Lu Mingfei doesn't want to be a superhero

Chapter 265 Return, Seraph Preaching

The headquarters of the Avengers is a land purchased after Tony had a dispute with the US government. The location is secluded but not desolate and remote.

It is said to be an open headquarters, but in fact, its existence and location are disclosed to official forces. Most people do not know that the Avengers still have a headquarters. It is not that they are worried that the headquarters will be attacked, but mainly because they are afraid that fanatical fans will block it. Ask for a signature outside.

This place was supposed to be handed over to the military to build some buildings that needed to be kept secret, but it was intercepted by the Avengers after Tony's push. Although the military was not satisfied with the result, the politicians thought it was good.

The Avengers have proven their strength in the Battle of New York. Although Natasha and Barton, two ordinary people, seem to be just here to make up the numbers, Steve's prestige, Tony's technology, Lu Mingfei, The power of Hulk and Thor, as well as Thor's status as an alien prince, cannot be ignored.

Being able to give this group of uncontrolled guys a fixed gathering place actually strengthens their control over them in disguise - at least that's how American politicians feel.

It is necessary to mention that Lu Mingfei’s identity as “God” has not been revealed. In other words, although “God” is almost everyone knows it, few people would associate Lu Mingfei with “God” yet. Together.

Although those big shots who have seen the images of Lu Mingfei fighting against Abomination and the so-called "God" and "angels" in the Battle of New York can almost imagine that Lu Mingfei has a close relationship with "God", But they are even less likely to take the initiative to help Lu Mingfei publicize, and will only try their best to cover up the news.

Of course, from a certain perspective, this was also a good thing for Lu Mingfei. After all, he had never thought about ruling the earth as God, and it was troublesome just thinking about it.

And what he dislikes the most is trouble, especially now.

Avengers base, Lu Mingfei's private office.

He was holding Loki's scepter. The scepter gem that was wrapped in the blue energy of the Cosmic Cube when he first saw it had revealed its true form and bloomed with a yellow halo.

The silver thread transformed from the Sword of Silver clung to the scepter, but could not penetrate it no matter what. Although energy continued to pour in, Lu Mingfei had a distressed look on his face.

The yellow gem on the scepter is quite special. The power inside is integrated and unshakable. Even a weapon of this level cannot break through it and draw power from it.

All the power pouring into the Silver Sword now comes from the scepter - the scepter itself is a special energy-guiding device that can continuously guide the energy from the yellow gem inlaid on it, so Only the Hydra gang can use the energy in the gems.

However, this kind of energy extracted through the scepter does not involve the most fundamental power of the gem. For the Silver Sword, it is of average quality and is not enough to gain new abilities.

Lu Mingfei also thought about using the power of the Phoenix to break through the energy blockade of the gem, but he didn't know enough about the gem and was afraid of accidentally damaging the gem or breaking the energy cycle balance of the gem, causing an energy explosion in the gem.

The energy contained in this thing seems to be endless. If it explodes, the earth may be buried with it.

It's better to give the gem to Tony to study first. With Tony's brain, maybe he will find something that can pry open the energy cycle of the gem in a low-impact way.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

There was a knock on the door.

Lu Mingfei put down his scepter: "Come in."

Wanda and Pilcher walked in.

Seeing these two people coming in, Lu Mingfei smiled and said, "How are you doing? Have you decided where to stay?"

Wanda and Pilcher have agreed to stay in the Avengers, but the specific form and identity of staying, and where they will live, still need to be discussed - although both of their super powers are not weak, they certainly cannot be allowed to Join the Avengers directly, so let them temporarily stay in the Avengers base and join the logistics department.

In this regard, considering that it was Tony who had wronged the two brothers and sisters after all, Lu Mingfei said quite grandly that as long as they did not involve the secret department, the two of them could stay wherever they wanted, which was considered a kind of compensation - of course, if the two brothers and sisters They didn't want to do anything, so it didn't matter if they were given well-paid idle jobs. Tony was the one paying for it anyway.

Wanda and Pilcher looked at each other, and Wanda said: "We have thought about it, we... want to be your secretary."

"My secretary?" Lu Mingfei was stunned, "I don't need a secretary."

"We discussed it. After all, we were members of Hydra before. Our identities in the Avengers are sensitive and we are not suitable for any job. It will attract a lot of suspicion," Wanda said. "Being your secretary is the best choice." It's a job suitable for us, at least... we're fairly familiar with you."

After a pause, Wanda added: "And my ability can weave illusions and affect other people's minds to a certain extent. This ability is also very sensitive. It is more reassuring for me to stay with a strong person like you."

"Do you still have this ability? I thought you could only use telekinesis." Lu Mingfei was stunned.

