Earth Raiders progress report [comprehensive British and American]

After Peter and Strange crossed the magic circle, they met unexpected Enterprise acquaintances.

Although Strange has made a mark on Joshua, they are not friendly after all, and it doesn't matter if they don't appear directly in front of Joshua like last time. , I am afraid that another reformer will come forward to fight them in the next second.

So Strange is positioned a little distance away from Joshua, but he has never been to this time and space after all, and he is not sure whether there will be other dangers at this coordinate.

Logically speaking, the vicinity of Joshua should be the stronghold of these reformers, and the crew of the Enterprise still surprised them, but both Peter and Strange came to this time and space for the first time, and they could not tell the difference. Find out which faction this place belongs to.

Not only were the two different time and space people surprised, but Jim and the others were also surprised by the appearance of the two Avengers here. Regardless of how these two people came here, it is difficult to figure out why they came here.

"Joshua didn't say he broke up with me, so he's still my boyfriend." The young hero, still in everyday attire, said, "Of course I'm here for my boyfriend."

This reason made Jim and Chekov look at Peter complicatedly. Although they didn't see Joshua stabbing each other, the subsequent development was quite obvious. The two were already in different positions and camps. Said, can not help but feel that this idea is very dangerous.

In contrast, the Supreme Master's statement is much more official and serious, "Your world does not have hell, but our world does. Joshua is prone to chaos if he leaves hell for too long."

This reason is very sufficient. In fact, Joshua's identity as the king of hell also caused Jim and the others a headache. What Joshua inherited was not only the jurisdiction over hell, but also the power of the king of hell. Although this world does not have Hell, but it didn't weaken the opponent's strength at all. It would be very troublesome just to transform the existence of people, let alone have another supernatural power.

So if this mage can bring Joshua back, it will indeed relieve them of a lot of burden, which will be beneficial to both parties, but according to the Khan’s emphasis on Joshua, if anything happens to Joshua, the last time he agreed What can the other party do if Shuya is missing, this time it won't be any better.

If you think about it this way, if Joshua went back voluntarily, the problem would be solved. Could this be the reason why Peter appeared here?

Captain Kirk, who only knew that Joshua was dangerous to transform people, and had no idea of ​​the anti-social personality of the other party, gradually felt that he could understand why these two people came.

Chekov didn't know about Joshua's lack of feelings, but he knew one thing. Seeing that the two parties seemed to have reached a cooperation agreement, he stopped Peter with some worry.

"I don't know if you know about this, but I think I should remind you in advance." The young navigator said this, and Peter was also a little worried with his solemn look, "You know that reforming people is excellent in mind. in the existence of ordinary people."

Peter nodded, "I know."

After learning about Cassidio, the new god, Peter has fully realized how terrible his boyfriend is mentally, and the young Russian crew added, "And this thing is like Sherlock Holmes." geniuses can do it."

This made Peter a little puzzled as to what Chekov wanted to say, "You mean to say..."

"It's very simple and complete for them to remove a person from their minds."

Seeing the hero from different time and space, he didn’t seem to know what to say for a while, but the navigator who still had his hometown accent explained, “After I met Joshua again in your world, I had another relationship with him. A conversation, because I felt he was a lot colder with me this time than before, so I asked him that."

"Did I ask you if you want to be family with me?" Joshua asked him after hearing the question.

During the time when Joshua was living on the Enterprise, the other party did ask him this question, but Chekhov still had the idea of ​​becoming a lover with Joshua at that time, and subconsciously thought that the knight from ancient England asked him. He asked this question because he wanted to become a relative with him, so he refused hesitantly, "Yes, I..."

"You must have rejected me at that time." Joshua took the navigator's words, making Chekov feel inexplicably guilty.

People who come to a strange time and space want to have a family to find a sense of security. Asking him this question must be enough trust in him, but he refuses because of his own petty thoughts, and this kind of trust may be because of his own evil intentions Formed in close proximity.

Joshua ignored what Chekhov was thinking, and only continued: "So in order to prevent me from thinking that you might be able to become a family member again, I let my brain delete some information about you."

Maybe Chekhov didn't quite understand what Joshua's logic was, and thought that Joshua made such a self-setting because he hurt the other party's heart, but Peter understood it when he heard this.

Of course, Joshua has no feelings, but when he asks a person if he wants to be his family, it means that this person is different from others in his logic. Since the other party refuses, then this difference It will only become a hidden danger. He can't guarantee whether he will be touched and experience feelings one day. The principle of self-protection makes him delete this difference in order to prevent these possibilities.

