"I have also discussed this with the temple priests. They all believe that the reincarnation of the goddess is possible. Others believe that the goddess is eternal, never reincarnated, but rarely reveals her real body."

"Then I have to say, has the goddess performed any miracles? If the goddess has not performed any miracles for thousands of years, believers have not lost their faith?"

Master Wang smiled, "Jesus has not performed miracles for nearly 2000 years." It means that more than 20 billion Catholics and Christians in the world have never lost their faith because Jesus did not perform miracles. The sign should be resurrection three days after death.

It makes sense.Devout believers will not give up their faith just because God does not perform miracles.

"Perhaps, the gods are all mutants?"

Master Wang laughed again: "Maybe."

Mutants fought against mutants, but they were shocked by the contemporaries as "miracles", so they were passed down, and evolved into myths and legends over the years, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

Alicia also talks to Charles Xavier about ancient gods and mutants.

"This issue, Eric and I have also discussed, mutant genes will not appear suddenly, there must be the 'first person'." Charles' holographic image appeared in the room, thanks to contemporary technology, thanks to Stark industry. "The emergence of Hydra is to go to different dimensions to rescue their leader, an ancient mutant, who probably survived 1500 years ago. Going forward, Mohammed, Jesus, Buddha , Laozi, Vishnu, Shiva, Ra, Anubis, Anu, Zeus, in terms of religious origin, these GODs are all people who can show 'miracles'. In the eyes of humans at that time, mutants All of your superpowers will be miraculous."

"And aliens," she added.

Charles just laughed, "Yes, such as Odin, Thor, and Loki. I originally thought that Odin was also a mutant," he shrugged, "But aliens are not unacceptable."

"You study the genes of mutants, but what about the brains of mutants?"

"The human brain is amazing. For example, Mr. Stark, Dr. Banner, and Hank, they can be regarded as the most intelligent group of people in this era. You can't say that they use 100% of their brains and others don't. Their smart people only use 50% of their brains, this kind of comparison does not exist, but it does happen that one person is far smarter than the other. Calculation is the 'IQ' value in the ordinary sense."

Three-dimensional images of brain neurons in different colors are displayed on the holographic screen. "Red is Stark, green is Banner, and blue is Hank." Another three-dimensional image of brain neurons is displayed, "This yellow one is an image of neurons of an ordinary human with an IQ value of around 120. Have you noticed? The difference lies in the number of neuron dendrites. Of course, mutants above the delta level generally have more neuron dendrites than ordinary humans.”

Alicia asked curiously, "What about my brain?"

The holographic image again shows a three-dimensional image of the brain's neurons in gold, then superimposes red, green, and blue on top.

"Your brain neuron picture is pretty much the same. They, including me, hippocampal neurons stop producing new neurons after 13 years of age, and you, you keep producing new neurons."

"Isn't that because I've always maintained a 13-year-old bone age?"

"Well... part of it is. But you're older now, and your bone age is 14 or 15 now, and your hippocampus has barely changed. The hippocampus, you know, has to do with memory, which is to say, In theory you should remember everything."

"So then why don't I remember?"

Charles spread his hands helplessly: "This is what I need to find a way to figure out."

New York, Greenwich Village, Brick Street, 177A.

Tony Stark reluctantly visited the Temple with Nick Fury.

Stephen Strange received them both cordially and kindly.

"Is something wrong?"

"Trouble, I'm looking for Alicia Heath," Fury said.

"She's not here." Strange said lightly.S.H.I.E.L.D. agreed to Tony's use of Alicia as a bait last time. He hasn't forgotten it yet, so he won't give the director a good look.

Fury smiled and glanced at Tony.

Tony had no choice but to say, "It's about the ancient ruins."

Strange snorted, "How about the agents you sent?"

"Stuck on the last level."

Strange glanced at Fury, "If you asked my opinion in advance, I would not suggest that you send someone in, but of course, people like you will not consider other people's opinions and suggestions. Mr. Stark, You shouldn't be working with an agency like S.H.I.E.L.D."

Tony looked a little tired, "I know. But sometimes, you have to learn to compromise."

