Chapter 72 - Chapter 73 The music festival hadn't ended yet, but Rhodey had already left with Gwen.

The music festival hadn't ended yet, but Rhodey had already left with Gwen.

Gwen said goodbye to her father when she left.

Her mother seemed to have secretly slipped her something, and Director George, seeing this, almost couldn't resist pulling out his gun on the spot.

Night, Rhodey's residence in Paradise Tower.

Rhodey, bringing Gwen home formally for the first time, celebrated her successful performance tonight.

The two of them had some wine.

Although Gwen was not yet of age, this was Rhodey's home, so who could control it?

In fact, with Gwen's physical fitness, a little alcohol wouldn't make her drunk.

But at this moment, Gwen's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes looking at Rhodey were a bit hazy.

"You're beautiful!"

Rhodey gently stroked Gwen's cheek.

Gwen, like a small kitten, gently rubbed against his palm.

Outside the window, the night grew deeper.

Time gradually approached midnight.

At this time, countless families had already fallen asleep.

But for some people, they still couldn't sleep!

Like Rhodey!

And like Steve!

Steve suffered from insomnia tonight...

Although he had often suffered from insomnia for a period after waking up from the ice, that was years ago.

Now he no longer suffered from insomnia.

But tonight;

Steve still suffered from insomnia!

Just now, Director Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. was announced to have died!

But he did not die of natural causes; he was assassinated.

The location was on the streets of Washington D.C.

Assassinating the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. on the street, and even chasing him to Steve's residence, the assassin with a metal arm successfully killed Nick Fury!

Steve watched helplessly as Nick Fury died despite rescue efforts, which was a very heavy matter for him.

Although Steve had seen death countless times and personally experienced the passing of close friends, Nick Fury's death tonight still deeply touched him.

Not to mention;

Nick Fury also gave him a USB drive before he died.

Steve didn't know what was inside.

But it must be very important!

And;

Something big might have happened to S.H.I.E.L.D., and it was a major incident!

Otherwise, Nick Fury wouldn't have dragged his seriously injured body to him for help, nor would he have warned him not to trust anyone when handing him the USB drive.

If something big hadn't happened to S.H.I.E.L.D., would Nick Fury, as the Director, say such a thing?

Obviously not!

Although Steve was a soldier, he was not lacking in wisdom.

Therefore;

He could almost be certain that a major problem had occurred within S.H.I.E.L.D., and Nick Fury, the Director, had very likely been sidelined before this!

This was also why Nick Fury would rather trust him, a soldier who had just defied him, than trust the elite Agents under him.

....

The sky soon brightened.

In the bedroom, Rhodey had only just fallen asleep for an hour or two.

Many things happened last night.

And Gwen had completely become his woman!

At this moment, Rhodey, unable to sleep, opened his eyes and looked at Gwen, who was sleeping soundly beside him, without disturbing her.

"System, the sign-in for today hasn't been done yet, right?"

"Sign in now!"

Having nothing to do, Rhodey just made up for the sign-in he missed last night.

After all, in that situation last night, how could Rhodey have any thoughts of signing in?

'Ding~!'

"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining Magnetic Field Manipulation from the Mutant Max Eisenhardt!"

Magnetic Field Manipulation?!

A hint of surprise flashed in Rhodey's eyes.

Good heavens!

His bad luck was finally over!

This time, he actually drew an ability like Magnetic Field Manipulation directly.

As for Max Eisenhardt?

Actually, this person also had another name, Erik Lehnsherr!

Which was the famous Magneto!

The showman Old Man Wan!

How could Rhodey not know Magneto's signature ability?

Although in the old movies, Old Man Wan's performance was always that of a showman, seeming to only be able to control metal.

But in reality, Old Man Wan's ability was to control Magnetic Field, and metal was just a byproduct.

In the Apocalypse incident, Old Man Wan once used his Magnetic Field Manipulation ability to directly control the global Magnetic Field!

Causing Magnetic Field chaos all over the World, and the entire World fell into a scene of doomsday!

Isn't that much stronger than the showman in the old version?

In addition, magnetism can also generate electromagnetic force, and electromagnetic cannons are also an application of electromagnetic force.

Therefore;

Rhodey, having obtained Magnetic Field Manipulation, could also practice an electromagnetic cannon for fun.

Like cosplaying Misaka Mikoto.

Of course, Rhodey would never cross-dress!

"Gwen really brought me good luck!"

Rhodey sighed in his heart, his gaze softening as he looked at the girl sleeping soundly beside him.

If Rhodey were to say that his good luck today wasn't brought by Gwen, he would truly find it hard to believe.

The last time he had a stroke of luck and drew Cyclops, it seemed to be also because he had confirmed his relationship with Gwen.

And this time;

His luck was even more astounding!

He directly landed a big move!
