[Comprehensive] Science and Magic

Even God's Domain is the same.

Odin also took this into consideration.He is determined to arrange for Laura and Thor to go to Earth to retrieve Loki's scepter, which is the soul gem.Frigga believes that Laura may be more conducive to controlling her abilities when she is with her human friends.

But Laura felt that they probably had more than that in their minds—they were always afraid that they would become their "self" who ignored life.Being in a hostile environment for a long time is not good for protecting her existing personality.

In order to cause more panic, Laura chose to go to Earth with Thor through Heimdall's Rainbow Bridge instead of using the ability of the space gem.Among them, Laura was a little relieved that Heimdall showed her rare kindness.He is the gatekeeper of Asgard, and he is most concerned about the safety of Asgard; Laura's protection of Asgard has won his respect.

"Good luck."

Before Laura was teleported away by the Rainbow Bridge, she heard Heimdall say this.

Near nostalgia timid.

Before Laura landed on the roof of the already renovated Stark Tower with Sol, she subconsciously made herself invisible.

Sol, who suddenly appeared, was immediately monitored by Jarvis-the security system of Stark Tower was more thorough than before.Tony appeared on the top floor within 2 minutes, followed by Bruce Banner, panting and taking a deep breath.

"Sol!" Tony's eyes were fixed on Sol, as if he wanted to see him out: "Where's Laura?"

Laura looked at him bewilderedly.His appearance didn't seem to have changed, his hair was neatly combed, and his mustache was neatly trimmed.The fundus of the eyes is a little dark, and I must have stayed up all night doing research; but there is no red blood in the eye sockets, so I didn't stay up all night.

It was great that Tony took care of himself so well.

"Hi Tony. Uh, Laura..." Saul rubbed his head awkwardly. "She..."

Tony said anxiously: "What happened to Laura? Don't say you didn't take her away. The circle of totems when she disappeared was the sign of the opening of the Rainbow Bridge."

The look on Tony's face was more anxious than his tone.His eyes looked at Thor full of hope, hiding a trace of imperceptible panic and vulnerability.Laura suddenly realized that Tony might have used this belief to support himself all the time—he made himself believe that she was not dead, but was taken away by the people of God's Realm.

He didn't deserve to be treated like this.It's because I'm too cowardly.

"Here I am," said Laura softly.With her words, her body gradually appeared in the air.She walked towards him step by step, getting closer, and asked in a calm tone as if this was just an ordinary day: "I'm late and can't have breakfast with you. If you don't mind—— "

Laura was dragged into Tony's arms.

"—we can have dinner together," he said.

The corners of Laura's mouth could not help but rise, and tears rolled down at the same time.She hugged Tony tightly, buried her head on his shoulder, and her nostrils were filled with the unique smell of Tony.That smell made Laura feel at ease. She finally stayed in Tony's arms for real. It was not a dream, nor an illusion, but reality.

I don't know how long the embrace lasted, but Laura heard Dr. Banner stammering, "Hi. Maybe, um, we can go in, uh..." He adjusted his glasses in embarrassment, then pointed to the glass door behind him .

Saul was beating his hammer and standing aside pretending to look up at the sky.

"Ah, yes," Tony finally let go of Laura, raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her cheeks, and said with a relaxed expression, "Let's not stand outside stupidly. Go in, there are a lot of things to talk about." He pulled Laura closer to the Stark Tower, holding Laura's hand tightly all the time.

They sat down on the sofa, and Tony handed Sol a glass of wine and asked, "You didn't come back this time just to bring Laura back, did you? Wait, what is the relationship between Laura and Asgard, isn't it?" Is she really the daughter of the reindeer kid?!"

"She is my mother's sister's daughter," Saul replied.He took a sip from the wine glass and continued: "Our return this time does have something to do with Loki - we want to take away the scepter that Loki left on Earth. I remember that thing was taken away by S.H.I.E.L.D. Is it?"

Tony froze for a moment.

Laura immediately understood: "The scepter...was taken by Hydra, right?"

Thor asked, "What is Hydra?"

