For a senior agent deeply trusted by Director Egghead, Coulson is undoubtedly quite busy.
To be precise, he couldn't even enjoy the "blessings" of 996. He often maintained high-intensity overtime work of 007, and sometimes he couldn't even get three hours of sleep a day.
After receiving the new task, he did not complain at all that he had not slept for more than 30 hours, and started working without stopping for even a second.
Fortunately, the food I ate at Sky City greatly relieved my fatigue. Otherwise, I would probably have died suddenly on the way.
The task Coulson received this time was to investigate the terrorist attacks and kidnappings of billionaire Tony·Stark.
As the only son of Howard, the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., and one of the world's most famous genius scientists, the future Iron Man has actually been secretly inspected and protected by S.H.I.E.L.D..
After all, Nick Fury also hopes that he can inherit the will of Howard and help him research the secrets of Space Stone-Tesseract, so that mankind and the earth can obtain a trump card that can resist the invasion of foreign enemies at critical moments.
Unfortunately, Director Egghead didn't know that the power possessed by Infinity Stones was far beyond the control of S.H.I.E.L.D..
To be precise, there are few people in the entire universe who can completely control the power of Infinity Stones.
"Allen, I'm leaving soon. Is there anything else you want to tell me?" Sakura asked, standing in front of a small spaceship.
Obviously, she is about to go to the vast universe to deal with more advanced space civilizations.
This small spaceship was created and designed based on the giant spacecraft.
After all, there are many powerful space civilizations in Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Large battleships are too eye-catching and can easily cause unnecessary trouble.
In contrast, small spacecraft are not only extremely flexible, but also have a certain degree of concealment.
When necessary, you can even discard it directly and return Azerath through transmission.
Allen shook his head slightly. "No, there is nothing to advise, as long as you have fun. Also remember to make more money and collect the technology of major space civilizations."
"You mean... no taboos?" Sakura opened her mouth in surprise.
"Well! You can do whatever you want this time, even if you join Ravagers and become an interstellar pirate." Allen answered directly in the affirmative.
Hearing these words, Sakura suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and exclaimed in an exaggerated manner, "Wow! Does the sun rise from the west today? Why do I feel like something is wrong with you?"
"Haha, isn't this the independence you've always wanted?" Allen asked with a half-smile.
"Are you being sarcastic?" Sakura's eyes shone with vigilance and scrutiny.
"No! This time I am serious and decided to give you a chance to prove myself. Go ahead and do whatever you want in the vast universe. I promise not to interfere." After that, Allen showed a completely letting go attitude.
"Are you really not afraid that I'll make a big fuss?" Sakura raised her eyebrows and continued to test.
"It doesn't matter!"
Allen shrugged meaningfully.
Seeing that her "adopted father" didn't seem to be joking this time, Sakura's face suddenly flashed with joy. Without saying a word, she jumped into the spaceship, started the engine, and jumped off the ground with a roar, flying out of the atmosphere.
Of course, this move instantly triggered a chain reaction of North American Aerospace Defense Command.
All of a sudden, various emergency plans were launched one after another, and the intelligence agencies even took action after hearing the news.
About a few minutes later, Director Egghead called me personally.
He was so worried that he even omitted the greeting and simply asked directly, "Isn't it you who caused the UFO just now?"
"If you are referring to the spaceship that just broke through the atmosphere, yes, it's me." Allen admitted it openly without hiding anything.
"What? You sent a spaceship into the universe?" Nick Fury's tone was full of shock.
Although in Coulson's report, he has learned that the other party has a huge helicarrier, and it will be a matter of time before it enters the universe.
But I never expected that this day would come so quickly.
"Don't worry, the universe and alien civilization are not as powerful as you think, and the earth is not as weak as you think." Allen comforted casually.
"Can you swear that you will not bring danger and disaster back to the earth?" Director Egghead asked in a serious tone.
"Of course! I promise." Allen made the promise without thinking.
After hearing these words, Nick Fury obviously relaxed a little. "Okay, I will do my best to make this riot calm down as soon as possible. Next time something similar happens, I hope you can say hello to us in advance. You must know that our politics is highly complex and sensitive, and a little carelessness may cause huge misunderstandings."
"Okay, I understand." Allen agreed simply.
"Thank you very much for your cooperation. Finally, I wish you a happy weekend."
"I also wish you a happy weekend, Mr. Director."
As the last word blurted out, the two hung up the phone almost at the same time.
Looking at Allen standing there with a faint smile on his face, Artoria finally couldn't help but ask, "Did you do this on purpose?"
"How can you see it?" Allen asked without looking back.
"With the technology and capabilities we have, it is very easy to fool those radars. But you deliberately let Sakura fly over the country without any cover-up." Artoria replied immediately.
"Your intuition is still as scary as ever." Allen turned around and stared into those green eyes. "That's right! In fact, this is testing the degree of interference to the timeline, or how much Sorcerer Supreme Ancient One can tolerate us destroying the timeline."
"So you chose Sakura as the biggest variable?" Artoria narrowed his eyes with a thoughtful expression.
"Yes! Only by injecting more uncertainty can it be possible to create Infinity. The most important thing is that Sorcerer Supreme only protects the earth and is not very interested in what happens in the universe. This gives me a lot of room to operate."
When he said these words, Allen's eyes instantly became extremely deep.
Obviously, although he reached a PY deal with Ancient One, it was limited to the earth and did not include the vast universe.
"What about me? What do I need to do?" Artoria pointed to his nose.
"You don't need to do anything for the time being, just enjoy food and life. Here, this is a bank card with about three million dollars in it. You can do whatever you want. But one thing is that you cannot use Holy Light Power in public. Because in the eyes of people in this world, it is too shocking to instantly heal wounds, eliminate all diseases, poisoning and magic effects, and resurrect the dead."
