[Comprehensive] The Last Assassin

Tony did complete the animus, and even because of the Rhythmic Gem in his hand, his machine's time point judgment is more accurate than the Templar's internal machine, and the side effects are also lower.But he did not agree with Shen Qiong's decision.

But he couldn't stop the girl.

Before starting the device, he stopped and asked Shen Qiong for the last time: "You know what will happen, right."

Shen Qiong turned her head and looked at him quietly.

Tony straightened his lips, and said, "All your father's thoughts and emotions before death will all impact your spirit. The most terrifying thing about the so-called 'bleeding effect' of the animus is actually the impact of others on your spirit. Stop, and you'll lose yourself."

Shen Qiong just said: "Warren succeeded, so can I."

After a pause, she looked at Tony: "Trust me."

Tony couldn't say anything else, even if he wanted to stop Shen Qiong again.

He knew it was useless.

Like Potts couldn't stop him.

Tony said: "I will let Jarvis monitor your brainwaves, and if there is any danger, I will force you to eject."

Shen Qiong said she would accept such an arrangement.

Tony couldn't resist her, and started to connect the device for her. When he connected the metal patch to Shen Qiong's skin, he asked casually, "Did you tell Steve about this?"

"My uncle?" Shen Qiong was a little embarrassed, "Uh, I told him that I have a plan with you, a plan to find gems to save lives by tracing memory."

Tony raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "So? You told him what the plan of the animus is, and what is the failure rate?"

Shen Qiong said slowly: "I mentioned you, so he is relieved." Thinking of this, Shen Qiong couldn't help narrowing her eyes and smiling: "Is your relationship not as bad as it appears? Captain America seems to trust Iron Man very much. , although I heard from Doctor Strange that during the time I went to Cairo, you guys had a fight?"

"But you still funded the new Avengers."

"I did this for myself. If you quit being an assassin, Hawkeye is about to retire. You can take over from him."

Tony's expression was unnatural, he straightened Shen Qiong's head, put on the final helmet decoration on her, grinned at her and made a face, and took a peek.Like a full-fledged elder, he said: "Don't worry about children so much."

Shen Qiong snorted coldly while hugging the helmet, and muttered, "What are you pretending to be, as if I'm really underage."

"In my heart, you are a minor." Tony didn't take his eyes off the screen projected in the air, "You will act recklessly, regardless of the consequences."

Shen Qiong was not very happy to hear this: "Hey, Mr. Stark, don't you think this is used to describe yourself?"

Tony turned his head when he heard this, glanced at her, and laughed.He waved his hands lazily: "But it doesn't matter."

He made the final adjustments: "There is Iron Man behind you."

Shen Qiong was taken aback, but Tony Stark had already completed all the preliminary work, and finally asked her, "Are you ready?"

Shen Qiong nodded in a daze.

Tony kept his eyes on her and said, "Then go."

When she saw the countless poor test subjects in the dungeon of the church who went mad due to the side effects of the animus project, Shen Qiong once thought about what she had gone through to completely destroy a healthy person mentally. .

But when the discomfort caused by mechanical stimulation deep in the cerebral cortex completely ruled all the nerves in her body, Shen Qiong had to admit that this feeling, the pain of ordinary torture is not even one percent of what it brings .

For a moment, Shen Qiong even wanted to dig out her own brain.

——But this is the beginning that Warren Worthington has experienced, and is at ease, without ever mentioning a word.

Shen Qiong gasped, and the scene in front of her eyes finally changed from a large expanse of glaring white light to a breezy blue sky.

She stretched out her hand to cover the somewhat harsh light, but saw a slender and flawless hand.

—it was a well-kept woman's hand, but not hers.

Shen Qiong slowly put down her hand, she saw a row of flower pots growing gratifyingly in the courtyard, and a persimmon tree planted in the center of the courtyard.This is an old house full of childhood memories that Shen Qiong saw in those alleys when she was young.

A bungalow made of bluestone bricks and tiles.It's just that this one is a bit special, it's huge, and compared to the low pigeon houses in the alley, it's more like a complete courtyard house that has been carefully restored.

"Yu, she's crying again, come and see what's wrong with her?"

Shen Qiong heard the voice, and slowly shifted her gaze from the room to the man who walked out of the room in a state of desperation, holding a crying little girl.

He has brilliant blond hair and emerald eyes more beautiful than the most expensive emeralds.He looked at Shen Qiong with tenderness and unspoken love in his eyes. Sean Worthington held her crying daughter in one hand, and said to "Shen Qiong": "I asked her, did she Don't want to tell me." He sighed, and said helplessly to the little girl who buried her head in his shoulder: "Princess, why did I upset you?"

Probably very few people have experienced this feeling.

Through my mother's eyes, I saw myself being held in my father's arms.

Shen Qiong stood up slowly, and she heard herself say, "Liz, are you bullying Dad again?"

The young Elizabeth Worthington had the same black hair as her mother, but did not inherit her mother's amber pupils.She has her father's green eyes and the proof of the Worthington blood.At this moment, the little girl who was spoiled by her parents was aggressively picking on her father, and said confidently: "Father lied again, he said that he would take me to see pandas yesterday!"

