Chapter 600: Agreement Zero Passed: Execution of the Fourth Catastrophe

【Tong Ge, look quick—I can lift up the entire universe!】

On screen, surrounded by numerous soldiers, the being known as God-King Garen squatted while lifting an entire universe with one hand.

【Wu~! Demacia!!!】

The opponent roared, and the universe in his hand hurled toward the nearby Iron Man.

【Don't call me Tong Ge.】

In the instant the iron armor turned, countless multicolored, multifaceted gems on its chest flashed brilliantly, and a phoenix's phantom emerged behind him.

He raised his right hand, pressing his thumb and middle finger together.

Snap! As the finger snap rang out, the universe hurtling toward Iron Man dissolved like snowflakes.

As if both intoxicated and showing off, he raised both arms and declared amid oceans of swirling universes:

【IamironGod!】

Snap!

Snap!

Snap!

His finger snaps came in rapid succession; universes flew toward the God-King like snowballs.

【Cunning scoundrel! Brothers, take him down!】

【Our actions are righteous!】

Countless holy soldiers, bearing golden lion shields or banners bearing divine symbols, emerged from chaos and charged into the incoming universes—each assault was utter devastation and trampling.

【Destroy you three thousand times!】

The two exchanged blows playfully, laughing and teasing, while nearby, passing armies of gods and demons spread destruction with even greater efficiency.

A far more terrifying presence replaced the sky, beyond any measurable distance.

That was a Daoist with torrents of demonic qi, blood tears streaming from his eyes; a man laughing as he lit his furnace to refine pills; a god wielding a three-pronged, double-edged halberd, his face covered in multiple eyes, radiating blood-red rays of hatred and resentment.

They were attacking a sacred, immaculate vessel that protected all realms, as if participating in a grand feast.

The ship rocked violently upon the sea, enduring wave after wave of assaults.

Inside it, a place resembling a colossal city-fortress, countless beings looked upward in prayer—yet all they could see was God and the Demoness dancing amid the mournful symphony of the apocalypse.

Angels blew their horns; the world met its end—finally, beneath one swing of a baseball bat.

Heaven and earth merged; all worlds disintegrated; the Milky Way burst its banks; spacetime shattered; nothing within or beyond the cosmos remained unscathed.

"Got it," muttered Ant-Man Scott: "He snapped this finger?"

No one answered.

Long silence; the Avengers had no idea how to describe the films they had just witnessed.

In the silence, the theater door opened, and applause rang out.

Clap! Clap!

"Remember to take your phone, wallet, keys—also don't forget to clean up your popcorn wrappers and fruit peels," Su Su Tuoni Stark called out:

"It's only been an hour outside—anyone want popcorn and soda and watch it again?"

All eyes turned to Su Su Tuoni Stark—including the Su Su Tuoni with white hair ten years older.

"I reshot this scene many times to get this effect."

Su Su Tuoni shrugged and said: "Don't be like that—I don't have much screen time; even if my acting's bad, who cares?"

Acting

Hmm. Acting

It's truly hard to imagine.

Su Su Tuoni joked naturally, recounting the behind-the-scenes Easter eggs, while the movie screen still showed the crew cleaning up the set.

"As you can see, I was discovered by a multiverse time-space scout and took the stage name 'Robert Downey Jr.'—now I'm busy filming movies across countless universes."

Su Su Tuoni Stark pressed the remote; the screen displayed the current prosperity of Tiancheng.

He stood with his hands behind his back, amiably introducing:

"Of course, our crew sometimes doubles as world-savers—but we don't take payment; we simply welcome saved worlds to join our crew as guest stars, just like you saw in the movie."

Clearly, it resembled the city in the film—but far more magnificent and grand.

Steve raised his hand and asked: "Su Su Tuoni, I have a question."

"Go ahead," Su Su Tuoni nodded.

"Why did you hide this movie screening from Fury?"

"Because that guy's a control-freak paranoid."

What's SHIELD like?

Whenever something slips beyond their control, they immediately try to monitor it.

"Captain, do you want to fight God when you're securing the Holy Grail?" Su Su Tuoni asked. "You might even hold your own."

"Forget I asked," Steve immediately changed the subject:

"Su Su Tuoni, I'm glad you're being honest with us—but why today?"

He had exchanged multiple emails and calls with Su Su Tuoni Stark, trying to glean something indirectly.

But for this entire period, Su Su Tuoni had been utterly mysterious, revealing not a single clue or detail.

Their last contact was when they captured Loki and sent him back to confinement.

