"I still think we shouldn't come here, Tony." Standing in front of the door of the New York Sanctuary again, Steve looked at Tony beside him, planning to persuade him again.
After experiencing a night that changed his destiny in 1943, Steve Rogers felt a lot of emotion when he saw himself walking into the recruiting tent again and being selected by Dr. Erskine again.
Now looking back at the past, it was really hard for him to imagine how he had persisted.
At that time, I was so thin that I could fall over when pushed. It was like a combination of severe malnutrition and insufficient food. Compared with my tall and strong friend Bucky, I was simply his little follower.
He had to rely on Bucky's care all year round to avoid being bullied. Even when he met a girl, he had to be taken care of by Bucky and would be disliked in various ways.
It would be fine if that was all it was, but being rejected for enlisting in the army five times in a row, watching everyone around me go to the battlefield while I was always disliked and left behind, the frustration and frustration are unimaginable and unimaginable.
Resistant.
Others may have tried once or twice, and then given up after two or three times. Only I have been working tirelessly to find a way to pass the recruitment examination and become a real soldier on the battlefield.
Even though he knew that with his physical condition at that time, it would be impossible for him to pass the recruitment review, unless everyone on the front line was really dead, he would only consider letting a guy like him who can't hold a gun stably go to the battlefield.
However, Steve has a tenacity. Even though he was rejected repeatedly, he still did not give up and kept trying to pass the certification review by forging resumes.
He didn't want to stay in the rear like a spectator while everyone, even just a child, was working hard for this war and doing what they could, watching others bleed and die on the battlefield.
Just like his famous saying "I could spend all day", Steve Rogers never seems to know what giving up is.
Perhaps it was his tenacity that allowed him to win the favor of Dr. Erskine, eventually becoming a candidate for the super soldier program and becoming Captain America.
So even though he was thrown back to this era by Chen Mo when he was almost confused, Steve Rogers still thought about how to pass Chen Mo's test instead of taking advantage of opportunities.
This is like an orthodox RPG player. When encountering a puzzle, he thinks about how to solve it instead of just kicking the door open.
But this is too stupid for the genius Tony Stark. He has never been a rule-abiding person since he was a child, and he is also not a guy who follows the routines designed by others.
After being thrown into this world by Chen Mo, Tony was just as confused and confused as Steve, but he quickly activated some of his smartest minds even in the Marvel world.
The little head on his head was thinking and analyzing everything he encountered.
After a night of observation and careful thinking, Tony confirmed that he had indeed not been subjected to hallucinations or other possible means, and that he and Steve had indeed been thrown back to 1943 with a high probability.
But Tony is not sure whether this is 1943 in the timeline he is in, or 1943 in another timeline in the parallel universe.
If it is the former, there will be a time paradox, because everything they do may change the future or even erase their own existence.
For example, in the simplest way, if he had just put on the Iron Man armor and killed Howard with a palm cannon at the expo last night, then there would have been no birth of Tony Stark, let alone the birth of Captain America, or even
The future history of the United States will be greatly affected.
After all, in the movie line of the Marvel world, Howard participated in the Manhattan Project.
But if it's a timeline in a parallel universe, it doesn't matter, because no matter what you do, you can't affect your own timeline.
But Tony didn't do that.
On the one hand, of course, it is due to the existence of Steve Rogers. No matter how much he dislikes this old popsicle, he is also a famous legendary hero in history, and he has proved his ability in the previous Battle of New York. If
If Tony acts recklessly, his biggest enemy will be this righteous man of God.
Even Tony Stark is not sure that he can defeat Steve Rogers who has picked up the shield, especially in this era where there is neither the Internet nor a huge Stark group for him to drive, even if he has
There is no way any genius can build a steel suit capable of defeating Steve Rogers in this era.
The reason is also very simple, simple industrial production capacity cannot keep up.
It may be close to making a Mark 1 prototype, but it is beyond the power to make the latest model of steel suit. In this era, we can't even make a titanium alloy shell, let alone those made entirely by Tony Stark.
Purely handmade precision parts.
But for Tony, he doesn't need to use these methods to break the situation.
After a night of collecting information and thinking carefully, he discovered a detail, that is, when she was in front of Ancient One before, she said that she had been guarding the world as the Supreme Mage for hundreds of years.
So if there are no accidents, the Supreme Mage of Ancient One also exists at this point in time.
In other words, the place he visited should also exist at this point in time. At that time, he carefully observed and investigated the building. It seemed to be one of the oldest buildings in New York history, and its history can even be traced back.
Before New York was founded.
So he took Steve and came here again after trying to survive a bowl.
And things were just as he thought. The New York Sanctuary still stands on the streets of New York in this era, and even the address has not changed.
This undoubtedly greatly enhanced Tony Stark's confidence and made him feel that he had found the key to breaking the situation.
Tony has always believed that there is not only one solution to a problem, and the guy who solves the problem along the lines of the question maker is a symbol of lack of creativity and thinking.
Really smart people like him always find new ways to solve problems.
Just like now, what is an easier way to break the situation than to find the Ancient One Master of this era and ask her to help him send himself back to the original timeline?
Even if the Ancient Master of this era refuses, he can at least get some help from her, and there will be no loss no matter what.
