Chapter 103: A Grand Occasion!
However when Bruce saw their abilities, he instantly lost interest.
Whether it be the War Machine or Falcon, the abilities they had were mediocre at best. Although they had some unique abilities, they were far from what Bruce wanted.
Rodi for example, though he was the owner of the War Machine, his armor was only a modified version of the Mark Armor. A much worse version of the armor series than that of Iron Mans.
As for Falcon, his most outstanding ability was flying, and yet he had to rely on his armor if he wanted to fly. It was needless to say that Bruce didnt need his ability at all.
With that said, Bruce chose not to download their abilities.
Wow, that Bruce? Ive known your name for a long time, Sam, also known as the Falcon, said.
He got along well with Captain America, and he had mentioned Bruce to Sam before when they were training.
Thank you. Bruce said, with a smile on his face.
While Bruces smile seemed friendly, it was also not too friendly, instead opting to remain cordial at most.
Then, they left the area.
They all wanted to rest as they were too tired, and wanted to prepare for the gathering.
After Bruce returned to his room, he took a look around his surroundings, and in the next moment, he disappeared. He was a lot faster than before, and it was needless to say that now, no one could detect him.
Shortly after disappearing from his room, he came to a lab.
Inside the lab, Dr. Banner and Iron Man were busy with their work, while Lokis scepter was cast aside. The scepter was occasionally releasing a red light, which was the Scarlet Witchs magic abilitys effect on the Mind Gem.

This ability was what laid the foundation for the birth of Vision, which would happen in the not so distant future.
Iron Man and Banner were both extremely smart people, and yet they were both seriously calculating something in front of the system.
After seeing this scene, Bruce felt completely relieved.
All of his schemes and plans were proceeding smoothly, and after a while, Bruce left the place.
During this next period of time, Bruce didnt need to do anything. The natural development of the plot would lead to Ultrons birth, which was what would lead to the birth of Vision.
When that time came, Bruce would have also completed his mission, without any difficulties or doing anything too extreme.
After returning to his room, Bruce also decided to rest up and prepare. Until night fell, and the Black Widow came to find him.
The banquet is about to begin, lets go. Bruce nodded to that and walked out with her.
Captain America, Thor, Falcon, War Machine and the others were all here. Including Iron Man and Banner, who while present, didnt seem to be in a good state.
It seemed that their calculation process wasnt going too smoothly, but as this was exactly what Bruce wanted, he smiled internally.
After a while, everyone drove outside of the Avengers Base, and came to a tall building, where neither colorful lights nor noisy music were present.
Instead, there were hundreds of people inside a huge room, consisting of nearly all of the top members of the organization.
When the Avengers appeared, the sounds of talking grew louder and louder.
Ill pay the bill today, so I hope everybody has a good time tonight, Iron Man said.
It was widely known that Iron Man was in charge of an Armed Industry Group, as well as being one of the Avengers, so no amount of food or drinks would dampen his wealth, and everyone could just enjoy themselves.
In the beginning, everyone just talked amongst their own social groups. They all belonged to one or the other, holding wine glasses and talking about some matters they found interesting.
Bruce stood near the counter with a calm expression on his face. He couldnt enjoy himself in such a noisy place, and opted to stay alone.
After a long time passed, and most of the people had left, only the Avengers and a few other people were left.
It seems that someone doesnt enjoy such events, Black Widow said, standing next to Bruce.
She had really dressed up for the occasion, making her even more stunning than she usually was.
Most people couldnt resist her, not to mention when she dressed up, and yet Bruce steadily looked forward.
He took a sip of his wine and said, how could you say that? I love this kind of occasion.
A small smile appeared on Black Widows face upon hearing Bruces words. She then came close to Bruce with a trace of seductiveness in her eyes.
Bruce felt something strangely soft going alongside his arm, time and time again. It was a scene hard to resist, especially when the proactive one was a woman like Black Widow.
Natasha Romanoff, do you think something will happen tonight? Nonetheless, Bruce wasnt affected and his mind was as sharp as ever.
I think tonight is a wonderful night. What do you think? Natasha took her glass, revealing her snow-white neck and attractive body to Bruce.
Having nothing else to say, Bruce looked ahead and said, lets go have a drink.
Natasha turned her head to where Bruce was looking at, and saw the Avengers sitting together. In between them, was Thors hammer, Mjolnir.
Bruce couldnt help but laugh in his heart upon seeing such a scene.
Natasha on the other hand, felt somewhat dissatisfied, but she still followed Bruce who headed straight there.
No,no,no. Thor, you must be joking, Hawkeye said, staring at Mjolnir that was on the center of the table with a smile.
Its absolutely true. You can have a try too if you want, Thor said, looking so complacent that he leaned back on the sofa to prove his point.
Are you saying that only if youre qualified will you be able to lift Mjolnir? Absolute nonsense.
The others were also of the same opinion, and decided to give it a go. They were all gathered here together talking about Mjolnir, as they didnt believe Thor when he said that only he was able to lift it.
If all of you dont believe it, you can have a go at it and try. Thor was very confident in that fact, shown by his total complacency.
The hammer was made by Odin, the master of Asgard, who had terrifying power on the level of a God, and so were its rules.
If we lift it up, can we rule the Aesir? Iron Man quipped.
Yet despite the obvious joke, Thor took a sip of his wine and said, of course, and furthermore, you can use everything you have in your attempt to lift it.
Subsequently, Hawkeye, Falcon, Iron Man, and War Machine used their abilities at the same time.
Each of them had their own unique and powerful abilities, yet no matter how hard they tried, they just couldnt lift it up. Even Banner gave it a go after transforming into the Hulk, to no avail.
In order to lift Mjolnir, strength wasnt the only requirement, which was why Thor was so confident.
Captain, why dont you give it a shot? Thor said, using a relaxed tone.
The Captain smiled and held Mjolnir with both of his hands. Yet in the next moment, Thors face drastically changed.
He saw Mjolnir moving a little, only to remain still after. Only after seeing that, could Thor finally let out a sigh of relief.
If Mjolnir had truly been lifted up after all of his provoking words, Thor would feel extremely ashamed.
Is there some mechanism in place, or is Thors fingerprint necessary to lift it? Iron Man said, followed by everyone nodding in succession.
However Thor merely held his glass of wine, and said, no, Its just because you arent qualified.
What are you doing here? At this moment, Bruce suddenly appeared, and asked while looking at the crowd on purpose.
Thor says that no one can lift up Mjolnir besides himself. Bruce you havent tried yet, you want to give it a go? Banner said.
He naturally didnt know that Bruce had already once lifted Mjolnir.
Well, okay. Bruce said.
After hearing that Bruce agreed, Thors face took another drastic change, and he almost stood up instantly.
