My surname is Stark, who changed my job to become a female big gun?

Chapter 582 That night, our family was having dinner...

The reason why Lainie introduced Skye to the brother and sister was, on the one hand, that she hoped to use Skye's example to bring the two of them into the Avengers.

On the other hand, he also wanted to use Sky to explain indirectly that the reason why the brother and sister were able to stand out from the many people participating in the experiment was not entirely because of their luck, but because they were originally extremely special.

But later, Lainie thought about it carefully and felt that words alone could not fully convey her deep meaning to the other party.

Therefore, after thinking for a while, Lainie made a decision.
Then, under Tony's surprised gaze, he took off the silver metal bracelet he had been wearing on his left hand.

"Now you can see what I'm thinking, right?"

Having said this, Lainie signaled Wanda to try her ability on her again.

Upon hearing this, the latter's gaze lingered on the silver bracelet on Lainie's hand for a moment, and then he used his ability again to look at Lainie.

"Your bracelet can block my ability?"

Wanda asked, but the response she got was directly from the other party's mind.

"Yes, its name is [Interference Transmitter], and it was designed by a top boss to deal with a giant octopus..."

As Lainie responded through her thoughts, Wanda immediately saw an astonishing picture.

It was a huge monster with a red body and a ferocious face, with tentacles covered with bone spurs extending everywhere, each of which was as hard and deadly as a steel whip.

Its body was huge, like a small mountain, and its eye alone was bigger than Wanda's entire body.

And its expression was so ferocious that it was terrifying. Its big mouth revealed sharp fangs, and it seemed ready to tear all prey into pieces at any time.

Suddenly, the monster seemed to realize something, and stared at Wanda with its heart-pounding blue vertical pupils!

At just one glance, Wanda was so frightened by the pressure emanating from this monster, which looked like one of the Old Ones in Cthulhu mythology, that she couldn't stop shaking all over.

"I'm Lotos!!!"

A sound that struck Wanda's soul exploded in her mind, and she seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible force, unable to move.

The voice was filled with endless majesty and terror, which made her want to surrender involuntarily.

"Lotos..." Wanda spoke with difficulty, her voice full of trembling and fear.

She had never imagined that the giant octopus that Lainie mentioned would be so terrifying. Even if it was just an illusion formed by her memory, it was enough to make people despair.

"Yes, he is the giant octopus, but don't worry, he is already dead."

Lainie's voice came from her mind again, and it sounded like the other party was not affected by the mental pressure of the giant octopus like herself.

"Aren't you afraid of it?"

Wanda asked confused.

"Of course I am afraid, but compared to being controlled by it and killing my companions, I am more afraid that it is still alive."

As she spoke, Lainie suddenly appeared beside Wanda, and not far to her side, there stood a woman with short pink hair and wearing a tight military uniform.

"She is……"

Lainie didn't turn around to look at the figure, but she knew who Wanda was referring to.

"Reni, a junior knight serving the Iron Wolf Knights of the Delos Empire."

Wanda didn't understand which country the Delos Empire that Lainie was talking about was, nor did she know what the so-called Iron Wolf Knights were, but she could feel from Lainie's complicated emotions that this seemingly heroic female knight seemed to have met with an accident.

Besides, it was most likely that Lainie killed her by mistake...

The heroic figure of the female knight was staring at Lainie's back. Wanda, who was standing by, could see clearly that there was no blame or complaint on her face. Instead, there was an expression of pity and heartache.

She didn’t seem to blame Lainie…

Wanda thought so.

However, before Wanda could say anything else, Lainie beside her suddenly spoke up:
"Let's go, there's nothing to see here."

As she spoke, Wanda saw Lainie wave her hand, and the surrounding scenery changed again.

The surrounding environment suddenly became extremely desolate, with deserts and Gobi everywhere. The scorching sun was in the sky, mercilessly burning the earth. The heat waves were rolling, and it seemed that even the air was shaking.

Wanda's eyes widened. She seemed to have seen this scene somewhere before.

Then, Wanda saw a convoy heading towards them in the center of the distant desert.

"Tony Stark?"

Wanda turned to look at Lainie, and she remembered where she had seen this scene from, in the thoughts of Tony Stark himself.

Lainie nodded in response and motioned for Wanda to continue reading.

The desert, the convoy, and then the sudden attack, the hail of bullets.

Wanda looked at Tony Stark, whom she had always regarded as her mortal enemy, who was ambushed by the terrorists of the Ten Rings Gang and fell into danger. In the end, he was killed by a missile with the Stark Industries logo printed on it. She couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction that her revenge had been achieved.

"Oh, you are just tying yourself up in knots!"

Hearing this, Lainie just glanced at Wanda and didn't say anything. Instead, she continued to control her thoughts and recall the past.

Then the surrounding scenery changed rapidly, from a barren desert to a dark cave. The captured Tony was tortured by the Ten Rings Gang, and then his life was saved by Dr. Ethan using an electromagnet.

Wanda looked at the thin man who was meticulously working on Tony's chest, and couldn't help feeling complicated.

She had seen the man's final outcome from Tony's memory, so she had great respect for this "doctor".

"He is a good man."

Wanda didn't say anything about Dr. Ethan not saving Tony, even though she hoped that Tony would just die in the cold cave before him.

This time, Lainie didn't even look at Wanda. She just nodded and sped up her recollections.

"Thank you for saving my life."

"Then don't let it go to waste... don't waste it anymore..." Wanda did not comment on the subsequent scenes, because Wanda had never seen what happened after that in Tony's memory, and all the scenes were unfamiliar to Wanda.

She felt as if she was watching a 4D movie about the first half of Tony Stark's life. She was in the position of a bystander, looking back at everything that this seemingly glamorous playboy had experienced over the years.