After that, Allen put the bank card in his hand into Saber's hand.
no way!
Who makes Artoria's character too stubborn and unsuitable to intervene in the current highly complex situation?
Otherwise, it will be easy to be used by old foxes like Hydra and Nick Fury.
"Can't you use Holy Light Power? Okay, I understand."
Saber nodded slightly to express understanding, and then stuffed the bank card into his pants pocket.
In fact, even without using Holy Light Power, she is still a powerful knight.
At the same time, far away in the Afghanistan mountainous camp, the First Hokage Iron Man suit manufacturing of Tony·Stark was also coming to an end.
With the help of his strong hands-on ability and the rudimentary materials provided by the terrorists, he has almost completed the forging of all the parts he needs.
Just to prevent being discovered in advance, they haven't been assembled yet.
What's even more outrageous is that this guy actually wrote all the software necessary to drive Iron Man suit in such a short period of time.
"Phew - finally done!"
Ethan was exhausted from working all night long. He sat on the ground and gasped for air.
Tony next to him was not much better. He also wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed at himself, "Yeah! It's not easy! This may be the worst condition I have ever created in my life."
"Are you sure this big guy can help us escape?" Ethan's tone was full of uncertainty.
After all, there are hundreds of terrorists outside, each carrying extremely advanced fully automatic weapons, and even heavy weapons such as individual soldiers Rocket Launcher and large-caliber machine guns.
"Believe me, it will teach those bastards an impressive lesson tomorrow." Tony picked up the visor helmet made of alloy and gave a confident assurance.
Just when he wanted to simply eat something and drink some water to replenish his strength, he suddenly saw Roa sneaking in from outside dragging a slightly heavy bag.
It's easy to tell from his skillful movements that this isn't the first time he's done this.
Before the two people in the cave had time to react, the black cat shook hard.
moment!
Roll out a few cans of beer and some snacks like potato chips from the bag.
Obviously, these things were stolen from terrorists.
For Tony·Stark, who had not touched alcoholic beverages for several days in a row, and even ate simple compressed biscuits and military rations, this was simply an irresistible temptation.
He didn't even hesitate. He directly opened one of the cans of beer, raised his head and drank almost half of it. Then he took a long breath, touched Roa's head excitedly and praised, "Great job! You are such a clever little guy! After you escape, I guarantee that you can eat the most delicious fresh steak and tuna in the world every day."
"Meow-"
The black cat let out a low meow, as if in response to this promise.
Ethan opened a bag of potato chips, grabbed a handful and put it in his mouth. While chewing it, he said sadly, "Damn it! Ever since I was caught by these guys, I almost forgot what potato chips taste like."
"Here! Drink some. The wine can relax your tense nerves." Tony handed over a can of beer.
In this way, the two of them spent a short but happy rest time relying on the three cans of beer and two packets of potato chips stolen by the cat, and soon got back to work in full swing.
When the night passed and the scorching sun rose from the horizon again, raising the ground temperature to over 60 degrees Celsius, they finally completed the assembly of all parts and began to write the control software.
At this critical moment, violent smashing sounds and loud shouts suddenly came from outside the door.
You don't need to ask to know that the terrorists finally noticed something was wrong through the surveillance and planned to break in to check the situation.
Although they generally do not receive any higher education, they are not fools either.
Especially when Tony and Ethan hid in the surveillance blind spot and did not show up for such a long time, anyone with a little bit of brain would realize that something was wrong.
Looking at the half-loaded progress bar on the screen, Ethan immediately realized that at the current speed, there was no time to start Iron Man suit before the enemy rushed in.
So without saying a word, he directly picked up a steel pipe and hid behind the wall next to the gate.
When the first terrorist broke in, he was hit in the back of the head by a steel pipe falling from the sky. His eyes went black and he fell to the ground and fainted.
Picking up the weapon that the other party dropped on the ground, Ethan took a deep breath and said to the playboy and genius scientist who had been with him for several days, "Tony, I will go out and create some noise to buy you time."
"No! Don't go! You will die!" Tony·Stark quickly shouted to stop him.
It's a pity that he is currently wrapped in the immovable Iron Man Armor. He can only watch the opponent rush out of the cave, constantly pulling the trigger to shoot bullets, attracting the attention of all the terrorists in the entire base.
New York and Artoria, who are far away on the other side of the earth, are watching all this happen through magic projection. They frowned and asked, "Are we just going to watch a good man being killed without being able to do anything?"
Allen nodded slightly. "Well! Ethan must die, and he must die in front of Tony·Stark. Only in this way can he get out of his originally corrupt life and become the person who is willing to do everything for others. People sacrifice their own Iron Man. You have to understand that human emotions are very complicated. In many cases, the dead can have a greater impact than the living. What's more, this is the most important part of the timeline. If we interfere, then Sorcerer Supreme Ancient One will inevitably appear."
"Is this person like a chess piece being sacrificed?"
Artoria's eyes revealed naked anger and disgust.
"That's right. But if you really want to save Ethan, you can bring his body back and resurrect it when Tony·Stark leaves. But there is one thing to note., Ethan must live in isolation for at least two or three years after his resurrection. He must not meet Tony·Stark until the timeline is stabilized."
In Allen's view, Ethan is actually creator of Iron Man.
He was not only the savior of Tony·Stark, but also provided the latter with inspiration for the miniaturization of Arc Reactor, and even served as Iron Man's life mentor.
It was the phrase "Cherish life, don't waste it" that made this playboy who had been wandering for half his life finally wake up and embark on a completely different life path.
Therefore, the death of Ethan must not change anything!
Otherwise, the original Iron Man will disappear.
Replaced by Tony·Stark who are cynical and have no sense of responsibility or mission.
