Which one is better if the officials are forced to die together [Comprehensive British and American]

Chapter 306

Carl wasn't quite sure whether Tony was happy with him calling so many people over.

Although Tony didn't say anything, Carl could see that he was not used to staying in his own home, not only because it was too quiet and peaceful here, but also because of the changes in the surrounding environment, and not only because there was no How much Tony lives off of beer and donuts - well the lack of beer and donuts in this place is probably a big part of the story, but it's not the most important thing either.

What is the most important thing?

In fact, it’s nothing, Tony just finally took a breath from the matter of announcing “I am Iron Man” to everyone in one breath, and regained his senses, the intense emotions that made his blood boil gradually settled, and he finally If he is in the mood to think about it carefully, he willfully announced the consequences of the truth.

The military department has not responded yet. It is very likely that Howard’s connections left over from the past, Tony’s own friends in the military department, and Fury who tried to make Tony a member of the “Avengers” are behind the scenes. work hard.

But they could only stop those people for a while, and in the end, Tony knew that he still had to face up to the greedy faces of those people.

It's not that he has any respect for those idiots in the military department, but knowing that there are always a group of idiots staring at him behind him, no matter what, it can't be a pleasant thing.

Of course Karl could see this kind of irritability, but he also couldn't do anything about Tony's troubles: politics is really not something he can play with.

He can't play, can't play, and dare not play.

So the goal of this meeting is very clear, to find something to pass the time for Tony who is not in a happy mood, and also to make these people who have different goals but share the same ideals and beliefs People get to know each other, chat a few words, and have a friendship.

Karl didn't expect them to build such a deep relationship, "like friends at first sight" is so talked about, isn't it because it is too difficult to achieve?

However, there are indeed some people who naturally know how to communicate, lower the other party's vigilance, and dig out the information they want from the other person's mouth.

Louise walked among the crowd with a smile on her face, talking to those superhumans whom she had only heard about but never had a chance to have a conversation with. Maybe she asked some important questions and got satisfactory answers. , there was very little politeness and pretentiousness in her smile, and a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes from time to time.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was getting active, Dick also put down the game console in his hand.

After saying hello to Carl, he got into the crowd with great interest, observed the people closely, and extracted important words from their few words.

"I've fulfilled my responsibilities as a house owner." After trotting to Lex's side, Carl said solemnly, "Let's go, it's boring to stay here—I can't even get into the topics they talk about. "

Lex raised his eyebrows a little, glanced over Carl's shoulder into the room, and met countless pairs of eyes full of interest, curiosity and teasing.

Of course these people knew about his relationship with Karl, but many of them had never seen Lex, and now they suddenly had the opportunity to observe him up close, so of course they would seize the opportunity to watch him non-stop.

Pietro turned his head and asked Wanda quietly, "Have you met Luther before?"

"No." Wanda was probably the most serious one among all the people who were looking at Lex. For some reason, the young girl pursed her lips, "I think Mr. Al is deliberately avoiding me and Lex. Meet Luther... I hope this is my illusion."

"You must be thinking too much." Pietro said nonchalantly.

Carl grabbed Lex's hand and went out the door. Lex didn't have any dissatisfaction or any intention of resisting. Carl led him out, and he took the opportunity to look away, and followed Carl out of the gate of Al's main house.

The door closed behind them.

What was blocked at the same time were not only those comments and conversations that were not considered publicity, but also those eyes cast behind the two of them.

"Let's just take a walk in the garden, Lexi," Carl said softly. "You haven't seen the whole of it yet."

"Is there any surprise here that I don't know?"

"I'm afraid there's nothing here that you don't know, Lexie dear," Carl shrugged and put his arm around Lex's shoulders, "but anyway, it's better to be outside than to be in— — you don't want them watching you all the time. Why should we compete with Tony for the leading role?"

"We didn't compete for the position of the protagonist. Aren't you the only protagonist in every play?" Lex raised his hand and brushed away a branch hanging in front of his eyes. This action seemed to startle the bird perched on the branch. little bird.

It flew away with its long blue tail, and Rex watched it until it disappeared among some lush foliage.

