The Star Team's Airbus soared above the stratosphere, flying at top speed towards the remote Arctic glaciers.
However, Li Chengfeng's mind was completely unable to focus on the mission.
Because the current scene was simply too unfriendly for him.
Three women sat on three separate sofas.
Hela, the Queen-type Big Sister, didn't care; she was still fiddling with Li Chengfeng's phone, and the Airbus's built-in network meant there was no fear of losing signal.
But the Demon Lord-type Big Sister and the Psychotic Big Sister exchanged glances, then focused all their attention on Hela.
This stance, both antagonistic and cooperative, was truly contradictory.
At first, Coulson was heartlessly enjoying the show from the sidelines.
But Loki, sizing up the situation, eventually dragged Coulson out of the lounge.
Li Chengfeng, watching this unfold, felt a bit emotional.
Fortunately, the Battle of New York hadn't happened in this Universe, otherwise he wouldn't have seen such a peculiar sight of a killer and a victim walking arm-in-arm.
But soon, he had no mind to tease Loki and Coulson internally.
Because Harley Quinn directly pressed him onto the sofa, straddling his lap face-to-face.
"My Pudding, I didn't expect you to be such a playboy, did I?" Harley Quinn's eyes were full of teasing and laughter, but her words made Li Chengfeng shiver involuntarily, "You tempted me to put a hole in Joker's head, shouldn't I do the same to you? You were the one who seduced me first…"
"Cough, cough, cough! Harley, what are you saying? What do you mean by seduction? That was a proper breakdown therapy."
Li Chengfeng wanted to explain, but Harley Quinn pounced on his neck and bit him hard.
For his current physical condition, it didn't hurt at all, just a slight itch; far from being violent or bloody, it was rather ambiguous.
"Still saying it wasn't seduction! You scumbag who doesn't admit, doesn't refuse, and doesn't take responsibility!"
"Slander! This is blatant slander! How upright of an FBI agent I am!"
Li Chengfeng's explanation was a bit forced; he could actually feel that what he had done did indeed have a touch of Aquaman's behavior.
If this were in the Republic General Bureau, he would be disciplined for conduct issues.
Of course, the matter itself wasn't big, but the problem was the women he had provoked…
They were a bit too formidable.
Seeing a hint of guilt on Li Chengfeng's face, Ada Wong snorted coldly from the side, her villainous femme fatale aura undeniable.
Li Chengfeng subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, then instinctively sighed.
Alas, since they were going to the North Pole, he naturally had to be fully armed, so Ada Wong's usual cheongsams, leather pants, short dresses, and black and white stockings could only lie in the wardrobe, lamenting their ill timing.
But who was Ada Wong?
She could see through what was on Li Chengfeng's mind, this seemingly Aquaman-like rookie.
"A few days ago, I bought a pair of patent leather boots." Ada Wong pulled Harley Quinn off, then made Li Chengfeng stand up, "If you like the Queen type, I can wear them for you when we get back, but now… go find Coulson and Loki for a men's tea party."
After speaking, she and Harley Quinn pushed and shoved Li Chengfeng out of the lounge area.
If Li Chengfeng wanted to, Ada Wong and Harley Quinn alone couldn't possibly make him leave.
But…
He couldn't ask for more!
Escaping the Shura field was a blessing!
"Oh, how incredible, you actually managed to come out alive."
Loki mocked without hesitation, looking at Li Chengfeng's near-death appearance.
But Li Chengfeng was already immune to this level of mockery; he gave him a middle finger as a greeting, then sat directly next to Coulson and immediately started discussing serious matters.
"That guy Director Fury letting you come with me on this excavation mission shouldn't be a sudden whim, right?"
Li Chengfeng poured Loki and Coulson each a glass of green carbonated drink that Harley Quinn had named "Fel Energy."
Even if he was unreliable, he would adhere to the principle of not drinking alcohol during a mission.
"Let me guess, as a Level Seven Agent with more experience than me, you certainly don't need me to help you gain qualifications or similar gilding, nor do you want me to join my Star Team." After clinking glasses with Coulson, Li Chengfeng continued, "Then he must want you to form another special team to take over those relatively lightweight supernatural incidents. The core of this new team would be Captain America, whom Director Fury designated, right?"
"I've always told Director Fury that we should just find a way to change Li's secondment into a transfer. You have a stronger overall vision than Director Fury and are the most suitable candidate for the next Director."
"Cough, cough, cough, don't praise me so much, I'll really get shy."
"Then we won't praise you. Back to the main topic, I died once a few years ago. It's said my heart stopped for over a minute. Thanks to the Doctors of the Federal Bureau of Investigation who saved me. After I recovered and returned, Director Fury indeed had me form a special emergency team."
At this point, Coulson smiled but subconsciously touched his chest with his left hand, still feeling lingering fear.
Having walked through life and death, and experienced that immense terror, he felt this way every time he recalled it.
"Actually, there was no such plan originally, but the members of the Star Team were becoming more and more extraordinary. We can't always use a cannon to swat a fly, can we? So the special emergency team came into being, aiming to form a low-spec Star Team."
Agent Phil Coulson could be said to have held nothing back, trusting his colleague Li Chengfeng completely.
This was a world of difference from Director Fury, who suffered from paranoia.
Li Chengfeng then learned from Coulson that after Director Fury granted him the authority to form a special emergency team, he had already almost completed its formation.
Unlike the Star Team, which was basically a purely combat unit.
The special emergency team, on the other hand, was developed in all aspects, from combatants to scientists to hackers, to deal with all possible situations.
Li Chengfeng initially thought this special emergency team would be the protagonist group from the American drama S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but after Coulson's introduction, Li Chengfeng realized he had underestimated the power of the modified mixed Universe.
First, the parts that were the same as the original.
Grant Ward, a Level Six Agent, whose combat scores were second only to Black Widow Natasha Romanoff.
His hidden identity was a HYDRA member, joining Coulson's Team to find the secret of Coulson's "resurrection from the dead," because his true superior, John Garrett, was already on his last legs.
Skye, a provisional Agent, a genius hacker, capable of crashing the Federal Bureau of Investigation's hundreds of millions of dollars worth of equipment with just a broken laptop.
Her real name is Daisy Johnson, and she is the unawakened Vibrating Woman.
Of course, regarding these two, Coulson only knew the first half of the information.
There were also Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons, the Science Babies Duo; they also hadn't changed.
But the next person made Li Chengfeng's long-dormant egg stir restlessly.
Federal Bureau of Investigation Level Two Agent, forensics expert.
Barry Allen.
