[Comprehensive Anglo-American] Gem Merchant

Ultimately, the potions are lost to the coercion and inducement of an unnamed superhero.

On some key issues, Tony and Steve reached a rare agreement. If it weren't for the fact that they don't know how these drugs will affect the body of ordinary people, Steve would even want to take a few sips to demonstrate up.

In this regard, Alphonse: "..."

If possible, he really wants to block his sense of taste. After all, closing the five senses is not a profound technique. Most magicians who can be called "Lord" can do it, but this will affect the efficacy of the drug. Effect - the pain caused by these medicines is also part of the healing process.

This involves the category of witch doctor. In addition to the biological characteristics of medicinal herbs, the additional "pain" brought to the body, and the indestructibility and unblocking of the magic circuit born from it, are the effects of the formation of magical medicine. one ring.

If it weren't for so many people surrounding him, if it wasn't for Steve simply pressing him in the wheelchair, if it wasn't for Tony Stark trying to pry his mouth open... well, the last one didn't happen, Tony Although Stark himself made such preparations, he just stared at the opponent for a while as if he was facing an enemy, and Alphonse sighed long, lowered his eyes and surrendered.

Clinton Barton did not participate in this farce. He sat on the sofa far away and raised his eyes to look carefully at the alchemist in the wheelchair. Under the attention of everyone, the other party showed a somewhat helpless expression, and then closed his eyes like a strong man broke his wrist Gudu Gudu drank several sips, then strangled his throat to prevent himself from spitting it out on the spot.

Steve doesn't even know where to find a few fruit candies to encourage - man, this is so un-Captain America.

He still remembered the exclamation from Loki, the god of trickery, on the day of his mission.

"Don't rely too much on a monster in human skin..."

In the department store that was completely under martial law, the green-eyed god expressed such emotion that the other party returned to Asgard by means that could not be explained on earth, leaving many mysteries for S.H.I.E.L.D. .

A whole team of S.H.I.E.L.D. was studying Alphonse himself, from behavioral habits to personality building, and the other party didn't seem to resist such observations and visits, and even later agreed to put an agent by his side to do the research. Handyman, and according to the analysis conclusions of those intelligence, although Alphonse seems to be easy to get along with, in theory, he should definitely not give in to his choice because of anyone.

"I've made up my mind to do it."

More often, the other party just looked at Fury with a smiling but determined expression, and then solved the problem on his own. Although the alchemist's methods are decisive and efficient, this style always makes people It feels too difficult to approach—even if the other party is such a polite person.

In the field of vision, Steve Rogers was nagging and emphasizing the "importance of taking medicine on time", while Tony Stark was very eager to encourage Al Feng Si stood up from the wheelchair and took two steps.

There is no medicine that can work just after drinking it... Clint rolled his eyes deep in his heart, and touched the remote control to open the ventilation system in the room even more.

He has read the reports on Alphonse, and compared to Steve, who has never been an agent but came from the army, he is much more sensitive to these non-combat information, even a year ago, it is estimated that No one dared to act in front of this thunder-crafted gem lord, let alone force him to drink medicine, do rehabilitation training, and listen to the teaching video of the live-action version of Captain America.

Maybe that's why Fury's been working on bringing Alphonse closer to the Avengers, he thought, though Fury probably didn't think Stark himself would be so effective in the first place.

Alphonse put one hand on the armrest of the wheelchair and the other on the outstretched arm of the steel suit, and actually took two staggering steps forward.There are marks of magic circuits on his arms, and his eyes are gradually turning into magic eyes. The overlapping colors of blue and green are flowing back and forth in the pupils. When the other party blinks hard, the phosphorescent brilliance is gone again. Disappeared in the pupil.

After only two steps, the jeweler sat back on the wheelchair and refused to move again.

"...it will hurt."

After a while, he popped out a few words in the eager and worried eyes of everyone: "The effect of this medicine will forcibly clear the stagnant magic circuit. The side effect is a temporary disorder of magic power. Concurrent reactions, the magic power in this state will become a little difficult to control..."

Everyone's expressions suddenly turned serious again, so the blond jeweler had to add again: "Just keep resting, all the symptoms are normal reactions now, Strange's magic talent is very good, and he can't do magic tricks." The wrong medicine comes out."

