Chapter 159-163 (2/2)
“Haha, you don’t have to worry about safety, the old man’s health is very good, maybe even better than you.” Hearing Lin Rui’s promise, Tony suddenly smiled and said.
If Tony hadn’t checked Lin Rui’s body last time he was in a coma, he could have been sure that the old man was in better shape than Lin Rui. But after learning about Lin Rui’s physical abilities, Tony is not sure now. After All, Captain Rogers is a Super Soldier.
“Well, what’s the old man’s name? When shall I show him around New York City?” Treating what Tony said as a joke, Lin Rui asks.
If the old man is really in good health, Lin Rui would be more relaxed, at least he wouldn’t have to worry about any problems during the trip. However, even if there is no disease, he should not be very strong at the age of 90.
“I will arrange the time and inform you when and where to meet, but it should be within these two days. As for his name, I’ll let him introduce himself to you when you meet him.” Tony obviously hasn’t arranged anything yet, and he didn’t even tell Lin Rui the old man’s name.
“Ohh~ Okay, I will push things down to the next week.” With a nod, Lin Rui did not mind. Maybe the old man is a very important guy, and it’s normal that Tony doesn’t want to reveal his ident.i.ty in advance.
“Well, that’s it. Now, why don’t you go out with me and play a couple of rounds of golf?” With a nod, Tony got up from his chair and stretched himself.
“Golf? I can’t play!” After hearing Tony’s words, Lin Rui said without knowing why.
“It doesn’t matter if you can’t play, I’ll teach you.” Tony obviously didn’t mind Lin Rui’s skills, he just wants someone to play against.
“All right.” Since Tony is in the mood, Lin Rui doesn’t mind in accompany him. However, Lin Rui thinks he should learn quickly. After all, his body coordination and strength are much better than others.
……
On the gra.s.s behind the villa, a small white golf ball flew far away. It flew far away on the gra.s.s, at least it could not be seen by Tony’s naked eye. Less than half an hour has pa.s.sed since he started playing golf, and Lin Rui has already played dozens of rounds.
“Come on! At this rate, you’re going to finish me off.” Throwing the club aside, Tony said grimly.
At first, Lin Rui really behaved like a novice, holding the club in a non-standard way and standing in a wrong posture as well as swinging the club. However, after Tony’s brief instruction, Lin Rui soon got the hang of it. After the first two Shots, Lin Rui looks like a veteran. Tony just watched Lin Rui hit the ball away with one shot, and Lin Rui seems to not like hitting the ball in the goal but to hit it far away.
“Oh! I’m sorry. I can’t hold back on my strength sometimes.” Putting the clubs away, Lin Rui said, looking at Tony awkwardly. With Lin Rui’s strength at the moment, he can smash a golf ball straight away, But that would be too scary.
“Go home. I won’t play with you again.” Taking off his visor, Tony has walked back to the villa.
As for Lin Rui, he picks up the clubs Tony left behind. He got caught up in the spur of the moment, or he should have given way to Tony.
……
Not long after returning from Tony’s house that day, Lin Rui received a call from Tony. On the phone, Tony told Lin Rui that he was meeting the old man at 9 am tomorrow at the National Memorial in New York. Tony also gave Lin Rui a phone number so he could call when he couldn’t find the old man.
Lin Rui said yes and then he planned the next few days. After all, he is touring with a 90-year-old man. Although he wants to see New York’s modern life, Lin Rui will not really care about his age. Therefore, Lin Rui found some activities that would make him feel modern life and they are not too intense. Lin Rui felt that his arrangement would surely satisfy the old man. After all, he is also a flattering young man.
In this way, Lin Rui came to the National Memorial early the next day. Because it is a holiday, there are still quite a lot of people in the memorial hall. Lin Rui takes a prominent position and waits, glancing at the people pa.s.ses by him, especially the elderly.
However, until nine o’clock, Lin Rui still could not find an old man over 70 years old. Just as Lin Rui was ready to take out his mobile phone, a tall man slowly walked towards Lin Rui wearing a baseball cap.
