Chapter 21: A Young Girl's Dream! Is Little Wanda Facing Assassination?

Night fell...

Perhaps it was because Su Ye had beaten the criminals in the city so severely yesterday, it had given quite a few criminals psychological trauma, serving as a deterrent.

As a result, criminal incidents tonight were several times fewer than yesterday.

The reason for all of this was mainly Su Ye's style of operation.

He was not quite like other Superheroes...

Typical Superheroes were bound by the strict constraints of the law.

Unless they encountered a crime in progress, they could take the initiative to bring the bad guys to justice!

However, when encountering a Supervillain like Kingpin who was good at disguising himself, they had to first collect evidence of his crimes and then go over to lecture him.

Only after confirming that negotiations were fruitless would they resort to force to solve the problem.

This back-and-forth would waste a lot of time, seriously affecting the efficiency of executing justice.

But Su Ye was different...

He didn't need any reason to fight evil!

For example...

When he was teaching Kingpin a lesson, he started with an old-school approach right away.

Su Ye would use Kingpin's right leg stepping into the office first as an excuse to label him an extremist right-winger.

He would define him as a follower of a certain leader with serious anti-social tendencies, and then beat him up.

He was powerful and his methods were cruel.

He was overbearing, unreasonable, and had no morals to speak of.

This kind of Superhero was even more ruthless than the villains and was the person who gave the villains the most headaches.

They ignored the law and followed their own self-imposed principles.

The most important point was that these lunatics would actually kill!

Because of this...

Even a Supervillain like Kingpin would subconsciously back down when facing Su Ye.

As for other low-level criminals, just hearing Su Ye's name was enough to scare them so much that they wouldn't dare to go out.

After patrolling the city once more...

Su Ye sighed regretfully...

The sandbag babies had learned their lesson...

It seemed that for a long time to come, the criminals in the city wouldn't dare to come out and do evil.

"Senior, you did such a great job!" Zoe praised excitedly over the voice chat.

If this city could be as safe as it was tonight every day, then this place would simply be heaven, in the literal sense.

And all of this was thanks to her Senior!

She was just so lucky to be able to assist this great hero!

"Sigh..."

"Let's leave it at that for tonight, get some rest early."

Su Ye sighed with a heavy heart, ignoring Zoe's flattery.

Young heroes were always full of passion and craved glory.

Alas...

How lonely it was to be invincible...

He only needed to make a slight move, and it was already the limit of this World.

"Senior, won't you come to my place for a while?" Zoe thought about it, then gathered her courage to extend the invitation.

Although she had never experienced this kind of thing, and hadn't even had any male friends growing up, she had a long-term vision...

A prominent figure like Su Ye would always be a hot topic in girls' circles.

Zoe had to seriously consider if this was the only opportunity in her life.

If she missed this chance, the two of them might just become strangers...

After all...

She was just an ordinary person...

"Is that really appropriate? Are you an adult yet?" Su Ye understood Zoe's hint, his tone carrying a touch of hesitation.

This was too fast...

That's not how it works where I'm from...

Besides, Zoe looked too young; he would really feel guilty...

"Although we're in different grades, we're the same age!" Zoe complained in annoyance.

"Really?" Su Ye's tone carried a hint of skepticism.

"Rea—lly—!" Zoe was almost speechless.

She was a bit petite, but she was an adult nonetheless!

"I'll go home first, and then I'll come to your place later." Su Ye thought for a moment and finally gave his answer.

Eighteen years...

He hadn't even held a girl's hand...

Facing Zoe's invitation to duo, he really couldn't hold back!

The girl had been so direct, was he supposed to refuse?

"Okay..."

Zoe's voice was clearly trembling slightly.

She had never experienced this kind of thing, and it was her first time too.

She couldn't imagine what was going to happen next at all.

...

Su Ye's Villa by the sea...

Su Ye, in his golden battle suit, slowly descended from the night sky.

Before he even landed in the courtyard, he discovered Little Wanda and Hill sitting on the lawn, chatting.

They had spread out a picnic blanket, which was filled with all kinds of desserts, most of which were things children liked to eat.

"Hi, good evening."

"Would you like to eat something?"

Seeing Su Ye's figure, Hill did not show any expression of fear; instead, she greeted him warmly.

Su Ye, however, ignored her and turned to ask Little Wanda.

"Wanda, what's going on here?" Su Ye walked up to Wanda and asked with concern.

"Sister Hill saw that I was cooped up in the room all day, so she invited me out to sit for a while."

"She even prepared a lot of snacks and kept me company."

"She's a very nice person."

Wanda said truthfully.

Su Ye remained silent after hearing this.

He knew Hill's identity; she was the Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

She was a command-type Agent, unlike Black Widow.

But her rash approach to Wanda was a dangerous signal.

Hill sensed Su Ye's dissatisfaction and stood up from the lawn nimbly.

"I know you have many questions, shall we go over there and talk?"

Hill walked to Su Ye's side, signaling him to step away from Wanda to discuss matters between adults.

"Fine."

Su Ye nodded, and walked with Hill to the white fence.

"I'll be honest with you."

"I was sent by Director Fury to help you."

"You might think these words are a bit presumptuous."

"But since last night."

"The Agents we deployed nearby have intercepted three waves of assassins."

"They tried to make a move on Little Wanda while you were away."

"But our best operative helped you solve these troubles."

Hill introduced herself right away, rolling up her white long sleeves to reveal her slender, fair arms.

The smart watch she wore on her wrist quickly displayed a small blue virtual screen.

Criminals with arrows piercing their chests or heads flashed rapidly before Su Ye's eyes.

One shot, one kill!

The only sharpshooter capable of such a feat was Hawkeye!

Su Ye's expression improved significantly, and the previous hostility was gone.

"Who is the killer?" Su Ye asked.

"It's not clear for now. Have you offended anyone recently?" Hill asked with a serious face.

"Does beating up every criminal in the entire city, along with the bosses of various organizations, count?" Su Ye stroked his chin and said with a strange expression.

"Ah, this..."

Hill's mouth twitched; she was shocked speechless by Su Ye's feat.

He had made enemies with all the gangs and big-boss level villains in New York.

In two days, only three waves of assassins had been sent...

This meant that at least more than half of them had been beaten into submission.

"We have already started an investigation; you should keep a low profile recently."

"Once we find the mastermind behind this, we will let you handle it yourself."

Hill raised her hand, rubbing her throbbing temples, and comforted him in distress.

"Really?"

Su Ye's face carried a hint of skepticism.

"You have that right." Hill sighed helplessly.

As the Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., she knew all the secrets.

Including the World-ending crisis thirteen years ago, as well as Su Ye's hidden identity!

This concerned the biggest secret of S.H.I.E.L.D., known only to her and Fury.

It was just that the time was not right, and she couldn't tell Su Ye this secret yet.

"Fine..."

"I have things to do tonight, so I'll leave Wanda to you."

"Make sure she goes to bed early and doesn't eat too many sweets."

Since he couldn't think of a better plan anyway, it was better to agree to Hill's suggestion.

Since identities had already been revealed, he might as well let Hill take care of Wanda for him.

"Received, Officer."

Hill revealed a playful smile, as if she had seen through Su Ye's thoughts.

It's so good to be young...

Chapter 22: Relationship Confirmed! Obadiah's Madness!

At this moment...

Stark Industries building...

Obadiah smashed his fists onto the desk in a rage, acting as a desktop cleaner.

The files piled in front of him, along with his office computer, were all knocked to the floor.

"Idiots!"

"Waste!"

"Useless!"

"Is kidnapping a little girl really that hard for you people?!"

The furious Obadiah scolded his incompetent subordinates.

The veins on his smooth forehead bulged, and his body was even trembling.

In those bloodshot pupils, extreme violence was revealed.

Yes...

The kidnapping operation targeting Little Wanda, and those hitmen who were killed...

were actually sent by Obadiah.

Since Su Ye appeared, Tony had been hanging out with him all day,

so much so that Obadiah never had a chance to make a move on Tony.

To him, Su Ye had become an obstacle that had to be removed.

However...

Su Ye's terrifying strength was no joke.

Even Omni-Man was wary of this guy.

So...

Either eliminate Su Ye!

Or win Su Ye over!

There were only two choices before him!

Eliminating Su Ye was clearly impossible.

And Tony had already poured his heart out to this good friend,

willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build him a suit of alloy armor.

Obadiah couldn't do that; buying him off with benefits wouldn't work either.

But...

Obadiah had a sudden inspiration...

He actually figured out a shortcut...

That was: kidnapping Little Wanda...

He planned to use Little Wanda's life to coerce Su Ye into working for him.

Just thinking about such a powerful Superhero working for him made even Obadiah hum with delight!

It's just a pity...

The idea was beautiful, but reality was cruel...

This bunch of bastards under him, every last one of them, were useless!

They boasted about how great they were, yet they couldn't even handle a single girl!

After a long while...

seeing that Obadiah had calmed down a bit,

the man standing in the office finally dared to speak and recount what happened.

"Sir, we really tried our best..."

