CHAPTER 651 PLAYING THE FOOL
As Dr. Banner turned around, he heard an unfamiliar greeting in his ear. Still, Dr. Banner could guess who said it.
So, after turning around and seeing the figure, Dr. Banner also spoke lightly, “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Rogers.”
Huhu~
Looking at Bruce Banner standing on the ruins in front of him wearing big pants, covered in dust but in the hollow shape, Captain Rogers who came over pressed down the feeling of wanting to laugh out loud and looked at Dr. Banner with a gentle smile on his face.
“Dr. Bruce Banner, we finally met.” Captain Rogers continued after breaking his expression.
Since taking over SHIELD, Rogers has been thinking about how to enhance the strength within SHIELD. This kind of strength does not mean the amount of personals SHIELD has, but a personal strength like that of the Avengers that can stand alone in front of powerful threats.
Although individual heroism has been weakened by the development of science and technology in the world, the existence of various superpowers still makes individual strength more important than science and technology in many cases.
What’s more, Marvel’s civilization and technology didn’t evolve in a very gradual way, but in a very weird way. As Lin Rui knew a long time ago, Marvel World’s cutting-edge technology was hundreds of years ahead of ordinary technology, which should not have existed in early civilization.
Moreover, the Marvel World has many protagonist-level characters with superpowers. As a result, the technology, while impressive, seems to have been weakened.
So if Shield wants to stand firm on the earth and truly exercise its responsibility to encircle the globe then they need strong members. And Dr. Bruce Banner is known to stand at the top of the world in terms of science and technology and in personal strength. That’s why he sent Natasha to invite him back.
“Yeah.” Looking closely at Steve Rogers in front of him, Dr. Banner said with slight emotion.
Huhu~
Then, another breeze blew and Dr. Banner felt a cool sensation in his lower body. Then a bright light flashed in his mind and he looked as if he had forgotten something. Looking down at his big pants, Dr. Banner’s eyes blinked a few times and he suddenly became very surprised.
“Ah! Just now…did Hulk came out!?” Looking at his own big pants, Dr. Banner began to play dumb and shouted.
“……” Seeing Dr. Banner’s change of face as well as his words, Rogers heart was filled with helplessness.
Had it not been for Natasha who had already informed him that Dr. Banner was about to transform into Hulk then he might really have believed Banner’s words.
But now, Rogers can only let Banner off and pretend that he had unintentionally transformed into Hulk.
Rogers had already inquired about the situation on Mirage Knight. Mirage Knight’s situation didn’t seem to be very good. So, if Tony comes here for Dr. Banner then Rogers would have to play the peacemaker.
“Well, Hulk did show up just now. Moreover, he has caused us a lot of losses. The most important thing is that he injured one of our allies: Mirage Knight.” Looking at Dr. Banner pretending to be stupid, Rogers replied after thinking about it.
“This… an ally!” Hearing Rogers’ answer, Dr. Banner, who was playing dumb was even more embarra.s.sed. However, he continued to show shocked expressions on his face.
“Really?! I’m sorry! I really can’t control Hulk! I don’t know what he did. However, I am willing to apologize for what he did.” Dr. Banner said sincerely while pushing everything on Hulk.
At this time, Hulk would have resisted Banner for throwing him under the bus if he had not just vented his anger for a while and fell into a deep sleep. Although Hulk is another personality of Dr. Banner, he wouldn’t really take the blame for something that he didn’t do.
“I’m sure that’s not what you would have liked, and I think we all understand that.” Now that Dr. Banner was talking about it, Rogers took the opportunity to make a way for Banner to step out of this situation.
Moreover, Mirage Knight is now injured because he took the initiative to fight with Hulk. According to the situation at the time, while Hulk was venting his anger on the Iron Man Army, other people shouldn’t have intervened anymore and they just needed to avoid him, no matter how good he is, what can he do? Although Tony would have lost a lot of Iron Man Armors, it was better than casualties.
“I’m sorry! I will try my best to keep Hulk from coming out!” Hearing Rogers’ words, Dr. Banner said seriously.
“Well, that would be for the best.” Although Rogers will definitely need Hulk’s power in the future, he won’t say so directly now.
…
After Rogers and Dr. Banner got to know each other and talked for a few minutes, Lin Rui, who was several hundred meters away from them, landed on the ground. Lin Rui was still lying unconscious.
Tony and Peter, who had rushed toward this side, and Jack, who had saved him from falling in time, surrounded his lying from on the ground and all three had worried expressions on their faces.
“JARVIS, have the scan results come out yet, is Mirage Knight seriously injured?” Staring at the half of Lin Rui’s face that was not blocked by the mask, Tony asked in a worried tone towards JARVIS.
After Tony and Peter rushed over, he had already asked JARVIS to scan Lin Rui. Fortunately, Lin Rui unblocked himself from Phantom Suit in order to rea.s.sure Tony so that JARVIS could detect him in the beginning of the fight, otherwise, JARVIS would not have been able to scan Lin Rui’s physical condition.
“Sir, Mr. Mirage Knight has multiple fractures throughout his body, with comminuted fractures in both arms and his chest, though his internal organs are unharmed. In addition to that, there are multiple soft tissue injuries and there should be a moderate concussion.” After Tony asked the question, JARVIS answered after waiting for two seconds.
From JARVIS’s report, Lin Rui’s injuries still sounded pretty serious. A mere comminuted fracture can be very worrying, after all, this kind of fracture is very difficult to fully recover from.
And there’s also a concussion, which can cause other problems in the head, especially since Lin Rui is still unconscious. It seems that Hulk’s last hit was also completely unexpected for Lin Rui. Or, he did it on purpose. However, if Lin Rui really did do it on purpose, then the price was a bit too high.
So, after hearing the JARVIS report, Tony, who had already dropped his helmet, instantly became extremely angry. He stared at Lin Rui’s figure on the ground, and Tony then turned his head and looked in the other direction. Over there, Bruce Banner, who has returned to normal, is chatting with Captain Rogers.
Call!
The next moment, a fierce flame spurted from Tony’s feet as he rushed over there.