“Jackson? h.e.l.lo, I am Steve Rogers.”
…..
<hr><hr>
“h.e.l.lo, I’m Steve Rogers. You should be the one that Tony mentioned. I didn’t expect you to be so young. ” Seeing Lin Rui standing there in silence, Steve Rogers introduced himself again.
“Ah! h.e.l.lo! h.e.l.lo! I’m Jackson! ” After Rogers introduced himself twice, Lin Rui finally recovered and reached out to greet Captain America.
Although as a crossed over rebirth person, Lin Rui himself is not a person who especially admires celebrities and he should not have been so shocked. However, when meeting the American national hero, Lin Rui is no better than an ordinary person. After all, this is Captain America! However, Lin Rui is not an ordinary person at all. After the initial shock, he calmed down quickly.
“No wonder Tony didn’t tell me his name. It turns out that the 90-year-old man is Captain America. I thought it was weird that Tony would mention a 90-year-old man and that he needs someone to take care of his modern knowledge problem!” After calming down, Lin Rui also knew how much of a surprise Tony had given himself.
“Mr. Rogers, I don’t know what I should call you now? Captain Rogers? ” Holding Rogers hand, Lin Rui asked with a smile. Now, Lin Rui has lost the shock of seeing Steve Rogers at first. In terms of strength and other aspects, Lin Rui is better than Captain America and he is stronger too. Apart from being a natural leader, Captain America is not much better than Lin Rui.
Seeing the young man in front of him recovering from the shock, Rogers was surprised, but his face did not show it. “Just call me Steve, I am not a Captain now.”
“Okay, Steve. From now on, I will be in charge of your next few days. However, since I didn’t know it was you, the itinerary I made may not be suitable, but New York still has a lot of places for us to go. “No matter why Tony gave the request to himself, Lin Rui was also happy to meet with Captain America.
“Oh, I’ll leave everything to you then. In fact, I have gradually adapted to my current life. This time I asked Tony to help me just to have a little rest. I didn’t expect that he put it on you. ” Rogers said with a smile.
“It seems that Captain Rogers is a trump card played by Nick Fury. It’s no wonder that Tony’s att.i.tude towards S.H.I.E.L.D. has been eased recently.” When he heard Captain Rogers’s words, Lin Rui thought quietly in his heart.
With Captain America in S.H.I.E.L.D., who has also worked with Tony’s father, it’s really easier to pull Tony into the Avengers Alliance. Moreover, it was Nick Fury who dug Rogers out of the ice and resurrected him and gave Rogers the opportunity to continue to fight terrorists after sleeping for sixty years. It can be said that Steve Rogers has a strong sense of belonging to s.h.i.+ELD at this time.
“I’d be very happy to help you. I should be half an expert in this field.” Simply thinking about it, Lin Rui replied with a smile, “so, let’s start? Let’s start with this national memorial. I just came here a while ago. Speaking of this memorial hall, there is… ”
Then, Lin Rui took Captain Rogers to visit the National Memorial. Although Steve Rogers is a living historical figure, there have been many major events in history since his disappearance. Captain Rogers obviously needs to make up for some historical knowledge, which is why Lin Rui chose here as a meeting place.
“Jackson, although I know that Tony must have had a reason to recommend you but you don’t seem to be surprised to see me. I’ve been dead for sixty years. Aren’t you curious at all? May I ask why aren’t you surprised? ” As he lowered the brim of his hat a little, Steve asked as he approached Lin Rui. At last, he could not resist asking his doubts. After all, he was only twenty-nine years old when he put himself in ice and died for the outside world.
“Haha, I always believe that Captain America is not dead. As for why I’m not so surprised to see you, it’s because I know the existence of s.h.i.+ELD. You can inquire about it a little bit after returning. You should be able to get some detailed information about me. I think there should be a lot of records about me in s.h.i.+ELD. ” No turning his head, Lin Rui replied softly. This is the National Memorial Hall. The crowd is still very large and Captain Rogers is only wearing a simple baseball cap, which may cause some minor disturbance if he is seen.