"The people we selected were top-tier experts."

"But the other side had an archer; he was too powerful."

"Our people were shot down one by one before they could even get close."

"Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise you wouldn't be seeing me!"

The man wore a mournful face as he described how powerful the enemy was.

They had lost so many men, yet they hadn't even seen the enemy's face.

Those deadly arrows were like an invitation from the God of Death, precise and brutal.

They didn't even dare to recover the bodies and crawled away one by one.

How much money could they make in a month? It wasn't worth losing their lives over this!

However...

He shouldn't have explained...

When he heard that the hitmen he had spent a fortune to train had actually died to bows and arrows?

Obadiah's aged face suddenly turned flushed, and he furiously raised his hand to smash the desk.

"Bows and arrows?"

"You're talking about bows and arrows?"

"These idiots were shot to death by bows and arrows?"

"God! Am I living in the Middle Ages?!"

Obadiah, whose lips were trembling with anger, tilted his head and rose from his seat.

His body was very stiff, and the left side of his face was almost numb from anger.

"I gave you the best weapons!"

"The anti-materiel sniper rifles equipped could even punch through tanks!"

"Even the bulletproof vests you were equipped with were among the best on the market!"

"You bunch of donkeys! Retards! Cowards! Get out of here!"

"The night after tomorrow is the final deadline!"

"If you don't bring that girl back, you're the one who will die!"

"Get out!!!"

Obadiah raised his hand, pointing at the office door, and roared in fury!

He didn't want to see the idiots in front of him anymore; he wanted to kill him on the spot!

Regardless of whether this mission could be successfully completed, he would silence him anyway!

"Yes, boss..."

The man replied, trembling. He didn't even bother to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and fled the office in panic.

Inside the office...

Only Obadiah remained, sitting back in his chair in impotent rage.

He took blood pressure medication from his drawer, popped a few pills, and stuffed them into his mouth.

The old man knew better than anyone...

There wasn't much time left for him...

If he didn't find a way to deal with Tony, he would be the one to die.

The next morning...

At Zoe's house...

The messy bedroom exuded a sweet, cloying scent.

Clothes were thrown randomly on the floor, some torn into rags.

This couple, who had partied all night, had only just closed their eyes.

Suddenly...

The sound of a door opening came from downstairs...

The thin walls didn't muffle the sound, and Su Ye opened his eyes immediately.

"Zoe, it seems someone is here!" Su Ye shook Zoe in his arms.

"No, I can't do it anymore..."

The young girl, too sleepy to open her eyes, muttered something.

She was truly too tired...

But just at this moment...

Zoe's parents had entered the house and saw the shoes at the entryway.

A pair of oversized white sneakers—no matter how you looked at them, they didn't look like a girl's!

The couple looked at each other, their hearts skipping a beat!

The two had been busy working overtime last night and hadn't come home!

A man had entered their home!

"Zoe!"

"Are you in your room?!"

Sensing something was wrong, Zoe's mother looked up toward the second floor and shouted loudly.

If nothing went wrong, her daughter should be in her room, and that brat should be there too!

"That brat had better give me an explanation!"

"Otherwise, I'll shoot him!"

Zoe's father was even more furious, gnashing his teeth as he took out the handgun hidden under the photo frame.

He looked at that pair of oversized sneakers and could only pray silently in his heart.

Not black...

At this moment on the second floor...

Zoe, who was exhausted, heard her mother's call and opened her eyes abruptly!

"My parents are back!"

"Senior, you have to run!"

"Fly out the window!"

Zoe sat up with difficulty, pushed Su Ye beside her, and said in a panic.

Young people are prone to impulse, but they never consider the consequences, just like the current situation.

The best method Zoe could think of was to let Su Ye leave.

Su Ye could fly out the window and escape this bedroom.

As for...

what would happen next.

She could only take it one step at a time.

She was already prepared to be severely scolded by her parents!

However...

No matter how Zoe pushed, Su Ye didn't move.

He wore his usual expression with a smile and shook his head gently.

"I will take responsibility."

Su Ye's voice was very gentle and carried sincerity.

When he saw blood last night, he had already considered things for the future.

He might not be a dedicated man, but he was willing to take responsibility for this.

He would sit down and talk with Zoe's parents as her boyfriend.

"Senior, are you crazy?"

"My dad will kill you!"

Zoe persuaded him, feeling both happy and worried.

She really hadn't misjudged him.

In such a terrible situation, her senior was actually thinking for her.

"Bullets can't hurt me." Su Ye smiled and raised his strong arm.

Zoe, who was hugging Su Ye's arm, was lifted into the air and swung around.

"Well... okay then..."

Zoe chose to compromise.

She hugged Su Ye's arm tightly, and a sense of resolution rose in her heart.

She was ready to face her parents openly.

The two quickly put on their clothes and left the bedroom together.

They happened to bump into Zoe's parents face-to-face.

All four stood frozen in place, silently staring at each other.

Then...

Zoe's father suddenly let out a sigh of relief...

This kid wasn't Black, thank God...

Chapter 23: Gaining Recognition! The Mastermind Found!

A few minutes later...

First-floor dining room...

Su Ye sat upright at the table, observing Zoe's parents.

Zoe's father was white, and her mother was Asian.

Both were scientists working at Stark Industries.

Judging by their attitude toward Zoe, they valued their daughter highly.

Zoe's optimistic and cheerful personality was clearly due to her upbringing.

"Mom, Dad, this is Su Ye..."

Zoe introduced him stammeringly; under her parents' gaze, she was panicking.

Zoe's father said nothing, merely observing Su Ye.

"Which school do you attend?" Zoe's mother asked.

Like all Eastern parents, she placed great importance on academic credentials.

"The same one as Zoe. Dr. Helen Cho is my mentor."

"She invited me to join her team, and I am currently considering it."

"If you have any doubts, you are welcome to ask her directly."

Su Ye smiled slightly and answered the question.

As if by magic, he pulled a business card from his pocket.

It was the one Dr. Cho had given him, and she had kept hinting for him to call.

"Dr. Cho..."

"The female scholar in the field of nanotechnology?"

"Her winning the Nobel Prize is practically recognized globally!"

A look of surprise appeared on Zoe's mother's face.

She had originally thought Su Ye was a sports student.

After all, with his burly physique, it would be a shame not to play football!

She hadn't expected this kid to have such an opportunity to be favored by someone like Dr. Cho!

As long as he joined Dr. Cho's team, a Nobel Prize was inevitable in the future, and his prospects would be bright!

If her daughter followed him, she would certainly not be wronged, and with a bit of luck, she might even get some recognition!

If she could leave a mark in history books, she would definitely take Zoe back to her hometown and have a separate page in the family genealogy!

"Not bad..."

Zoe's father nodded slightly, acknowledging Su Ye's academic credentials, but this was only the first hurdle.

"Where do you live?" Zoe's father stared at Su Ye, asking the second, very realistic question.

"I live in the Upper East Side, in a Villa by the sea," Su Ye replied, his expression unchanged.

"The Upper East Side?" Zoe's mother widened her eyes and exclaimed.

That place was worth its weight in gold, with beautiful scenery; it was a place only true billionaires could afford to live!

"What about your social circle..." Zoe's father, also shocked, asked about Su Ye's social circle.

For a young person, a social circle was a matter of great importance for the future!

But before he could finish his sentence.

Su Ye pulled up a photo from his phone.

In the photo...

Tony was standing on a stool, with his arms around Su Ye's shoulders.

"Tony Stark?!"

Seeing the familiar face in the photo, Zoe's parents exclaimed simultaneously.

This was their boss, a globally recognized super genius!

No wonder this kid was still considering Dr. Cho's invitation!

So that was it...

He was Tony's friend, so naturally, he wouldn't look down on other teams!

"Yes!" Zoe nodded quickly, backing up her boyfriend.

As if she felt it wasn't heavy-hitting enough, she added.

"Stark drove a sports car to pick us up from school yesterday."

"I was also invited to visit his underground laboratory."

"Oh my..."

"The technology there is decades ahead of the outside World!"

Zoe feigned an exaggerated expression, recounting what she had seen and heard.

Zoe's parents listened, stunned, because even they hadn't seen it.

They were just ordinary research staff at Stark Industries.

"This kid is good..."

Zoe's mother nodded with satisfaction, having already accepted her daughter's boyfriend in her heart.

"Indeed..."

Zoe's father also smiled with relief, his eyes squinting.

He wasn't black, he wasn't a delinquent; he was already satisfied!

Moreover...

This kid also had a sense of responsibility!

Su Ye listened to the quiet discussion between Zoe's parents and felt relieved.

They had accepted him, and things would be much easier from here on.

However...

Just as Zoe's father had said...

The real test was still to come...

After Zoe's parents accepted Su Ye, they invited him to stay for dinner.

Watching Zoe's mother clumsily preparing a classic white-person meal in the kitchen.

Su Ye felt his scalp tingle and looked at Zoe, who was sitting nearby, with pity.

He finally understood why this girl was still like a loli even though she was an adult.

