Marvel: The Twelve Spells

Chapter 116 Energy Fluctuation

In a department store in a small town outside New York, Wanda was selecting from the shelves, while Luo Xia pushed the shopping cart aside.

"What else do I need to buy? I did my homework before going out, wine openers, chocolates, dinner plates, spoons...and chopsticks!" Wanda said to herself, "You once said at dinner that chopsticks are better than Knives and forks work better.”

Luo Xia watched all this calmly. It was not easy to hypnotize Wanda into becoming the mistress of the manor. This kind of life was what she dreamed of. Wanda would even explain many details of life that Luo Xia did not perfect. And convinced of it.

"There are also winter clothes, bath towels, etc. Wanda, do you need cosmetics? We can go to the specialty store later." Luo Xia reminded from the side, "Don't store too much food, I will take you out shopping every Tuesday .”

"Thank you Luo Xia." Wanda looked at Luo Xia wearing a devil mask and said seriously, then hugged Luo Xia's arm and rested her head on his shoulder, "I feel very happy every day I am with you. happiness……"

The two of them pushed shopping carts and lined up to check out. The rest of the people looked at the man in the couple wearing a devil mask and didn't care at all. Devil's fans are all over the United States. As the most popular villain, Devil's peripheral sales are very high. In the New York subway, You can meet several people wearing devil masks in one carriage...

Wanda and Luo Xia were talking quietly when suddenly two black men rushed in from the door. One of them was wearing a hood, and the other was wearing a plastic devil mask issued by a toy manufacturer.

The two men pointed pistols at the cashier, "Don't close! Give me all the cash, hurry up!"

Customers are used to this situation, and they experience it once or twice a year. Some people stood there playing with their mobile phones, while others hid behind the shelves in fear.

After a few seconds, the man in the hood and the man in the devil mask put a lot of dollars into their clothes. According to the usual practice, they should leave at this time, but suddenly the criminal wearing the devil mask saw Luo Xia in the crowd.

"Is it the bionic technology mask that was just released? Man, your devil mask is so cool!" Suddenly he raised his pistol, "It's mine now, take off the devil mask and hand it to me!"

Wanda immediately stood in front of Luo Xia, a flash of red appeared in her fierce eyes... Suddenly everything stopped, Luo Xia held her shoulders with both hands.

"Oh!" the devil-masked man yelled, "Your girl is really nice! It would be great if I met her somewhere else... Please take off your mask now, or I will shoot you!"

"Shet, what are you doing!" The hooded man on the side tugged at his clothes, "The police will be on the scene soon, we should leave!"

"The bionic technology mask sells for $2,300..."

"Okay...one minute!"

Luo Xia looked at this scene with a smile.

"How about I protect you most of the time? If I get beaten by someone in the future, can you teach him a lesson?" Luo Xia said in Wanda's ear, "Now hide behind me." .”

Wanda hesitated for half a second, then obediently walked around behind Luo Xia.

"I really want to give you this 'bionic technology mask', but I really can't do it..." Luo Xia raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "Don't shoot! Listen to my explanation first."

"Because I can't take it off, look!" Luo Xia turned his head slightly to face the devil mask man and the hooded man. His fingers touched his neck and side of his face a few times, without revealing any edge of the bionic technology mask. Then he said with a smile: "As you can see with your own eyes, it is impossible to take it off, there is no gap..."

Luo Xia was still trying his best to prove that he couldn't take off the devil mask. He even stepped forward to let the man in the devil mask try it himself. Suddenly, the crowd fell silent...

The two black men who just wanted to do a simple robbery were stunned on the spot. The expressions on the faces of the customers and store staff who were watching froze. A terrible idea came into their hearts, and then they backed away in fear. Rocha.

"It's a perfect fit," Luo Xia sighed, "just like a real devil mask..."

The man in the devil mask trembled all over, and the man in the hood quickly drew his gun and fired. The next moment, his eyes widened!

The bullets fired from the pistol were flying in the air at an extremely slow speed. This was the first time that the man in the hood could clearly see the flight trajectory of the bullets!

The man in the devil mask had collapsed. His knees softened and he fell to the ground. As a loyal fan of the devil, he naturally knew what would happen next...

