Whether spring is coming for Peter Parker or not, Ronan doesn't know.

But what he was sure of was that Peter Parker was definitely tempted.

Ronan didn't say much in front of Gwen Stacy, but after arriving at Stark Tower, his office, he still saw Cindy Munn's appearance from his classmate's communication software.

Well, it looks pretty good, although the face is expressionless and cold as ice.

But at least Peter Parker is appropriate.

The only thing that made Ronan a little puzzled was that he didn't have the character of Cindy Munn in his memory.

Is it someone who has never appeared in the cinematic universe?

Or is it just a simple transfer student who somehow looks at Peter Parker?

Anyway, with this doubt, Ronan opened the communication software and sent a message to Martha.

He decided to go to tomorrow's book club.

On the one hand, he promised Peter Parker to accompany him.

On the other hand, he also wanted to get up close and personal with this Cindy Muen.

It's normal to welcome new students.

Just as Ronan was thinking about what he was going to read tomorrow, there was the sound of an airplane roaring outside the window.

Ronan glanced out the window.

A fighter jet has already reached the top position.

Fighters at the Avengers base, it looks like the gang has returned.

The good news is that they brought back Loki's scepter, the carrier of the Mind Gem.

The bad news is that Ronan's time to touch the fish is over.

"Mr. Ronan, Mr. Stark is waiting for you upstairs."

"He asks you to go upstairs and talk."

Sure enough, some of Ronan's computer was forced to pause, and a video box popped up.

Tony Stark's big face was revealed.

"Hey Luo. Forehead. Mr. Fantastic, we brought this back. ”

"I think you need to take a look."

Tony Stark gestured to the scepter being scanned behind him and winked at Ronan.

After all, when it comes to Infinity Stones, he and Steve Rogers are the only two people who know the specifics.

And the two are not ready to tell anyone else this "bad news".

Ronan couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Although he hated Tony Stark for interrupting his game, he still wanted to see this legendary mind gem.

He had already seen and used three gems, and three had not used.

Moreover, this Mind Gem is also the last Infinity Stone that can be seen on Earth.

So, with a slight wave of his hand, Ronan engulfed him with a door of arcane magic.

When he reappeared, Tony Stark was standing at the table, analyzing the scepter with Jarvis.

"What, you're still curious about this?"

Ronan strained his legs slightly, and the stool with the pulley slid to the table.

Then he touched his feet slightly, then turned a half and faced the Mind Gem.

Seeing Ronan's smooth moves, Tony Stark couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Playing handsome on his turf?

If he hadn't been able to beat Ronan, I'm afraid he would have had to protest.

"It's just routine testing."

"Jarvis said, this thing, like a computer?"

Tony Stark asked with some confusion as he pointed to the location of the Mind Gem.

What Jarvis analyzed, he definitely agrees with.

After all, Jarvis is arguably one of the most advanced artificial intelligence in the world.

Maybe we can get rid of that "one".

"Again, as I said, each gem represents an ability."

"Soul Gem, as the name suggests."

Ronan shrugged, he didn't mind telling Tony Stark the real answer.

Anyway, there was no one around, and no one else could hear it.

"That is, it has wisdom?"

Tony Stark was a little surprised.

"Whether there is wisdom I don't know, but what I do know is."

At this point, Ronan suddenly stopped talking.

Because a figure walked out from behind.

"Tony, Clint's side."

In the middle of her sentence, Black Widow also stopped talking.

Because she saw a familiar face looking at her.

Oh no, I should say, it's the familiar mask.

"Hey."

Ronan spun his chair and waved at Black Widow.

When she heard Ronan's voice, Black Widow was even more sure that the person in front of her was Mr. Fantastic.

Subconsciously, she was about to pull out her pistol from her waist.

But she forgot that her battle equipment had just been taken off in the changing room.

"Hey, hey, don't get excited, don't get excited."

"You're my comrade-in-arms, but he's also my friend, okay?"

"I want you all to calm down, after all, this is my territory."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Tony Stark immediately stood in the middle to mediate.

He even forgot that Ronan had a not-so-good "grudge" with S.H.I.E.L.D. before.

And apart from Steve Rogers, no one else knows Ronan's true identity and relationship with them.

"Friend, huh?"

"Tony, have you forgotten how he teased you that time?"

Black Widow obviously didn't expect Tony Stark to say such a thing.

After all, before this, Tony Stark was "humiliated" by Ronan once.

You know, with Tony Stark's temper, how could he possibly endure this humiliation and even be friends now.

Black Widow felt like she was the hell.

"Amount"

"It's a bit complicated to say, but he helped us before."

"Steve, Steve can testify."

Seeing Steve Rogers coming from behind, Tony Stark hurriedly stopped him.

Hearing Tony Stark's call, Steve Rogers glanced up and instantly understood what was going on.

"Natasha, he is indeed our friend."

"Remember the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?"

"He got it back and gave it back to us."

Steve Rogers patted Black Widow on the shoulder and told her a "secret".

When she heard this, Black Widow looked a little surprised.

That's a cosmic Rubik's Cube!

The other party is not greedy at all?

Call.

I saw Black Widow exhale softly, for her, she had seen too much betrayal and alliance drama.

She has also seen a lot of cases of turning enemies into friends.

So after figuring it out, I wasn't so surprised.

"Well, although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that we have another strong reinforcement."

"At least the kind of reinforcement that can knock me into the wall and keep me out of breath for a long time."

Black Widow glanced at Ronan and couldn't help but say.

She was talking about the last time they met, when Ronan was in Nick Fury's office and punched her against the wall.

At that time

"I said a long time ago, sooner or later you will thank me."

