Chapter 286: Qin Wants to Be a Superhero
Chapter 286: Qin Wants to Be a Superhero
Karl quickly spoke up to distance himself.
"Of course not, who do you take me for?"
Wanda was so angry that she just said a series of words starting with F.
"Fuxx"
Karl just listened expressionlessly, and when she got tired of scolding him, he jumped on the horse.
There is an old saying: You can't reason with an angry woman, you have to use a more direct approach.
"Asshole, let me go!!"
While struggling, Wanda wanted to unleash the power of chaos to shake someone away.
But at the critical moment, she suddenly trembled all over, and all her strength was drained away at once, even the power of chaos was held back.
After three consecutive root canal treatments, Carl finally managed to subdue this unruly girl.
At this moment, Wanda was sweating profusely and her mind was blank.
As her strength gradually recovered, she stared at the ceiling in a daze, as if she had not yet woken up from last night's nightmare.
But the weakness of my body clearly told me that all this was real.
In particular, when Wanda thought about the latter part, she couldn't help but respond.
"Damn bastard scumbag"
Wanda was cursing someone madly in her heart, and she also blamed herself for not living up to her expectations.
Fireworks just went off in my head.
I couldn't help but babbling nonsense. Hurry up.
Carl lit a cigarette with his right hand and slowly blew out a smoke ring, while his other hand was not idle either.
"By the way, what were you knocking on the door for last night?"
Wanda's pretty face was still flushed. She turned around silently without saying a word, trying to use this silent way to resist the evil hand.
Karl’s tone turned cold, “No reply? Do you want to try my root canal treatment again?”
Seeing that he was beginning to threaten people, Wanda subconsciously shrank into the corner of the bed, pulled the quilt up to cover herself, and replied sullenly:
"I had a nightmare last night, and it was about you."
Carl became curious, "What nightmare?"
Wanda covered her shoulders with the quilt to prevent herself from being attacked again.
At the same time, he continued, "I dreamed that you established the Umbrella Company. I also dreamed that I was kidnapped by you."
Carl was unhappy when he heard this.
"Are you making fun of me?"
"and many more!"
He reacted.
"You just said that you dreamed that I founded the Umbrella Corporation?"
Obviously, Carl had never told her anything about the universe he was in.
But Wanda could actually dream about it?
He believed this was no coincidence.
"Yes, I not only dreamed about you founding the Umbrella Corporation, but also about Crystal, Skye, and several other women whose names I can't remember!"
Wanda's words made Carl's face light up.
"There is only one reason why you can dream about things in my universe."
Wanda narrowed her eyes, she was also curious about the reason.
Carl then explained: "It must be the Wanda I am familiar with. Her strength is close to the multiverse level."
"She is unconsciously assimilating the consciousness of all her counterparts in parallel universes."
"That's why it affected you and made you have a real dream."
Hearing the word assimilation, Wanda asked confusedly: "If I am assimilated, does that mean I will forget Vision?"
Carl shook his head and said, “No, this kind of assimilation will only give you one more memory, which is the beautiful memory of Wanda and I.”
"It has almost no effect on you."
Wanda was relieved, but thinking of the nightmare last night, she asked with a dark face: "Are you sure there is no impact, what if I have nightmares every night?"
Carl thought for a moment and said, "This assimilation will probably last for a long time. After all, it is not easy to reach multiverse-level strength."
"As for what to do if you have a nightmare, it's not a big problem. You can relax your mind in the dream and actively accept this memory."
"Once you inherit all the memories, you shouldn't have real dreams anymore."
Wanda glared: "Accept this memory? That's not my experience at all, why should I accept it?"
Carl took a deep puff of his cigarette and blew out a long stream of smoke.
"You can choose not to accept it, but you will continue to dream every night. If you don't care, feel free to do so."
Wanda looked unhappy. She was very disgusted with accepting a strange memory.
"Is there no way to assimilate and isolate this consciousness?"
"Of course!" Carl said with certainty.
"Wait until you improve your strength to the level of a single universe, or learn some kind of consciousness protection magic."
"There is a solution to every problem. If you can't find it, then you're not strong enough."
