This large metal disc is surrounded by several metal brackets with semicircular tips, which looks a bit like an open chrysanthemum.
Above the head are layers of small pentagonal mirrors, all of which emit a silver metallic glow.
Finally, he looked at the circle of people on the disc in front of him... Well, that's not right.
After the quantum suit was removed, there was a raccoon instead of a human.
There is also a hairless blue-skinned woman... a robot
The rest, Tony, Steve, Thor, Dr. Banner, Rhodes, and Clint (Hawkeye) are all very familiar, except that they look a lot older.
After the others took off their quantum armor, they communicated with each other through eye contact.
Tony was the first to ask, "How are you guys doing? Did you get all the gems?"
Rod, his good friend, raised a ball with a big smile on his face: "We succeeded."
The little raccoon on the other side pulled out a syringe-like object from his waist, which contained a dark red semi-liquid substance.
Luke wasn't sure what kind of gem it was, but judging by the look on the bear's face, it was undoubtedly a success.
Except for Tony who was carrying a very old-fashioned leather suitcase, the others spread out their palms, revealing the Infinity Gems inside that were emitting a faint glow.
But Luke glanced at Clint, because this guy slowly knelt down with a look of distraught on his face, not looking happy at all.
Dr. Banner soon discovered something was wrong: "Clint, where is Nata?"
Clint's tears flowed down his face, he lowered his head, unable to utter a word.
Seeing his reaction, everyone's faces changed.
Luke silently increased the effects of his real dreams and primary concealment.
If he draws everyone's attention to this "outsider" at this time, he might become a scapegoat.
Moreover, Dr. Banner had a delicate relationship with Natasha. Now that she was gone, what should he do if he suddenly wanted to find something to hit? The doctor was green at the moment, and even the transformation process was omitted.
…
Half an hour later, the biggest shock of losing a close teammate passed for the Avengers.
No matter how many years people will remember this, they have to let it go and discuss how to deal with Luke, the outsider.
But before that, Luke was asked to take off his non-nano quantum combat suit and was "invited" to stay in an isolation room.
No one let him take off the knight armor underneath, especially when he opened the visor and revealed Bell's face.
Those who previously thought that Scott’s “DC Fusion Universe” was nonsense have all remained silent.
Without the visor covering it, Friday at the base could easily scan the face and make sure it was 100% clear that no surgery had been performed.
This absolutely original handsome face is actually basically the same as Mr. Wayne in the trilogy movie.
Although this knight is wearing armor similar to Tony's, instead of the plastic shell in the movie, the style is still the same.
Everyone even thought that this was what the Dark Knight should look like in armor.
After isolating Luke, the Avengers began to question Scott in various ways.
Scott had to play the video recorded in the quantum suit to prove that he was not hallucinating.
He can be hypnotized and controlled, but the data of the quantum combat suit is impossible to price.
If it was an edit, Friday would be able to find the modified parts in seconds and there would be no way to hide it.
So, everyone was shocked.
Tony: "The 'me' over there can't beat this guy?"
"That 'you' have a very good relationship with him, and are recognized by the world as the best partners." Scott looked embarrassed. He couldn't say that he had seen many covers of Batman v Iron Man CP comics on the Internet.
How shocking is it to see Iron Man with a "shy" face nestling in Batman's strong arms? Would he say such nonsense
Steve: "Their New York War happened several years earlier than ours, and their main force was the Bat Squad. Their losses were much smaller than ours?"
Scott nodded again: "And Captain, you over there have been awake for several years."
Steve: …
Here, he did not wake up until before the 2012 Battle of New York.
The others had a lot of questions as well, but after getting the answers, they all looked at each other in bewilderment: This Bat Team feels... a little too strong
Take the Battle of New York and the Ultron incident for example, both cities were basically preserved and there were very few casualties.
The tempo was always controlled by the Bat Team, giving the enemy no chance to turn the tables.
Fortunately, Scott specifically emphasized that there was no Superman, no Gotham City, and no Arkham, otherwise everyone’s expressions would definitely be even more terrifying.
Finally, after some discussion, everyone made a decision: release the person.
However, there are also some considerations for "releasing" him. It does not mean letting Luke go directly back to the weird DC version of 2012, nor does it mean letting him wander around in this world of 2023.
He was only temporarily under "residential surveillance" at the Avengers base.
The reason for doing this is that Scott said something when asked anxiously: "We don't have much experience with people from other universes, but Dr. Strange must have some."
Everyone thought so too.
The most important thing now is not to deal with this Dark Knight who appeared out of nowhere, but to use the gems to rescue those who have been in despair for five years.
Everyone has lost loved ones and friends, and they have all waited too long.
Natasha has sacrificed her life for this goal without hesitation.
Everything else must come after this.
…
Luke looked at Scott who put a monitoring anklet on his ankle and smiled: "Scott, you said you have been wearing this for several years. How does it feel?"
Scott smiled awkwardly: "Bruce, this is just routine, no one has any ill will towards you."
Luke didn't care: "Don't worry, Scott, you are a good person."
As he said this, he looked up at Dr. Banner, who was behind Scott and helping him install the monitoring anklet. "Dr. Banner, can you fight me sometime?"
Dr. Banner looked at him helplessly: "I am also a good person and never thought of hurting innocent people."
Luke shook his head, "No, you misunderstood. I just wanted to know how powerful Thanos is, and you've fought him head-on."
Dr. Banner habitually evaded the question: "Thor and Tony have also fought Thanos before, and they are much stronger than me. You can ask them."
Luke: "But you are easier to talk to than them. At most you will reject me politely."
Dr. Banner: ... Why can you say such shameless words so openly
In the end, he didn't agree to the request, and Luke didn't insist.
Natasha is dead, and it was very good of Dr. Banner to say these two sentences to him.
If you inform the house in advance, you can find an opportunity to try it later, so it won’t be too abrupt.
After all, it is not easy for anyone to kill Dr. Banner. Even if Luke takes action first, he will not be misunderstood as a sneak attack and murder.
Tony? Never mind.
Even though Luke had a very close relationship with the eldest master in 2012, it was all developed through time and fighting together, but Tony here was a complete stranger.
What is Tony's attitude towards strangers? Well, basically, sarcasm, squinting and contempt are the norm.
Thor? This guy has a fat belly and has no interest in Luke.
So, Dr. Banner is the best choice.
