Not long after the Lantern Rite, Coulson had approached Lin Ze about a special operation, hoping that Lin Ze and his companions could work together with the Avengers to complete it.
"Mr. Coulson, stop beating around the bush. Just get to the point."
Hearing this, Coulson smiled. "Aether, you're as direct as ever! All right, I'll get straight to the point. We'd like you and your friends to join the Avengers in wiping out Hydra and recovering the Scepter."
Paimon, who had been listening beside them for a while, finally understood. She clapped her hands. "Oh, I get it! Some bad guys took your stuff, and you want us to help get it back and give them a good beating. Is that right, Uncle Coulson?"
"Hahaha, that's one way to put it, Paimon."
Coulson turned to Lin Ze with a troubled expression. "Actually, this Hydra fortress isn't impregnable. The teams we sent have gotten close to the base several times, but Hydra's research into the Scepter seems to have produced some worrying results."
"What kind?"
Lin Ze frowned as he listened.
"Two people with superpowers have appeared. One is extremely fast, while the other's abilities are difficult to describe."
Coulson admitted, "According to one man who was lucky enough to make it back, she plunged him into the depths of his worst fears."
"She?"
"Yes. They appear to be a brother and sister. We still haven't determined what the younger sister's abilities are.
