That afternoon, Merlin took Fury's private jet and traveled thousands of miles from Antarctica back to the North American continent.After an in-flight refueling, they barely changed course, flew all the way over Nevada, and landed deep in the hot desert.The base of Pagassos, a place Merlin is familiar with.They were greeted at the base airfield by the current chief officer of the base, Agent 9 Dam, who was one level higher than Merlin in terms of title.
Agent Dugan."
When I heard that you were coming, I prepared everything in advance."
Agent Dugan still maintained his previous appearance, with a serious face, but on his serious face there were two slightly strange mustaches, which was a beard style that the soldiers of his time were very fond of, and of course, it looks very outdated in modern times.But the old agent in front of him is definitely trustworthy, trustworthy in every way, and after several collaborations with Agent Dugan, Merlin feels this deeply.As long as Agent Dugan is involved, everything will be in order.This guy was a good warrior decades ago, and he is still an equally elite secret agent today, so it's no wonder that Fury trusted him so much that he entrusted Agent Duggan to manage such an important base as the Pagasus base."
Dr.
Foster is now debugging the instrument."
Agent Duggan led Merlin and Fury to the most heavily populated area of Pagasolski, and said to the two men behind him, "Steve has just thawed, his body is not very sensitive to temperature changes, Dr.
Foster is trying the latest treatment to get Steve healed as quickly as possible...
Of course, the Doctor can only solve Steve's external problems, but he can't interfere with Steve's will. ”Agent Duggan said with some concern, "In case he sleeps too long to wake up...
Or, he doesn't want to wake up...""
Don't worry, Dugan."
Merlin comforted softly: "In the realm of occultism, there is a connection between the soul and the body, and the disability of the body will change the soul, which is fatal to ordinary people.But Steve is not an ordinary person, his will and body are stronger than ordinary people, we have enough reason to believe that Steve's soul is still intact, and a complete and resolute soul will not indulge in boring fantasies for a long time. ”"He'll be sober, it's just a matter of time," he said. ”"Yes, he'll be sober."
Standing on the stairs on the second floor, looking at the blonde soldier sleeping in the lab below, Fury said, "Because we need him, a hero who is needed, will not choose to give up." ”"Merlin!"
Just as the three of them walked into the laboratory, a high-pitched, surprised voice sounded in the laboratory, Merlin looked up, and saw the grown Ava rushing quickly, her body becoming illusory as she approached the glass wall, as if she was unhindered, but not rushing headlong into Merlin's arms as before.After all, she has grown up, she is 16 years old this year, and she is a reserved child.For the past few years, the child has been living with Dr.
Bill, often visiting Merlin's house, and she has a good relationship with Raven and Lorna, is good friends with Daisy, and enjoys playing with Matt.This child's personality is also very good, but her physical condition...
It's really not optimistic.When Ava was rescued by Merlin and Hill from the wreckage of a lab explosion in 1998, when she was 11 years old, Dr.
Bill used the drawings of the quantum stabilizer sent by Dr.
Hank, who had never seen the dragon, to create a quantum stabilizer for Ava, which would allow her to temporarily escape the pain of being torn apart from the moment and being in a quantum state.But Dr.
Hank also said that as Ava gets older, the child's connection to the quantum sea will become stronger and stronger, and the quantum stabilizer that allows her to maintain her entity is predicted to completely fail when Ava's connection to the quantum sea peaks.Five years have passed since the 10-year deadline predicted by Dr.
Hank, and Ava now seems to have forgotten the pain she was carrying, but neither Merlin nor Dr.
Bill have forgotten, Dr.