Today at noon, however, he unexpectedly invited the Avengers—and another group of Avengers from 2023—to visit Stark Tower and watch a movie.

"I've been swamped with shooting schedules these past few days," Su Su Tuoni explained:

"But now a group of invaders is attacking our universe, so I want you all to avoid being deceived."

In Su Su Tuoni's words, the organization known as the Abyssal Cycle Space specializes in destabilizing timelines, collecting infinite Origin Stones from various universes, committing arson, murder, robbery, and every imaginable evil, and enjoys infiltrating different worldlines to meddle in secret.

"You should remember," Su Su Tuoni looked at White-Bearded Su Su Tuoni and others: "In the normal timeline, Thanos's army never included these people."

"It's them," White-Bearded Su Su Tuoni said, still shaken.

"Indeed," Doctor Strange nodded in surprise:

"In my twelve million four hundred thousand probability simulations, neither they nor you should have appeared in that single viable outcome."

But now, the future has changed—Thanos has been imprisoned on Earth instead.

"Yeah," Su Su Tuoni Stark sighed:

"The only viable outcome was me snapping my fingers to erase Thanos, then you all showing up in Suits to attend my funeral."

"I should thank you," White-Bearded Su Su Tuoni glanced at Doctor Strange, barely avoiding becoming a single-parent household.

With eyewitness testimony, the credibility of his earlier claims instantly increased.

"But what about the Holy Grail War? And your TV shows and movies," Doctor Strange asked: "Are those also you?"

"The Holy Grail War is real—it's just hard to explain to you."

Su Su Tuoni glanced at Wanda and said: "You don't have to believe me—but I hope you don't believe anyone else either. That's enough."

"Friends, we're saving this world."

"I still don't get it," Fat Thor, munching popcorn, shook his head:

"So many Fathers, gods, and magic-users from other worlds gathering to film TV shows, while you're supposed to be protecting timelines and the multiverse?"

If that invading organization is this powerful, why don't you just recruit more people—or tell others sooner?"

"Sorry, Su Su Tuoni, I want to trust you—but there's way too much bullshit going on here."

"And your changes over this period have been enormous," Natasha said: "In just over ten days, you've become this version of yourself."

"Kinda like the awakening trope in that TV show," Fat Thor joked, then his smile slowly faded.

"Actually, we belong to a vast cosmic empire."

Su Su Tuoni rubbed his nose, his pupils dilating as he gazed off to the side, raising an eyebrow:

"We maintain order and peace across countless universes and voids—we're all members of the Temporal Administration Bureau, a subordinate agency of that empire, so until we receive a world-ending mission, we must follow the original timeline."

WTF

What is he saying?

Everyone focused their attention on Su Su Tuoni.

"Oh," White-Bearded Su Su Tuoni covered his mouth in surprise: "That's unexpected."

"You mean an alien empire," Hawkeye tried to phrase it: "And inside that empire, you have the Holy Grail God, the Temporal Administration Bureau?"

"Yes. Its name is the Hiling Empire."

Su Su Tuoni's pupils regained focus; he nodded at the group and said:

"We belong to the Hiling Empire's Temporal Administration Bureau—a department managing all universes, subordinate to the Temporal Management Center, responsible for acquiring flow quotas from the Temporal Management Center to support the operation of the 'Macro-World' network."

"Filming movies is just camouflage and a hobby; the real purpose is to monitor the Abyss and protect the balance of the Void."

"God is part of the mystical side, licensed and certified; the supreme superior of the Supreme Sword Sect is Xikaro, an Imperial Lieutenant General. The movies you're watching now are the originals—but he's carved countless pirated discs and scattered them across the Void's universes."

"So if you ever see any other versions elsewhere, don't doubt it—they're definitely pirated discs."

For the next half hour, Su Su Tuoni explained the organizational structure of his group to everyone and played the post-credits scenes from every movie location.

After the movie ended, Su Su Tuoni enthusiastically organized lunch and had Ru Hua lead the group to the dining hall.

"Excuse me," Old White-Bearded Ka Yi waved to Su Su Tuoni from the side.

"Want to watch a replay?" Su Su Tuoni asked.

"Last night, before I lost my magic, I observed the multiverse torn apart by a powerful magical force," Ka Yi stroked his beard and smiled:

"It was aimed at you—I'd like a reasonable explanation."

"No problem," Su Su Tuoni unhesitatingly admitted, then took two steps and opened a door.