However, after Tony knocked on the door of the New York Sanctuary, the person who opened the door was still the fat man with an oriental face that they had seen before, and he didn't even change the person. The fat mage looked at Tony and the embarrassed Steve beside him.
The husband said: "The Supreme Mage hopes that the two of you will accept the test seriously instead of trying to take advantage of the situation, and the New York Sanctuary has been stripped from the timeline by the god. Whenever you knock on this door, the one who opens the door will be
I.
And every time you come here, the New York Sanctuary will be pulled back to the timeline, which means that time will start flowing again in the New York Sanctuary, and the longer it will take for you to pass this test."
After saying that, the fat mage seemed to think that the other party might not understand what he said, so he added another explanation: "The above words were said by the god. To put it in more understandable words, it means that it will cost you to accept the test now.
The time will not be reflected on the original timeline, that is, from the time you left to the time you returned, the original timeline may only have passed for a moment.
But if you want to cheat and knock on the door of the New York Sanctuary, then time will flow again, that is, the time you spent in the New York Sanctuary will be added between your departure and your return. I explain it this way and you understand.
?”
"I understood it the first time you said it." Tony Stark felt humiliated, but he couldn't get angry. He could only ask helplessly: "That means we can't get any help.
Really?"
"That's not true. The god said that if you are willing to say 'thank you', he can give you a little extra help." The fat mage was not too unkind, so he explained to Tony: "That one
The gods know that you may have neither money nor legal status in this era, so they can generously lend you two hundred dollars, so that at least you will not sleep on the streets or go hungry."
These words undoubtedly stimulated Tony Stark's self-esteem. Although he knew that the two hundred dollars was a help to him and Steve, his self-esteem did not allow him to accept such a thing.
It's like a helping hand.
So he said to Steve simply: "Let's go, I can find a way to get money and other things."
After saying that, he turned around and left very simply. Steve also made an apologetic expression to the fat mage and left with Tony.
The fat mage didn't care. After closing the door of the New York Sanctuary, he returned to his seat again, put on his headphones and opened the spell book he hadn't finished reading just now.
————————————————————
As for Tony and Steve in the cyberpunk world on the other side, their luck is relatively better.
Although you are still penniless and have no legal identity, in a place like the cyberpunk world, identity and money? As long as you have the ability, these are things you can easily get.
Especially since Tony is still carrying his suitcase suit in his hand. As long as he puts on the suit, even in the cyberpunk world, he can transform into a superhero and find a few criminals to borrow some money to solve the problem of food.
However, Iron Man has not reduced himself to the point of robbing street gangsters for food money, although he will make Steve do it if he really gets to that point. It is better for Captain America to be embarrassed than for Iron Man to be embarrassed.
After they walked on the road in the wilderness for about an hour, a passing car stopped in front of them.
A woman with obvious Hispanic ancestry poked her head out of the car window and looked at these two guys who didn’t look like homeless people at all, but more like two company dogs and asked: "You two company dogs?"
What happened? Did your master kick you out of the house? Hahaha!"
The other party obviously had no good intentions. He met two company dogs in such a wilderness, killed them, and looted their goodies. This was a good windfall for the wanderer who had just been kicked out of the family.
After all, everyone knows that company dogs always have something valuable on them. They are not like those street gangsters who have clean pockets and can run away. They are not like street gangsters who have to rely on themselves for most of their food.
Made or collected from the wilderness.
But Tony and Steve were obviously not the company dogs that each other thought, so Tony, who was very eloquent among the two, took the initiative to take over the communication task, intending to use his ancestral charm of the Stark family to attract himself and this lady.
relationship between.
Even though the opponent didn't seem to meet Tony's usual standards, he couldn't count on the old popsicle beside him to play any role at this time.
However, before Tony could chat with the woman driving the car, a pistol was thrust in front of him.
"Listen, company dog, I'm not interested in listening to your nonsense here. Either hand over the valuable things you have on you, and I can spare your lives. Otherwise, I can only use the beautiful suits on you two idiots."
He opened two holes and took it himself." Although the homeless driver was a woman, she obviously didn't have a very good temper.
But this is normal. Although the wanderers are extremely united, everyone in the family regards others as their blood relatives, united and friendly.
But for outsiders, Rangers usually don't have a good look on them, especially for the people who rule the world and turn it into what it is today - the company's subordinates.
At this time, Steve reacted very quickly. He rushed forward to block with his shield, and at the same time used a standard tactical action to snatch the gun from the female wanderer's hand, then pointed the muzzle of the gun to the sky and said, "We
There is no malicious intention, and we are not the corporate dogs you mentioned, we just need help."
The female wanderer looked at this guy in a suit who was surprisingly capable of fighting with some surprise, but her reaction was not slow. She immediately took out her spare weapon from the side and pointed it at Steve again.
And this time she shot without hesitation.
But there was only a "ding" sound, and the bullet bounced off the shield in Steve's hand, without even scratching the paint on the shield.
This result was obviously not expected by the female wanderer. She hurriedly continued shooting again, but she changed the target to Tony, who only had a suitcase in his hand.
However, the area of fire from the car window was still too small, so Tony just dodged and dodged, then twisted and pulled his suitcase, unfolded it and put it on his body, turning it into a steel suit.
Amidst the unbelievable swear words of the female homeless man, Tony transformed into Iron Man, then fired his palm cannon at a stone on the roadside, and then pointed the palm cannon at the female homeless man.
