Norman hesitated in his heart, thinking of the anomaly in the message, and looked at Harry who was eating a salad, and finally his worries about Harry took over.
"Harry, I heard that you often go to the countryside with your friends recently... Do you have any friends living there?"
Norman put down his knife and fork, tried to make his voice gentler, and looked at Harry with searching eyes.
He did not directly say that Harry's friend had a problem, but wanted to see if Harry knew anything first.
"Zi--!"
Harry's hands were very strong, and the harsh sound of the knife and fork cutting on the plate immediately echoed in the restaurant.
Norman's sudden question made Harry feel nervous. He knew his father very well. He must have investigated his friends and found something.
Fortunately, he quickly controlled his power, otherwise with his current powerful strength, this plate would be chopped into pieces.
However, his strange behavior still made Norman frown, which showed that Harry's friend did have some problems.
"You investigated my friend!"
Harry stared closely into Norman's eyes, straightened up, and there was anger in his eyes.
"Harry... I am your father... I am responsible for your safety."
Norman met Harry's gaze, did not deny his investigative behavior, and his tone became softer.
He didn't want his relationship with Harry to become more tense, but in order to protect Harry, he didn't think it was wrong for him to do so.
"... Father?"
Norman looked directly at Harry with sincere eyes, and Harry, who was still a little angry, felt like a balloon was letting go.
He saw the love and concern in Norman's eyes, and an indescribable feeling came to Harry's heart.
Norman rarely showed such an expression in front of him. He didn't know how to describe it. He felt a little awkward... and felt at ease.
Harry lowered his head again, not looking into Norman's eyes, and Norman didn't urge him, just looked at him quietly.
Various thoughts appeared in Harry's mind, about the powerful power of Li Ge, about Path to Godhood and Nine Heavens of Li Ge, about the existence of Apocalypse, about his current power...
Harry's expression changed uncertainly, hesitating whether he should tell Norman these things. After all, Apocalypse had not started to spread the news about Nine Heavens on a large scale. He didn't know if telling Norman about it would affect Apocalypse's plan.
On the other hand, Harry wants Norman to seize the opportunity to become the first batch of people to enter Nine Heavens.
Harry, who has experienced his current powerful power, knows very well how dangerous it will be without power in the future.
Finally, Harry's expression became fixed. He raised his head again and looked at Norman seriously. "Do you know something?"
Hearing Harry's question, Norman's eyes narrowed. "Your friend named Li Ge... should be a Mutants, right? And it's very unusual!"
"What's so special about him?"
"When I was investigating him, I discovered that the military and a secret organization were also investigating him, and I was even warned once!"
Norman's eyes were as bright as fire, staring closely into Harry's eyes, as if he wanted to see through the secret in his heart.
Harry felt nervous when he saw Norman, but Harry didn't care about the people Norman said about investigating Li Ge, because he knew that these people had no influence on Li Ge or Apocalypse.
"Li Ge, you should know his name. About him... I can only say that it is beyond your imagination. If you want to know, I need to ask him... This is very important!"
After all, Norman and Harry have family ties. He did not refuse directly, but was going to ask Apocalypse. He had a hunch that Apocalypse was going to make a big move.
Norman looked at Harry's firm and serious eyes. As his father, Norman certainly understood Harry's character. This made him realize that there must be something about this Mutants named Li Ge that he did not understand.
"Okay... Sorry Harry... I didn't mean to investigate your friends, I hope you don't mind."
"Father... Father, I know."
Time passed, the sky curtain lifted, and the sun appeared in the sky again.
Apocalypse is alone in the underground space illuminated by fluorite. The original King Fruit Tree has become the handle of the statue of First Heaven, and now the place is blank.
Neither Thor nor Loki continued to stay here. Thor remembered the girl he loved after being reminded by Apocalypse, so he asked Apocalypse to send him to Jane Foster.
After Loki told Apocalypse about his idea, Li Ge had no objection, and then gave Loki a task that was unique to him. As long as he accomplished it, he would be satisfied.
Then Apocalypse let Loki leave on his own.
As for what Apocalypse is doing here?
This is because Apocalypse suddenly remembered that he had put Sandman Flint Marko into Divinity World of Li Ge but had not yet processed it.
He is now ready to communicate with Flint Marko.
Apocalypse stood where King Fruit Tree originally grew, waved his hand to the front, and released a huge sealed glass cube with a space of two meters long, wide and high inside.
The sand that was originally wrapped in a ball of Peter spider Silk was replaced by a half-meter high Flint Marko sand sculpture.
"Ho--!"
As soon as the block appeared, Flint Marko, who was originally calm, violently beat the glass on Apocalypse's side and roared with his mouth wide open.
"What a powerful survivability!"
Apocalypse didn't care about Flint Marko's irritability. Looking at his current mini sand sculpture form, even he couldn't help but admire him.
"Huh? Why is he here?"
Just as he raised his hand to prepare for the next move, Apocalypse suddenly paused. In order to avoid being monitored, he kept sensing the surroundings of the base. Now that someone was approaching the base, he immediately noticed it.
"Why are you here? What's the matter?"
Outside the wooden wall, at the door, Nick Fury was about to knock on the door, when Apocalypse's figure appeared silently behind him.
Nick Fury's strengthened body immediately ducked down quickly, drew the gun, turned around, and pressed the muzzle of the gun when he saw it was Apocalypse.
"What a powerful sensory ability. You noticed it as soon as I arrived."
He put away the pistol as if nothing had happened, Nick Fury stood up straight again, and then said, "Why don't you invite me to come in and sit down? I haven't been to your place yet."
Apocalypse frowned and glanced at Nick Fury. Nick Fury looked like a guest, and he couldn't say anything.
Without opening the door, Apocalypse teleported across space and returned to the underground space with Nick Fury.
"Wow~ I didn't expect that there is such a big underground space here!"
"... What is that? A Mutants?"
Nick Fury has become somewhat accustomed to Spatial Teleportation, and immediately began to look at the surrounding environment after his vision regained clarity.
The vastness of the underground space only surprised him for a moment, and then his eyes were attracted by the mini Flint Marko sand sculpture inside the huge glass cube.