If she had eaten anything decent, she wouldn't have ended up eating such poor food!

Helpless...

Su Ye, who had high standards for food, had no choice but to enter the kitchen and shoo Zoe's mother out.

Then, under the surprised eyes of the family of three, he whipped up three stir-fried dishes as quickly as he could.

Shredded potatoes with sour and spicy sauce, pork slices with colored peppers, and bacon with fried eggs.

He even made a few oil pancakes and told Zoe's family to roll the dishes in them.

After the family of three tasted it, they gave him a thumbs up repeatedly.

They praised Su Ye's cooking, saying he could go out and open a restaurant.

The lunch hour greatly bridged the gap between them.

When Su Ye left, Zoe's father even asked him to stay.

Deeply afraid that he would never be able to eat such delicious Chinese food again.

Half an hour later...

Su Ye hummed a tune leisurely and returned to the Villa by the sea.

Hill saw him return and walked over immediately.

"The mastermind has been found, you would never guess who it is."

Hill's expression was a bit strange, deliberately keeping him in suspense and joking with Su Ye.

"You're being so mysterious, is it HYDRA?" Su Ye rolled his eyes at Hill and guessed helplessly.

According to the original timeline...

Wanda and Quicksilver had been recruited by HYDRA before they were even adults.

This pair of Mutant siblings had once been secret weapons cultivated by HYDRA.

Could it be that to get them back, the people from HYDRA couldn't hold back anymore?

Su Ye guessed so.

But Hill shook her head, hands on her hips, showing a look of being unable to laugh or cry.

"It's [Obadiah]."

"Last night, his subordinate came to surrender."

"He confessed everything, only begging to spare his life."

"Obadiah wanted to use Little Wanda to control you."

Hill sighed with complicated feelings, telling Su Ye the truth.

Even S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't dare do that!

Where did Obadiah get the guts?

Who gave him the courage?

Sure enough...

Hearing this answer, Su Ye was stunned.

"No!"

"When did I ever provoke him?"

"I haven't even met that guy!"

Su Ye was so angry he laughed.

He didn't understand what kind of sickness this old guy Obadiah was having!

"Maybe it's because of [Tony Stark]?" Hill stated her analysis.

Since Tony's accident, S.H.I.E.L.D. had launched a secret investigation.

All signs pointed to Obadiah being behind it.

He wanted Tony's life!

Perhaps Su Ye's existence made him feel a headache.

It might have hindered his subsequent opportunities!

Hill told Su Ye her analysis exactly as it was and asked for his opinion.

"Probably."

Su Ye nodded, acknowledging Hill's view.

"What do you plan to do?" Hill asked again.

If he made a move rashly, he would definitely offend Tony Stark!

Because Obadiah had watched Tony grow up and was like a godfather!

Su Ye rubbed his chin, frowning slightly, thinking of a way to break the deadlock.

Soon...

A cold sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth...

"I have a way to make this old bastard reveal his fox tail himself!"

Chapter 24: Setting a Trap! The Old Fox Can't Sit Still!

It has to be said...

To seize power, Obadiah has become unscrupulous and completely unhinged.

Even his subordinates, sensing something was wrong, have betrayed him one after another.

Dealing with such a detestable old bastard is too simple!

"What kind of method?" Hill asked curiously.

"Isn't he wary of me?" Su Ye said with a smile.

"And then?" Hill seemed to have grasped something, but she asked again, still uncertain.

"I'll find an excuse to leave New York and won't be back for a while. What do you think?" Su Ye said, teasingly outlining the plan.

"Obadiah is an old fox. Are you sure this will work?" Hill was still a bit worried.

"That's simple. Aren't you monitoring Tony?" Su Ye glanced at Hill and said something that surprised her.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s surveillance of Tony was done very covertly.

Not many people knew about it, and even Tony himself hadn't noticed.

Hill couldn't help but feel a sliver of doubt—how did Su Ye know?

Su Ye ignored Hill's shock and continued explaining the plan.

"When that old fox Obadiah heads to Tony's home, you must tell me."

"I'll call Tony then."

"I'll say that my little girlfriend and I are planning to go to Hawaii for a vacation, and ask him to look after Little Wanda for me."

"That cunning old fox, upon accidentally learning this information, will definitely seize the opportunity to make a move against Tony."

Su Ye let out a cold snort at this point.

If Obadiah dares to target Little Wanda, he must pay the price!

Those who kill will themselves be killed!

It is an eternal truth!

After a brief moment of thought, Hill agreed with Su Ye's suggestion.

If Obadiah takes the initiative, it will solve many troubles.

Words are useless when teaching people.

Experience teaches best; one time is enough.

By then...

Tony not only won't complain, but he might even appreciate Su Ye in his heart!

"A good proposal. Let's do as you say."

"Do you need us to reimburse you for this trip?"

Hill smiled and asked jokingly.

"Then I would be very grateful." Su Ye didn't refuse and agreed on the spot.

The smile on Hill's face froze instantly; she hadn't expected this.

After all...

Su Ye currently holds quite a few shares of Stark Industries.

Regardless, he can be considered a billionaire.

How could he open his mouth and say something so shameless!

Su Ye ignored Hill and returned home with a smile.

Leaving Hill standing outside the white fence, looking helpless.

Only after she watched Su Ye's back disappear into the Villa.

Did she roll up her sleeves and speak into the smartwatch on her wrist.

"Fury, you heard it all, right?"

"Your good brother wants you to reimburse his travel expenses."

"What are you going to do about this sum? Will it go through S.H.I.E.L.D.'s funding channels?"

Like a cunning lynx, Hill passed all the blame to her superior.

Nick Fury expressed that he was speechless.

He swallowed the [Motherfucker] that was already on the tip of his tongue.

"After the incident is resolved, send Agent Smith to contact Stark Industries."

"Make them reimburse it three times over..."

"No..."

"Ten times!"

"They can afford this money."

Nick Fury's cunning voice hid an uncontrollable smirk.

Trying to take advantage of him? Not a chance!

"Understood."

Hill answered crisply.

Judging by her [I knew it would be like this] expression.

It was obvious that things like this were not the first time!

Late at night...

Tony's seaside Villa...

Obadiah brought a bottle of red wine to visit Tony.

There had been no progress on the miniaturization of the arc reactor.

This old fox had no choice but to settle for the next best thing.

He set his sights on the one embedded in Tony's chest!

Inside the living room on the first floor...

"Tony, you really have to help me this time."

"Those bastards on the board of directors are pushing harder and harder."

Obadiah sat beside Tony, swirling the wine glass in his hand, and complained with a troubled expression.

The implication of his words was nothing more than wanting the [arc reactor].

In the 20th century, what is the most expensive?

Energy!

Whoever controls energy controls the World's landscape!

Once the arc reactor hits the market, it will be a devastating blow to old energy.

Stark Industries, holding the pricing power for new energy, will surely stand at the pinnacle of the World.

The steel armor developed by the weapons department will replace all weapons of the old era.

And Obadiah, controlling Stark Industries, will become the emperor of this Planet.

Every time he imagined such a vision, Obadiah's ambition would swell a little more.

He hated Tony...

Why wouldn't he hand over the technology to him!

Why wouldn't he just go die obediently!

He also hated Su Ye...

This bastard who jumped out of nowhere!

Why did he have to ruin his plans again and again!

"It's not time yet..."

Tony drank the red wine and refused decisively without thinking.

Before rooting out the mole in the company, he wouldn't put this technology on the market.

Besides...

The World isn't ready yet...

After the experience in the cave, he had grown a lot...

The people of this era were not yet prepared to deal with the [energy shock].

He planned to proceed gradually, promoting it step by step, rather than acting recklessly.

But the more Tony said this, the more intense Obadiah's jealousy and hatred became!

The atmosphere in the living room gradually became heavy.

Seeing that Tony was unmoved, Obadiah had no intention of staying any longer.

Just then...

Tony's phone suddenly rang.

It was actually a call from Su Ye!

The call connected...

"Tony, can you hear me!"

"I'm going to Hawaii with Zoe for a few days!"

"In my absence, please look after Little Wanda for me!"

"I can't talk anymore, it's quite windy here, the signal isn't very good!"

Su Ye's voice was loud, and there was the ear-piercing sound of howling wind in the background.

It sounded like he was flying at high speed, making Tony's ears buzz.

"Ah! My eardrums are about to explode!"

"Su Ye, you heartless bastard!"

"Couldn't you have called me after you landed?"

Tony covered his ears, complaining with a pained expression.

He was busy and overwhelmed, while this guy was out on a date.

And he was openly provoking him by taking his little girlfriend on a trip?

Tony grumbled and grimaced, then made a call to his personal assistant.

"Pepper, it's me."

"Transfer one of my yachts in Hawaii to Su Ye's name."

"Also, book him the best hotel, and find a professional tour guide to accompany them."

"If there are any restaurants worth visiting locally, help him make reservations in advance too."

"Money is no object. Let that brat and his little girlfriend have a good time."

Tony perfected the itinerary for Su Ye right in front of Obadiah.

Although he was grumbling, he cared more than anyone else.

