Chapter 166 Retro is Trend
"This...this is so cool!"
Jessica was as excited as a child who had received a new toy.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
She flashed around the office like crazy.
"It seems you have a hidden spatial talent in your genes, and the primordial liquid has activated it," Azu explained. "Next, you can try to develop this ability..."
Jessica suddenly flashed in front of Azu.
Their noses almost touched.
Azu could even see the fine downy hairs on her face and her eyelashes trembling with nervousness.
Jessica was also startled. She had never been in a relationship, and in all her life, the only time she had ever been this close to someone's face was with her fist.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Looking at Ah Zu so close to him, his heart raced again.
A surge of hormones led her to do something daring she would never normally dare to do.
"Chirp—!"
He gently kissed Azu's warm lips.
The sound was crisp and clear.
Then, before Azu could react...
“Swish, swish, swish—!”
Jessica's figure flashed repeatedly, leaving only a slightly swaying office door and the faint scent of perfume lingering in the air.
"Hint! Gained 15000 Special Popularity Points (from Jessica Jones)"
"Oh……"
Ah Zu touched the dampness on his lips and chuckled to himself.
"Very good, it wasn't a wasted trip..."
……
That day, there was a knock on the office door.
Steve Rogers walked in, followed by Bucky Barnes.
Bucky had changed into clean casual clothes, cut his hair short, and shaved his beard, looking much more refreshed.
"Anthony." Steve walked to the table and placed a signed contract on it. "Bucky has already signed it."
"very good."
Ah Zu picked up the contract and glanced at it.
In the signature section, it was written in a flamboyant style: James Buchanan Barnes.
As Azu's finger touched the signature, the system notification sounded again.
"Ding! Special character 'Winter Soldier' Bucky Barnes has been detected joining the host's ranks!"
"Gained 30000 special popularity points!"
"Reward: Enhanced Cellular Activity (Increases the activity of all host cells, significantly slows down cell aging, and increases the upper limit of natural lifespan)."
Azu's eyes lit up.
life!
After all, even the most robust constitution of the Chinese people cannot prevent a midlife crisis. Who would complain about living too long?
"Good, Bucky."
Azu put down the contract and looked at the centenarian veteran in front of him with great joy.
Welcome to the Walter family.
"From now on, use your abilities to kill those damn terrorists and alien freaks. The more you kill, the less blood will flow from your hands."
"This is the only way, Bucky." Steve put his hand on Bucky's shoulder. "We'll do it together."
Bucky nodded, his tone firm: "Thank you, I will do my best."
"From this moment on, you are no longer the Winter Soldier, you are Walter's hero."
"From now on, your codename will be... Silver Hand Buggy."
"Silver Hands..." Bucky repeated softly, then glanced at his left arm and nodded. "Sounds better than Winter Soldier."
"But... my brain..." Bucky suddenly hesitated.
"I know what you're worried about... those Russian words..."
Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and Wanda walked in.
She was wearing a casual hooded sweatshirt and looked like the girl next door.
"This is Wanda, you can think of her as Walter's chief psychotherapist... though her methods are a bit unconventional," Azu introduced.
"Hello, Mr. Barnes," Wanda nodded politely.
"Her?" Bucky asked, somewhat doubtful.
Azu looked at Wanda.
"Wanda, help our new friend."
"Okay, Anthony."
Wanda walked up to Bucky, her fingertips glowing with a crimson light.
In fact, Azu could have used the Mind Stone to instantly erase those commands, but he didn't want too many people to know about the Infinity Stones for the time being.
"Sit still and relax."
Wanda walked behind Bucky and slowly brought her hands close to his temples.
"It might feel a little uncomfortable, like having a nightmare."
"I've been having nightmares for seventy years." Bucky closed his eyes.
Crimson chaotic energy seeped into Bucky's brain like threads.
In Wanda's vision, Bucky's consciousness was like a gray tangled mess, and in the deepest part, there was a black stone tablet covered with Russian instructions.
"Longing, rust, seventeen..."
"Found it." Wanda's eyes gleamed red. "These things... shouldn't exist."
She pulled her hands outwards suddenly!
"Ugh!!"
Bucky let out a painful growl, his muscles tensing as his metal arms crushed the corner of the solid wood table into powder.
Steve nervously tried to step forward, but was stopped by Azu.
"This is a necessary process; rebirth is always accompanied by pain."
One minute later.
Wanda withdrew her hand and nodded to Azu.
"It's done."
Bucky slowly opened his eyes, panting heavily, his clothes soaked with sweat.
Steve looked at him anxiously: "Bucky? How are you feeling?"
"That sound... disappeared."
He tried to recall the trigger words, but the lingering fear was gone.
"I... am free."
Baki looked at Wanda, then at Azu. He revealed the first carefree smile he had shown in decades.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome, it's all included in employee benefits." Azu responded with a genuine smile upon hearing the system notification.
Gained a special popularity bonus of +10000! (From Bucky Barnes)
Gained a special popularity bonus of +10000! (From Steve Rogers)
Having resolved the threat posed by Pakistan, Azu tapped the table and got down to business.
"Alright, now that personal matters are resolved, let's talk business."
Azu looked at Steve.
"Captain, I need you to assemble a new team."
"A new team?" Steve was taken aback.
"The Seven now not only have to be responsible for high-end global military deterrence, but also have to deal with an increasing number of commercial activities and film shoots."
"We need a more mobile, more tactical, elite team that specializes in handling specific threats and counterterrorism missions."
"I've already thought of a name."
Azu pointed at Steve, then at Bucky.
"Let's call it—Roaring Assault Team."
Steve's eyes suddenly lit up.
Roaring Commando.
Those were his most glorious years, the years when he fought alongside Bucky and his old comrades.
"Are you serious?" Steve's voice trembled slightly.
"Of course. The name is old, but the organization is new."
"Bucky is your first teammate."
"Is this... appropriate?"
"It couldn't be more perfect." Azu stood up and walked to the window, turning his back to everyone.
"It's a legacy, Steve. Retro is trend."
