“Agatha, I have brought Ryan Sullivan here as agreed.”
"Furthermore, Rein Sullivan has already signed a contract with me, so he cannot attack Ghost Rider."
"The rest is up to you... B."
Chapter 241 The Beginning of the Avengers
Unbeknownst to Raine, Mephisto had allied with Agatha, the former chief witch of the Chaos Witches.
Of course, even if he knew, Renn wouldn't care.
Even though he had signed a contract with Mephisto, preventing Raine from openly attacking Ghost Rider, his subordinates were not covered by the contract.
It's like the wordplay tricks that Mephisto, the devil, often uses when he's deceiving people.
Rennes used the same tactic when signing Mephisto.
Fight the devil with the devil's methods.
I can say that I am carrying on the legacy of my ancestors and learning from the barbarians' superior techniques to subdue them.
Moreover, until Mephisto, the Witchheart, and Ghost Rider push S.H.I.E.L.D. to the brink, Reyn doesn't plan to send his men into action.
This is a great opportunity to find many treasures from S.H.I.E.L.D.
After briefly considering my plans...
Rein quickly activated his divine sense to sense the trajectory of Ophelia and the others.
At this time, Ophelia and the others had already boarded Quinjet fighters and arrived in a border city of North America, not far from Texas.
Rein sensed Ophelia's location and quickly used the Five Ghosts Soaring Through the Sky Technique to directly enter an executive suite in a hotel.
Ophelia had just finished bathing.
Upon noticing the presence of another figure in the room, the person pulled a pistol from their bathrobe and swiftly pressed it against Renn's back.
But then, Ophelia felt a lightness in her hand.
Just as Ophelia realized something was wrong and was about to activate the trump card talisman given to her by Rein,
Ryan's voice quickly rang out, "Trying to murder your husband?"
Ophelia's previously wary mind immediately calmed down.
Immediately afterwards, Ophelia changed into her pajamas quite casually, giving Renn a charming and seductive look that was full of provocation.
The snake demon is rampant.
In response to Ophelia's provocation, Raine naturally had to use swift and decisive methods to subdue the demon.
However, Ophelia possesses the talent of a snake woman and is quite powerful in combat.
The battle lasted for more than four hours.
After completely subduing Ophelia, the snake demon, and incorporating her into his pure Yin energy, Renn comfortably lit a cigar for himself.
"Little Ophelia, Tony Stark, Spider-Man, and the Fantastic Four, are they teaming up?"
"I suppose so. This is an Avengers plan that Nick Fury is implementing. S.H.I.E.L.D. is too constrained by the official system. Helping Tony and others build an independent superhero team and form an alliance with it will help S.H.I.E.L.D. gain more attention and autonomy in the Security Council."
Ophelia was exhausted, but when the topic turned to business, she was full of energy.
She is a typical career woman, and in terms of power and ambition, she is no less than the likes of Alexander and Nick Fury.
Fortunately, the other party had already been listed on the Investiture of the Gods.
Now that they have cultivated the Yin-Yang Harmony Path together, Rein is able to sense Ophelia's complete submission and admiration.
That's enough.
Anyway, Renn doesn't care about power or anything like that.
As long as Ophelia has the means, even if she wants to become the Queen of Earth in the future, Rein will not object.
Compared to Ophelia's ambitions, Rain was more interested in the emergence of the Avengers.
Although the Avengers are still in the early stages of their formation and haven't even officially adopted the name "Avengers" yet.
However, the alliance of Tony Stark, the original Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, and others already formed the prototype of the Avengers.
It has to be said that Nick Fury, that damn black guy, is a bit cunning, but he's incredibly capable.
Use its own power to bind the Avengers together and make the Avengers independent of the official system.
In this way, the freedom of superheroes can be satisfied, while also providing an explanation to the authorities regarding the management of superheroes.
It pleases both sides and can balance the constraints from both sides.
What's the difference between this and being both a player and a referee? It's so underhanded!
Clearly, even though Nick Fury is dead, Ophelia has fully accepted his insidious scheme.
These Avengers members are somewhat different from what Ryan remembered.
