Marvel: Unlimited Possession Chapter 287: Missing
"Aunt Peggy, this is a report about the captain during this time..."
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.
"Thank you, Sharon."
On the bed, Agent Carter, who was once agile but now sluggishly old, stretched out his wrinkled palms to take the documents handed by Sharon, her eyes swept over the familiar face on the documents There was a hint of tenderness. Tremblingly flipping through the information in his hand, looking at the contents, there was a faint smile on Agent Carter's face, and his expression was like nostalgia and reminiscence.
She did not expect that today, seventy years later, she would still be able to wait for the news of Steve's resurrection.
Although, this 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 couldn't help but say, "Aunt Peggy, why don't you want to see the captain, you should know that the captain is actually looking for you... "
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 America's deeds in World War II that she chose to live the same life as her aunt when she grew up and became a SHIELD agent.
"Sometimes it may be the right decision not to meet."
Faced with his niece's question, Agent Carter removed the reading glasses from the bridge of his nose and shook his head in a refusal.
Long years have worn away the once daring Agent Carter, and now she's just an aging old woman who doesn't have the 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 white hair and wrinkled face.
She did not dare and would not do so.
If so, she would rather Steve's impression of herself always stay in the era of 70 years ago, in that era of war but unforgettable.
“Cough cough~”
Speaking, Agent Carter on the bed suddenly began to cough, and Sharon Carter hurriedly stepped forward and began to pat her back. On the bedside table, next to the black and white photos of Agent Carter's youthful appearance. The piles are filled with various bottles and jars of medicines.
Seventy years have taken away her youth, leaving only an old and fragile body.
……
"Then, Aunt Peggy, take good care of yourself."
As an agent of SHIELD, Sharon Carter does not have enough time, especially since the Avengers just ended a battle not long ago, and needs SHIELD to carry out the follow-up finishing work.
"Hmm."
Agent Carter was visibly sleepy lying on the bed, perhaps because he had just taken his medicine.
Looking at her aunt with her eyes closed on the bed, Sharon Carter gently closed the door.
As Sharon Carter left, Agent Carter slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the closed door and turned to look at the information about Steve on the bedside.
"I didn't expect that the once heroic Agent Carter has become such a look now."
At this moment, a strange and magnetic voice suddenly sounded in the room.
"I just don't know, how would Steve feel if he saw this?"
[From Peggy Carter's legend...]
The sudden voice in the room and the content of the other party's words caused Agent Carter's face to show a stunned expression. She struggled to prop up her body from the bed and looked in the direction of the voice. He asked sharply, "Who are you?!"
"An old friend I haven't seen in a long time."
With this answer, from the corner of the room came a blond, white-skinned, bewitchingly handsome, unhuman-like man.
Dior's gaze swept across Agent Carter on the bed, and a faint smile appeared on his bewitching face: "I just don't know if you are surprised by my appearance, or..."
[From Peggy Carter's legend...]
"Who are you?"
Looking at the man who appeared in front of him, Agent Carter's 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 person's figure.
"Dior!"
A long memory awakened, and Agent Carter couldn't help but blurt out the other person's name.
"You're not dead!"
In Steve's report, Dio eventually died in the flames of the explosion that fought with him. However, the Dio who appeared in front of him clearly told Agent Carter that Dio was not dead.
"Yeah, I'm not dead." Hearing Agent Carter's words, Dio couldn't help raising his eyebrows, sat down on the chair in front of her, propped his chin up and revealed a wicked smile on his face, revealing his sharp Teeth: "Are you disappointed in this, Carter." As he spoke, Dior changed his sitting position and leaned forward slightly to reveal his still young handsome face: "In fact, I Not only did I not die, but even my appearance has never changed or aged. Long years can't take away my life, but you, Peggy Carter, has aged into such a rotten appearance in the years."
Speaking, Dio's eyes swept across Peggy Carter's face, with undisguised pity flashing in his eyes.
"At least, I didn't turn into a monster like you."
Clearly, even after seventy years, Agent Carter has not forgotten what Dior did.
"Vampire."
"What is a monster, it seems that even after all this time, your thoughts are still as rotten as they used to be, Carter. To me, everything in this world has a meaning, if the world If there is God’s word on it, then he has only one purpose in creating human beings, and that is to exist as food for vampires, pigs eat grass, humans eat pigs, and I eat humans, and human beings are the real rulers of all things.” /
"What a twisted mind, Dior."
Agent Carter clearly disagreed with Dior's shocking remarks.
"Is it twisted? Maybe what I said is the truth."
Dior didn't care.
He slowly got up from his chair and looked at Peggy Carter, who was dying in bed.
"It's 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. Trapped in this ugly body, the pain will easily take you away without even needing my hands."
"Are you willing to die so ugly?"
