Ficool

Chapter 159 - 159

Sir, the diary has been updated."

Inside the luxurious Marbury Villa.

Tony Stark, who was engrossed in researching armor upgrades, heard Jarvis's prompt.

The Playboy temporarily stopped his work and immediately went to the diary, where he indeed found new content.

Tony glanced at it and immediately showed a look of surprise.

Captain Marvel actually returned to Earth?

Almost instantly, Tony reacted.

It seemed that Nick Fury had adopted his suggestion and called Captain Marvel back.

The purpose, without a doubt, was to solve the Skrulls' problem.

That Nick Fury wasn't beyond salvation!

Tony couldn't help but nod, silently complaining in his heart.

Even with the Playboy's super-high IQ, he had no good solution when facing a tricky problem like the Skrulls.

Currently, the only one he could count on was Captain Marvel.

The diary highly praised Captain Marvel, and Zhou Cheng also held a highly favorable attitude towards Captain Marvel.

He hoped Captain Marvel would truly be reliable and solve this tricky problem.

Tony silently prayed in his heart.

"Only returning during the Infinity War?"

Nick Fury, in front of another diary, felt somewhat speechless, and at the same time, a little bit annoyed.

Infinity War, wasn't that when Purple Sweet Potato snapped his fingers, erasing half of the Universe's life and also killing half of Earth's population?

Would Danvers only return to Earth when something of that magnitude happened?

Before this, she had truly never returned!

It seemed that deep down, Earth truly wasn't that important to Danvers.

This was undoubtedly not a good thing for Nick Fury.

However, there was nothing Nick Fury could do about such a matter.

As for Nick Fury himself, he indeed wanted to deepen the bond between Captain Marvel and Earth.

Nick Fury even thought about whether to arrange for Colonel Rhodes and Captain Marvel to meet and see what might happen.

After all, in another Universe, Colonel Rhodes and Danvers were a couple, weren't they?

However, in reality, Captain Marvel simply didn't give Nick Fury this opportunity; she couldn't stay on Earth at all.

Just like this time.

Even when her best friend was sick, she only stayed for a week before leaving, which greatly frustrated Nick Fury.

Otherwise, such a powerful being could completely serve as a solid backing for Earth.

Wait a minute.

Danvers's strength was not limited to this!

The diary clearly stated that if Danvers "activated dual stars," she could reach the level of Planet busting.

What did Planet busting mean?

Didn't it mean destroying a Planet?

So, Danvers's true strength was being able to easily destroy a Planet?

Hiss!

Even Nick Fury, who was very familiar with Captain Marvel, almost couldn't help but gasp.

What was being talked about here was destroying a Planet!

In Nick Fury's view, this was comparable to Dormammu's consumption of Planets.

In other words, Captain Marvel actually had dimension demon god-level strength?

However, what exactly was "activating dual stars"?

This was something Nick Fury couldn't figure out no matter how much he thought about it.

[I almost forgot, this World has no Mutants, so it's really hard to say if Captain Marvel has a dual-star state.]

[But no matter what, even a Captain Marvel who can't activate dual stars is almost a sweeping-level presence at this stage.]

[Especially for characters like Loki and the Chitauri.]

[So, with Captain Marvel on Earth, the New York Battle is simply a joke!]

[The Avengers are completely useless; she alone can fly into the wormhole and destroy the Chitauri's mothership!]

[And those Chitauri who have already flown into New York through the portal will go offline along with the destruction of the mothership.]

[In other words, the entire New York Battle might end in a few minutes; it's that easy and pleasant!]

Mutant!

Tony Stark's eyebrow twitched slightly.

Mutant again.

The diary had mentioned this group more than once.

Although this group did not exist in the Playboy's Universe, this did not mean Tony would not pay attention.

Because all signs indicated that the future World was actually an era of the Multiverse!

Whether it was the corrupted Scarlet Witch, or Infinite Ultron, or the Observer who transcended the Multiverse.

Or, the TVA that ruled time and also traversed the Multiverse!

All were beings that could travel back and forth in the Multiverse!

And this was just a casual spoiler from the diary.

Who knew if, besides these beings spoiled by the diary, there were other powerful individuals or formidable organizations that could travel through the Universe?

What if, by some chance, Mutants from other Universes invaded his own Universe?

Or, what if his Tony reached the level of being able to travel through the Multiverse in the future, thus exploring other Universes and encountering Mutants there?

These were all uncertain things!

So, Tony was also relatively concerned about the Mutant group.

However, it was a pity that because Mutants did not exist in his Universe, the information about Mutants spoiled by Zhou Cheng was indeed pitifully scarce.

Of course, even so.

Considering the special attributes of Mutants, even if one thought with their thigh, they would know that this was a very powerful and abnormal group.

Just like this instance mentioned in the diary.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Mutants must have played an extremely important role in Captain Marvel's dual-star state.

The fact that they could be involved in something concerning a being of Captain Marvel's caliber made it even more evident.

However, what exactly was the "inside story," the diary didn't mention, so the Playboy naturally couldn't guess.

He didn't dwell on it too much but refocused his attention on the diary.

His face immediately showed a look of confusion.

Captain Marvel flying into the wormhole to destroy the Chitauri mothership was no problem.

Given Captain Marvel's strength as revealed by the diary, these were just minor issues.

But there was one thing Tony truly couldn't understand.

Why would the Chitauri in New York city go offline if the mothership was destroyed?

According to the diary's tone, "offline" here most likely meant death.

But what did the life and death of those Chitauri have to do with the mothership?

Why would they go offline if the mothership was destroyed?

This made no sense at all!

A living being and the survival of a spaceship were completely unrelated matters!

After all, those Chitauri weren't on the mothership; they were in New York, separated by a portal!