The man who found out the reason was relieved. He bent down, put the little ancestor down, stroked her head and said apologetically, "Sorry, Dad had a task yesterday, can I take you there today?"

Elizabeth Worthington still looks pretty upset.

But in the end, the mother who wanted to see the panda prevailed, and she decided to forgive her father.

"Okay then, but I have to replenish it again in the future!"

Sean laughed, and he patted Elizabeth's soft hair: "You are so smart, who do you look like?"

Elizabeth did not let go of "Shen Qiong"'s legs.

The woman bent down a little helplessly, and said to her daughter, "Elizabeth, Dad has already apologized, if you don't give up, Mom will be angry."

Although Elizabeth was dissatisfied, she let go of her hand, ran back into the house, and said loudly, "I'm going to prepare things for going out!"

Sean looked at his daughter and laughed, and he said to his wife, "Am I right? We should have brought her here and left her alone in S.H.I.E.L.D. Natasha won't accompany children."

"How do you know that Natasha doesn't like her?" Shao Yu smiled slightly, "This time I'm going to deal with the Brotherhood of Assassins in the eastern stronghold, and I don't know if I can talk to them this time."

"We just want to study the fragments with them, there is no big problem." Sean stretched out his arms and hugged his wife, "Besides, because of what the Templars did in the Middle East last time, I have accepted the Assassins. training. Your assassin friend also said that I have talent, I am a born assassin, right?"

"I heard that the Worthington family also produced assassins, maybe I really have assassin's blood on my body." He joked, "I hope this can help me gain more impression points in front of this assassin named Wang Hao. "

Sean smiled a bit like Warren, but more calm and elegant than Warren.

He said to his wife: "Mr. Stark took this into consideration and chose me to deliver this 'Piece of Eden'."

Sean thought about it: "Although the main body was brought back by the ancient mage of Karma Taj, the remaining fragment is enough for us to uncover a mysterious corner of the universe, so no matter what, we have to convince the local assassin, let us take it back to S.H.I.E.L.D. and study it together."

Shao Yu nodded: "We should not be enemies with Kama Taj, but we must take the rest back."

Sean patted his wife on the shoulder: "Don't think about it. Anyway, Wang Hao won't come today. Let's take Liz to see her favorite panda."

Shao Yu smiled, and frowned as if thinking of something: "Her birthday present this year, I heard from Natasha that you ordered a gun for her?"

"Uh, probably not?" Sean's expression was erratic.

Shao Yu hugged her chest: "Sean?"

The young agent raised his hand and surrendered: "Well, thankfully, I asked Natasha to make an adult model and engrave my name on it by the way." He added: "This is what Master Tony promised to do for me. Thinking about teaching Liz to shoot with this gun when she gets older—because it was produced by the Stark family, someone will upgrade the warranty for her, isn’t it great?”

"Leeds doesn't need a gun." Shao Yu emphasized, "We agreed, not agents, not assassins, and no S.H.I.E.L.D."

Sean looked a little regretful, and he tried to fight again: "She's talented, you haven't seen her use my dagger... Well, you're right, Liz should live a normal life."

"We have to let him choose, just like your father allowed you to 'disappear'." Shao Yu looked at the little girl who went out again with the package and smiled, "She will be as free and powerful as you."

Sean hugged his wife: "It's better to be as strong as you."

Elizabeth hugged her bag with excitement written in her eyes, and she said cheerfully, "We can go out now!"

"Okay, let's go now." Sean bent down to pick up the little girl, but suddenly the doorbell of the courtyard rang.

This house is the property of the fraternity, and the Worthingtons have moved in less than a week. It stands to reason that no one should visit except the assassin Wang Hao.

Xiao En thought it was Wang Hao who had changed his mind, and reported to his superiors in advance. Now he came to discuss cooperation details with him, so he went to open the door.

However, when he walked to the door of the house, many experiences of life and death made him stop.

It was very quiet outside the house, except for the initial ringing of the doorbell, there was not even the slightest footsteps.

Shao Yu noticed his abnormality, comforted his daughter and then cast a searching look at her husband.

Xiao En frowned, and shook his head slightly at Shao Yu.

He opened the door.

A cold corpse fell head-on!

Sean was extremely vigilant, and shot a silent throwing knife in the blink of an eye!

Then there was no one behind the body.

Sean was startled, and then looked at the corpse.The corpse was dressed in a red and black robe with a hood and an assassin's belt.Sean's eyelids trembled slightly, he squatted down, and lifted the hood of the corpse.

——It's the assassin Wang Xu from the Eastern Stronghold.

The rush sounded suddenly!

Sean turned his head, only to see a man in a black robe appearing in the courtyard of his home at some point.

He has night-black eyes, a black cross embroidered on his collar, and a metal vial with a few milliliters hanging around his neck.

At this moment Shao Yu was shooting at him.

