The era of American comics begins

Chapter 471

A S.H.I.E.L.D. team is off to clean up their boss again.Tony Stark, who returned to the mothership, didn't say anything, didn't explain anything, and went straight back to his office.

When Maria Hill pushed the door and came in, Tony hadn't even removed the armor on his body—he was just sitting in the chair behind the desk in the steel armor, thinking about something.

Hill locked the door and stood there for a while before asking, "Would you mind telling me what's going on?"

Tony didn't say a word, but silently blocked the signal in the office.The chief's office had activated the silent mode - the signal could not come in or go out, and the whole room was basically a small closed box.

"...I encountered some kind of high-tech armed mecha there." Tony said in a deep voice, "The internal design is something I have never seen before anywhere, using some kind of new technology-my initial guess may be It is an alien technology that we have not yet touched. But its basic materials are patented by Stark technology. In addition, many of the details it shows in battle are consistent with the driving characteristics of the arc reactor. Put that thing I re-scanned after it was blown to pieces, and I did find remnants of the reactor's constituent elements from the debris."

Hill frowned: "What does this mean?"

Tony didn't answer directly, but continued on his own: "Very few people know about transporting the reactor—not even mentioning it to you. It's not because I don't trust you, it's just because it's not under your jurisdiction. But The people who know about this matter should be people I trust. I can’t think of any possibility of leaking.”

Hill seemed to understand what he meant: "You're talking."

"There is a ghost among us." Tony said with a dark face, "It's inside the Aegis."

Hill was silent.

Inner ghost, this word has now become the biggest pain of S.H.I.E.L.D.—especially for the old S.H.I.E.L.D. department that has experienced the big cleansing.A large number of Aegis agents have entrusted their beliefs to the organization. They firmly believe that what they are doing is fighting for the future of mankind and building the most solid shield in the world. In the end, it turns out that they themselves are the ones who are poisoning the world. Part of the deepest evil.

Many people have experienced the collapse of faith, and it is difficult for those who have not experienced that moment to empathize with them.But even so, as this new S.H.I.E.L.D. was established, many returned.Because even after going through so much, they still have ideals and beliefs.

But now they are back again, facing the same situation—there are ghosts lurking in this Nirvana-reborn S.H.I.E.L.D., the number and level of which are unclear.

Hill asked, "Is it Hydra?"

"I don't know but I don't think it should be." Tony shook his head, "It's not their style. And I believe that Hydra should have been completely eradicated this time, and there should be no more leftovers this time."

"Who else would it be?"

"That's the problem." Tony said sullenly, "I don't know."

***
Somewhere where the location is kept secret, Tianjian's mutants gather stronghold.

"Coke, lemonade, or soda?"

Lorna Dane, the leader of the mutant stronghold, was wearing a denim miniskirt and a lace short-sleeved T-shirt, bending over to find a drink in her freezer.She turned her head and asked the little guest in the living room: "Maybe there are still a few bottles of milk, maybe you want to drink milk?"

"No, thank you." Wanda politely declined.

This is considered her routine task—Michael said that because Wanda decided to intervene in mutant affairs from the beginning, even though Michael nodded in agreement, all mutant-related affairs are Wanda's responsibility.She would come here regularly to inspect the situation, and communicate with the mutants here to confirm that everything is fine.

To be honest, she quite likes this job, it should be considered a trip.And since Wanda knew that she was also a mutant, being with these compatriots would make her feel inexplicably at ease—especially Lorna.Although she still didn't know why, she felt that the green-haired little sister was very friendly, and she was always very speculative when chatting.

Lorna was also not polite to her, she took a can of soda and walked back, drinking it while sitting back on the sofa.

"It's nice here," she said, "to see Mr. Passo and thank him for me—for all of us. We've moved a lot in the past, but we've never been able to avoid conflict. There's always some idiots like Chasing us around with guns like we were beasts out of cages. But here we are at peace like never before. This is the first time we've found a place where we really never have to run, no Need to fight, just live in peace.

I think maybe this is what we've been looking for. "

Wanda smiled and said, "If you think so, Mr. Passo will definitely be happy too."

In fact, Wanda can also see that Lorna seems to have undergone some subtle changes compared to when they first met.Once, Lorna's eyes seemed to have a hostility all the time—especially when facing humans, it was as if she had locked herself in a cage and was always on guard against the world.

But now, that thing in her eyes was gone, as if for the first time she had found a place where she could let her guard down and get a good night's sleep.

Wanda was happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

"Okay, work done, how about we talk about your business?" Lorna suddenly smiled.

"My business? What do I have to talk about?" Wanda shrugged.

"Of course there is. For example, you and Mr. Passo?"

"We...how?"

"Oh, don't be stupid, everyone can see your relationship."

"Is it so obvious?" Wanda raised her eyebrows, but she didn't deny it - anyway, there was nothing she couldn't admit, "Well, yes, we're dating, maybe."

"Oh~ that's really congratulations." Lorna smiled, "He looks like a very different person."

"Yes." Wanda sighed.

"So why don't you look happy? Got into a fight?"

"No." Wanda rested her chin, ". I just feel that he seems to be very busy recently, and we haven't had a chance to talk for a long time. I don't know what he is busy with, but I seem to help Not looking busy."

As soon as the words fell, sparks splashed in the air.The flames cut a magic transmission circle in the space, and Michael walked out quickly, expressionlessly said: "Wanda, come with me. I need to check your body."

Wanda blinked her eyes and looked confused: "What?"
