Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

Hey, you know what, these two girls are actually pretty polite! After using the car, they even knew to wash it, fill up the tank, and return it!

Enraged, Sherlock immediately erupted, grabbing the two little girls and giving them a taste of what a complete childhood truly meant.

With Sherlock practically swinging the belt in a blur, the two little girls, who had become increasingly unruly ever since acquiring Sherlock's alchemical tools, finally received their punishment.

The good news is that Sherlock's car wasn't damaged. After all, the screws on the car are made of the same material as Tony's armor. Bullets and explosions wouldn't be able to harm it, and even an RPG wouldn't necessarily come out on top.

The bad news is that during the time I was watching Tony's fun, these two girls had done this before!

Upon hearing this news, Sherlock's vision went black again. If one word could describe Sherlock's current state, it would be "regret" without the slightest hesitation.

Damn it, I shouldn't have been so shameless as to tell those two girls my heretical theories in the first place. Now the backlash is coming back on me!

Only then did Sherlock understand why Zhao Weike had that expression after the first mission, and why Zhao Weike stammered when asked where his beloved car was.

After Sherlock's loving lecture, the two little girls finally revealed another piece of information to him.

Although the two young girls in front of me were Zhao Weike's apprentices, their reputation at the Continental Hotel had nothing to do with Zhao Weike anymore, but damn it, they've gotten in touch with me!

And he himself has also gained a resounding slogan and reputation in the mainland hotel industry.

The Heretical Trainer: A top-tier instructor who specializes in training heretical assassins!

"What a tragedy!!!"

Sherlock looked at the two tearful young girls in front of him with a face full of grief and indignation.

Chapter 169 The Awakening Captain

Only then did Sherlock understand why Charon and Winston had reacted the way they did when he entered the Continental Hotel.

So it's because these two little girls have ruined his reputation!

This news was incredibly frustrating for Sherlock. Although he wasn't part of the Continental Hotel's circle, it still left him with a slight sense of sadness.

It's like a straight man suddenly becoming a viral sensation in a specific circle in Chengdu. Although it doesn't have any real impact, it still feels a bit strange.

Of course, although Sherlock was angry, he still led the two girls to the local Continental Hotel with a dark face to complete the mission before preparing to take them back.

Well, although Sherlock had intended for the two girls to go down this path from the beginning, it's clear that now, firstly, the timing is wrong, and secondly, her mother's progress is simply too far ahead of schedule!

God knows what these two unruly girls will get up to if things continue like this.

Especially Anna. If things continue like this, and Anna really goes to that snowy mountain town for revenge, just like in the movie, let alone whether it will cause a war.

The question is whether that town can even survive. With Anna's current methods and Mindy's firepower, let alone Zhao Weike stopping them, even the Avengers might not be able to win!

While Sherlock was still worrying about the two girls beside him who were developing too rapidly down the wrong path, on the other side of New York City, a woman with an explosive figure stood in Times Square, looking at the dazzling lights and bustling city with a bewildered expression.

That's right, this person is none other than Captain America, Steve Rogers, who has the nickname "Eagle's Butt".

After being a popsicle for over seventy years, Steve was successfully awakened by S.H.I.E.L.D.

However, upon seeing the modern society filled with technology, the jarring feeling of being transported to another world constantly tormented Steve, who had just regained consciousness.

Especially after talking to the black succulent, Steve felt as if fate had played a cruel joke on him.

The good news is that his former lover has not passed away.

The bad news is that Steve was played a cruel joke on by fate, experiencing what it means to be "born before I was born, and born after you were old."

Looking at Captain America, who seemed somewhat dazed while sitting in the car, Blackie pondered for a moment before speaking to Captain America beside him.

"Steve, don't worry, S.H.I.E.L.D. has already arranged accommodation for you. Someone will help you gradually integrate into modern society. Trust me, you'll like your future neighbors."

As he finished speaking, Blackie looked at Captain America, who was still somewhat confused, and gave him a mysterious smile, which gave Steve a bad feeling.

However, Steve couldn't find anything wrong with it throughout the entire process.

The convoy took him to a quiet and peaceful community. If this were Steve's time, it would be a genuine wealthy community.

When the car stopped in front of a house, Steve was somewhat surprised by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s thoughtfulness.

Well, this house is completely out of place with the surrounding houses in this community. It has a kind of beauty from the last century. It's obvious that this house was temporarily renovated to accommodate Steve.

At Black Egg's prompting, Steve opened the car door and slowly walked towards the house's gate. As soon as Steve opened the door, a sense of security instantly enveloped him.

The reason is simple: everything inside the house perfectly replicates the familiar, or rather, the outdated, appearance that Steve used to know.

Although to a normal person, the house in front of them might only be considered to have electricity and water, it was no longer suitable for Steve, who had just awakened from being frozen.

"Thank you. Um, Black Egg? Your name is strange. Believe me, I don't mean any discrimination, but with the abolition of apartheid, I still suggest you change your name."

Steve spoke sincerely to the black-haired man following behind him, his face showing no sign of unease, just as people expected Captain America, the moral exemplar, to say.

However, after Steve finished speaking, Blackie's expression was not so good. His already dark face darkened even more, and the SHIELD agents who followed him also let out a suppressed laugh.

The laughter reached Black Egg's ears, making his face even darker.

After holding back his emotions for a long time with a dark expression, he finally managed to control himself and tried to relax his back teeth as he spoke to the captain.

“My name is Nick Fury! And this is Natasha, Agent Natasha Romanoff. She will be here for a week to help you get acquainted with modern society.”

After saying that, Blackie turned and walked outside. As the door closed, all that was left inside was a bewildered Captain America and Black Widow, who finally managed to laugh out loud.