Until Lainie stopped recalling, the scene around her finally froze on the night when Tony and his men completely eliminated Killian, the president of AIM who claimed to be Mandarin.

"you're right……"

Wanda looked at the "second sun" that had disappeared above the sea level and spoke slowly and softly.

"That guy has indeed endured the guilt he deserves. The self-righteous guy we hate has actually died in that cave a long time ago..."

Wanda glanced at the man in gold and red armor who was frozen in the surrounding scene.

"He doesn't owe us anything now."

"thank you for understanding."

Lainie was very relieved. In fact, the reason why she took Wanda to review everything Tony had experienced over the years was not because she expected Wanda to completely forgive Tony based on these memories alone.

She just hoped that Wanda could use a more rational attitude to sort out the hatred between them and Tony.

Even Lainie could not refute the mistakes Tony had made in the past, and even before Tony experienced that crisis, Lainie herself hated him very much.

But after experiencing the transformation of life and death, Tony is no longer the playboy who doesn't care about the world.

The burden and responsibility he now carries will serve as a constant reminder to him.

"It doesn't matter. Like you said, the people who should be held responsible for our parents' deaths are the ones who started the war."

As she spoke, the crimson magic in Wanda's eyes activated, and the frozen images around them quickly twisted, quickly transforming the seaside where the two were into a warm and comfortable home.

Lainie looked around with some suspicion. This was a living room that didn't look particularly spacious and was extremely unfamiliar to Lainie.

Obviously these are not her memories, but Wanda's.

"That night, our family was having dinner..."

As Wanda's voice rang out softly, Lainie saw the scene around her move.

At the dining table on one side of the room, a young father was sitting at the main seat, while his beautiful mother was busy serving soup to her family.

A pair of twin brother and sister who looked only 10 years old sat at the table with their favorite dishes in front of them, and the faces of the whole family were filled with happy smiles.

However, the heartwarming scene did not last long. With a loud bang, an aerial bomb that seemed to carry the whisper of death suddenly fell from the sky and landed directly in the center of the living room. It blew through the two floors below and created a huge hole like an abyss in the middle of the living room.

The sudden change left the family of four in the restaurant with no time to react, and they didn’t even have time to scream. The young couple was swallowed up into the heart-wrenching abyss.

What followed was that the entire building began to scream as it could not bear the weight. The originally bright lights around it suddenly dimmed, and accompanied by a shaking of the earth, the originally warm little home began to collapse.

"Wanda! Wanda!"

The older twin brother desperately pulled his sister's arm, and before the building completely collapsed, he successfully rolled his sister, who had already lost her soul, under the bed in the bedroom.

And with the help of the fairly sturdy and reliable bed, they were able to provide a small shelter for the two siblings for a short period of time.

However, before the brother and sister, who were temporarily safe, could come to their senses, another chilling scream came from above the two children's heads!
The sound was like the wail of a devil, coming from far away and getting closer. In less than a breath, an aerial bomb with the words STARK INDUSTRIES clearly engraved on it suddenly appeared in front of Lainie.

Boom! ! !
A dull sound of metal collision rang out in this hopeless ruin. The aerial bomb that exuded a strong smell of death was unfortunately embedded in the brick and stone rubble in front of the brother and sister who were curled up under the bed!
"Every second after that, we were constantly worried that any move we made would detonate this bomb."

Wanda leaned down and looked at the two siblings curled up under the bed, their faces filled with grief and sorrow.

"For two days, two whole days, we didn't eat or drink. Even though we were so scared that we peed our pants, we didn't dare to move."

Lainie looked at the three people in this desperate scene and didn't know what to say for a moment.

She wanted to speak to comfort Wanda, but the voice was stuck in her throat and she couldn't come out.

"You said that according to Stark Military's quality standards, there would never be a dud, but that's the truth. Otherwise, you wouldn't be here talking to me."

Wanda stared at the aerial bomb that was constantly flashing red light, and stretched out her right hand, which had already condensed crimson energy.

Then, with a sudden empty grip of Wanda's right hand, the crimson magic power attached to her right hand suddenly attacked the bomb, and then twisted it into a twist in front of Lainie.

From beginning to end, the bomb showed no sign of exploding.

It was as if explaining to Lainie that even if the probability of a dud was a pitiful one in ten thousand, it was still a hundred percent fact to the brother and sister curled up under the bed.

Seeing this scene, Lainie couldn't help but frown slightly.

She was very sure that Wanda was the Scarlet Witch, and by browsing the memories shared by Ryan, Lainie was very sure that there was actually something a little bit unusual in this past that belonged exclusively to Wanda's memory.

"Excuse me, could you please rewind this memory a little further?"

Lainie didn't respond to Wanda's words. Instead, she rubbed her chin and waved her hand to signal Wanda to replay the scene.

Lainie, who had just used her mind to control the fast forward and reverse playback of her memory, knew very well that Wanda could definitely do the same at this moment.

Wanda was a little confused when she heard this, but she still followed Lainie's instructions.

The originally dilapidated environment around me suddenly began to rapidly retreat as if it was playing in reverse. The originally hopeless ruins also began to constantly heal themselves, until finally it turned into that warm little home again.

"Okay, that's enough, but please go slower this time."

Lainie waved her hand, signaling Wanda that she could play it in slow motion again.

At the same time, she took a step forward, passed the living room that was about to collapse, and walked directly into the bedroom that looked a little crowded.

Wanda couldn't help but frown when she saw this. She couldn't understand Lainie's intention for a moment, but she followed Lainie's footsteps and came to the bedroom.

However, just as the surrounding environment became extremely dark and gloomy with the fall of the first bomb, Lainie suddenly stood beside the bed in the bedroom, her eyes swaying with golden fireworks fixed firmly on the dim bedroom door.

"Stop! Right here!"