“Oh? You know about S.H.I.E.L.D., but you are obviously not an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. or other subordinates.” Captain Rogers’s eyes flashed and he was getting more and more interested in the ident.i.ty of Lin Rui.
“Captain Rogers, the World War II Memorial is in front of us. There are detailed information about the Howling Commandos and some precious images in it.” Instead of answering Rogers’ questions, Lin Rui pointed to a pavilion in front of him.
The World War II Memorial, Roger had already the Howling Commando’s information here. For those teammates who fought side by side in the war, Rogers had always missed them, but in addition to Rogers’ best friend, Bucky Barnes, his other teammates died in the past 60 years. Only Peggy Carter, Rogers’s first love has remained in this era and she is too old to get up from her bed.
Following Lin Rui silently into the World War II Memorial, Captain Rogers temporarily suppressed the interest in Lin Rui’s ident.i.ty. Although he has been here before, every time he sees the images of the Howling Commando and some video materials of 60 years ago, Rogers unconsciously recalls those memories from 60 years ago which is still feels like yesterday to him.
Although in the eyes of today’s people, these are a very long history, so long that they have to put in the memorial hall to remind everyone. But it’s not the same for Steve. These things are not long ago for him. The sound of gunfire and the smoke of explosion in the battlefield seemed to echo around him, which was why he had been carrying out missions since he woke up because he could not integrate himself into modern quiet life for a while.
Standing in front of a display screen, Captain Rogers looked at the images of himself and the Howling Commando. In this image, he sees his best friend, Bucky, and there are several heroic teammates beside him. At that time, he was just a soldier with a pa.s.sion to destroy Hydra. He didn’t expect to get such a great honor after his “sacrifice”. However, at least Hydra was destroyed and World War II was won.
Seeing Captain Rogers standing there, Lin Rui stood quietly, knowing that Steve Rogers is now reminiscing about his teammates and the past.
When Lin Rui saw Bucky on the screen, he was thinking about another thing. That is Winter Soldier, Bucky Barnes is not dead, but he was captured by Hydra and transformed into the most successful and powerful Winter Soldier. His strength is not worse than Rogers, a super soldier who was injected with the Super Soldier serum.
In order not to let Bucky, a special character, cause unnecessary troubles to Lin Rui in the future, he felt it necessary to find him quickly. However, to find Bucky controlled by Hydra, Lin Rui has to start with s.h.i.+ELD. After all, Hydra is now largely hidden in s.h.i.+ELD, while Lin Rui is not clear about the whole situation.
Moreover, since Captain Rogers has been awakened, the internal cleaning of S.H.I.E.L.D. is obviously going to speed up and Lin Rui will not wait until the arrival of the New York war to solve this problem.
“Let’s go. Let’s go to the next place.” He watched for a long time in front of the screen until the image was replayed again, and Steve finally said to Lin Rui, who was beside him. Then, he stepped out first, and Lin Rui naturally followed him.
“Since Captain Rogers has no requirements for the itinerary, I suggest that the next place we go to is…”
“You can decide the location without telling me in advance. And you don’t have to call me captain. ”
“Haha, I’m not used to it. After all, I grew up listening to your story. ”
Subsequently, Lin Rui and Captain Rogers slowly walked out of the National Memorial. When they left, they didn’t notice that a teenage boy nearby saw Steve deliberately press down his face under the brim of his hat.
“Mom! Captain America!” Pointing towards Lin Rui and Captain Rogers, the little boy shouted at his mother.
“Captain America is over there, and don’t yell in here!”
……
<hr><hr>
The day pa.s.sed quickly. Although Lin Rui’s planned trip last night was totally inappropriate for the situation but the temporary selection of several places was enough to make Rogers, a still 90-year young man, happy. At least Lin Rui thinks so.
