Chapter 345 She's older than you
When the Phoenix Force arrives on the moon, the Avengers and mutants fight tooth and nail for the girl Hope.
The only truly relaxed person present was Connors. He showed no signs of tension whatsoever, and even left a fake "Kusama" behind while he dashed off to Iliana's Hell's Borderlands.
"Mystery" Iliana sat on a high-backed chair in the border of hell, arms crossed, legs crossed and occasionally shaking, her fair calves trembling.
Her job was simply to keep "Black Widow" trapped on the border of hell; she didn't need to get involved in the rest.
Natasha, the "Black Widow," stood with her legs spread apart and arms crossed inside the fiery cage, scrutinizing the maggot outside.
"Logically, you should have trapped me and then immediately turned your attention to the other Avengers."
Natasha raised an eyebrow at Iliana. Although Iliana's expression was completely nonchalant, Natasha felt that something was hidden behind that expression.
"No need. You shut up too. I don't want to see you open your mouth again until he arrives," Iliana snorted dismissively.
Unlike humans who claim to be equal, mutants are divided into five mutant ranks, and the classification of various abilities shows that they are a race that respects strength.
"Magical" Iliana also values strength, and she simply couldn't be bothered to waste words on "Black Widow," whom she could easily crush with a single finger.
"who is he?"
Natasha was certain that "Magician" wouldn't kill her, so she ignored Iliana's danger and instead pressed Iliana for answers to her questions.
"It's me, Natasha."
Connors appeared unexpectedly next to Iliana, the "Ghost," and spoke to Black Widow.
The "secret guest" seemed startled:
"You can actually go directly to the border of hell?"
She had been sitting with her arms crossed and legs crossed, but as soon as she saw Connors, she quickly stood up, and her arrogant expression turned into a docile one.
"Limbo" is not a real hell, but a dimensional space controlled by Iliana, who can freely enter and exit it; she is the queen of this place.
But Connors' sudden intrusion made "Mystery Guest" Iliana's hair stand on end. She once again personally experienced Connors' mystery and powerful strength. Her expression became more devout and her voice more gentle.
Natasha, the "Black Widow," glanced at Connors, a look of confusion on her face:
"Who exactly are you?"
Her knowledge of Connors was limited to him being a newly minted Omega-level mutant who remained unnoticed while Cyclops led the mutants against the Celestials, who intercepted "Nova" over New York City as it was about to crash into a passenger plane, and what had just happened today.
Aside from that, she didn't know Connors any better than the other Avengers.
Before Connors could speak, "Black Widow" Natasha shifted her gaze from him to "Gryphon" Iliana, who was standing to the side with her head down, looking as docile as if she had become a different person.
At this moment, Black Widow's brain cells felt like they were about to boil.
Instinctively, she felt that if she could establish a relationship with Connors, given his mysterious ability to subdue "Magical" Iliana and his previous demonstrated strength, it might be of great help in the current operation to win over Hope.
This idea reached its peak when Connors waved his hand, directly dispelling the fiery cage.
"The 'Flame Lord' ability is really useful," Connors thought to himself.
Not only in Limbo, the world controlled by the Magik, but also when the Phoenix Force arrived on the moon, Connors immediately tried it and found that his ability to control fire could also work on the Phoenix.
It was precisely because he controlled the "Phoenix" and did not immediately possess Hope that the girl would have transformed into a world-destroying phoenix on the spot, and the Avengers and mutants present would have been completely out of the picture.
After finishing his thoughts, Connors was about to talk to "Black Widow" about "Mr. Fantastic" Reed, hoping to get some information out of the Avenger.
But when he turned his gaze to Natasha, the top agent "Black Widow" was lazily stretching, revealing her stunning figure.
Her slightly wavy red hair cascaded down her back from her shoulders as she stretched her waist, perfectly complementing Natasha, the "Black Widow," who was dressed in a black bodysuit.
Her slightly parted, yawning lips were incredibly soft, as evidenced by the marks left by her teeth lightly biting her lower lip.
"Wait a minute, why are you biting your lip after yawning? What are you doing? Trying to seduce me?"
Connors looked amusedly at the "Black Widow" across from him, striking poses, but didn't say anything, instead keeping his eyes glued to her as she did.
"Iliana, you can go out for a moment," Connors said in a low voice to the obediently standing "Miracle" beside him.
"Mystery" agreed and, without hesitation, a golden disc rose from beneath her feet, swallowing her body and returning her to the lunar surface.
At this moment, only Connors and "Black Widow" remained in Limbo. Seemingly to seize the initiative, "Black Widow" Natasha spoke first:
"I'm very curious that 'The Secret Agent,' who always defies everyone, is so obedient to you."
"Stop testing us," Connors said. "There's no one else here."
Black Widow smiled, but her words remained rambling:
"Just like in the movies, a mysterious person who appeared in this world less than a month ago possesses immense power, making the 'Mickey,' who defies everyone, so obedient—."
"You wouldn't happen to be the true master of this border of hell, would you?"
Connors smiled and shook his head:
"I'm not. You're just like that 'Black Widow' I know; not a single word you said to me when we first met was true."
Black Widow was stunned.
"The amount of information in that sentence—did he come from the past? The future? This world? Or another world? He seems to be very familiar with another 'me'? He has no technological artifacts on him, relying solely on his own power to travel through time?"
Connors's words gave Black Widow much to think about. She lowered her head and pondered for a long time before looking up at Connors:
"Is she prettier than me?"
Even Connors hadn't expected this, and couldn't help but ask:
"What?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Natasha, the "Black Widow," move lightly, circle around him, and secretly pull down the zipper of her tight-fitting suit a little.
The contrast between his snow-white skin and black battle suit was striking, Connors admitted honestly:
"You two look exactly alike, except for your hairstyles."
Seeing that "Black Widow" had intentionally or unintentionally puffed out her chest, Connors corrected her:
She's older than you.
