Chapter 77 To: A Bright Tomorrow!
Chapter 77 To: A Bright Tomorrow!
(Don't laugh, I think it's kind of cheesy too, but don't worry, I'll start getting the real stuff tomorrow!)
Laugh for two days.
Hanlu rubbed her head, feeling uncomfortable.
He had said long ago that he didn't drink alcohol, but he was forced by a group of people to drink some red wine.
Because the atmosphere was so lively, he didn't use any ability to sober up, and then... he somehow ended up here.
He sat up sleepily, facing the warm sunlight streaming through the window, and rubbed his eyes vaguely, trying to wake himself up.
But when he caught a glimpse of the clock on the wall out of the corner of his eye, he was instantly stunned.
and many more!
"It's already 10 o'clock!!!!"
Belfast, who had come with his companions to wake his captain, was outside the door.
She hadn't forgotten how arrogantly Hanlu had carried a can of vodka, stood on the stage, pointed at everyone, and declared she was going to take down the other side, and then...
He was the first to fall.
There's nothing I can do; he really can't drink.
Although the two ship girls were happy to get close to the captain, they did not intend to take things further under those circumstances—after all, it was better to wait until both of them were more sober.
When Belfast arrived at the door, having estimated the time, and gently knocked, he heard a flurry of hurried noises coming from inside.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Okay, okay, we agreed to leave at eight..."
"Commander, are you awake? Everyone is waiting for you."
"Ah! Belfast! Almost there, I'm getting dressed, I'll be right out!"
Feeling a strange sense of panic, as if her little secret had been exposed, Hanlu glanced around the somewhat messy room and ultimately gave up on tidying up.
As a rabbit-shaped mark flashed in his eyes, countless geometric lines danced in the room—scattered clothes were instantly hung on hangers, and messy blankets were folded into imperfect squares.
When everything was tidied up, he stood with his hands on his hips and looked at his handsome self in the mirror. The toothpaste and toothbrush on the sink were trembling slightly along with the glass.
"Great! Cool!"
He put his hands on his hips and struck a slightly smug pose.
But looking at that typical post-apocalyptic survival outfit in the mirror... should I change into something else?
After thinking about it, I decided to pass on it, based on my own artistic taste.
Just then, he noticed the large group photo pressed under the frame of the glasses.
He picked it up with some emotion, and everything from that night came flooding back: everyone standing together cheering, and that guy Zemo even went out of his way to have someone take a picture.
In the photo, the heroes are cheering with various bottles of liquor, while he himself is being hugged and tossed into the air by the crowd.
Looking at himself, raising a wine glass high in the air, completely unaware that the wine had spilled all over his face, he felt a strange sense of shame.
Damn it, I'm never drinking it again.
I carefully wiped away a little stain from the photo with my sleeve, placed it neatly on the bedside table, and even moved it a little further in.
well.
Time to go!
Hanlu thought to herself.
But he felt something was missing.
after all……
He's not stupid.
Someone needs his assurance.
So...
Hanlu thought for a moment, then grabbed a fountain pen and entered overclocking mode again, writing and drawing at lightning speed.
After finishing, he placed the paper in the most conspicuous position on his bedside table and covered one corner with a photo.
Is that alright now?
"Okay, okay, stop knocking, I'm coming."
Just as Belfast was about to knock on the door again, the door suddenly opened with a "whoosh," and out jumped our protagonist.
"Belfast, how's everyone doing?"
"Commander, they are all ready. The spaceship is on standby on the platform and can depart at any time."
"Spaceship? Oh right... Belfast, please keep watch here with Enterprise for now. The rest... wait for our good news."
Hanlu was still in a bit of a hurry. After leaving those words, she disappeared from Belfast's sight in an instant, causing the maid ship girl to chuckle.
"Well then, let's go see if the Enterprise CEO has woken up yet..."
The Cold Dew season arrives swiftly, passing in the blink of an eye.
As the clock struck 10:01, the group standing on the platform in front of the circular sightseeing ship that Thor had "borrowed" from the Grandmaster were somewhat puzzled.
Did you play too wildly yesterday?
However, when the clock struck 10:02, Hanlu, all ready to go, appeared before everyone and even had time to take out two bottles of cola from the cafeteria refrigerator.
—No, it seems like you can just create them directly using your abilities?
John casually took the bottle that Hanlu handed him.
"We've been waiting for you. Shall we set off?"
Hanlu nodded, glanced at the group, and casually tossed a bottle of wine to both Valkyrie and Thor.
As for Loki, who was watching eagerly from the sidelines...
Hmm, I didn't see it.
gone!
"This is an outer space mission, so we are only sending personnel who can operate in a space environment."
Given the previous incident with Doctor Doom, Icarus will stay and carry out the plan agreed upon yesterday.
"Okay, no problem. It's time to get going," Hanlu said with a smile.
