Just after Nian Hammer took his last breath, Gruchak said goodbye to Mocott with a smile.
The experience of being able to take down a legendary demon that was very powerful in itself but was trash at the time was enough to make the idiot Gruchak feel happy.
Maybe he could be excited for several days because he had done such a great thing.
But when he was about to open the portal and return to the Holy Mountain of Harrogath, he found that he seemed to have been denied access.
Both hands were tightly stuck in the gap in the portal, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't proceed to the next step.
This made his slightly deficient brain begin to overload.
"Mocott, what's going on with this portal?"
Gruchak chose to ask others.
"How do I know, maybe the way you use force is wrong?
But don't think about it. Let's go to Rumlow's place with me first.
I'm somewhat worried that the boy will encounter some kind of problem during this period, and suddenly he will have to be killed."
Mocott said while rubbing his broken head.
Of course he knew that Gruchak couldn't go back because Burqaso restricted him, but he really couldn't think of a good reason for this idiot to understand this.
A being who stubbornly lets muscles defeat magic is basically impossible to be persuaded.
Even Mocott doubted why Burqasso would let this guy Gruchak participate in the battle.
If there was a choice, Mocott felt that even letting Calgar come here would be more suitable than Gruchak.
At least that guy Calgar has enough brains.
"Do you care about the food?"
Gruchak raised his eyebrows, as if he thought this action was cool.
In fact, the action he made at this time revealed something funny in Mocott's eyes...
"……Tube!"
Mocott let out a long sigh and gave Gruchak a positive answer.
As for whose money it will cost to take care of the food?
Of course it’s Rumlow…
Although this approach is not very good, Mocott feels that his teaching during this period is enough for Rumlow to take charge of this rice bucket and give him a few meals.
“I’ve been wanting to get some protein powder to eat for a long time!
I heard that people all over the world like to use this when building muscles.
And what about the nitrogen pump? I want some too!"
Gruchak seemed too excited, this guy is very simple.
Simple coming and going is the real happiness. When you get along with Gruchak, you are quite happy as long as you don't pay too much attention to it.
"become.
But then you have to give that boy some money.
You can't let him bear all the expenses of a guy like you."
Mocott rolled his eyes and said.
Although Rumlow does not lack that little money, payment is one of the most basic fairness.
Mocott has no intention of breaking this supposed rule.
“I’m going to trade all my money into protein powder and nitrogen pumps!
Also, I want that fitness water bottle and backpack!
Also! I want to apply for a fitness card!"
Gruchak's demands were increasing.
Mocott could only agree to his request like coaxing a child.
To be honest, if Mocott had such a child, he would definitely strangle him to death and give birth to another one...
As for how useful ordinary human fitness equipment is to Gluchak, he doesn't care at all.
When an idiot realizes that he is tired of playing, he will naturally divert his attention.
As for whether it will surprise ordinary people... Mocott doesn't think so.
There is a gym inside SHIELD... no outsiders will come here.
…
Mr. Fantastic Reed is working on some magical machine in his research room.
For this scientist who can use science to create things that even metaphysics cannot understand, anything can appear in his laboratory as long as he is willing.
This guy is probably the smartest person in the world, but compared to Tony, Reed is less "destined".
"Reed, regarding Victor, are you really planning to fight to the death?"
The stone man asked his partner seriously.
There is now one less member of the Fantastic Four, and the room suddenly becomes much quieter.
Although Johnny is not a very pleasant partner, he is also a comrade who has experienced many things together.
Revenge is certainly justified in this situation!
"I knew something was wrong.
But I must say, we have no way out now."
Reed worked on the machine in front of him without raising his head.
There are very few people who can understand the direction of his research. More often than not, his partners will only trust him instead of intervening in his research.
"Is Victor's magic really something that the machine in front of you can block?
We've seen a lot of supernatural stuff, although you've found a way to deal with it every time.
But only Victor is different, and he is definitely not a weakling in the field of science."
The stone man said very seriously.
Although these words seemed a bit disappointing, they were all spoken from the bottom of his heart.
"This is just part of it.
If you want to defeat Victor, it won't do much if you just block magic.
After all, magic is just a means of mobilizing some energy that we cannot observe.
All differences expressed cannot be separated from energy.
What I have to do now is just to prevent all the energy from being released.
Then you can teach that guy a lesson."
Reed's words were very serious, but the stone man could hear that they were perfunctory.
He understood that Reid's words were definitely not sincere.
"No matter what you do, I believe in you."
The stone man showed his sincerity.
Although it is already made of stone, the trust in it is still as bright as a diamond.
"Is Susan still at Johnny's grave?"
Reed asked after tightening the last screw in his hand.
"Of course, Johnny was her only brother.
If it wasn't time for you and Victor to fight, I would advise you to accompany Susan."
The stone man walked to Reed's side and looked at the oddly shaped small box in front of him.
Reed's research is always weird. If he had to describe his technological research and development, "I am thinking" might be a good standard.
Reed can make anything he needs, which is scary...
"Susan just wants to be left alone at this time, and we need her to figure it out on her own."
Reed took off his gloves, then stretched out his hand to get the salad that he had not finished for two days from the living room.
Mr. Fantastic often acts incomprehensible, but in fact he still understands his partners.
At that time, he and Susan watched Johnny's body being destroyed by Dr. Doom.
Reed understood that at this time, Susan was not only resenting her own inability to stop Dr. Doom, but also hating everyone present at the time.
This kind of willfulness is not good...
