Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

Chapter 67 Lifting the handle of Mjolnir...?

The hospital where Strange works, in Tony's ward.

Lu Mingfei sat next to Tony's hospital bed.

"You really can't buy me a burger?" Tony asked.

"You're still recovering, so it's best to eat the nutritious meals prepared by the doctor," Lu Mingfei complained. "Do you need me to remind you that you just had an operation and the incision hasn't started to recover yet?"

"I think I'm in good shape." Tony looked nonchalant.

"I hope you can maintain your current optimism after the effects of the anesthetic wear off." Lu Mingfei complained.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Tony said.

The door was opened, and a red-haired beauty who still showed off her graceful figure in a nurse's uniform walked in.

"Get out." Tony said.

Natasha walked towards Lu Mingfei and Tony: "Don't be so unkind, Tony, I just resigned from your company the day before yesterday."

"By the way, you threw some water in my face before resigning." Tony said coldly.

"Splashing water?" Lu Mingfei on the side was stunned for a moment, then turned pale with shock, "Tony, are you engaging in sexual harassment in the workplace?"

"How could I do that?!" Tony immediately retorted loudly.

"Then why did Natasha throw water at you?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously.

Tony was silent.

"Ahem," Natasha took the initiative to help Tony out, "Mr. Lu Mingfei, I am here this time because I have something very important to ask for your help."

She should have made it clear to Lu Mingfei on the phone, but Lu Mingfei didn't answer her and Fury's calls at all, so she could only make a trip in person.

"My help?" Lu Mingfei looked curious, "Help for what?"

"In New Mexico, a hammer fell from the sky," Natasha said. "The amazing thing is that the hammer couldn't be moved no matter what. Before we blocked the scene, many people had tried to move it, even with vehicles. Can’t pull it off.”

"Can't be moved?" Lu Mingfei asked, "Is it heavy?"

"No, we tried to use a large crane to lift it after sealing off the scene, but we still couldn't move it half a minute." Natasha shook her head. "If it is because of the weight that it is difficult to move, it should be on the huge crane." It sunk deeply into the ground under the weight, but the current situation is that it still stays on the ground, just like an ordinary hammer."

As she spoke, Natasha took out a photo from her collar and handed it to Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, then picked up the corner of the photo with the tips of his fingernails, as if he were holding something dangerous or dirty.

For a moment, looking at Lu Mingfei's disgusting expression, she thought she was not a European beauty with a narrow waist and big breasts, but a strong Viking man with a big waist, well-developed chest muscles and hair on his chest.

But in fact, Lu Mingfei was just a little unaccustomed to this kind of adult standard. After all, his biggest sexual audacity was wearing sunglasses at a swimsuit party and peeking at girls' thighs and waists.

Holding the photo with his fingertips and bringing it to his eyes, Lu Mingfei saw that the photo showed a square-shaped metal hammer with a short handle.

"Compared with the hammer head, this handle is a bit short," Lu Mingfei commented. Then he looked at Natasha, shook his head and said, "If you come to me, I can't help you. My strength is only that of an ordinary person." That’s all.”

"We need your help for two reasons," Natasha explained. "First, because you have a very powerful friend who now lives on an isolated island under Mr. Stark's name..."

"You're investigating me?!" Tony frowned.

The friend Natasha talks about who lives on an isolated island and is very powerful is Dr. Bruce Banner, who can transform into the Hulk.

"Actually, haven't we been investigating you?" Natasha said frankly, "I have been an undercover agent in your company since a long time ago."

"I will remember this account." Tony said.

"As you guessed, we need to move the hammer and take it to a more convenient place for research. To do this, we need the power of your friend," Natasha looked at Lu Mingfei, "and as In exchange, we will guarantee in the name of SHIELD that the military will never take the initiative to trouble your friend again."

"As long as he doesn't play baseball with a car on the street," Natasha added.

"I can't make a decision for him, but I can help you ask for his opinion," Lu Mingfei said, "What is the second reason?"

"That hammer has been emitting super strong electromagnetic interference, which prevents our instruments from functioning properly," Natasha explained, "and you said before in Hammer's showroom that your ability is essentially to control electromagnetic force. So maybe you have a way around its electromagnetic interference."

"I can't guarantee," Lu Mingfei said, "And I can't guarantee that Hulk will be able to pick up that hammer."

"It doesn't matter," Natasha said, "No matter what the outcome is, the reward we promised will not change."

"Wait," Tony said suddenly, "Mingfei, are you going?"

"Just treat it as a trip." Lu Mingfei said casually.

In fact, he is also a little curious about the hammer, and it can also help Hulk solve problems in the military.

"Then remember, if anyone from SHIELD mentions their Super Boys group to you, you should leave immediately and don't continue talking to them." Tony reminded.

"Super boy group?" Natasha was stunned, "I didn't expect our internal planners' naming taste to have declined to this extent."

Tony's face darkened.

"Tony, are you talking about the Avengers?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Yeah." Tony nodded.

"Mr. Stark, I want to remind you that I may also join the Avengers in the future. Your title of 'Superboy Group' is suspected of sexism." Natasha teased.

…

At night, in New Mexico, at Thor's Hammer, in the temporary base set up by SHIELD.

Thunder rolled down, rain washed everything, countless searchlights moved around, machines and people shuttled between buildings, and a modified off-road vehicle without a license plate stopped at the entrance of the base.

Natasha held a large umbrella and led Lu Mingfei and Dr. Banner out of the car.