The sun in the metropolis is always so bright and the heat is astonishing. Carl's fingers lightly rest on Lex's exposed skin. At first his fingers are hot, but later it may be because Lex's body temperature is in such a slow pace. Gradually rising, he actually felt that Karl's fingers were a little warm and cold.

Damn it, the perfect lines and skin carved out of marble, and that constant temperature.

Always reminding him of who Carl really is.

"Tired?" Carl asked softly.

"In front of you?" Lex said vaguely. "Never."

They circled slowly, amidst the chirping of the birds and the curious peeping of the squirrels, talking about the boring life dialogue that any couple would say.

Of course, their identities make their life dialogue not so close to the people.

"...Movies always have problems, whether it's the leading role or the supporting role. The previous few films obviously didn't have so many things."

"The previous movies were at most a warm-up." Lex said casually, "I think you enjoyed it."

"You're right." Carl admitted, and then asked another question, "How is your experiment?"

"The results of the experiment don't meet my expectations, but I'm working hard." Lex said humorously, "In a short time, I probably won't be able to show him to you."

"he?"

"It seems my grim image has taken hold, my dear, so much so that it surprises you when I use 'him' to describe my best work."

"Oh," Carl said, "I'm not surprised, actually."

"Then you just want to dig out more information about him from me. I have to say that this move is quite beautiful."

"It's still seen through by you, isn't it?"

"We both do a great job of seeing through each other, and we both do it so well, Honey."

"I don't see anything wrong with that, given that's what our status requires," Carl said. "We've been out long enough..."

"Do you want to go back?"

"No." Carl showed a sly smile, "Since we have been out for so long, what are we going back for?"

In the villa, the well-trained chef had already started preparing dinner, and the invited guests were still chatting and laughing in the hall. Wanda followed Rao and asked worriedly, "Aren't we waiting for Mr. Al to come back?"

"They've been away for a long time," Rao said, "They didn't intend to come back."

Hearing what the other party said, Wanda exhaled a long breath, and looked a little excited.

She was finally in the mood to look at Rao. His attire was no different from when he was working at Ayre Group in the past. It was still exactly the same. He inherited the standard three-piece suit from Alexander, and his hair and face were well-groomed. , In this place that doesn't shine very brightly, his every move seems to be shining.

"...Why did you leave the Ayer Group?" Wanda still couldn't help asking this question.

Rao stopped checking the glass and said, "I thought you'd never ask me that."

"I really didn't want to ask at first, because this is not a big deal. Maybe you left because the Ayer Group didn't meet your expectations, maybe you left because you inherited a very controversial variant from Magneto Brotherhood, you did this in order not to cause trouble for Mr. Al, maybe you just want to change to a less friendly environment... Anyway, you have the freedom to leave and change jobs."

"Then why are you asking me this question again now?" Rao hit the nail on the head, "Because you don't think I seem to have any dissatisfaction with the Ayre Group, and I don't plan to distance myself from the Ayre Group?"

The feeling that this topic is completely controlled by the other party makes Wanda feel uneasy and annoying, but she really wants to know the answer to the question.

"You can think so." She replied smugly.

Rao just laughed, it was an undisguised smile, and he didn't know how many teeth he showed in total. When he smiled, his face was bright, and his naturally standard and decent facial features seemed to be dyed with a layer of warm light. Relaxed and cheerful only when studying at Xavier College.

Wanda only felt that there was a big white spot on his face, which was dazzling.

"There are many reasons why I left the Ayer Group." Rao said with a smile, his expression was calm, but his fingers unconsciously fiddled with the empty wine glass. This action showed that his heart was not as calm as he appeared. Carl Group does not meet my expectations for future development, and I have received enough help—for both me and Carl, leaving is the best result.”

Is that so?Wanda stared at Rao suspiciously, trying to see something that didn't match his tone from the other's micro-expression.

However, Rao's smile is like a calm sea, you know what is hidden under it, but you can't see the slightest clue.

Far away in Asgardri, in the Temple of Gold.

Thanos raised his head, staring deeply at the bright murals painted on the top of the hall.

They tell the achievements of Odin's expedition. The branches and leaves of the world tree stretch in the picture scroll, skillfully connecting each story, and countless fragments shine at the tips of the branches and leaves.

