Everyone frowned slightly.
Natasha felt somewhat miserable as well.
"I'm sorry."
At that moment, Hawkeye walked over to Wanda and apologized.
"Your brother sacrificed himself to save me. I feel terribly guilty."
Wanda neither looked up nor moved.
She spoke in a sorrowful tone.
"Will my brother come back to life just because you feel guilty?"
The scene immediately fell silent.
Losing a loved one certainly did not feel good.
Clap, clap~
At that moment, the ever-kind Captain America clapped his hands and stepped forward.
"Pull yourselves together, Avengers."
"We still have more to do."
"Even greater difficulties are waiting for us."
After Captain America finished speaking.
Everyone nodded and sighed.
Then they began going about their own tasks.
Wanda remained where she was, crying until the very end before closing her eyes, wiping away her tears, and leaving.
Afterward.
After the events of Captain America 2's Project Insight.
That was, the Washington incident where three helicarriers attacked each other and caused massive destruction throughout the city.
S.H.I.E.L.D. had in fact nearly faded from the mainstream spotlight.
It had been replaced by the Avengers base, independently established by Tony Stark!
Even the logo had been changed to a capital A inside a circle.
But that had nothing to do with Su Yi.
Because after he exchanged contact information with Gwen, she was called away by her team.
New York, a medical banquet.
After exchanging contact information with the extremely delighted Gwen.
Su Yi had barely watched Gwen leave.
Before Stephen arrived as well.
Holding a wineglass, Stephen came over to Su Yi and looked at Gwen walking away.
"She's an adult?"
"She's about to graduate high school."
"Oh, then you won't have to go to prison."
"(Middle finger)"
It had actually been a joke.
The United States had different regulations on this matter in every state.
But after high school, it was generally not illegal.
And women here all looked mature.
Girls like Gwen, who looked young and beautiful, were still quite rare.
That was why Stephen made that joke.
But he was also complimenting Gwen on being beautiful and young.
He had simply put it another way.
"What, did you just take another lap and come back?" Su Yi asked Stephen.
"Same as always." Stephen shook his head. "I feel like Christine is the best choice for the future."
Christine's full name was Christine Palmer.
She was also a trauma surgeon, Stephen's colleague, and they had a very good relationship.
They were in that stage beyond friends but not yet lovers.
Just one step away.
Su Yi nodded. "Then make your move soon."
Stephen thought about it, sighed, then turned around and attacked Su Yi instead.
"Then why do so many ladies come looking for you, yet I've never seen you bring a single one into your car?"
Su Yi had previously driven a Ferrari.
The fiery-red exterior, combined with Su Yi's handsome face and status, made plenty of women want to get into his car.
And once they got into the car, wasn't it obvious?
He could just drive them home and get down to business.
Stephen understood.
If Su Yi wanted to, he could become a playboy immediately, just like Stark. Any beautiful woman would do.
But Su Yi had not taken a single one home.
He had even stopped driving later on and only rode in Stephen's car.
Stephen was rather puzzled by that.
Su Yi liked beautiful women, yet he did not sleep with a single one. Why?
Could it be...
At that moment, through the Phoenix Force.
Su Yi had already sensed Stephen's thoughts.
He was actually questioning whether Su Yi could perform?
"Think one step further, and your Lamborghini will be sinking into the sea tonight."
"Alright, I was wrong."
Stephen immediately begged for mercy, shaking his head with a sigh.
"I have to admit, Su, your psychological abilities are incredible."
What a joke.
Did he even understand the value of the Phoenix Force?
The Phoenix Force in its peak form—not a fragment—could crush the Five Divine Powers, alright?
This ability had only two flaws.
The first was that fragments had to be collected, otherwise its power would have an upper limit.
For example, Su Yi could currently only be considered a sub-Celestial or Celestial-level being. But as long as he gathered more Phoenix Fragments, he would rise to Universe-level, even Multiverse-level, Super Multiverse-level, and beyond.
The other was that the ability possessed the Phoenix's own will, so its wielder would be affected to varying degrees.
Su Yi had been affected at first as well.
There was a damn Phoenix flying around in his mental world all day, annoying the hell out of him!
It also made him easily irritable and prone to going berserk.
Fortunately, Su Yi later obtained another powerful ability through his daily check-ins.
Purification.
Simply put, it could erase any existing side effects.
At first, Su Yi had thought it was weak.
But he later discovered that it was actually a supreme ability!
As long as there was something that made you uncomfortable or displeased you, you could purify it away with this ability.
The residual will within this Phoenix Fragment had been purified by that ability.
At the same time, the Marvel Universe was full of abilities and items with severe side effects.