"Alright guys! Now, let's go save the world!!"
Perhaps because John and Hanlu were still somewhat reserved, their conversation was rather polite, but Thor didn't care about that—he held his hammer in one hand (he had already placed the battle axe in the spaceship beforehand, and almost got hit by the axe, but it was a minor incident), and at this moment he had teleported between the two of them, his two bear-like hands grabbing them on the left and right, and directly pushing the two of them onto the spaceship.
Behind them, Valkyrie and Loki rolled their eyes in exasperation.
……
Inside the newly built laboratory, Banner was adjusting the equipment in front of him, directing the only two people with scientific minds, Lily, a black woman, and Spider-Man, to move items. At the same time, he casually "conjured" a bunch of rare minerals, which made Spider-Man's eyes light up.
"This is a little gift that Mr. Hanlu left me—it can directly convert the materials I know. To be honest, it's amazing, and very unscientific."
"He's always been very unscientific."
Banner was deeply moved by the casual conversation between the two young people.
Just then, a roar came from outside the window. Everyone looked up and saw a spaceship streaking across the sky like a shooting star, heading straight into space.
……
Icarus was slightly disappointed at not being able to join the space search team, but it was a decision made out of necessity.
Having experienced the Doctor Doom incident, everyone was left with a shadow in their hearts, but they still had to go into battle with enough fighting power.
Therefore, leaving behind the twelve talismans and Icarus was undoubtedly the best choice.
As for why it was Icarus?
"Hurry up! You think you can be a superhero with that kind of stamina?"
Hanlu believes you possess the power to overturn the world!
Think about tomorrow, think about the future—jump for joy!
Icarus looked at the thin man in front of him, his tone slightly dissatisfied.
Fortunately, Yelena gently advised Bob, "Actually, I think we can take it a little more gradually; he hasn't fully adapted yet..."
A golden light flashed in Icarus's eyes.
No, I will help him.
Bob looked on in horror as someone appeared beside him as if by teleportation and grabbed his shoulder.
"I'll help you 'go to heaven,' okay?"
Amidst a series of gasps, Bob was involuntarily propelled into the sky along with Icarus, flying away alongside the sun—
However, for these two individuals who are destined to become "supermen," this level of achievement is nothing at all.
As he took to the air, Icarus also saw the rainbow-like streak of light gradually receding into the distance.
"Keep it up!"
……
There was a time when I also dreamed of becoming a superhero.
Classroom. Shopping mall. Roadside.
Those dreams and aspirations that embodied countless childhood fantasies gradually faded away as I entered society.
I came to terms with reality, and I felt ashamed of it.
Fortunately, when I finally stood at the crossroads of changing the world, I found that I still held onto that childhood hope.
I can go crazy for my past dreams one more time without hesitation.
At least for now, I still admire heroes!
Zemo, who had appeared in Hanlu's room at some unknown time, smiled as he read the letter that was pressed under the photograph.
He raised his head and looked up at the fading light in the sky.
"Have a safe journey, my friend."
Zemo looked away, but suddenly noticed a line of small print on the back of the letter:
A letter to a certain panicked villain: Oh, and a friendly reminder, Belfast usually comes to clean the rooms around this time, so run!
Zemo was stunned for a moment, and before he could figure out what was going on, he received a light tap on the back of the head.
He cooperated perfectly by "fainting." Meanwhile, Belfast, now dressed as a maid and having woken up Enterprise who was still rubbing his sleepy eyes, was watching the Baron fall to the ground with a smile.
……
The Cold Dew solar term, which is close to the Earth-Moon orbit, has turned back.
He knew nothing about what was happening in prison, but he could guess a few things.
At that moment, he looked down at the dazzling blue gem.
His journey has only just begun!
At least for now—
He's a hero!
.........
some universe.
A man with noticeably thick hair and a nonchalant expression is sitting on a sofa, casually tossing a tennis ball in his hand, but a closer look reveals the intricate patterns on the ball.
Just as he was getting a little bored, a portal suddenly appeared beside him, and the man became curious as Doctor Doom emerged from it, his body radiating a bloodthirsty aura.
"What? In that universe, are there any guys who can cause you trouble?"
"Shut up, Owen. That universe is special. There's a clearly special outsider in it."
Doctor Doom slowly removed his mask, revealing a weathered face.
Everything was so familiar, but the scar in the lower right corner was particularly noticeable.
Doctor Doom placed his mask on the table, next to a photograph.
The photo shows a man, a woman, and two children, also a man and a woman.
How happy they were!
Doom's trembling hands rearranged the family photo.
"You in that universe are dead, completely devoured by zombies, and in no danger whatsoever. And another thing! If you dare play with antimatter bombs in my house again, I'll throw you into space!"
(The following is the molecular man's battle record, and there's a lot more, too much to fit here. It's just a crazy stacking of boxes, anyway, it's pretty awesome.)
