Chapter 343 Avengers Assemble!
The whole conference room was filled with a sad atmosphere. Except for Clint who was still in a coma, almost all the people involved in the incident gathered together to mourn for the victims of this incident.
Lainie took out a small stack of exquisite character cards from the warehouse and handed them to Captain America.
"He gave them to me and hoped that I could keep them for him... But I think it might be more appropriate to give them to you..."
Looking at the signature he had written on the card not long ago, Rogers' face was even more sad.
"Is he married?"
Captain America, whose battlefield thinking still carried the style of the last century, subconsciously wanted to know whether Coulson had a family. Although he had not heard it from the other party, he still hoped to hand over the heavy stack of cards in his hand.
"Not yet, but he has a girlfriend who he has been dating for a long time. She is a cellist and just moved to Portland not long ago."
"Does she know that he does such a dangerous job?"
"I don't know. Coulson didn't plan to tell her. Maybe this is why he has never dared to marry her..."
Laini shook her head. The members of the investigation team rarely asked about Coulson's private life. Most of the time, it was only when Coulson took the initiative to mention it that they would talk about the story between him and the cellist.
"SHIELD is his home. Except for vacation, he stays in the bureau almost every day, so he may not have thought about getting married, at least before this."
Captain America sighed silently when he heard this, picked up the stack of cards on the table, and took them in his hands one by one to examine them.
"Although I don't have much contact with him, I can feel from him that he is a very good person..."
"He should wait for us, at least he should wait for Lainie to go over. He can't deal with Loki."
Tony's mood is very complicated, and he blames himself more. If he can repair the turbo engine earlier, maybe he can rush over to support Coulson in time.
"That's his duty. Every soldier who steps on the battlefield should be prepared to sacrifice. I think he is the same."
"But not every soldier should sacrifice!"
Tony stood up from his seat suddenly, staring at Steve sitting opposite him, and then emphasized word by word:
"Today it was Coulson who sacrificed, so who will it be tomorrow? You? Me? Or Rhodey, Lainie? Or these kids?"
Tony became more and more excited, and even unconsciously increased his speed and volume.
"No one is born a warrior, and no one can remain calm when facing sacrifice for the first time. I know the cruelty of war, but what we need now is reasonable tactics rather than meaningless sacrifice!"
After saying so much in a row, Tony panted and looked around at everyone present. After his eyes stayed on Lainie and Nick Fury's faces for a moment, he finally sat back on the chair with a weak butt.
As if he had used up all his strength, Tony stretched out a hand weakly to cover his eyes, trying to block the sight of others and prevent everyone from seeing his expression clearly at this time.
Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, Nick Fury knew that if he didn't say something, then this team that had just been formed and had not had time to gather together would probably fall apart.
So the boiled egg head slowly walked to the conference table and coughed lightly.
"Do you remember why I asked Lainie to gather you? Yes, we originally planned to make weapons through the cosmic cube, but I didn't plan to put all the eggs in one basket..."
Before Nick Fury finished speaking, Lainie, who also realized that the atmosphere was not normal at the moment, immediately took up the topic.
"The Avengers plan, the person who handed this plan to me was Coulson."
Taking out all the information about the Avengers plan that had been kept in Lainie's warehouse from the void, Lainie ignored the boiled egg head with an ugly face across the conference table.
"At this point, I don't think there is any need to hide anything about this information."
Opening the folder, Lainie distributed several copies of the information to everyone present one by one, and the information recorded on it was the detailed information of everyone present.
"This report was completed by Coulson and I, and includes each of you. Except for special people like Dr. Banner, Coulson has contacted and understood almost every one of you, and summarized and evaluated your past to assess whether you are suitable for joining the plan."
Skye looked at the file in his hand that recorded everything that had happened since he joined SHIELD, and his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Especially after seeing the comments and expectations left by Lainie and Coulson at the end of the report, his originally shaken heart finally perked up again.
"Perhaps influenced by the spirit of Captain America, Coulson has attached great importance to this plan from the beginning, and he hopes that this plan can be implemented smoothly. Especially after we completed the trip to the Arctic and brought back Steve, Coulson, in addition to the necessary work every day, almost always pays attention to the progress of the Avengers plan."
Laini crossed her fingers and looked at everyone present seriously.
"Even at the last moment, Coulson still firmly believed that we could defeat Loki and these alien invaders, and that the Avengers plan was necessary! Even if there would inevitably be some sacrifices in the process of this plan, he was willing to be the one who sacrificed for it!"
Steve's right hand holding the card trembled slightly, and the look in his eyes gradually became firm. Then he stood up from his seat and shouted in a deep voice:
"His sacrifice will not be in vain. We will definitely stop Loki's conspiracy!"
This time, Tony did not say anything again, because at this time he had already made up his mind. Just as Captain America said, he would definitely stop Loki.
Lennie was happy to see this. Although the process was a bit bumpy, at least the final goal was achieved.
"In this case, there is nothing to hesitate! At present, we have lost contact with Thor and Dr. Banner, and we have to find a way to get them back as soon as possible. Tony, you and Rhodey repair the armor as soon as possible; Fitz, you take Skye and others to help others repair the communication system of the aerospace aircraft carrier; Natasha, you go and see how Clint is doing. I think he should want to beat Loki up..."
Almost everyone present was arranged, and Lennie finally looked at Captain America.
"Finally...Steve, I suggest you call London first..."
Steve was stunned when he heard this, then he realized what Lainie meant, and finally shook his head after a moment of hesitation.
"No need, I have already missed an appointment once and disappointed her once, I don't want to make the same mistake again."
Laini looked into the other's eyes, sighed and said nothing more.
This is all she, a junior, can do about these two old guys, and the final result will probably depend on them.
...
While everyone was busy, Lainie quietly sneaked into the room where Coulson's body was kept on the aerospace aircraft carrier.
After making sure that no one was following her, Lainie gently lifted the white cloth covering Coulson's body.
"Tsk, I'm sorry for putting you in trouble."
Muttering softly, Lainie reached out and took out a needle from the void, and without much hesitation, she stabbed the liquid inside into Coulson's chest.
Seeing the liquid in the injection completely injected into Coulson's body, Lainie's left hand, which had been attached to Coulson's chest, felt a slight heartbeat.
Plop~
The heartbeat frequency was very low, but at least there was a trend of recovery.
Until this moment, Lainie's heart, which had been hanging for a long time, finally let go a little.
"It's okay, at least it can be saved."
To be honest, Lainie didn't dare to guarantee that this thing would be reliable. After all, the time interval from the injection of [pufferfish toxin B] to the injection of the antidote was really long, and Coulson didn't tell her when the maximum time limit of this thing was.
But fortunately, the effect was satisfactory. As long as Coulson was still alive, Lainie was really not afraid of not being able to save Coulson.
Taking out a piece of alchemical crystal from the void, Lainie pressed it on Coulson's chest without hesitation.
Almost the next moment when the brilliance dissipated, Coulson, who was lying straight on the board, suddenly opened his eyes and coughed abruptly.
"Ahem! Lainie... that's my personal collection, don't... um, where is this?"
Quietly reposting, quietly resurrecting...
Orange has a cold and has a runny nose. Flu is more common since autumn, so everyone must take good care of their health!
