Chapter 648 Tony's Disciple
Of course he knew the woman in the red leather jacket and black skirt in front of her: Wanda Maximoff, code-named Scarlet Witch (Scarlet Witch, Scarlet Witch).
Wanda and Quicksilver Pietro-Maximov are twin brothers and sisters (sisters and brothers in the comic universe). For some special reasons, the superpowers of the two in the movie universe come from the human experiment of Hydra.
And in this messy world line that has been messed up by Ethan, these two should have no chance to obtain the same powerful superpowers from the Hydra experiment as in the original plot, because the Hydra experiment The key to success is that they got Loki's scepter, the one that hides the Mind Stone.
This scepter is now in Loki's hands, and the hidden gems in it have also been taken out by Ethan long ago, stored in Asgard, and kept by the Asir Protoss.
To put it bluntly, the Soul Stone is now controlled by Loki, and Thor has the Power Stone. The strength of the two of them is much stronger than in the original plot. They also have powerful equipment such as Infinity Stones in their hands. Garter's combat power has soared many times. Under such circumstances, Thanos has no way to easily seize the gems, let alone Hydra.
Without gems, these two are just ordinary people. Without special abilities, how could they attract the attention of the Avengers and be recruited?
"Could it be..."
Ethan's mind was spinning quickly. After he caused a series of changes, making it impossible for the Scarlet Witch to appear here, there was only one person who could make her appear here.
"Tony?"
Tony has downloaded a lot of comics from other worlds, and with these 'information' as a basis, Tony can find these special talents in a targeted manner.
Although Wanda and Pietro in this world are not mutants, the human experiment of Hydra is definitely not done on only two people.
To be able to successfully acquire superpowers, there must be something special about these two people, maybe this is what attracted Tony?
"kid?"
Ethan came back to his senses, looked up at Wanda who was half squatting, and then sighed helplessly—this was the fundamental reason why he couldn't play in other worlds as he wanted.
"I have an appointment with Dr. Banner to meet in the break room."
"Banner?" Wanda was stunned for a moment, and then realized who Dr. Banner was referring to: "Bruce Banner? Isn't he out?"
"Come back today."
Hearing what Ethan said, Wanda had no doubts at all. She didn't think Ethan was an enemy who maliciously sneaked into the Avengers headquarters. The Avengers headquarters didn't seem to have any guards. In fact, the entire base was under strict surveillance. There was no way for non-insiders to come here without causing any abnormalities.
So when Ethan said that, she directly said that she could take Ethan to the lounge.
"I know the way..."
"I'm going there too, let's go together."
The Scarlet Witch obviously regarded him as an ordinary child, perhaps because she was worried that he would not be able to find his way. After all, this base is very large and its internal structure is very complicated. He accidentally walked around inside for a whole day, but he couldn't find his way out. The road is not surprising. It is said that a new staff member lost his way, and many people were mobilized to search together to 'rescue' this unlucky guy.
"Where did this child come from?"
After coming to the lounge, Ethan understood why Wanda said she was coming to the lounge, because Quicksilver Pietro was here. Although he was wearing casual clothes, the towel around his neck and the undried hair fully proved that this Pietro should have just finished some training before taking a shower and relaxing here.
"I met him on the way. He said he would come here to wait for Dr. Banner, so I brought him here."
"Which Dr. Banner?"
When the two of them came here, Banner followed Ethan to other worlds to explore the universe, and he had never seen it before—and compared to another identity, Banner himself was not well-known in the eyes of ordinary people outside.
"The one who can turn into the big green guy."
"Oh oh, that one... Didn't you go out to do something?"
"It is said that he came back today."
The siblings chatted there. Wanda originally wanted to entertain Ethan and asked him what he needed, but seeing Ethan skillfully find the refrigerator and get a drink, it was obvious that he was very familiar with this place. He said before that he knew Lu It does not appear to be nonsense.
"What's your name?"
Surprisingly, after chatting with Wanda for a few words, Pietro actually took the initiative to say hello to Ethan. From his first impression, Ethan thought this was a character who didn't like to talk to people—— He wouldn't be surprised if it was the one from the X-Men world, the one who was a chatterbox.
"Ethan."
Taking a bottle of drink at random, Ethan answered Pietro's question while flipping through the hologram in front of him.
This lounge is provided internally for the members of the Avengers. Ordinary staff in the base will not come here, and even an ordinary coffee table in this lounge has a high technological content, which is convenient for the Avengers. Query all kinds of information anytime, anywhere.
