Chapter 144 Steve Rogers
After Harry Osborn's departure, Stark Tower fell silent.
Because Tony originally thought that Bant would come to the appointment tonight. As a genius recognized by him, Tony took Bant's reminder very seriously.
But unexpectedly, the person who showed up was Harry Osborn, and what was even more surprising was that Bant actually asked Harry to leave him a disc mark.
Of course he recognized the mark.
"Tian Gong..."
"Could it be that Bant Parker is related to the Tiangong Association?"
Tony clenched his chin and thought.
It can be said that on this earth, he was the first person to recognize the existence of the Daotian Association, and he was also the first superhero to fight against Bant's alien heroes.
It’s just that Tiangong didn’t even exist at that time.
"Jarvis, disconnect the external network and call up the file, 'Alien.'" Tony followed Bant's instructions, disconnected the external network, and then opened Jarvis' local file.
"Yes, sir."
Jarvis calmly opened a folder, and a virtual image was projected into the air. Several monsters of different shapes were captured at different angles.
First the Flash Star, then the Flame Man…
I have to say that Tony's photography skills are pretty good. The photo of the Fire Man falling from the sky looks really handsome.
In addition to these two that Tony has seen himself, there is also the Four-Armed Overlord and the Diamondback, which are from the internal information of .
This is Tony's own hack.
Nick Fury, a guy with a heart even darker than his face, said that he would share information with Tony, but he kept the fact that he met the Four-Armed Overlord and the Diamond God of War in New Mexico a secret.
That black braised egg is very bad!
But now, what Tony cares about is the connection between Bant and this alien organization.
There was no point in just guessing, so he planned to immediately check the USB drive that Bant had given him.
After plugging it into the computer, the data is read immediately.
Image display.
"Video surveillance?"
Tony was stunned, and then his pupils constricted.
The surveillance video in front of him showed the date as December 1991, 12. That year, Harry Potter had just started attending Hogwarts... No, this was the day his parents were murdered.
A...
Premeditated murder!
He saw the masked man coldly strangle Howard Stark to death, and then shot his mother in the car several times without any emotion.
Finally, the murderer raised his head and looked at the camera from a bird's-eye view. His eyes, filled with coldness, seemed to be looking at Tony through the machine and nearly twenty years of time.
The black muzzle of the gun was also aimed at Tony's heart.
boom!
The picture shattered instantly.
Tony also seemed to be hit by a bullet, his body shaking violently. He held on to the table, his face pale.
"gentlemen?"
"I am fine."
Tony felt his breathing become a little rapid and heavy.
He felt dizzy, as if he had lost too much blood, his legs went weak, and he slumped in his seat.
At this moment, he didn't care at all about the hidden purposes of those so-called aliens and the so-called organization. He just wanted to find the murderer who killed his parents right now, and then use the palm cannon of the armor to blow up the other person's head!
"Right now," he breathed, "Call Bant Parker right now!"
"Sir, Harry Osborn reminds you not to call Mr. Parker for the time being." Jarvis did not immediately follow Tony's order, but raised a question.
This calmed Tony down a bit.
The key is whether . is trustworthy.
When Harry Osborn left, he specifically told him that Bant was now in . and asked him not to call him immediately.
This means that at least Bant doesn't really trust .
So Tony sat on the chair, shaking his feet anxiously. After a while, he stood up again and opened a new bottle of wine for himself.
On the other side, in .
Bant and Nick Fury ended their argument, and then Bant asked to visit the aircraft carrier.
"I've never even been on a cruise ship in my life, but I never thought I'd be able to ride on an aircraft carrier one day." Bant said, "Can you let us take a tour?"
"Okay." Nick agreed decisively, but he also emphasized, "But I have to make it clear first that not all places are allowed to be visited. There are many places on the aircraft carrier that are classified as confidential locations."
"understand."
In response, Bant immediately nodded and said, "Just like my company, not every floor is open to the public."
Nick was surprised to find that Bant had suddenly become much more understanding.
Bant explained:
"Come on, I'm pretty good already. If I didn't knock and bypassed all the security systems and sat in your office, do you dare say you wouldn't have all the agents with weapons drawn to greet me?"
"Besides, if I really wanted to kill you, I could tear your head off right there."
Nick Fury thought about it and agreed.
Then he remembered what Bant had mentioned before, that he wanted to study the Cosmic Cube. Since he secretly restarted the Cube and planned to make weapons, the progress of the research has been very slow. If Bant could join the research team, he might make some unexpected progress.
