The beggar's story is very common, and it's impossible to determine whether it's true or not.

But Ling Yi left with a smile. At this moment, Ling Yi finally understood some things, or rather, confirmed some things.

" Ling Yi, I don't understand!" Red Queen's voice rang in Ling Yi's ears.

"It's just a story. Don't you think it's a complete story?" Ling Yi said with a smile.

"But there's an 80% chance this story is false."

"That's not important," Ling Yi said as he walked.

I remember watching a movie before, but I've forgotten the name.

"The protagonist of the film has his future planned out by his family from a young age. Even after his parents die, his life will be stipulated in their wills, and if anything goes wrong, he will not be able to inherit the family's estate."

" The Protagonist always lived according to a pre-planned path, step by step. In the eyes of others, he was a gentle, intelligent, and well-behaved child."

"He gets up at six every morning, exercises under the watchful eye of the butler, returns to the dining room at seven sharp for breakfast, reads the newspaper for half an hour, and then at eight o'clock, his first tutor begins his lesson..."

"Day after day, year after year, he was like a machine, repeating the same things every day."

"Until he turned eighteen, in the presence of his butler and lawyer, he finally completed every item stipulated in his parents' will and successfully inherited the estate."

"From then on, he became a completely free man. The butler and lawyer no longer had the right to supervise him. Do you know what the first thing he did after he was completely free?"

"He fired the housekeeper and the lawyer?" The Red Queen offered the most likely conclusion.

"No, he chooses death."

"Why?" the Red Queen asked.

"After the first failed attempt to die, the butler asked the Protagonist the same question."

The Protagonist tells him that he has lived within rules he despises since childhood, and he wants to break free from those rules.

"Isn't he already free?" the Red Queen, puzzled.

The Protagonist says he is free, but not completely free. He has become accustomed to the rules; his body, his soul, and his way of thinking are all accustomed to the rules he has cultivated over the past eighteen years.

"In the movie, every time the Protagonist chooses to die, various unexpected events occur: the rope breaks, he is accidentally seen by the neighbor's child, the housekeeper gambles and incurs debts, and the creditors come knocking on the door..."

" The Protagonist didn't die in the end, but in the process, he discovered that he had completely broken free from the rules."

At the end of the movie, the Protagonist said, "The unknown and choices are the meaning of life."

"And this world is that boy living under those rules."

"But what does this have to do with the story of that beggar?"

"Because I couldn't guess the ending from his story."

Ling Yi gazed at the sky and spoke slowly. The next moment, his figure vanished.

The Red Queen couldn't understand what Ling Yi was saying at all.

Even though the Red Queen is an intelligent life form, she still lives under rules.

Ling Yi, as an outsider, is able to step outside the confines of this world and see things more fundamentally.

Nothing happened that night. Ling Yi neither cultivated nor did any research. Instead, he slept soundly. Early the next morning, Ling Yi disappeared from New York City.

This disappearance lasted for a full week.

This week, Hydra personnel within S.H.I.E.L.D.. were wiped out, and Pierce was personally killed by Nick.

Tony also recovered his health.

In Old Bridge, Mexi State, a hammer falls from the sky; Thor is in love.

When Ling Yi returned, he brought back Captain America, Steve Rogers.

Also brought back was the Tesseract, also known as the Space Stone.

At Ling Yi's home, Steve is using the television to familiarize himself with this new era.

Ling Yi then handed the Tesseract to Red Queen.

With the Infinite Energy provided by the Tesseract, the progress of Seed Project will be greatly accelerated.

As for the Space Stone inside, Ling Yi would certainly not let it go, but now is not the time to take Space Stone out.

At this moment, Ling Yi was in the kitchen preparing the ingredients for hot pot. The aroma of the broth filled the room, making Steve was watching TV, somewhat distracted, glancing towards the kitchen from time to time.

After all, he hadn't eaten for almost seventy years.

"You Easterners really are all gourmets," Steve exclaimed.

"I've met a few Asians before; they're like Magic Mage, they can turn almost anything they see into delicious food."

"Haha, in this life, the only thing you should never miss is good food."

Suddenly, a semi-transparent interface appeared in front of Ling Yi's eyes; this was Natasha's request for a video call.

Steve looked at the incomprehensible "high-tech" with curiosity, wondering to himself if he was far out of touch with the world. Had technology really reached this level?

"Hi, Natasha!" Ling Yi greeted her with a smile.

Natasha was somewhat stunned when she saw Ling Yi's sunny smile.

She still remembered how Haki and domineering Ling Yi Ling Yi when they first met, especially his superior attitude, which left a very deep impression on Natasha.

