American manga: I drew Superman in the Great Depression

Phew~

Take a deep breath and look away from Howard's [Time Fragments].

Colin turned his head and looked at the receding scenery outside the car, as well as Hawkeye and Howard sitting huddled on both sides, with a strange expression on his face.

Obviously not long ago.

They also destroyed the Ultron that was following them at their residence.

Now, sitting in a taxi with him, he didn't have the powerful and mysterious temperament he had before.

"I would like to ask..."

His opening attracted the attention of everyone in the taxi, and Colin couldn't help but ask.

"Don't you have a vehicle that is more suitable for this kind of situation?"

"However, taking a taxi is also the most convenient and unobtrusive." In the driver's seat, former S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury turned the steering wheel to complete the passing lane: "My identity is registered with the New York Taxi Workers Alliance, and I belong to

Legal taxi drivers can help us avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble."

Feelings, you are really a taxi driver.

Before, seeing Nick appear with Howard and others, Colin thought that his identity as a taxi driver was just a disguise.

As a result, from what I heard, the other party was not only a taxi driver, but also a driver registered with a trade union.

On one side is Natasha, the Black Widow, a former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who has registered as a superhero.

On one side is Nick Fury, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., who is registered as a taxi driver.

Comparing the two, Colin didn't know how to react for a while.

…

Just like that, in a moment of silence.

Nick drove the taxi and stopped in front of a ruins: "Okay, we're here."

Colin followed Howard and the others out of the taxi, and saw a manor that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

There are cracks all around the manor, especially most of the surrounding walls have collapsed, exposing the cement and stone bricks inside. At the same time, the manor is overgrown with vegetation, with dead trees falling among the grass that is as tall as a person, and covered with moss and weeds.

Every corner of the manor.

No matter how you look at it, this doesn't look like a place where people can live.

"here it is?"

Under Howard's guidance, Colin stepped on the bushes growing wildly in the manor and passed a collapsed fountain.

"The base of the Dark Avengers."

Walking in front, Howard said in a deep voice.

Dark Avengers! Base?

After hearing Howard's answer, Colin couldn't help but turn his head and glance at the scene in the manor. To be honest, it was difficult for him to connect the ruins in front of him with the base mentioned by the other party.

Also, Dark Avengers.

After silently repeating the familiar name, Colin turned back and glanced at Howard's back in front of him.

Obviously, the Dark Avenger in the other person's mouth and what he knew in his impression were completely different existences.

Just like that, he walked behind Howard for a short while.

He watched Howard and his group enter the entrance of a collapsed wall as if they were familiar with it, and followed closely behind. The group passed through the same dilapidated interior of the manor, and finally arrived in front of a wall that seemed to have no special walls.

Stopped.

Stretch out the mechanical palm of your left hand and press it at a certain point on the wall.

Accompanied by a series of complex mechanical twisting sounds, the seemingly worn-out wall opened to reveal an underground base full of technology.

"Welcome home..."

At the same time, a slightly frivolous voice sounded.

"It seems that your operation went more smoothly than expected..."

Hearing the voices coming from the base, the cold expression on Howard's face seemed to soften a little.

"Tony, report on the situation in Hydera."

Arriving at the console of the base, Howard inserted the modified robotic arm in his left hand into it to rest, and asked at the same time.

Tony?

Inside the base, Colin's eyes changed slightly when he heard Howard's name for artificial intelligence.

Tony Stark, reported to have lost his son in a car accident with Howard, and Iron Man.

"So far, there is no abnormality. The doctor seems not to be aware of the activation of Ultron Type I."

In front of the console, Howard was silent for a moment after hearing the answer from artificial intelligence Tony, and then continued to give orders.

"Continue to monitor."

"learn."

…

[Contact the twisted time node and collect a small amount of time fragments × 1]

Manhattan, 890 Fifth Avenue.

In a temporary residence in a secret base.

Colin looked at the text with a thoughtful expression on his face.

This piece of [Time Fragment] was not obtained from other people in the base, but an object that he had come into contact with before - Nick Fury.

From this point of view, the acquisition of [Time Shards] is not only the first time of contact, but can be obtained repeatedly.

This is undoubtedly good news for Colin.

This means that the objects and methods he can obtain [Time Shards] have greatly increased. It is no longer like before, he can only obtain a small amount of [Time Shards] by searching for possible [Distorted Time Nodes] again and again. If

, simply relying on this method to obtain fragments, and to collect enough [Time Fragments] to condense the [Bronze Seal], Colin must contact at least thirty or forty people.

Not to mention, there are other marks above the [Bronze Mark].

Just, why Nick Fury?

His eyes fell on the [Time Shard (Nick Fury)] in front of him, and Colin began to seriously recall his experiences along the way.

There is no doubt that there was no special contact between him and Nick Fury along the way. The only gain was that he learned that the other party was a union taxi driver registered through the New York Taxi Workers Alliance.

If the only difference is that it is the number of times the two of them have met.

This was the second time Colin met Nick Fury after taking a taxi home.

So, the way to obtain new [Time Shards] is to contact the target again?

No, it shouldn't be that simple.

Thinking about the differences between the two contacts, Colin gradually made a judgment in his heart.

Maybe it's because the resulting intersections are different.

The first meeting is just a matter of intersection, and you can get the first [time fragment].

Next, if you want to obtain more [Time Shards], you need to form more intersections with the target.

This is why, before, he was obviously sitting in the same taxi with Nick Fury, Howard and Hawkeye, but Howard and Clint's [Time Shards] were the first to be generated, while Nick's [Time Shards] were not.

He didn't appear until he brought Colin to the temporary residence at this base.
