[Comprehensive Anglo-American] The First Mutant

When Mark, who was wrapped up like an Arab woman, first walked into the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D., the staff who came and went cast more or less curious glances at him.Not only is his attire eye-catching, but walking among the Pennicks and his party made the staff even more curious.

S.H.I.E.L.D. has recently set up a secret office, and only a few people know exactly what it does. The people from Phoenix who came to report yesterday are from that department.It seems that this short man in black robe is too?

After working in S.H.I.E.L.D. for a long time, the staff already knew that many things don't require too much curiosity.Without waiting for Carter's warning, the staff went to work on their own.

Of course, there are exceptions. When a black-haired young man saw Carter, his eyes lit up and he greeted them. With a sunny smile, he introduced himself: "Hi Lieutenant Colonel Carter, I am Obadiah Stanislav, Howard's friend."

Carter shook hands with him, and after introducing each other, he said to Phoenix and others: "Mr. Stanislav is Mr. Stark's partner, and we are negotiating the cooperation between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Stark Industries."

Phoenix smiled at Carter's kindness, and thoughtfully said: "Mr. Stark mentioned how to get to the Ministry of Science and Technology yesterday, why don't we go there first?"

"Okay, if you have any questions, you can contact me," Katwin said, "then we will see you later."

"Ok."

Carter and Staniswalked to another elevator. Phoenix had just stepped out and called Mark back: "Honey, we're leaving."

"Oh." Mark followed and took Phoenix's hand, and he couldn't help asking Jarvis subconsciously, 【It feels a little weird. 】

【Your body is normal, and there is no danger at present, young master. 】

Phoenix vaguely sensed Mark's doubts, held Mark's steel hand and said, "Mr. Stark has the same surname as your adoptive father, Mark."

The young boy was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said: "So that's how it is."

They didn't go far and met Hank again. The young researcher was a little restrained in the eyes of everyone, and he actually waited for a while.Charles has never found time to chat with him alone, and they can all feel that because of his status as a mutant, this young man is always a little subconsciously timid towards "ordinary people"-the problem is, they are the same kind, Hank is completely There's no need to be so nervous.

"They all call me Little Hank, because there is a senior in the Science and Technology Department who is also called Hank..." Look at him, he doesn't dare to look into the girl's eyes when talking to Rui Wen.

Charles, who usually doesn't read everyone's minds in detail, had no idea that Hank's shyness might be due to something else.

Seeing Phoenix pulling Mark and Zero into a small world of their own, Charles took on the important task of taking care of others they had forgotten, such as new partners: "Eric with us or go to visit S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"I'm more interested in ancient Egyptian things." The handsome black-haired mutant naturally had a cold temperament, and his tone was light. "The thing that can restrain superpowers is a threat to us."

"There are some," Charles reassured, "but the outflow should not be large, otherwise Lieutenant Colonel Carter wouldn't be so surprised."

"Hopefully," said Eric, never one of optimism, "a threat is a threat, Charles."

To Eric, the threat shouldn't exist.

In the end, it was Charles who fell behind, thinking about his teammates, Phoenix?He is strong, so strong that he is rarely afraid.Ruiwen, being concealed by him, didn't know many things.Zero, when Phoenix is ​​around, he can hardly perceive his own thoughts, it is all Phoenix Phoenix Phoenix Phoenix.And finally Eric, if he can, Charles thought, he will not hesitate to eradicate any threat, no matter what scientific research you do, think twice.

They're all headaches...

"Charles, the elevator is almost here." Phoenix called him.

"coming."

Facing the gazes of several people, Charles smiled helplessly and followed quickly.

S.H.I.E.L.D. has only preserved one piece of ancient Egypt so far, and in fact, this black box will soon be transferred.As a rare "trophy", it will make a long-distance trip between several professional research institutes in the United Kingdom and the United States, rather than staying in a less professional place like S.H.I.E.L.D.

Carter arranged a separate safe room for it for the insurance, and the degree of security is second only to the treasure of Odin salvaged by Howard.

Not everyone is qualified to go in and see what's going on. Fortunately, Carter gave the mutant office very high authority, and Phoenix and the others can all go in.

Brightly lit white room, black but unreflective unknown substance.It is engraved with mysterious runes and has strange functions that humans know little about. People subconsciously dare not underestimate it.

There are not many instruments around, because it will be transferred soon, SHIELD did not apply for professional instruments-they do not have experts in ancient Egypt here.

Although separated by bulletproof glass, everyone can still see the whole picture of the black box.Birds of different shapes, waves of different lengths, irregular rectangles, fusiforms like boats and funnels... The runes wrapped around the black box are esoteric and obscure. These are not modern ancient Egyptian characters. Rather, it is an ancient text that is circulated between the nobles and the temple, and the symbolic meaning is higher than the practical meaning.

Miss Evelyn Carnahan is proficient in ancient Egyptian modern and ancient texts, and her mother is from the kingdom of Wakanda.This gentle and kind lady was never stingy with sharing, and when she met a gentle and studious neighbor, she taught him carefully.Phoenix, who directly received this part of Charles's memory, was different. He had an extraordinary learning talent, but he stopped learning after learning it once and found that he didn't like it.At this time, it was still difficult for him to directly translate the above text. Seeing his silence, Charles knew that he was not sure.

So opportunism is sometimes really bad.Phoenix noticed Charles' playful expression, hugged Mark who was almost sullen because he was not tall enough to see the black box just now, and ordered people with a natural expression: "Charles, can you translate?"