Every character on the picture scroll is so beautiful and so proud, even though they are wearing broken battle armor, and the horse with wings behind them fell from mid-air covered in blood, Odin, who always occupies the center of the picture scroll The king of Sgard stared out of the scroll with his piercing eyes.

"These murals are all carved by the most talented craftsman in Asgard, Gamora, and this entire palace tells the history of Asgard," Thanos didn't look back, and there was nothing behind him. No one, but he seemed to know that Gamora was approaching him, "Unfortunately, we all know a truth—"

"—History is all lies." Someone answered.

However, it was not Gamora who spoke.

-

Thanos turned around in surprise, staring at the unclear fog in front of him:

It is light blue in color, vaguely forming a human shape, but only the head and body can be distinguished.

The edge of this thick fog will not escape outwards, rather than saying that it is thick fog, this thing is more like a semi-solid.

At this moment, it was suspended behind Thanos, just a short distance away from him. After receiving Thanos' words, it neither continued to speak nor made any response, and it didn't look like a dense fog when it was in a completely still state Or semi-solid, more like a cloud of shadow.

"I'm still thinking that Gamora's concealment skills have regressed a lot. It seems that I made a mistake." Thanos said, "This unknown guest, since you just hid your face, but didn't hide your whereabouts , let me boldly speculate that you are not here to assassinate me, but to ask for help," he observed the changes in the visitors, and said slowly, "or cooperate."

"I don't need help, and I don't intend to seek cooperation." Dense Fog said, the sound of this thing is like an empty echo in the canyon, coming from all directions, with no beginning and no end, "I'm just here to provide a Little information."

"Then you're here to help me."

"It really makes me feel sick to say that," Dense Fog's tone showed obvious emotional fluctuations, but it is still very difficult to judge its specific identity based on this, "but it's not impossible."

Thanos looked at the other party and said, "You are not Loki."

"Of course I'm not Loki."

The dense fog shook slightly. If it was replaced by a person's image, it probably meant that it was amused by Thanos' words.

"Please stop guessing, Thanos, there are only one or two people in this world who know who I am - and you just need to know that I will bring you a lot of help."

"Please speak." Thanos remained politely vigilant, and to be honest, this behavior really didn't fit his image of a cosmic genocide.

"The six infinity gems you want to collect, and the six you want are all on Earth." Thick Fog said lightly, "The time gem is guarded by Mage Strange, and the soul gem is taken by Alexander Al. Of the remaining four gems, two were originally in Loki's hands."

"but?"

"But they are gone now." Thick Fog said unhurriedly, "I believe you must have got the news, after all, there are very few secrets in this world that you don't know."

Thanos said, "You know where those four gems are."

"I was guessed by you, why am I not surprised at all?" The dense fog trembled again, "Don't be so surprised, you will know where the other four gems are sooner or later, even if you don't know, whoever owns those four gems People are also the target you have targeted long ago. After all, your ideas do not match, and he is destined to be your enemy."

Almost all intelligent races in the universe regard Thanos as an enemy, but not everyone who hates Thanos is qualified to be regarded as an enemy by Thanos.

So as long as the thick fog said that, Thanos would know who the guy he was talking about was.

"Kryptonian?"

He didn't call the other person by name or "Superman" directly, but chose another code name carefully.

"That's right." Thick Fog said slowly, "When you are unarmed, you can rack your brains to think about how to deal with it. In the end, you can only use 'Alien Invasion' to tie his hands and feet and distract him. 'that guy'."

Thanos didn't speak, but his face became obviously ugly.

This unknown visitor may be lying or telling the truth, but whether it is lying or telling the truth, Thanos will have a big battle with Superman sooner or later.

And Superman without Infinity Gems is already very tricky, so tricky that he is almost invincible. If Superman still has Infinity Gems...

Dense Fog probably had admired Thanos' expression enough, and spoke again.

"Please don't worry, the news I sent is far more than this one. The news just now can only be regarded as an appetizer, and this is more important."

In the dense fog, a green stone the size of an adult's fist slowly floated out, hovering between the dense fog and Thanos.

After a brief hesitation, Thanos raised his hand decisively to catch it.

"What is this?" he asked.

