âAunt Peggy, this is the report about the captain during this timeâ
In the room, Sharon Carter, the niece who is also an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., handed the information in her hand to the gray-haired woman in front of her.
âThank you, Sharon.â
On the bed, Agent Carter, who used to be agile, but is now sluggish, stretched out his wrinkled palms to take the documents that Sharon handed over. A tender look. Tremblingly flipping through the information in his hand, looking at the contents, there was a faint smile on Agent Carterâs face, and his expression was like nostalgia and reminiscence.
She did not expect that today, 70 years later, she would still be able to wait for the news of Steveâs resurrection.
Although, the news came too late and a little too long.
Looking at her aunt who was caught in her memories, Sharon Carter hesitated for a while before she couldnât help but say, âAunt Peggy, why donât you want to see the captain? You should know that the captain is actually looking for you all the time.â
Sharon Carter is no stranger to the relationship between her aunt and Captain America.
In fact, it was precisely because she was influenced by Peggy Carter and Captain Americaâs deeds in World War II that she chose to live the same life as her aunt when she grew up and became an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
âSometimes, maybe not meeting is the right decision.â
Faced with his nieceâs question, Agent Carter took off the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose and shook his head in a refusal.
The long years have worn away the once daring Agent Carter who dared to love and hate, and now she is just an old woman who has no courage to meet Steve again. Because she was worried that if she met Steve, the young and beautiful Peggy Carter in his heart would no longer exist, and instead would be the old woman with gray hair and wrinkled face today.
She didnât dare and didnât want to do it.
If so, she would rather Steveâs impression of herself always stay in the era of 70 years ago, in that era of war but unforgettable.
âcough coughâ
Saying that, Agent Carter on the bed suddenly began to cough, and Sharon Carter hurriedly stepped forward and started to pat her back. On the bedside table, there were piles of black and white photos of Agent Carterâs youthful appearance. Medicines in various bottles and jars.
Seventy years have taken away her youth, leaving only her old and fragile body.
âThen, Aunt Peggy, take good care of yourself.â
As an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., Sharon Carter does not have enough time, especially since the Avengers just ended a battle not long ago, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is needed for the follow-up finishing work.
âUm.â
Lying on the bed, perhaps because of the medicine he had just taken, Agent Carter was obviously sleepy.
Looking at her aunt with her eyes closed on the bed, Sharon Carter gently closed the door.
With Sharon Carter leaving, Agent Carter slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the closed door and turned to look at the information about Steve on the bedside.
âI didnât expect that the once heroic Agent Carter has become such a look now.â
At this moment, a strange and magnetic voice suddenly sounded in the room.
âI just donât know how Steve would feel if he saw this scene?â
Legend from Peggy Carter
The sudden voice in the room and the contents of the other partyâs words made Agent Carterâs face show a look of astonishment. She struggled to prop up her body from the bed, looked in the direction from which the voice came, and asked sharply: âWho are you?!â
âAn old friend I havenât seen in a long time.â
Following this answer, a blond-haired, white-skinned, bewitchingly handsome, unhuman-like man walked out from the corner of the room.
Diorâs eyes swept across Agent Carter on the bed, and a faint smile appeared on his bewitching face: âI just donât know if you are surprised by my appearance, or whetherâ
Legend from Peggy Carter
âYou are?â
Looking at the man who appeared in front of him, Agent Carterâs memory seemed to be pulled back to the past in an instant. The scene where he and Steve met for the first time included the other personâs figure.
âDior!â
The long memory awakened, and Agent Carter couldnât help but blurt out the other partyâs name.
âYou are not dead!â
In Steveâs report, Dio finally died in the flames of the explosion that fought with him. However, Dio who appeared in front of him clearly told Agent Carter that Dio was not dead.
âYeah, Iâm not dead.â Hearing Agent Carterâs words, Dio couldnât help raising his eyebrows, sat down on the chair in front of her, propped up his chin and showed a strange smile on his face, revealing his sharp teeth: â Are you disappointed by this, Carter?â As he spoke, Dior changed his sitting position, leaning forward slightly to reveal his still-young handsome face: âIn fact, not only did I not die , Even the appearance has never changed or aged, the long years canât take away a shred of my life, but you, Peggy Carter has aged into such a rotten appearance in the years.â
As he said that, Dioâs eyes swept across Peggy Carterâs face, with undisguised pity flashing in his eyes.
âAt least, I didnât become a monster like you.â
Obviously, even after seventy years, Agent Carter still hasnât forgotten what Dior did.
âvampire.â
âWhat is a monster, it seems that even after all this time, your thoughts are still as rotten as they used to be, Carter. For me, everything in this world has its meaning, if there is a **** in this world If so, then he has only one purpose in creating human beings, that is, to exist as food for vampires, pigs eat grass, people eat pigs, and I eat people, and people who eat are the real masters of all things.â
âWhat a twisted mind, Dio.â
In the face of Diorâs shocking remarks, Agent Carter obviously could not agree.
âIs it twisted? Maybe what I said is the truth.â
In this regard, Dior did not care at all.
He slowly got up from the chair and looked at Peggy Carter, who was lying on the bed and was dying.
âItâs so ugly, Carter, your current appearance is the best proof that human beings are too fragile, even if there is no pain, time will easily take away your strength, now you are trapped here. In the ugly body, the pain will easily take you away without even needing my hands.â
âAre you willing to die so ugly?â
Strolling to the bedside, Dio looked directly at Agent Carter, his words full of bewitchment.