His personality is just that awkward.

People usually call it: Tsundere.

At this moment...

Obadiah was listening from the side, stunned.

He was worrying about how to avoid Su Ye to make a move on Tony.

Did the opportunity just appear like this?

Could there be such a coincidence?

A sliver of suspicion rose in Obadiah's heart.

But he quickly dismissed this doubt because he knew Tony too well.

The expression on Tony's face was natural, without any sign of deliberate disguise.

He was equally shocked by this, yet somewhat helpless.

Even...

Seeing Tony's frustrated expression, Obadiah felt a secret thrill!

A godsend!

Obadiah must seize the time while Su Ye is away for these few days!

On one hand, to seize Tony's [arc reactor].

On the other hand, to continue sending people to kidnap Little Wanda.

Yes...

The greedy Obadiah would never give up on kidnapping Little Wanda!

He even spent a huge amount of money to recruit the most vicious thugs in all of New York!

I heard...

They're called the Dark Hand...

Chapter 25: Tony Under Attack! The Dark Hand's Specialists!

Perhaps it was the favor of the Goddess of Luck...

The plan went even more smoothly than expected...

When Zoe heard they were going on a trip, she jumped up with excitement.

In front of her parents, she gave Su Ye a passionate kiss.

That night, Su Ye didn't go home and stayed at Zoe's Villa.

Not only did Zoe's parents not object, but they even prepared toiletries for him.

They had already treated Su Ye as one of their own...

The night passed without incident...

The next morning...

A black bulletproof muscle car pulled up in front of Zoe's house.

With the help of Zoe's parents, Su Ye and Zoe brought their luggage forward.

The car window slowly rolled down...

A shiny bald head appeared before the group.

Seeing this guy, everyone present froze in place.

Especially Zoe's parents, whose mouths were open wide enough to fit an egg.

"Mr. Obadiah, why is it you?"

Zoe's father hurriedly straightened his clothes, looking a bit nervous.

One had to know that the person in front of him was his own top boss!

"Tony drank too much last night and hasn't woken up yet."

"Let me take his place and drive you to the airport."

Obadiah smiled slightly, trying his best to appear kind.

His disguise looked seamless, the picture of a nice guy.

It was just a pity that Su Ye was a transmigrator and knew exactly what kind of person this guy was.

"Then I'll trouble you." A smile also appeared on Su Ye's face.

This old fox had taken the bait...

That was why he was doing it himself...

He wanted to watch with his own eyes as Su Ye boarded the plane and left.

From New York to Hawaii, the journey was over eight thousand kilometers, and even non-stop flights took more than ten hours.

The round trip would take at least two days.

Even if he knew Tony was in trouble, he wouldn't be able to make it back in time.

Although Su Ye could fly.

But crossing the entire North America, a journey of eight thousand kilometers.

Not to mention how much stamina he would have left when he arrived.

In Obadiah's view, Su Ye was human after all; how fast could he possibly be?

Could he be faster than the most advanced stealth fighter?

Could his body handle it?

By the time Su Ye flew back to Tony's Villa at a leisurely pace,

Obadiah's plan would have already been realized!

He probably wouldn't even see Tony's last moment!

...

Two hours later...

Obadiah, who had lingered on the outskirts of the airport and had yet to leave.

He held binoculars, watching the plane Su Ye boarded fly from the ground into the sky.

The other party's phone had already entered flight mode, losing all contact with the ground.

Even if Tony called for help, the call wouldn't go through; there was no better opportunity than this!

"Yeah!"

The old guy clenched his fist in excitement!

The biggest obstacle was gone!

It was time for him to settle the final score with Tony for all these years!

Whether it was the arc reactor!

Or Tony's little life!

Including kidnapping the little girl!

Three wishes fulfilled at once!

Obadiah would have it all!

...

That night...

Outside Su Ye's Villa by the sea...

S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents deployed here were all on high alert.

Because the man who betrayed Obadiah had just leaked the operation plan.

An evil organization called the [Dark Hand] would make a move on Little Wanda tonight.

For this reason...

They even sent out their most outstanding thugs...

Ratso...

Finn...

Chow...

These three all had their own specialties...

In the entire underground World, they were also notorious tough guys.

Unfortunately...

The opponents they encountered were the elite-packed S.H.I.E.L.D.

At this moment...

Hawkeye, positioned on a high tower, held a compound bow and observed the situation below.

Despite it being late at night, he could still see the three people sneaking around in the night.

"Officer Hill, I see them."

"Should I shoot to kill?"

Hawkeye asked the Officer in charge of this operation through his earpiece.

"Authorized."

Hill answered very crisply, without the slightest hesitation.

"Copy that."

Having received the kill order, Hawkeye immediately aimed at the red-haired Finn.

Under the pitch-black night, this stupid guy was actually wearing a white suit!

It was hard not to be seen!

And so...

Taking advantage of the moment Finn attempted to climb over the fence, Hawkeye predicted his movement trajectory.

Whoosh—!

The black arrow tore through the night sky, emitting a shrill whistling sound.

Just when Hawkeye thought the target had been eliminated, an incredible scene occurred!

Finn, climbing over the white fence, tripped over his feet and fell flat on his face!

The arrow Hawkeye shot flew past, almost grazing his butt!

No way!

As an elite thug of a gang, Finn couldn't even climb over a fence?

A look of astonishment appeared on Hawkeye's face, leaving him speechless.

These were the killers Obadiah sent?

Are you sure these three idiots aren't here to be funny?

[Hawkeye: Nani? Is the intel fake?]

Meanwhile...

Hearing the arrow whiz past their heads, the three from the Dark Hand immediately lost their nerve.

There was an ambush!

They must have been surrounded!

That arrow just now was a warning!

They were so scared they knelt on the ground, raised their hands high, and cried out for mercy.

"Surrender!"

"We surrender!"

Ratso, Finn, and Chow shouted in terror.

Feeling the God of Death hovering nearby, they knew that only by surrendering would they have a chance to live!

To put it bluntly, they were just thugs of an evil force.

Bullying the weak and collecting protection money was fine.

Encountering an Agent like Hawkeye, they were destined to be in trouble.

Surrendering might save their lives!

Resisting would only lead to death!

Hill, who had been watching the battle, twitched her mouth and picked up the walkie-talkie, speechless.

"Hawkeye, stay alert."

"Team Two, go up and tie these three idiots up, see if you can get any valuable intel."

Hill gave the order in a strange tone.

The next second...

A group of Agents ambushed nearby rushed out like wild dogs off a leash.

Cursing with ugly profanities, they pounced with agility.

They hog-tied these three incompetent idiots.

Then, like dragging dead pigs, they took them to the interrogation vehicle.

There, the World's best psychologists and interrogation masters would warmly entertain them!

...

On the other side...

Tony's Villa by the sea...

Perhaps it was seeing a good friend living so happily.

Tony's heart also started to stir.

Just as he was contemplating whether to throw a party tonight and spend a happy time with socialites.

He suddenly heard a strange sound.

That sound resonated from within his skull.

It was his brain humming, proving that something was wrong with his body.

Tony, sensing danger, didn't even have a chance to react.

His body became stiff in the blink of an eye, completely beyond his control.

Blue-purple veins emerged on his skin under the pressure.

His face turned deathly pale, and even breathing comfortably became a luxury.

In this situation...

He couldn't even open his mouth to call for help...

Just as Tony's stiff body was about to fall to the ground.

A strong, powerful hand caught him gently from behind.

"Relax..."

Obadiah's magnetic voice rang in Tony's ear.

He raised the toy in his hand as if showing it off, his words full of pride.

"Recognize this?"

"You named it: Sonic Taser."

"It emits specific high-frequency sound waves to attack the target's auditory system."

"Causing the victim to go stiff all over and become completely paralyzed in a short time."

"What a genius invention, it's just a pity it was rejected by the authorities."

"But I like this little gadget; I've carried it with me all these years."

Obadiah rested his hands on the back of the sofa, chatting with Tony in the same gentle tone as usual.

Tony couldn't open his mouth to fight back.

That pale face of his looked somewhat terrifying.

Only at this moment did he feel a wave of regret.

Su Ye had warned him long ago that this guy Obadiah had a problem.

But he hadn't taken it to heart, still trusting this old fox.

Decades of being together...

Made Tony trust instinctively that Obadiah was his family!

Anyone in the World might harm him, but only Obadiah wouldn't!

Yet, in the face of absolute profit, family affection seemed so ridiculous!

The cruel reality taught him a lesson in the most vicious way!

If you don't listen to good advice, you suffer the consequences.

The retribution came too fast, too suddenly.

Tony, without any preparation, recalled the days in the cave.

That feeling of powerlessness that almost made him collapse surged into his heart once again.

This time...

Would a miracle happen again...

Chapter 26: Best Bad Friend! Heroic Entrance Once Again!

Inside the Villa...

Obadiah turned off the [Sonic Taser] in his hand and sat smiling beside Tony.

The abnormal state would last for fifteen minutes.

During this time, Tony couldn't do anything.