It was a strange feeling, Alphonse thought.

Regarding the side effects of potions and the knowledge of occultism, Gem Unzelrich is obviously a master of his knowledge reserve. During the time when he was a magic apprentice with Zellich, he naturally didn't need to explain it to anyone Such an ordinary problem; both Animsfia and El-Melloi II are monarch-level magicians, regardless of personal strength, in terms of the accumulation of mystic knowledge, there is no need to worry about the use of this ordinary drug. Concerned about drug efficacy.

As for the rest of the "extensive friendships"... Loki, the god of trickery, said more than once that human life is too short, and finding a way to live for a few hundred years is better than nothing, whether it is the God of Asa or Atlantis Sri Lankan people, they all have a clear sense of boundaries, belong to the relationship of win-win cooperation, and will definitely not interfere in each other's private affairs.

And at this moment, he was watched by many pairs of eyes.

"Hey, I mean, I have a science and technology exhibition that I need to show up tomorrow, and I originally wanted to invite you to go with me, in order to make the process less boring..."

Tony Stark walked out of the steel suit, and observed the jeweler's expression from top to bottom - after all, he has the deepest understanding after switching bodies, and the threshold that can make that guy feel pain is placed on the threshold of ordinary people. It is estimated that the body can make people go crazy - after confirming that the other party really just needs to rest, he shrugged: "You have lost a good opportunity to learn more about Stark Industries, after all, I remember you bought Stark Industries before. bought a batch of my stock."

——The profit from stock trading is very small for Alphonse, but I don't know why the other party is inexplicably obsessed with this.

"Since the effect of this drug is so obvious, the rehabilitation training can also be stopped for a while."

Steve even regrets that his rehab manual hasn't been used much.

"Hey, gentlemen."

Pepper finally couldn't help clapping his hands, attracting everyone's attention: "Perhaps I haven't emphasized it again, Mr. Alphonse needs to go with me to finalize the magic layout of Stark Industries' new factory building tomorrow? "

Steve immediately looked at Stark reproachfully with the eyes of "you actually squeezed the labor force to let the patient go to work".The latter immediately began to distance himself when he caught sight of it: "This is not my decision! And I didn't know the effect of this drug could be so violent!"

"It was originally scheduled to be tomorrow, and I have already made an appointment with Miss Potts."

Alphonse calmed down with a gentle attitude: "And it's just putting down the prepared gemstones in the right place, there is no need to pry the magic power, they are all pre-reserved things."

The blond alchemist never lied, so everyone believed the other's promise.The magic power is surging in the circuit, restless every second, Alphonse closed his eyes again, he is not used to this state where the magic power may get out of control anytime and anywhere, but the feeling of being surrounded by people can always Calm him unexpectedly.

After many years, he is still being "watched", but the owner of these gazes is much warmer than the fairies in Fairy Township, especially a pair of warm brown eyes that will never look away no matter how much they refuse .

Under the gaze of those eyes, the waves of magic calm down.

The next day.

New York City, Convention Center.

Peter Parker was looking forward to this science and technology exhibition, and collected a lot of relevant information a week in advance.He and Ned bought the admission tickets early on. It's great that the student ID card for high school students can be discounted. All the children seemed a little bit cash-strapped.

"Which exhibition area do you plan to see first?"

Ned chewed on the licorice and asked, "I'm interested in the new hover car."

"Of course, let's go to see the steel suit that was made public first!"

Peter Parker's expression sparkled: "It is said that there is still a chance to shake hands with it!"

"There is also the display of the Ark Reactor... Generally speaking, this is the core secret of an enterprise, right?!"

Ned looked at the index brochure in his hand and said in surprise.

"Probably because I feel confident that no one else can imitate anyway..."

Peter Parker followed with a sigh, and then his eyes were attracted by something else novel.

Not only them, but also everyone else present.

Tony Stark always seems to have this charisma that makes everyone focus on him.Even if he took the approach of shutting down the arms research and development department that everyone thought was very "dead", it still did not prevent Stark Industries from restarting in less than a year when the stock price fell by more than 50%. It's booming.

