Ethan knew that Steve was talking about his good friend, Bucky, now code-named Winter Soldier, and his full name was James Buchanan Barnes.

In the original plot, the Winter Soldier was controlled by Hydra and even attacked Nick Fury. This time he also launched an attack, but Nick Fury had already made perfect preparations. Not only did he not suffer any injuries, he even caught Bucky in turn.

Of course, he did not know the identity of the Winter Soldier at that time. He only obtained information based on various investigations. Hydra had a very strong soldier who was suspected to have been strengthened. This man was involved in many assassinations and inexplicable deaths, so successfully arresting this man could be regarded as a hidden danger.

The only surprise was that this man was actually Captain America's old comrade-in-arms and good friend, which made many of his original arrangements useless. He could only lock the Winter Soldier first and find a way to restore him to normal - as long as he resumes normalcy, with Steve's relationship with him, this transformation soldier code-named Winter Soldier will also be his support.

Because Hydra used rude brainwashing methods and were not mysterious at all, Nick did not think of asking Ethan for help at first. Of course, there was also the idea of ​​"Don't ask that mage to take action on such a small matter."

Steve didn't know that he just felt that Ethan could easily remove the mental control of Hawkeye and Selvig and others, and it shouldn't be difficult to cure Bucky.

He was right. After rushing to the secret base where Bucky was imprisoned, Ethan just checked it for a few random times and gave his own answer.

"Not a hassle, I can handle it."

Hydra's brainwashing method is to suppress a person's original personality and then cover it with a blank new personality to control the body with a new personality that can be controlled by itself.

This new personality cannot completely suppress the old personality, but there is a very simple way to force the original personality to actively retreat to the depths of the spirit and give up the control of the body.

That's pain!

People have a self-protection mechanism. When they instinctively feel that they cannot continue to suffer more pain, this mechanism will be activated, corresponding to the spiritual or personality level, which is to cut off the connection with the body and no longer ‘feel’ these crazy pains.

At the same time, when torture the other party, they actively design something similar to the password, which makes the original personality develop a "fixed thinking". When these passwords are used, the other party will torture themselves, and then they will actively return to give up control.

But this so-called control method has many hidden dangers, such as when a true personality wants to ‘come out’, they have no way to stop it.

This is also the original plot that Bucky gradually recovered his memory and self. If no one got the "start password", he could continue to be normal. Over time, the temporary new personality may completely disappear. Even if he got the password, it would be useless.

Ethan didn't explain much. In his eyes, this hypnosis method is very rough and troublesome, and it is a waste of time. The hidden danger is very huge, which is really not worth mentioning.

And at the level of mental power, a chaotic and disorderly spiritual force envelops the mental power of Ba's basic body - the outermost layer of energy is not an external force, but also Bucky's own mental power. This is a part of the isolation layer that is actively divided for self-protection and is also the soil for the birth of a new personality.

So if you want to solve Bucky's problem, the simplest and most rude way is to eliminate this part of your mental power; the more troublesome thing is to help Bucky's own mental power absorb this part of your mental power more quickly.

"No matter which one you choose, there are no hidden dangers or side effects. It's just that the first method will make Bucky feel almost in a while."

This is not a big deal. After a good rest for a while, this part of the lost mental power can be restored a lot, and you will feel that you have returned to normal in your personal physical sense.

The remaining slight differences have no effect on most people.

"Please choose the first one!"

Steve couldn't understand so many messy things, and he just felt that the first one was effective quickly, and he always felt that this so-called divided mental power was not a good thing. Even if Ethan clearly stated that it was Bucky's own mental power, he would not have any problems and he felt worried.

I even feel that the Winter Soldier has done so many bad things, and it is all this thing that has done.

Strictly speaking, it's OK for him to think so, but unfortunately, Bucky won't forget everything he's done before just because he returns to normal.