Just like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, whether he lived or died depended on Obadiah's whim.

"Tony, oh Tony..."

"When I hired someone to kill you, I was still feeling regretful."

"Would it be too shortsighted to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?"

Obadiah joked as he took off the noise-canceling headphones from his ears.

Tony glared at this old bastard, but couldn't even curse!

"But that brat Su Ye saved you."

"I thought the Goddess of Luck had abandoned me."

"It wasn't until I knew that brat had taken his girlfriend away for a vacation that I realized."

"She never abandoned me. Letting you live safely until today was to lay one last golden egg for me."

Obadiah said with emotion, picking up an extraction device from the suitcase beside him.

This was a model custom-made for Tony.

Tony stared angrily, watching Obadiah's every move.

Until that extraction device pierced his body and dragged out the arc reactor.

His last shred of luck shattered into pieces at that very moment.

Without the energy of the arc reactor to adsorb the shrapnel in his body.

Allowing those shrapnel to spread inside his body, Tony would soon die.

Taking away the arc reactor meant taking Tony's life!

"Stupid Tony..."

"Did you really think that just because you came up with a good idea, it must belong to you?"

"Your father helped build nuclear bombs. If he were as selfish as you..."

"What would the World today look like..."

Obadiah looked at Tony with pity, giving his student one final lesson as a mentor.

"How beautiful..."

"I will cherish your legacy."

"It will become the heart of Stark Industries' newest generation of weapons."

"I will bring the World back on track and hold the power in my hands."

"It's just a pity..."

"You won't see that day..."

Obadiah said with emotion, then left Tony's Villa with the arc reactor.

He didn't kill Tony; perhaps this was his final mercy.

Or perhaps...

He wanted to torture Tony, to let him truly feel the despair of being slowly swallowed by death.

Obadiah left...

In the empty Villa, only Tony was left alone...

Time passed slowly, and every moment felt like a year...

Under the double torture of despair and death, a flashback appeared before the dying Tony's eyes.

Looking back on his life, Tony realized miserably.

Aside from the childhood time spent with his parents.

Only the few days since leaving the cave felt the most meaningful to him.

And in this short memory, Su Ye ran through it all, like a lighthouse guiding his way.

Tony, who had already lost heart, felt a glimmer of hope reignite in his heart.

He thought of the first-generation arc reactor sitting in the underground laboratory.

He had originally wanted to throw it away, but Pepper had kept it for him.

Turning the almost discarded trash into an exquisite ornament.

There was even a message on it...

[Tony Stark, has a warm heart.]

That's right!

He still had hope!

As long as he could reach that place!

A strong desire to survive stimulated his adrenaline, allowing Tony to break through the limits of his body!

Tony gritted his teeth, endured the feeling of weakness, and dragged his body, stumbling toward the elevator.

He had to reach the underground laboratory and replace it with the first-generation arc reactor before the shrapnel pierced his heart!

He swore in his heart...

He would live...

Do meaningful things...

As long as he could survive this crisis, he would apologize to Su Ye.

Then form a hero team with that guy and protect the World together!

Carrying such a dream, Tony fell again and again, and struggled to climb up again and again.

Little did he know...

At this moment, he was like an old general on a stage, covered in death flags.

In any work, this kind of behavior is a sign of ominous things to come!

Sure enough...

When Tony exhausted his last bit of strength and finally reached the underground laboratory, he was too tired to stand.

He could only watch helplessly as that hope lay right in front of him.

The first-generation arc reactor was casually left on the tool table.

The ornament he usually picked up and played with was now untouchable.

That unreachable distance was as if the God of Death was joking with him.

Tony, with a look of despair, thought of closing his eyes and waiting for death to arrive.

But at this moment...

A large palm actually handed an arc reactor in front of Tony.

That pure white light looked so dreamy...

Just like the color of a [Miracle]...

Tony opened his mouth in astonishment, looked up with a dazed expression at the tall figure in front of him.

Su Ye...

He, who should have arrived in Hawaii and was cuddling with his little girlfriend.

Appeared beside him when Tony needed help the most.

Different from the visual impact brought by the last time he descended like a God!

This time, as a friend, it was still something he would never forget for the rest of his life!

More than eight thousand kilometers away!

Yet this guy came as soon as he said he would!

Just thinking about it made him want to cry!

To have such a close friend, this life was worth it!

Soon...

With Su Ye's help, Tony installed the new arc reactor.

Under the energy boost of the [arc reactor], Tony swept away his previous fatigue.

His complexion became ruddy, and his body seemed to be filled with endless strength!

However...

Tony seemed to have sensed some secret...

A look of shock flashed across his face...

The arc reactor Su Ye provided was not something he had manufactured.

That terrifying energy conversion efficiency was something even Tony couldn't achieve.

Analyzing from a physics perspective, this kind of thing was simply impossible!

"Where did you get this?"

Tony raised his hand, touched the reactor on his chest, and asked in astonishment.

"Picked it up on the side of the road."

Su Ye said with shifting eyes, not even bothering to find an excuse.

When it came to matters involving the [System], he wouldn't tell anyone.

Tony was so angry that his lips trembled, glaring at Su Ye, yet helpless.

"Weren't you in Hawaii?"

Tony changed the question, asking blankly.

He vaguely felt that Su Ye was hiding something from him.

"Yeah."

"I just got off the plane..."

"I sensed you were in danger, so I flew back at light speed."

Su Ye said with his arms crossed, looking proud of the process.

With Tony's genius brain, he would eventually discover the truth sooner or later.

"Light speed." Tony heard this term and felt his vision go dark.

His lips weren't just trembling now; he was so angry that his whole body was shaking.

Bullshit!

The light speed Su Ye was talking about!

That was fucking time stopping!

Tony finally remembered why he had to send Su Ye to school!

It wasn't for him to sleep in class, it was for him to learn knowledge!

An ignorant youth, yet possessing power that surpassed the Gods!

This was extremely dangerous for the entire World, and even the Universe!

Precisely because of this...

Su Ye must develop a sense of awe for knowledge!

[Su Ye: Already very awe-struck, I don't even dare to open the textbook!]

Thinking of this...

Tony looked like he had gone crazy, raising his hand to touch the reactor on his chest!

The one on his chest, it couldn't have been hand-crafted by Su Ye based on the prototype, right!

"Shit!"

Chapter 27: Creating a Friend Out of Thin Air? Iron Monger Makes a Shocking Entrance!

To be fair...

There is a very interesting saying in physics.

If something breaks the laws of physics and you don't know how it was done,

Then that thing must have been created by God!

So the question arises.

Is Su Ye God?

The answer is obviously no!

He couldn't even pass high school physics and gets sleepy the moment he sees a math problem!

He must have been out of his mind to actually dare to use something Su Ye gave him!

Tony swears with both hands!

He absolutely trusts Su Ye!

But his reason was questioning it frantically!

He wasn't questioning Su Ye, but that kid's terrible academic grades!

A guy who failed math, physics, and chemistry actually hand-crafted an arc reactor!

Is he crazy, or is this World crazy?

Does physics not exist anymore?

"Oh! My God!"

"Will this thing explode?"

"I don't want to die at the hands of a guy like you!"

"There is no death more ridiculous and frustrating than this!"

With Su Ye looking at him like he was an idiot, Tony suddenly went crazy.

He tried to rip the arc reactor he had just embedded in his chest back out!

"Are you trying to kill yourself!"

"This thing wasn't made by me."

"It was given to me by a friend."

"It's more powerful, more stable, and more efficient than the one you made."

"It won't even overload, and it won't let the palladium erode your body."

Su Ye couldn't watch anymore, grabbed Tony's arm, and stopped this guy's crazy actions.

"Your friend?"

Tony showed a questioning expression and asked suspiciously.

Except for his dead father, only he could master this technology!

Based on his understanding of Su Ye, this guy couldn't be creating a friend out of thin air, could he?

"There is always someone better, and there is always a heaven beyond heaven."

"Being too arrogant won't do you any good."

Su Ye vaguely reminded Tony, preventing him from doing stupid things again.

Tony stared fixedly into Su Ye's eyes, wanting to find the answer, but unfortunately, he gained nothing.

There was confidence in Su Ye's eyes, as well as helplessness toward Tony, and concern.

Tony's heart was touched deeply...

At this moment, emotion overcame reason...

Tony was willing to bet his life to verify the arc reactor that Su Ye gave him!

"I'll trust you this once..."

Tony took a deep breath and responded with a determined tone.

Immediately after...

He patted Su Ye's arm and walked toward the mechanical platform.

Su Ye leaned against the workbench, watching Tony put on the Iron Man Suit.

Suddenly...

A golden system panel appeared in front of Su Ye's eyes.

...

[System detected: The climax plot of Iron Man 1!]

[After the Host makes a choice, you will receive a system reward!]

[Option 1: Help out and assist Tony in defeating Iron Monger! Reward: Random AI!]

[Option 2: Stand by and watch the battle silently from the sidelines. Reward: Alien Tech Armor!]

...

Su Ye looked at the prompt given by the system, a trace of struggle appearing on his face.

