I'm a hero in Marvel
Chapter 71 James Howlett
Logan woke up from his dream and collapsed on the floor exhausted. Everything seemed to be a mixture of reality and illusion. He fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up again, he had changed, bringing a brand new aura.
Maybe others haven't noticed it yet, but Wolverine is no longer the same person he used to be. At least he remembers his original name - James Howlett!
It has been a long time since Logan and his son recovered from their trance, and no one knows what they experienced in the illusion.
They didn't intend to reveal a word. Today, the Logans seemed even more taciturn than before.
Especially the first few days after waking up, it was a torment for Logan. The illusion of the thousand-year-old building blocks and Buddha statues constructed by Li Jie was so realistic that it was heartbreaking. He seemed to be able to feel the temperature of the blood on his hands.
Zhuangzi dreamed of a butterfly. Was it me who dreamed of the butterfly, or was it the butterfly that dreamed of me? Logan spent his days in a state of confusion, where it was hard to tell the truth from the false. Days passed like a dream.
Charles even talked to Li Jie specifically: "What's wrong with Logan? He has been behaving strangely lately."
Li Jie himself had never used the Ksitigarbha statue or similar magic weapons, so this was his first attempt. All the methods he adopted were learned from the notes of other Buddhist practitioners. As for the specific situation, Li Jie could only be vague: "Well, it's just a transitional stage. These are normal sequelae. They will be fine after a while."
It will be fine after a while. Well, probably. Professor Charles looked at Li Jie doubtfully. He began to wonder if it was a mistake to let Logan ask Li Jie for help?
According to Li Jie, after a while, Logan's condition seemed to have improved and he was no longer as restless as he was in the previous few days.
A few days ago, he didn't say a word, just watched everyone vigilantly. He didn't even eat with everyone, but ran to the lake under the Rocky Mountains to fish and barbecue.
Today, Logan was finally willing to have breakfast with everyone, which made everyone feel a little relieved.
Storm, who was in charge of breakfast, was obviously surprised when she saw Logan walk into the restaurant, but she soon smiled and said, "Logan! Aren't you going fishing today? What would you like for breakfast?"
Storm asked kindly, holding a spatula. The other X-Men in the restaurant also turned their eyes to Logan.
Logan ignored everyone's gazes and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I want to eat scrambled eggs."
"Okay! Logan, wait a moment, it will be ready soon!" Storm immediately started preparing scrambled eggs for Logan.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was eerily quiet, everyone stopped breakfast and stared at Logan. The only sound was the sound of Storm cooking scrambled eggs for Logan.
Fortunately, this strange silence did not last long, and Storm quickly brought the scrambled eggs that Logan had ordered to him.
"Logan, your scrambled eggs." She also placed a spoon in front of Logan.
Logan picked up the spoon and tasted the scrambled eggs one bite after another. The warm and soft egg liquid had just the right saltiness and exuded the unique aroma of eggs.
Logan chewed the scrambled eggs with great relish. Everyone stared at Logan as he ate.
Logan lowered his head and ate the eggs in big bites, but his body suddenly began to tremble, like an uncontrollable muscle spasm.
"Logan, what's wrong with you!" Storm noticed Logan's abnormality and couldn't help but pat him on the back.
She was the person closest to Logan and the first to notice that something was wrong. Logan wasn't having a convulsion, was he crying?!
Oh my God! Storm swore that she had known Logan for so long and had never seen him cry or even show a weak expression!
Logan lowered his voice and said, "I'm fine, it's just that these scrambled eggs are so delicious. I haven't eaten such delicious scrambled eggs for a long time!"
"Logan, it's not that long. It's just that you haven't had dinner with us in the past few days!" Qin immediately corrected Logan.
Because Li Jie once said that Logan's recent abnormality was mostly because he had not yet completely distinguished between illusion and reality. They needed to help him understand that he was now in the real world!
Logan looked up when he heard what Qin said. Everyone saw that his eyes were slightly red, but there were no tears. It was unknown whether he didn't cry or he was holding back.
Logan scooped up a big spoonful of scrambled eggs and said to Storm, "This is the best scrambled eggs I've ever had. It seems like I haven't tasted anything like this in decades."
"It's okay, it's okay, Logan. If you like, I can do it for you every day." Storm patted Logan's back to comfort him.
Logan did something that no one expected and that he had never done before.
He stood up and gave Storm a hug, holding her tightly, feeling her body temperature, and confirming that she was not an illusion: "I'm so glad you're alive!"
