Sure enough, no one gets up early without a reason.
Unexpectedly, Tony still remembered their previous collaboration.
Although Mike had given up on street heroes, seeing Tony's eager expression, he still said, "Alright, two treatments."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Tony put on his faceplate and prepared to take off.
Just then, HitGirl, who had been eavesdropping, ran up to Mike with a small backpack containing weapons on her back and pleaded, "I've never seen a mutant before, can I come with you? I promise I won't cause you any trouble."
At the same time, HitGirl also used her charm by blinking her big eyes and acting cute.
An attempt to soften Mike's heart.
“No, you stay home…” Mike, who was already used to Killer Girl’s personality, didn’t take the bait at all, and then said, “Also, remember to finish your homework today. I’ll check it when I get back.”
"What the hell~" HitGirl's eyes lost their light after being rejected, and she wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
"Haha, Moritz. Why don't you ask Uncle Tony? Maybe I'll soften and take you out to play." Looking at the little girl's cute appearance, Tony couldn't help but tease her.
"Tch~" Hitgirl rolled her eyes, ignoring Tony completely, then went to the table and took out her textbook.
Looks like I'm planning to do my homework.
"Alright, let's go." Seeing that the little girl had calmed down, Mike called Tony and flew out of the villa.
"Don't think you can just leave me like this. I'll see what you've all been up to..."
After Mike and the other person disappeared, Hit-Girl immediately threw aside her textbook and pulled out a super-thin laptop sponsored by Tony from her bag.
With the hacking techniques activated, Hit-Girl quickly monitored Mike's movements after he left using street cameras.
After doing all that, the little girl ran to the refrigerator and grabbed some sparkling drinks and snacks.
Then he kicked off his shoes, snuggled comfortably into the sofa with his laptop, and started watching the show.
Meanwhile, Mike, led by Tony, crossed the city center and headed south to the Bronx.
A poor, disorganized, and densely populated population, along with an ever-increasing crime rate.
This makes it another version of Hell's Kitchen.
However, the larger area makes the overall situation here a bit better than Hell's Kitchen.
"Oh my, look what I found, two poor stray cats." Using the AI assistant Jarvis to locate him, Tony pinpointed his target on the outermost edge of this slum.
A young girl dressed in red, and a young boy with unconventional white hair.
The two young people seemed to have only been here a short time, and their demeanor was clearly out of place here.
"So, where are your families? Do you need any help?" Tony landed in front of the two young men with a dashing pose.
It seems they wanted to show their heroic side.
“Tony Stark?” The girl’s voice carried a hint of barely concealed anger.
Tony, however, was too pleased with himself to notice this and then said in a flamboyant manner, "It's nice that you know me. Need an autograph?"
In Apple City today, Iron Man's fame is not much less than that of the Guardians.
Especially after Tony puts on his armor, he can quickly attract a crowd whenever he appears in public.
Of course, Tony himself also enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.
However, this time, he clearly overlooked one point: the two young men in front of him did not have admiration in their eyes, but rather a sense of hatred.
Then, Scarlet Witch's eyes lit up red, and she exchanged a glance with her brother Quicksilver.
Then the two of them launched an attack on Iron Man in perfect unison.
"What's going on?" Tony, who was expecting to enjoy the admiration of the two young men, was a little confused when he saw the angry expressions on their faces.
Then, to his surprise, the white-haired boy suddenly disappeared from his sight.
Immediately afterwards, a barrage of attacks erupted from the steel armor.
"Is this all you've got, Runaway Boy? But with speed alone, you can't defeat the great Iron Man..." Tony, who had just upgraded his new armor's defenses, couldn't help but quip after realizing that Quicksilver's attack was just a false alarm: "By the way, you red-eyed girl over there, what's your power?"
At this moment, Scarlet Witch, who had already arrived in front of Iron Man, clearly had no interest in exchanging words.
She conjured red chaotic magic in her hands and slapped it across Tony's face.
As the mind control took effect, Tony quickly became confused.
It can be said that the attack came from a psychological perspective, striking right at Tony's only "weakness".
He should have had a high chance of avoiding Scarlet Witch's mind control thanks to the armor's agility.
It was only because he underestimated his opponent, or rather, because Tony never intended to attack the two young men in the first place, that he was caught off guard and instantly found himself in trouble.
Of course, as a superhero, Tony's willpower isn't too bad.
In the brief moment when he was under the control of the chaotic magic, a sliver of clarity remained in his mind.
They successfully sent a distress signal to Mike.
Meanwhile, the commotion attracted the attention of many people around.
Mike, who was already planning to make a move, activated his ability instantly after receiving Tony's distress signal, pulling everyone, including Scarlet Witch, into the Mirror Dimension.
Then a pure white magic whip flew out, binding Quicksilver, who was moving at high speed, into a dumpling.
As for the Scarlet Witch, who possesses powerful chaos magic, she was trapped inside a magic wall that appeared out of nowhere.
[Chaos Magic (Trait)]...[Reality Modification (Trait)]...[Mind Control (Trait)]...[Probability Manipulation (Trait)]...
[Supersonic Movement (Trait)]...[High-Speed Reaction (Trait)]...[Super Brain (Trait)]...[Penetrating Objects (Trait)]...[Airflow Control (Trait)]...[Time Jump (Trait)]...
It has to be said that the abilities of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are both incredibly powerful.
In particular, Scarlet Witch's potential is not bad even among a group of cosmic-level powerhouses.
It's a pity that both of them are still quite young, and Scarlet Witch hasn't fully developed her potential yet.
