The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 816 Signing the Agreement

London, England, inside the Atlanta Cathedral, the holy spirit song was low and solemn. Roger held the coffin and walked through the crowd with others. The tears in the corners of his eyes dripped silently at some point.

Ling Xiao and Falcon sat aside, watching this scene with a heavy heart. Peggy Carter passed away at a time when the world was about to fall into chaos. Isn't this a kind of luck, at least when she left, Her most beloved person came to see him off.

No one present was as heart-wrenching as Rogers. For him, his relationship with Peggy Carter had never been broken. Eight years ago, when he woke up in New York, time seemed to pass only by him. It's just one night.

Sharon Carter gave a speech at the end of the funeral, summarizing Margaret Peggy Carter's past life, and she also saw Captain America Rogers sitting at the front, and the same Rogers was full of surprise on his face.

When she was in S.H.I.E.L.D., Sharon Carter was responsible for monitoring and protecting Rogers. However, after the battle of the Tricurved Wing Building, S.H.I.E.L.D. disintegrated, Sharon Carter also joined the CIA, but Rogers never knew Sharon Ron Carter's true identity.

After the funeral, Ling Xiao and Rogers waited for Natasha in the empty church, and she brought the latest progress of the Avengers headquarters.

"Tony, Roddy, and Vision have signed the supervision agreement." After expressing her condolences to Rogers, Natasha told the two people what she knew: "As for Clint , he chose to retire. Wanda and Pietro have not yet decided."

"What about you?" Ling Xiao looked at Natasha, he wanted to know her position on this matter.

"I'm going to Vienna to attend the signing ceremony, and there are still a lot of empty seats on the plane." Natasha looked at Ling Xiao and Rogers, and persuaded: "Sometimes the best way to go is not necessarily the wrong way, the key is everyone To stick together, form doesn't matter."

"Then what are we going to give up? Are we bound?" Rogers shook his head lightly, and refused, saying, "Sorry, Natasha, I can't sign."

"I know." Natasha looked at Rogers and couldn't help sighing softly. To be honest, Rhodes' position was the firmest.

Hearing what Natasha said, Rogers raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Then what are you doing here?"

"I'm here for him." Natasha looked at Ling Xiao and persuaded in a low voice: "Ling, what is your choice?"

"Will my choice be any different from that of Rogers?" Ling Xiao laughed at himself and said, "Aside from my concerns about the so-called monitoring team, as far as this matter is concerned, similar worries that the US government can follow us a long time ago To communicate, but as for them, none of them chose to come to talk to us, to remind us, but to secretly connect with each other until the 117 countries of the United Nations reached an agreement, and then they came to force the palace, and they looked complacent."

Ling Xiao smiled disdainfully, and said: "In the final analysis, this matter is actually because of the irreconcilable conflicts between the Avengers and the governments of various countries. For them, they would rather hurt ordinary people than let the Avengers intervene." Helping to deal with it, in the final analysis, is because we have violated their right field, this is a power struggle, there is no way to avoid it."

Natasha lost all the calmness on Ling Xiao's blunt words. She said in a panic, "Ling, things are not what you think."

"Natasha, it's understandable if Steve doesn't believe me, but you, don't you really believe it?" Ling Xiao shook his head lightly and said, "Look, Avenger It's over, and whether we sign that agreement or not, the government won't let us go on missions."

If the agreement is not signed, the Avengers will naturally have nothing to do with them. Even if the agreement is signed, in Ling Xiao's view, the chances of the Avengers' dispatch will be greatly reduced. There are too many things in this world, too many People don't want to involve the Avengers anymore.

In the past, the Avengers were independent, and it was up to them how to perform their missions. But now those people with ulterior motives, those who could not reach the Avengers before, now have the means and methods to prevent them from carrying out their missions, and it is even possible to let the Avengers Act on their will.

"What about your choice, Ling, I need you to give me a clear answer." Even knowing Ling Xiao's decision, Natasha was still a little unwilling.

"I, I will probably choose to retire." Ling Xiao glanced at Rogers and said softly: "Those of us who don't sign the agreement, do we have any other options besides retirement? Why? Do they really want to drive the car?" Airplanes, tanks and cannons came to force us to sign, if that is the case..."

Speaking of this, Ling Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly. If the US government really dares to come to trouble him forcefully, then he will definitely let them know why every S-level strongman has the ability to destroy the power of the whole human race.

"In that case, then I won't say more." After a short pause, Natasha glanced at Rogers first, and then asked Ling Xiao: "Ling, I want to know, do you have any news about Bruce? ?”

Ling Xiao couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and asked with a puzzled face: "Bruce flew into the deep sky alone in a butterfly plane, what do you ask me about?"

"There's no need to pretend, I already knew about your departure from Earth some time ago." Natasha gave Ling Xiao an angry look.

"Tony revealed it to you?" Ling Xiao could only smile wryly and shook his head, glanced at Rogers who was also helpless, and then said: "I really don't have any news about Bruce, but I have already issued an anonymous reward on the planet Xandar. Looking for Banner's whereabouts, as long as there is a trace of him and news comes, he can always be found."

Ling Xiao entered the depths of the universe some time ago, not entirely for his own private affairs. Both Tony Stark and Steve Rogers asked him to find the whereabouts of Bruce Banner, so he said at the beginning that he still had to find someone , not lying.

"Ling, are you really not thinking about it?" Walking on the steps outside, Natasha couldn't help persuading her in the end.

"Nate!" Looking at the bright sunshine outside the church, Ling Xiao said with a slight smile: "You also know that except for some major events, I basically don't participate in other missions of the Avengers. In terms of my own practice, it will be a matter of time before I quit the Avengers."

After a short pause, Ling Xiao continued: "Natasha, there are some things I can't tell Steve, he doesn't understand, and he doesn't understand. This so-called Superhero Registration Act, in the final analysis, is actually a An arms race, an arms race in which various countries integrate superpowers, experiments, research, development, war, death, everything is possible, you should understand best, don’t you?”

The Black Widow who came out of the former Soviet Union certainly has a deep understanding of all this, which is why she chose to sign the treaty.

"I don't want to see you on the battlefield, Ling!" Natasha's face became very serious, Ling Xiao saw everything clearly, and his strength made him not afraid of any challenges, Natasha came Before, Tony Stark asked her to specifically persuade Ling Xiao to sign the agreement as much as possible. The solemn tone was not for ordinary people at all, even for Rogers, Scarlet Witch and others. He was not so solemn .

The breakthrough of Ling Xiao's cultivation base has been told to other people besides himself and Phoenix Girl, but it is not too difficult for others to guess, especially the illusion. It can be seen, but now, Vision is not so sure about Ling Xiao's strength.

Back at the London branch of Siwei Company, Ling Xiao met an unexpected person, a person who had not appeared in public for a long time, a person who many people thought he was dead, and this person was Ling Xiao who had been placed in Jiutou Grant Ward of Inside the Snake.

"Sir, according to information from some channels, someone is looking for a specific piece of information, for which many former Hydra agents have died." Grant introduced to Ling Xiao with a serious face: "These Hydra Snake agents have all worked in a secret base of Hydra’s former Soviet branch, and we believe this information is also closely related to the mission of the former Soviet branch.”

"Hydra, the former Soviet Union." Ling Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath. Could the dark hand behind the whole thing finally couldn't help but take action?