Wanda sighed. When she heard about the issue of strength, she knew that she would probably have to accept the fact that she would have nightmares every night for a short period of time.
After chatting for so long, Karl looked at the time and it was already past five in the afternoon.
"Stop hiding in bed, wash up and have dinner."
After saying that, he ignored Wanda's struggle, picked her up by the waist and walked into the bathroom.
When I came out of the bathroom, it was exactly seven o'clock in the evening.
Wanda walked to the dining table awkwardly and sat down, her eyes numb, staring at the dinner in front of her without wanting to say a word.
My voice became hoarse just now from shouting in the bathroom
Karl had just sat down and asked curiously, "Where are Qin and Daisy?"
Qin went out in the morning and never came back.
He originally thought that Qin just went out shopping or had a beauty treatment or something, so why didn’t she come back so late?
Wanda took a sip of grape juice to moisten her dry throat, not wanting to bother with that jerk.
Carl shook his head and laughed. He didn't continue to worry about where Qin had gone. He picked up the cutlery and was about to eat a few bites.
"Ding dong, ding dong!"
The suite doorbell suddenly rang.
Judging from the mental fluctuations of the person outside the door, it should be Qin and Daisy who have returned.
"Not bad, you still remember to come back at dinner time."
Carl used telekinesis to open the door of the suite.
"Honey? Where are you?"
Qin and Daisy called out for Carl and searched the presidential suite anxiously.
Finally I found Carl and Wanda having dinner in the restaurant.
"Why don't you answer?"
Carl slowly enjoyed the thick-cut black pepper steak in front of him, and looked up at the two women who looked anxious.
"What's wrong? Sit down and have a meal first, then we can talk slowly."
The two women hadn't eaten for a whole day, and now Qin and Daisy were facing a table full of delicious food. They couldn't hold back their hunger any longer, so they sat down without hesitation and started to feast.
Daisy, who didn't care about her appearance, was eating voraciously, her cheeks puffed up like a hamster, and she was mumbling:
"Today we went to London early in the morning and accidentally saw Mysterio and Spider-Man fighting each other."
"In the end, Mysterio actually revealed Spider-Man's true identity."
Carl, who was sitting next to him, just took a few bites casually, then put down the knife and fork in his hand with some disgust.
The western food in this hotel is a bit boring and it doesn't whet your appetite at all.
"Can you get to the point?" Carl frowned and said impatiently.
Seeing this, Qin quickly took over the conversation and explained: "It's mainly because we met a very special person when we were in London."
"She works at the Museum of London. She's a curator at the museum. Her name is Circe."
"While we were visiting the museum, we happened to see a fierce battle between Spider-Man and Mysterio."
"Many innocent people were affected. We couldn't bear to watch it, so we stepped in to help resolve the mystery man."
Speaking of this, a hint of pride flashed in Qin's eyes. Her strength is still as strong as ever.
"Perhaps Sersi saw our act of saving people and thought we were trustworthy, so she revealed a big secret that concerns the safety of the whole world!"
When it came to the key point, Qin deliberately paused for a while, looking at Carl with cunning eyes, trying to whet his appetite.
However, Karl just listened quietly, without much change in expression on his face.
After Qin finished speaking, he just nodded calmly, as if he had expected everything.
"Could this so-called big secret be that the baby god in the core of the earth is about to be born?"
"How do you know?" Hearing this, Qin was so surprised that the fork in her hand stopped in mid-air, her eyes full of disbelief.
Daisy became even more confused.
"Did you predict this? Can you really predict the future like Qin said?"
Carl picked up a napkin, wiped his mouth gently, glanced at Qin who was being framed, and had no intention of blaming her.
He just stared at the two women and said seriously, "We don't need to worry about this. Even if the earth is really destroyed, I will take you to another parallel universe."
Daisy felt nervous after hearing this, and cautiously asked, "But...but my relatives are all on Earth."
"And there are so many innocent people. Can you just watch the earth being destroyed and do nothing?"
Karl's mouth corners slightly raised, and he said as if jokingly: "I can really remain indifferent, but I don't think I said I would take you with me, right?"
"You just want to stay on Earth and save the world. How could I let you be a deserter?"
