Chapter 257: The Mage and the Witch
"So, you brought the two of them here?"
After not being to the Avengers Mansion in a while, Oakes found that it had changed a lot.
But when he found Tony, the guy didn't expect two life urgers to come looking for him.
After Oakes told him a little tactfully why, the guy's eyes widened:
"Even if you can be resurrected, I don't want to die first!"
"No, I'll put them on the Guardian of Nature first.
And they all said that they would not use force. ”
Oakes patted Tony on the shoulder and comforted:
"Don't worry, since I dare to call them, I am naturally sure, even if they come up with something unconventional, I can take it."
"Shet! Who bombed Sokovia back then? I'm just a secondary responsibility! ”
Tony rubbed his hands a little anxiously, saying that since before he became Iron Man, countless people have called him "murderer".
At the time, he didn't care, but took it as a compliment to himself.
Later, when he realized that he was wrong, even though he had been reborn as the superhero Iron Man, he never denied the mistakes he had made in the past.
Perhaps it is precisely because of Tony's mentality that he can carry a nuclear bomb through the wormhole.
Oakes saw that Tony hadn't even thought about resisting since he heard about it, let alone put on a steel suit and fight to the death with the twins......
Still relieved.
"You all calm down first, I arranged for them to check the information of Hydra, I still have an appointment in the afternoon, and when I finish dealing with the affairs over there, I will arrange for you to meet."
Oakes said as he opened the portal to the Guardian of Nature:
"After this matter is settled, I have something important to discuss with you...... Very important! ”
Tony, who calmed down, saw Oakes close the door and left, and scratched his hair a little irritably:
"Something very important? Well, since he said so, at least it's not a big deal for me. ”
He whispered, and as soon as he returned to his lab, Jarvis's voice rang out:
"Sir, received new data from the Roaring Commando, research data from the Hydra Sokovia base...... Maybe you may be interested. ”
"Huh?"
Tony's attention was pulled back, and he was in no mood to complain about why he didn't have his share in fighting Hydra this time, and when did the captain find an old friend to come back:
"Open it and take a look, I heard that this base is quite high-tech......
Well? Remote control robots? I play with the rest. ”
Tony flipped through the holograms, and gradually, his movements slowed down.
"Loki's Scepter Research Materials ......"
He pulled a chair over and sat down, one hand clutching his chin, and carefully looking at the studies that had surprised him a little:
"Oakes said the scepter was with him, right?"
"Yes, sir."
Jarvis's voice rang out:
"The Scepter comes from beyond Earth, but not just from Asgard.
Dr. Oches had been in contact with the Scepter during the Battle of New York, and this time he wanted to see if he could make it harmless completely.
It's just too dangerous for the average person. ”
"Hmm...... That's right, I'm also an ordinary person. ”
Tony's eyes rolled a few times and he pouted:
"It's just that the guy who planted trees everywhere didn't understand artificial intelligence after all, and he didn't understand the profound connotation of this research material of Hydra......
Wait, what he's going to tell me, isn't that the big deal? ”
There was an astonishing sparkle in his eyes:
"I'm very interested!"
"Sir, you'd better write a speech ahead of time to avoid falling into disadvantage in your later communication with the twins."
Jarvis kindly reminded:
"From the data, their abilities are tricky, but if they are allies, they are also very reliable-
Perhaps that's why Dr. Oakes is committed to resolving the conflict between you and them. ”
"Hmm...... Speeches, Speeches...... Jarvis, you should know that the speech is of little use to me. ”
Tony scratched his head again and slumped into his chair:
"I basically play on the spot, and besides, I am at a loss this time, and I don't want to use words to quibble......
Forget it, let's talk about it then, but I need to study this theoretical model carefully......"
……
While Tony is obsessed with the possibilities in the Hydra profile, Oakes returns to the Guardian of Nature and has lunch with the siblings Pietro and Wanda.
The never-before-seen natural style diet surprised the two siblings.
"Is this the invention of your environmental tech company?"
Patero was amazed and cut the pieces that looked almost identical to the steak...... Steak in your mouth and chew carefully:
"This stuff has a lot more protein than beef, but less than half the fat and calories!"
Pietro, who has a strong metabolism, can tell that this "meat", which is exactly the same as beef in terms of taste, taste and even appearance, is not beef at all.
"Well, plant-based beef, after all these years of development, has been enough to confuse the real with the fake -
Of course, we are not doing it as fake beef, this is a healthy ingredient for the new era. ”
Oakes pointed to the big acorn that Wanda was holding next to him with a confused expression:
"We haven't done the beverage acorn business in Europe yet, but it will be soon.
Plus, these chicken and tuna steaks are also plant-based.
After years of improvement, they are almost indistinguishable from real chicken and tuna, and they have a significant effect on fat loss.
We have been supplying the green series of major brand fast food restaurants for more than half a year, and the response has been very good. ”
"Uh...... That is, we are grazing? ”
Wanda took another sip of the passion fruit-flavored drink Acorn, which girl doesn't like:
"It's amazing...... Can your magic do such a thing? ”
She had a layer of red light wrapped around her hands:
"What about me...... Does it count as magic? ”
"Hmmm......"
Oakes swallowed a bite of beef, thought about it, and nodded:
"These achievements belong to science because they can be replicated by ordinary people, but they do involve magic in the beginning.
As for your abilities, it is magic, but it is not the same as the magic factions on Earth today. ”
Speaking of this, Oakes was a little hesitant whether to go to Gu Yi or not.
However, he was a little relieved to think that it was impossible for the ancient one not to know about Wanda's chaos magic.
Wait for the Supreme Master to get the disciple's affairs done, and then study it slowly, but you can get to the bottom of Wanda in advance:
"Your and Pietro's abilities, strictly speaking, are not 'given' to you by Hydra's experiments, but you have this potential in your own right, and their experiments have 'awakened' and 'strengthened' your abilities.
Mages on Earth master magic through learning, and I've seen you have magical abilities like you, Wanda. ”
Oakes thought of the Asgardian diva Frigga:
"She calls people like you 'witches.'"
