The Lich King of the American comic world

"What kind of trick is this?" Steve was speechless.

Looking at the two people wearing mechas who were fighting loudly, Steve suddenly felt a little fake...

"I said, is it really interesting for the two of you to box in alloy mechs?" Steve said suddenly.

Rhodes was riding Stark and turned to look at Steve upon hearing this.

Stark raised his right hand, facing Rhode's chest with his palm, and replied, "You're right."

With an energy cannon, Rhodes was pushed out with great force, crashed through the wall and fell into another room.

Rhodes roared angrily, turned on his horsepower, rushed over again, and rode on Stark again, beating Stark with a "thump, thud, thud".

Chapter 67 Howard's Legacy

Rhodes rushed from another room and wrestled with Stark again, but this time the two didn't fight for too long.

Rhodes was hit by another energy cannon. Flames spewed out from his hands and feet, and he was suspended in mid-air after somersaults.

He said to Stark: "Tony, I misunderstood you, you don't deserve to wear this mech! Iron Man, I will be in charge from now on!"

After finishing speaking, Rhode smashed the glass and flew away.

Steve came to the bar and looked at Stark who was lying on the ground staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Stee squatted beside Stark, opened Stark's mask, and asked, "There are only two of us here now, tell me buddy, what's wrong with you?"

"Stee..." Stark's eyes turned slightly red, but he drank a lot of wine, so Stee didn't think about other aspects.

But soon, Stark's gaze became foolish again.

"Dude, remember, I said I would invest in your security company! Tell me, where do you want an office building, or I'll buy you a piece of land, and we design and build it ourselves?

I think this idea is good, and I have already thought of the name of the building, how about calling it the Seventh Building? "

Steve looked at the eloquent Stark, who became more and more excited...

He suddenly grabbed Stark's shoulders and turned Stark's head the other way.

At this point, Stark was completely quiet.

Steve could clearly see that there were several dark lines on Stark's neck.

"Tony, tell me, what's going on?" Steve let go of Stark's neck and asked softly.

Stark finally couldn't hold back anymore.

The smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by deep helplessness and sadness.

"Palladium poisoning, that thing on my chest. It saved my life, but it's slowly killing me."

"Have you seen Ethan?"

"After reading it, we are all at a loss."

Stee stretched out his right hand, bent his index finger and tapped Stark's chest, and said, "Even if it's not poisoned, its radiation will shorten your lifespan considerably.

You say you, why bother?Doesn't the car battery smell good? "

"It's business!" Stark said dissatisfiedly, but after Stee's gag, he finally felt better.

Stark sat up, leaning against the wall, looked at Steve and said, "Dude, you saved me twice, can you save me again?"

Steve rubbed his bare chin, thought for a while and replied: "If I want to save you now, I have to beat you to death first, and then resurrect you."

Stark's hair stood on end, and he tentatively asked, "Isn't it like the...thing in the cave?"

"emmm... better than them, at least there is still a layer of skin covering the bones, if you are lucky, you may even have hair!"

"FK YO! I'd rather die than become that kind of thing." Stark raised a middle finger at Steve.

Steve frowned, tried to recall the plot, and muttered, "How did Stark solve the palladium poisoning in the end? It seems that he invented a new clean energy source."

"What did you say? New clean energy?" Stark heard the last point in Steve's words and said, "You think it's so easy to find?"

Steve remembered that Stark seemed to have discovered the clue while sorting through the things his father had left him.

"Tony, have you seen what your father left you?"

"What? I don't know. He never cared about me. Why should I look at his stuff? The happiest moment for him was when he sent me to boarding school." Stark actually made a fuss like a child got angry.

Stee kicked Stark on the butt of the mecha, and growled, "You...know...a... fart!

Hurry up and follow me to find what your father left you.Hiss...it hurts..."

Stark didn't know what kind of madness was going on with Stee, but he couldn't resist Stee, so he had to stand up and walk outside.

"Slap!" Steve slapped himself.

Stark looked at Steve suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"I remembered, what your father left you should still be in S.H.I.E.L.D.!"

"How did you know?"

"Your uncle told me."

"My uncle? Where did I get my uncle from?"

Stee didn't answer, and limped towards the gate without looking back. Stark was bewildered and had to follow Stee to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Stark drove his own supercar and drove Steve to the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The security guard at the door blocked the two of them, and refused to let them go up.

Steve said impatiently to the security guard: "Nick Fury called me, call him if you don't believe me."

"Director? Please wait a moment."

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected.

When the security guard connected to Nick Fury's office phone, Stee suddenly said into the microphone: "Furry! This is Stee, and I brought Tony Stark!"

After two seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, Nick Fury's deep voice came: "Bring them here."

After opening the office door, Steve saw that Fury was resting his arms on the desk, crossing his fingers and staring at them with his head tilted.

"If you don't explain why you bother me during my meetings with ambassadors, I'll lock you both up until you agree to join S.H.I.E.L.D.!"

Stark kept looking at Steve, signaling to Nick Fury that he was the mastermind.