Luo Xia smiled and stretched out his hand to flick the bullet. Suddenly, the bullet spun and accelerated backwards, and a scream cut through the air. The bullet entered the man in the hood between the eyebrows, shattered his hard skull, and exited from the back of the head. The blood splashed out.

The man in the hood fell straight to the ground, and his head hit the man in the devil mask.

Just as Luo Xia turned his attention to the demon-masked man, his expression suddenly changed... He felt a powerful wave of energy, and that kind of energy was unprecedented, at least he had never been exposed to it.

Luo Xia frowned slightly. He was a little curious about what it was, but before going to investigate, he wanted to send Wanda back to the manor.

The hypnosis process is not over yet. Now he cannot take Scarlet Witch to the battlefield. If Scarlet Witch is stimulated and wakes up during the battle, his efforts will be in vain...

"Wanda, we have to leave quickly!" Luo Xia waved his hand and the shopping cart flew out. He threw a stack of U.S. dollars on the cashier, "No need to look for it, the rest is a tip."

"Thank you, Mr. Devil," the cashier said boldly.

Wanda quickly stepped forward and handed her hand to Luo Xia. Luo Xia activated the snake charm's ability to make group space displacement after deep invisibility, and returned to the manor with Wanda and the shopping cart through several space displacements.

The man in the devil mask kneeling in the store seemed to have been granted amnesty. At this time, the door of the store was opened and a group of police officers rushed in: "Raise your hands!"

Devil Mask cried with joy. Compared with the devils, these police officers are much cuter!

Suddenly his expression changed drastically... An unbearable high temperature came out of his abdomen, and he was burned to ashes with a scream!

The Anti-Demon Alliance and the others went down the spiral staircase into the underground laboratory. As soon as they pushed open the door of the laboratory, the fluorescent blue light emitted by the Universe Rubik's Cube hit their faces.

Those blue lights have covered up the white light emitted by the lighting fixtures. The laboratory is full of scientific researchers wearing work clothes, and the tapping of keyboards can be heard one after another. When the door was pushed open, the scientific researchers all raised their heads and looked at the door, looking at this group of misfits with scrutiny in their eyes.

Superheroes are strong in personal force, but what they need here is knowledge. This is their home field.

Captain America stopped at the door. Many frozen memories came back after seeing the Cosmic Cube. He would never forget that scene. The Cosmic Cube emitted blue light and the Red Skull was teleported away in front of his eyes.

"Seventy years ago, when you rushed into the North Pole with the Hydra spacecraft that was about to detonate, the Cosmic Cube fell into the Arctic Ocean. Later, Mr. Stark salvaged the Cosmic Cube...it was Howard Stark." Hill As he walked, he said, "Since then, we have started researching the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. Although the research process has been slow, every harvest can make human science and technology advance by leaps and bounds."

"I didn't expect you to have such a heroic deed!" Thor said, patting Captain America on the shoulder.

Captain America didn't speak, and Falcon on the side was also proud. He said with a smile: "Everyone knows Captain's glorious deeds!"

Hill looked at the Cosmic Cube, and it did look a little different from what she remembered.

Thor, the God of Thunder, also stared at the Cosmic Cube with wide eyes. He had a more intuitive feel for that powerful energy.

"This is not a power that humans can control..."

"But the fact is that humans have been controlling it for nearly a hundred years. Before it was Hydra, and now it's S.H.I.E.L.D." Hill said calmly, "Dr. Selvig, can you tell me its current status? Or we shut it down first.”

"Sorry, Commander, it cannot be turned off. We have tried to power off the Cosmic Cube, but it itself is an energy source..." Dr. Selvig shook his head. He waved his hand, and a complex 3D data map appeared on the screen. , "This is a data record of its energy changes. The energy has exceeded the threshold that the equipment can monitor more than an hour ago, and it is still changing now. There is no pattern and no precedent. I can't determine its current status. .”

"So now we can only wait?" Hill said, "waiting for it to finish its troubles and then fall asleep, or for it to completely lose control and blow up the earth?"

"If it's an energy problem, why don't we find experts in the energy field to solve this problem?" Natasha said, folding her hands.