Seeing Black Widow laughing heartily, Captain America looked at her somewhat awkwardly and asked a little embarrassedly.

Did I say something wrong?

Upon hearing Steve's words, Black Widow smiled and waved her hand to explain to Steve.

"No, no, no, don't worry about it. Our director just dislikes this nickname. In fact, everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. knows this nickname. It has become the director's private code name."

Even though this codename has long been classified as top secret by our dear Chief Baldy! Hahahahahahahahaha!!

When Black Widow got to this point, she couldn't help but laugh again. After hearing her explanation, Steve, who had regained consciousness, finally had a smile on his face and shrugged at Black Widow.

"I must say, that's very vivid!"

Upon hearing the captain's words, Black Widow laughed even louder. After a while, she managed to stop laughing and said to the captain mysteriously.

"Let me tell you a secret: the person who gave the nickname 'Egghead Chief' is actually one of your neighbors!"

Upon hearing Black Widow's words, the captain looked surprised. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said to Black Widow.

"Then I will definitely visit him when I have time. He must be a very interesting person."

Upon hearing the captain's words, Black Widow's smile grew even more cunning; she was already beginning to look forward to the captain meeting his 'interesting neighbor'.

Chapter 170 Giving the Captain a Shock from Modern Society (Part 1)

Sherlock had no idea that his neighbor on the other side of his house had been replaced without his knowledge. Meanwhile, Sherlock and the two girls finished their mission and used the Anywhere Door to take them home.

However, after returning home, Sherlock found that apart from temporarily confiscating the two girls' alchemical artifacts, he couldn't think of any way to correct them. In fact, whether or not the alchemical artifacts were confiscated had no real impact on the two girls.

After all, if the two little girls were to continue doing missions, it would simply mean replacing the explosive tags with grenades and turning the original close-in weapon system into a Gatling gun.

These can be easily obtained on the black market without even needing to use mainland hotel channels.

Moreover, as things stand, these two girls are definitely quite capable in combat; otherwise, Zhao Weike wouldn't have let them go out on a mission.

Clearly, what these two little girls need right now is moral education, not physical education.

This started to give Sherlock a headache, since he had to find a 'mentor' with relatively high moral standards for the two girls, and this mentor also had to be able to keep these two somewhat unruly girls in check.

Finding someone like that within Sherlock's social circle is harder than climbing to heaven!

What? You're asking why Sherlock doesn't do it himself?

Just kidding, what kind of good person could Sherlock possibly be, coming up with such a cultish interpretation of the word 'bodyguard'? You know, Sherlock was one of those 14 billion Jia Xu in his past life!!

No, to be more precise, Jia Xu at least read the classics, but who knows what kind of nonsense netizens like Sherlock are reading?

Just as Sherlock was worrying about this, there was a knock on the door of his house.

This puzzled Sherlock somewhat, but he still went and opened the door to his house. However, this time, the figure standing at his door surprised Sherlock.

The reason is simple: Sherlock is far too familiar with that figure. Anyone who has seen the movie should have a very deep impression of his large pectoral muscles and big, perky buttocks.

Captain America, Steve Rogers!

The captain was somewhat surprised to see Sherlock open the door, as he had never expected his neighbor to be such a young man. However, in an instant, the captain felt that it made perfect sense.

After all, if it weren't for a young person like Sherlock, no one would have given Fury such a fitting nickname as 'Black Egg'.

Seeing the look of surprise mixed with doubt in Sherlock's eyes as he opened the door, the captain realized what was happening and, somewhat embarrassed, handed Sherlock a package of oil paper.

"Hello, my name is Steve Rogers. You are the new neighbor. These are cookies I made myself. Please don't mind them."

Seeing the oil paper package in the captain's hand, which looked like it came from the last century, Sherlock's mood instantly brightened.

After all, they were looking for someone with high moral standards who could outmaneuver the two girls in terms of physical strength, and the captain just delivered himself to their doorstep—it was like a pillow being delivered to someone who was sleepy.

As for whether this was an arrangement by S.H.I.E.L.D., Sherlock no longer cares. What he cares about most right now is straightening out the two crooked 'saplings'.

After listening to the captain's self-introduction, Sherlock smiled and took the oil paper package from the captain, then pointed to himself with a grin and said...

"Sherlock Flamel, an alchemist, a proper alchemist!"

As he spoke, Sherlock summoned the Spear of Longinus and showed it to the captain. The captain watched as the red glove on Sherlock's hand instantly transformed into a strangely shaped spear, only to turn back into a glove in the blink of an eye. A huge question mark slowly floated above the captain's head.

?

No, is that right?

When he first came to his senses, that black slob named Nick Fury didn't tell him that there were alchemists in this world.

Besides, aren't we living in a technological society now? Where did this alchemy come from?

Wasn't this thing already disproven in its own time? How did it resurface?

Most importantly, it was obvious that the alchemy this little guy named Sherlock Flamel was showing him was not the kind of alchemy those charlatans used to deceive people.

This little guy really can transform matter; those gloves and that spear that gleams with metallic light are the best proof!

Seeing the captain looking somewhat dazed during his demonstration, Sherlock decided to let the captain experience some more of the shock from modern society.

After demonstrating his alchemy skills to the captain to prove he wasn't a fraud, Sherlock pointed to the two girls sitting obediently on the living room sofa behind him and spoke.

"Anna and Mindy, the new assassins and bodyguards at the Continental Hotel, are striving for the highest honor in the family bodyguards, Chichimora."

? ?

After hearing Sherlock's words, the captain estimated Anna and Mindy's ages, and his mind was filled with even more questions, even feeling as if his worldview had been shattered.
