Chapter 32

Left foot stepping on right foot? The coffin lid really can't hold this down anymore

"Wardfa?" Thor couldn't help but blurt out a newly learned swear word. "This light is brighter than the vaults of Asgard!"

Li Ang was leisurely drinking his cola when he saw the golden light, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

This color... is not right.

Barton was blinded by the light and frantically grabbed the golden orb.

As the light faded, two coins lay quietly in his palm.

They were two silver coins, with exquisite angel wing patterns engraved along the edges and a cross plus sign in the center.

There were no earth-shattering energy fluctuations, nor any dazzling sound and light effects.

"Coins?" Barton was dumbfounded. "Five thousand dollars for just two commemorative coins?"

He instinctively reached out to rub the coin to see if it was pure gold.

"Don't move!"

Li Ang's voice suddenly became extremely serious, even carrying an unprecedented solemnity.

He strode up to Barton, staring at the two coins with an extremely complex expression.

[Resurrection Coin: A special item from CF (Crossfire). Use it within ten seconds of death to instantly revive with full health and remove all negative status effects.]

Although it's just a game item, its value is ridiculously high in the real Marvel universe.

This is a true reversal of life and death.

Countless images flashed through Li Ang's mind.

The cliffs of Vormir.

The Red Skull's disgusting face.

There was also a red-haired figure who leaped into the air for the Soul Gem.

If we had this...

Could that ending be rewritten?

But then, an even more fatal problem surfaced in Li Ang's mind.

What to do about Thanos' snap?

If I were to intervene myself, I could prevent Thanos from snapping his fingers, but then the story wouldn't unfold as expected.

"System," Li Ang murmured to himself, "Will I be affected by Thanos' snap?"

[The host is protected by a special dimension; the causal weapons of the Infinity Stones cannot erase the host's existence. Rule-based items produced by the gacha machine have a priority equal to or even higher than the laws of this plane.]

This is very interesting.

A smile returned to Li Ang's face.

It seems that in this universe, he, the gashapon merchant, is a complete bug.

"What's wrong, boss?" Barton was startled by Leon's reaction. "This coin... is it poisoned?"

"Poisonous? No."

Li Ang raised his head and took a deep look at this ordinary human agent who was the most inconspicuous in the Avengers, yet also the most family-oriented.

"Patton, listen up."

Li Ang pointed to the two resurrection coins, his tone more serious than ever before.

"When your heart stops beating, when your consciousness goes dark, when death has its scythe to your neck... they will pull you back."

The entire room fell silent.

The mockery on Tony's face vanished.

Jane stopped fiddling with her armor.

Even Thor stared wide-eyed at the two tiny coins in disbelief.

"You mean..." Coulson's voice was a little hoarse, "This is... a second life?"

Li Ang nodded. "This thing is called a resurrection coin. One coin is one life."

Patton's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the coin.

He quickly gripped it tightly, his palms covered in cold sweat.

Two lives!

In a world filled with monsters, aliens, and eccentric scientists, what is this for a mere mortal agent like him who still has a family to support?

This is priceless! It is a gift from God!

"Th...thank you!"

Patton stammered, carefully stuffing the resurrection coins into his tactical pocket, zipping it up, and patting it to make sure they were safe.

"Don't thank me yet, your luck seems to be just beginning."

Li Ang pointed to the remaining three gashapon capsules.

Barton swallowed hard; his mindset had completely changed.

With these two lives as a safety net, he felt confident that he could even take on Thor one-on-one.

He twisted open the remaining three gashapon capsules in one go.

The last one was a wad of waste paper and was completely ignored.

In the first two gashapon capsules, two pure white orbs of light floated out. They were not dazzling, but gave people an extremely light feeling.

As if drawn by something, the ball of light burrowed directly into Barton's forehead.

boom!

Barton felt a roar in his brain as countless strange muscle memories and power techniques were forcibly injected into his central nervous system.

That was the result of countless contractions, bursts, and stomps of the leg muscles.

That is the skill of utilizing the airflow generated by high-speed movement, how to generate reaction force by stepping on the ground dozens of times in one second, and how to find a fulcrum on the fluid that is air.

[Naval Six Styles - Shave]

【Naval Six Styles - Moon Walk】

a long time.