Strange raised his eyebrows, "I can't believe it's what you said."

"I'm an American citizen."

"Civic duty?" Strange smiled mockingly, "Alicia is really not here, she has gone to Kathmandu. Please remember, you are an American citizen, she is not."

"But she will definitely be interested in Strack's plan." Fury is very confident.

"Not always."

"Dr. Strange, please contact her and ask her opinion." Tony said.

Strange couldn't help laughing at him, "Now you know to ask her opinion first?"

Having said that, I still took out my mobile phone and dialed Kathmandu.

Alicia's voice sounded, "Stephen?"

"SHIELD is looking for you."

"who is it?"

Fury: "It's me, Nick Fury."

"Is something wrong?"

"Ancient ruins in Iceland where Agent Clint Barton is trapped."

Alicia snorted, "You should have thought of this possibility before sending someone in."

Fury frowned deeply, "I thought about it, but we can't shrink back just because we have difficulties."

"Yeah, you people always think that money and power are omnipotent, but in fact, you just can't if you can't. Are you looking for me to rescue Agent Patton?"

"Yes. Can you? Please help S.H.I.E.L.D." The words were quite humble.

"I'll ask for it."

"Please make your request, if I can."

After a long silence, she said: "Every time you come to beg me to do something for you or S.H.I.E.L.D., you have to pay a huge amount of money. The form of payment is up to me. I have some private collections. You need someone to Help me sell all of this collection and I'll give you a reserve price but no commission; I'm going to buy a lot in midtown Manhattan about the size of the Stark Tower, paid for from the proceeds from the sale of the private collection Spending. That's all for this time."

Fury agreed quite readily, "Deal. Give me time to go through the formalities."

"1 hours."

"no problem."

"Call me when you're done." She hung up the phone.

Regarding Alicia's leisurely blackmailing of S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony Stark said that it's been a long time.He has almost never gained the upper hand when dealing with Nick Fury. Fury, a cunning old man, is not an easy person to deal with. With power, money and nearly unlimited government resources in his hands, this kind of person has a kind of "everything is under control" The pride of "China" does not allow others to refute and raise conditions.

Therefore, the situation of Agent Patton must be very critical, but Fury is still calm and calm on the surface.

She has already emailed the list of her private collections, all of which are famous masterpieces that have disappeared during World War II, including various paintings and jewelry. These paintings and jewelry belonged to the wealthy Jewish people who were confiscated by the Nazis. It is said that these treasures were either buried in unknown warehouses, or were taken to Moscow by the Soviet army, but none of the treasures on the list have appeared in Russia for many years, so the Soviets may be inertial again Alright.

Tony looked at the list of less than 100 lines, and Asimov pointed out the time and place where these items last appeared in his earphones, as well as the market price—basically they all had prices but no market.

Tony, Strange, and Fury were not very surprised by this list: it is normal to think that she spent many years in Nazi Germany and collected some loot in the chaos before the Allied forces invaded Berlin.The items on this list have no heirs, that is, there are no ownership disputes, and it will not be difficult to sell. Tony himself has a desire to buy a few of them.

Alicia has never shown a strong material desire, probably because she is considered a real rich man, so she does not have a strong desire for money and extravagant consumption.

Fury quickly picked out a few paintings in exchange for a piece of Manhattan land that served as a back-up safe house.

Half an hour later, a real estate lawyer came and brought the title documents.

Called Alicia again, "Hello, Miss Heath, I have brought the real estate title documents, and I will wait for you to come back and sign for the transfer."

She replied, "Wait a minute, I'm going to Switzerland."

Fury froze: "What?"

She has hung up the phone.

Fury stared at his only right eye, "What does she mean? I know she can return to New York, Switzerland soon from Kathmandu? I don't have a day to wait for her to come back." know.

"It won't take a day, she will be back soon."

More than half an hour later, Alicia came out of the portal in Kathmandu, handed a large wooden box to the waiter at the side, and then walked to the hall, "This is the first batch."

When Fury saw her come in, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and signaled a staff behind him to step forward to hand over the large wooden box.

The lawyer opened the briefcase and took out the property rights documents, which Fury and Alicia signed respectively.