Walking to the bedside, Dio looked directly at Agent Carter, his words full of bewitchment.
"If you will, I will grant you eternal life and restore your youthful appearance."
While speaking, Dio took out a pale and eerie mask from behind him.
"Ghost face."
Looking at the mask in Dior's hand, Agent Carter couldn't help but mutter something.
Agent Carter is no stranger to this mask, and it can even be said that this mask is the key to everything that led to Dior's final choice to become a vampire.
The gaze of her eyes stayed on the stone ghost face in Dio's hand for a long time before Agent Carter retracted her gaze, she closed her eyes gently, and replied weakly but firmly: "I would rather die like this ugly, I don't want to live like a monster like you."
Clap clap-
In the face of Agent Carter's categorical refusal to answer, Dio's face did not appear to be angry, but raised his hand to gently encourage him to applaud.
"It's 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..."
In front of him, he said a few words to Carter with a smile.
However, in the next moment, the expression on Dior's face suddenly changed, and the smile on his face became worse: "But, why should I listen to you."
Speaking, without waiting for Carter to react, Dio grabbed the stone ghost face in his hand and slammed it over the other's face.
"I'm looking forward to what Steve will look like when he learns that you've become a vampire, hahahaha..."
[From Peggy Carter's legend...]
……
"You mean, Peggy Carter is missing?"
S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, Tri-Wing Building.
A look of astonishment flashed in Nick Fury's only intact eye as he listened to the news from Agent Hill.
"Agent, are you sure this message is correct."
"Sure, sir." Faced with the doubts expressed by Nick Fury, Agent Hill assured him without hesitation: "I have verified with Agent Sharon Carter that she once met during the day. Peggy Carter, but at night, there is no trace of the other party in the room."
Nick Fury also believed the information given by Agent Hill after hearing the series of assurances from Agent Hill.
However, after confirming the authenticity of the news, the expression on Nick Fury's face did not relax at all, but instead became a bit more solemn.
"Can you tell me how a woman in her nineties disappeared from her room?"
Peggy Carter is not only the former lover of Captain America, but also one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., so for this predecessor who has a profound influence on S.H.I.E.L.D., whether it is Nick Fury or Hill Agents are very serious.
"I don't know, sir."
In fact, Nick Fury's question was also the question that flashed in Agent Hill's mind before when he knew this information.
"Actually, I've arranged for agents to investigate everything around Peggy Carter's house, but none of them see Peggy Carter coming out of his room." As a gray-haired The old lady, Peggy Carter is also a very visible target in a sense, but strangely, all the people living nearby have not found any trace of each other.
Even, even on the roadside cameras, there was no footage of Peggy Carter walking by.
"I suspect that there's something eccentric in this, and that doesn't even rule out the possibility of containment."
In doubt, Agent Hill offered his 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 scp foundation and the frequent display of containment effects by the containment expert Long, especially before the Avengers once The existence of the [Dog Charm] and the [Dragon Charm] that he fought personally has greatly increased Nick Fury's attention to the containment.
Even when I learned that the containment effect of the [Dog Charm] that appeared in the previous Avengers battle was actually able to generate undead magic, even the determined Nick Fury had a trace of it at this moment. shake. After all, this is an immortal body. Even if Natasha knew the side effects of the containment from Natasha's mouth, it still couldn't erase Nick Fury's desire for this spell.
If you can get this [Dog Charm], for S.H.I.E.L.D., it will undoubtedly be a powerful weapon that is not weaker than Loki's scepter. With the end of the New York War, Thor took the universe cube away , Now only the magic scepter used by Loki is left in S.H.I.E.L.D.~IndoMTL.com~ Unfortunately, Nick Fury's idea is good, but it is a pity that the spell was taken away by the dragon, the foundation, early. Experts gave it to containment, and Nick Fury should never have had a chance to contact him.
"This possibility is not ruled out."
Taking his thoughts back and forth, Nick Fury nodded lightly in the face of Agent Hill's inference.
Indeed, if it is the power of the containment, it is indeed possible to make Peggy Carter disappear in his room without knowing it.
Since this 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 have included 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, made by humans.
"Whether it's the effect of the containment, or whatever, we have to get Peggy Carter back."
After a little thought, Nick Fury gave Agent Hill an order again.
For the sake of reason, they all had to do something about the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Even though, in the depths of Nick Fury's heart, it is actually very clear that the possibility of being able to find each other is almost slim.
"Yes, sir."
He nodded and agreed without hesitation. Then, Agent Hill's face showed a hint of hesitation, and the stomach and the director of SHIELD in front of him asked, "That, sir, about Peggy Carter's disappearance. Do we need to tell the captain about it?"
“…”
Faced with Agent Hill's questioning, Nick Fury was silent for a while before replying in a deep voice.
"Not required."