Bill has been working day and night on quantum theory in the hope of finding a way to deal with Ava, but in this regard, Merlin is completely unable to help.He could only do his best to make Ava happy every time she came to the house.Raven also heard about Ava's experience from Merlin, the girl who had always been indifferent, and unexpectedly very kind to Ava, even a sisterly emotion, but unfortunately, Raven, who is proficient in almost all types of magic, can't help Ava either.Aezarth is a magical civilization with no knowledge of quantum mechanics and the quantum sea in their large libraries.Merlin reached out and stroked Ava's head and the beautiful black hair, a look of worry in his eyes.If the child is unlucky, after 5 years, she may disappear completely, like a beautiful soap bubble dissipating in the sun.Not death...
But it is more terrible than death, and it disappears more unpredictably."
Our Ava is pretty again."
Merlin looked at the slender girl next to him, and he quipped, "Did you receive a love letter from your classmates at school?"
”"I'm not going to school, Merlin."
Ava shrugged her shoulders, and the quirky girl nodded to Merlin's side with Agents Fury and Dugan, who both knew about Ava and were extremely tolerant of Dr.
Bill's adopted daughter.People are sympathetic, even a guy like Fury who is full of intrigue will have a heartfelt pity for an ill-fated child like Ava.Of course, this is also because Ava's abilities can be of great help in the Pagasus base."
Uncle Bill asked me to help out in the lab, and my father taught me the things that were taught in school when I was a kid."
Ava didn't shy away from talking about her past, and with a sunny smile on her slightly pale face, she said to Merlin, "I'm studying quantum mechanics with Uncle Bill now, and I'm his assistant now.What do you think?
I'm amazing, right?
”"Well, that's amazing."
Merlin replied with two remarks, and he said to Ava, "I have time to see Matt, he asked me last week where you went...
You too, moved to Nevada with Dr.
Bill, and it wasn't until you wrote a letter to Matt, you know him, he's actually a very sensitive person, and he thought he you off. ”"Not really."
Ava became a little silent at this moment, and after a few seconds, she said to Merlin, "I just...
I just want him to get used to the feeling of me disappearing for a while, so that when I actually leave in the future, he won't feel pain.He's my best friend and I don't want to hurt him. ”"If you don't tell him before you leave, you're hurting him."
Merlin sighed and said to Ava, who had her head down, "There are still 5 years...
You can go through 5 years together, and if it doesn't go well, Matt should be just an adult by then...
He should be able to deal with his pain and loss, I mean, Ava, don't be so yourself, and if you end up leaving, I hope you leave with joy rather than pain. ”Merlin's words hurt a bit.Even Fury couldn't help but glare at him, but Merlin knew that if he didn't say these words, he might really have no chance.Ava blinked, she looked up at Merlin, and she said, "Can't you comfort me?"
Merlin, can't you just tell me everything is going to be okay?
”"Haha."
Merlin looked at Ava with a look of disgust, and he patted the big girl on the shoulder, and said, "It's really easier to pat someone on the shoulder and tell them that everything will be okay than to persuade them to face reality." ”"But Ava, I grew up watching you, and I know how strong a child you are, and I know that even if you go to that damn quantum sea, you have the ability to protect yourself and live according to your own will.""
No matter how difficult the road ahead is, grit your teeth and go on, trying to find direction and hope."
Merlin whispered, "Just for Matt, for us, for Dr.

Bill, who treats you as his daughter, okay?"
”"Okay."
Ava turned her head to look at Fury, and she said to Fury with a smile on her face, "Lord Director, I want to take 2 days off to see my good friend, is that okay?"
”"Go, go, I'll give you a week's off, have fun, and come back to work when you've had enough."
Merlin talked about it, and if Fury didn't give Ava a leave of absence, he himself would probably feel that he was too cold-blooded.With a wave of his hand, Ava was given a long 7-day vacation, and the lab research assistant let out a cheer, put his credentials on the table, and disappeared from everyone's eyes.Fury looked at Merlin with an unhappy look on his face, and he said, "Look, Merlin, I helped you."
Now it's your turn to help me. ”"Alright, Director."
Merlin answered Ava's tone, and then, with Agent Dugan's smiling expression, he turned into smoke and quickly disappeared down the stairs on the second floor, and when he reappeared, he was already standing on Steve.
