Chapter 639 Never Apart

Stimulated by the pain, her consciousness became even more confined to the surface of the lake, never leaving it for a moment.

Layer upon layer of thick fog completely enveloped the secret chamber, and as the fog swallowed Kara herself, she opened her eyes.

Drawn by her gaze, Kara saw a colossal figure seated on a throne, speaking to her in a deep voice, guided by the shattering green light in her hand, piercing through countless dimensions. "Find the fragment of the Time Stone!"

"Take the power I give you and find it."

Exposed to distorted time nodes and collecting small amounts of 0.5 time fragments.

"Is this only 0.5?"

Xu Fu looked at the 0.5 time segment that popped up on the word and a regretful expression appeared on his face.

Ever since he obtained the Moonstone, he has been trying to extract the Time Fragment from it.

On the contrary, Xu Fu was not particularly attracted to the main characteristic of moonstone, namely, that it endows the holder with extraordinary power.

Finally, the battle with the Moonstone proved this.

The power bestowed upon gemstones cannot compare to this.

In this situation, if the power of the gem has no effect on him anyway, why should Xu Fu accept it?

"Rather."

Thinking of this, Xu Fu turned his gaze to the moon gem in his hand.

As you can see from the time fragments of Kalasopon, acquiring the power of the Moonstone did not come without a price.

The prisoner who first comprehended the power of the gem believed that some will within him was trying to change his mind, thereby causing him to commit some terrible acts.

Only Karasophen didn't care about any of this; driven by his greed for the gem's power, he accepted the power it granted him without complaint.

After recalling the scene of Karatovin obtaining the power of the Moonstone, Xu Fu looked at the alluring, glowing gem in his hand.

At first glance, it is a very unusual and attractive stone.

This is a rare treasure, even if you don't consider its powerful abilities.

Kacha, Kacha.

Unfortunately, Xu Fu's resolve did not waver for a moment because of the appearance of the moonstone.

When he pressed the gemstone with his fingers, a tiny crack began to spread across its surface.

Gemstones are so hard that even if they are subjected to the force of an explosion, it is difficult to cause them any damage.

However, it was clear that Xu Fu was not within the range of damage that the Moonstone could withstand. As the force in his hand increased, the hard stone seemed unable to withstand the enormous force any longer and shattered into pieces in an instant.

At that very moment, as the gem shattered, a voice that had been merely whispering became clearer.

At the same time, in a burst of intense light, the fragments of jewelry and the murmuring voice intertwined, as if drawn by an invisible force, transforming into a figure appearing before Xu Fu on the shore of the gray mud lake.

The figure, composed of moonstone fragments, stood motionless. A red mist rose from its left arm, fixing it in place. It turned its armored body, looking down at Xu Fu, as countless voices came from all directions.

"Found you, fragment of the Time Stone!"

Exposed to distorted points in time, collecting a large number of time fragments (60)

"Dr. Hank Pym's contact information indicates that communication has been lost."

Where does he live?

"Someone was sent there, but nothing changed inside, and Dr. Hank Pym doesn't seem to have returned."

"This appears to be the primary target of the explosion."

"Notify the federal government that a team of Thunder agents has been dispatched to arrest Dr. Hank Pym because he stole important Hydra research."

Inside the Hydra base.

Banner opened his eyes amidst the incessant chatter.

Wearing his uniform, Rick saw Helmut talking to his secretary Pepper. Sensing the arrival of the awakened Banner, Helmut stopped his conversation, nodded to the secretary standing in front of him, and then walked towards Banner.

Banner only noticed his position when Helmut approached: he was squeezed tightly onto the laboratory bed.

With his frail body, he was unable to break free of the restraints.

"You're awake, Dr. Banner."

Looking at Banner lying motionless on the lab bed, Helmut said with obvious regret, "I'm sorry to see you like this again, and I'm very sorry for everything that has happened in the past few days."

""

Taking a deep breath and observing Helmut's reaction, Banner could barely contain his panic and asked, "What are you going to do to me?"

"It's nothing, I just need to distract myself."

His objective and Helmut's certainty remained unchanged: that when Banner regained consciousness, he would not remember the content of their conversation.

"So Dr. Hank Pym is right, Hydra really is a problem."

Helmut was clearly unaware that Banner had been in contact with Hank. Upon hearing this, his expression paused for a moment before he said, "It seems Dr. Banner is also hiding something from me."

"To be honest with me, Mr. Helmut, these human trials in the laboratory, the serum experiments have just been redone, and there is no clear serum data yet, and you are in such a hurry to use it for human trials. This is completely incompetent."

Banner recalled the human experiments he had witnessed in the laboratory where the serum was administered, and his emotions became somewhat agitated.

“This is all for a better future, Dr. Banner,” he said.

"I'm confident you'll understand me."

Helmut silently accepted Banner's answer and said without flinching.

"do you understand?"

"Do you think I would still help you with your research after something like this happened?"

"I believe you will."

Helmut didn't respond; he simply nodded to the Hydra researchers at the base behind him.

Then, people saw a researcher in a white coat put a special metal cap on Banner's head.

"Because you'll soon forget all of this."

As Helmut finished speaking, a blinding white light shot out from Banner's hood, accompanied by excited shouts and screams.

"ah!".

Chapter 640 Refusing a Holiday

A long-awaited downpour arrived, and the entire city of New York was instantly flooded.

The sudden downpour turned the streets into chaos: people pushing apple carts took off their clothes and covered themselves with apples, trying to find shelter from the rain; homeless people huddled in corners, but were still soaked by the downpour.

The continuous rain, like a layer of fog, obscured everything outside.

Xu Fu appeared in front of the newspaper's editorial office, holding an umbrella in his hand.

clanging

"Good morning, Sir."

Pushing open the door, John extended the handkerchief he had prepared beforehand and said...

Good morning, John.

He handed the umbrella to the other person, took off his hat and coat, picked up a handkerchief to wipe the rain off his body, and walked into the newspaper office.

"It hasn't rained this hard in New York in a long time."

John put away his umbrella, leaned it against the door, looked at the rain outside, and sighed.

The torrential rain was so heavy and fast that there was absolutely no time to react.

"It's good that you mentioned an umbrella, sir."

Otherwise, you might get soaked after just a few steps in this heavy rain.

"That's really lucky."

He placed the handkerchief he used to wipe the raindrops by the stove and dried it with the residual heat. Xu Fu smiled at Little John's words.

Of course, the reality was not as fortunate as John had imagined.

In fact, the rain came very suddenly; even Xu Fu only realized it was raining when he was halfway there.

Fortunately, the force of the speed was enough to prevent him from getting drenched in the hard rain before he could grab an umbrella.

Wiping the rain off his face and feeling soaked, Xu Fu sat at the office door, with only one thought in his mind.

It instantly releases super-care power, making wet clothes look brand new.

This ability was originally designed for instant cleaning, but it has proven unexpectedly useful for personal hygiene.

Feeling the moisture draining from his body, Xu Fu's lips twitched slightly, and he turned his gaze to the newspaper on the table.

The difference between the positive and negative worlds created a different behavioral pattern for Xu Fu.

Unlike the readily available information in the other world, during the Great Depression, he had to rely on newspapers to gather the information he needed.