"Tony Stark?" Hill said over his shoulder.

"Mr. Stark is definitely the best energy expert on the planet." Dr. Selvig nodded.

Natasha turned her attention to Captain America. After Captain America nodded, she turned around, took out her phone, and walked outside.

Hill ordered the guards: "Evacuate all the prototypes developed in the second phase and temporarily transport them to Base No. 7."

"Are the machines and equipment evacuated first?" The US team didn't understand. "These staff are still here."

"Captain, as long as the earth doesn't explode, we have to do our job well. And the evacuation of personnel is much faster than those of large equipment." Hill continued to turn around and said, "Move all the technology away, and there is a second phase of research. The equipment is also loaded onto the truck and shipped away!”

Ten minutes later, Tony arrived at this secret base based on the coordinates Natasha sent him. When he landed, he saw the evacuation screen. Vehicles formed a long queue and slowly drove out of the base, as eager as Escape in general.

"Missed me? Agent Romanoff."

Natasha, who was waiting aside, smiled and said nothing.

"Your armor seems a little different?"

"Mark7, I just upgraded! Just after the 'Devil's Plan'." Tony said, "I will learn from every battle to improve the steel armor. I like to keep improving."

Now when all personnel were evacuated, Commander Hill granted permission to open all the security gates of the base, and the two of them came to the underground laboratory unimpeded.

After pushing open the door, the steel armor opened, and Tony in a suit walked out.

"Hey Captain! There are also Breaking Point, Legolas, Bird Mimic, and the beautiful Ms. Hill, long time no see." Tony greeted everyone while walking towards the Cosmic Cube in the center.

"His armor is very handsome!" Thor said to the Falcon on the side.

"That's a steel armor!" Falcon sighed and said, "I think so too. My jetpack is inferior in comparison..."

"No, yours is also very handsome!" Thor nodded seriously, trying to comfort the Falcon, "It looks like a big flying bird, so it's very handsome, okay?"

Falcon looked at Thor, his expression was a little complicated...

Tony shook hands with Dr. Selvig. The two had known each other for a long time. Dr. Selvig recounted the details of the Cosmic Cube and put the picture on the big screen.

Tony looked at it seriously, and the laboratory instantly became quiet, and all the scientific researchers focused their attention on Tony.

There are many dilemmas that they cannot solve, but they can't stop the genius Tony Stark. If Tony is also helpless, it means that things are no longer under control.

"It doesn't look good..." Tony said after looking at it for a few seconds.

"You can't help it?" Hill asked with a frown.

"So why are they still here?" Tony motioned to the researchers on the side, "Are they wasting our escape time later?"

Hill nodded and immediately issued an order for all scientific researchers to evacuate.

"Jarvis, help me scan its energy." Tony ordered without looking back, "Establish its structure and composition analysis data."

The steel armor took a few steps forward and fired a red laser from its right arm that swept across the entire Universe Cube.

"Sorry sir, there is a lot of energy that I can't quantify. That cube seems to be a protective shell, containing something with great power." Jarvis's voice sounded.

"The situation is getting worse. The Cube is always active, and we have no way to deal with it. We don't even know what's happening!" Dr. Selvig said, grabbing his hair.

"It's not just active, it's also reacting." Tony looked closely at the Cosmic Cube, and then looked at the data aside, "For some reason, the Cosmic Cube turned on its power, and it didn't generate it spontaneously."

Dr. Selvig said with a wry smile: "I didn't do anything, just normal data recording..."

"No, doctor, I didn't say you," Tony interrupted, "it was the people on the other side who were doing it."

"another side?"

"The Cosmic Cube can open the door to space. A door can be pushed open from the outside or from the inside." Tony explained as he made a sliding door motion.

"Who could be inside?" Natasha asked curiously, "Aliens?"

"Who knows, I've never seen aliens," Tony said with a shrug. He suddenly thought of Thor, "I forgot that there was an alien tourist at the scene. Maybe someone came out of this door. It could be a relative of yours or something..."

Suddenly a beep came from the device, and Dr. Selvig hurried over.

"The energy is rising again..." Tony said with a smile.
