[Zhongyingmei] The Spirit Master is backstabbing again

Although nominally speaking, Selina came to the building for a physical examination.

But in fact--

She spent very little time on the item of 'physical examination'.After the giant cage-like instrument covered her body and quickly finished the scan, the center of gravity of the whole thing slowly shifted.

Tony pointed to the human body modeling diagram on the screen, and explained all kinds of "little common sense of human body activities" to Serinia in detail.

"So here is my stomach," Celinya stared at the computer screen, and seriously repeated Tony's explanation just now, moving her fingers back and forth to indicate, "This is my heart..."

Like a treasure, this is the first time she has understood [myself] so clearly.Standing in the perspective of a bystander, watch every breath and heartbeat of [myself], and know where every activity of [myself] originated and where it will end.

Selinya recorded every message in the memo very solemnly, like a squirrel carefully hiding food in its cave.

"It's amazing..." Selina muttered to herself, looking up at Tony with admiration, "Technology is so interesting."

Although she has never been taught by any elders, and although there is no written record of the existence of her race, at last, she can finally experience what other children have had since childhood—not through self-exploration, but Someone can tell her what kind of existence she is.

It is no longer a matter of waiting until you feel pain when you are injured, and then you can conclude which force restrains yourself.

Tony raised his eyebrows, "Very well, interest is a good motivation to learn, then we can start the 'persuading to learn' mode."

He turned around and patted Banner on the shoulder behind him, "Here, a physicist with seven doctorates! You can follow him to learn some physical and chemical knowledge at any time - those are definitely your favorite, 'high-tech' technologies .”

Thinking of the physics test papers and math test papers that Pietro showed before, as well as the on-the-spot persuasion that Jason also did, Selinya: "...huh?"

That's not necessary? ?Was she just expressing her excitement? ?

"Don't worry, there's no need to be nervous, you're very talented," Tony immediately called out Selina's hesitation and praised her, "Don't you remember? Those two experiments on the sandman were all about you." done independently."

The first experiment was the difficult operation of silica vitrification!And it's done independently!It turned out to be such a success!What a gift!

Strange's thinking of dragging the girl to the sanctuary for magic research is completely delaying the amazing talent of the other party!

Banner, who was in charge of helping S.H.I.E.L.D. to restore the Sandman: "...oh."

Ah, The Talent.

... Sand people would cry themselves into clay figurines if they knew this rating.

As long as she thinks of the mathematical formulas like 'sin(AB)=sin...' she has seen before, Selinya can't help but sincerely admire the human cubs in modern society.

She tried to pull the situation back for herself, interrupted Tony's plan, and immediately explained in a low voice: "Actually, I have been studying hard recently-a lot of interesting knowledge."

Yes, a lot of... 'interesting' knowledge.

Selinya's recent courses: "How to dismantle bombs as quickly as possible", "How to use the most common basic raw materials to make explosives", "How to counter-kill the enemy in a confined space", "Cracking and using key codes "(Of course, since Selinya knew nothing about the last project, the system quietly helped her cheat as if nothing had happened)

Faculty Advisor: Jason Todd.

Roy, an insider, also expressed high recognition for these courses: "whatthefuck—Xiaohong, are you planning to send talents to the CIA or to SHIELD?!"

Yes, it's all very interesting knowledge.

"Interesting?" Tony repeated the word, and exchanged a subtle look with Natasha.

Well, of course, it's not that he doesn't trust Serenia, but that the term "interesting" is too broad.

For example, Hulk still thinks it's 'interesting' to hold two god brothers back and forth.

But the cost of this kind of entertainment is extremely expensive, and there is a serious risk of house demolition.

It's not a big problem, it's not a big problem, Selinya is so obedient, of course she wouldn't classify such dangerous incidents as "interesting".

What she said was funny must be really funny.

It wasn't until Selina had lunch with the Avengers in the building and was sent home by Tony that she remembered to ask herself the original reason for going out this time, "My inspection results——"

"Very good." Before Selinya finished speaking, Tony replied quickly and firmly, "You have very good physical fitness."

"Oh," Selina nodded, and continued to ask expectantly, "Then can I ask a few more questions?"

Tony's hand holding the steering wheel subconsciously exerted force, "...Of course. What's the problem?"

"I want to know—" Selinya stretched out her hand and gestured at her height very seriously, her tone couldn't hide her excitement, "Will I continue to grow taller after I become an adult?"

