The Lich King of the American comic world

The faded dress did look shabby, but she still refused: "No.

We managed to make some money, and it was the money you made by risking your life.

I don't want to waste it easily. "

"No, no, no, you have to believe in me and my strength. Our company will definitely become bigger and stronger. This amount of money is nothing at all."

Anna looked at Steve who had started to imagine YY mode, and turned helplessly to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk."

"Excuse me, is this the SEVEN company?" A middle-aged man with a friendly face and slightly bald head asked at the door.

Anna, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the sound from the door, took off her apron and went to the door, saying:

"Yes, sir. We are SEVEN security company, how can we help you?"

The middle-aged man took a look at Anna, straightened his already neat suit and said, "Hello, beautiful lady. I have something I want to talk to Steve about, is it convenient?"

Steve, who was reading a newspaper on the sofa, overheard their conversation.

He got up and came to the door, motioning for Anna to go back and continue preparing their dinner.

Steve showed a professional smirk, and said to the middle-aged man at the door: "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"My name is Coulson. Philip, J. Coulson belongs to S.H.I.E.L.D. We know that you have some special abilities, and we hope to have a sincere and pleasant communication with you."

Steve was not surprised at all. After all, he often saw reports on characters such as Tony, Stark, Batman, etc. in various newspapers and news, which made him already know that he was in an amazing world.

For the contact with S.H.I.E.L.D., he was already a little bit prepared.

"Okay, come in. Anyway, there should be no customers at this time." After speaking, Steve turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

Coulson walked in while looking at the small living room.

Although the house is old, it is tidy.

On the yellow wall on the right hand side is a company name printed out on A4 paper, and there are business undertakings below it.

Coulson took a rough look and found something: security guards, thugs, people looking for things and so on.

He joked with a smile: "Your business is quite extensive, can you do it alone?"

Coulson sat on the old sofa, and Steve turned around and poured a cup of hot water to him, then replied: "It's okay, although there is not much business now, but according to my estimation, in another three months I may Enrollment must be expanded."

"Then I will congratulate you in advance."

"Thank you. Let's get down to business."

Coulson took out a copy and a few blurry photos from his handbag, and after placing the photos in front of Steve, he said:

"We have some footage of you using your abilities.

emmm... You know, things like skeletons and zombies always scare people and make you look different. "

Steve leaned back on the sofa and said, "So, what do you mean? Arrest me? Or imprison me?"

Coulson waved his hands and said, "No, no, buddy! You misunderstood.

I mean, by filling out this form, you will be brought to the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D., and as long as you obey the law, you will be protected by us. "

Steve picked up the form and glanced at it, then put it on the table.

"Is this spying on you? That's far from being an invitation to Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, man!"

"Oh? Is Professor Charles also interested in you? Then what do you think?"

Steve seemed a little impatient, he stood up and said to Coulson, "Sorry, I don't like being watched, let alone being controlled.

Whether it is a school or S.H.I.E.L.D., it is essentially surveillance and exploitation.I just want to make some money quietly and take Anna. "

"Kunling clang..." There was a clash of pots and pans and Anna's suppressed exclamation from the kitchen.

"But you don't even have a legal identity, don't you think about your future, your children's future? Or, are you up for sale?"

"Ah... so troublesome..." Steve scratched his bangs in annoyance.

"Sign it, and none of these troubles will be trouble."

Coulson is like a fear demon who grasps the weakness of people's hearts and seduces the opponent step by step, constantly tempting Steve.

Chapter 3 Troubled Constantine

Looking at another bound contract that Coulson handed over.

Steve gave Coulson a strange look and said, "But I think you, SHIELD, are the real trouble."

Just kidding, even people like Steve who have only watched some Avengers and Iron Man movies know a little bit about what the SHIELD will look like in the future.

Join S.H.I.E.L.D.?

I might as well join Professor Charles' school, at least it's safer to join them, and there won't be a former director of Hydra.

As for the Sentinels that the mutants encounter much later, isn't that too early.

After looking at the agency name printed on the cover of the contract, Steve said, "The Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistic Support Agency? It's really hard to remember the official name of your SHIELD."

Coulson smiled slightly when he heard the words: "How is it? We welcome talented people like you to join us and fight for the safety and peace of the world."

Coulson's words, Steve can still believe a little bit, but the current director and former director of S.H.I.E.L.D....

Steve could only complain in his heart: "I believe you ghosts!"

So Steve replied to Coulson: "Compared to an agent organization like S.H.I.E.L.D., I trust the professor's school more."

Coulson was not angry when he heard the words, but instead grinned and said, "Actually, I'm curious, how did you get involved with the professor's school?

As far as I know, they rarely actively recruit adults except teachers.

On the contrary, Magneto, no matter what kind of mutants, they will absorb them. "

"There was a mission before, to find a missing girl, she was a mutant."

"I see."

"Sorry, I don't intend to work for anyone or any organization, and I don't want to be supervised. I like freedom."

Coulson showed a regretful expression and said: "I am actually a moderate. If you reject my proposal, then the radicals will have an excuse, and they are likely to take more drastic measures against you."