"There won't be any legal problems?" she asked casually.

"Absolutely not."

"Humans are such a hassle," she said dryly.

Put down the pen, the lawyer confirms the signature, and collects the documents.

"The lawyer will take care of the next procedure, and you can get the new property rights documents within 24 hours." Fury didn't want to ask her what she was going to do with the land, anyway, nothing could hide from his eyes.

"Ready to go?" he urged.

She glanced at him, "Don't worry. Time passes at a different speed inside. Where did they go?"

"The last hurdle."

She raised her eyebrows: It's pretty fast, probably less than two months.It seems that the professionally trained agents are super powerful.

Then I seemed to see Tony Stark on the side, "Tony."

"Alicia."

She tilted her head slightly and looked at him for a while, "You seem to be in a bad state of mind."

Tony forced a smile.

"Has the trouble with S.H.I.E.L.D. been resolved?"

"I don't know, maybe."

Fury was speechless: Is it okay to slap your face in public?

"What about your troubles? Are you done?"

"Basically. But you know, there's always someone up for a challenge."

"Of course, who's calling you a billionaire? Who is Steve Rogers? Nobody wants to care, people just know him as 'Captain America' and Iron Man is Tony Stark, that's different. "

Tony stared at the Wulu bracelet on her wrist, "Do you like it?" He pointed.

"I like it very much, it works very well."

"I think you don't like any carvings, so you didn't get any moldings."

"No need." The Wulu bracelet is a simple, smooth, thin bracelet.

Fury didn't press her again.

She prepared some items and told Stephen Strange about Karma Taj.

"Originally, the king planned to take me to the London Temple, which was being rebuilt there. He wanted me to practice the magic I have now."

Strange nodded, indicating that he understood. "Are you going in by yourself? Either I or Stark can accompany you in."

"Need not."

He hesitated for a moment: "Be careful. Except for unknown circumstances, don't trust the people of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"I know."

He looked at her intently: "You seem to have changed a little bit, have you grown up again?"

"Maybe." She looked down at herself: her breasts seemed to grow a little bit again, and the growth rate was a bit scary.

The height has also increased a bit, from 5 feet 3 inches to the current 5 feet 5 inches.

"I hope it doesn't grow too fast. Peter is not yet 16 years old, and I can be around his age." She thought for a while, "It seems that it would be more fun if the age gap between couples is not too big."

Tony stood outside the door and knocked, "Are you ready?"

Strange thought that Tony might want to have a few words with Alicia alone, and walked away knowingly.

Being alone with her, I don't know what to say.

But he is the well-known playboy Tony Stark, there is nothing he can't talk about.

"Peter Parker? You like him?"

"Okay."

"Where's Tommy Keelan? Where's Pietro Maximoff?"

"Didn't you say that you would let me experience the life of an ordinary girl? Of course, girls of my age would like boys who are good-looking and cute."

Tony murmured to himself: It's really all right!

"Next time, don't let that mutant child go to the Avengers Building. Next time, Asimov will target him and ask Charles to lead him. You don't know that if Charles starts talking about it, no one can bear it." .” So Eric Lanshere would often be narrated by him to go berserk.

She glanced at him and said nothing.

It seems that there is nothing to say.

"Be careful." In the end, he had no choice but to say dryly: "Don't trust the people of S.H.I.E.L.D., even Barton, don't trust him too much."

She put on her backpack, "Tony."

"Ok?"

"It's okay." She smiled.

"Are you not angry?"

She shrugged, "It's been a long time since I was angry." In fact, there is no anger until now. Powerful people usually don't care much about other people's thoughts and actions, because they are overwhelmed by strength, so they are fearless.

He was relieved.

Nick Fury took Alicia away from the temple and went to an apartment not far away.

He brought back the object used by Strack from the No.13 warehouse. There were several staff members in the apartment who fixed the object on the floor. It looked like two slender sticks.

"I won't go in, only you will go in." Fury said, "You will be teleported to Agent Patton immediately."

"Okay." With a cold expression, she stepped between the two sticks.

She disappeared.

Peter Parker was depressed.

