[Frog] Chapter 371: Indirectly Avoiding Death
🕑 Added 2025-03-17 04:20:45 +0000 UTC"Don't worry, it's just that the time hasn't come yet. Quicksilver probably has his own pursuits—maybe he wants to undergo a transformation before appearing before you again."
Alan's eyes turned as he began pondering about Quicksilver. Based on the movie's storyline, after joining the X-Men, Quicksilver was supposed to die in the Age of Ultron incident.
But the Ultron event was absolutely impossible to happen. The Mind Stone inside the scepter was now within the Red Queen, and Vision would not appear.
Therefore, Quicksilver wouldn't die—he had indirectly prevented Quicksilver's fate of dying.
At first, Wanda was a bit lost. Following Alan to the galaxy meant she had naturally lost contact with Quicksilver. That was understandable.
But now that she was back on Earth, why hadn't Quicksilver contacted her yet?
Before she met Alan, Quicksilver was the only family she had. She was deeply worried that he might have died.
Hearing Alan's reassurance, Wanda gently nodded. "Maybe that's the case."
Letting go of her worries, she immediately leaned closer to Alan, as if glued to him and unwilling to part.
She wrapped her arms around Alan, resting her head lightly on his shoulder. "Anyway, I have my master taking care of me now—I'm not alone anymore!"
Alan was speechless. It seemed that the Red Queen had brainwashed Wanda too thoroughly—she kept addressing him as "Master," just like the Red Queen did.
"Alan!"
Scott, wearing the Ant-Man suit, stood before Alan and Wanda, looking as excited as a child.
Pressing the red button on his right, Scott vanished before their eyes in a flash of light.
"Where did he go?" Wanda curiously stood up. He had disappeared in the blink of an eye?
Was this the ability of the Ant-Man suit? The power to shrink a person?
Hank Pym, discussing the crucial aspects of the Ant-Man suit, spoke solemnly, "Scott, never mess with any part of that suit!"
Thinking of his wife, Hank couldn't help but sink into sorrow.
At that moment, golden light suddenly began to emerge in the air, forming a circular portal that flashed and expanded.
Wanda quickly stood up in alarm, positioning herself in front of Alan.
This made Alan feel both amused and helpless. Did he really seem so weak that he needed Wanda to protect him?
Seeing the portal, Alan immediately knew who was coming.
But…
A figure stepped out from the glowing ring, their face obscured.
Scott cautiously retreated. He couldn't return to his normal size just yet, but if this newcomer was an enemy, he could catch them off guard with a punch to the face!
"Empe... Alan."
Ancient One emerged from the Sanctum Sanctorum. Hela had asked her to find Thor’s whereabouts, but the more she thought about it, the more something felt off.
Fortunately, with the Time Stone back in her possession, she could once again glimpse into the future.
She suddenly realized that Hela was searching for Thor with murderous intent.
That wouldn’t do—she would essentially become an accomplice!
At that moment, only one person came to mind—Alan. Only he could stop Hela!
Ancient One nearly blurted out "Emperor" but quickly corrected herself when she saw the two unfamiliar faces beside Alan.
One of them was as small as an ant. Was he from an ant-like alien race? That wasn't the point right now.
"Ancient One?"
Alan's gaze fell on the necklace around her neck—the Time Stone.
How had it returned?
Who had retrieved it for Ancient One?
The storyline was shifting again, and suddenly, Alan felt like things were getting interesting.