But he just thought about it and it was impossible to really invite Bant to participate in the research.
As an agent, Nick Fury is not stupid enough to reveal his true colors to someone he cannot trust.
In his opinion, there were two problems with Bant Parker. One was that he could not fully trust him, and the other was that he could not fully control him.
Since the Avengers are an alliance, they do not have much practical binding force.
He cannot be considered Bant's immediate superior, and he cannot afford to hire an employee with a net worth of hundreds of billions.
"Let the captain show you around. Coincidentally, he will be the leader of the Avengers in the future," said Nick Fury.
He left superhero matters to superheroes, which was exactly what Bant wanted.
If there is anyone in SHIELD that Bant wants to win over, Steve Rogers is naturally one of them.
This is exactly what he and Peter said -
banner!
A very good source!
Not only that, Captain America is also a powerful combat unit.
Putting aside the forced 50-50 attribute, now the disfigured Thor can only swing a sledgehammer at a construction site, and the real Thor's hammer is not in New Mexico, so he must be taken in by .
To win over Captain America is equivalent to winning over Thor.
Under the pretext of joining the Avengers, Bant attacked from both sides. On the one hand, he asked Harry to find Tony Stark, a non-member of the Avengers, while on the other hand, he prepared to incite Captain America to rebel.
Originally, Peter could have done this himself, just like asking Harry to contact Tony.
But the problem is that Peter is too naive. He can't even lie well. If we really throw him into the spy's nest alone, I'm afraid he will be bitten by those poisonous snakes until not even a bone is left.
Nick letting them act alone was exactly what Bant wanted.
But the actual situation was not as good as Bant imagined.
Although Nick Fury said that he would let Captain America take them on a tour, in reality, no matter where Bant and his friends went, they would occasionally run into one or two . agents walking by.
Clearly, they were being watched.
But Bant wasn't sure who sent these people to monitor them.
It could be Nick Fury, it could be Hydra, or it could be a spy from some other organization.
A lot of people will be interested in Spider-Man's identity.
Seeing this, Bant had to put away the things he was going to show Captain America and start talking to him about other topics.
"You know, Captain, when I heard Spider-Man tell me you were still alive, I thought he was dreaming."
Hearing this, Captain America smiled and said, "Sometimes I feel like I'm dreaming myself."
"It's very uncomfortable, right?"
"Yeah, the world is changing so fast. My enemies used to be just soldiers, but now I have to face all kinds of monsters and robots... And the way we live now, you know, the bed they arranged for me is also soft. Sometimes I feel like I'm lying on cotton and sinking into it. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and I think I'm in a cloud."
Perhaps because Steve knew that Bant and Peter were both relatively young, he relaxed his guard a little and didn't hold back when communicating with them.
"Post-war syndrome?"
"Not really. I think it's more like an old man who feels lost after entering an era that doesn't belong to him."
Steve laughed to himself.
Bant could understand this.
It’s like Li Hongzhang in the late Qing Dynasty was shocked by the modern city after he came to the United States.
An old man from an old era, who was not very good at using mobile phones and could only write down all new things with notes, suddenly broke into a splendid city.
"I think you are still very young, Captain, don't say that, I am your fan."
Bant said.
On the other side, Nick Fury, who was monitoring their conversation, sneered and said:
"This is a lie!"
"In the past decade or so, there have been only a few searches related to Captain America in Bant Parker's mobile browsing history, but there have been quite a few searches related to America's hips."
After hearing what he said, Natasha turned off the communicator expressionlessly, then rolled her eyes and said:
"Boss, sometimes there's a reason why you're not liked by others."
"Don't make a mistake. I'm doing this for the safety of humanity." Nick Fury said immediately, "Didn't you hear that he was trying to get close to the captain?"
"Maybe he just wants to find something to talk about. Otherwise, it would be a bit rude to just say 'Old man, I'm not interested in your affairs at all'." Patton laughed, "The captain will be their leader in the future, so there's nothing wrong with asking for some advice."
Back to Bant and Captain America.
Bant could clearly feel that Steve was actually very confused about this new world.
He was at a loss, and also felt lonely and panicked.
Those people he knew are long gone, and this prosperous world may not necessarily need Captain America anymore.
Therefore, when he first heard from Nick Fury that there were still some remnants of Hydra, in addition to anger, he even felt a little relieved.
This means he is still useful.
This means that this old thing that has been frozen for seventy years still has room for use.