Crimson magical light surged out; as the old man Ka Yi's eyes widened, within the doorway—

"Don't think I didn't notice—you sneaked off to meet her again," Fa La said coldly.

"What now, my young lady?" Su Lin rubbed his forehead in despair: "I just went for coffee—don't make a scene again."

Luo Xiaoying slammed the table: "If you don't shape up, leave my sight with that fox spirit."

"Why do you always doubt my innocence?!"

Su Lin, unable to bear it any longer, stood up, locked his arm around Lu Mingfei's neck, dragged him over, and pointed at his delicate face:

"So every time I finish a meal with friends—even if they're guys—I don't even bother mentioning it!"

The two women demanded simultaneously: "Which side are you on?!"

"Middle!"

Su Lin hugged Yi Leina, who stood in the middle smiling, and placed a document on the table: "Today I'm divorcing you, Su Su Tuoni."

"What's going on?"

"Nothing. Sorry for the disturbance."

Su Su Tuoni slowly closed the door, turned to the stunned Master Ka Yi, and said: "Just a family dispute from God's household."

"It's her, all right," Master Ka Yi winced, pulling at his beard; he took a deep breath, watching the strands he'd just pulled off, then turned and left.

"What a mess."

Watching the figure vanish around the corner, Su Su Tuoni Stark pulled the door open again.

"All settled. Shit! When did you get here?"

Inside, he saw a bald man—no, it was Bald Ka Yi, the Supreme Master Ka Yi, standing inside.

Su Lin handed over the signed divorce agreement, only to see the paper spontaneously combust.

Yi Leina's pupils contracted, her gaze shifting between Fala and Luo Xiaoying.

"Don't worry." Su Lin's eyebrow twitched as he turned to Ku Yi and explained:

"Yesterday, I just had a minor dispute with my ex-wife. Tonight's Holy Grail War will proceed as normal, but the Sanctum's defenses may require your effort."

After pausing briefly on Fala's face, Ku Yi nodded and used the Ring of Levitation to open a portal and depart.

As the arbiter of the Holy Grail War and a unique figure linked to the Earth's dragon veins across the multiverse, he possessed certain privileges even under large-scale magic suppression.

"They've already finished watching the movie," Su Su Tuoni sighed helplessly:

"They've all been given explanations based on what was written in the group chat—they're unlikely to believe it."

"Whether they believe it or not doesn't matter; we're just looking for an organization to take the blame," Su Lin said lazily, leaning back in his chair:

"You're going to get exposed eventually anyway—better to expose yourself proactively and build them a little trust."

"Even if they choose to side with you, they can't help much—but at least they won't drag you down."

"Of course, we still need to guard against Nick Fury or someone else being fooled—shouting for you to wake up while delivering a righteous backstab."

Cities are full of tricks, so working people's lives always require counter-tricks to survive.

Weigong Shilang's precedent is right there, and now it's the time for the Type-Moon universe crossover.

Under these circumstances, one misstep could lead to a plot where future Su Su Tuoni Stark beats up present Su Su Tuoni Stark.

Or countless parallel-universe Starks beating up the Devourer Stark.

Even though you're not the Multiverse Devourer at all—just listed as the first kill target,

Those Reincarnators couldn't care less how many bowls of cosmic essence you've devoured.

"Since it's already like this, why don't we just become villains?"

Su Lin proposed in the group chat: "Infinite Reincarnation: Start Devouring the Starry Sky from Marvel."

Ye Fan: "I'm fine with it. Once I reach Great Completion, I'll head straight to the Forbidden Zone and feast."

Xiao Yan: "What if the Hun Tian Di storyline has already been devoured?"

Fang Zheng: "I hope you're talking about minion lanes and jungle areas."

Meng Qi: "You were meant to be a god who devours all worlds, yet you deliberately sheathe your claws and act like a waste."

Lu Mingfei: "?"

Well, it seems everyone has the urge to blow something up.

Some, like Meng Qi, are quite rational—he wants Su to blow it all up.

Though this situation arose before due to misunderstandings and coincidences, this time it's truly a name made across all realms.

Universal wanted poster

You can even submit your own bounty.

It's hard to imagine how the Reincarnation Space's judgment mechanism works.

Huai Shi: "Big shot, did we get the flavors mixed up?"

By the way, at the restaurant, General Ke seems to be being harassed by a female customer."

Lu Mingfei: "Don't let her get near my brother until you've run a bio-matrix scan—I don't want him waking up from a dream with wet pants!"

Su Lin: "Cough, cough."

When there are children in the car, speed must still be kept under 40 kph.
