604 How Bad Can a Midlife Crisis Be?
Steve and his friends are still in the Buster Building.
But the current situation is not very good.
A bunch of people are staying in this place, thinking hard.
They are all thinking about what they should do in the future.
It's sad to say that super criminals were their enemies.
But now, let alone super criminals, there are not many petty thieves.
"If heaven really exists, is it so deterrent?"
Steve tilted his head and said.
It sounds like he is talking to himself.
It's not that his idea is simple, but Steve can only come up with this reason.
There are actually quite a lot of believers in this country, although whether they are believers or not does not prevent these guys from committing crimes.
When people encounter troubles, they always hope that gods exist to help them, but when they do bad things, they hope that gods do not exist.
Such thoughts make gods very embarrassed.
If there is a creator in this world, it must be a man.
And he must have a sloppy personality.
Otherwise, it is really hard to explain why the world is in such a mess.
"I think the criminals are probably trying to find the location of hell now.
Heaven is real, and hell is real.
Who do you think the bad guys should seek help from?"
Agent Carter picked up the teacup and drank slowly.
It's a little after three o'clock, let's drink tea first!
No matter how much you do, the boss won't care!
Especially in the industry of agents, what they need to do is not to be responsible to the boss and the company.
The most important thing they should do is probably to be responsible for their own lives, right?
It's best if the mission can be completed. Even if it fails, only the living can accept the punishment.
The dead?
What else can there be besides covering the Star-Spangled Banner?
"What is SHIELD busy with now?"
Steve asked John Wick on the side.
At this time, the only person who can give him the answer is this killer re-employed agent.
"I'm probably studying those rings. I still don't understand why a ring can create a superpower.
And this superpower lost his superpower after losing the ring.
Can this thing be considered a superpower?
I do agree with the superpower ring."
John Wick said while rubbing his dog's head.
It's rare to be able to spend some time with his dog. This is a rare leisure time.
"I heard before that these rings were separated from the ring on my hand, but I don't feel any power in the ring on my hand at all."
Steve complained casually.
The Justice Lantern Ring is a first-class and easy-to-use legendary equipment, but the effect is a bit ordinary in the "early stage".
The effect of this ring is quite simple. According to the blacksmiths, it is "to obtain damage reduction equivalent to the proportion of the blocking probability."
But what is the blocking probability?
Does it depend on whether this probability is achieved when holding a shield to block the attack?
"Can you lend me the ring on your hand?"
Mr. Fantastic Reed suddenly stuck his head out from the corner of the wall, but no one knew whether his body was behind the corner.
Rubber Man, the power to change his body at will is quite scary to see at night.
"Of course, but Dr. Reed, is your business over?"
Steve agreed readily. This guy is still a little confident in identifying partners.
Based on the character shown by Reed before, Steve is willing to trust him.
"It's quite troublesome. We just locked up Johnny.
Damn, what kind of thing is the Burning Angel? It can actually occupy someone else's body.
As for Victor, he is very calm now."
Reed said so.
If Victor could hear what he said, he would probably attack directly.
Would it be calm if he was locked in the refrigerator?
Physically calm! ?
Maybe there are some chemical methods?
Dr. Doom didn't care about this at all. Now he just wanted to find a warm place to stay.
"Now whether we can trust Nick Fury is the biggest problem."
Frank sat in the corner, which is generally called the "I don't want to be lively and just want to go home" position.
"Nick Fury is a jerk!"
Wolverine on the side said, squatting on the ground with his head tilted.
The steel claws on his hands scratched back and forth on the ground, looking like he was going to bury the meat bones.
"Is this guy really a wolverine, not a husky?"
Luke whispered. He had no ill intentions, just pure curiosity.
"Well, the question now is whether we should go back to SHIELD or leave them behind and regroup?"
Matthew tilted his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
He and Luke were originally going to find Barr, but they were brought back by Reed and the others first.
Perhaps we should thank Constantine for this?
