"Tell me the truth."
Fang Mo looked at Stark, who seemed somewhat hesitant, and directly asked, "This anti-series armor you want to create, are you planning to stab me in the back again?"
"You are my lifesaver."
Stark immediately defended himself, "From the very beginning in the terrorist's cave, to Pepper's danger later on, my accidental palladium poisoning, and the extremis virus incident, I don't even know how much I owe you. How could I possibly stab you in the back..."
"Let me remind you, I've been studying the most vicious dark curses recently," Fang Mo interrupted. "If anyone lies, a giant black panther will immediately appear."
"I told you I'm not researching anything against you..."This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
"In your girlfriend's body," Fang Mo stared at Stark and added another line.
"I blatantly asked you for the Lamberton crystals; that surely can't be considered backstabbing."
Hearing this, Stark immediately changed his tone, spreading his hands and saying, "You know, I am the world's greatest genius scientist, but after meeting you, I actually started to believe a bit in magic. This is not a good sign, so I must find a way to prove that the path I'm on is the right one."
"So, you started researching the anti-series armor?" Fang Mo asked.
"No, no, no." Stark waved his hands, then quickly explained, "I just want to challenge magic with my technology, it's like a friendly competition... Yes, just a technical exchange between friends, nothing more."
"So, you think with a few broken Lamberton crystals, you can challenge me?" Fang Mo almost laughed, "You think these things are a challenge letter from an abyssal demon? My partner uses these for industrial arrays, sold by the set, and there's even something called the Lamberton energy sphere that's even more ridiculous."
"Uh..." Hearing this, Stark hesitated for a moment. But then he suddenly noticed Thor, the God of Thunder not far away, "Actually, you are my ultimate challenge target. Before that, I plan to try challenging others, like Thor..."
"You want to challenge the son of Odin?"
Thor's Mjolnir had just been repaired, and he was very happy, so he immediately agreed, "No problem, I admire your courage, but I still advise you to prepare well, because my Mjolnir is not something your iron shell can withstand."
"This is not just any iron shell," Stark said. "In fact, this suit of armor contains less than 0.54% iron; it is mostly made of titanium. That's the charm of science..."
"Science is a wicked path, how do you not understand?" Fang Mo frustratingly interrupted him, "Haven't you heard the saying? The end of science is theology. I advise you to convert to the divine path now, become a great priest. Oh, by the way, let me tell you a fun fact, the scientist who created the Little Boy bomb was a priest named Paul Tibbets..."
"Can you not trick me, please?"
Stark massaged his forehead, "Little Boy doesn't have a specific creator; it was developed by a department. That Paul Tibbets wasn't a scientist or a priest; he was a pilot..."
"Nani?"
After hearing this, Fang Mo was first stunned, then had a moment of realization, "So, he wasn't a priest, no wonder he was willing to drop Little Boy from a plane..."
"You've really had enough."
Stark sighed with a headache, "With myself and my stand, that's three mouths in total. How can I not outtalk you?"
"That's because one of your stand is a Black man."
...
Stark didn't say anything, but he indeed felt something similar.
No matter how bad the situation was, as long as this guy was around, he seemed inexplicably able to calm down. It was like this when Pepper was in trouble, and during the Extremis virus situation too. He was like a sun that could dispel all misfortune and despair, shining on everyone present.
"You're right, it's indeed time to leave this place."
At this moment, Fang Mo also nodded suddenly, then turned to Nick Fury, "Especially you, it's time to step out of your comfort zone."
...
Stark was speechless again.
It seems that getting too much sun does indeed make the skin darker.
But jokes aside, everyone quickly got down to business. Rocket Raccoon organized some research materials, Stark and Thor cleaned up the ruins, and Nick Fury discussed the progress here with Fang Mo in detail, along with some details about Thanos's invasion.
About half an hour later, everyone had pretty much finished tidying up.
Since the Space Stone was stolen by Thanos, the means of transportation had been changed to the Bifrost Bridge.
Fortunately, the space blockade created by Thanos did not last long. Thor called out loudly to Heimdall, and soon the beam of the Bifrost Bridge descended, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in Asgard.
Because there was still business to attend to, they didn't stay in Asgard for too long.
They directly returned to Earth via the Bifrost Bridge.
After returning to Earth, everyone went their separate ways. Nick Fury needed to gather the Avengers to explain the situation with Thanos, and Rocket Raccoon and Thor went with him.
As for Stark, he likewise had many matters to attend to.
On one hand, he had to explain the situation to Pepper, and on the other, he was planning to upgrade his armor. He had gathered a lot of new inspiration previously in Vanaheim, but the conditions there were limited, so now that he was back, he hurried to upgrade his suit.
However, as everyone got busy, Fang Mo was somewhat left aside.
Out of boredom, Fang Mo simply started to research the materialization of Minecraft items into reality.
This time, however, what was materialized was not an item, but the previously mentioned dimensions, namely the four great abyssal realms of the Abyssal Domain.
He went to one of Nick's safe houses from memory, then with a thought, summoned Steve and took over J'zahar's scepter from him. The next second, a flash of white light passed, and Fang Mo's hand was holding a strangely shaped staff.
This was a staff made of an unknown material, heavy to the touch, about the height of a person, straight in shape, with a sensation as if it was alive, cold and slick. At the very top of the staff was a gemstone floating like an eyeball, emitting a murky aura.
Fang Mo closed his eyes, feeling the authority contained in the staff, and with a forward swing, suddenly a dark green teleportation portal appeared out of nowhere in front of him, from which one could faintly hear some horrifying howls.
And at that moment, another portal, like a ring of fire, appeared simultaneously.
With a face of helplessness, The Ancient One walked out from it.