Steve also showed a regretful expression, and said, "Then they may have frequent nightmares.

Since you don't have a business need, let's stop here for today. "

Coulson didn't show any ugly expression, but stood up gracefully and said goodbye.

After Coulson left, Stee conveniently threw the forms, contracts and photos that Coulson had left on the coffee table into the trash can.

At this moment, Anna walked up to Steve with a blushing face, holding a frying pan, and said eagerly, "That...this...you...I..."

Steve looked at Anna with question marks on his face, touched her forehead and asked, "What's wrong? Have you got a fever? You can't even speak clearly."

"No... no... I just... want to ask, is what you said just now true?"

"Oh, you mean the thing about me telling Coulson that I want to marry you, right?"

Anna blushed even more, and nodded shyly to express her affirmation.

Seeing this, Steve picked up the newspaper he had read before, and pretended to be casual and said, "em...I just said I was fooling him, don't take it to heart."

Anna's face immediately turned from blushing to livid, and she hit Steve on the head with one stroke.

Fortunately, she still knows how to control her strength, otherwise this blow would have knocked Steve out with a concussion.

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts! You violent woman! You are finished! No one dares to take you except me!" Steve pretended to be in pain, and then began to yell.

"Let you lie to me, let you play me! Knock you to death!"

Knowing that he really annoyed Anna this time, Steve grabbed Anna's frying pan first, and then Anna's other hand.

"Okay, in fact, I really have this plan, but I don't know if you want to?"

"What? What's the plan?" Anna asked subconsciously before turning the corner.

"Ah!!!" After she realized it, she screamed and ran into the kitchen.

But after entering the kitchen, she stretched out half of her body and said, "I am willing! You said it, only you dare to want me, and you must keep your word!"

Steve just pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, and continued to read his newspaper without answering.

The peaceful time is always fast, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Today, as usual, Steve was about to open the door to welcome guests at 9 o'clock in the morning.

But the moment he opened the door, the door was pushed open very roughly.

Had it not been for Stee's quick reaction to take a step back, his nose might have suffered.

Steve was a little annoyed, and thought to himself: "The gang boss in Hell's Kitchen has to call me little brother when he sees me, who the hell is so impolite?"

When he saw the person in front of him clearly, the person in front of him was staring at him blankly.

Seeing Stee looking into his eyes, the man who pushed the door suddenly shouted happily: "Ah! God bless, I finally found you, Stee!"

However, Steve stared at a pair of dead fish eyes that hadn't woken up, and said, "Goodbye."

Then I wanted to close the door and keep the yelling person out.

"Hey! Hey! Come on, man. We're here to hire you. We're here to give you business!"

"Konstantin, your business has nothing to do with me!"

Constantine desperately pushed against the door, preventing Stee from closing it, while Stee pushed the door desperately, trying to push the hell detective out of the door.

Hearing Steve's reply, Konstantin was not annoyed but pleased. He suddenly raised his voice, and even his voice became sharp: "You know what's going on around me, right? You've already seen my troubles, haven't you? !"

"Get out, I won't take your business, it's too troublesome."

"$30!" Constantine yelled.

Following the quotation, someone opened the door of the apartment on the same floor and looked here curiously.

"Trouble, don't answer." Steve was unmoved, and even his tone didn't change.

"50!" This time, even the apartments on the upper and lower floors craned their necks to look here.

"Get out! I'm not such a person."

"100 million!" Someone has already walked towards SEVEN from the stairs, and they are holding guns in their hands...

Suddenly, Constantine felt the force from the door loosen, making him almost lose his balance and throw himself on Stee.

With one hand on Constantine's head, Steve said to him, "SEVEN is here to serve you wholeheartedly, please come in."

"FK, you are taking advantage of the fire!"

Constantine walked into the house while cursing.

Steve walked out of the door, surrounded by the undead aura that ordinary people couldn't see, and glanced at the person slowly approaching the door without any emotion in his eyes.

People who were dizzy from the stimulation of huge amounts of money suddenly woke up at this moment.

Feeling the inexplicably lower temperature of several degrees around them, they dispersed in a panic.

not to go?Those people who came to trouble Steve and Anna in the past, have you seen them again?

That's the dangerous person that all the gangsters in Hell's Kitchen agree to!

Back in the room, Steve still hesitated. His current strength was too weak, and he didn't want to fall into crisis prematurely.

but now,

My biggest advantage is being familiar with the plot,

If you don't take advantage of the fact that the plot has not yet changed to gain more benefits and strengthen yourself,

After that, it is likely to be taken advantage of in increasingly outrageous crises and events

Making money is one purpose, and finding ways to enhance strength is the second purpose.

The potential of the power of shadow is almost limitless, but under the premise of developing it, the soul must not be distorted by it, and the self will not be swallowed up.

Without a teacher, without a guide, it is really difficult for Steve to master or even control the power of shadow.

This is also the reason why he has used summons more for a long time.

In the end, after weighing the pros and cons, Steve still felt that he could not quit the group or stop,
