"Pietro, stop wandering around, you should find a stable job." Wanda muttered while putting the food and bowls away quickly.
"Okay, sister, after I find that gem, I will make a fortune and I won't have to work for the rest of my life." Pietro rubbed back and forth on the chair with an impatient look on his face.
"Don't always think about getting rich!" Wanda sat down at the dining table and glared at her brother, "After all these days, have you seen anyone find that gem? It's not so easy to fall into a pie. It's better for you to find a job. Be more realistic."
"Those jobs are so boring and the salary is low. It's just enough to survive. If you want to watch a movie or buy some games, you have to be careful." Pietro broke open the bread, dipped it in the soup, stuffed it into his mouth, and muttered as he ate. With.
"Who told you not to go to college? This is how everyone survives, and there is nothing wrong with it. At least, our parents left us a house and saved the rent. As long as there is stability It’s a job, but life is actually not that difficult.”
"Okay, okay!" Pietro raised his hands and compromised: "Give me another week. If you still can't find it, I will go work for Mr. Casillas."
"Then it's agreed. I'll talk to Mrs. Casillas later, and you'll report there in a week. Don't let me go this time!" Wanda warned her brother repeatedly, worried about his heartbeat.
"Don't worry, it won't happen again!" Pietro finished the bread in two bites, drank the soup in one gulp, stood up and hurried out, "I've finished eating, you don't need to bring my share of lunch."
Wanda looked at the back of her brother who was leaving, sighed and shook her head, finished her breakfast slowly, then quickly put away the bowls, washed them and put them away, and then went out to work.
The view zoomed out, revealing the virtual screen and a group of Avengers in front of the screen. They were remotely monitoring Wanda and Pietro among the fighter planes above the clouds above the city.
"There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with her." Steve crossed his arms and frowned.
"According to the testing of the instruments and equipment, she does not have any magic fluctuations on her body. She is just an ordinary girl." Professor Hulk called up a series of data on another virtual screen and showed it to everyone, "I have the Scarlet Witch here. Detailed data, if Wanda has magic fluctuations, it must not be hidden from me."
Because of the latest situation, Steve transferred Professor Hulk over again. In the absence of Tony Stark, Professor Hulk is the most trustworthy technical expert.
"I just took a look at her and read her memory. She knows nothing about the Reality Stone." Nebula stood in the corner and conveyed the results of his investigation to everyone.
All data shows that this reality gem has nothing to do with Wanda. But everyone had a very strong hunch that the reality gem must be with Wanda, but no one had a clue where the gem was hidden.
If the gem was in the hands of an enemy like Hydra, the Avengers would definitely go up and kill him without hesitation and snatch the gem back. But the Scarlet Witch is everyone's friend, companion, and sacrificed comrade in another universe. It would be inappropriate to directly rob her.
"Where's Pietro?"
"There is no problem. I even let the nanobots make him fall a few times. Judging from Friday's observation, there is no trace of disguise. He is completely an ordinary person."
"We found something unusual!" Clint, who had been looking for some information nearby, suddenly interjected, "The Casillas that Wanda mentioned just now seemed familiar to me, so I searched it and found out …”
Clint held the virtual screen in front of him with his hand and flicked it, projecting the data inside onto the big screen in the center. In the center of the screen is a photo of a white man holding his son and holding his wife's hand while shopping.
Then Clint made a move with his hand, and another photo appeared in front of everyone. This is a picture of a battlefield captured by a satellite. On the right side of the picture are a group of guys wearing black hooded windbreakers, who look like cultists at first glance. Although the man in the lead has thick eye makeup and looks like a panda with a weak kidney, if you look closely, you can see that he is actually the same man as the man in the first photo.
"Remember it? This Casillas is the one who killed the Ancient Master. After so many years, I almost forgot about him."
"I remember Strange once said that this Casillas was seduced by the evil god Dormammu and fell into darkness. So the problem is, he, a dark magician, went to such a small country with high mountains and far away emperors. What are you here for?"