What Ethan looked through was the information of the two in front of him.
There is nothing to look at in the official information, it just refers to the talented and outstanding talents absorbed from the 'folk', but they are not currently considered as full-fledged members of the Avengers, and are still in the training stage.
However, from the internal information of the Avengers (accessible only to the internal members of the Avengers, Jarvis is responsible for keeping and monitoring, and non-members cannot access it), it can be seen that Wanda and Pietro are actually Tony Stark destroying a The experimental subject rescued when entering Hydra's secret laboratory.
It clearly records that Wanda and Pietro voluntarily became experimental subjects to accept various transformation experiments, and they were relatively successful among many experimental subjects.
Although they didn't get the powerful power in the original plot, Wanda's mental power is far stronger than ordinary people, and Pietro's physical fitness has also obtained some mutation improvements, and his agility and speed have also exceeded the limits of ordinary people.
"Could it be that these two people have their own talents, and the mind gem just stimulates and strengthens these abilities?"
There is no way to answer this question, unless Ethan conducts a detailed examination of these two down to the core level of the soul, in order to have an accurate answer.
Of course, this information is not worth making Ethan feel that it is a big deal. What is really amazing is what happened later.
Wanda and Pietro would voluntarily become the experimental subjects of Hydra because of their hatred for Tony Stark, but sometimes things are so nonsense, Tony Stark actually saved them from the painful, as if Rescued from endless human experiments, and also promised to teach them himself.
What kind of weird situation is this? Of course Wanda and Pietro would not agree, so what happened next became more and more weird—Tony took these two people to find their real enemy, that is, the guy who dropped the bomb on their house , while helping them avenge, he also emphasized once again that he is no longer the arms dealer in the past.
The Stark Group has already transformed into a high-tech group, not to mention that there are still many counterfeit and shoddy products on the market pretending to be Stark’s brand. The inexplicably misfired garbage thing is very likely to be a counterfeit product, because Tony said it was a weapon produced by him If this is the case, this kind of problem will never occur, and it is impossible for you to survive.
Although I feel uncomfortable, I somehow feel that it makes sense. Although the brother and sister are still wary of Stark (mainly because they don't know what this guy wants to do), they no longer hate him as much as they did before, and the two sides have begun a relatively normal communication.
With a good start, the following things will be a matter of course - Scarlet Witch Wanda became Tony's disciple, specializing in learning magic, while Quicksilver followed Steve Rogers and Clint Barton to learn various fighting skills, Use your physical strengths.
"So... you accepted a disciple?"
At the same time that Ethan turned off the holographic image in front of him, Tony and Banner also happened to walk into the lounge. They were not surprised that Tony was found by Ethan, but they would be surprised if Ethan didn't notice him.
"How is it? My disciple is a good choice, right?"
Ethan rubbed his temples, this guy definitely didn't accept the Scarlet Witch as an apprentice on a whim, it was very likely that he was stimulated by the fact that he accepted Leah as an apprentice, and then chose this one from countless people's selection' Excellent seedling'.
The Scarlet Witch's "resume" is there. There is no reason for Tony's character to give up such an excellent goal and find some people who are completely "untalented".
"It's not bad."
Even if the Scarlet Witches in the movie universe and the comic universe are completely different in setting, the Scarlet Witch who is generally inclined to the spiritual power and magic side is undoubtedly more suitable as the current Tony's student.
But in this case, Wanda, who learned magic with Tony, seems to be closer to the original setting than the one in the original movie universe?
"You didn't teach her exactly how to distort reality, did you?"
Tony didn't expect that Ethan would see through his small thoughts, and he didn't deliberately hide his character, so he admitted it very simply and with a little embarrassment.
"Distorting reality is not so easy to do. Wanda can at most break people's necks now."
"Tony!"
Banner looked at Tony in shock.
"Do you teach your own students these things?"
What about your lofty ideals and scientific ambitions? Although you are now devoted to the embrace of occultism, the knowledge of occult magic is also very high. In the end, you only taught your first disciple how to break people's necks with magic?
At this time, Wanda and Pietro also realized that this child was not an ordinary person, and they did not dare to interject indiscriminately, waiting quietly for Tony to introduce his true identity to them.
As a result, Tony frightened Wanda so much that he didn't know how to react.
"This is Ethan...the most mysterious one in our Avengers team, and also the teacher who taught me magic."