"It was an evil organization that evolved from a scientific research institution affiliated to Nazi Germany during World War II. It did not disappear with the victory of the war, but re-developed under the tree of S.H.I.E.L.D. It's just this Back, they are much more hidden. If it hadn't happened..." Tony frowned and didn't continue.He turned and said, "We've been dealing with this for the past eight months. Hydra has penetrated deeper than we thought. From the spy agencies to the government and even the wizarding world There are their shadows."

Laura knew what he was talking about.

"Heimdall told me that I devoured the entire city." Laura's throat tightened, and she looked at Tony, "Is this true? I...I swallowed those people..."

Tony took her hand. "Don't think about it. You must have been stimulated at that time. You just need to know that you still remember to protect us in that situation. Me, the captain, and your magic friend are all fine."

Laura sensitively grasped the loopholes in Tony's language.

"What do you mean by 'magic friends' . . . where are Mr. and Mrs. Smulders?"

Tony didn't speak.Laura looked for help to another person in the room who might have the answer, but Dr. Banner turned away to avoid her eyes.

"Why don't you talk?" Laura's heart was pounding. "It's impossible. Heimdall said my friends survived. That's impossible."

Saul also said: "Heimdall can't be wrong."

"He was right." Tony took a deep breath, and finally said, "It's complicated...you did bring Mrs. Smulders back, but...but she's dead."

"What do you mean 'but she's dead'?" Laura had a faint premonition in her heart. This is the law of nature that Frigg said——

"The Kedra has taken her soul, but you saved her body. Her body survived, like a walking dead. Her husband spent a long time trying to get her soul back, well Let her come back to life—but all ended in failure. He couldn't accept that the person he loved lived like a puppet that lost his soul all his life. He was clearly in front of his eyes, but he would never be able to touch it... Mr. Smulders was driven mad. He took his own life and his wife's with his own hands."

Chapter 57

Never abuse these abilities, because you never know what the cost will be.

But... But at that time, I didn't get any Infinity Stones, and...

"I don't believe it." Laura stiffened her neck, desperately suppressing the tears in her eyes, and argued, "Where is Phil Coulson? Didn't he survive? Zola didn't say that he..."

Laura's nose was sore that she could hardly breathe.She opened her mouth and took a sharp breath before continuing, "Zola didn't say that he became... a walking dead."

"Phil's situation is different." Tony looked at her heartbroken, leaned over and put his arm around her shoulder.She is shaking.Tony tried to pull her into his arms, but Laura pushed her away.Tears welled in her eyes, and Laura was still struggling.She looked at Tony tearfully and asked, "What's the difference?"

Tony's grip on her shoulder tightened.

"We believe... when you rescued Phil, he was only seriously injured and dying, not dead. Your magic healed his fatal wounds and brought him back from death. But Smulders Madame... Among her is..."

"Death curse."

Laura said the answer blankly, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.Tony hugged her again, and this time she didn't push away.

It all makes sense.Death Curse, Avada Kedavra - acts directly on the soul.Her magic brought Ellie's body back to life, but Ellie's soul went to another world as early as the moment the green light hit her.

"It's not your fault." Tony rubbed the back of her head and said softly, "You have tried your best. Hydra has infiltrated the upper echelon of S.H.I.E.L.D., Secretary Alexander Pierce is one of them, Participated in planning that fake rescue operation. At that time, we were caught off guard and fell into the trap..."

Laura jerked to her feet, hatred gathering in her chest.She asked coldly, "Where is Paltrow now?"

"If you're asking that Ministry of Magic official, William Paltrow... he's now with that city forever."

Seeing Laura looking at him puzzled, Tony directed Jarvis to play the projection above the coffee table.Dr. Banner tilted his body uncomfortably and shrank into a corner; Saul made a very interested pose.

"As your boyfriend, I don't want you to see this at all. But just now I found out that I did something wrong... We are the Avengers, and you are also one of us. It is useless to escape blindly."

The living room lights dimmed and images appeared on the projection.It was rolling black land, and the blue sky looked very gloomy against the reflection of the earth.so thick and pure
