Chapter 221 Visit and Invitation
After hanging up Laura's communication, Russell couldn't help but look forward to it.
However, the expectation is the expectation, but Russell himself still maintains an indifferent attitude.
He didn't want to let himself down because the final result exceeded expectations.
"Oh!" Shaking his head with a smile, Russell left the laboratory.
Back in his room, he took out a black box, opened it, and a gold coin appeared in front of Russell.
"Curse?" Russell rubbed his fingers over the lines on the gold coin, but Russell really didn't notice anything else.
"Is it true that, as Laura said, the curse on this thing has been released?"
"So, since it has been released, what do you need this thing for?"
Mumbling in a low voice, Russell put the gold coin back into the box.
"Tuk Tuk!"
There was a knock on the door, and Russell, who was thinking, came back to his senses.
Stepping towards the door of the room, he opened the door.
It's Arthur.
"What's the matter, Arthur?"
Arthur said lightly: "It's time to prepare, young master."
"Ready?" Russell froze for a moment.
"Didn't Bruce Wayne say two days ago that he would come to visit today?" Arthur reminded.
Russell patted his forehead and said, "I'd have forgotten if you didn't tell me, it's today."
"Thank you, Arthur."
Arthur glanced at Russell expressionlessly, and said, "Master, go and change quickly, he should be here soon."
After the words fell, Arthur turned and left.
……
This is Bruce Wayne's first visit to Bloom House.
This time I came here alone, naturally because of the idea that suddenly appeared when I was in Gotham City to solve the S variant.
He wants to form a squad.
A team similar to the Avengers.
"Mr. Bruce."
Just as Bruce was thinking about how to get Russell to join, a rigid and serious voice came to mind, making Bruce turn around in a daze.
"Arthur." Nodding slightly to the old man in front of him, Bruce said, "Excuse me."
"Come in, Mr. Bruce." Arthur made a gesture of invitation, brought Bruce to the living room of the old house, and asked him to sit down.
"Please wait a moment, the young master will come right away." After Arthur said something softly, he asked, "Would you like tea or coffee?"
Bruce smiled gracefully and said, "Tea, thank you!"
Arthur nodded and walked out.
"Bruce!"
As soon as Arthur left, Russell came down from upstairs, greeted Bruce, and sat in front of him under the other's gaze.
Russell said, "Long time no see."
Bruce nodded: "Yeah, long time no see."
"It's been more than half a year since the last time, right? I heard that you went to a distant place?"
Russell nodded and said, "It's quite far."
At this moment, a tall and slender figure in a suit followed Arthur, carrying a plate.
Arthur pointed to Russell and the two, and said, "Go, take the things over there."
The corner of Rocky's mouth twitched, and he bent down to put two cups of tea in front of Bruce and Russell.
Seeing Loki, Bruce's eyes twitched.
If he remembers correctly, this Loki is Thor's younger brother, the prince of Asgard, and the so-called god in people's mouth.
But, why would you... take the plate here at Russell?
After Loki got up and left with the old butler, Bruce looked at Russell with puzzled eyes and said, "Why is he here?"
Russell picked up the tea and took a sip, and said, "He's been 'stored' here, of course we can't let him eat and drink for nothing."
"Storage?" Bruce frowned: "Who? Saul? He won't cause you any trouble here, right?"
"That's right." Russell said indifferently, "As for causing trouble, he doesn't have that ability right now."
Putting down the cup in his hand, he looked up at Bruce, smiled and said, "You didn't come here to chat with me, did you? What's the matter? Tell me."
Bruce looked straight, put Loki's matter behind his head first, and said, "You should know about the Avengers alliance that was formed not long ago."
"I know." Russell nodded slightly, and said, "Tony is one of them."
"Did he not invite you?"
Because of the fact that Thor's Hammer was mentioned by Bruce, after the incident of the S variant, Tony must know that Batman is about Bruce.
Shaking his head, Bruce said, "I didn't agree."
"Huh?" Russell asked suspiciously, "Why?"
"It's not suitable, the involvement between the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. is too deep." Bruce explained, and said, "Besides, I also want to build a team that is not involved with any forces, but in When faced with a crisis that we cannot solve alone, we can come together as a team to solve the crisis.”
Indeed, the involvement between the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. is too deep. Although the Avengers are an independent team, Black Widow and Hawkeye are agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Huh?" Russell was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Bruce to have such an idea after what happened last time.
Pointing to himself, Russell guessed: "So, you don't want me to join, do you?"
Bruce looked at Russell with a smile and said, "Yes, you are the first person I invited."
"Why did you invite me?" Russell asked curiously.
Bruce said: "Because you have enough power, and I know you to a certain extent, judging from what you are doing so far, it is very in line with the conditions for me to choose a teammate."
"Besides me, who else is your target? Tony?" Russell asked curiously.
Bruce shook his head and said, "Tony is not my target, because he is already a member of the Avengers and does not meet my conditions."
Hearing this, Russell raised his eyebrows and said, "There is something I forgot to tell you."
"Huh?" Bruce frowned slightly.
"A few days ago, I promised the Avengers and became their honorary member."
Bruce raised his eyebrows, frowned unconsciously, looked at Russell, and asked, "Honorary member?"
"Yes." Russell smiled and said, "In that case, do you still invite me?"
Bruce lowered his head and smiled wryly, and sighed, "They're really fast."
After the words fell, Bruce had a smile on his face, and said: "Since you can become an honorary member of the Avengers, you can also become an honorary member of the team I formed?"
"Ok?"
Bruce sat up straight, and said with a smile, "I was worried that I wouldn't be able to persuade you to join, but Tony provided a good solution, honorary player..."
"Hey, now you have no reason to refuse."
After the words fell, Bruce smiled and looked at Russell, waiting for Russell's answer.
