Chapter 312 Destruction is Knocking
The sudden enemy attack interrupted the "reminiscing" between the two Tonys.
"If I were you—and I really am you—I wouldn't bring up such old stories!"
Every word Tony, the cyborg, just said was challenging Tony's worldview.
"This is nothing!"
Doctor Strange, who arrived at the scene, didn't forget to add a few more charges against the cyborg Tony:
"He also created a clone of Thor, leading to the death of one side's heroes during the Civil War and inevitably worsening the situation between the registration faction and the opposition. Later, he even exiled Hulk to outer space. When Hulk returned, he wanted to kill us all. Upon hearing this, the cyborg Tony couldn't help but retort to Doctor Strange, 'Don't forget you were involved in the Hulk incident too!'"
Tony, listening to Doctor Strange and the cyborg Iron Man bickering, felt utterly exasperated and immediately couldn't help but unleash a torrent of profanity:
"What the hell is this cloned Thor? So Asgardian gods can be cloned too? And what does 'exiling Hulk to outer space' mean? Dr. Banner is such a nice guy, what did he do to you guys?!"
Tony Stark's worldview as Iron Man is facing a huge challenge. Even in a parallel universe where anything is possible, the possibility presented to him now seems a bit too wild.
According to Tony's own vision, Iron Man should have used his intelligence to transcend the ordinary and become a shining star among humanity.
And what kind of things has the other party done now? They've completely transcended the ordinary!
Looking at the two humanoid apes in front of him, Tony was speechless for a moment, but with a formidable enemy at hand, he couldn't say anything more.
The heroes of Earth in this parallel universe are quite united; even after causing so much trouble for each other, they still manage to stick together.
There's only one possibility: there's greater external pressure forcing them to do so.
"So, which enemy has come knocking this time? Do you need my help to settle this?"
Given their ruthless and cunning ways, it's impossible for them not to have enemies.
Don't ask why Tony would help these unrelated people solve their problems; it's just that Iron Man is awesome.
The cyborg version of Tony waved his hand impatiently: "Stay put, we don't need you."
This wasn't the first time they'd dealt with this kind of problem; if they could repel that mysterious person once, they could certainly repel him a second time.
As they were talking, Doctor Strange suddenly sensed something, made a spell with his hand, and a golden ring swept across, instantly teleporting the three of them outside the Helicopter.
At the same time, a beam of light that stretched across the sky descended from the heavens, cleaving the space carrier where the three had been standing in two.
Doctor Strange recognized the spell, but this was the first time he had ever seen one on such a scale—"The Sword of Vishanti!"
The attack struck the core of the space carrier, causing an implosion that reduced this trillion-dollar flying toy to ashes.
"That's impossible!"
Doctor Strange was puzzled as to how the enemy could bypass the protective spells and launch such a sudden attack when he had already cast protective spells all over the Earth.
But his confusion did not make the half-mechanical Tony, who was indifferent to life and death, hesitate:
"You son of a bitch!"
After a shout of cursing, countless war machines from the crashing space carrier swarmed out under the command of the cyborg Iron Man, unleashing a barrage of firepower at the point of attack.
The cannonballs and lasers hit their targets without causing the expected commotion. After a brief silence, Doctor Strange, sensitive to magic, spread his arms out, revealing a phantom of a magical shield composed of intersecting squares and circles:
"The Shield of Seraphim!"
The green energy beam, representing destruction, was launched first but was blocked by Doctor Strange.
Seemingly realizing that they couldn't harm each other in this long-range combat, the attacker, who was far away, appeared in front of the three of them in a flash.
"The first intrusion was just a warning; this time, it means your time has come."
Doctor Doom, clad in green robes and silver armor, scanned the three men with a haughty air. To him, this universe was merely an unremarkable stop on his long road to destruction, until he spotted Tony Stark among them.
The one wearing the Amordoid Core Armor.
"interesting."
Their eyes met, and Tony instantly recognized the newcomer:
"Even though you changed the color, I still have to say, your fashion sense is absolutely terrible!"
On the surface, Tony could still crack a few words, but deep down he was filled with fear and a sense of helplessness at being hit by the boomerang.
Tony was just criticizing the heroes of these parallel universes for doing all sorts of bad things, which led to a constant stream of enemies coming to his door. He never expected that this time, the enemy he encountered would actually be related to him!
The other party wasn't an enemy provoked by someone from this parallel universe, but rather another version of myself that I had encountered before!
Even though his face was covered by an iron mask, Tony could tell it was him just from his eyes and other features!
The opponent's armor configuration was no different from his own, sharing the same core logic, except that it was a dozen or so versions more advanced.