"I've been waiting for Nick Fury's thank you."

Ronan shrugged as well.

It's true that he hit Black Widow once, but he also helped them deal with several Hydra agents.

This comes and goes, which can be regarded as two clear.

"Okay, since the words are all said, then let's not dwell on these things."

"I'm looking for Mr. Luo for this scepter."

"He knows a little bit about these things."

Tony Stark glanced at Ronan and winked at him.

The meaning is very clear, say what should be said, and don't say what shouldn't be said.

"Tony, I hope the next time you call me again, you'll call me by my new nickname."

"Supreme Venerable."

"Mr. Fantastic is so ugly."

Ronan behind the mask couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He really didn't want to continue using the nickname Mister Fantastic.

"Yes, Mr. Fantastic."

"Then let's talk about what this thing is."

Black Widow took the lead and pointed to the scepter.

Obviously, she still has a little bit of frustration that hasn't dissipated.

Ronan pouted, deciding not to meet this woman.

"Then since you want to hear it, I'll tell you."

"Anyone else wants to know?"

——

Ronan didn't expect that a few minutes later, the original Avengers would really all assemble.

Oh, except for Hawkeye who was lying in a hospital bed.

When he learned that Ronan had become one of them, he even smiled and asked Ronan to pay for the treatment of his broken bones.

Of course, the story has to be relayed to him.

"Alright, magical oh no, Supreme Venerable."

"It's time for your lecture."

After all the players arrived, Tony Stark finally changed his tune.

Ronan glanced at the other people with indifferent faces, as well as Steve Rogers and Tony Stark, who were looking forward to it, and couldn't help but sigh.

Say, what else?

Then he began to selectively talk about the Mind Gem.

In the course of the story, he does not say the name of the Mind Gem.

Because no one here is stupid, and from a name, they can infer a lot of things.

And for the sake of their plan, Ronan doesn't plan to expose anything more.

Even if it's a name.

Most of the time, Ronan is telling some legends, and moreover, he also reveals a little something.

For example, the stone is not on Earth, but from the universe.

This is already telling others that there are other beings in the universe who will use these things.

It's just that looking at their appearance, except for Thor who thought a little, everyone else didn't seem to care that much.

Maybe in their impression, the aliens are not so strong.

Steve Rogers, on the other hand, frowned.

The ability of this gem is really a little too weird.

He suddenly remembered when Loki came to Earth, and at that time, Hawkeye was controlled by him.

The controlled Hawkeye seems to have become Loki's slave, not only losing all of his previous memories, but even beating them up.

And listening to the meaning of Ronan's words, it seems that there are still some abilities that he didn't say.

"Well, that's all I know."

"Do you have any questions?"

Ronan looked at the others and asked with a smile.

In fact, he just expects Steve Rogers and Tony Stark to understand it.

After all, the two of them are the executors of the plan.

"I have a question."

"Why do you know so much?"

Black Widow looked at Ronan with some confusion.

It can be regarded as the two who have eliminated the misunderstanding, and they have had their first communication.

"It's not that I know so much, it's my mentor who has passed down all these things from generation to generation."

"And the worldly human beings, on the other hand, are mostly complacent and unwilling to share these things."

"In the end, a lot of things are lost, and in the end they can only become stories."

Ronan shook his head, he was telling the truth.

Kama Taj has been able to have so much knowledge so far, not only because it is well preserved, but also because he is willing to share it with other mages.

This kind of knowledge has been passed down from generation to generation, and there is basically no possibility of it being lost.

Coupled with the special functions of Kama Taj, they have to protect this knowledge even more.

"Okay, I'm fine."

Black Widow shrugged, and she didn't ask Ronan's mentor very interestingly.

After all, if you ask Ronan, there is a high probability that you won't say.

"I have one more question."

"Magical. Forehead. Mr. Supreme Venerable, do you mean, this thing thinks like a human brain? ”

Bruce Banner asked with some restraint as he pointed to the gem at the top of the scepter.

On the one hand, the two sides are not familiar with each other, and on the other hand, he feels that Banner in his body seems to have a special reaction.

"I'm not sure about that."

"On the one hand, the materials that have been handed down back then do not record this."

"On the other hand, there was no such advanced technology back then."

Ronan pointed to the things around him and said with a smile.

Tony Stark seemed to be moved, and he felt that he had come up with a great idea.

A new idea for the future.

"Okay, since you don't have anything to ask, then I'll take my leave."

"This thing."

Ronan glanced at everyone's expressions and deliberately hesitated.

If Ronan were to take the scepter with him now, I'm afraid everyone else would have an opinion.

The same goes for Saul.

This time, Thor came to take the scepter with him.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

"I hope these things don't lead you astray."

Ronan smiled and waved his hand at everyone, then disappeared from everyone's view in an instant.

With Ronan's disappearance, there was a hint of silence here.

After all, I just got a lesson, and the people who took the class still have a delicate relationship with them.

"Bruce and I will figure out what's inside."

"If we only listen to others, we will never get the most truthful information."

"So, we can get ready for the party."

As he spoke, Tony Stark clapped his hands and stood up from his chair.

He turned around and looked at the scepter close at hand, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

If it is really possible, can the gem on this scepter be used as the "brain" of the Iron Legion?

The more he thought about it, the more it became worthwhile for Tony Stark to act.

And Ronan never said how to keep this gem.

Who can't give it to?

Ronan, who was sitting at the workstation, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Tut.

Invisibly, the Mind Gem still affected Tony Stark's mood.

So is the appearance of Ultron or the illusion a deliberate act of the Mind Gem?

It. Craving a shell?