So what exactly was going on?

Were those Chitauri some kind of puppet people, similar to Iron Man Armor?

And their central control system was on the mothership?

So if the mothership was blown up, those puppet people would go offline?

Did "offline" in the diary really mean offline and not death?

Was that it?

Or, did these Chitauri possess a hive mind consciousness?

All Chitauri were controlled by the "King of the Chitauri" on the mothership, and as long as that King of the Chitauri was eliminated, they would all be finished?

Tony Stark began to fall into deep thought.

But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't come to a definitive conclusion.

What exactly was going on, only Zhou Cheng, the Master of that diary, would know.

[In this way, the original Avengers wouldn't have to be beaten so badly and be in such a sorry state by the Chitauri.]

[Of course, more importantly, Iron Man wouldn't have to risk his life carrying a nuclear bomb into the wormhole.]

[Speaking of which, it was really a close call back then. If Black Widow's portal had closed a minute earlier, Iron Man wouldn't have made it back, would he?]

[He would definitely have been blown to smithereens along with the Chitauri fleet.]

[So, it's completely understandable that Stark developed anxiety and had nightmares because of the New York Battle.]

[He was truly traumatized.]

So this was the truth behind that nuclear bomb in New York?

Tony Stark's face immediately showed a look of sudden realization, and at the same time, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The diary had spoiled long ago that the U.S. government launched a nuclear bomb during the New York Battle.

Both Tony and the other diary holders were worried that even if the New York Battle was won, New York would likely be destroyed in the future.

After all, the power of a nuclear bomb was too great!

If it exploded in New York, the entire city would have no chance of survival.

But fortunately, what everyone worried about did not happen.

It turned out that that nuclear bomb did not explode in New York.

Instead, his Tony carried it into the portal!

So what was on the other side of the portal?

Tony had already analyzed it long ago, and this spoiler also confirmed it: it was indeed the Chitauri fleet!

Awesome!

After all that, that nuclear bomb was directly sent into the Chitauri's lair; this operation was truly awesome.

He believed it would be enough to give those Chitauri a hard time.

Only…

The Playboy then showed a look of confusion again.

Using a nuclear bomb to attack the Chitauri was perfectly fine, but why did he have to carry it himself?

Missiles had guidance systems, couldn't they just be launched directly into the portal?

Chitauri!

Instantly, Tony immediately reacted.

The portal was an important passage for transporting the Chitauri army, and the Chitauri couldn't possibly ignore it.

Plus, it was an alien civilization; intercepting missiles should be a basic operation.

So, directly launching nuclear bombs into the portal probably wouldn't work.

Then the problem arose.

If that was the case, why did the government still launch nuclear bombs? Didn't they know this?

Tony's face immediately darkened slightly; how could he not understand what was going on?

Those idiots must have already given up on New York!

Truly their usual demeanor!

So, carrying the nuclear bomb must have been his Tony's spontaneous decision at the critical moment after the nuclear bomb was launched.

It was his Tony, alone, who saved New York!

As for his anxiety, having nightmares at night?

How could such a thing be possible!

His Tony wouldn't be like that.

It must be that Zhou Cheng, habitually belittling his Tony again.

"Is this really Stark?"

Nick Fury, on the other side of the diary, showed a slight look of surprise.

It had to be said that the Playboy's actions were indeed beyond Nick Fury's expectations.

That was a nuclear bomb!

Carrying a nuclear bomb alone into the portal was completely suicidal!

Leaving aside that the other side of the portal was the Chitauri army, Stark doing this was equivalent to a single person deeply infiltrating the enemy's main camp, facing countless alien fleets alone.

It was possible that he would die before the Chitauri mothership was blown up.

Even if his actions succeeded, he still faced the risk of being blown up by the nuclear bomb as well.

Didn't the diary also say that Iron Man was indeed almost killed by the nuclear bomb?

How could Tony's IQ not think of such a thing? So, at that time, Tony Stark must have been doing this with the resolve to die.

He had made preparations to sacrifice himself to save New York!

Considering Tony's usual arrogant and extremely self-centered personality, Nick Fury could only say that this matter truly surprised him.

So, this was the true face beneath Tony's proud demeanor?

Besides that.

Iron Man carrying a nuclear bomb actually destroyed the Chitauri mothership, which also surprised Nick Fury.

That was an alien civilization; could an iron lump carrying a nuclear bomb take it out?

Why did this alien civilization feel so low-level?

Normally, shouldn't Iron Man be taken out by the mothership's firepower the moment he appeared?

So the mothership couldn't even deal with one Iron Man?

Alright, even if the mothership couldn't deal with Iron Man, but the nuclear bomb wasn't intercepted either?

For a moment, Nick Fury felt truly confused.

[But how to put it, fortune is intertwined with misfortune.]

[If it weren't for Stark's anxiety, which made him extremely reliant on his armor, would he have frantically produced armor?]

[If Stark hadn't frantically produced armor and secretly created an Iron Legion, how could he have dealt with Kilian's Extremis Warriors?]

[Don't even mention Kilian's many Extremis Warriors; I remember Kilian alone, with his bare hands, destroyed several of Stark's armors!]

[Haha, so it really was thanks to Stark's anxiety.]

[Otherwise, how would Iron Man still be alive?]

[The entire U.S. would probably be living under the fear of the Mandarin.]

"Kilian."

Tony's face showed a look of confusion, and he subconsciously softly uttered the name.

How did this name sound so familiar?

However, when Tony tried to recall carefully, he found that he couldn't remember who this person was at all.

With Tony's super-high IQ, there were only two possibilities for such a situation.

One, he had never met Kilian, only occasionally heard others mention him.

Two, he had met Kilian, but the person was an insignificant small fry, so he never paid attention to him.