In other words, in the eyes of Joshua, the current Peter is probably no different from other ordinary people, and with the other party’s cautious logic, even though there are various marks on this person to prevent inconvenience, he will never be different from him. Would think that this person has any particularity anymore.

This is not so good news, but from some angles, he feels a kind of secret and undeserved gratitude for what Chekov missed. If Chekov proposed a relationship like him at that time There is no guarantee that Joshua will not agree to the other party's request at that time, so maybe there will be nothing about him later.

"Is it still according to the plan?" Strange also heard the conversation between the two, so he couldn't help but confirm it with the young junior.

Peter didn't hesitate much, and quickly nodded, "En."

It is true that the information Chekhov disclosed made it much more difficult to capture Joshua, but he did not come with the absolute hope of success in his plan, so he had to try no matter what.

Chekhov's reminder is justified.

Because when he and Joshua met again, the other person looked at him no differently from the way they looked at other people, but in fact, Joshua may not have looked at himself differently before. What was really different was Joshua. What Ya said when she saw him.

"I know you," he said, "Spider-Man, Peter Parker."

It was as if neither of them had any deep connection before.

His boyfriend was different today, not in terms of expressionlessness and indifference after giving up any pretense, but this time his boyfriend was finally not wearing a suit like before.

He is wearing military uniform.

Peter guessed that it was probably the same style as Joshua in the 20th century. Although Khan was brutal and arrogant as a reformer, his aesthetics were normal. Therefore, the young man with short brown hair was wearing a well-tailored pure black military uniform, which looked better than when he was wearing a suit. More abstinent.

This is obviously not a combat style, and they didn't meet each other on the battlefield, but this inconvenience may not make any difference to Joshua. Before becoming the king of hell, the two of them may still have a good fight, Now that Joshua has inherited this position, he can be wiped out with a snap of his fingers.

"Joshua." Peter said. At this moment, he couldn't see the enthusiasm and liveliness of a good neighbor in New York.

The reformed person whose name was called waited for a while, and after confirming that the other party seemed to have nothing to say, he asked, "What are you doing in my room?"

In fact, this is not exactly his room, because it is just a residence arranged by the Interstellar Federation after they controlled it. They didn't have their own house in this era, and Joshua didn't care how Khan got them. .

Hearing this question, Peter sat down by the window sill he came in, and then spread his hands, "Can you treat it as... um... cheating?"

"I know we used to be lovers." Joshua didn't seem to react at all to what the other party said, and his tone was cold, "But it's not now."

Having said that, the young man in military uniform took a few steps towards the hero from another time and space, as if he was thinking about something, "To be on the safe side, maybe I should kill you now."

"Well, this still makes me a little sad." Peter slumped his shoulders and got down from the window sill, "But you've already stabbed me."

Joshua was noncommittal about this. Normally, he should have killed the other party to be safer. After all, Peter was probably here to defeat him, but logically speaking, the other party did not need to go to this time and space so much, so The purpose of Peter's appearance here still confuses him, because in his cognition, Spider-Man is not the kind of guy who strenuously crosses time and space just to stab back.

Thinking so, Joshua still asked when he spoke again: "Are you here to kill me?"

This question seemed to startle Peter, "No, oh my God, of course not...why do you always think that the relationship between us will only be a life-and-death relationship?"

Joshua obviously felt inaccurate about Peter's statement, "If I wanted you to die, you wouldn't be able to stand here and talk to me now."

"Actually, if you really want me to die, I don't really mind." Facing the young man's puzzled gaze, the young hero lowered his eyes, "I did the worst when I decided to come to you Ready, so I'll be able to live with that outcome."

"Looks like you have old feelings for me." The new Lord of Hell finally judged, speaking as if one of the parties involved was not himself.

But before Peter could say anything, there was already an alarm indicating that there was an enemy invasion. Joshua glanced at Peter, and after making sure that the other party's purpose was not to divert his attention to make the enemy invade, he walked out of the room.

The level of the alert shows that the enemy this time is very difficult. This is not a common situation for them at present, which means that the opponent is either foreign aid from other planets, or foreign aid from other time and space. After all, Spider-Man is not random. The ability to travel across time and space, and he more or less remembered that Strange once said that he would mark everyone he knew.

If it is the Supreme Mage, then the situation is indeed not that simple.

On the other side, Peter, who came out of the room after Joshua, ran into the same Khan who came.
