[Answer this question correctly and you'll be rewarded with a Desert Eagle with unlimited bullets. If you answer incorrectly, one year of your lifespan will be deducted.]
"Infinite ammunition?" The reward for this question piqued Tony Stark's interest. "Infinite ammunition isn't something science can achieve. First of all, it doesn't conform to the laws of conservation of mass and energy. So, is this pistol a mashup of technology and magic?"
"Stark, don't you think you're boring?" Clint Barton said, "All we need to know is that this pistol is useful, right?"
"No wonder you're just 'Elite Killer' and not 'Archer'. How superficial," Tony Stark grumbled. "The true value of this pistol lies not in its use, but in the principle behind it. If we could decipher the principle behind its unlimited ammunition and successfully replicate it, do you know what that would mean?"
"This means the world is going to be in chaos," Phil Coulson interrupted. "If this infinite ammunition technology can really be applied to other weapons, Stark, it wouldn't be a good thing. I advise you to give up the idea of researching it. It's not like your armor that can protect people. On the contrary, it can only bring chaos and war."
"Coulson, I know what technologies should and shouldn't be researched." Tony Stark shrugged. "I shut down Stark Industries' weapons division, didn't I?"
"Well, let's look at the question." Clint Barton took a few steps forward, moved closer to the floating text, and circled the word "unity" with his finger. "This question means that the Avengers were actually not united at the beginning."
"Why don't I find it strange at all?" Phil Coulson said this while looking back and forth between Thor and Tony Stark.
The two had only met for a short while, but they had already fought each other for several rounds. If it weren't for the wrong place, I'm afraid the situation might have escalated into a physical fight.
It's not surprising that there is no unity.
"It's hard to imagine that we are not united when facing the Chitauri army." Clint Barton felt that he could not understand what his future Avengers were thinking. Facing such a powerful enemy, why didn't they work together?
"I think it should be Commander Fury," Phil Coulson said after looking at the options for a moment. "Commander Fury is the founder of the Avengers, and arguably their leader. He manages a massive organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. so well, let alone a small team of six. In reality, any team, any team composed of strangers, has to go through this process of unity and coordination, and it takes time to get used to each other."
"Oh, really?" Thor objected immediately. "I don't think I'd take orders from a bald man."
"But you did join the Avengers in the future."
"That doesn't mean I will obey orders completely." Thor said, "At least let me smile at someone I hate. Nick Fury can't do it yet."
"So, Thor, if you don't agree with Commander Fury, who do you think you should choose?" Phil Coulson asked, "Who can unite you and everyone else?"
"I don't know who it is, but I know who it isn't." Thor glanced at Tony Stark and said, "Tony Stark can be ruled out. It definitely isn't him."
"That's what I was thinking of doing." Tony Stark had no objection to this. He knew what kind of person he was. If he was asked to make all the team members cry, he would do it without hesitation. But if he was asked to build unity, forget it. He himself would not buy into that.
"And me, I can also be excluded.
Phil Coulson pointed at himself and said, "I'm not a member of the Avengers, nor am I the founder of the Avengers. I have no direct relationship with the Avengers. Even as an agent, I'm not the best in S.H.I.E.L.D. I can't imagine that an ordinary person like me can make you superheroes change."
"Then the options left are Captain America and Thor," said Clint Barton.
"This Captain America, is he the one wearing the stars and stripes and holding the shield?" Thor didn't know much about Captain America. "Why is he called Captain America?"
"Captain was a soldier during World War II. Originally a very skinny boy, he was determined to join the army and serve his country," said Clint Barton. "Because of his small stature, Captain was repeatedly rejected, but he refused to give up, forging his identity and signing up in different places. Of course, I'm not advocating forgery, but Captain's never-give-up spirit is worth learning from. Dr. Abraham Erskine, who was in charge of the super serum at the time, was also moved by Captain's spirit and ultimately selected him for his transformation. In the end, to prevent the plane from exploding in New York and injuring civilians, Captain chose to crash-land at sea..."
"He sounds like a resilient, brave, and selfless person. He's worthy of the title hero."
"Thor, the captain's qualities go far beyond that. He's incredibly courageous. Let me tell you, during a training session, Colonel Phillips disagreed with the doctor's choice of captain and threw a grenade into the team. Everyone instinctively dodged, but guess what the captain did? He threw himself on the grenade! While everyone else was thinking about themselves, he was the only one who chose others! Even though the grenade was fake, no one knew it at the time."
"This man is indeed very courageous."
"It's not just courage, it's wisdom too. One time, their team was running, and halfway through the race, they saw a flagpole on the side of the road with a flag on it. Their leader said whoever could get the flag down would get a ride. Everyone rushed up, trying their best to climb up, but the flagpole was too slippery, and everyone had used up a lot of energy, so no one could make it. The captain hadn't received the serum at that time and was still a small man. Do you know how he got the flag?"
"Uh, how did he get up there?"
"The captain didn't even climb! There was a big screw at the bottom of the flagpole. He pulled it out and simply brought the flagpole down! Who would have thought of that? Isn't that brilliant?"
"Uh, yes."
"Another time..."
"Coulson!" Clint Barton interrupted Phil Coulson with a headache. "I know you're a big fan of the Captain, but now's not the time to be star-chasing."