His tone was half true and half false, making it difficult for people to figure out his true thoughts.
"What?" Daisy widened her eyes, totally unsure whether he really didn't want to take her away.
She was a little flustered, and quickly put on a flattering smile, trying to persuade Karl:
"My dear, with your strength, are you afraid of a baby god who hasn't been born yet? You must have a way to solve it, right?"
There was a hint of pleading in her voice, hoping to impress Carl.
Faced with Daisy's provocation, Carl just smiled and was not moved at all.
"Your little tricks won't work on me. People who meddle in other people's affairs usually don't end up well. Sometimes, you can live more comfortably if you have a heart of stone."
As he spoke, his eyes revealed a kind of indifference, as if nothing in the world could cause him any ripples.
Hearing this, Daisy's heart completely sank. She knew that no matter how much she persuaded Carl, he would not change his mind.
She hesitated at the dining table for a long time, feeling very conflicted.
Finally, Daisy gritted her teeth, made up her mind, turned around and prepared to leave.
"I'm sorry, but I still can't ignore seven billion lives. I have to stay." There was a hint of determination in her voice.
Karl crossed his hands on the dining table and just looked at her leisurely, without any intention of keeping her.
Daisy thought that her tactic of retreating in order to advance would force Carl to help.
But I didn't expect that this bastard would be so cold-blooded and wouldn't even say a polite word to keep me.
She felt disappointed and conflicted. Should she leave or not?
Words that are spoken are like water that is poured out.
If she takes it back, won't Daisy have any dignity left?
There was no other choice, Daisy could only grit her teeth and continue walking towards the restaurant entrance.
Every step I took felt extremely heavy, as if I was carrying the weight of the entire world on my shoulders.
Seeing her good sister's lonely back, Qin's eyes showed a hint of worry.
She turned her head and asked softly, "Honey, are you really not going to help?"
Carl was more patient when facing Qin, with whom he had been friends for many years.
"Don't worry, the Earth will not be destroyed. This incident was caused by the Eternals. They will naturally solve this big problem of the Celestial Baby."
"You just need to stay in the hotel peacefully. When you are bored, you can go shopping, get beauty treatments, watch movies, or do whatever you want."
"Anyway, just stay out of those superhero shit!"
Qin nodded her head in pretended agreement.
"The lives of humans in this world have nothing to do with me. I won't meddle in their affairs."
Carl was a little surprised to hear this, this was not like Qin's character.
"You're not trying to sneak out and be the savior, are you?"
Qin, whose inner plan was exposed, said somewhat awkwardly, "I will try my best. Mainly because it's too boring to stay in the hotel. I also want to find something meaningful to do."
Karl thought about it and decided to let her go.
Anyway, the matter of the gods has been resolved in the original time and space.
Now there is an additional helper, Jean, who possesses a fragment of the Phoenix force and whose strength is comparable to that of a god.
The Eternals plus Daisy and Jean, this configuration is enough to fight against the gods head-on, there shouldn't be any problems.
"Okay, then go and play the savior for fun. I probably won't be able to accompany you during this period anyway."
"I also have to urge Wanda to find the person I want to find as soon as possible."
Hearing that Carl agreed to let her move freely, Qin excitedly assured:
"Don't worry, I will do my best. Leave the matter of the gods to me and Sister Daisy."
Since coming to this universe, Jean has often heard breaking news about superheroes saving the world.
She has long wanted to experience the feeling of being a superhero and being the center of attention.
Especially after having a taste of being a superhero in London, she became even more interested in this kind of fun.
At the dining table, Wanda was eating silently with her head down, and she didn't want to say a word to Carl.
But as a genuine superhero of the Avengers, how could she remain indifferent when hearing about such a major event that concerns the safety of all mankind?
So she quickly interrupted.
"I can help, too. As an Avenger, how can I turn a blind eye to such a major event?"
Karl shook his head repeatedly and said, “No, your most important task now is to use the dream walking technique to help me find someone.”
"Besides, there's no need to bother the famous Avengers for help with such a small matter. Jean and Daisy are enough."
Seeing Carl staring at her with ill intentions, Wanda knew that if she dared to say another word of nonsense, she would not be able to sleep tonight.