"I can't trust SHIELD without reservation, especially Nick Fury."
Frank said this and loaded the shotgun in his hand.
With a click, it looked very similar to the T-800.
Fortunately, this world is not yet chaotic enough for the T-800 to appear.
Although things like "Skynet" are still likely to appear.
Tony has already touched the edge of artificial intelligence.
"What the hell is Nick Fury thinking!
Is that guy just confused in his head? "
Wolverine said angrily.
It was hard for Logan to warm to the guy who gave him a physical amnestic.
Although Nick Fury is still reliable at critical times, it's just that when he is reliable, most of the problems are caused because of him.
What is this?
Do I create trouble for myself and then create an image of myself as a great person?
I can avoid problems, but I can't! Just play! ?
"Maybe the brain has been shaken up."
Frank reluctantly agreed with Logan's statement.
The two guys are quite similar.
Likes to act alone and likes to touch and lick wounds.
While Frank licked eighty percent of the wounds that were physical, Wolverine's wounds were those of the heart.
No way, if there were no prions to worry about, Wolverine could probably provide a country's meat needs. 1
With this kind of resilience, if you want him to lick a physical wound, the wound must persist until Logan sticks out his tongue without healing.
"If you agree to go back to SHIELD, please raise your hands."
After Steve said this, he suddenly felt very awkward.
When did this country become truly democratic?
Aren’t they all about deceiving the poor?
Voting by a show of hands always feels a little strange. This thing seems not to be the way capitalism should be played.
So vote now?
What's the difference between this and raising your hand?
Of course there is a difference. Raising your hands will reveal your opinions, but voting will not...
"Forget it, I don't have a good impression of SHIELD to be honest.
But if we break away from SHIELD, how will our lives be solved?
There are also a series of problems in transportation and so on. "
Steve spoke in a self-defeating tone, as if he was a frustrated middle-aged man who had just been fired by his boss.
When I went out, I found that my car had been towed away by the traffic police. When I came home, I found that there was no water or electricity.
I called the power company and was told that I was in arrears. At this time, I really couldn’t even get a dollar out of my pocket.
At this time, the child came home, and the refrigerator not only lost power, but also had no food in it.
All in all...it's pretty miserable.
"Lack of money? Won't it be over if I just get Tony?"
Luke said matter-of-factly.
Although his and Tony's personalities are not very similar, the relationship between the two is actually quite good.
Maybe the relationship established between guys with different personalities will become stronger in the future?
"Don't talk like Tony owes us anything. Don't take other people's kindness for granted."
Matthew knocked on the table and said.
He said this very seriously.
Luke spread his hands and skipped the topic.
Then a portal appeared in front of them.
The kind exclusive to the Nephalem.
"Hey~Long time no see, brothers!
Did you miss me?
Or do you still want to miss me? "
Just by this way of greeting, everyone present will know who is opposite.
Who else could it be but Constantine?
This guy can't be serious even in serious or non-serious situations.
What's the bottom line for a guy who can think about inheriting the devil's legacy?
"You'd better get out of here, we don't want to beat you up now."
Steve let out a long breath, well, he was sighing.
This posture is like there is no food in the refrigerator, but after rummaging through the entire house, only a pack of expired dog food was found.
The most terrible thing is that this pack of expired dog food only has enough food for one person.
So the food was given to the child. When the child struggled to eat the food,
The community child protection organization came to the door.
Um……
To put it simply, it is a bit worse than the previous situation.
"Steve, I'm sorry, but I need your help."
Nick Fury's voice!
Steve slapped himself directly in the face.
Well, at this time he was like,
Child protection organizations plan to take him to court for child abuse and deprive him of the right to raise his own children.
He wasn't even given the chance to visit.
The middle-aged man collected materials for a long time, found his only decent set of clothes, and washed them.
Then hung it on the balcony (including underwear),
On the morning of the day he went to court, he discovered that all his clothes had been stolen.