"Rather than saying that Wanda holds the Reality Stone, this Casillas must be more suspicious!"
"The two universes are very different. This Casillas may not still be a dark mage!"
"This is simple. Can't you just call Master Wang and find out?"
Professor Hulk immediately called Master Wang again, and then with a flash of red light, the portal opened in front of everyone again.
"Wow, your magic is so convenient!" Everyone was envious.
The king was not in the mood for small talk now. After passing through the portal, he couldn't wait to ask: "Where is Casillas?"
After the king's explanation, everyone realized that although Casillas in this universe did not kill the ancient master, he did more serious evil deeds. He sacrificed the lives of an entire city in Greenwich, England, to Dormammu in exchange for Dormammu's magical support.
"In other words, the current Casillas will be very strong?"
"Yes, we must be prepared before attacking him, otherwise it will easily cause harm to the people around him."
While several people were having a heated discussion, a voice interrupted them, "Steve, your female fans are begging you again. How are you going to deal with them?"
The two people rescued last night provided everyone with valuable information, so the Avengers took them back to the hotel. Afterwards, they met the two survivors of many superheroes and misunderstood them, thinking that they were here to save them. People from all over Europe were crying and laughing, and they had a good time venting their feelings in front of them.
When they learned that these superheroes were just passing by, they had missions here, and they would leave after completing them, the two of them were very disappointed. After that, they began to pray, hoping that the Avengers could save those relatives and friends who were living in pain under the rule of dark creatures. .
Although they were deeply sympathetic to the poor situation of European countries, the Avengers were busy looking for the Reality Stone and could not help them for a while, so they left them in the hotel below and asked Rhodes to stay with them here.
For these two ordinary people, Steve was also very helpless and could not drive them away. "Let's comfort them first. We will wait until we finish dealing with Casillas and get the Reality Stone."
"There's another thing. Yesterday, their car lost control and crashed into a house on the roadside. A child was accidentally hit and killed, but the police haven't come to interrogate them yet. I think it was the city hall that exerted pressure. I think we should Show something about it," Rhodes reminded.
Steve was stunned, slapped his forehead, and blamed himself:
"Oops, I forgot!"
"You're right, Rod. Although we can't bring the dead back to life, we must provide sufficient financial compensation. In addition, please explain to them clearly that the loss of control of the car was an accident, and the driver is very guilty about it."
"Of course, I will take the two of them to the family of the deceased to apologize in person, and the financial compensation will be very generous." Rhodes paused for a moment, considered his words, and said slowly: "Uh, actually what I want to say Yes...you should call Mayor Hanas to express your gratitude."
Hearing Rod's reminder on the phone, Steve's face froze and he responded in a low voice: "I know, I will personally call to express my gratitude after this is over."
Now that Steve understood, Rhodes ended the call without saying anything more.
After everyone discussed carefully, they first confirmed Casillas' location through satellite positioning, and then the Mage King teleported everyone to a predetermined battlefield in the suburbs.
"This place is open enough. When the fight actually starts, no one else will be accidentally injured. You only need to hold him down for a few seconds, and I can unfold the mirror world. After entering the mirror world, everyone can let go."
"I will open the space door in the sky soon, hoping to delay Casillas for a little longer. As soon as he appears, everyone will focus on attacking. He can't fly, and if he suddenly appears at high altitude, he will definitely use flying magic first. We have the advantage in the air battle, and we try to hurt him before he uses defensive magic, which may play a key role in the battle for a while."
Everyone put on steel suits, spread out and stood in the air, prepared for battle, and then nodded to the Mage King on the side.
The Wizard King first blessed himself with flying magic and flew high into the sky. Then, while looking at the satellite surveillance in Clint's hand next to him, he accurately positioned himself and drew an oval-shaped portal with both hands. Through this door, he was I saw the back of Casillas walking alone in front.
