There is a certain risk in bringing the Winter Soldier into the Avengers. After all, he did kill Iron Man Stark's parents with his own hands during the time he was brainwashed.
Once this matter is exposed, the already shaky Avengers Alliance will inevitably fall apart.
But there are very few people who have the authority to know about this matter, only a few senior officials of the Soviet branch of Hydra.
Baron Zemo, who triggered the civil war in Captain America 3, has not lost any of his relatives in the Battle of Scovia, so it is naturally impossible for him to seek revenge from the Avengers.
Lu Xiao really can't spare much time now to worry about the infighting among the Avengers. Wanda has firmly stated that she will never go back to New York to see Stark again. The Winter Soldier is the most suitable person to join the battle as reinforcement under the current circumstances.
People.
The low pressure in Avengers Tower continues, and even Steve, who has always maintained a high fighting spirit, is a little discouraged.
He saw a lot of things in the past in the illusion created by Ultron using Loki's scepter. Among them was the appearance of Peggy Carter, who was already bedridden, when she was young. He still firmly remembers that he still owes
Peggy a dance.
There was also Bucky who had grown up with him. Steve once again recalled Bucky's scream when he fell off the cliff. The strong negative emotions caused the mentally tough Captain America to temporarily fall into depression.
Not to mention the others, Kuaiyin huddled in the corner with his head in his hands and muttered to himself in his native language, seemingly recalling the scene when his parents died.
Stark stared at the only remaining armor of the Iron Legion with dull eyes. Although he refused to admit it, he knew in his heart that his action of creating Ultron was too reckless, but he couldn't help but admit his mistake.
Under the influence of Loki's scepter, he witnessed the defeat of the Avengers with his own eyes, and Jarvis, who had been with him for the longest time, was also seriously injured due to the outbreak of Ultron.
When Tony was at his lowest, he couldn't help but think of his soulmate, Pepper Potts.
"Shua~"
In the lounge on the top floor of the S.H.I.E.L.D. building, a ring composed of energy cremation suddenly appeared, and the Avengers, who were originally in a trance, immediately stood up and took a defensive posture.
"etc!"
Hill raised his hand to stop the Avengers from their alert posture: "Don't get excited, we are our own, put down your weapons."
Steve looked at the hooded man who stepped out from behind the portal with confusion. Stark, who was in a bad mood, even opened his mouth and said sarcastically: "Wow~ Look who this is, a wizard from the Middle Ages across time and space?
"
"Great! This planet is getting more and more crazy, even these mice hiding in the dark can't help but jump out."
"Stark!"
Hill, Hawkeye Barton, Black Widow and others spoke at the same time to stop Stark's provocation. Steve looked past the hooded man and saw the familiar face walking out from behind him.
"Bucky?"
Although he was very excited, considering the heated exchanges during the previous meeting, Steve suppressed his excitement and asked cautiously: "Whose side are you on now?"
When Barnes saw his old friend again, his mood was also very complicated. While he was excited, he couldn't help but feel guilty about the previous sword fight.
"Do you still like to hide your house keys under the bricks at the door?"
As soon as Barnes said these words, Steve's originally tense shoulders immediately relaxed, and he couldn't help but smile.
Steve took out a satellite phone on the spot and dialed the preset number. He said to the microphone with a smile: "Sam, your inspection mission is over. Come back as soon as possible."
"Hey!"
The ignored Stark stood up again to increase his presence: "Has anyone noticed me? Does anyone remember that this is my building? Please do me a favor and arrest these two illegal intruders."
"I wouldn't do this if I were you, Tony."
"boom!"
A huge roar suddenly came from the roof of the Avengers Tower. Stark, who was already familiar with the Rainbow Bridge, rolled his eyes: "Okay, our breaking point actor is here too. It's really lively now."
Compared with Stark's unhappiness, the arrival of strong reinforcements made Hill, Barton and others feel greatly relieved.
Thor, who walked down from the roof, first waved to say hello to the other Avengers, then walked towards the hooded man with his trademark hearty and silly smile, and gave him a warm hug.
"Lu, how have you been during this time? I really didn't expect to see you here again."
As fellow Avengers, Stark, Steve and others are relatively familiar with this "god" from Asgard.
Although they were much easier to get along with than when they first met, Thor still maintained his pride as an Asgardian and had never embraced any of them so warmly before.
"land?"
Steve and Natasha looked at each other, with surprise and suspicion in their eyes.
"Hill, it's not the hacker Lu we know, is it?"
Faced with Black Widow's question, Hill shrugged noncommittally.
After closing the portal, Lu Xiao took off his hood, revealing the familiar oriental face of Steve and Natasha.
"Hey~dude." Steve raised his arm helplessly: "Who can tell me how many acquaintances with special abilities are hidden around us?"
Lu Xiao smiled and shook hands with Steve: "Sorry, I haven't obtained permission to reveal my identity before, so I can only help you in the name of a hacker."
In fact, Steve had guessed that Lu Xiao was not an ordinary person as early as after the Battle of Three Curved Wings.
It is impossible for ordinary otaku hackers to have such neat skills as him. Those are skilled combat skills that require long-term systematic training.
Not to mention the ability to jump from a height of several hundred meters into the water without getting hurt. Even Steve, who had been strengthened by the super soldier serum, dared not say that he could survive such a situation.
However, Black Widow had already noticed something was wrong with Lu Xiao through some clues, and she acted relatively calmly compared to the speechless Steve.
With the arrival of Thor and Barnes, the deserted Avengers Tower became lively again, and the previous low pressure was diluted by the joy of reunion.
"Let's get down to business."
Lu Xiao temporarily stood in the main position under Stark's unhappy gaze: "Thor, you should already know the origin of the scepter, right?"
Thor nodded: "Father...mother has told me the truth. It's a pity that Asgard failed to find a suitable home in time, so Tony took the opportunity to commit a big death."
"Hey! Shocking hero, pay attention to your... uh uh!"
Hill expressionlessly covered Tony's mouth from behind: "Shut up first and let's talk about business."
Lu Xiao shrugged nonchalantly. It was exactly what he wanted to be restrained by someone who restrained the overly expressive Iron Man.
“I still have time to return to Kamal Taj, to make a long story short.”
"Loki's scepter does not belong to him, but was temporarily given to him by a universe overlord named Thanos. Thanos is the real master of the Chitauri, and the scepter embedded at the top of the scepter
This gem is the focus of our meeting.”
"There are six infinitely powerful infinity stones in the universe, which respectively represent the six origins of the universe, time, space, power, reality, soul, and heart."
"The yellow gem on Loki's scepter is the Mind Stone, one of the Infinity Stones."
Lu Xiao's words caused a commotion. Except for Thor, no one present had heard of the concept of Infinity Stones, even though they had personally touched the Space and Mind Stones.
"As for Thanos' purpose..."
Lu Xiao glanced at Stark who had just sat down: "Although I don't want to believe that he can think so far, it turns out that Thanos deliberately left the Mind Stone on the earth in order to provoke civil strife on the earth."
"He tampered with the Mind Stone. Once someone uses the power of the stone to a large extent... Thanos's preset trap will be activated."
After learning the truth, Stark's face turned pale, but he still retorted stubbornly: "This is impossible! Do you think my action pattern has been seen through by Thanos?!"
Lu Xiao nodded heavily: "Unfortunately, judging from the results, this is the case."
"Mr. Stark, don't think that you are the only one in the universe who is favored by the God of Wisdom. Thanos, who was born in the Eternal Tribe of Titan, is also a genius among geniuses."
