I used to believe in science

Bruce didn't know why the situation had become the way it was.

They built a machine, hoping to catch the Phoenix Force and return it back to space with the acceleration of the impact. If they succeed, they will not only have more preparation time, but also can perfect this plan to make it a A device to permanently isolate the Phoenix Force.

They have gone through a series of calculations, and the calculation process has almost gone through all the smartest people in the world, Banner, Pym, Black Panther, Mister Fantastic, Tony and himself.

And the machine they built combines the technologies of Apocalypse, Krypton, Mars and OA.

In the end, to be more on the safe side, Green Lantern, Thor, Ms. Marvel and even several masters in the magic world waited on the farther waterway to intercept and weaken the power of Phoenix.

But the phoenix was faster as it got closer to the earth. It passed through the energy fields of surprise and green light, ignored the power of Asgard, and even devoured the magic of Doctor Strange and Doctor Fate.Came to the moon as the last line of defense.

Bruce knew that if they, Tony's machine didn't make a successful intercept, it would lock onto Antoinette's position and get there in the blink of an eye.

But when the phoenix approached, that force oppressed everyone, and in an instant, they mentally defeated everyone's fighting spirit.At that moment, Bruce knew in his heart that any struggle was futile, they couldn't stop the phoenix, and even slowing down its speed was futile.Nothing can stop that force, which comes from the most primitive force in the world.

Tony controlled the machine without taking a step back on the calculated course.Even though all the panels of his machine had issued an alarm of radiation breaking the meter earlier, he still did not retreat.Containing and returning the power was out of the question, but at least he could try to break it, or at least hinder it.

He turned off all the alarms, set the threshold to the upper limit, and thanked himself for not bothering to install a safety device.Their safety gear is a joke at this level of power.

He saw the light of the green light gliding across the sky like a shooting star, chasing another shooting star, which should be Carol.He and Carol had been friends, and he hoped she was okay.

Superman took off from the moon and quickly picked up Thor who was about to fall to the ground.

The mages have long since cut off communication, and their whereabouts are currently unknown.

Tony recalibrated his field of vision and adjusted it to the maximum position to see a spot of light approaching, and the spot of light was right in front of him in the next second.He saw the light form a real giant firebird at close range, and he was so oppressed that he couldn't even breathe on his own. The scorching radiation penetrated the thick metal armor of the machine and made him feel like he was on fire.

"Tony, you can't resist this." Amidst the huge radiation noise, Reed's voice was intermittent, and he could barely hear it with his ears pricked up.

But he couldn't retreat anymore, he couldn't retreat, so he replied "It's all or nothing."

The moment the phoenix approached him, he pressed the energy cannon on the chest of the machine to focus all the energy there, just like he usually did when he was wearing his armor, pressing the launch button with all his strength while closing his eyes , Avoid going to your own possible ending.

But in the next moment, nothing happened, and the panel of the machine was still blushing, telling it that the power was still in front of it.But the burning sensation was no longer so intense, as if something isolated him from the burning heat.

So Tony risked opening his eyes and witnessed the one thing he dreaded most in his life.

Even if the figure of the back that stands between him and Fenghuang is turned into ashes, he can still recognize it as his close relative who has been related by blood for more than 20 years. They are as close as brothers in a literal sense.And now her small shoulders were facing the phoenix, as if she would be swallowed by the flames in the next second, and the energy cannon he had just fired directly hit the vest.

This scene made Tony seem to really feel the pain of a broken arm at this moment.

The pincer attack of the two forces produced a huge explosion, and the dazzling light burned everyone's eyes like a supernova explosion.Human instinct dictates that they close their eyes until the light outside fades enough that the retina can take it.

Bruce turned up the brightness of the spacesuit for the first time, wanting to know what happened.The fact that Tony's machine hovered over the moon unharmed made him feel a little relieved, but immediately he remembered the little figure who had intervened before the light burst, and his heart was suspended again.

"Iron Man, answer, Iron Man, what happened." Batman pressed the communication button to ask immediately, but found that nothing could be picked up in the earphones except for the noise of Zizz.So he simply gave up the communication, jumped out of the temporary base and ran towards Iron Man's machine.

Superman fell in front of him three seconds later and blocked his way.Batman flicked his arm angrily, trying to tell him to go away, but the broken communication and the vacuum of the moon made it impossible for him to really let the other party hear this, so he could only walk around.