AI.

Alien Armor.

He wanted both of them!

Children only make choices, adults want everything!

He needed a way to get the best of both Worlds!

To help Tony without needing to intervene personally.

While Su Ye was deep in thought, his phone suddenly rang in his pocket.

It was Hill!

That Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.!

The moment the call connected, Hill's anxious voice rang out from the phone.

"Su Ye! Wanda is in danger!"

"There is a three-meter-tall mecha trying to break through the security zone!"

"I don't know who the pilot is, but its target is Wanda!"

"We are building a defensive line, but we can't hold on for too long!"

Hill's voice was full of anxiety.

Even through the phone, one could clearly hear the extremely dense gunfire!

Obadiah!

This greedy old thing!

After this bastard obtained the arc reactor, he went straight for Wanda!

The old bastard's target tonight wasn't just Tony, but also kidnapping Little Wanda!

As long as he caught Little Wanda, he could coerce Su Ye to work for him!

However...

Upon hearing the intelligence provided by Hill, there was no trace of anxiety on Su Ye's face.

Not only that...

He even showed a look of pity, lamenting Obadiah's stupidity.

You have to know...

The little girl he wants to kidnap is Wanda!

The future Scarlet Witch who will slaughter her way through the Multiverse!

With just one thought, she can erase the Mutant in the Multiverse!

Even in her childhood form, with her abilities initially awakened!

She is not someone that Obadiah, wrapped in a pile of scrap metal, can face!

"Hill, have your Agents retreat."

Su Ye ordered calmly.

That group of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents cannot stop the ferocious Iron Monger.

If they retreat now, they can still avoid unnecessary casualties.

"What?"

"Then what about Wanda?" Hill was a bit anxious.

She really liked that little girl and couldn't bear to see her being kidnapped by bad guys.

"Wanda will handle everything." Su Ye promised confidently.

Meanwhile...

Tony, who had already put on the Iron Man Suit, looked in Su Ye's direction.

"This is a grudge between me and Obadiah, it shouldn't involve you all."

"Watch closely, and see how I fix that old bastard!"

As his voice fell...

Tony quickly took off from the mechanical platform!

Along the underground passage, he flew toward the outside World!

Su Ye remained where he was, as if he had realized something, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I think I know... the method to obtain [all rewards]."

...

Su Ye's Villa...

A silver-gray steel armor was rampaging through the street!

It was three meters tall, and that sturdy body was heavier than a tank!

Logically speaking, such a mechanical monster couldn't move quickly!

But the continuous energy supply from the arc reactor broke this common sense!

Facing bullets shooting from all directions, it didn't even bother to defend!

The barrage of bullets hit its thick armor, only able to splash sparks!

"Hahaha!"

"This level of power isn't even enough to scratch an itch for me!"

Sitting inside the Iron Monger, Obadiah spread his hands arrogantly and deliberately slowed his pace.

He let the bullets hit his body, advancing slowly and steadily, like a triumphant emperor returning.

Tony is dead!

Su Ye is not here!

Omni-Man is his best friend!

He wouldn't interfere in the small matters of internal company strife!

In other words...

At this moment, he is invincible!

Hill and a group of Agents were retreating while firing rapidly.

Facing the approaching Iron Monger, a sense of powerlessness made their faces pale.

This is the crushing power of technology, and it is also what future wars should look like.

Just a few dozen such steel mechas could turn the tide of a war.

Whoever masters this cross-era super weapon can rule the World!

Suddenly...

A piercing sonic boom rang out from the distant night sky...

Tony, wearing the Mark III Iron Man Suit, landed gorgeously from high altitude in a one-knee kneeling position!

The classic red and yellow color scheme, combined with the cool alloy armor.

Even at night, this guy was so eye-catching.

Tony slowly stood up from the ground, looking up at the Iron Monger not far away.

When he saw the huge size of the Iron Monger and how it was hung with weapons, he only felt his scalp tingling...

The Iron Monger's left hand was installed with a six-barreled Vulcan cannon.

The 20mm caliber armor-piercing rounds could even penetrate a tank!

The Iron Monger's right hand was equipped with an eight-tube missile launcher!

The miniature missiles fired had automatic target-seeking functions and were the nemesis of all armored vehicles!

That three-meter-tall body, located on both shoulders, was also equipped with Rocket launchers!

It could fire miniature jericho missiles, capable of ultra-long-range target locking, with power sufficient to destroy the entire block!

Besides that...

There were flamethrowers, small grenades, and so on!

It was simply a moving small arsenal!

Unlike Tony, who pursued art, Obadiah was a pragmatist.

He regarded the Iron Man Suit as a super weapon, deliberately increasing the size just to load more weapons!

Compared to the Mark III, the bloated Iron Monger had no design aesthetic at all!

It was born only for the battlefield, born only for slaughter!

Its only meaning of existence was to destroy everything!

Chapter 28: The Iron Monger Unrivaled! Make Iron Man Fly!

On the street at night...

Seeing the [Mark III] appear, Obadiah laughed with disdain.

"Oh ho ho ho, Tony!"

"I didn't expect you to still be alive!"

"You're as tough as a cockroach!"

Obadiah sneered, making no effort to hide his disgust for Tony.

He took heavy steps and launched a fierce attack toward Tony!

"That's still better than you, you old fox!"

"Do you need me to help you trim your claws?"

Tony retorted coldly.

He raised his hands, energy gathering in his palm armor, and fired two pure white laser beams!

But he still underestimated the defensive capabilities of the [Iron Monger]!

Tony's energy attack only left two charred marks on the Iron Monger's heavy armor.

Not only did the Iron Monger not retreat, it pushed through the energy beams and rapidly closed the distance with Tony!

Once it was close...

Obadiah controlled the [Iron Monger] and delivered a powerful, fierce uppercut to Tony's head!

With the enhancement of the exoskeleton armor, this punch unleashed dozens of tons of impact!

Tony's body was lifted off the ground uncontrollably, carving an arc through the air!

Then he crashed heavily onto the street ten meters away, striking Yamcha's defeat pose!

"Tony!"

"There will be no more miracles!"

"This time next year will be your death anniversary!"

From inside the Iron Monger, Obadiah's voice came, sounding nearly insane!

Mecha is a man's romance!

Even at nearly seventy years old, the moment Obadiah sat inside the mecha, he felt his blood boiling!

He craved a real battle!

A war belonging to true men!

A fierce collision of mecha against mecha!

"Just you?"

Tony scrambled up from the ground, mocking him with disdain.

He raised his right hand once more, and energy even more terrifying than before gathered in his palm armor.

Boom—!

A terrifying laser beam shot out from his palm, blasting against the Iron Monger's chest!

Under the impact of this energy, the several-ton Iron Monger was actually unable to maintain its balance!

In order not to be knocked flying...

Obadiah dropped to one knee, his ten fingers, encased in alloy armor, digging deep into the concrete road.

It plowed two narrow, deep trenches over ten meters long before he barely managed to stop his body.

"Annoying little thing!"

"Watch me tear you apart!"

Obadiah cursed angrily.

He raised the six-barreled Vulcan cannon on his left arm and, without hesitation, pulled the trigger toward Tony!

Realizing something was wrong, Tony hurriedly flew into the air, attempting to dodge the attack!

The rapidly rotating barrels fired 20mm armor-piercing rounds!

The roaring sound carried a terrifying destructive power that was chilling!

Wherever the bullets passed, even the surrounding Villas were torn to shreds instantly!

The luxury cars parked on the side of the road exploded one after another, like dominoes!

It had been less than a minute since the battle began!

But more than half of the neighborhood had already turned into a sea of fire!

Tony saw it all, and he was anxious.

While dodging, he was also doing his best to fight back.

But the Iron Monger was like a turtle box with no weaknesses.

Although he could harass the opponent, he couldn't deliver a fatal blow!

Because of Su Ye's influence, the process of Tony developing the Iron Man Suit was accelerated dozens of times!

It would have originally taken several months to slowly debug the machine and equip it with the most suitable weapons.

As a result, it was shortened to one week, and the weaponry was nearly zero.

Tony hadn't even had a chance for a field test before being forced onto the battlefield.

His seemingly flashy energy attacks were, to the Iron Monger, at most like a buzzing fly!

In short!

It's all Su Ye's fault!

Suddenly...

Tony looked up and glanced at the sky not far away...

At this moment...

Su Ye was stepping on the void, arms crossed over his chest, overlooking the fierce battle below.

After Tony arrived at the battlefield, Su Ye had also arrived, but he did not make a move.

The moment he saw Su Ye, Tony breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come and help!"

Tony set aside his arrogance and sought assistance from Su Ye.

He had already witnessed the power of the [Iron Monger] and desperately needed reinforcements!

But Su Ye remained unmoved, simply enjoying the mecha fight.

Instead, Tony, because his attention was diverted.

Was hit accurately by Obadiah's Vulcan cannon.

He was forced to fall from the sky and rolled several times on the ground in a sorry state!

"Su Ye! Why are you just watching!"

