Juice, please. Watermelon juice is fine for me."
"Luo Di, aren't you going to get it?"
Daisy called out.
Luo Di threw a pillow at Daisy's face, then got up and went to the refrigerator to get drinks.
"Here, your happy water."
Luo Di tossed the cola to Daisy, then turned and sat beside Gwen, unscrewing the cap of the watermelon juice bottle and handing it to her.
"Thanks!"
Daisy said with a giggle.
She looked carefree.
Ding~!
Hearing the sound, Gwen glanced at the phone next to her.
It seemed she saw something that surprised her, so she picked up the phone to look closely.
"What's wrong?"
Luo Di asked her.
"Something big happened!"
Gwen turned to him and said, handing him the phone.
"It turns out there was a follow-up to yesterday's battle in Korea. This time it's Sokovia."
Gwen said.
"Sokovia? Where is that?"
Daisy curiously leaned over, grabbing Luo Di to look at the phone screen.
On the screen was a news push notification.
The content roughly stated that the Avengers had a major battle with enemies in Sokovia, the entire city was lifted tens of thousands of meters into the sky, and finally the city was shattered, with the Avengers once again achieving victory!
The news was full of praise and compliments for the Avengers.
There was no mention of words like casualties or losses.
But anyone who wasn't a fool could imagine how many casualties and losses would result from a city being blown up!
Regarding casualties, the Avengers must have evacuated people before destroying the city.
However, no one could claim to achieve 100% perfection in such matters; there would definitely be one or two, or even more, who were missed.
And these people…
Undoubtedly, they were blown to pieces along with Sokovia!
But the news didn't mention these things.
As for losses, an entire city was gone.
Wasn't this loss great enough?
Although Sokovia was very backward and its conditions were very poor.
But for the local people, that was the only place they could live.
Now their home was gone.
It was hard to imagine what they would do in the future.
"I called Natasha yesterday and no one answered. I thought the matter was resolved, but I didn't expect it to be like this!"
Gwen looked at the news on her phone, her expression quite solemn.
Luo Di, however, knew about Ultron and this series of events.
But he never thought of interfering.
He was not a Superhero; he had no obligation to sacrifice anything for others.
Moreover;
The Avengers would solve the problem.
The outcome was not as bad as Gwen imagined.
There were casualties, but not many!
Because the evacuation work was assisted by the Helicarrier that Fury brought, it proceeded very smoothly.
As for the city that was destroyed?
Isn't there Iron Man Tony, the richest man in the World, here?
Tony would handle all subsequent post-war reconstruction and various aids.
Generally, these matters of funding.
They were all completed by Tony; he was also the Avengers' financial provider.
Even the Avengers' newly built Base was funded and built by Tony alone.

Chapter 103: Five Newcomers! Daisy Falls! Don't Tell Gwen Yet? [Seeking Subscription]
Avengers Base.
This vast open space located in the suburbs of Free City was surrounded by lush natural scenery as far as the eye could see.
And in the middle of this greenery, a newly built complex of buildings was situated.
This would be the Avengers' new Base from now on.
At this moment;
Inside the Base, the Avengers, who had just returned from Sokovia, were also watching the news reports on television.
And in a single-person sofa in the corner of the lounge.
Wanda, looking dejected and having just cried, was hugging her legs, grieving silently by herself.
The Avengers around her also didn't know how to comfort her.
After all, in this battle, everyone else was fine, but only Wanda's brother, Pietro, died at the hands of Ultron's robots.
And it was for the sake of saving Hawkeye Barton!
This also made Barton very sad.
That young man, the last time they met, they were enemies.
But how long had it been?
The other party died to save him.
Human life was really too fragile!
Barton could understand Wanda's grief, but at this moment he knew very well that Wanda did not want to be comforted by others.
She just wanted to be alone!
...
One day later.
Still at the Avengers Base.
After a day of grief and calm, Wanda had seemingly emerged from her sorrow.
At this time, Natasha knocked on her door, telling her there was an important announcement that required her presence.
Soon, Wanda followed Natasha into a large hall.
Here she met several unfamiliar strangers.
Two men, one woman.
The woman's dressing style looked quite similar to hers; she also wore a leather jacket.
However, Wanda preferred red, while this person wore black.
The two exchanged a tacit glance, nodding to each other as a greeting.
At this moment;
The hall door opened again.
The familiar Avengers entered.
Captain America Steve Rogers!
Iron Man Tony Stark!
05 Thor!
And Hawkeye Barton!
Seeing Barton, Wanda thought of her brother Pietro again.
A hint of sad grief inevitably showed in her eyes.
The first person Barton noticed upon entering was Wanda. When he saw that hint of grief in Wanda's eyes, he knew that Wanda had not fully emerged from her sorrow.
"Everyone! Welcome to the Avengers Base!"
Steve looked at the people before him, as if seeing himself when he had just enlisted in the army.
His expression was serious, and his tone was extremely earnest as he said: "I believe you all already know the reason you were invited here, so I will ask one last time, are you ready to join the Avengers?"
At this moment, everyone present had firm eyes; no one flinched, and no one was joking around.
Even Jessica, who was usually a bit unreliable, was influenced by the atmosphere at the scene and, uncharacteristically, showed a serious demeanor.
Speaking of which, the reason Jessica appeared here was partly due to Luke Cage's recommendation, and partly due to Natasha's strong invitation!
Yes, she was convinced by Natasha!
This woman was so eloquent that even Jessica, who initially had no intention of joining, couldn't help but be persuaded by her.
As for Luke Cage?
After his last contact with the Avengers, he himself had little resistance to joining them.
This time, upon receiving Natasha's invitation again, he, who had never thought of refusing, even introduced his friend Jessica to join as well!
In Luke Cage's words, by joining the Avengers, they could not only contribute their own strength to this World but also use the Avengers' influence to find Matt.
Yes;
They hadn't found Matt at Fisk Tower that day.
And Kingpin was already dead.
They had no choice; they had completely lost all clues to Matt.
Just as the two were troubled about how to proceed, Natasha contacted Luke Cage, which made Luke Cage realize that they could totally use the Avengers' influence to find people!
You know;
The Avengers were supported by a Super rich man like Iron Man Tony as their financier.
They even had their own satellites!
Under other circumstances, the Avengers might not necessarily help them find people.
But what if they themselves joined the Avengers and became a part of it?
In fact, Jessica being persuaded also had this reason.
Of course!
More importantly, it was Natasha's words, "Do you want to change your current life? Do you want to come out of the Shadow of the past?" It was this sentence that completely convinced Jessica.