Superman reluctantly took a step aside and firmly blocked his way.But he didn't have time to block all of Bruce's view, he saw over his shoulder that there was a huge basin three meters ahead.Bruce couldn't tell whether it was there in the first place or just caused it, because Antoinette was kneeling in the center of the basin, curled up and pressed to the ground, unable to see his expression.Her whole body could be seen shrouded in red light, and there were a few faintly visible white lights entangled in it.

Bruce understood Superman's encouragement, and his face showed that the current radiation emitted from Antoinette was still extremely high.He could only stop at this position, watching the two colors of light entangle, struggle, absorb, and finally merge into Antoinette's body.

The radiation value then decreases geometrically and stops at a certain value.It's a good thing the radiation is down, but somehow Batman's heart doesn't let it go.

Iron Man had already shed that layer of cumbersome machinery and rushed down at breakneck speed.Before Bruce could stop him, Antoinette, who was kneeling there, straightened his upper body and shouted to the sky, his voice disappeared in the vacuum.She didn't wear a spacesuit, she didn't have any protection, but she had no effect in the universe.

Bruce didn't have time to think about these details. He watched those calm forces erupt again on Antoinette. The red light suddenly appeared, and the huge wings made of flames covered the sky. It can only be described as great, dazzling, pure Ancient, Bruce could feel the ground shaking.

And all these scenes are placed in silence, making it even more difficult to forget the impact of the scene.

The power faded like a tide after erupting for a while, and was taken back into Antoinette's body.

"Niti." Bruce called out subconsciously, he pushed Superman who was in front of him, and the latter obediently stepped aside, causing him to fall a few steps forward.

Surprisingly, Antoinette seemed to hear the silent call, and turned to look at him.The overflowing blue light in the eyes slowly withdrew, revealing the familiar blue eyes again.Antoinette looked at him, showing an expression of epiphany, and tilted his head at him and said a word.

Bruce couldn't hear the sound, he only had time to tell from the mouth shape that the other party was calling his name, not Batman, but Bruce.Then Tony blocked his view.

He walked further ahead than Bruce, ignoring all possible dangers, and walked directly one step in front of Antoinette, looking at her, who was also looking directly at him, with strange emotions in those familiar eyes.

Tony had the illusion that the other party seemed to be able to see directly into his heart through his visor.

Since Antoinette and Natalie merged into one, he felt the change, probably due to the different growth environments of the two people. Antoinette seemed very contradictory, even though she tried her best to cover it up.It's like a program that still works the same way on the surface, but Tony knows that the program inside it has changed.

And now this program has obviously been completely replaced by something else, Tony has an illusion that the one under the skin he is familiar with is no longer Antoinette.And this realization made him feel terrified, and he asked directly, "What are you?"

"This is... a very interesting question." The other party tilted his head, showing an emotionless smile that Antoinette would never have. There is no medium between them, but they can communicate miraculously.

She didn't really answer him, but looked in another direction. In that direction, a strange man was holding Doctor Strange who was injured by the phoenix and fell to the ground.

Strange had a surprised expression on his face the moment he saw her.And Antoinette ignored him and looked at another person, who also looked at her seriously, and Tony could hear the other person say, "Don't forget your promise."

And Antoinette responded with a nod.

In the next second, a red light flashed behind her, and she disappeared.

"Where are you going!"

"She's going to do what we promised before, and kill Lucifer." The man who hadn't left yet walked up to them and said to them, with a serious expression that didn't look like a joke.He actually looked around until the others came out of the makeshift base to catch up with them before saying, the voice going straight into everyone's head "I hope you all know that Antoinette Stark is probably no longer It exists, for your own good, it is best not to make any more temptations."

"What happened to her?" Professor X asked, in a daze, after a moment's silence.

"I gave her back the glory that belonged to her, and restored her to the status of an angel, so that with a higher consciousness, it is more likely to control the Phoenix Force... Now it seems that this strategy has succeeded."

"If she can control the Phoenix Force, what else is there?" others asked.

"Oh, you guys are so naive." The angel rolled his eyes, but still dutifully explained, "With the angel's thousands of years of memory, your mere 20-year memory is like a speck of dust."

"As I said, Antoinette Stark's personality has been crushed."

"...We...I won't give up on her."

In the dead silence, Gabriel turned his head to look at the only source of the sound. The golden-red armor mask looked expressionless, but he believed that it was the person Antoinette really wanted to convey.The other party's stubbornness didn't affect him at all, he just shrugged, "As an agreement, I have at least warned you."