This is the problem related to bone age, and it is also within the scope of this test.

Tony recalled the result data, and replied with great certainty: "Of course!"

... Anyway, after training the day after tomorrow, I can grow one or two centimeters taller no matter what - that's right, that's how it is.

This is called, 'Take your destiny completely into your own hands'.Don't admit defeat, don't admit defeat.

Tony, who has a deep understanding of this, made a firm conclusion.

Selinya completely believed Tony's conclusion, her eyes lit up instantly, and she immediately imagined the day when she would surpass Mr. Stark, surpass Jason, and even rival the dragon—

The little girl pursed her lips, looking yearning, "That's great."

She is particularly obsessed with height. After all, magical creatures are generally tall and strong: a werewolf who is two or three meters tall, a vampire who starts at 1.9 meters and three meters... Except for succubus, goblins and other talented races, only Selina This kind of 'product' is forcibly cultivated by adjusting the diet.

Well, I still feel a little resentful.

Tony looked sideways at Selinya, and guessed, he said, "Speaking of your coming of age—it's this year."

The division of "adult age" has a great relationship with the lifespan of a species; and it is of course difficult to judge the adult age of a species only by detecting individual isolated cases.

Moreover, every organ of Selinya, every one, has shown an extremely weakened state.They can't even judge whether these organs have matured or not.

"... yes..." right?Selina replied not confidently.

After all, in the world she grew up in, except for long-lived creatures like vampires and dragons, most magical creatures are divided into adulthood with '' as the boundary.

It's hard to imagine a being in this world who doesn't know anything about herself, when she's going to come of age, or when she's going to die; How was it born, whether it was born viviparously like a human being, or it has to break out of its shell.

——It wasn't until Selinya signed a contract with the system, and she saw the experience after her birth through a short retrospective, that she finally solved this question.

Oh, it turns out that she once came to the world with the love and expectation of her family; it turns out that she was once held in the arms of her parents and coaxed softly like the children of noble families.

"That's right." The system said suddenly, solving Serenya's hesitation, "The host's adulthood will be this year."

Selinya: "...you always know a lot of information that I don't know myself."

For example, her birthday, which she had never known before, was only known through the 'host data' provided by the system panel.

There was a very slight noise from the sea of ​​data, like a faint laugh.

Coincidentally, Tony also immediately seized the opportunity to ask Serenia's birthday, "What day is that?"

"March 21." Although Selinya didn't understand the meaning of this time point, she answered obediently.

"..." Tony paused subconsciously even when he stepped on the brakes, and his voice amplified unconsciously, "3.21?"

"what happened?"

"Nothing, I mean—" Tony twitched his lips, "We're here."

— March 21.

If he remembered correctly, the eldest son of the Bat family, Nightwing Dick, also had this birthday.

After learning from Natasha that "Selinia was driven to the mansion by Bruce (with two cubs)", Tony was particularly determined to drive her back by himself.

Natasha described this as a 'weird childish desire to compare'.

Of course, what Tony did was not as simple as 'send Selene home'.

After the car stopped, the smart butler automatically opened the trunk. Tony patted the neat cardboard boxes, felt the heavy weight, and winked at Selina, "knowledgeispower."

Well, it is indeed a very heavy force.

Although Selina declined the invitation of Tony and Banner to make up lessons with a stiff expression, she showed a high interest in books—even in almost all books.so--

"We've picked some books you're supposed to like," Tony flipped through the top few. "High school physics, huh? Did Pietro stuff his own textbooks in there?"

The Avengers prepared five cardboard boxes of books for Selinya as gifts.

...Although they are all books, it is amazing that every time you open a book, you can clearly guess who chose it.

"The origin of painting, introduction to physics, popular science books, and—"

Tony's expression was twisted into a ball, filled with disbelief, ""World News Weekly"?"

World News Weekly, a newspaper that claims to 'report facts only', and can't find a few real events in all the reports, and sells all kinds of superpower news as a selling point.

Who the hell put this in?Are you crazy?Or is it a collection of yearbook collector's edition bonuses?Don't spoil the kids, okay?

"Don't read this." Tony quickly closed the book and threw it into the trunk.

"Ah?" Selinya looked back blankly, "But I asked Mr. Housekeeper to order this for me. It's hard to buy, and it's already been discontinued——"

"Ah! I've already paid for it!" She added in a very serious way.

Tony: "..."

It's certainly not about the money... oh!Wait!

