Coulson's face immediately flushed in the even colder ice cave.
Li Chengfeng subconsciously glanced at him; this guy was completely hot-blooded.
"Coulson, calm down. Your idol is still an ice pop right now! Even if you're Captain America's dream man, you need to hold it in until we get back to headquarters!"
"Cough, cough, cough! You're the dream man! Your whole family is the dream man!" Coulson coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment, then retorted to Li Chengfeng, "It's really hard to imagine that America's most iconic hero was frozen in the North Pole for nearly a century like this."
"The hardest thing to imagine shouldn't be that he survived being frozen for so long! It's not that I'm questioning the capabilities of your America's scientists, but after all, that was technology from over a hundred years ago..."
If this were a pure Marvel Universe, Li Chengfeng wouldn't have asked a single extra question.
But since this was a mixed Universe, Li Chengfeng found anything strange to be normal.
"There's no need to worry about this. When the Super Soldier Serum was developed back then, the need to survive in extreme environments was taken into consideration, so it has extremely high resistance to both high and low temperatures..." Coulson's first half sounded like he was going to teach Li Chengfeng some scientific knowledge, but his latter half immediately gave him away, "And most importantly, the scientific expedition team member who fell down at the time had detection equipment on them, and it detected that Captain America still had vital signs."
Li Chengfeng rolled his eyes.
You should have said you'd already confirmed Captain America was alive!
However, Li Chengfeng wouldn't blame Coulson. After all, he knew Coulson was too excited, and it was good enough that he could remember this much.
In any case, let's dig him out first.
So Li Chengfeng once again released more Will Green Light for materialization, and a whole set of ice-breaking tools made of green light hung in mid-air. Then, under Li Chengfeng's control, they began to chisel away at the permafrost around Captain America.
After a series of clanging sounds, Captain America, along with the layer of ice around him, was chiseled out.
"Huh? Is that all?" Harley Quinn was a bit disappointed. "I wanted to see the old ice pop revive on the spot."
"Revive on the spot, my foot. Although he's still alive, it takes some time for his body functions to fully recover from a state of hibernation."
Li Chengfeng wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead. The tools materialized by Will Green Light were simply too sharp. The reason he kept the thick layer of ice around him, in addition to the reason he stated, was actually that he was afraid of accidentally leaving a wound on him.
They would be colleagues in the future, and that would look bad.
Although Li Chengfeng was certain that, given Captain America's moral standing, even if he did leave a wound on him during the excavation, Captain America wouldn't blame him.
"Ada, notify the scientific expedition task force that the matter is concluded and they can pack up their equipment and head back."
"You're too late. Before we came down, I already repatriated this scientific expedition task force through the Federal Bureau of Investigation's command authority. They've probably already loaded their equipment onto the vehicles and are preparing to leave."
Ada Wong had anticipated Li Chengfeng's order. In fact, when Li Chengfeng decided to dig himself, Ada Wong knew that the scientific expedition task force should not see what was going to happen next.
That's why they say Ada Wong understands people's hearts.
Although her individual combat strength was not outstanding in the Star Team, she was Li Chengfeng's adjutant, and it was not an exaggeration to call her an external brain.
After all, Li Chengfeng had a wild imagination and acted on impulse, so most of the details were actually refined by Ada Wong.
Seeing that Ada had arranged everything, Li Chengfeng nodded and directly opened a portal to the Airbus.
"W-what kind of ability is this?!"
Coulson's eyes widened. This was an ability not recorded in the data!
"This is teleportation magic, just a small trick. It shouldn't be recorded in the data, right? After all, it's a newly acquired ability, and this is the first time I'm using it in front of you."
Li Chengfeng threw the old ice pop, which looked like an irregular ice coffin, into the portal, then gestured for Coulson and the others to enter the portal.
So Coulson, Ada Wong, and Harley Quinn went in first.
Coulson and Ada Wong went to the equipment room first to see if there was any equipment for initial thawing.
The ice block was a bit too large and difficult to transport.
Harley Quinn, perhaps because of the extremely low temperature, had her crazy and erratic brain temporarily frozen. She didn't act wild but instead prepared to go to the medical area to get a set of detection equipment to reconfirm Captain America's vital signs and status.
Seeing this, Li Chengfeng was so moved he almost cried.
Harley Quinn was actually doing something serious. It was worth him sacrificing himself to become her empathic object, with his neck being kissed and bitten every time he saw her.
He was always sporting hickeys and lipstick marks; he had no innocence left.
After the three Agents, whose physical qualities had not yet exceeded the limits of ordinary people, returned to the Airbus, Li Chengfeng turned his head to call his beloved Death Goddess and her mischievous younger brother, the God of Mischief, back to the Airbus.
But he saw the siblings standing by the spot where Captain America had originally been. There was now only a large pit there, and the siblings were looking down at the pit.
"Hela, Loki, we should go."
"No, my God Queen, come here." Hela didn't even raise her head, directly calling Li Chengfeng over. "Something... is wrong here."
"I already said I don't want the position of God Queen... Sigh, never mind. What's wrong here?"
Li Chengfeng first closed the portal, preparing to go and see what the Asgard siblings had discovered.
Loki aside, Hela was a Heavenly Father-level powerhouse who was qualified to call herself a God. Her perception and reaction were at least superior to his own.
"Wait a moment."
Hela raised her hand, and a Night Sky Sword appeared from the void.
This move was similar to his materialization using Will Green Light. Li Chengfeng shaped Will Green Light through imagination.
Hela, on the other hand, used her Night Sky Sword as a mold, compressed her divine power, and used the surrounding elements to solidify it, finally creating a replica.
Although it sounded a bit complicated, it actually happened in an instant.
"What did you find? Why did you even bring out your sword?"
Li Chengfeng's heart tightened, and his expression became a bit more serious.
He still remembered "other things" mentioned in the system mission brief.
Could it be that Hela's stronger perception sensed something?
Hela did not answer Li Chengfeng's question. Instead, she activated her divine power, controlling the Night Sky Sword to plunge directly into the center of the deep pit, continuously piercing straight down.
Immediately after, she said to Li Chengfeng.
"Control the Will Green Light to follow the Night Sky Sword, then increase the frequency to illuminate everything below."
Hearing this, Li Chengfeng didn't hesitate. He adjusted the brightness of the Will Green Light to maximum, then extended it downwards along the hole pierced by the Night Sky Sword.
After going down about ten meters, Li Chengfeng felt that the Will Green Light had already touched the seawater beneath the ice.
Then, the Will Green Light illuminated the glacier and the seawater.
Facing the dazzling green light...
An eye, almost as large as the ice surface below, suddenly opened!
Li Chengfeng only froze for less than half a second before immediately opening his communicator and roaring:
"Take off immediately! Quick!"
"Motherf*cker, there's a huge starfish here!"