Most of Hydra's information was destroyed by the Black Sun, including the part that recorded Wanda's abilities. If she hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, Lu Mingfei would not have known about it. But on the other hand, her ability to take the initiative to reveal her abilities also proves that She already has some trust in herself, which is a good start.

"In that case, you are indeed more suitable to work near me," Lu Mingfei thought for a moment and nodded, "But I don't need two secretaries. How about this? Wanda, you can be my secretary, Pierre." Che...you will be the bodyguard."

"Me? Bodyguard?" Pilcher pointed to his nose, then looked at Lu Mingfei, "Protecting you?"

If anything is dangerous to you, what's the difference between me going up there and committing suicide? !

"Don't worry, it's just a position," Lu Mingfei said, "Look, Steve needs to bring a team of bodyguards with him when traveling. Do you think he needs it?"

"Isn't this different..." Pilcher's eyes twitched.

No matter how powerful Captain America is, he is still physically mortal. Pilcher believes that with his speed, he can defeat Steve.

But after watching the battle between Lu Mingfei and Professor Lizard up close, he didn't feel at all that he could survive in the hands of these two men.

Although his physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary people, it is not out of the realm of flesh and blood. He cannot even withstand bullets. His extreme speed comes entirely from his superpowers, and the damage he causes does not match his speed - otherwise he would just run. It can cause a large-scale sonic boom cloud at any time as a means of killing.

Lu Mingfei and Professor Lizard can completely ignore any attack from him, and just use a super-wide AOE skill to make him unable to get close.

In front of an enemy of this level, his speed cannot give him the slightest sense of security.

"If you really don't want to be a bodyguard, you can also be my driver," Lu Mingfei said. "Although I already have a driver at home, that is my personal driver. There is no conflict if you serve as my driver for work."

"No problem!" Pilcher nodded immediately.

Seeing Pilcher nod, Lu Mingfei knew that he would have little chance of working in the future - although his personal driver did not have superpowers and had the shortcoming of occasionally taking off his shirt in the car, after all, he was a good-looking man with a hot figure. A hot and beautiful retired race car driver, why would he leave the beautiful driver alone and sit in a car driven by a man?

But this is not because he treats her differently, because Wanda, who is also a beauty, has little chance to work.

As a formal member of the Avengers, although he is one of the highest-ranking people in the entire base, he never cares about anything. The operation of the base is maintained by Jarvis conscientiously. He has been coming to the office for three days in a row. , but apart from staring at the scepter, he ate snacks, played games, and made video calls with Dr. Zhao to talk about the new technical directions of the regeneration cradle and alchemy.

But it doesn’t seem good to not let these two people do anything.

Rubbing his chin, Lu Mingfei thought for a moment, then his eyes lit up: "Pilcher, I have a task for you."

"Boss, your orders." Pilcher instantly entered the role.

"You don't have a car, right?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Pilcher nodded - he had been wandering with his sister before joining Hydra. After joining Hydra, he was used as a test subject. Where did he get the car?

"Here, go buy a car you like first." Lu Mingfei took out his checkbook, wrote down a number, tore it off, and handed it to Pilcher, "Pick a good-looking one and buy it. It will be your work car from now on. I don't have it." When the work is given to you, you can drive whatever you want.”

"Yes, boss," Pilcher took the check, glanced at the numbers on it, and widened his eyes, "Boss, did you write an extra zero?"

"No," Lu Mingfei said, "If you want to buy a car, of course you have to buy something better."

Swallowing hard, Pilcher realized for the first time - Hydra didn't seem to be very rich.

"By the way, there's Wanda," Lu Mingfei handed over another check, "We don't have uniforms here, and I don't know what the secretary should wear. You can go to a clothing store and buy some clothes that you think are suitable, and then match them. Some bags, jewelry, etc... Anyway, you can go ahead and buy them, I don't know anything about these, just meet the standards of a 'secretary'."

Wanda took the check, glanced at the numbers, and twitched her fingertips: "Do you want me to buy clothes or a clothing store?"

"If you think buying a clothing store can help you match things more efficiently, that's no problem," Lu Mingfei said. Wanda:……

Pilcher: ...

……

After walking out of Lu Mingfei's office with two checks in hand, Wanda and Pilcher looked at each other.

"This job...is not bad." Pilcher looked complicated.

"Brother, we are here to find enemies," Wanda reminded, "Don't lose yourself in money."

"I know, do you think I am that kind of person?" Pilcher asked, "But...sister, why do you hold the check so tightly?"

Wanda was silent for a few seconds: "I have never seen so much money."

"Sister, please wake up! Don't be corrupted by money!" Pilcher lamented, "That Lu Mingfei looks like a playboy like Tony Stark at first glance. Maybe he is not a bad person, but he is definitely not a good man. You Don’t let him cheat you out of money!”

