Chapter 14
Justice League Building.
Tony sat in front of the conference table, and in other positions at the table, Steve, Felicia, Connors, Sam, and Gwen were all there.
Since the Battle of New York, everyone has gone their separate ways, and it has been a long time since we got together in a more formal way like now.
As for Black Widow, Hawkeye, etc., they are still performing missions in the field because they are affiliated with SHIELD.
At this moment, everyone is looking at a picture that Gwen called out from the battlefield.
Carnage spread its black wings and flew in the air, covering the sky like a fallen angel, looking down at everyone.
Even through the photos, everyone can feel the oppression caused by the massacre.
The one who had the deepest experience was Tony. He had come face to face with the slaughter, and he immediately felt the difference between the two.
He couldn't help but gasp,
"That monster eats a symbiote, and then it becomes like this? Turns into an angel? It makes me want to eat one."
"Sorry, Mr. Stark, I couldn't stop him," Gwen apologized.
"This is not your fault, Gwen. I think the symbiote parasitizing you should come out and explain."
Being called by Tony's name, the Phantom could only drill out a small tentacle from Gwen's shoulder and neck, and said in a royal voice:
"This is the first time I've seen this."
This scene made Steve and others very surprised.
"You haven't seen it either? In other words, this is abnormal?" Tony asked.
"No...it's not certain...in some extreme cases, symbionts do have this potential."
"So you can't be sure of the other party's current status, right?" Tony frowned.
"Um...Slaughter is a very rare case among symbionts."
Faced with Tony's strong questions, Phantom couldn't resist.
Seeing that the situation was somewhat deadlocked, Steve took the initiative to relax and said:
"Maybe he just has an extra pair of wings."
"That's best, Captain."
Tony's face looked a little haggard compared to the high-spirited one half a year ago, but he still had the aloofness in his bones.
"We have to prepare for the worst, no one has faced anything like this, right?"
"Aren't you a little too alarmist, Tony?"
"I must."
Tony replied, his overly nervous attitude made everyone not sure how to respond, and the scene fell into silence for a while.
Felicia couldn't sit still. She looked at the phantom's slippery tentacles curiously and asked:
"Gwen, did she really come right out of you? How on earth did she do that?"
The phantom demon also saw the white-haired catwoman, and the little tentacle nodded, as if waving to say hello:
"Hey there."
Felicia shrank her neck, "It's slimy and a bit disgusting."
The phantom was startled, its little tentacles awkwardly frozen in the air.
Gwen quickly reached out and stroked the injured tentacle to express comfort.
"Well, Miss Phantom, she doesn't mean any harm..."
"I understand, Gwen. Alas, our symbionts are like this. Sometimes we are disliked by some racial individuals with serious mysophobia."
Miss Phantom seems to be giving up on herself...
Others also looked curiously at the small tentacle leaning on Gwen's palm, gaining a more intuitive understanding of the symbiote.
Tony looked at everyone present and realized that he was a little too nervous.
The inexplicable anxiety in his heart for the past six months has affected some of his judgments... He breathed out and said:
"In short, the most important thing for us is to find the remaining symbiotes quickly and ensure their safety. We can't let Carnage get there first."
"Who knows what this thing will evolve into."
"But what should we do?" Seeing that he finally had the opportunity, Connors shook his tail and showed his presence.
"We have no news at all except for this one in Gwen."
"Venom, we'd better find Venom first. He is the father of Carnage and has been on Earth the longest."
The phantom waved its little tentacles and quickly spoke out his suggestions.
"Only he knows Carnage best and some of Earth's heroes, like Peter Parker."
Who would have thought that this time it would trigger the gossip again?
"Peter?"
"Isn't Peter missing..."
"Maybe she's talking about Peter from another universe."
"Another universe? Speaking of which, does another us exist in another universe?"
"Yes, this is the most basic theory of parallel universes, Felicia."
Seeing the topic twisting in such a strange direction, even Steve couldn't stand it anymore. He cleared his throat and interrupted everyone's chat.
"Everyone, we can talk about gossip later. Tony is right, our current situation is not optimistic."
This finally brought everyone back on track, and they fell silent.
Felicia frowned, wanting to do something for the Justice League. Soon, the slight frown on her eyebrows relaxed.
I can't think of it, no matter how hard I try, I can't think of it.
Meowth gave up.
Of course, no one has any hope that Felicia can really come up with any ideas. Her position in the league is probably more like a mascot.
At this time, Tony finally spoke again, "Actually, we didn't get nothing."
?
Everyone looked up at him.
Tony was unfazed and said, "I need to introduce a new friend to you...come in."
The latter sentence was shouted towards the door of the conference room.
Immediately afterwards, a girl with shawl black hair and wearing a black jacket and jeans walked in from the door.
Perhaps because she couldn't let go, the girl's movements seemed a little restrained.
"Jessica?"
Gwen was the first to speak out. When she saw the person coming, she couldn't help but be surprised.
Jessica Jones is Gwen's high school classmate.
She accidentally got into a car accident during a family trip, and all her relatives died. She was the only one who survived and fell into a coma.
Until the day the Chitauri invaded New York, she happened to wake up and punched a Chitauri to pieces, saving the life of Aunt May, who was working as a nurse in the hospital at the time.
Only then did she discover that she had gained two superpowers: great strength and flying.
During the Battle of New York, although she was confused because she had just woken up, she still extended a helping hand and saved some people along the way.
After that, being alone, she naturally embarked on the path of a superhero without much accident.
Of course, her path to superherodom wasn't smooth, and she's far less famous and influential than others.
According to the normal script, after a short career as a superhero, she will meet the man who changes her life, Zi Ren.
Then he was mentally controlled and went through a tormented and extremely painful time.
But now it seems that the chance is not great.
When Jessica saw Gwen, her originally reserved demeanor softened a little.
"Um...it's me, Gwen."
Although Gwen retired after the Battle of New York, in the last days, because Jessica saved Aunt May, Gwen personally thanked her,
It is precisely because of Gwen that Jessica becomes more determined to become a superhero.
She greeted everyone in the conference room and introduced herself.
Everyone nodded or responded, but they all looked at Tony with some confusion.
Although adding new blood to the Justice League is a good thing, it would be inappropriate to raise this point...
Sure enough, Tony said in the next second: "This kid also has a symbiote."
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw the same slimy but dark blue fluid coming out of Jessica's body and covering it into a battle suit.
At this time, Huan Mo also shouted in surprise:
"Ice blue?"
