[Comprehensive] Science and Magic

.

With a forced smile on his face, Dr. Banner was taking a deep breath.

"Look at me, Laura." Laura's head was held in Tony's hands again, and all she could see now was his brown eyes, as strong and sweet as unmelted caramel. "Look at me, are you back to your senses now?"

With a bang, everything fell back into place through the air.Laura murmured, "What did I do?"

"You didn't do anything," Tony said immediately, and he stroked Laura's hair reassuringly before taking one of her hands. "The air in the plane is a bit stuffy, we can't control ourselves, maybe you and Dr. Banner are more sensitive." He said.

"Yeah, they're more sensitive—who the hell is she?" Steve asks, sounding dead serious that he's not going to let the question go lightly this time.

"Agent Johnson is a wizard." Director Fury answered first, "She is our assistance from the magic world."

After getting the answer, Steve didn't speak, but just frowned and looked at the wand in Laura's hand, as if he was thinking about something.

Saul looked around suspiciously, and said sarcastically: "You don't talk about basic trust with each other—why don't you seem to understand at all? Is this the way people in the atrium form a team, pulling a group of people together in a mess? Together?"

"Can we be considered a team?" Dr. Banner also took a breather, and he asked: "What are we together? Me, and this lady wizard who doesn't know where he came from, and even you—we are mixed together." Together it's just creating chaos, like a timed bomb. I shouldn't be here at all."

"You should control your temper," Fury said warily.

Seeing that the situation in the laboratory was about to return to what it was before, doubts and criticisms filled every corner——

"Quiet!" Laura yelled.

Everyone looked at her inexplicably.

She went on: "Listen!"

The room fell into silence, and Tony said, "Listen to what?"

"The scepter," said Laura. "It's whispering...can't you hear me?"

Everyone looked at each other.

The scepter was talking... Laura came closer, no, it wasn't the scepter, it was the gem inlaid on the scepter that was talking... what was it talking about?Pick it up...it's saying "pick it up"...it tells Laura to pick it up...

"Never trust anything that can think for itself, unless you see where it hides its mind. (Note ①)"

Mr. Smulders' teachings struck Laura's mind like lightning.

At the same time, Tony also grabbed Laura: "What do you want to do?"

Laura turned back to look at Tony. "It's playing tricks," she said firmly. "That's it."

Fury stepped forward and asked, "What is it?"

"The jewel on the scepter." Laura understood it all at once.She said quickly, "It all makes sense now. Loki used the scepter to control Clint and Dr. Silvig—Loki can't usually control people's minds, can he, Saul?"

"Yes, but he is eloquent and eloquent, and he is good at tricks..."

Laura interrupted him: "But he doesn't have the ability to control other people's minds. That power comes from the scepter, and where is the scepter? It's here, in this little laboratory." — it's trying to control our minds, it's stoking our emotions, it's even trying to make me—"

"Bang-!"

The Helicarrier was suddenly attacked, the glass walls and floors of the laboratory were blown apart, and Laura was also blown out.

"...Laura, how are you?"

"I'm fine, how about you, Tony?" Laura hurriedly got up from Tony, and Tony hugged her as her meat pad the moment he flew out, and now he was holding his waist with his teeth bared.

"Merlin..." Laura didn't care much, and quickly stretched out her wand to cast a spell on him.Beside them, Chief Fury was already struggling to stand up, and he asked into the intercom: "Hill, what's going on?"

"We've been attacked, Chief. The number three engine has been attacked and damaged. Lose one more engine and we're doomed... Somebody has to go out and fix the engine."

Fury looked down at Tony: "Stark, you heard that."

"Understood." Tony stood up and said to Laura, "You stay here with Cyclops. I'll go find the captain to fix the engine—" He tapped the intercom next to his ear, "Captain, you heard Is it? See you next to engine number three."

"I can go with you—"

"No, you stay here. We are now moving at a high speed of tens of thousands of meters, and the wreckage of the blown-up hull has gone to nowhere. It is impossible to restore it to its original state through your 'repair as before' ——Do you remember the consequences of your last attempt to repair armor?" Tony patted Laura's cheek lightly, "You have to admit that sometimes science is more useful than magic."