"I don't think he looks like a playboy..." Wanda frowned.

"Sister, you believe me! I am a man, so I know best. There are no men who are not lewd!" Pilcher said seriously.

The door of the office was opened, and Lu Mingfei stuck his head out: "By the way, Pilcher, get the car done before tonight, and buy a swimsuit by the way. I have a swimsuit party to attend, and you will be with me as the driver."

His personal female driver is on leave today, so she can only use Pilcher temporarily.

"Okay, boss! No problem, boss! I'll go right away!" Pilcher's eyes lit up, and he disappeared at the end of the corridor in a flash.

"The super speed can be used in this aspect..." Lu Mingfei sighed.

Wanda looked at the direction where her brother disappeared, then looked at Lu Mingfei who had a sigh on his face, and fell into silence.

……

Mirror space, in Tony's experimental factory.

A huge furnace stands in the center of the factory, almost as big as a small building, with countless assembly line components linked to the furnace.

Michael stood at the edge of the furnace, opened his arms, and the realm of "heaven and earth are furnaces" unfolded. Bright red metal droplets gathered together and poured into the furnace in a funnel shape. They were kept in a molten state by the vortex heater. Michael's The blond hair was turned red gold by the molten light.

Lu Mingfei and Tony stood not far away, looking at the operating furnaces and assembly lines.

"The technology of regenerating the cradle to make steel dead bodies has not been perfected yet, but we solved the problem of insufficient alchemical metal first." Tony lamented, "Sure enough, the plan could not keep up with the changes."

"Michael is so useful." Lu Mingfei sighed.

Michael at the edge of the furnace could hear the words of Lu Mingfei and Tony, showing a proud expression.

……

After a while, it was time for Lu Mingfei to return to his own world.

In his bedroom, he first sent a message to Wanda and Pilcher, telling them that he had something to deal with and that he would give them a few months' leave, with their wages paid and no need to go to work. The specific time to resume work would wait until he came back.

Then he sent a message to Tony, telling him that he was going back, and reminded him not to focus on Deadpool's research, but also to take time to help him study the gem on the scepter.

Finally, he sent another message to Dr. Zhao, telling her that he had been unable to contact her in recent months for some reason, and asked her not to make a video call.

After doing all this, Lu Mingfei disappeared from his bedroom with a sudden move in his heart.

……

Mirror space, in front of the huge furnace.

Michael, who was smelting alchemical metal, suddenly frowned: "The Lord seems to have left? Why can't I feel the Lord's presence?"

Tony walked to the furnace and shouted from outside the range of the heat wave: "Michael, I have something to ask you!"

Michael looked condescendingly and glanced at Tony with disdain: "Mortal, make no mistake, I am here to help you smelt because of my Lord's order. You are not qualified to order me."

"But your Lord just left." Tony said.

"Shut up, mortal, you don't need to say anything, I can feel it," Michael said, "So what if the Lord leaves, I will still stick to the Lord's command."

"I didn't ask you to disobey the order," Tony said, "but don't you think that just executing the order is not enough? It is impossible for you to make Lu Mingfei happy by doing what he has already ordered, because it was beyond his expectation. middle."

"What do you mean?" Michael frowned, partly because of confusion, and partly because he didn't like Tony calling the Lord by his first name.

"You have to do something for Lu Mingfei that he didn't expect. This is called a surprise, and it can prove your ability and loyalty." Tony followed the instructions.

"That makes sense. What should I do? What if it backfires?" Michael was a little confused.

"I just have some ideas," Tony said with a friendly smile, "Come down and I'll tell you."

……

New York, in the new sanctuary.

The so-called new church is a newly built church for God who appeared in the Battle of New York. The decoration is full of dragon style.

During the Battle of New York, the old priest who was the first to kneel before God took the lead in saying Mass in front of the icon, which was half human and half dragon.

Suddenly, the old priest, who was bowing his head and kneeling in worship, heard the exclamations of the believers behind him.

The old priest raised his head, and was about to tell them to be quiet, when he saw a handsome man with dragon wings on his back, blond hair and golden eyes floating in front of the icon, radiating holy light.

"You...you..." The old priest looked excited.

"I am the Seraph of the Lord, Michael," the man with blond hair and golden eyes looked down at the believers, "I was inspired by the Lord to bless the devout believers."

……

Avengers, Logistics Base.

Natasha is working, with a relaxed smile on her face - now her job has never been easier, she only needs to deal with some paperwork.

While signing a document, Natasha suddenly sneezed without warning.

A few seconds later, the phone rang, and Natasha answered the call. The relaxed smile on her face instantly solidified.
