Marvel's Overlord

Chapter 39 The chapter title was eaten by William again

When William found Skye, Skye was hitting the sandbags one by one, with Ward guiding her. .biqugev William walked up and said hello, "Hey, Skye, Ward." Skye continued to punch and responded casually. Maybe it was because what happened just now made her a little embarrassed, and now she was a little embarrassed to see William again. . Instead, Ward turned his head and responded, "Hi, William. How are you? Is the injury better?" "Yes, much better, thank you." William replied. After speaking, he walked to Ward who was holding the sandbag, waved his hand to him, and motioned for Ward to step aside and let him hold the sandbag.

Ward: "Your injury is probably not completely healed yet, is it okay?" William said in a teasing tone, "It's okay. The strength of Skye's punch has no effect on me at all." After saying that, he looked at Si Kai. Kai blinked. When Ward heard what William said, he stepped aside. William stepped forward and put his right shoulder on the sandbag. He put his hands around his waist and held the sandbag in a push-forward posture. After holding on, William turned to Ward and said, "By the way, yesterday's 'bomb' was powerful enough, wasn't it? Is it to your taste? The team may have to face these often in the future, and you should no longer feel that you are here to lead." It's your child's fault, and you want to leave, right?" "It's a blast, but it has nothing to do with me. I have no sense of participation at all." "Don't worry, if I can, I will give you a 'head'." "Then I Do I need to thank you properly?"

William was busy chatting with Ward, and he didn't notice that Skye kept glaring at him fiercely after he teased her about her power. It seemed that the teasing just now made her a little angry. In fact, even if William noticed it, it was completely true. On the contrary, he still thought that Skye's expression was so fierce and so cute. Skye found herself staring at William for a long time, but William was chatting hotly with Ward and didn't notice her at all. The man didn't say much and just kicked the sandbag with his whip.

William was startled by Skye's sudden attack. "Whoa, oh, oh, you want to kill me?" William exclaimed exaggeratedly, turning his head to look at Skye. Skye himself didn't know why. He was still very angry at first. When he saw William's exaggerated reaction, he suddenly laughed: "I'm just teaching you a lesson. Who told you to look down on me?" "Okay, okay, don't be angry. , I apologize. Come on, keep going." William also said with a smile on his face.

The two were having a loving interaction here, and "Hiccup~" Ward next to him suddenly burped. The interaction between William and Skye was interrupted by this burp. William looked at Ward in surprise: "What have you eaten? Are you so full?" "I haven't even eaten breakfast yet. I just seemed to have eaten something bad suddenly." , and then suddenly felt very full." Ward also felt a little strange, and then murmured as if he suddenly thought of something, "Dog food? Strange, why did I suddenly think of this?" "What did you say?" "Ah, it's nothing. I just feel a little weird. Okay, you can continue practicing, I’m going to have breakfast.”

"Why is he still having breakfast when he's so full that he burps?" Skye asked William next to him with some confusion. Skye didn't hear Ward's murmuring just now, but William heard it clearly, so he explained to Skye, "His fullness is the fullness of his soul." "What do you mean?" Skye still didn't quite understand. William saw Skye still looking confused and whispered something in Skye's ear. After hearing this, Skye gave William a hammer, and then said, "We are really that obvious?" "Maybe." William said uncertainly.

William was thinking about Ward eating dog food when Skye suddenly shouted "Oops!"

William was startled: "What's wrong?"

Skye explained, "Ward is my SO. It would be terrible if he knew about us. According to the regulations, agents are not allowed to have feelings while working."

"First, you are not an official SHIELD agent; second, the regulations just say not to bring personal feelings to the mission."

"But how is this possible? For example, when you faced the big robot yesterday, you were given two choices: First, I was killed by that robot, but you could take the opportunity to destroy the robot and save many ordinary people; second, you Save me, but because of saving me, that robot was unorganized and caused many casualties to ordinary people you don't know. Which one do you choose?" Hearing Skye ask about the Agents of SHIELD version, although he had never been in love in his previous life, But William, who had been influenced by various versions of the proposition on the Internet, replied without hesitation, "Save you!" Skye smiled sweetly when he heard William's answer, but immediately put on a serious look and said, "But our The mission is to protect the safety of ordinary people. Have you forgotten the purpose of SHIELD? We are a line of defense!"

