Mayo Medical Center, founded in Rochester, Minnesota in 1864, is a comprehensive medical center with a long history and the world''s first private comprehensive, non-profit and group medical institution.


    Mayo Medical Center ranks first among all hospitals in the United States, and it is also the only medical institution that has won five-star praise from CMS (Medical Insurance Service Center).


    But this is not the point, because Colonel rod''s physical condition can''t support him to go to Minnesota, but doctors from Mayo Medical Center are equipped at the headquarters of s.h.i.e.l.d. in New York.


    After a series of intense treatment, when Colonel rod woke up, he was already lying on the hospital bed with the smell of disinfectant at the tip of his nose. He looked at these friends around him, including Tony, sol, Captain, rocky, Starland and so on.


    Colonel rod''s first question was not about his body, but:


    "Has the alien solved it?"


    Looking at rod with an excited look, Tony was very upset. He patted rod on the back of his hand:


    "Solved."


    Tony''s answer relieved the headmaster.


    Looking at the relieved war machine, the captain was silent for a moment. He looked a little tangled: "rod, there''s something I think I should tell you about your body..."


    Looking at the captain''s hesitant look, he gave a subconscious "click" in his heart, but Colonel rod waved his hand. He tried his best to be calm:


    "It''s all right. Come on, I can bear it."


    After taking a deep breath, the captain said slowly, "your spine has been penetrated. With current human technology, this crushing penetration cannot be recovered."


    Tony frowned slightly, and a sense of seriousness flashed in his eyes:


    "I remember rod injected with the desperate virus."


    But rocky sighed. He took a deep look at rod, his eyes flashing helplessness:


    "This is the trouble. The spear in the dark elf''s hand contains extremely special power. While breaking rod''s lumbar spine, this power also infects rod''s body."


    Colonel rod was stunned, and a hesitation flashed in his eyes: "so?"


    However, just as Rocky tried to go on, the silent strange spoke:


    "If it''s just a simple comminuted fracture of the lumbar spine, whether it''s Asgard or we mages, we have a way to make you stand up again, but because of the infection of the spear, your body has been deprived of the right to contact the extraordinary ability."


    "I have a certain understanding of desperate serum. That serum has some extraordinary power, so..."


    Strange didn''t go on, but he believed the other party knew what he meant.


    With strange''s explanation, rod bit his lower lip. He was silent for a long time: "that is to say, I can only use a wheelchair for the rest of my life?"


    Looking at the silent rod in front of him, strange flashed a touch of guilt in his eyes:


    "Rod, I''m sorry."


    But rod shook his head. He smiled miserably, and then waved his hand to hide the smile: "what do you apologize for? In fact, I have thought about this problem for a long time. After all, I am a soldier, and this is my destiny."


    Strange opened his mouth. He seemed to want to say something, but he didn''t say it in the end.


    In fact, it is not necessarily rod lying in bed. It may be Tony, the captain, and even everyone present.


    But because rod has the least effect, so


    Looking at rod in front of him, strange''s eyes glittered with complexity. He was thinking whether he was right to do so or whether he was too cold-blooded?


    While Tony seemed to want to say something: "but..."


    However, rod waved his hand and interrupted Tony:


    "OK, I''m not as fragile as you think. If there''s nothing wrong, go away quickly. Don''t you know if the patient needs a rest?"


    Everyone left, leaving only Tony and rod in the room.


    Looking at the persistence in each other''s eyes, Tony finally got up:


    "Well, call me if you have something."


    But no one knew that the moment Tony left, when the white door was closed.


    In the room, rod, who could no longer stretch, clenched his fist.


    He bit his lower lip and looked up at the white ceiling, but his tears couldn''t help flowing down.


    He knew what the accident meant to him. He was no longer a mecha driver or Colonel rod. The army would not let a disabled person drive a mecha, nor would it take in a waste in the army.


    In other words, the accident abandoned not only his lower body, but also his lower life.


    Including their own career, beliefs, and the goal they have been striving for over the years.


    Rod, who lost all his thoughts, thought of the film directed by Robert - the true story of Forrest Gump and the officer of the military family. He was the same as himself.


    No, he''s better than himself. At least he has legs, and he probably can''t even control his urine.


    White sheets, empty room, is a man''s desperate and helpless depressed cry.


    Outside, there was a group of silent superheroes. Tony, who finally left, looked at the group in front of him. His eyes flashed irritable: "is there really no other way?"


    Strange thought, and a hesitation flashed in his eyes:


    "Why don''t I see if there are other possibilities?"


    Looking at strange''s serious look, rocky flashed a hint of ponder in his eyes:


    "You seem very concerned about it?"


    In fact, in the ward, rocky wanted to ask this question. Everyone didn''t apologize to strange. Why did strange apologize to Colonel rod?


    Colonel rod''s injury was an accident?


    Or do you have to make sacrifices for better results?


    If it''s the former, it''s easy to say, but if it''s the latter?


    Then it''s interesting.


    Facing Rocky''s problem, strange frowned slightly. He gave rocky a cold look: "Rocky, what do you mean?"


    Rocky''s mouth crossed his trademark bad smile. He waved his hand: "nothing, when I didn''t say anything."


    Sol stood up. Strange is his friend and rocky is his brother. Helpless, he can only say: "strange, don''t care. My brother is like this. Sometimes he just says some crazy words."


    Strange ignored Sol''s explanation. He nodded perfunctorily and comforted Tony: "don''t worry too much. Rod is a strong man. He will get better."


    Everyone present thought that malkis attacked rod, but in fact?


    In addition to the dead malkis, Colonel rod and Tony, strange knew that malkis was really going to attack Tony!


    Why did you become rod?


    Because rod pushed Tony away at a critical moment.


    In addition, there is one thing that cannot be explained.


    That''s why Colonel rod pushed Tony away?


    At the speed of malekis, no superhero can react, not even the God from Asgard.


    So, as Rocky guessed, there is a secret buried in strange''s heart that only he knows!


    It is also because of this secret that strange is full of apology to rod.


    At the same time, the ancient mage suddenly appeared in the temple of New York. His eyes were a little black. The black smoke around him gave people a very evil and dangerous feeling.


    It seems that if you get a little closer, you will be pulled into the abyss!


    If strange appears here, she will realize that the power rising around the ancient Mage at the moment is the dark dimensional power that she has always forbidden them to contact.


    However, with the black smoke rising, even when Gu Yi mage''s eyes were completely dyed black.


    With a violent drink, an amazing force burst out from the thin body of an ancient Mage: "domam, take your dirty claws away from the world!"


    "Boom!"


    The black fog dispersed, and everything returned to its original appearance again. It seemed as if you could hear an angry roar.


    Supreme mage, the earth''s most important and only defense against multi-dimensional invasion, Gu Yi mage drove the enemy out of the world again, but her slightly trembling body indicates that it is not easy for her.


    Looking down at the trembling palm, master Gu Yi murmured in a low voice in a voice that only she could hear:


    "I don''t have much time left."