Tony looked at Selinya with surprise in his eyes, "ok, okay. Actually, what I mean is—"

It's so rare that Selinya has become used to letting the smart housekeeper handle things for her.

This is a very important development, considering that a few months ago, she would still be nervous when walking into the building.Be cautious and vigilant, as if giving her a smile will make her happy.

Not to mention taking the initiative to ask the Avengers to do something for her; even when she passively accepted their kindness, she would show an extremely unaccustomed resistance.

——She is getting used to accepting the kindness of others, which is a very good development.

Because Selinya is worth all of that... no, it's not just that.She should have a lot of beauty.

"Broaden your reading range," Tony calmly put Newsweek back into the box, and patted the dust that didn't exist on it. "It's a good habit, and it's worth continuing."

Although he still doesn't understand why the little girl is interested in this kind of 'story' book.

"Because the above news looks very interesting," Selina pointed to the magnified and shocking headline on the cover, "I've seen their reports on aliens and time travel, and Batboy? interesting."

Tony: "Ah." Interesting, all these examples you gave are false.

"You should be able to imagine..." Tony paused before continuing, "If those incidents and witnesses are true, then—that news probably won't be published."

Because, if the strange event is true, then S.H.I.E.L.D. has already rushed to study it.

Otherwise it is Hydra.

Or maybe the CIA too.

And of course the Sanctuary cannot be forgotten.

Selinya nodded slowly, expressing her understanding, "That's it."

Under the calm reaction, Selinya cheered in her heart: What? !all fake! !There is such a good thing! !Why is this magazine closed down?Keep writing more!These are all precious materials for my summoning!

——Speaking Spiritualist is a profession that requires imagination and faith very much.

Even if the events in the records are false, as long as she has enough faith and ability, Selina can even summon the ancient gods.

Selinya's tone and expression were fairly calm, but Tony still turned his head to look at her carefully for a moment, silently worried: "... won't be hit by the truth, right? '

Unscrupulous publishing houses do a lot of harm.

After all, when Peter first learned that almost half of the "Unsolved Mysteries of the World" series, which were particularly popular in his childhood, were actually fictional stories, he felt the shock of his childhood being destroyed.

Selinya, who was suspected of being 'heavily hit', hugged the carton very carefully, "Thank you very much——"

"Da." The two knocks made Tony's hand stop him, "Ha, just right."

Tony snatched back the box from Serenia's hand, looked at Jason who was approaching, and said unceremoniously, "Boy, come here to help."

Jason: "..."

It is indeed Tony Stark who tried to turn Banner into Hulk when they first met.

But he bent down immediately and carried all the heavy boxes in one by one.

Of course, it must be Selina herself who Jason brought home first.Frowning, he glanced around at the other party's thin clothes, and reluctantly accepted the other party's statement "It's really not cold! It's already March!".

"Boy," Tony, who was sitting in the car, stopped Jason after the last cardboard box was moved, pressed down his sunglasses and stared at him, "I have something to tell you."

"I'm also very interested in the 'interesting courses' you have learned recently," Tony shrugged at Serenia, "Let's discuss and discuss, maybe we can directly introduce them into Peter's daily training."

Tony didn't get out of the car, but he had already vaguely heard the brief barking of a puppy coming from the house after Selina entered the door.

——Well, I'm completely relieved, there are indeed small animals in the house.Selinia's critter description wasn't referring to bat cubs.

As soon as Jason got into the car, Tony threw the tablet to him, "Selinya's test results."

"You should understand."

"..." Hearing the other party's uncharacteristic tone, Jason's heart sank suddenly, and he read it immediately, the expression on his face quickly faded as he turned the page.

"Her ribs have been fatally injured more than three times," Tony leaned back in the chair, his eyes empty, "and every Achilles' heel you can imagine has signs of injury."

Those fatal points of repeated injuries, the first few, can be pushed back to ten years ago.

At that time, Selinya was only seven years old at most.How could, how could anyone—

He couldn't even imagine how Selina survived all that, and then finally met them.

... There are so many beautiful things that quietly start to die from the inside.

That cannot happen, that cannot happen.

Jason looked at the data character by character, nailing each number into his mind.

Those scars that would never heal seemed to be starting to hurt again, and blank blankness was mixed with the pain, pressing against his stomach and constantly churning.

There is a countdown that will not stop, smashing into his heartbeat and breathing.

"She never showed it," Tony said, looking at Jason, "right."