She never imagined that Ling Yi, a being who seemed like a god, could smile so brightly.

"I think I smell food?" Natasha asked, snapping out of her reverie and twitching her pretty nose.

"Your feeling is right, do you want to come over and join us?" Ling Yi extended an invitation.

Why is this happening?

You can think of it as a kind of information transmission technology.

"Forget it, I wouldn't understand even if you explained it. Ten minutes!" Natasha gestured.

"Let's call Barton and Coulson, and bring Nick along too."

" Coulson and Barton are in Mexi State..." Natasha said, then suddenly realized that they both possessed Beast Armor, which allowed them to Teleportation.

"Okay, I'll tell them."

After ending the call, Ling Yi looked at Steve, who was walking over, and smiled, "I know what you're worried about. They are all comrades you can trust in the future."

"Comrades? Do I, an old soldier, still need to go to the battlefield?"

"Yes!"

Steve trusted Ling Yi, after all, Ling Yi Ling Yi had saved his life and hadn't imposed any restrictions on him.

After waking up, Steve didn't know where to go for a while, so he came with Ling Yi and stayed at Ling Yi's house for the time being.

"This world needs heroes," Ling Yi said slowly.

"It seems there's quite a problem."

"No, it's not a big problem, but for some reasons, it's not suitable for me to take direct action. Besides, your strength is somewhat lacking."

Steve neither refuted nor admitted it; as someone who had once fought on the battlefields of World War II, he too had his own pride.

"I have to go out this afternoon," Steve said, changing the subject.

Do you want to make up for that dance?

Steve paused for a moment, then smiled wryly, "I don't know how to face this."

"Trust me!" Ling Yi patted Steve on the shoulder.

This action made Steve slightly uncomfortable, after all, Ling Yi looked too young, still a high school student.

But he sensed Ling Yi's kindness.

The ingredients for hot pot are easy to prepare; soon, a large pile of ingredients was already laid out on the table.

A slight tremor ran through the room, and the next moment, Natasha, Barton, Coulson, and Nick suddenly appeared.

The ability to Teleportation is Ling Yi's bloodline ability, which he can use perfectly on his own. However, the Teleportation ability evolved after the Beast Armor absorbed his genes is ultimately flawed.

The spatial trajectory is too obvious.

This startled Steve, who quickly switched to Combat mode.

"Not an enemy!" Ling Yi laughed.

Natasha and the others looked at Steve simultaneously, their expressions incredulous; after all, that face was all too familiar to them.

Coulson, in particular, swallowed hard and asked cautiously, "Excuse me, are you... are you Captain Rogers?"

"If you're talking about that World War II veteran, then that's him!" Steve said.

"Oh my god, it's true! Unbelievable! You're still alive! Sorry, I mean, it's so good that you're alive!" Coulson stammered, somewhat incoherently.

Natasha explained to Ling Yi, " Coulson is a huge fan of the Captain; his room is full of Captain posters."

"Understand!"

"Is this really the Captain?" Barton asked.

Ling Yi nodded.

How did you find him?

"Because I've always known."

"What?" Barton was somewhat bewildered.

Nick walked over to Steve, extended his hand, and said, "Welcome back, Captain."

Steve and Nick shook hands, then Steve looked at Ling Yi, as if to ask, "Who is this guy?"

"Let's eat first. Steve wants to get familiar with this world. You can take him around later."

Ling Yi waved his hand and said.

Ling Yi's words made Nick's eyes light up. He understood what Ling Yi meant: he wanted Steve to join S.H.I.E.L.D..

Natasha and the others exchanged glances, completely confirming that Ling Yi Ling Yi had indeed changed considerably since their first meeting.

The Ling Yi of the past was too sharp, but the Ling Yi of now is like a gentle breeze.

Seeing their expressions, Ling Yi knew what they were thinking.

After thinking about it, he decided to tell part of the truth; otherwise, who knows what these people would imagine.

Moreover, there are some things that Ling Yi doesn't need to hide.

Many time travelers in novels don't want others to know that they are time travelers.

He kept it as his biggest secret.

However, in Ling Yi's view, given that he had control of the rhythm, there was no need to hide anything.

Especially in the Marvel Universe.

The universe itself is multiverse-based, and especially in the later stages, a multiverse-wide chaotic battle is almost certain to occur.

Currently, the coverage rate of Nano Seed has reached 31.2%.

That's enough for Ling Yi to deal with all kinds of enemies.

Nano Seed: Nanoparticles that can replace any substance and arbitrarily change the form of matter.

The 31.2% coverage rate refers to the proportion of the planet currently covered by the Nano Seed.

This was also the inspiration Ling Yi drew for the movie " Transcendence ".