As Ethan said, it was originally his mental power. Even if he developed a new personality, he used the same body. Whether it was memory or anything, he was the same set of "storage devices". He would not become a passerby who knew nothing because he lost control of his body. He could witness everything he did throughout the journey like a passenger.

"Okay, no matter what, I'll cut off this mental force first."

This kind of mental separation is not so easy. If you want to ensure safety and success at one time, you need to do some preparations. Ethan spent several hours laying out the venue, building a large number of magic circles in Nick Fury and Steve's eyes, which were about to turn into a mosquito coil, and there were also various mysterious symbols.

With such a complex magic array, the final effect is only to ensure the smooth implementation of this operation.

After he made so much preparation, the cleaning was completed in just five minutes.

With the assistance of the magic circle, everyone saw Bucky's spiritual body half drawn out, and then they also saw how Ethan wrapped Bucky's spiritual body, and the layer of spiritual energy with very obvious differences was cut off.

But when Ethan announced the completion so quickly, the two of them were still a little dazed.

"It's over? That's it?"

"What else do you want? I made a lot of magic runes and recited spells for several hours, then an earthquake, tsunami, volcano eruption, accompanied by thick dark clouds and continuous thunderfalls, and finally scrapped your base before solving the problem?"

Ethan patted Nick Fury on the shoulder: "If you want to see this kind of scene, I can satisfy your wish, but don't ask me to compensate me for any losses afterwards."

"It's better to be exempted, that's great."

Nick doesn't care about any loss or loss, but this is his personal secret base, and he doesn't want his secret to be known by more people.

Steve didn't care about these messes. After Ethan announced that the problem had been resolved, he rushed over to check Bucky's situation.

During this period, Bucky has been frozen in a special facility at low temperature (from Hydra), so he has been arrested for a while and there has been no dialogue between the two sides. Until now, the two people have actually met.

"Steve?"

Bucky had already woken up by this torture. He felt that he was not very energetic, but he felt a sense of relief all over his body, as if some heavy burden had been removed. What surprised him even more was that he saw his friend Steve Rogers as soon as he opened his eyes.

He was not surprised by this. As Ethan said before, although Bucky lost control of his body, he knew everything he should know. He received a lot of information when he was in operation as a winter soldier. Bucky also had this information. He knew Steve's current situation, and many of the details might not have even been paid attention to.

I have mastered these information to better deal with Captain America, but I will definitely not be able to use it now.

Without seeing what the couple said there, Ethan and Nick both quit and talk about other things by the way.

"What are your arrangements next?"

"Go to England and take Selvig and the others."

For Ethan, where to go is just a spell, but this time he has to take many people to Asgard. He doesn't want to run back and forth one after another, so he gathers everyone together first and then sends it there in one breath.

In addition, he was not ready to continue to stay in this world. All the things that should be handled have been done. Prince Eugen is conducting a test. He will take over the ship in a while - a regular warship sea trial lasts for a year, and the test content includes various details.

But Ethan doesn't need Tony to help him test it in such detail, especially Tony has already tinkered with a nano-maintenance robot, which means that even if he returns to his side, the warship can be repaired and adjusted by itself if it is in trouble.

This test only requires that Prince Eugen can be used normally and most of the equipment can be operated normally. Now it seems that there are no serious design defects.

Even if there is a problem, there will be some details. At most, a certain system or device does not achieve theoretical results. Even if it simply does not work, some corrections can be made based on various adjustment plans given by Tony.

What's more... After Tony realized that Ethan's time flow rate was not the same as his world, he began to think about going out with Ethan again.

Of course, the reason he found was very reasonable: he could better help Ethan conduct a detailed test of Prince Eugen, ensuring that he handed over a perfect warship, rather than a defective product with a lot of problems.

"So after Thor's succession ceremony, you'll leave again?"

"Yes."

There is indeed nothing wrong here. He stayed for so long and was waiting for the new ship to be launched. He didn't do the test here anymore. What else would he do if he didn't leave?
Chapter completed!