Now almost no one pays attention to arms anymore, except those "nostalgic" media people - new energy development projects and various new equipment have successfully triggered a new craze. Think about it, nuclear power reactors are not only used in On hair equipment like nuclear submarines, the use of nuclear energy is not limited to those large nuclear power plants, as long as a small piece the size of a palm, you can get the same power source as Iron Man—you can even install it on anything— — including a wheelchair capable of traveling at speeds up to 40km/h.

Under the eyes of everyone, Iron Man dragged Huiwei down from the sky, and opened his hands to the cheering audience, as if embracing the future of a new era.

Stealing the holy fire from Prometheus, Watt improved the steam engine, and Tesla brought thunder and lightning from the authority of the gods to the world. Now almost no one does not believe that the mustache businessman in front of him has a brand new revolution in his hands.

The cheers gathered into waves, and Peter Parker blushed with excitement, standing among the crowd and waving desperately.

He stared eagerly at Tony Stark in the center of the spotlight, almost screaming like a fan meeting, but he waved his hand halfway, and a spine-chilling feeling suddenly invaded the bone marrow.

"what happened?"

Ned was a little surprised: "Do you feel uncomfortable? To be honest...the expression on your face is nothing serious."

"I think I'm in trouble."

The boy took his little friend and ran to the laundry room: "My spider sensor has never made a mistake."

"Are you kidding me? It's Iron Man's technology exhibition at the scene, and there are many bodyguards with live ammunition outside!"

Having said that, Ned still restrained his expression and walked away with Peter Parker.

New York City, suburbs, a construction site.

The factory building has been roughly built, and some important equipment will be handed over here next week.

"Probably in this place, a piece of empty spar is buried."

Alphonse manipulated the wheelchair and said to Pepper: "Buried in the wall, it can resist most magic-level curses."

Pepper nodded and made a mark on the drawing.

The jeweler seemed to be very serious. When encountering uncertain places, he would even take out a pendulum to do simple divination to determine the best arrangement of gemstones. Pepper followed behind with the document in his hand, and couldn't help but read it for a long time. Sigh: "I never thought that one day I would go to the Stark Industries factory with the alchemist in the storybook like this."

In order to abide by the confidentiality principle of magic, today she deliberately dismissed all the workers present.

"I also find it a bit unbelievable."

Alphonse said softly, "It seems like unconsciously..."

As if unknowingly, a cavity of hot blood was poured into the ice cube, and the blood seeped into the cracked cracks. Before you noticed it, various red ruts appeared from the inside.

Playing with the gemstone that Pepper couldn't name in her bony fingers, the female secretary looked at the jeweler calmly. At first, she thought that maybe this person could make her boss less worrying. The director of the bureau can rest assured and rely on the alchemist no matter how reliable he looks, but it turns out that under the calm shell of the other party is a soul that is no more worrying than Tony Stark.

That's why it's really hard to say just right... She shrugged and followed behind the other party: "According to the project plan submitted by the construction party, we plan to set up baseboard grooves here..."

The suburbs of New York City are quiet, and there are only the two of them left in the factory building, so empty that even when they speak, there is a slight echo.The wheels of the wheelchair have been specially treated for noise reduction, so apart from the low-pitched conversations, the only sound that can be heard in the entire factory area is the footsteps of Pepper's high-heeled shoes.

In such an environment, the sound of the wall being blown up suddenly is particularly harsh—or, even if the factory is still operating, such a scene is shocking enough.

Pepper turned her head nervously, even under such circumstances, she subconsciously showed a majestic and fearless expression.

Taking a closer look, Pepper Potts showed a somewhat surprised expression—she was no stranger to this person, and even that face was familiar to her.

"—Killian?"

The other party even had time to smile at Pepper, with a calmness on his face that he hadn't seen a few years ago.Adric Killian showed a calm expression at the two of them. He waved his arm, and he punched a big hole in the outer wall of the factory building made of reinforced concrete: "Relax, ladies and gentlemen. , and if what I'm trying to show shocks you, it's too soon."

"After all, this is to repay a gift to Stark many years ago-to him once arrogant and arrogant."

Although it was very impolite, Alphonse sighed when the other party gave a speech.

——How many people has Tony Stark offended?