Shao Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"

Hearing this, the monk turned his gaze from Xiao En to Shao Yu just now. Shao Yu's shot missed, but Shao Yu knew that he hadn't missed it. There must be some visual device on this man that could confuse others, so that Shao Yu Yu aimed a shot but only hit the persimmon tree in the courtyard.

The monk straightened his cuffs and introduced himself politely to Shao Yu: "Good afternoon, Mrs. Worthington."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Nedilat, and I belong to the Exorcist Holy Order among the Templar Knights." After saluting, he straightened up and said with narrowed eyes, "I'm here to get you something by order of the Grand Master. "

The Worthingtons, who had already had the experience of working with assassins once, were obviously not ignorant of what the Exorcist Holy Order was like.The two of them tensed up at the same time, and Sean even pulled out his gun, and said in bad words: "SHIELD and the Templars are used to not messing with each other, so what are you talking about here?"

"That's why S.H.I.E.L.D. hired the assassin, and I'm why." The monk's black eyes fixed on Sean, "Where's the Pieces of Eden? I don't want to kill the lady and the child, hand them over."

Sean narrowed his eyes: "I don't know what you're talking about."

Elizabeth hid behind Shao Yu, her eyes fixed on the man who came suddenly.

Around her neck was a thin silver chain with an emerald ring on it.I don't know what to feel, this ring is faintly emitting green light.

Neditra's expression changed, he stared at the newly made ring, his eyes were full of fanaticism and obsession.

He reached out and wanted to snatch it!

The monk stared at the ring and rolled up his cuffs: "That's a pity, Mr. Worthington."

Pieces of Eden hold great power.

Shen Qiong knew this from Henry when she was very young.However, the first Piece of Eden holder she met was Bernard who didn't know how to use it at all, so she didn't even have Tony, who had witnessed the power, understand how terrifying the Piece of Eden's power was.

The Worthington couple, who were trusted by Howard Stark of the SHIELD, had no resistance at all in front of this Templar who seemed to hold a piece of Eden that interfered with his thoughts.

Do not--! !

Shen Qiong shouted desperately in her heart: Dad——

The saber with blood grooves pierced Sean's heart.

Then cut Shao Yu's throat.

Shen Qiong was trapped in Shao Yu's body like this, motionless, only feeling Shao Yu's hatred and fear that could burn everything.

Before facing the irresistible force, she hugged her child tightly, trying to hide her under her body.

The despair that Shen Qiong could feel came from Elizabeth's despair.

Shao Yu hugged Elizabeth quietly, her throat was cut, and she couldn't utter a word except blood bubbles, but Shen Qiong knew what she was talking about, and she knew that "she" understood it too.

"Mom, mom." Elizabeth's eyes were red but she didn't dare to cry loudly. She desperately covered Shao Yu's throat with her hands, as if she wanted to mend it.

Shao Yu just pressed her quietly, exhausting his last strength.

The monk lowered his eyes and spoke indifferently.He tried to stretch out his hand to break Shao Yu away, only to find that Shao Yu's arm was as strong as steel, protecting his child tightly, preventing the monk from moving an inch!

The monk sighed, looking helpless: "Mrs. Worthington, it's time for you to sleep."

Then he picked up the long saber with some blood grooves again.Drive straight down from Shao Yu's back!Pierced Elizabeth's abdomen through Shao Yu! !

Shen Qiong's nerves snapped at this moment.

Pain, extreme pain!

The pain caused Shen Qiong to lose consciousness directly!

She just rolled out of the simulation cabin!

"Joan?" Tony noticed the abnormality in the data, and he hurriedly observed Shen Qiong who had fallen to the ground, but Shen Qiong's consciousness was still connected with the machine, and the data showed that she hadn't escaped from the animus at all!

Tony immediately activated the emergency escape system, and Shen Qiong reflexively bounced and fell down!

Her head hit hard on the marble floor tiles, but she didn't seem to feel any pain at all, holding on to the ground, retching in pain, and clutching her neck as if she was about to pinch her neck.

A ferocious face with red eyes like a ghost was reflected on the marble floor.

Shen Qiong scratched her palm with her fingers, blood dripped and splashed on the floor tiles, she was still immersed in the program, screaming uncontrollably: "—he killed them, he killed them, he killed them!"

"Joan...Joan?"

"—Joan Fry!!"

Shen Qiong was vomiting physiologically, but her whole body was convulsing.She felt herself lifted up as Tony Stark cupped her face, trying to refocus her slackened pupils.

"Look at me, come, look at me." Tony patted her face anxiously, "Joan Frye, look at me!"

Shen Qiong's pupils condensed for a moment, and she looked at Tony Stark blankly.

Tony stared at her too, frowning.He couldn't see Shen Qiong with such an expression, so he simply reached out and hugged her in his arms, pressing the back of her head with his right hand, and patted her back with his left hand.

Tony felt his shoulders were wet with tears, his palm paused slightly, and then he patted Shen Qiong's back at a steady speed.

He hugged Shen Qiong and said softly like coaxing a child: "It's okay, it's over."

"It's all right, my little girl."