Barton slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sharpening, and the muscles in his legs trembled slightly, as if harboring some kind of eager impulse.

"How are you feeling?"

Leon leaned against the counter, watching Patton with great interest.

With the shaved head and mooncloth, Hawkeye looks even more like an assassin.

"That's strange..." Barton looked down at his feet.

"You'll know once you try it."

Li Ang pointed to the sky, "No track needed, no running start needed."

Patton nodded.

He took a deep breath and bent his knees slightly.

Under everyone's gaze, his figure suddenly blurred for a moment.

Swish!

Vanish out of thin air!

It's not the kind of invisibility you see in science fiction movies, but rather the speed is so fast that the eyes can't keep up with the movement of the physical object!

The next second, a sharp explosion rang out in the air.

Bang!

In mid-air, where there was nothing there before, a muffled sound, as if stepping on solid ground, suddenly emanated.

Patton's figure suddenly appeared five meters above the ground.

But he didn't fall.

He is walking.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

With each step, the air was compressed to its limit, emitting a visible white shockwave.

Patton seemed to be climbing an invisible, transparent staircase, steadily and surely reaching the dome of the base!

He strolled leisurely through the air, even performing a tactical roll in mid-air, before finally hanging upside down on the broken steel beam.

"This...this is impossible!"

Jane was completely devastated.

She rushed to the spot where Barton had jumped, waving the broken instrument wildly through the air.

"Under normal conditions, to generate a reaction force in the air sufficient to support a human body weight, pressure exceeding tens of tons must be applied to the air in an instant!"

"How high a frequency would that require? Fifty times per second? A hundred times per second?"

Jane clutched her hair, her eyes blazing with rage: "And according to action and reaction, his leg bone should have been comminuted during the first kick!"

"This is simply...like stepping on your own foot to reach the heavens!"

"If Niu's coffin lid can hold him back, I'll change my name to Stark."

Tony looked up at Barton, who was hanging from the ceiling like a giant gecko, and felt envious.

I'm totally jealous.

How many stabilizers did his Mark armor have installed in order to fly?

How many lines of code were written? How much fuel did it cost?

And what happened to this guy?

Can you fly by simply stomping your feet?

"This is so unfair!" Tony protested.

Li Ang shrugged. "And Tony, admit it, that's the difference between unlucky and lucky people."

After Patton had his fill of playing up there, he flashed and swooped down from a height of over ten meters.

Just as he was about to hit the ground, he stomped on the air again.

Bang!

The immense cushioning force allowed him to land lightly on the ground without even raising a speck of dust.

"Cool!"

Patton gripped the bow tightly, his face beaming with undisguised elation.

As an ordinary person without any superpowers, even if he is known as a sharpshooter.

He still felt a deep sense of powerlessness when facing those non-human monsters.

Whether it's the weakness in close combat or the lack of mobility, these are fatal flaws.

But now?

Shave granted him ghostly speed, Moonwalk gave him air superiority over all terrains, and then there were the high-explosive arrows.

He is now an assassin-type ADC with extremely high mobility, able to cut into the backline at any time, and kite opponents in the air!

"A sharpshooter?" Li Ang shook his finger. "No, from today onwards, please call him the flying Grim Reaper."

Coulson watched this scene and silently took out the card the chief had given him.

This isn't a gashapon machine at all.

This is clearly S.H.I.E.L.D.'s future strategic arsenal!

I absolutely have to buy it! I'd sell everything I own to buy it!

Just as everyone was still immersed in the shock brought by Hawkeye, a somewhat timid voice broke the noise.

"that……"

Banner rubbed his hands nervously. He looked at Barton, who was full of excitement, then at Leon, who was calm, and finally pointed to the gashapon shop.

"Boss, I noticed that previous customers... seem to have left behind quite a few gashapon capsules?"

Banner swallowed hard, a hint of longing in his eyes.

Li Ang looked at the gentle man who had a green beast living inside him, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Last time, Obadiah only used half of the gacha pulls before leaving, leaving more than two thousand gacha pulls unopened.

Last time, Banner used a calming spell to suppress the volatile Hulk.

If I'm incredibly lucky this time, I might draw the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

Hulk descended from the sky and unleashed a powerful strike, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

Just imagining this scene is hilarious.

"Go ahead and open it; consider it an employee benefit."