Stella pulled a chair and sat at the desk. The old god said to Fury: "Tony's father, Howard Stark, is one of the founders of your S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"Watt?" Stark looked at Steve with a question mark on his face, and then looked at Fury, seeking their explanation.

"Yes or No" Stee stared into Fury's one eye, and asked again.

Fury got on the chair and replied, "Yes, are you here to bring Stark to confess his relatives?"

"Did Tony's father leave something with you? Something for Tony."

With a scrutinizing gaze, Fury shot Steve up and down, and asked, "How did you know that?"

"From his uncle. Cut the crap, is there anything like that?"

"Uncle? How could he tell you these things?" Fury immediately thought of that person.

Stark's eyes widened, "Why do you all know that I have an uncle, but I don't?"

"I originally planned to give you that box in two days. Since you came to ask for it in advance, take it away quickly." Fury said to Stark.

"It's that easy?" Steve wondered.

Fury turned his head slightly, stared at Steve with one eye, and said, "Then what else do you want? Do you still want to kick my ass?"

"Uh...haha, no, no, absolutely no such idea."

"The box will be sent to Stark's villa. Also, take it to the door after you go out, thank you."

As Fury said, he made a gesture of please, indicating that they can go away.

Chapter 68 Ritual in progress

Steve and Stark returned to the villa by the sea, but the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. sent the box over first.

Stark stared blankly at the words "Howard Stark Property" printed on the silver safe, "It's really there".

Steve walked to the box, twisted the lock, and opened the box.

"Hey, hey, hey! This is our family's property!" Seeing this, Stark kicked Steve away, and occupied the box by himself.

Stark closed the box, carried it and walked towards the lower floor of the villa.

"Tony!" Stee suddenly called out to Stark, and Stark turned to look at him with the box in his hand.

Steve suddenly smiled and said, "Don't forget, you said you wanted to invest in my security company, and now I agree. When you find a solution to your own problems, don't forget about our Seventh Building!"

"It should have been like this a long time ago! Don't you feel bored in a place like Hell's Kitchen?" Stark said, turned and left.

Let him solve Tony Stark's problem by himself. Steve's top priority is to complete Nelson's transformation ceremony.

It was almost dark when we got back to Hell's Kitchen.

Stee was going to take the material to the cemetery, right next to Nelson's grave for the transformation ceremony.

Steve checked the ritual materials and the magic circle pattern over and over again, making sure it was successful, because once the transformation failed, Nelson's soul would be dissipated due to the impact, and there would be no next time.

"Black horn... old heel... emm... where's the phylactery?" Steve crossed his arms and thought.

"Oh, here is a box made of special magic-guiding materials, but what the hell are these patterns?" Steve touched the densely packed inscriptions on the box, and muttered, "But it looks really suitable for making a phylactery."

In the dead of night, Steve took his suitcase and set off for the cemetery.

When he came to the cemetery, in order to ensure that no one broke in, Steve specially arranged for some banshees to patrol the periphery.

Ordinary people cannot see ghosts like banshees, but they can use their sounds and senses to frighten humans.

And their signature skill: Possession, can directly control the opponent's body by sacrificing themselves.

The magic circle was drawn with paint prepared with special materials, and Steve placed the materials in the corresponding positions one by one.

Steve took out Frostmourne and began to gather his own shadow power.

Feeling that his energy was almost condensed, Steve held Frostmourne upside down with both hands, and stabbed into the center of the magic circle.

The sky changed at this moment.

Countless dark clouds gathered directly above the magic circle, and under the traction of mana, they slowly formed a vortex.

Regardless of the huge impact brought by the magic circle, Steve began to frantically input his shadow power into the magic circle.

However, Steve still underestimated the consumption of the magic circle.

The power of shadow in his body was sucked dry after only 10 seconds!

In order not to be sucked dry, Stey began to control Frostmourne and burn its reserved soul.

"A layer...half of it... Frostmourne burned all souls except for the souls of Big Maskinos and Nelson."

But the magic circle is still like a bottomless pit, sucking in the power of Steve's shadow...

"Damn it, the information says that it doesn't need so much energy? Now it's consumed almost twice, and it won't work if it continues like this."

Steve's heart skipped a beat, and he began to burn the soul of Big Maskinos.

The soul of Da Maskinos is much more powerful than other souls. In terms of magnitude, his soul can be worth 1000 ordinary vampire souls.

After all, he is an immortal, and his ability is still strengthened in terms of intelligence and spirit.

With the continuous infusion of the power of shadow, the sky anomaly caused by the magic circle became more and more obvious.

In addition to the shape of the swirl in the clouds, there are even lightning and thunder.

Many people have found this anomaly, including S.H.I.E.L.D.

The banshee has spotted some curious ordinary people approaching here, but they are all scared away by them.

But as police cars and special services vehicles approach, Steve knows he's running out of time.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Steve no longer cared about his own endurance, and began to input the power of shadow into the magic circle with all his strength.

Due to the excessive energy flow through the body in an instant, blood began to ooze from Steve's eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.

The siren of the police car came from afar, and Steve once again increased his output.