He pushed forward with both hands, and the portal moved forward quickly, swallowing Casillas in with a snap. At the same time, he quickly retreated, flashed the rings in his hands, and began to build a mirror world.
Everyone had been prepared for a long time. As soon as Casillas appeared, they opened fire immediately, and all kinds of ammunition poured out in an instant. In order to prevent being dodged, tracking missiles and laser beam attacks are mostly used.
After all, Casillas is also a great magician who once killed the Supreme Mage Ancient One, and once sacrificed the flesh and blood soul of a city to the evil god Dormammu. It is impossible to judge how strong he is now. Therefore, everyone designed more than a dozen backup plans to deal with counterattacks under different circumstances.
However, what surprised everyone was that this Casillas seemed to be just like an ordinary person. After losing his footing at high altitude, he panicked, danced and screamed. Not to mention using magic, he didn't even make the slightest move to resist. He was blasted to pieces by everyone's firepower on the spot. He turned into a pile of rotten flesh and fell to the ground, splattering out a disgusting picture of flesh and blood.
Everyone was unable to recover from this situation for a while. They were stunned for a moment, and then looked at the Mage King who was stuck there halfway through the mirror world, and asked hesitantly: "He is now in this puddle on the ground. , is it some magic circle that sacrifices oneself in exchange for powerful power? Or something that communicates with demons?"
The Mage King shook his head numbly, "No, this is not any known magic knowledge at all, this is just a pile of rotten meat. I think we may have killed the wrong person..."
Everyone took a breath and looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Rhodes called again. As soon as the call was connected, the other party shouted urgently:
"Steve, there's something wrong with this city!"
"The dead child is alive again!"
"Not only that, even the house that was hit by the car has been restored to its original state!"
"The weirdest thing is that no one remembers that such a vicious incident happened last night!"
After hanging up the phone, Steve looked around, "There was something wrong with our previous judgment! It's obvious that Casillas is not the person who owns the Reality Stone. Let's go see the resurrected child first, and then research whether the Reality Stone is Where and how did this happen?"
"What about Casillas?"
Steve took a deep breath, "Professor Hulk, please stay here. I will ask Natasha to send you some monitoring equipment. We need to find out first whether Casillas will be resurrected as well." . If he is resurrected, we need to know how he was resurrected, what the whole process was like, whether there were energy fluctuations from the Reality Stone, and many other questions."
Professor Hulk stretched out his hand and made an OK gesture, then landed on the ground and began to sample cells from Casillas's body in preparation for studying his body, while everyone flew directly to the scene of last night's accident.
After arriving at the scene, Rhodes and the two clients were already waiting on the other side of the street across from the house. It was obvious that this kind of strange thing made Nina very uneasy.
After comforting the two with a few words, the Avengers began to carefully inspect the house opposite.
With the current strength of the Avengers and the super technology of the Iron Suit, no clues can be hidden from their eyes. The final inspection result was that the walls of this house were completely intact, with no signs of being damaged or repaired. It looked like a good and intact house.
They knocked on the door again and entered, chatting politely with the family in the room. The other party knew nothing about the disaster they encountered last night, but thought that there was something wrong with the Avengers' minds. As for the resurrected child, he was alive and kicking, full of intelligence and energy, without any of the slowness of a living corpse. Taking the opportunity of giving the child candy, Natasha also confirmed that the child could eat human food and had not turned into a dark creature like a vampire.
Everyone said goodbye and left. After leaving the door, the Avengers were well-informed and did not have much emotional fluctuations, but Nina and the two were extremely nervous. They had just escaped from the rule of dark creatures, vampires, and did not want to fall under the control of another unknown dark creature.
Nina nervously grabbed Steve's arm and asked repeatedly:
"Is this place also ruled by some dark creature?"
"Is this the ability of dark creatures to make everything look like a game world, with arbitrary modifications and fixed-point refreshes?"
