The Paladins of All Worlds, Beginning with Pirates

Chapter 672 The Captain's Consciousness

The yells of pedestrians and the honking of traffic horns intersected each other, but Rogers didn't seem to hear it, and he still ran wildly on his own.

Finally, he turned into a dead corner of an alley where no one could see them except the entrance.

Rogers gently placed Peggy on the wall of the box, for fear of causing secondary harm to her.

Peggy slowly opened her eyes. Rogers' bewildered and helpless face in front of her eyes was the same bewilderment as before. Her dementia had relapsed again, and she had forgotten that Rogers was running wildly on her back in the sunset and in front of her. what happened in the hospital.

She said with difficulty, "Steve, you're back." At the same time, she reached out her hand towards Rogers' face, but due to lack of strength, she couldn't reach Rogers when she raised her hand to the highest point.

Rogers grabbed the dry right hand with one hand and put it on his face, the tears in his eyes could no longer be controlled at this moment.

Warm tears fell on the dry hand that caressed his face.

"Long time no see, really long time no see!" Peggy repeated the previous sentence. This sentence has been rehearsed thousands of times in her heart. No matter how memory fades, he can remember this sentence. Remember Rogers.

"How could I... leave my beauty, she still owes me... a dance!" Rogers stroked the dry hand, his voice choked.

"Ah, yes, this dance seems to continue like this! But...I, I feel so hurt! I can't see you, Steve, in front of me...ahem, it's so dark..."

After speaking, her hand fell and left Rogers' face.

"No, no, no! No, no, no!" Rogers hugged her horizontally, and kept saying, "I will save you, I will save you, I will definitely save you..."

After finishing speaking, the shadow of a magic stick flashed in his mind, as if grasping the last straw, he took a frantic step.

At this moment, he didn't notice that at this moment, a blood-stained pocket watch slipped from his pocket, fell to the ground, and finally opened, revealing the dim photo inside.

……

Not long after, the Winter Soldier strode towards the alley step by step, his brows were frowned, his expression a little dignified.

Just now, he saw the man's face through the high-power scope, and he always felt that it was a familiar face.

He walked to the blood-stained wall, then squatted down, and picked up the pocket watch.

When he saw the photo in the pocket watch, his face became more serious.

……

When night falls, the church is still very bright. The golden chandelier is shining brightly on the ceiling of the hall. The open door seems to be waiting for someone to come.

Roy stood in the center of the church, with his back to the gate, raised his head slightly, and looked at the knight statue in front of the church.

And at this moment, there was a rush of footsteps.

Rogers bent over and panted heavily, holding Peggy Carter covered in blood in his arms. After a while, he raised his head: "Please help me..."

"The bullet penetrated into the lungs, and there was serious blood loss. The vital signs have disappeared for three hours, and the body is hard. If there is anyone who can save him, then there must be God!" Peggy checked Regarding Carter's situation, Roy pronounced a sentence like Rogers' sentence that he dared not accept.

Rogers listened in a daze, his eyes flickering, and finally he hammered the ground fiercely. With a "boom", the ground of the church was cracked. His face was full of remorse, and two tears flowed from the cheeks of this steel man. down.

The corner of Roy's mouth twitched slightly, feeling sorry for his floor.

Rogers half-kneeled on the floor, his eyes wide open, and he muttered to himself, "It's all my fault. Their goal is not Peggy, but me. I killed Peggy!"

Everyone, when something that makes them regret enough happens, they will subconsciously review their own mistakes and look for a turning point in the development of the whole incident.

For example: If you are not so good, you will not be so good.

And even Rogers, known as Captain America, will have the same psychology when faced with this situation, but this psychology will vary from person to person, from strong to weak.

Sighing, Roy shook his head and said, "If you came to repent, then that time has already passed, and, compared with what she did for you, you who only regret here are really It sucks!"

Hearing this, Rogers suddenly raised his head, his eyes fixed on Roy: "What did you do for me?"

"You haven't understood yet?" Roy made a joke from the corner of his mouth, "Do you think you can leave your name in history and be remembered by the world, and you are remembered by people only because of a few newspapers 70 years ago? ?Even if you are really a hero, you can't be hot for 70 years!"

Hearing this, a trace of astonishment appeared on Steve's face, he had probably realized something!

Roy continued, "She has been waiting for you for 70 years, do you really think that in these 70 years, she really has only been waiting?"

"She praised your deeds, admired your past, and tried all means to let the world remember you. Just because of you, she suffered with expectations and worked hard until today."

Roy's voice was very calm, without any waves.

"It's her who made you live in the hearts of the people!"

Rogers listened quietly, he thought of the interview records of Captain America shown in the screening hall, and remembered about himself and the great achievements of the Roaring Commando in the deeds hall.

All of these are the efforts of Peggy Carter.

"After listening to this, what are your real plans? Is it revenge? Or live in the lower district with regret!" Roy looked calmly at Rogers who was half kneeling on the ground, waiting for his answer.

Rogers didn't answer right away, he fell into deep thought, staring at the reflective floor with his eyes, not knowing what to think.

But his eyes kept changing, from remorse at the beginning, to anger, then to determination, and finally to peace.

He glanced at Peggy next to him, slowly raised his head, looked at Roy with peaceful eyes, and slowly uttered two words:

"guard!"

Roy was a little surprised: "Guardian?"

Rogers nodded: "Peggy extols my past and praises my great achievements. I can't do these things, but I can protect what he left behind!"

"SHIELD?" Roy asked.

Rogers nodded, "She created S.H.I.E.L.D., and I will protect this world and what she left behind just like she did for me!"