With Captain Rogers coming out of a bar that young people like to play, Lin Rui looked out towards the sky and noticed that it was already getting late, so he looked at Captain Rogers and said with a smile: “Captain, we’ll stop here today, I hope you enjoyed yourself today.”
“I did, Jackson.” With a Nod, Rogers smiled and looked at Lin Rui.
Though Steve spent the whole day following Lin Rui around the places that young people like to visit with half of his face covered in front of him, he was able to experience what young people like today. In fact, it is not much different from before, But today’s fun projects are more advanced and more diverse.
“That’s good, Captain, I will go back today and plan for the next few days.” Lin Rui was also happy to hear Steve say that.
“Well, then I will see you tomorrow, Jackson.” Captain Rogers smiled and was ready to leave alone. However, just when he turned halfway, Lin Rui suddenly stopped him again.
“That, Captain, can you give me a few autographs? I have a few good friends who are your fans.” Lin Rui suddenly asked when Rogers turned around.
“Haha, of course.” Upon hearing Lin Rui’s request, Captain Rogers smiled and agreed.
……
After almost an hour, Lin Rui returned home with a few autographs signed by Captain Rogers. In addition to what Lin Rui asked for, Lin Rui also reserved some signatures for Peter and Harry. Lin Rui knew that Peter adored Captain America. Harry, though not as much as Peter, he also admired the American hero.
Buzz~
Shortly after Lin Rui got home, his mobile phone in his pocket started to vibrate. Taking out the mobile phone to see who’s calling. It’s Tony.
“Hey! Mr. stark! I didn’t expect you to give me such a big surprise. This 90-year-old man really surprised me! ” Pick up the phone, Lin Rui said briskly.
“It seems that you get along well. I didn’t expect this old popsicle could play with such a modern young man like you.” Tony at the other side seemed to be unhappy with Lin Rui’s happy mood and said faintly.
“Thank you, Mr. Stark. I know that the resurrection of Captain Rogers must be in a confidential stage now. Don’t worry, I won’t tell others. ” He seems to have heard some unhappiness from Tony’s tone of voice, It seems that Tony and Captain Rogers don’t get along so well, but Lin Rui doesn’t care, and then promises.
“Haha, I don’t care whether you keep it secret or not. This is s.h.i.+ELD’s business. However, with the old popsicle joining in, it seems that the plan is still possible. ” Tony at the other end of the phone smiled and then revealed something about the formation of Avengers alliance from s.h.i.+ELD.
After learning that Lin Rui is not an ordinary person and that his strength is unusual, Tony no longer keeps the mysterious organization s.h.i.+ELD as a secret to Lin Rui. In addition to some special secrets, Tony will also selectively talk to Lin Rui about s.h.i.+ELD. On the one hand, Tony can let Lin Rui know what kind of organization s.h.i.+ELD is. On the other hand, Lin Rui can also give himself some suggestions. After all, these things are not good for Tony to tell pepper, at least not until all decisions are made.
“Although Mr. Stark hasn’t told me what s.h.i.+ELD’s plan is but if you are concerned about it, it’s better to wait a little longer. Also, you can use this time to get rid of your concerns, I believe you have the time and strength to do this.” Lin Rui certainly knows what Tony is hiding, so his suggestion is to let Tony solve the problem of the Hydra within s.h.i.+ELD first.
“Well, I’ve been doing this all the time. I’m sure the results will come out soon. Let’s see then.” Tony at the other end of the phone said with a faint grace, “That’s it. Since you get along well with that old iceman, he will be handed over to you for the next week. Save him from bothering me.”
“I know, Mr. Stark.” Lin Rui, who is holding the phone, bends up unconsciously and responds.
Then Lin Rui simply said something else that didn’t matter and hung up. After Tony’s call, Lin Rui is lost in thought.