Not just Storm, he embraced every member of the X-Men, including Scott, whom he once hated the most.
"Dude! Dude! Don't be so strong. You're almost breaking my waist!" Wolverine's strong hug made Scott feel a little uncomfortable...
"Scott, it's great that you're alive! You are all alive. I can stand here, hear your voices, see your appearance, and smell your breath! There is no better thing than this!" Logan said sincerely.
"I apologize to you for my previous asshole behavior. As long as you are still alive and real, that's enough."
At first, Scott was upset about Logan hugging their mutual girlfriend Jean tightly, but after hearing what Logan said, he took the initiative to pat Logan on the shoulder and said, "Logan, no need to say more, always remember that you are a part of us, and everyone in our big family is important!"
......
Considering that the emotions of Logan and his son have not yet completely stabilized, the follow-up training plan arranged by Li Jie for them has not yet started.
However, Logan and the other person's experience in the illusion had obviously had a great impact on them. Their impulsiveness, anger and bloodlust were significantly reduced. Especially Logan, he seemed more thoughtful and wise. This is a good thing for all parties. The professor also agreed with Li Jie's opinion and let Logan and the others return to their daily lives first and then conduct follow-up training later.
While Logan was recovering, Tony brought news: "Everyone, prepare your travel stuff. We are going to have a picnic on Venus this time!"
Ever since Li Jie brought back the space ring made by Master Gu Yi from Kamartai, Tony has been testing its stability. After several tests, he has determined that this device is practical and feasible.
Now, he has built a portal inside the Eternal City, the remains of the Holy Shield Brotherhood in Rome, which can teleport directly from Earth to Venus. Each teleportation relies on the energy provided by the Ark Reactor.
It must be said that this method of transmission is very convenient, and there is no need to use solid fuel rockets or Tony's Ark spacecraft. Because using any aircraft through the atmosphere, according to the current level of technology, it is easy to be detected by other countries, which is contrary to the Illuminati's principle of keeping a low profile.
The use of space portals can cleverly avoid these problems. As long as a space portal is opened in the Eternal City of Rome, the Earth and Venus will be just a stone's throw away. Its efficiency and speed far exceed any existing flight equipment. But the only drawback of the space portal is its extremely high energy consumption. Every time a portal from Earth to Venus is opened, it consumes the energy of several large Ark reactors.
An Ark Reactor is very expensive. Fortunately, Tony is the inventor of this technology and has the ability to improve this energy source, which makes it possible to build a portal between the Earth and Venus. If it were someone else, the cost of opening the portal each time would be prohibitive.
Even so, Tony's private property is still shrinking rapidly. At present, the Venus base has just started, and he has already lost $1.5 billion. To achieve self-sufficiency in the Venus base, at least an additional investment of tens of billions of dollars is needed.
If the Venus base is to reach a certain scale and meet Li Jie's expectations, more investment is needed. This will be a huge expense and may even drain all of Tony's private property, even though he is the world's richest man.
It can be said that interstellar navigation projects are not something that can be borne by private financial resources, not to mention that this is so costly only with the help of the Kamar-Taki wizard. If Li Jie had not proposed to produce a series of cosmetics such as hair growth water and scar repair fluid, and put these high-efficiency products on the market to make money, Tony Stark's desire to play with the Venus project might really go bankrupt.
Now in the Eternal City of Rome, Tony radiantly announced to the other members of the Illuminati: "Everyone, put on your equipment! The first phase of the Venus base project has been completed! Now, we will set foot on a planet that has never been explored by anyone - Venus!"
After confirming that the space ring was correct, Tony began to build the Venus base with all his strength, continuously transporting construction materials to Venus through the portal of the Eternal City.
The Iron Legion, a construction engineering unit specially designed by Tony, was responsible for the construction of the Venus base. Since they did not need to participate in combat, Tony could remove the most expensive fire control system and combat components of the Iron Legion. There was no need to use expensive combat armor such as gold-titanium alloy or adamantium alloy.
The most expensive material used in this batch of steel construction corps is titanium alloy. Many non-critical components use ordinary corrosion-resistant and heat-resistant materials, and then a layer of titanium alloy coating is applied on the outside to reduce costs.
This greatly reduced the cost of the Iron Legion. Despite this, the total price of this Iron Legion of more than 50 units still exceeded 500 million US dollars. It was this investment in the construction of the legion that enabled Tony Stark to remotely control the Iron Legion on Venus through Jarvis on Earth...