"This" William was a little confused by Skye's serious question. And this reminded him of the reason why he had considered leaving SHIELD before, which was precisely because personal 'emotions' sometimes conflicted with missions. Just like the famous trolley problem, five people are tied to the front of the track where the trolley is running, and one person is tied to the other track. And you hold the joystick in your hand to change the track of the tram. Would you sacrifice one person to save five people?

William was not a saint. He would have made a simple choice: if the six people were strangers, he would have chosen to let the trolley hit the single person. If that single person is William's mother Susan, or Skye, Spider-Man, Coulson, etc., these people he cares about, and the other five are strangers. He would let the trolley hit those five people without hesitation and without even touching the lever. Even if the mission is to save those five people, and that single person begs William to pull the lever, William will remain unmoved.

This is the problem. Being an agent sometimes requires you to face some trade-offs, and you often have to sacrifice your personal self to achieve your greater self. Nick Fury, as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., is very experienced in this area, and he must do the same. But agents are people, not machines. The Bahrain Island incident can be said to be a very typical trolley problem. On one side is a little girl and on the other side are four fellow agents from the team. Even the experienced and extremely capable Melinda May changed her temperament drastically after she killed a little girl and saved four agents in the Bahrain Island incident. The little rookie. After Mei rescued those agents, she was praised by her leaders, respected by her colleagues, and honored as Iron Cavalry. But who knows her inner torment?

Now that Skye has raised this question, William is wondering whether to tell Skye that he wants to leave SHIELD.

Seeing William frowning and thinking for so long without making any movement, Skye said with some schadenfreude, "Ha, I can't answer it." Hearing Skye's teasing words, William suddenly woke up. Looking at the beautiful Skye in front of him, he didn't want her to become a ruthless person who had to do something that made him feel extremely tortured for the sake of the mission.

William didn't want Skye's heart to be tortured. He recalled the time he watched the show in his previous life: Skye's mother's temperament changed drastically due to the tragic experience, and she finally chose to become an enemy of SHIELD. On one side is her companion who she has been with day and night and shared life and death with, and on the other side is her mother who she has been searching for for many years but finally found with whom she spent a warm and happy time. Skye is caught in a dilemma. In the end, his biological mother wanted to kill him because he stopped the unjust mother. In order to save his daughter, his biological father strangled his mother, his beloved wife, to death in front of her daughter.

William didn't want to see such a tragedy happen again, and if Skye didn't leave SHIELD and follow the original trajectory, this scene would almost certainly happen. So William decided to tell Skye his thoughts about leaving SHIELD and his previous mental journey. William leaned into Skye's ear and whispered, "I'm ready to leave SHIELD." Skye was shocked: "Why?" William decided to make it clear directly, so he said what he had said to Nick Fury before. What he did, what happened with Hydra, and what he was going through when he faced the tram problem he told Skye all at once.

The amount of information was so large that Skye was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. It took him a long time to say, "Is this the way the director of SHIELD behaves?" According to William, if Nick Fury is the person who does this, Then the information recorded in the blackened intelligence about his parents might not be very good. In order to cover up his uneasiness and nervousness, Skye then asked, "What is Hydra? I have read history books, Hasn't it been eliminated by Captain America?" William didn't notice Skye's strangeness, and he kept explaining about Hydra. After Datong finished speaking, William then asked, "So I decided to leave after helping solve the Hydra matter. How about it? Do you want to come with me?"

"This" saw Skye hesitate, and William knew that Skye was trying to find something to do with his parents. So he went on to say, "After we leave, we can do what we want without being bound by various rules and responsibilities. We can go find your parents together." Although William said this, Skye remembered that William had said that he That kind of domineering power can only have special effects when you reach a very powerful level, and SHIELD is right in front of you, and your only clue points to SHIELD. "I have to think about it again. Sorry, I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a rest." After Skye said that, he turned and left. "Hey" William wanted to call Skye, but Skye did not look back, but left faster. Looking at Skye who left without looking back, William always felt as if he was about to lose something important.

"You shouldn't! Why didn't you agree? Did I miss something?" William murmured.
