Louis observed for a while, and soon saw through the truth: Esther used a special ability to hide his true appearance: "Sorry to keep you waiting so long. β
From Esther's 'image', we can know that at least a few decades have passed since he left this world.
He knew that he would definitely come to the Marvel Universe again, and even specifically asked Peggy Carter to use the Return Scroll to return to the Marvel Universe to make various arrangements, and he had long expected that the next time he came to this place, it would definitely be many years since he left.
But when he did see Esther in person again, his heart was still full of apologies.
"It doesn't matter, after all, I've been mentally prepared for this. Esther took a long step and rushed in front of Louis in a few steps, and the agility and speed of her movements did not match her appearance at all.
Stretched out his hand and gently brushed it over Louie's face: "You are more handsome than when you left." β
"Haha. β
"But I've become an old woman,......" Esther pursed her lips, as if to grieve that she was getting old and no longer compatible with Louie, but Louie could see that she was simply smiling.
Louis did not directly puncture Esther's performance, but followed the other party's performance: "It doesn't matter, you will always be the water fluff in my heart." β
"I know you're just trying to fool me, but I'm still happy. Esther is no longer an innocent little girl, and after so many years of experience, she can easily distinguish other information hidden in other people's wordsβis it sweet words or sincere words?
But even if she knew that she was making herself happy, when the same words were said by Louie, she still felt differently.
Louis also reached out to touch Esther's face, but she dodged it: "There is a special camouflage on the face and a lot of makeup, don't touch the flowers." β
"Actually, you don't have to do this kind of disguise, do you?" He left a lot of property back then, and Esther had enough funds and connections to create a new identity for himself, so that he could live as a younger person, so that he didn't have to hide his true face so troublesomely.
"Then I can't wait for you to come back as Lady Esther-Hunt. β
When Louis heard this, he suddenly felt a little weak, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and chatted with Esther about the situation over the years.
He didn't rush to check his mission, and since he was able to come to the Marvel Universe, the next thing to do was to contact Peggy Carter.
If all goes well, Peggy should have done a lot of the work in the schedule, and he can harvest another wave of equipment items here to upgrade the equipment of everyone in the Brave Squad.
"By the way, what year is it?"
"In 2008. β
Accompanied Louis around the backyard, and finally entered the reception room in the mansion, where Esther gave a few simple orders and then a servant brought snacks and drinks.
When the servants had put their things in order, they all withdrew. No one asked Louis about his identity, but at most he took advantage of the delivery to look curiously.
"It's 2008, ah......" means that I entered the plot of Iron Man?
After determining the point in time, Louis chatted with Esther about Esther's situation over the decades, and by the way, learned that after himself, Steve Rogers, and Peggy Carter disappeared along with the huge explosion, it didn't take long for the search and rescue team to find Peggy Carter.
Although Peggy Carter has no way to say what happened to Louis and Steve, it seems that it is a lucky thing to survive such a huge explosion, and no one is bothered about it.
Peggy Carter then continued to work in the Strategic Science Corps, becoming one of the top positions when it was reorganized into the Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency.
Peggy didn't stay there for long, slowly faded out of S.H.I.E.L.D., and is now completely out of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"I've got what you sent from Topeggy, too. While discussing Peggy's affairs, Esther told Louis that she had received a gift from Louisto Peggy: "It is really a very valuable gift, and if it weren't for those magical springs, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had a chance to see you again." β
More than half a century has passed since Louis left, and she has been able to live for so long, even relying on special means to hide her true face, thanks to the magical springs that Louis asked Louis to bring.
Not only do I not have to worry about dying at any time like many of my peers, but I don't even have to endure the troubles of my aging body.
In addition, before Louis left, he solved the material needs of life for Esther. It can be said that in the past few decades, except for the fact that she has to send some nasty guys who have stared at her assets from time to time, and without Louis as her husband, she has lived quite well.
"That's exactly what I was hoping for. β
Louis was happy to hear that everything was fine with Esther, but when Esther asked Louis about his 'experiences over the years', he found that he couldn't laugh.
