I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 259 Steve, are you attracted to Carter's niece?

(It's been revised. Readers who read it earlier can refresh the page to reread it and avoid affecting their reading experience.)

It seems I'll have to keep my distance from the captain after this mission.

Although Natasha was interested in Steve Rogers' past experiences, that was all she was interested in.

In contrast, Natasha had no intention of provoking a superpowered individual with seemingly unpredictable abilities because of her slight interest.

of course.

This time, it must be said that Kiris was a great help in rescuing Steve from the thorn cage.

The wireless earphones she and Steve wore were actually linked to each other's identities.

After recognizing a voice not recorded in the system, it will not connect to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s internal systems, let alone contact Director Hill to ask how to control the Thorn Cage.

Because Steve had only recently awakened and was not yet familiar with S.H.I.E.L.D. equipment, he was unaware of this.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked throwing his headphones away.

Fortunately, Gilles used her superpowers to save the captain and allowed him to contact S.H.I.E.L.D. himself after he got out; otherwise, the captain would have sacrificed himself in vain.

Thinking of this, Natasha breathed a sigh of relief and silently decided that when she got back, she would ask the S.H.I.E.L.D. training instructors to give the captain some more general knowledge about S.H.I.E.L.D.

Just when Natasha thought that the Captain had escaped the thorn cage and could contact S.H.I.E.L.D. to get the method to operate the thorn cage,

But then they saw Steve talking into his headset, his face grave as he looked toward the center of the thorny cage.

·····················

Seeing Natasha and Tony instinctively turning their gazes towards him, Steve said in a deep voice, "S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't know an effective way to stop this Thorn Cage from going out of control either. Previously, it was Agent Portman who controlled the Thorn Cage."

"All they know is that the Portman agent who was lucky enough to take in the 'Thorn Cage' was by chance. He accidentally gained some of the ability to control the Thorn Cage after pouring his own blood on it. Even so, he had to pay a huge price every time he used the Thorn Cage, because the price of using the Thorn Cage was to consume his lifespan."

"So if we want to save those ordinary people imprisoned in the thorn cage, we must first enter the center of this thorny jungle and find the real thorn cage..."

Upon hearing this, Tony, trapped in the thorn cage, exclaimed, "Damn it, you're not trying to tell me that to control this thorn cage, we at least have to rush into the center of this thorn jungle, get the cage itself, and then perform a blood oath before we can control that thing, are you?"

"But that would require us to at least make it to the center of this thorny thicket..."

As Tony spoke, his eyes twitched slightly as he looked at the dense thicket of thorny vines in the center of the thorny thicket.

After the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who used the Thorn Cage was drained of his flesh and blood, turning into a skeleton.

[Remember the fastest online novel website: 20 ...

The spot where he used to stand was now covered by countless dense thorny vines.

Finding the Thorn Cage itself amidst such a large number of thorny vines is no easy task.

·····················

Seeing Steve Rogers' eyes scanning the surroundings as he began to look for a suitable high-rise building, intending to jump from the sky to the center of the thorny jungle and then try to find the thorny cage itself, Erin shook his head.

"If you can't find an effective way to control this thorn cage, I might be willing to give it a try."

Erin had barely finished speaking.

Steve, Natasha, and Tony Stark's eyes immediately fell on Erin.

Natasha even showed an expression of "I knew it!"

According to S.H.I.E.L.D. records.

The concept of "taboo" was first proposed by Erin.

When it comes to understanding taboos, even the powerful S.H.I.E.L.D. can't compare to Erin.

Therefore, Natasha wouldn't be surprised at all if Erin knew how to control the Thorn Cage.

After noticing that everyone's eyes were on him.

Erin took a white magic handkerchief out of his pocket.

After covering his left hand with the white handkerchief, Erin smiled and snapped his fingers. When he removed the handkerchief again, a notebook appeared in Erin's hand as if by magic.

Looking at the unremarkable notebook in Erin's hand, a hint of doubt flashed in Steve's eyes.

"This is?"

"This is a magical notebook. As long as you write your questions in it, it will answer them. And as far as I know, there isn't a single question it doesn't know the answer to."

As he spoke, Erin handed the notebook in his hand to Steve.

The notebook in his hand was the "Question Notebook" he had just taken from the Ring of Greed.

When in doubt, ask Baidu (the Chinese search engine). But there is no Baidu in this world. However, asking the "Question Notebook" is just as effective. Of course, when using this tool, it's best to find a place with few or no people.

Otherwise, if the "Question Notebook" asks you something sensitive, be prepared to be publicly humiliated.

"Are there really such amazing notebooks in the world?"

Steve, who had been wondering why Erin had brought out the notebook, had his eyes light up after hearing Erin's explanation. He instinctively took the magical notebook from Erin's hand and exclaimed in amazement:

"If I had this notebook when I was in school, believe me, I would definitely have gotten into MIT, which was my mother's wish."

"Is it difficult to get into MIT? Actually, I graduated from MIT when I was 17..."

When Steve mentioned MIT, Tony Stark instinctively chimed in, but no one in the room paid any attention to this show-off.

Seeing this, Tony, feeling somewhat embarrassed, could only curl his lip in disdain.