In front of children, the dignity of parents must always be maintained.Charles smiled secretly, pointed to the circle of words surrounding the phoenix on the black box and said, "Here is the Temple of the Sun."

"Surrounded by hymns to the sun god...Dawn breaks, the horizon is beautiful. Oh! Vigorous La, the beginning of life..." Charles' voice is beautiful, Phoenix has always known it.

Slowly he read out the beautiful hymns, and when he spoke seriously, he took on a slightly hoarse English accent, which sounded gentle and graceful.If sound and words can also be visualized, they must become flawless satin, dazzling gemstones, and his clothes. He is like a pious and holy priest in the temple. No god can bear to criticize him. He should be darling.

Phoenix likes to listen to Charles read, even if he is as restless as Eric and Mark, he can't help but calm down.

"...Although you are high above, it will always be daylight wherever you walk," Charles lowered his eyebrows, carefully discerning the words on the black box, which are personal names, "then said, God's legacy is bestowed upon the brave Asazo..."

Charles, who communicated with Phoenix through memory, reacted almost immediately: "Isn't Azazor the mutant who can teleport?"

"Ah...ah? That's right," Phoenix, who was obsessed with beauty, frowned belatedly, "Is he an ancient Egyptian?"

"You didn't perceive him?" Charles knew Phoenix too well. He seemed careless, but he was actually very cautious.As long as he feels that he doesn't trust or threatens him, he will search the other person's memory. Howard is like this, and so is Carter. Charles can't control his habit.

"The black crystal on the ship will disturb me, and there is not enough time. When I controlled him, I didn't see the memory of ancient Egypt..." Phoenix recalled it carefully, and said uncertainly, "That's not quite right, I seem to... just don't see too many memories of him."

When Phoenix reads other people's memories, he will never see if there is enough time, only energy will limit him.

There are three people who have memory problems or have had problems around him, and Charles subconsciously thought: "Could he also lose his memory...?"

"If it wasn't for amnesia, it would be terrible." Phoenix murmured.

The relic of the gods should be the black crystal, which sounds like it's not something ordinary people can get.But this is a way, there was the first time, who knows if there is a second time?If Asazo had a close relationship with ancient Egypt, would there be more ancient Egyptian things in his place?

What's more, what if the forces of ancient Egypt harbored malice towards them?

And most of them, including S.H.I.E.L.D., know little about ancient Egypt.Just a Sombra can cause them trouble, if it's anything else...

"It can isolate the power of Sombra, and there should be something to restrain it," Charles asked Phoenix in a low voice, "When does S.H.I.E.L.D. plan to hand it over?"

"Tomorrow afternoon." Phoenix said the information he "probing" from Carter's memory.

Time was tight, Ling asked: "Shall I go to Howard to apply for an instrument?"

Mark's eyes flashed, and he pulled Phoenix's skirt.

"what happened, Babe?"

The electronic eye belonging to Jarvis was also flickering, but both it and Tony took a step back, allowing Mark to speak by himself, and said to Phoenix: "Jarvis has a way, we don't need to tell others."

Listening attentively to the adults all the time, he can be regarded as a young boy who has found an opportunity to brush his existence.

He thought he wouldn't know if he didn't talk about Phoenix. Turning on Jarvis had already consumed a lot of energy, and now the absorption was slightly greater than the expenditure, so there was no room left to use Jarvis's other functions.Phoenix almost refused directly, but was held back by Charles.

"It's a good idea, Mark," the young man's gentle voice made the refusal very tactful, "but it's not good for your health, let's go apply for the equipment and try it? If it doesn't work, can I ask you for help?"

The little robot's cheeks puffed up, feeling that he was being scorned, he tugged on Phoenix's lapel and whispered: "You obviously hope to know its secrets before ordinary people, but if you apply to others, you will be exposed."

"Actually, it's okay. Howard is still credible. We also need allies." Phoenix tried to comfort him.

Mark didn't want to confront Phoenix, so he had to ask for foreign aid: [Jarvis! 】

It's hard for him to find an opportunity, and he has to let his father know that he is very capable, so that Phoenix can take him everywhere!He doesn't want to be treated as a useless kid, and he doesn't want to stay at home and wait for him, he just wants to follow his father!

Jarvis listened to Mark's nagging back and forth, and his voice was still not in a hurry: "The database has archives, and the structural decomposition can be realized, sir. It's just that the specific analysis will take more time."

The code word "database" refers to Tony, indicating that Tony is proposing to them through Jarvis.

Phoenix can probably sense their energy usage, so it's not reassuring.He threatened Mark, who seemed to deal better: "In this way, you can only rest at home in the afternoon, and you can't go to the museum."

"Then dad, will you still tell me stories about ancient Egypt?" Mark's basic goal is to let Phoenix accompany him, and it doesn't make any difference to him whether he goes to the museum or stays at home.

Occasionally, Phoenix needs to use telepathy to see what this little monster is thinking. His heart softens, and he rubs Mark's metal head: "Yes, baby."

Kid who pushes forward: "Then let's go to the museum next time."

Stupid parent Phoenix: "Okay, okay."

The author has something to say: Why is Asazo, because Emma summoned him, when he appeared in front of Xiao, he looked a bit dazed=. =

I find that the English name translated from Chinese is sometimes really weird, but I don’t really like to use English. After all, English is useless. If one or two letters are wrong, it feels awkward, so I just use Chinese.