Jason opened his mouth, but couldn't squeeze out any answer.

Tony knew what he wanted to say, "We guessed it too."

The little girl rushed into the battlefield with a staff in her hand, looking beautiful, and she herself did not show any signs of weakness or discomfort.

No one would believe it if it hadn't been confirmed again and again that there would be no problems with the instrument.

but.Why?

—— "I think you should know some information."

The system received this string of data broadcasts abruptly.

Smart butler from Tony.According to the short-lived frequency left by the system when it appeared for the first two times, after analyzing the unimaginably huge data flow and reverse output, he finally found a way to communicate with the system.

Of course the system knew how much calculation would be involved, so he was surprised, "This is a calculation that is likely to have no results."

Mr. Steward disagrees: "But it's worth it."

The system does not understand.But he still kindly gave the maximum amount of information he could give.

"If a creature is incredibly powerful," the system's voice was extremely calm, it was a truly emotionless mechanical voice, "then why didn't they directly surpass human beings and rule the world?"

"..." Under the cover of a calm voice, the data flow of the smart housekeeper suddenly fluctuated because of this horrifying summary.

The world constructed by human beings is simply not suitable for spiritual masters to survive.

Those are free souls that cannot be restrained even by death. After death, they all choose to disperse with the wind without leaving any traces, so how could they be willing to be bound by layers of the human world.

'Destiny' is the shackles that bind superheroes, like nails nailed to the cross one by one, making them a great sacrifice in the name of 'heroes'.

And that's actually what happened to Selina.

Under the trajectory of fate, Selinya lost her family and everything, and was brought to the human world to be carefully cultivated as a sharp weapon.

Fate turned Icarus, who yearned for the sun, into a caged bird imprisoned in a tower.And let her chirp and sing to show off her beauty.

The way the system binds the host is not because he 'selected' Selinya in countless worlds, but Selinya's soul firmly attracted him, let him flow to that world, and took her away.

That is a dazzling strong soul.She should have been crushed by the gears of fate, she saved herself again and again.

In the beginning, it was 17 years before Selina's family members still protected her before she died, kissing her forehead lightly, and telling her gently with the last words: "We love you, live on."

Then, for 17 years, every time Selene was thrown into danger and faced with death, she stood up and said to herself, "Live."

Life is already the only thing she has, and she still has too many things to do, she can't lose this one thing, it is all her.

Such a strong belief is the most powerful spiritual spell that Selinia has constructed in that magical world.

She wants to live.

So Selinya also relied on this belief to carry through death again and again.

When the system first came into contact with Selinya, she was bandaging her own wound, her body was covered in blood, but she didn't show much expression.Probably because I know that no one will comfort me, so I don't even bother to cry, it's better to save my energy.

The system automatically scanned and detected the host's physique, and he immediately realized that the other party was already in a weakened and dying state; it was she who used the spirit of speech to pull herself back desperately, repair her body, and let herself survive.

From that moment on, the system is aware of:

Who said she was a spiritualist who never succeeded, she saved herself.

She is her own savior.

"If you want to do something for her, do nothing. Give her your love and your trust."

After this sentence, the system immediately cut off the contact with the smart housekeeper.

He didn't record this conversation in the data sea.

Just like him, he never recorded Serenia's physical condition.

Celinya's physique was completely, not at all suitable to be the host of the system from the very beginning.

It was Selina who chose the system, and it was the system who chose Selina.

It was Selinya who pulled the heroes of this world out of their fate, and it was she who was held firmly by them, holding the kite string.

Jason stood outside the door for about 3 minutes, trying to stop his brain that was about to burst, before finally opening the door.

The heat in the room, wrapped in the aroma of milk, brushed over Jason's hair.

Holding the freshly warmed milk, Selina turned around and announced to Jason with great pride: "Mr. Stark said it! According to the test results, I will continue to grow taller in the future!"

One centimeter a week, rounded up, she'll be over Jason in no time!

Jason: "...Ah."

not yet.Come.

"By the way, this is the photo Mr. Clark sent just now, it's his family's farm," Selina excitedly held out her phone to Jason, "Look! This is a lamb on the farm!"

"Special! Cute!" Emphasizes very seriously.

Literally walks hop by hop.

Jason sat next to Selinya, didn't say much, didn't have much reaction, he just stretched out his hand suddenly, wrapping Selinya's wrist.