Although the things between Peter and Harry are still very tangled but now the problem inside S.H.I.E.L.D. needs to be solved quickly! If Tony did not completely eliminate HYDRA from S.H.I.E.L.D. before he decided to join S.H.I.E.L.D., then there was something wrong with the latter.
After all, Lin Rui is not the one who plans to follow the plot. The system has disappeared. Lin Rui not only needs the reward points to strengthen himself but also needs reward points to revive the system. The way to get a large number of reward points is to do many hidden quests and achieve some special achievements besides completing the main line quest. As for the hidden quest and achievements, these are not true to follow the plot. Maybe getting involved in the original plot will make things more unstable and dangerous, but Lin Rui has no other way at this time. In order to make himself stronger and revive the system, Lin Rui decided to make some troubles in the Marvel world.
“Hydra, if the system was still there, maybe I wouldn’t have bothered you so early. But now is not the time for you to continue to lurk around anymore. ” Sitting at the table, Lin Rui looks through the window and whispers to the dark night sky outside.
Lin Rui can be sure that this must be a hidden quest and a huge one which will give me a lot of reward points. Maybe with Lin Rui’s strength at this time, he can’t fight Hydra who has developed for so many years alone, but he’s not alone. He has his own team and friends, as well as the strength of s.h.i.+ELD.
In addition to Vigilante in League of Defender, Tony is also a great help to Lin Rui. What’s more, now Captain Rogers is also resurrected. Because of the battle between Captain Rogers and Hydra and the hatred that they killed his best friend, when he knows that hydra is lurking inside s.h.i.+ELD, he will do anything to remove them.
Unconsciously, Lin Rui has also grown to the point where he is something more than a regular Vigilante. Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, Mirage Knight is just a Vigilante that fights gangs and helps street victims. But in the eyes of others, the ident.i.ty of Mirage Knight is not just that simple.
In this way, simply thinking about how to deal with Hydra, Lin Rui went to bed and fell asleep in meditation. Without a lot of Reward points, Lin Rui can only rely on meditation step by step to enhance his strength.
……
After Lin Rui returned home, Captain Rogers did not return home, but returned to the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D. For today’s day with Lin Rui, Captain Rogers is very interested in this young man. And Lin Rui was introduced by Tony, and Rogers wanted to see the details of the young man. Therefore, Steve quickly transferred all the information about Jackson Lin inside S.H.I.E.L.D.
“High IQ, high emotional intelligence, excellent results, a wide range of interests, and deep relations.h.i.+p with Tony Stark, often help Tony Stark carry out some physics experiments. Now counted as the third sequence talent of s.h.i.+ELD and is being closely watched.” Looking carefully at the file, Captain Rogers was not surprised by some basic information about Jackson inside s.h.i.+ELD.
“Oh? There is also an accident that happened not long ago. In the study of a first-cla.s.s event, Jackson Lin was accidentally struck by lightning and recovered five minutes after his heart stopped. On the second day when doctors and nurses all judged that he would become a vegetable, Jackson Lin miraculously woke up again without obvious injury. It’s a little strange, but it’s not entirely impossible. ” Looking at the notes of that level of the event, Captain Rogers thought in silence. Then he continued to look.
“The machine recording Jackson Lin’s life state recorded an unusual brain wave activity when he was in a coma. After a.n.a.lysis by experts in neurology and physiology, it is preliminarily determined that the development of Jackson Lin’s brain domain is far greater than that of ordinary people. We will continue to closely observe it.” This is all the investigation data s.h.i.+ELD has on Lin Rui, although the biggest secret of Lin Rui has not been involved yet. But this is already enough.
“It seems that this Jackson kid is not an ordinary person. Is brain development possible? This is something that even Super-Soldier serum can’t do. ” Turning off the on-screen information about Lin Rui, Captain Rogers muttered.
“In this way, It isn’t that weird for Tony to pay so much attention to him. But does he know the secret of this kid.” Putting the tablet on the table, Captain Rogers blinked and said to himself. Then, as he came, he walked out of the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D. and went home.