Rogers was lying next to the bed.Merlin nodded to Dr.
Bill, who was busy on the other side, who gestured to him OK.He lowered his head and looked at Steve, who was sleeping but breathing very slowly.
Rogers, this young version of Captain America doesn't seem to have been left a mark on his body by time at all.But the more Merlin looked at that handsome and resolute face, the more intense the open-minded face of old Steve came to mind.The two Steves' appearances slowly merged in front of Merlin's eyes, and finally solidified into the sleeping young man in front of him."
Alas, although I know that you have slept for 67 years, this year you are in your 90s."
Merlin reached out to brush Steve's closed eyelids, and he whispered, "But no matter how you look at it, Steve, you're going to be much younger than me..."
The moment Rogers' blue eyes met, a spiritual vortex appeared in Merlin's eyes, accompanied by a low syllable sound, and the wills of the two collided together in a "gentle" posture at this moment.Merlin thought it was going to be difficult.After all, the principle of the Soul Charm is the suppression of the soul, using a strong way to check other people's memories, but when the two wills came into contact, Merlin found that Steve's resistance at the level of the will was not as fierce as he thought.He got into Steve very easily.
Rogers' Will World.Then, he heard a melodious song.Merlin looked around a little dazedly, in this world of consciousness, the place where he was was like an empty ball scene, the unmanned gramophone was turning with the record, emitting a soothing melody, and in the center of the stage in front of Merlin's eyes, a spotlight was shining there, and in the gentle light, a handsome man in a green military uniform was dancing with a lady in a long black dress.They looked at each other tenderly, and their eyes were full of love that didn't need to be explained.It's a beautiful scene.Merlin looked at the dancing figure, and after a moment, he turned back to a dark corner outside the spotlight, and in a dark corner of the spotlight, a man in a blue uniform with the Star-Spangled Banner was sitting alone at the wine table, looking at the dancing figure in a daze.The two people who danced were Steve and Peggy when they were young.
Ms.
Carter, and the one sitting in the corner is also Steve.
Rogers, it seems that he has just stepped off the battlefield.
Rogers.Merlin walked over, he pulled out a chair and sat down next to Steve, and he said, "My name is Merlin, Merlin.
Riley, I'm an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and you can understand that I'm Peggy.
Ms.
Carter's subordinates, I have been ordered to wake you up, Steve...
The outside world needs you. ”"Shhhhhhhh ”"Going to an appointment?"
Merlin asked, "Whose date?"
”"Saturday, Stork Club, eight o'clock in the evening, can't be late."
Steve looked at the two people in front of him who were dancing to the sound of singing, and he whispered, "I'm here...""
I'm right here, I'm not leaving."
Merlin didn't answer, he didn't ask any more, but sat quietly next to Steve, and after a few minutes, the singing died down and the spotlight faded.In that last light, in front of the two of them, Steve and Peggy's apparitions held hands, laughing and leaving the stage, walking towards the exit of the stage.Then, everything went bleak.It's like a dream is coming to an end."
Is that the thing you regret the most?"
Merlin held out his hand, and a glass of wine with ice cubes appeared strangely in his hand.This is Steve's spirit world, where everything is based on imagination, and for a skilled wizard, such a world can be changed at will.Merlin put the glass to his lips and said to the silent Steve, "I can't turn back time, Steve." ”"But I can tell you, you didn't miss that dance...
I've met Ms.
Peggy several times, and I'll tell you that you never left her. ”Merlin said, "Steve.
Rogers stayed with her until they mysteriously disappeared in 1998, you know what I mean?
Steve...
Although I can't explain this phenomenon, I can use my personality to assure that Ms.
Carter has always had a Steve by her side.
Rogers, I suspect, is you from the future, or you from another parallel world. ”"You didn't miss that dance, Steve.""
You just don't know