"Shards of destroyed Krypton," whispered Fog, "the only substance in the entire universe capable of harming, and even killing, Superman."

"How can I trust you?"

"The hardness of kryptonite is not very high, you can cut a small piece and try it." Dense Fog said, "But I don't recommend you to do this, because that guy is likely to become alert because of your experiment, when the time comes It will be very difficult to get close to him."

"A few more friendly reminders: Superman has no enemies in the universe, but he has many enemies on Earth, and Lex Luthor is the most powerful of them."

"Or you can try to find the 'ghost zone', which is the space gap where Kryptonians exile criminals. That space gap did not disappear with the destruction of Krypton. Theoretically, every Kryptonian can accept enough With more sun exposure to gain the same abilities as him, they can all fight Superman."

"Or you can try to find those new gods who hate Superman, such as Darkseid, but the ideal of the Lord of the Apocalypse is different from yours - what he desires is pure death and destruction, so if you want To cooperate with him, I am afraid that you will have to fight to the death first."

"While I've given you so many options and given you a piece of kryptonite, frankly, I don't think you'll be able to kill Superman."

"After coming to Earth from the destroyed Krypton, the environment completely different from the parent planet gave him strength, and only things from Krypton can..."

Put him to death.

The unknown visitor, who had been talking non-stop, suddenly fell silent.

It stopped talking, but the mist did not stand still, but slowly expanded and contracted around it, like jellyfish in the sea.

Perhaps this overt appearance means that it is caught in some kind of thinking.

Thanos instinctively realized that this sudden visitor seemed to have sudden remorse. Even if he didn't regret it, he must be hesitating and thinking about whether he should continue what he was doing.

The green kryptonite was quietly put away by Thanos.

The four surviving generals under him are still outside the door. Being able to break through their encirclement and approach him proves the strength of this visitor. During the conversation, even the well-informed Thanos failed to see The power and skill used by this dense fog.

This is also an important reason why Thanos did not act rashly, not only listened carefully to what the other party had said, but also kept it firmly in his heart.

He has gained a great reputation in the universe, and countless people hate him so much that they regard killing him as their life goal, but at the same time, there are also many people who respect and worship him, and are willing to sacrifice everything to die for him.

This unknown visitor was not one of them. If anything, they might have a common enemy.

"You must hate Superman," Thanos said.

"No, I don't hate him," the visitor hiding behind the thick fog gave a meaningful answer, "it's the opposite."

I don't know how far away from Asgard, in the chaotic asteroid belt, a somewhat dilapidated spaceship is accelerating towards Asgard.

After several days of sleepless sailing, Thor still looks refreshed. He is concentrating on the star map floating in front of him, controlling the direction of the spaceship, and in the co-pilot seat, the little raccoon Rocket has fallen asleep. Drooling.

Little Groot was sitting on Thor's shoulder, and he turned his head to look at Rocket, then turned back to look at Thor worriedly.

"I'm Groot," he said.

"Thank you, little guy, but I don't need to rest. When I was still in Asgard, I led the army to fight many times. It is common for me to not rest for several days and nights." Thor held out With one hand, he took Groot off his shoulder and put it in the small flower pot in Rocket's arms, "It's you, little guy, go back to your pot and rest."

During this period of time, Peter has not protested that Thor took away his driver's position, but Thor used his tyrannical physical strength and superb driving skills to win the support of everyone except Peter.

Peter was very reluctant to go to Asgard at the beginning, he wanted to go to Thanos and rescue Gamora from the other party, but soon, Thanos took his subordinates to Asgard with great fanfare. The news spread throughout the universe, so even Peter no longer objected to Thor becoming the pilot of the spaceship.

At this moment, Peter and the others were resting in their own room, the spaceship was silent, not even the music that Peter would always play.

When he first met this group of people, Thor thought that all members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, except Peter, were heroes. In other words, Peter was a gag in the team and a professional drag.

But at this moment, he didn't hear his noisy and yelling voices, and the earth music that Peter loved was not played in the cockpit. Thor suddenly felt that the universe was too quiet.

Perhaps feeling the exhaustion in his heart, Angela walked over quietly and leaned against Thor.

On her chest, the sapphire with the Superman badge engraved inside shone with an unusual brilliance.