Alicia said she was going to Nepal for a month, but they called each other every day, sent each other a lot of text messages, rounded up to see each other almost every day, and suddenly, without saying anything, she disappeared.

I didn't answer the phone, I didn't reply to the text messages, I went to Brick Street to find her, and Dr. Strange said that she had gone out and hadn't returned.

He was sullen, and not even working on the Lego Death Star with Ned could cheer him up.

Ned also asked Alicia every time, and he was tired of asking, so he said she had gone to Los Angeles.Mr. Stark was not in New York recently, but went to Los Angeles.

Oh, Mr. Stark stopped by his house before he left New York.

But Mei Xihan was very disappointed, wondering how he knew his silly nephew.

The living environment of the Parker family apartment is not very good, very ordinary. Ben Parker is an officer in the U.S. Army with an ordinary income;

Mr. Stark praised May's culinary skills very much, and made her very happy.Peter once feared that he would die from May's dark cooking, but fortunately this did not happen.

Oh, and the most important point is that although Mr. Stark still didn't mention Alicia, he promised to create a brand new spider suit for him, which made Peter very excited.

Ned didn't know his alter ego yet, so his excitement wasn't shared, and it suffocated him, and he was preoccupied with Alicia's return so he could share it with her.

As a result, after the spring break, she still hadn't come back.

On the contrary, he often went to Brick Street, and he was already getting along well with Dr. Strange, and the two of them were free to play chess or something.

Oh, and met a mutant named Pietro.

Pietro was more than a year older than him, not yet 1, and wasn't very nice to him, but that was okay, probably because he was a good kid at heart.

"Our names are very similar, and my classmates call me 'Piet'." Pietro said with a smile when they met for the first time.

It's pretty close to "Peter".

"I'm a lot like Alicia too, we're both mutants," he added.

Peter understood in seconds: Alicia's kind.

But he doesn't realize that Pietro harbors a secret jealousy for him.

Strange looked at the two teenagers very interestingly: one was ignorant and the other had ulterior motives, but as long as they didn't fight in the temple, he wouldn't say a word more.

When Alicia came back, it was already the end of April.

Still in the apartment near the Temple, a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent appears first, then others, with a large rectangular wooden box, then Clint Barton, and finally Alicia.

Nick Fury was away, and Natasha stayed in the apartment.Seeing that Clint came out first, I was very relieved, "Clint."

Clint's face was ashen and muddy, "Hello, Cortana."

Alicia followed.

"Alicia!" even more delighted.

"Hello, Natasha." She was also dirty with dust and mud on her face.

"Just come back, I'm really worried about you."

Clint yelled, "Aren't you worried about me?"

Natasha smiled and said, "I know you'll be fine, troublesome guys live long."

The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents on the side were already bundling and packing the rectangular wooden box, moving it downstairs, and loading it into a truck for transport.

"I'm very tired, I have to go back to the temple to rest. By the way, what date is it today?"

"November 4."

"Fortunately, I stayed in it - 70 days."

"I'll take you there." Natasha took the wet wipe, lifted her chin, and wiped her face, "You can't go back in such a dirty state, Dr. Strange sees your face like this, you must Will complain that I can't even wipe your face well." She made a face, "He hurts people and makes people faint with shame."

Smart people's language ability is really terrible, and they are merciless in sarcasm, no less than Tony.Bruce Banner and Hank McCoy, while smart, aren't quite as relentless.So this trait is really innate.

The dirt on Alicia's face was wiped off, revealing her original face.

"You seem—" Natasha said uncertainly, "You've changed, a little different from the last time I saw you." The last time she saw Alicia was at the end of December last year.

"Maybe I've grown up." Alicia didn't care much.Her development speed is a little faster than that of ordinary teenagers, but it's okay, within her acceptable range.

"You need to take a good shower. Oh, Commissioner Fury wants me to tell you that half the items on the list have been sold, and you remember to check your bank account. Some other items are not easy to find buyers. Tony buys A few, Norman Osborn, Worthington II, Dr. Pym also bought a few, and Eric Lanshere bought a dozen, he said they were Jewish assets , so the current price cannot be given.”