That's how Mike easily got his hands on him.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me the moment we met?" Tony from the Disaster Relief Agency approached the siblings and said, "This should be the first time we've met. I don't remember having any deep-seated hatred between us."
The hatred in the eyes of the two young men seemed genuine.
This is what's really frustrating for Tony.
"You executioner, you're the one who destroyed our home!" The Scarlet Witch, imprisoned by the magic wall, still glared fiercely at Tony.
Quicksilver, on the other hand, was much more obedient, looking like he was following his sister's lead.
"I don't even know where you guys are from, how did you become executioners?" Tony asked, puzzled.
"Jellicoe missile, do you dare say this isn't a weapon manufactured by your Stark Industries? My homeland was destroyed because of the weapons you made..." Scarlet Witch berated Tony.
Chapter 668 Lost Memories
As far back as Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver can remember, they were Gypsies living in Kosovia.
The Fokosovia War then broke out, mercilessly dragging the two children, who were still minors at the time, into great danger.
The two men will never forget the fear they felt when the Jericho missile fell in front of them that day.
If that missile hadn't unexpectedly become a dud, the two siblings would probably have died in that war long ago.
Yes, the two of them are very lucky.
A man who could control magnetic fields and metals saved them.
Although the man with the same white hair as Quicksilver ultimately only left the two siblings with a glimpse of his back.
It was that tall, imposing figure that led the two children, who had no prior memory of him, to unexpectedly mistake him for a family member.
Then, after making inquiries, the two siblings learned each other's names—Eric.
That is, "Magneto," a powerful mutant.
In the years that followed, the two grown-up children slowly followed Magneto's trail to Apple City.
During this time, the two gradually awakened their respective abilities.
Shortly after arriving in Apple City, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver noticed Tony frequently appearing on the plaza screens, along with the Stark Industries logo he represented.
The same markings were on the Jericho missile that had once appeared on the battlefield and caused the siblings immense fear.
This also brought back the memories of the past for the siblings.
So, the siblings, who had already awakened their superpowers, decided to take revenge on Tony Stark, who created the Jericho missile, while searching for Magneto.
What the siblings didn't expect was that their enemy would actually come to them.
It's fair to say that if Mike hadn't happened to be with Tony today, he would have definitely suffered a great loss.
“Kosovia? I don’t recall Stark Industries selling weapons to Kosovia…” After listening to Scarlet Witch’s explanation, Tony frowned. “I understand now, it must be Obadiah. They’ve been secretly involved in arms smuggling for money.”
This was an unexpected disaster for Tony.
Most importantly, Obadiah is now dead, and it is impossible to verify the circumstances at that time.
"I'm sorry, Stark Industries' weapons caused you so much harm. But I've now shut down the weapons division. I promise you nothing that happened will ever happen again." After explaining the situation, Tony solemnly apologized to the siblings.
After all, Tony, as the leader, couldn't escape responsibility for the stupid things Obadiah did back then.
At the very least, he has to bear the blame for mismanagement.
Therefore, the apology at this time is reasonable.
"Mike, let them go. If they still want revenge, I'll accept it." After thinking everything through, Tony showed the responsibility he should have.
Seeing Tony's open and honest demeanor, Mike finally released the siblings from their restraints. However, as a friend, he remained prepared to come to their rescue at any time.
"Sister, why don't we just let it go?" Quicksilver, now free, went to Scarlet Witch's side and whispered his advice.
The current situation is that the Jericho missile is now a mess, and dwelling on it won't benefit anyone.
Moreover, apart from being frightened at the time, the siblings did not actually suffer any real losses.
Scarlet Witch glanced at Mike standing beside her and realized that getting revenge today would probably be difficult.
With a cold expression, he looked at Tony and said, "You're lucky today. Don't let me see you again."
It's clear that although Scarlet Witch's expression was still not good, she had at least forgave Tony, her enemy.
"What are you planning to do now? Continue searching for Magneto?" After learning about the siblings' experiences, Tony genuinely wanted to offer them some help, so he revealed, "Actually, Michael and I are also searching for traces of mutants, and perhaps we can provide some assistance."
“I don’t need your pretense,” Scarlet Witch immediately refused.
After all, the two sides have not yet reached the point of turning enemies into friends.
Tony's kindness was given at a very inopportune time.
"Can we go now?" After refusing Tony, Scarlet Witch looked at Mike.
The mirror space where everyone was located was completely controlled by Mike, and even the Scarlet Witch's Chaos Power could not break through the barrier to the outside world.
“You can leave whenever you want,” Mike said with a smile. “But before that, I can offer you some practical help regarding your lost memories.”
Mike could vaguely sense that the siblings' minds had been sealed.
Judging from the methods used, the person who placed the seal was quite capable.
“Sister, he doesn’t seem like a bad person. We can let him try. Maybe that memory can help us find clues to our loved ones…” Quicksilver was tempted.
The siblings had already realized that they were different from others, having no childhood memories whatsoever.
Similarly, there is no memory of relatives.
This is why they mistakenly regarded Magneto, who had saved them, as a family member.
"Can you really help us regain our memories?" Scarlet Witch looked at Mike in surprise.
It should be noted that after she awakened the power of chaos, she also tried various methods to restore her memories.
But it hasn't been successful yet.
This feeling of having no past is not good.
“I can only say I’ll do my best; we’ll only know the specific results after the treatment,” Mike said. “Of course, you can also refuse.”
The seal was so strong that it almost completely obscured Mike's senses.
Therefore, before he even started, Mike couldn't guarantee that he could fully restore the siblings' memories.