"Huh?" Selinya looked at Jason suspiciously, but without any resistance, she continued to flip through the photos to share, "This is the rabbit sent by Mr. Clark! Look, they are all so small."

Cat's paw on top.

Cats have a strong hunting instinct and are very vigilant. They need to run away or attack at any time, jump and run.Only when I trust you will I let your hand rest on my paw.

Jason was counting Serenia's heartbeats.

Every stroke was calculated very carefully, as if every stroke was a warehouse house that was about to collapse, sending out a huge shock in the depths of my heart.

The pain from the scar was still there, as if the rope had been pulled to the extreme and was about to break.

When Tony sent Selina back to Gotham, Bruce finally watched Dick and Tim leave, and he was in the Batcave, staring at the audio sent by Selina for a long time.

He had already determined what it was.

"It seems that you have new troubles," Alfred said, looking at Bruce, "but it really doesn't bother you."

Bruce: "..." He didn't answer the question.

It was just that after Alfred left the Batcave, he was silent for a moment, and before encrypting the audio into the bottommost database, he turned on the audio again.

"Because Jason always knew how much I loved him." Batman's angry growl came through with pain.

... coming simultaneously through three speakers turned up to maximum.Go around the Batcave.

Well, not just a lap, but an echo.

Bruce: "..."

Alfred returned again: "...Oh."

Mr. Steward, who almost watched the growth of the bat family and the big and small birds, immediately praised after regaining consciousness: "This is really a very impressive sentence, sir."

"I want to tell you that before Master Tim left, he tried to turn on the three main speakers in the Batcave." Ah Fu now knows what the other party wanted to hear just now.

"...where are they?"

(Unfortunately,) "Just left the manor 5 minutes ago."

— Alfred felt that this was a pity.They should really come and hear that.

"..." Bruce dragged the mouse silently and turned down the speaker.

——Probably just like what Tony said when educating Spider-Man, there is still not enough homework.

When comforting Vision and Wanda, Selina explained to them, "Even if there are no cyborgs, they will always find other reasons to attack the Avengers."

This is fact, it is truth, and it is happening now.

Selinya made an appointment early in the morning to meet with the Watsons and Mr. Holmes.

She's even ready to celebrate!Probably after this meeting, she will be able to usher in her first successfully completed side mission!

But while sitting in the restaurant and waiting, Serenya watched today's news expressionlessly.

-'Deciphering the Ultron incident, human beings do not need mechanical maintenance! '

-'Who's going to constrain the superheroes? ! '

This is not a report, but a gunshot aimed at a hero.

Too many people have a mouth that is unwilling to be lonely, through countless lighted-up mobile phone screens and rattling keyboards, rushing in like a hyena to chew meat and bones.

Selina didn't need to swipe her phone at all to see a lot of comments on the Avengers under the news.

At this moment, Selinya almost thought that the era had not passed, and she was still living in the magical world.

"There are so many things," Shirley, who was sitting at the front desk looking at the store, rolled her eyes, and asked loudly, "Did they pay for Iron Man's equipment, or did they pay Batman?"

Selene didn't respond, concentrating on texting Mr. Stark.

"I think," Shirley became more and more excited as she spoke, and she simply went across to Selinya, "These people are addicted to food, and they talk nonsense when they can't do it—"

Her intense output was interrupted by a sudden freezing atmosphere, a sudden sense of vacuum that even ordinary people could perceive.

The entire space twisted and shrunk without warning, and a bottomless black hole appeared in the sky, annihilating everything and expanding rapidly, as if to annihilate every inch of the world.

【Ding--】

An unprecedented sense of oppression, accompanied by the system's siren, exploded in Selinya's mind at the same time.

She looked at the system illustrated book reflexively, and the name of [Planet Galactus] was erupting with a strange and sharp red light.

"Planet Devourer didn't come alone." Doctor Strange was the first to perceive everything and collected as much information as possible from the other party. "He brought a very large spaceship and planetary destruction machine."

Galactus is an extremely powerful god of world destruction, whose strength far exceeds that of ordinary gods.

And just like his name, he feeds on devouring planets.

"How big is it?"

"... Even if you can mobilize all the Iron Man suits to pounce on that spaceship, the chance of success is very low." Doctor Strange said, "And you have to launch the attack in an instant, or you will be swallowed by him. In an instant, you can mobilize So much explosives?"

"I can."

Celinya opened the portal and answered first.

In the system backpack, the [ship (including bomb, countdown: ten seconds)] icon is still on.