Ignoring Tony Stark's words, Erin produced a pen from somewhere and handed it to Steve, saying, "Believe me, Captain, you would never consider using this notebook to help you study unless absolutely necessary."

"Strictly speaking, this notebook is also a taboo object. While it answers your questions, you must also answer a personal question for it, and you cannot lie about this question, otherwise you will be punished by it. Believe me, you definitely don't want to know what the punishment is."

After listening, Steve asked, "Am I aware of the question posed in this notebook?"

Erin: "Of course, it won't ask you questions you don't know the answers to, it's just that the questions it asks are more likely to drive you crazy?"

"Social death?"

After shaking his head, Steve opened the Question Notebook and wrote down his question.

In Steve's view, no matter how much the questions raised in this notebook might drive him to his death, they were not as important as the lives of those trapped in thorny cages, hanging by a thread.

How to rescue those trapped in the thorn cage?

Three seconds after Steve's pen tip left the notebook.

Below Steve's question, a row of neat handwriting appeared, word by word.

It was as if someone was standing in the same spot as Steve, answering his questions with a pen.

[A sinner trapped in a thorn cage can find any thorn flower on the cage that confines them. They can then water the flower with their own blood, repenting to the Lord of Thorns. After the blood is poured onto the flower, a thorny path will appear before them. Walking barefoot on this path and passing through it will allow them to atone for their sins and escape the thorn cage.]

This is the simplest method. Of course, you can also choose to violently destroy the Thorn Cage. The Thorn Cage is afraid of fire. As long as your flames are strong and hot enough, you can rescue the prisoners before the Thorn Cage strangles them.

Steve's eyes lit up when he saw the answer provided by the notebook.

They didn't have the flames to instantly burn down the thorn cage, but they could have easily rescued those trapped inside by following the first method given in the notebook.

Just as Steve was about to take action.

After answering Steve's question.

Golden words floated up in the "Question Notebook" and then formed the following sentence in front of Steve.

"After you learned that the first woman you felt attracted to after waking up was your former first love, Peggy Carter's niece, did you experience forbidden pleasure and excitement? Please speak your mind."

Looking at the enormous golden characters in mid-air, constantly flashing with golden light as if afraid others wouldn't see them, Erin's lips twitched involuntarily.

Luckily, I had a flash of inspiration and handed the "Question Notebook" to Steve, otherwise I would have been the one facing these incredibly difficult questions.

After being tormented by its own clone several times, this "Question Notebook" seemed to have finally figured it out. Not only did the questions it asked become increasingly varied, but even the format of the questions changed.

What was originally just a problem displayed on the laptop was projected directly into the air, as if afraid that the people around would not see it, so that Steve would not be scared enough.

Even the way they answered the questions changed to speaking them out loud.

but········

Admittedly, the question raised in the [Question Notebook] piqued Erin's interest.

Not just Erin.

Even Natasha and the others not far away couldn't help but get gossipy after seeing the line of golden text appearing in mid-air. They all perked up their ears, waiting for Steve's answer.

Upon seeing this line of text, Tony Stark gave Steve a look of camaraderie.

"Hitting on his first girlfriend's niece, huh? Looks like even the famous Captain America..."

······························

Amidst a sea of ​​gossipy gazes, only Gillies looked at her old friend with pity.

However, Kiris was also helpless regarding the questions in the "Question Notebook".

"Sorry, Steve, I can't help you this time."

······························

Faced with the burning gossip in the eyes of a group of people, Steve, whose face was flushed red under his tight mask, finally understood the deeper meaning of Erin's words.

Damn.

If getting into MIT meant facing these kinds of social problems every day, he would rather disappoint his mother and not apply to MIT.

After taking a deep breath.

Steve said loudly, "How could I possibly feel any forbidden pleasure or excitement after knowing that Sharon is Peggy's niece? I'm not a pervert. At the time, I was so embarrassed that I wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into and turn back time. I never even tried to talk to Sharon."

In fact, Steve reflected on it afterward.

The reason he struck up a conversation with Sharon after he woke up was most likely because Sharon's appearance was slightly similar to Carter's. This gave Steve, who felt somewhat out of place in this world after waking up from his frozen state, a sense of familiarity and warmth, which led him to approach her.

But who would have thought that all of this was deliberately arranged by Nick Fury, that despicable head of the secret service.

Sharon was not only Nick Fury's agent sent to monitor him, but she was also Carter's niece.

With this relationship already established, how could Steve possibly still be attracted to Sharon?

Upon learning Sharon's true identity, an embarrassed Steve wished he could smash Nick Fury's head with his Shock Shield.

Is this some kind of scam?

····························

After waiting a while and seeing the row of golden words conjured by the [Question Notebook] dissipate, but without any punishment for Steve, Erin, knowing that Steve had not lied, pouted in disappointment.

It was just awkward...

This is truly disappointing!

The others around, who hadn't heard the answer they wanted, also showed expressions of regret.

[Damn it, what's with those expressions? Do you only feel satisfied if I have something on my mind about Peggy's niece?]

They all glanced at the people around them who had a regretful expression on their faces.

Having once again sulked Nick Fury in his mind, Steve quickly returned the "Question Notebook" to Erin as if avoiding a venomous snake.

After receiving the notebook from Steve, Erin did not put it into the Ring of Greed.

His intuition told him that he would need this notebook again later.