"Aren't we companions!"

Tony, struggling to get up, spoke with an even more anxious tone.

But the Iron Monger had already rushed up and delivered a calculated power punch to Tony's abdomen!

Bang—!

Tony's body was sent flying backward more than ten meters.

He crashed into a burning Rolls-Royce on the side of the road.

"Damn it..."

Tony steadied himself against the deformed hood, cursed under his breath, and stood up again.

Although he had the protection of the Iron Man Suit and wouldn't be hurt.

Being treated like a [punching bag] really wounded his pride!

However...

Obadiah did not intend to let him go...

He drove the Iron Monger and rushed toward Tony rapidly!

The thrusters on its back even emitted brilliant blue flames!

The three-meter-tall Iron Monger armor was like an out-of-control locomotive!

With Tony's expression of shock, it carried ten thousand tons of force and smashed into him fiercely!

Bang—!

Tony was like a cannonball fired from a chamber!

He temporarily lost control of the armor!

He flew backward at an extremely fast speed, smashing through the door of the Villa behind him!

After smashing through several walls in a row, he fell onto the lawn in a sorry state!

He had smashed through a Villa!

Flying from the front yard to the backyard!

If it weren't for the protection of the Iron Man Suit, he would have been turned into meat paste long ago!

Before he could even stand up...

The Iron Monger followed the hole smashed through the Villa and came charging again!

"Shit!"

The moment Tony saw the Iron Monger, his scalp tingled as he grumbled.

He activated the thrusters on his legs, preparing to fly into the air for mobile combat.

But a giant silver-gray alloy hand grabbed Tony's head and smashed it fiercely into the ground!

Boom—!

The violent impact smashed a small crater into the lawn!

Obadiah gave Tony absolutely no chance to escape!

He lifted his huge alloy foot and stomped on Tony, limiting any possibility of his escape!

"Tony! You see that, don't you!"

"This is what you call real armor!"

"I am bigger, stronger, and more lethal than you!"

Obadiah roared passionately; decades of pent-up frustration were all vented at this moment!

He had always wanted to trample Tony under his feet!

Now!

He had really done it!

Tony raised his fist and punched the Iron Monger's leg armor, making a dull clanging sound.

But no matter how he struggled, he couldn't shake off the Iron Monger; this armor was too thick!

"Su Ye!"

"Come and help!"

"Stop watching the show up there!"

Tony shouted at the night sky, seeking rescue.

Although they were hundreds of meters apart, Su Ye, who possessed [Super Hearing], could definitely hear him.

Even Obadiah, who was piloting the [Iron Monger], was amused to laughter by Tony's act of calling for help.

"Hahahaha!"

"Tony, haven't you realized it yet!"

"That guy is afraid! He is afraid of the [Iron Monger]!"

"Even a superhuman must submit to me!"

Obadiah, stepping on Tony, spread his arms arrogantly and looked up, laughing with pleasure!

To this...

Su Ye remained unmoved...

Only the look in his eyes as he gazed at Obadiah carried undisguised pity.

The commotion this old fox was making was too loud, waking Wanda from her sweet dream.

It seems...

Someone is about to be in big trouble...

Chapter 29: Chaos Magic! Wanda's Mental Storm!

At this moment… the outcome of the battle was already obvious.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents who had moved away from the battlefield were preparing for a new round of deployment.

Their mission was to protect Wanda, and they absolutely could not let the flames of war spread to this place.

This was the last line of defense!

The only thing to be thankful for was that the S.H.I.E.L.D. reinforcements had finally arrived on the battlefield.

On the street outside Su Ye's Villa, black armored vehicles pulled up one by one.

Hill picked up the latest model of Rocket launcher from one of the armored vehicles.

Since conventional weapons had no effect.

Then she would use something more explosive!

Armor-piercing Rockets that could even penetrate tanks—she wondered how many Iron Monger could take.

Just as Hill was holding the Rocket launcher and preparing to join the battle, a soft call rang out from behind her.

"Big Sister Hill, what's happening outside?"

Little Wanda poked her little head out from the Villa, asking curiously.

She rubbed her eyes with her left hand, her cute little face still looking like she hadn't fully woken up.

She was wearing pink and White pajamas printed with little rabbits and carrots, along with a pair of fuzzy slippers, and she was holding a green little dinosaur pillow in her right hand.

It was obvious she had been woken up by the explosions and had wandered out of the house.

Wanda was the protagonist of this conflict, yet she seemed completely out of place in this battle.

"There's an old bastard named Obadiah who is trying to kidnap you."

"Big Sister is leading the Agent brothers to give this old guy a good beating!"

Hill forced a smile, trying to use humorous language to soothe the little one in front of her.

However… when she heard the name Obadiah.

The girl, who had been sleepy, had her expression change instantly!

By the way… on the original timeline, Wanda only awakened her abilities under the activation of the Mind Stone.

By the time Chaos Magic truly awakened, it was already after the Infinity War.

The span in between was at least a dozen years!

But Su Ye, as a transmigrator, knew the real reason for Wanda's awakening!

Emotion! It was an emotional outburst!

The Chaos Magic contained within Wanda would produce different changes based on her emotions.

When one of Wanda's emotions reached a critical point, she would awaken the power of Chaos Magic!

This emotion could be fear! It could be sadness, it could be love! It could also be hatred!

In order to let young Wanda grow up as quickly as possible.

Su Ye used hatred as a key to open this door.

Su Ye set up a clear enemy for the confused Little Wanda! Obadiah!

The mole in Stark Industries was that old thing, Obadiah!

It was he who privately sold the jericho missile to a terrorist organization!

That group of inhuman thugs was the reason they launched the bombing on Sokovia!

Her parents died in the bombing, and this old thing bore the main responsibility!

Therefore… when she heard the name Obadiah! The murderous intent in Wanda's heart was rapidly expanding!

Along with it, Chaos Magic was also awakened!

"Obadiah…" Wanda murmured the name, and blood-colored mist overflowed from her eye sockets.

She mechanically turned her little head to look at the battlefield in the distance, which was being swallowed by a sea of Fire.

Wanda moved… She hugged the monster doll in her arms and walked toward the battlefield.

The girl's abnormality caught Hill's attention, and she hurriedly stepped forward.

"Wanda! It's dangerous here!" Hill shouted to persuade her otherwise.

She wanted to grab Wanda's arm to stop this girl from doing something foolish.

However… Wanda just waved her hand, and scarlet energy spread wildly outward!

Hill was gently pushed several meters away by this force, barely managing to steady herself.

"Big Sister Hill, take your people and leave here…" "Everyone…"

Wanda said in a low voice, her remaining sanity suppressing the infinite rage in her heart.

The crimson energy spreading from her body had already begun to erode reality!

The scarlet Chaos Magic, like blood-colored flames, scorched everything!

From under Wanda's feet, it spread to the entire block at a terrifying speed!

Wherever the blood flames passed… the originally flat lawn turned into rubble and bricks!

The detached Villas turned into architectural ruins!

In just the blink of an eye… the originally comfortable and peaceful wealthy district turned into a post-disaster scene.

Severed limbs, dried bloodstains, and charred corpses.

The devastated streets silently accused the cruelty of war.

This apocalyptic scene was deeply imprinted in Wanda's memory.

Here… was the city she once lived in…

She projected the scene in her mind into the real World, just like a Reality Marble in certain works!

Wanda wanted to personally kill the perpetrator who caused all this tragedy in her hometown, which had now turned into ruins!

It was no exaggeration to say… Wanda had created a closed Small World!

She could wantonly toy with everything trapped in this World!

In this Small World, she was the absolute ruler, controlling all the rules!

… "This…" "This is… Sokovia…"

Hill widened her eyes in disbelief, looking at the incredible scene before her.

As the Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., she had seen Sokovia after the bombing!

The image she saw was exactly the same as here! Even the billboards in the ruins had been restored!

Just when Hill was still shocked by the power Wanda displayed, Nick Fury's roar came through her earpiece.

"Everyone! Evacuate immediately!" "Abandon all equipment!" "Move!"

Nick Fury was roaring wildly.

The chaos caused by Iron Monger had already attracted the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Although he was not personally on the battlefield, he had been monitoring the situation.

His emotions rarely went out of control, unless the situation was so urgent that it could not be handled.

"Retreat!" "Everyone, evacuate the scene!"

After receiving the Director's order, all the Agents present began to evacuate in an orderly manner.

Weapons, armored vehicles—everything was abandoned on this battlefield.

Wanda ignored everything around her, walking forward with a gloomy little face.

At this moment… Obadiah, located in the center of the battlefield, also noticed the changes in the outside World.

"W! T! F?!" "What happened?"

Obadiah, piloting Iron Monger, looked around in amazement.

In just the blink of an eye, how had the environment he was in changed?

Was this some kind of novel trick?

Just when Obadiah was puzzled… his biological radar detected Little Wanda…

That little one, less than 1.3 meters tall, was walking toward him step by step!

In the city ruins that looked like the apocalypse had arrived, the cute little girl in pajamas before him felt unnaturally chilling.