Ryan's mind raced, and he asked, "The Avengers plan sounds good. Who are the members?"
Ophelia raised an eyebrow and said, "The confirmed personnel so far include Tony Stark, Peter Parker, Reed Charlize, Barton, and Bruce Banner..."
This initial lineup is already quite strong.
After a moment's thought, Ryan said, "Daredevil, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and the Thing...?"
Ophelia shook her head and said, "Daredevil is too undisciplined and has absolutely no trust in the authorities. Human Torch is impulsive and prone to causing trouble, so he's only on the backup list. As for Thing, he's always urging Dr. Reed to conduct experiments, wanting to return to normal. And as for Invisible Woman..."
As she was speaking, Ophelia paused and rolled her eyes at Renn.
Renn: "..."
Ophelia continued, "It's all your doing. After leaving Dragon Ball Island, Invisible Woman Susan had a huge fight with Dr. Reed and is no longer planning to join the Avengers."
"And then there's her brother, Johnny the Human Torch, who's been trying to get Susan to get to know you."
It really is their own fault.
Surprisingly, Johnny the Human Torch is quite a good brother-in-law.
I'll send them a sum of money right away; they'll find it worthwhile.
But now is not the time to think about that. I'm not the kind of scumbag who's always looking for something better. At the very least, I need to put my pants on before I can be a little more assertive.
After thinking for a moment, Renn changed the subject, saying, "Besides these people, are there no other backup candidates?"
"Now that Earth has experienced several major upheavals, the superhuman power 1.2 has begun to manifest itself in the world. The Avengers' strength on paper may not be enough to fight them."
"Honey, I'll recommend a few people to you later, and I guarantee your team will be incredibly successful."
Ophelia rolled her eyes at Renn and said, "What kind of trick are you up to now?"
Renn smiled and said, "What bad intentions could I possibly have? At most, I would just help you fight against the dimensional demons and protect the Earth together."
If I get the chance later, I could trick the Avengers into going to hell and become their trailblazers.
Ophelia didn't care what Ryan thought, and instead cooperated fully, saying, "Not for now. The Avengers shouldn't be too powerful in the early stages, otherwise they'll be hard to control."
"And the Avengers should soon be getting two strong reinforcements, Captain America and Captain Marvel!"

Compared to Nick Fury's more obvious and somewhat domineering style.
Ophelia's methods are gentler, and her control is much stronger.
In the early Avengers, Ophelia chose people who were easy to fool, and only included Hawkeye Barton, without interfering much.
This attitude was enough to make Tony, Dr. Reed, and others trust Ophelia even more.
At the same time, as Ophelia said, the initial Avengers cannot be too strong.
Otherwise, Ophelia and her S.H.I.E.L.D. would be unable to effectively help or hinder the Avengers.
Just like Raine and the Ancient One, Ophelia would never have even considered recruiting such people.
Otherwise, if a big shot were to be recruited, who would the Avengers belong to?
A brilliant, arrogant, competitive, and wealthy Tony Stark as the temporary leader is enough, with the mild-mannered Dr. Reed acting as a mediator. In 22 episodes, Captain America joins as a mentor, and Captain Marvel joins as a combat leader.
Such a prominent figure is enough for now.
Even when he heard the names Captain America and Captain Marvel, Ryan was somewhat surprised.
"Have you found and contacted Captain America and Captain Marvel?"
Captain America and Captain Marvel are neither weaklings.
Captain America's strength is a mystery. Whether fighting minions or Thanos, he can go toe-to-toe with anyone. Ryan guesses that the power of the Tesseract must be hidden in his body.
Captain Marvel, on the other hand, is much more impressive.
In its normal form, Captain Marvel was able to tear apart a spaceship with her bare hands as soon as she was born. There are also rumors that she has a binary form. Once activated, it can connect to white holes, devour black holes, and destroy stars at will. It is definitely at the level of a single universe, or even possibly at the level of multiple universes.
However, logically speaking...
At this point, Ophelia and S.H.I.E.L.D. shouldn't be using that pager.