Logically speaking, at this time, Lu Mingfei or Dr. Banner should show their gentlemanly spirit and hold an umbrella for Natasha.

But Dr. Banner has been wanted for a long time. Entering such a heavily guarded and serious official occasion, he will inevitably feel nervous. Once his mood swings too much, the Hulk will come out, although he is still far from being awakened. Far away, but he didn't want to take risks, so he kept focusing on calming his emotions.

And Lu Mingfei didn't notice Natasha. He was concentrating on feeling the huge electromagnetic field emanating from the center of the base.

He could vaguely feel that a force other than the electromagnetic field radiated from the center of the base and spread into the sky. The current thunder might be related to it.

What's inside is definitely not simple.

"Good evening, please come." A bald man came out, also holding a large umbrella. "I am Agent Coulson, the person in charge here. Good evening, please come in with me."

The three of them followed Coulson into the building.

"Agent Colson...I heard Tony talk about you!" Lu Mingfei walked up to Colson and his eyes lit up.

"It's an honor," Agent Coulson smiled.

"Sure enough, your baldness is as serious as he said." Lu Mingfei sighed.

Coulson: ...

Natasha on the side couldn't help but curl up her lips - people who have been exposed to the rain always want to see others turn into drowned rats.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see the hammer," Coulson quickly turned the topic to business, "But please pay attention to your safety. Someone is breaking into our security now, and he is very powerful in combat. Even my elite men can’t stop him.”

"Can't you give him a tranquilizer bomb?" Lu Mingfei suggested from the side.

"Actually, one of SHIELD's best snipers is targeting him right now, but I found out that he was coming for the hammer. Maybe he has a way to move the hammer, so I'm going to put him in and have a look. ," Colson said, "If you don't mind, I want to let him try it first. After he finishes trying it, I can load the tranquilizer bomb."

"Can we take a look too?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Ever since he felt that strange and powerful force, he had become more and more curious about the hammer.

Colson hesitated for a moment and nodded: "No problem."

While the four of them were talking, they had already reached the location of the hammer in the passage. At the end of the bright passage was a relatively dark area. There was a hammer on the ground in the darkness, and a figure stood next to the hammer.

"Because the interference around the hammer is too strong, all electrical appliances will stop working, so we can't install lamps and can only put light in." Colson said.

Lu Mingfei lit up his golden eyes, and his figure suddenly became clear - a majestic man with golden shawl hair.

"Is he the intruder?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Almost as he spoke, the majestic man also saw them.

So the man suddenly stretched out his hand and grasped the hammer. His movements were so smooth and natural, like a knight pulling out his long sword to defend against the enemy. The sharp force pressed against the man's cheek, like a knife cutting him.

But the hammer didn't move.

The man lifted it hard several times, but the hammer still stayed there, barely shaking at all.

But through the vision and night vision brought by the golden eyes, Lu Mingfei clearly noticed that the moment the man held the handle of the hammer, some patterns suddenly appeared on the originally smooth and solid metal hammer head.

The man who couldn't pick up the hammer suddenly looked up to the sky and roared angrily, with a look of grief and anger, "It's not my fault, it's the world's fault." After the roar, he seemed to have lost all fighting spirit in an instant, and staggered to his knees on the muddy ground in the heavy rain.

"Why don't you add a roof there?" Lu Mingfei complained.

Roofs have been added to the buildings in the entire base, except where the hammer is, and there is nothing directly above it.

"It's convenient for studying the electromagnetic waves emitted by the hammer," Colson explained. "We can go there under an umbrella, or wait for the rain to stop."

"No need to bother, I'll do it."

Lu Mingfei recited a few short syllables, and a ball of flame quickly spread over the hammer, turning into a thin disk. The rainwater falling on it was evaporated instantly, and at the same time, it also illuminated the bottom brightly. .

Coulson and Dr. Banner looked amazed.

Natasha next to her had a very calm expression. After all, she had seen much bigger scenes than this.

Even the man kneeling on the ground raised his head and looked at Lu Mingfei in surprise: "Are you a mage from Midgard?"

"No, I'm just an ordinary person." Lu Mingfei shook his head.

Damn ordinary people! Natasha secretly thought, does your definition of ordinary people mean that they can vaporize people and metal instantly?

"Dr. Banner, how about I give it a try first?" Lu Mingfei suggested, "Let Hulk come out now, and innocent people may be accidentally injured."

"No problem." Banner nodded immediately. It happened that he didn't really want to release the Hulk. In his subconscious, he still felt that as long as the Hulk appeared, it would bring death and destruction.

Lu Mingfei walked to the short-handled hammer and reached out to hold the handle.

The man kneeling on the ground seemed to be shocked by Lu Mingfei's Jun Yan. He recovered a little from his devastated look. When he saw Lu Mingfei holding Thor's hammer, he shook his head and said: "It's useless, Midgar." A special mage, this is Thor's hammer Mjolnir. Only those recognized by it can lift it, even if you are a mage..."

Because he had already known that the hammer was very heavy, Lu Mingfei lifted it up with almost all his strength. Suddenly, he felt a lightness in his hand. He stumbled back several steps due to excessive force and almost fell down.

Stabilizing his body, Lu Mingfei raised the thing in his hand towards Colson and Natasha: "It's not as heavy as you said. Look, he lifted this hammer in one go..."

His eyes fell on the bare wooden pole in his hand and the bare metal hammer head on the ground.

"Uh... the handle of the hammer?"