The only clothes left in the closet were his ex-wife's and the clothes he would wear at night.
Now he faced only two choices, one was to come naked or leave naked.
Another is to go to court in a gauzy bikini that looks pretty much the same as it is with or without it...
Is life only as difficult as a child or has it always been this way?
The answer is always.
Life has always been difficult for those at the bottom.
It's like entering an assembly line factory...
There is simply no time left in the day to do anything that can change yourself.
It sucks.
"Why should I help you?"
Steve hadn't lost his mind yet, at least he knew enough to ask.
It's just that the questions asked are a bit poor.
"This is Mr. Norman Osborne, and he wants help with a hereditary disease in his family.
This genetic disease will kill them very early.
Mr. Norman does not expect that he can be rescued, but he hopes that his son can grow up healthily.
Then start a family and start a business. "
Nick Fury introduces Norman Osborn.
And Steve's expression became even weirder.
It's like,
When he went to court in his ex-wife’s pajamas, which she almost didn’t own,
I found out that the judge sitting above me was my ex-wife’s current wife.
He is still the biological father of the child.
Then among the guys who were listening, there was a row full of reporters, the kind from entertainment tabloids.
"How can I help you?
Do you want me to find out your genetic disease and beat you up?
Then tell your genetic disease 'Mr. Norman Osborne is a great man, and I have been asked by the noble troublemaker Mr. Nick Fury to come and talk to you.
Now I've given you an offer you can't refuse. You'd better leave Mr. Norman Osborne, your loving father, obediently.
incidentally away from his son’.
What do you think of me saying this to the gentleman with the genetic disease? "
Steve curled up on the sofa, looking like "I'm tired, do whatever you want, just destroy it."
"Pfft~"
A laugh, from Constantine.
"I never thought Captain America could tell jokes of this quality.
To be honest, Nick Fury actually signed a contract. The content of the contract is that as long as Mr. Norman's genetic disease is cured (through Steve Rogers), Mr. Norman will become the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. "
Constantine said cheerfully.
This contract doesn't sound very serious.
Apparently Constantine forgot that Steve is no longer Captain America.
This thing is actually not a title, but a position?
"So, Nick Fury is planning to let Norman Osborn take the blame for him?"
Peggy Carter collapsed on the couch, as if paralyzed.
These days are tiring enough, so it’s normal to relax a little.
"No, there is no blame."
Constantine said with a rare seriousness.
"Okay, then he must have been shaken to his brain, he wouldn't be able to do such a thing without thirty years of cerebral thrombosis.
Helping someone treat their illness as a favor to yourself, but you also have to hand over your most precious thing to the other person?
Nick Fury, why didn't I realize you were a saint before?
Come here and let me slap your right cheek. "2
Peggy Carter said with some anger.
Nick Fury's face darkened.
He is one of the few atheists in this country, although he has actually seen God.
But he doesn't believe in God.
Who can believe that a wine god of thunder can bring a rich harvest to mankind?
Peggy Carter's taunt was ugly enough, but Nick Fury had no way to refute it.
After all, he signed the contract.
Although it was calculated by Constantine.
“Tell me, how did Constantine do it.
How could a dirty-hearted guy like you be plotted against one day? "
Steve finally sat up straight.
It looks like he's coming out of a middle-aged, er, old-age crisis.
It may also be that the jar is broken after social death.
"The guy got a needle on the white paper and pricked my finger."
Nick Fury said casually, but I don't know if he was very casual in his heart.
"If Johnny Blaze were here, you and he would probably have a lot in common."
Rumlow took out a bottle of wine and poured it into his mouth.
This is how Johnny Blaze was tricked back then.
"The question now is, Steve, can you help Mr. Norman Osborn!"
Nick Fury's voice was a little urgent.
“Well, it looks like the contract you signed is a little harsher than the one Johnny Blaze signed.
Should I say that he is worthy of Constantine? "
Rumlow threw the bottle to Constantine.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Constantine saluted, looking a little handsome.