Laura followed Fury to the bridge and watched as Fury assigned tasks in an orderly manner.

A disturbing roar from a distance made them all realize that Dr. Banner had transformed.

Laura asked nervously: "Where are the others now? Sol should be able to protect himself when he meets Hulk, Tony and Steve are together, Natasha... Where is Natasha? Does any surveillance show where she is now?"

"Not yet..." an agent said, "Hulk and Thor are in the research and development room on the fourth floor. The monitors on the second and third floors are broken, and Agent Romanov is not seen..."

Agent Hill yelled, "Hulk will tear this place to shreds!"

"Hulk won't die, right? I've read the information, and Dr. Banner has tried many suicide methods but failed to die—I'll help, I can get him outside—"

"Grenade!" Agent Hill yelled suddenly, throwing Laura to the ground.

"what?"

Compared with Fury and Hill, Laura's reaction was still too slow.A few heavily armed mercenaries rushed in from the bridge, and they were jointly killed by Fury and Hill before Laura recovered.

But the attack on the bridge did not stop, this time it was not a grenade, but an arrow with a bomb.

"Clint!" Laura shouted, and Clint, who was controlled by Loki, just gave her an indifferent glance from the upstairs window, and shot another arrow.The arrow was shot at the central controller, and two plugs were quickly separated from the arrow, and inserted into the interface of the central controller.

"Engine number one has lost power too!" a technician yelled. "We're in an uncontrolled descent!"

Another agent reported over the intercom: "Patton is heading to the closed area, boss, what should we do?"

"I'll go," said Laura. "I may not be able to beat him, but at least I can entangle him."

"I'll go too. This is Agent Romanov. I've received the news, so I'll go too." Natasha's voice came from the headset, which gave Laura a lot of confidence.She gestured to Fury and Hill and went straight to the closed area.

She asked as she walked, "Why did you drop the line just now, Nata? How are you doing now?"

"The headset fell off while hiding from the Hulk." Natasha replied, "Listen, Laura. Their goal must be Loki, and I will lure Clint away later, and you go directly to the closed area, Cole Sen should be there waiting for you. I know you have always been slow to react to sudden enemy attacks, which is caused by your living environment-but now you should be prepared. Clint will be dealt with by me, as for the other miscellaneous fish , I believe what Clint and I have taught you is effective. As long as Loki is still in the cell, he cannot escape."

Everything is planned perfectly, it's just that the plans never keep up with the changes.

When Laura rushed to the closed area, the cell that was originally prepared for Hulk, later held Loki, and now houses Thor, had been pressed to the down switch.

"Sol is coming! The cell is coming!!!" Laura yelled at the hole with her wand out, but her coming spell wasn't that powerful.She could still seem to see Sol's excited smile when he saw her coming-but why was she so useless?

The hole was closed, and the cold wind stopped.

"Crack, snap."

It was Loki's applause.

"I always like to watch this kind of resentful expression-how intoxicating." Loki's face was full of malicious smiles, "If you can turn around, don't just regret that you can't save the dead The guy who got down—"

"Phil!" Laura realized that Phil was leaning against the corner covered in blood, "Phil!"

"—You will find that you can continue to regret your incompetence, because you can't save this poor guy sitting in the corner." Loki laughed loudly after speaking, and disappeared from the Helicarrier.

"Phil, Phil, don't close your eyes, Phil, look at me..." Laura cast dozens of healing spells on Phil, but Phil's breathing was still getting weaker and weaker.Still wearing his trademark smile, he said softly, "Don't worry...Laura. He'll never make it...I'm sure you can do it...the Avengers can do it...don't Worry... don't..."

"Phil!" Tears welled up in his eyes, and that strange but familiar tyrannical emotion returned, but this time it no longer wanted to kill others, but wanted to kill himself.Laura felt such pain that she couldn't tell whether the pain was from the heart or the body; the magic in her was rushing through the blood, and it seemed to tear her whole.