âIf you wish, I will give you eternal life and restore your youthful appearance.â
As he spoke, Dio took out a pale and eerie mask from behind him.
âGhost face.â
Looking at the mask in Diorâs hand, Agent Carter couldnât help but murmured.
Agent Carter is no stranger to this mask, and it can even be said that this mask is the beginning of everything, which led to Diorâs final choice to become a vampire.
Her eyes stayed on the stone ghost face in Dioâs hands for a long time before Agent Carter retracted her gaze, she closed her eyes gently, and replied weakly but firmly: âI would rather die in such an ugly way than die. Become a monster like you and live.â
clap clap
In the face of Agent Carterâs categorical refusal to answer, Dioâs face did not appear to be angry, but raised his hand to gently encourage and applaud him.
âItâs really touching, I admit, Carter, I want to see you. Even if you look and become ugly, you are still the same you, I have to admit it.â
In front of him, he said a few words to Carter with a smile.
However, in the next moment, the expression on Diorâs face suddenly changed, and the smile on his face became worse: âBut, why should I listen to you.â
Saying that, without waiting for Carter to react, Dio grabbed the stone ghost face in his hand and slammed it over the opponentâs face.
âIâm looking forward to what Steve will look like when he learns that youâve become a vampire, hahahahaâ
Legend from Peggy Carter
âYou mean, Peggy Carter is missing?â
S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, Tri-Wing Building.
Nick Fury listened to the news from Agent Hill, and a look of astonishment flashed in his only intact eye.
âAgent, are you sure this message is correct.â
âYes, sir.â Faced with the doubts expressed by Nick Fury, Agent Hill assured him without hesitation: âI have verified with Agent Sharon Carter that she had met Peggy Carter during the day. , but at night, if you look at the room again, there is no trace of the other party.â
Hearing the series of assurances from Agent Hill, Nick Fury also believed the information given by the other party.
However, after confirming the authenticity of the news, the expression on Nick Furyâs face did not relax in the slightest, but instead became a bit more dignified.
âCan you tell me how a woman in her nineties disappeared from her room?â
Peggy Carter is not only the former lover of Captain America, but also one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D. Therefore, both Nick Fury and Agent Hill attach great importance to this senior who has a profound influence on S.H.I.E.L.D. .
âI donât know, sir.â
In fact, Nick Furyâs question was also the question that flashed in Agent Hillâs heart when he knew this information.
âIn fact, I have arranged for agents to investigate everything around Peggy Carterâs residence, but none of them have seen Peggy Carter come out of his room.â As a gray-haired old woman, Peggy Carter Gikat is also a very conspicuous target in a sense, but strangely, everyone who lives nearby has not found any trace of each other.
Even in the cameras on the side of the road, there was no picture of Peggy Carter walking.
âI suspect thereâs something eccentric in this that doesnât even rule out the possibility of containment.â
In doubt, Agent Hill put forward his own guess.
The containment has been one of the most concerned targets within S.H.I.E.L.D. in recent times. With the emergence of the SP Foundation, and the containment effect of the containment expert Long Frequency, especially the Avengers have personally fought before. The existence of two shelters, the dog charm and the dragon charm, made Nick Fury pay more attention to the shelter.
Even the firm-willed Nick Fury was a little shaken at this moment when he learned that the containment effect of the dog spell that appeared in the previous Avengers battle was actually able to generate undead magic. After all, this is an immortal body. Even if Natasha knew the side effects of the containment from Natashaâs mouth, it still couldnât erase Nick Furyâs desire for this spell.
If you can get this dog spell, for S.H.I.E.L.D., it will undoubtedly be a powerful weapon that is not weaker than Lokiâs scepter. With the end of the New York War, Sol took the Cosmic Rubikâs Cube, and now S.H.I.E.L.D. Among them, only the magic scepter used by Loki was left.
Itâs a pity that Nick Furyâs idea is good, but itâs a pity that the spell was contained by Long, a containment expert from the Foundation, early, so Nick Fury shouldnât have the chance to contact him at all.
âThis possibility cannot be ruled out.â
Turning his thoughts back and forth, Nick Fury nodded lightly in the face of Agent Hillâs inference.
Indeed, if it is the power of the containment, it can indeed make Peggy Carter disappear in his room without knowing it.
During this period of time, S.H.I.E.L.D. has also collected some items with special abilities at the request of Nick Fury.
Most of these are the products of experimental accidents or mutations. If in the past, Nick Fury might only use them as products of experimental science. However, since he learned about the concept of containment, Nick Fury looked at these objects again and always thought that these were also a kind of containment, a containment made by humans~www.mtlnovel.com~ Regardless of the effect of the containment , or for some other reason, we all have to get Peggy Carter back. â
After thinking for a while, Nick Fury gave the order to Agent Hill again.
In terms of reason and reason, they must all make moves towards the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Even if, in Nick Furyâs heart, it is very clear that the possibility of being able to find each other is almost slim.
âAs ordered, sir.â
He nodded and agreed without hesitation. Then, Agent Hillâs face showed a hint of hesitation, and his stomach and the director of SHIELD in front of him asked: âThat, sir, regarding the news of Peggy Carterâs disappearance, we Do you need to tell the captain about it?â
ââ
In the face of Agent Hillâs inquiry, Nick Fury was silent for a while before replying in a deep voice.
