Marvel's Umbrella

Chapter 85 The Strange Avengers

The prison at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, ten floors underground.

Eric looked at the newspaper expressionlessly and ate the bread for breakfast.

After a while, there was a sudden "click" sound outside.

So he raised his head in confusion and looked outside.

You have to know that he was locked up here for more than two months. Except for someone who came to extract his genes and ask him some questions at the beginning, basically no one came later.

At this moment, he saw several men in black uniforms walking in.

"Eric, we at SHIELD have recruited you on behalf of the country. We need your strength."

Hearing this, Eric just looked at them coldly and said nothing.

Are you kidding? The first thing he did after gaining power was to kill ordinary people like them and make them work for him. How is that possible?

As for coaxing them and taking action after they were free, he disdained to do such a thing.

He is Magneto, the leader of the Brotherhood, and he has his own pride.

Seeing that Eric ignored him, the leading SHIELD agent continued, "Your daughter, Lorna, is in his hands. If you don't take action, she will have a miserable end."

Hearing Lorna's name, Eric could no longer maintain his indifferent expression and stood up.

"where is she?!"

"Cairo."

……

In a villa by the sea in New York.

Tony woke up from the bed with a tired look on his face, then spread Pepper's hands and feet apart, ready to get up and continue his research.

Since returning to Stark Enterprises, he has received a lot of resource support, and his research on new elements has been much faster.

However, many studies ultimately showed that these were the wrong paths, so to date, progress has remained almost zero.

Just as he came to the kitchen and opened the milk to drink, the doorbell suddenly rang.

"Ding dong..."

"coming."

After a while, he opened the door and saw Coulson outside.

"Pepper's still asleep, you can come over later."

"Mr. Stark, I'm here to see you this time."

"Oh? What do you want from me?"

As he spoke, Tony returned to the house and continued to drink milk and eat biscuits.

"The world needs you to save it."

Hearing this, Tony immediately spat out the milk in his mouth with a "poof..."

"What did you say? I saved the world? I'm a playboy, you let me pick up girls..."

"What about picking up girls?"

At this moment, Pepper's voice sounded from the stairs.

She was seen walking down the stairs in a set of white silk pajamas.

Seeing Pepper coming in front of him, Tony immediately stood up in panic.

"Dear, listen to my excuse... No, it's an explanation. I was just joking with him..."

Pepper glanced at Coulson and didn't continue to bother Tony.

After all, we still have to give Tony some face in front of outsiders.

"Mr. Coulson, I wonder what brings you here this time?"

"I'm here to talk to Mr. Stark about the safety of the world."

Hearing this, Pepper frowned, and then said coldly: "Tony is just a playboy. He's okay at picking up girls, but find someone else to save the world."

To her, saving the world is not as important as Tony's safety.

And the first thing she said was the safety of the world. You could tell it was a dangerous matter, and she didn't want Tony to take any risks.

Coulson shook his head, took out his tablet, and played some confidential footage.

“At about twelve o’clock last night, mushroom bombs from all countries around the world were launched, with the destination being space.

We concluded that this was a mushroom bomb destruction operation.”

Pepper interrupted the other person and said, "Isn't this great? It's like a savior."

Coulson did not respond to the other party's plan, but continued: "The person who did this is named Apocalypse. He has very powerful abilities. He also kidnapped Professor Charles last night."

When Pepper heard Charles, he hesitated for a moment. After all, this was a professor at his university.

But when she thought of Tony's safety, she shook her head decisively.

"What does it matter? We pay so much tax every year. If your U.S. government can't even solve this problem, what's the point of having you?"

"According to our information, Tianqi also has the ability to possess other people's bodies. If he successfully builds the pyramid and then obtains Charles' ability, he will be able to instantly control the consciousness of all human beings in the world."

Hearing this, Pepper and Tony were silent.

If things are really as the other party said, then the matter really concerns the safety of the world.

No one in the world can be immune to it.

"Who else but Tony?"

"The initial candidates are Eric, Natasha, Barton, Jean, Sam, Logan, Victor, Bronsky... Banner."

……

In a forest in Michigan, USA.

Banner was in a house, eating a freshly prepared breakfast.

In order not to reveal his identity, he lived in near isolation, growing and picking his own food.

As for the taste?

Because there is no seasoning, it can only be barely eaten.

"Dong dong..."

There was a knock on the door, which immediately made Banner alert. He ran to the wall and picked up the shotgun.

After a while, he opened the door a little.

"Who?"

"Hello, Mr. Banner, we are from S.H.I.E.L.D."

Hearing the other party calling out his name, Banner suddenly became nervous, and the hand holding the shotgun began to slowly turn green.

The SHIELD agent outside the door was also afraid that Banner would go berserk, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Banner, we are not here to arrest you, but to ask you to save the world."

"save the world?"

Hearing this, Banner's mind was suddenly filled with question marks.

The SHIELD agent immediately recounted what happened last night.

He was even afraid that Banner wouldn't believe it, so he took out his tablet and played the video.

Seeing this, Banner opened the door and let the SHIELD agent in.

"But I can't control the Hulk..."

"It's okay. Besides the Hulk, we also want your wisdom."

"General Ross..."

"Don't worry, we have already made an agreement with him. You will be assigned to our SHIELD in the future. He will not cause trouble for you in the future."

"Where is your car?"

……

Cairo.

It was already night here.

Apocalypse brought a group of mutant men to the pyramid under construction.

But the pyramid he wanted to build was not small, and even with the current human civilization, it would be impossible to complete it in a few days.

What's more, we are still laying the foundation.

However, Apocalypse was immediately dissatisfied with the progress of the project, and he came up with the idea of building his own pyramid.

However, when he thought about the fact that he could not ascend to the throne without an audience, he finally did not rush to take action.

After all, if I really have to take action myself, Cairo will probably be gone.

"Use your super powers to speed up the construction."

When the mutants behind him heard this, they immediately nodded.