Tony knew they would meet again sooner or later, but he never expected it to be like this.
All the preparations I made for this day are still in another universe!
"How long can you hold him off?"
Tony asked this question because he needed time to find a way to contact the other side and get some reinforcements.
As for facing it head-on alone?
Tony never considered this an option. Tony Stark is a genius, not a fool. His opponent was far ahead of him, and the technological gap they had built up was unimaginable.
Not to mention that the opponent's superb magic was a completely unfamiliar area for Tony, making him utterly hopeless in the fight against it.
He can only assume now that Batman or Galactus have found Superman and are searching for his missing self.
On the other side in Asgard, Joey, taking advantage of Thor's recent victory in the resurrection match and the fact that Thor's fingers were still malfunctioning due to the snake venom, easily won the brawl in the carnival.
After beating up Thor to vent his anger, Joey began to regret it.
For no other reason than that, Saul had already steered the conversation toward himself, but Joey's sudden outburst completely confirmed the truth of the whole thing.
This secret is now known to a third person.
After racking his brains for ages about how to kill her and silence her, Joey still had no idea what to do and could only sigh in frustration.
Thor was saved by Joey's efforts, although it was mainly due to his own hard work. But this should at least be considered a sunk cost for Joey.
Is there some kind of thing that can precisely modify memories? No, wait!
Thinking of this, Joey slapped his forehead, suddenly remembering something—
Loki gave him that jar of brains!
Who else could have the mind of a mutant with telepathic abilities but a bald man in a wheelchair?
What's the difference between having that thing in Batman's hands and having no one watching over it?
Thinking of this, Joey pushed aside Thor, who still wanted to have another match with him, a best-of-three contest:
"Oh no, I have to go! Heimdall, see me off!"
After crossing the Rainbow Bridge to Earth, Joey rushed to the secret base in the lower levels of Manhattan, where he saw the brain, still intact, lying to the side, submerged in nutrient solution.
Batman, who was expected to be itching to investigate, was busy with other things.
Upon seeing Superman return from Asgard, Batman breathed a sigh of relief, as if he were seeing a long-lost nuclear-powered bull and horse:
"Perfect timing! But a new problem has arisen; we need to take a long trip!"
"Why? Everything's fine here, isn't it?"
Joey's question made Batman feel a little guilty, since he had initially thought everything was normal after returning.
It wasn't until the Spider-Army sent a message saying that the Spider-Man from this universe hadn't gone home after school and had been out of contact all day, that Aunt May and Uncle Ben had already called the police.
Batman then realized that two people seemed to be missing from the base.
"Tony?" Joey frowned after being reminded by Batman, his eyes sweeping across Santa Monica Bay in western Los Angeles:
"Shouldn't he be walking onto the Hollywood Walk of Fame right now? Where is he?"
From the moment she returned, Yang Yi didn't really think there was anything wrong with Tony not being at the base.
Anyway, as a master of time management, that guy usually spends his limited life on endless low-level pleasures, except for doing things that no one else but his brain can do.
His gaze had now scanned almost the entire solar system, yet he still hadn't found a trace of the Iron Man suit.
"Of course, Tony also split up with us to look for you."
Batman was exhausted and covered in sweat while repairing the teleportation facility, but thanks to the addition of Superman, a human-shaped high-precision machining lathe, the progress was quickly accelerated.
Previously, the three parties acted separately. Ganata overloaded the teleportation device and didn't even take off, while Batman was lucky enough to arrive in the correct universe.
As for the unlucky Tony and Spider-Man, they headed to one of the universes that Joey had once passed through.
After repairing the teleportation facility, Joey dragged Zhang Parker, who had been wandering around with him in various universes, over to have him analyze the coordinates.
After analyzing the coordinates, Zhang Parker concluded: "Your Iron Man and Spider-Man must have gone to a universe we passed through before."
Which one?
Joey was caught up in multiple parallel universes because of Cheshire Parker's stupid plan. When he finally arrived in the universe where Ultron 30k was, the universes he passed through were quite different.
In the universe of Ragnarok, things would be better, as the Serpent of Midgard would be dead, and the world would be at peace after Ragnarok ended.
If it were the previous universe, the timeline where Chew Parker went astray, and Joey and Chew Parker arrived too late after Wolverine killed Ant-Man and escaped, they would have been hunted down as the killers of Ant-Man. If they hadn't escaped quickly enough, they would have fought with at least half of the Avengers.
If Tony had gone there, he probably would have received the same treatment.
"Unfortunately, you guessed right, Iron Man went to that universe."
Zhang Parker pointed to the screen:
"But his situation may be more complicated than ours, because he travels twenty years after our visit."