But Reed couldn't persuade Susan to give up this hatred.
"Hey guys!
Do you need a helper?"
The sudden voice seems to match the elusive Constantine very well.
This guy was just a bit mean-mouthed, but he also knew that this was definitely not the right time to make fun of Johnny.
He originally wanted to ask the Fantastic "Three" if they planned to return to the four-person team.
But this guy's brain is still a little faster than his mouth occasionally, and this time he didn't hit the mark.
"I have a way around Victor's magic.
So we don't need a mage to help us fight."
Reed took a bite of the salad that had gone bad and put the bowl aside.
He had never been interested in getting to know Constantine.
In his opinion, Constantine did have a lot of effect when facing Spider Queen Alanya.
But Reed couldn't tell the difference between a witcher and a wizard.
His thoughts had never been on the Nephalem.
"But you probably won't be able to break through the defense of the guy who's trying to destroy authority.
I don't know how to explain it in a way that you can understand.
But it’s enough for you to know that I can help you.”
Constantine was quite careful when he spoke.
The people in front of him were not those villains and demons, but the Fantastic Four who had contributed a lot to ordinary people.
Although Constantine himself does not intend to become a famous hero, he will still maintain a considerable degree of respect for heroes.
At least it won't hurt other people's hearts in this sad environment...
perhaps……
"If you offer to help us at this time, I will remember it.
But Mr. Constantine, although I don’t know much about you, I have been told more than once to keep a certain distance from you.”
Reed said seriously.
He is a scientist, although most of the stuff he comes up with is not very scientific...
But he still believes in statistics...
Ten people are teammates with Constantine, and they can return almost three and a half times...
Three people will yell at Constantine, and the remaining half will curse Constantine crazily in heaven or hell.
There may be some lucky ones among them, but they are not many after all.
"Yes, if it were me, I would tell my friends to stay away from me.
But sometimes, only I can do things that none of them can do.
I regret this."
Constantine was honest.
The stone man on the side only thought that Constantine was very rude.
Although the Stone Man didn't know when this guy came to the Buster Building, it didn't stop him from hating this kind of approach without telling anyone.
"We are all in a very low mood now, and I hope you can give us enough private space, Constantine.
At least don't joke with us at this time."
The stone man's tone was a bit harsh, but it was understandable.
He was very familiar with Dr. Doom's difficulties, so he didn't have much confidence in Constantine, a guy who looked very thin.
Even against Alanya Spider Queen, Constantine's performance was pretty good.
But the Stone Man still doesn't know much about him.
"Maybe I should have brought some flowers, but please forgive me.
I was in such a hurry along the way that I didn’t even have time to find a flower shop.”
There were some flaws in Constantine's words, but they were still within the acceptable range.
So Reed and Ben didn't get too excited.
"In that case, I would like to know how you plan to help me?"
Reed's eyes, shining with wisdom, were filled with scrutiny.
Although he is not good at interpersonal communication, Reed is not a fool.
He sensed Constantine's sincerity, so he was willing to listen to this guy's specific plans.
"First of all, I will help you get the Invisible Woman out of the crisis of being corrupted."
Constantine only said this, and then took a long drag on his cigarette.
The amount of information in these words is enough!
"corrupt?"
Reed immediately became serious.
He still knew the name Corruption, and even investigated some information about the demons in the Burning Hell.
After all, they had only faced a legendary demon like Alanya Spider Queen not long ago, so it would be nonsense to say that he had no interest in it.
"The Invisible Woman is not in good condition.
Filled with hatred, she could easily be captured by the devil, and if it comes to that, I have no choice but to kill her."
Constantine said calmly.
From the moment he said the keyword "corruption", the dominance of this exchange has fallen into his hands.
Reed is a very powerful scientist, but Constantine does not believe that Reed can restore a corrupted soul to its original state.
The souls corrupted by the Burning Hell did not become someone's puppet, but truly became a demon full of negative emotions.
If you want to purify such a soul, the minimum standard is to turn a burning hell into a high-level paradise.
It’s always better to plan for a rainy day.
"In other words, you saw Susan being entangled in the Burning Hell?"
Reid's face finally showed some emotional fluctuations.
This news is significant enough.
"If you lose your loved ones, weapons can do nothing on their own.
Such a feeling may be a bit far away for Dr. Reed.
Although you just experienced it recently.
But what I want to say is that I have experienced this feeling countless times.
That kind of despair and hatred can easily destroy all a person’s past persistence!”
Constantine's seriousness seemed to impress Reed.
Ben on the other side also suppressed his inner resistance to Constantine when it came to matters involving Susan.
When it comes to demons, Constantine is much more professional than them!
"What's the solution?"
Reed was just about to pick up the bowl and place it on his hungry stomach, but he thought of the taste of the almost spoiled food, which made him stop what he was doing.
"Maybe it would be helpful to find a psychiatrist.
As long as a person still has hope and expectations, at least he will not be corrupted too quickly.
But this is based on the situation that no devil intervenes.
Now I suggest you find the Invisible Woman first, and then we sit down and talk.
Although the battle with Dr. Doom is equally important, it is at least not as imminent."
Constantine took out a cigarette and placed it in front of Reed.
"This cigarette has a devil's soul rolled into it.
I think Dr. Reed, you will be able to use scientific methods to study the nature of the soul, right?
Can it at least allow ordinary people to find ways to attack souls?"
Constantine raised his chin and pointed at the cigarette with the tip of his chin.
The action was very frivolous, but Reed didn't care.