Even an old fox like Obadiah subconsciously raised his left arm.

Iron Monger unfolded the heavy left arm armor, revealing the weapon hidden inside.

That was: a flamethrower!

As long as he moved his finger, flames of over a thousand degrees would swallow the girl in front of him!

But Obadiah did not do so, because he was now so arrogant that he didn't know the heights of the sky or the depths of the earth!

He believed he was the most powerful creature in the World!

Even Superman dared not attack him! Let alone a mere little girl!

Obadiah kicked Tony, who was under his feet, flying away.

He controlled the several-ton alloy armor and walked toward Wanda.

That terrifying figure, over three meters tall, was like a mobile fortress!

"What a cute little thing…" "You must be Wanda…"

Chapter 30: Rewriting Reality! The Scarlet Witch's First Battle!

Inside the Iron Monger's body, Obadiah's kindly teasing voice rang out.

Before killing this little girl, he intended to have a little chat with Wanda.

Unfortunately...

Wanda couldn't be bothered to waste words on him!

Facing this silver-grey steel mecha, Little Wanda threw the green dinosaur plush pillow in her hands at it with all her might.

Seeing Wanda's counterattack, it was so cute.

Even Obadiah couldn't help but laugh out loud!

"Oh! Look at that! What a cute little thing!"

"I can't even help but want to give you a hug!"

Obadiah was amused to the point of laughing heartily, temporarily abandoning the idea of killing her.

What a joke...

Even bullets couldn't pierce the [Iron Monger]'s armor!

Let alone the plush pillow Wanda threw over?

However...

The plush pillow flying in mid-air suddenly surged with a massive amount of scarlet light!

The originally cute plush pillow began to squirm irregularly, and its volume expanded rapidly!

By the time it reached Obadiah, it had transformed into a twenty-meter-tall Tyrannosaurus Rex!

"Roar—!"

The massive Tyrannosaurus Rex let out a passionate roar!

Under the augmentation of [Chaos Magic], its muscles bulged, erupting with terrifying strength far exceeding the limits of its body!

It charged head-on at Obadiah, slamming the several-ton "little figurine" flying dozens of meters away on the spot!

At this moment...

Tony, who had struggled to get up from the ruins, also saw this absurd scene.

"After this battle is over, I'll get you a bigger one!"

Tony greeted Wanda from behind his mask.

Using this method to express his gratitude.

Thanks to Wanda's timely intervention, his life was saved from the hands of the [Iron Monger].

Tony swore in his heart that after the battle ended, he would load more weapons.

He would never let today's shameful defeat repeat itself on any future day!

Unfortunately...

Wanda couldn't be bothered to glance at him...

Wanda hated Obadiah, but that didn't mean she wanted to help Tony.

After all, the [jericho missile] was personally developed by Tony.

The only reason Wanda didn't attack Tony was one thing!

Tony was Su Ye's friend...

From the moment Su Ye rescued her from the ruins!

She swore in her heart that for the rest of her life, she would never let him down!

But...

She still disliked Tony...

Even Wanda herself hadn't expected that she would save him here!

If she had known...

She would have waited a while before entering the fray, letting the [Iron Monger] beat Tony up first!

...

The atmosphere on the battlefield felt awkward.

Tony spread his hands, showing a strange expression, but he didn't speak again.

He was afraid that his mouth might say something thunderous that would anger Wanda.

And get treated like a bug by Wanda, crushed to death in the same absurd way she used against the [Iron Monger].

At this moment...

On the street dozens of meters away...

"Ugh, ah!"

Obadiah let out a scream.

Despite the protection of the alloy armor, the shock caused by the impact still made him feel quite uncomfortable.

Fortunately...

After completing the collision...

That terrifying giant beast changed back to its previous form.

The indestructible [Iron Monger] had actually been knocked down by a plush pillow.

"Damn it!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

Cowering inside the [Iron Monger], Obadiah shouted and cursed with a look of lingering fear.

He struggled to climb up from the ground again, glaring at Wanda who was walking over slowly.

However...

The scene that followed made Obadiah's eyes widen in terror.

The approaching Wanda glared forward with a gloomy little face, her eyes glowing red!

A burst of scarlet energy extended from within her, eroding everything around her!

Burning cars were dragged into mid-air by a massive force!

They spliced and combined with each other, turning into two ten-meter-large steel fists!

Wanda raised her left hand, pointing in Obadiah's direction.

The next moment...

Those two floating steel giant fists flew towards Obadiah!

Bang—!

Boom—!

The two ten-meter-diameter giant fists smashed fiercely onto the [Iron Monger]'s body!

Forcing the [Iron Monger], which had just stood up, to collapse onto the ground in a sorry state once again!

But the giant steel fists clearly had no intention of letting him go.

Boom—!

Under Wanda's command, they continued to hammer down without stopping!

Beating the [Iron Monger] until it couldn't stand up!

Beating the ground until it kept sinking!

"Pfft!"

Obadiah, cowering inside the [Iron Monger], spat out a mouthful of blood under the waves of extremely strong impacts.

The steel fists Wanda had temporarily assembled couldn't break the [Iron Monger]'s defense.

But the shock brought by the impact alone was enough to take his life!

He was like an egg placed in a microwave to heat, ready to explode at any moment!

If he didn't find a way to save himself, he might not even have a whole corpse left!

"Stop! Stop!"

"I'm not fighting anymore!"

"I was wrong!"

"Young people should practice martial virtue!"

Obadiah sent a plea for mercy to the outside World through the [Iron Monger]'s loudspeaker.

Hearing Obadiah's plea for mercy, Wanda finally stopped her attack.

When those steel giant fists, weighing tens of tons, did not fall again.

Obadiah controlled the [Iron Monger], and only then, with his heart pounding, protected his head and got up from the ground.

"Naive brat!"

"You are too merciful!"

"That is the reason for your defeat!"

"In modern kung fu, where is there such a thing as stopping at a point!"

Taking advantage of the gap while Little Wanda stopped attacking, Obadiah grinned and raised his right hand.

The launch nest loaded with [eight-tube micro-missiles] was triggered at this moment!

An old fox is an old fox; words to deceive a little girl came easily to his mouth!

Whoosh—!

Each micro-missile, trailing brilliant exhaust flames, flew towards Wanda!

The power of these missiles was enough to blow up a house!

Even the most advanced main battle tank could not resist them!

However...

These deadly micro-missiles, before even getting close to Wanda, were entangled by streams of scarlet energy.

Subsequently...

All the micro-missiles suddenly exploded in mid-air!

Transforming into blood-colored rose petals, drifting towards the surroundings!

Rewriting reality!

This is the power of [Chaos Magic]!

In this gorgeous rose rain, Wanda stared coldly at the front.

The [Iron Monger] stood blankly in place, the absurd reality shattering his worldview!

"This! This! This!"

"This is impossible!"

"You little monster, how on earth did you do that!"

Inside the [Iron Monger]'s body, Obadiah's exclamation filled with disbelief rang out!

He had originally thought that relying on the steel mecha, he was already invincible in the World!

Yet he never thought...

Before he could be proud for too long, he encountered a monster like Wanda!

Wanda's [Chaos Magic] surpassed Obadiah's cognition!

magic...

To ordinary people, it was something that only existed in illusion...

Now...

It had appeared in the real World, right in front of his face...

The little girl in front of him simply came from another dimension...

Obadiah panicked...

Wanda could reshape deadly missiles into rose rain...

Did that mean...

As long as she wanted to, she could even turn this steel mecha into a pile of scrap iron?

Just as Obadiah was pondering how to escape the clutches of this little monster.

Wanda used her actions to prove Obadiah's guess.

In Obadiah's desperate eyes, Wanda's raised left hand made an opening motion.

On the [Iron Monger]'s sturdy body, scarlet light suddenly burst forth, just like the previous missiles!

The next moment...

The [Iron Monger]'s armor seemed to have received an order.

It actually gave up resistance and opened automatically!

"Move!"

"Move for me!"

"Shit! What kind of joke is this!"

Obadiah howled in despair, but no matter how he tried, the [Iron Monger] had stopped running.

All functions were shut down internally!

Like a loyal servant, it respectfully knelt on one knee, executing the order given by the queen!

As the heavy hatch opened, Obadiah, who was cowering inside, was finally exposed to the sight of outsiders.

"Uh..."

Obadiah opened his mouth wide in terror.

Having lost the protection of the [Iron Monger], he was just an old man nearing seventy!

An Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. in his prime could easily subdue him!

Let alone...

The enemy he was facing...

Was a monster of Wanda's level...

Before the old fox Obadiah could escape from inside the [Iron Monger].

A burst of scarlet energy wrapped around him and brought him to Wanda's side.

Obadiah was hung in mid-air, unable to even struggle.

Like a piece of meat on a chopping block, fit only to be slaughtered!

He was truly desperate...

In this modern society that emphasizes [technology].

magic, something like this, was simply trampling on common sense!

Facing the death threat close at hand, Obadiah showed a smile uglier than crying.

"Hiss..."

"Can we reconcile...?"
