Chapter 1272: The Bat Behind (Part 2)

Loki, lying on the ground, gritted his teeth and raised his head, tossing his hair back so it wouldn't block his vision, especially not his murderous gaze.

"How many times is this?! Tony Stark?!" Loki hammered the ground with his fist and said, "Can your damn industrial trash only use such despicable means to ambush a god?!"

Shiler stepped forward to help Loki up and said, "If you could come here in a female form, maybe you wouldn't have taken that hit. After all, our Iron Man is always quite gentlemanly when facing beautiful ladies."

Unexpectedly, Loki sighed deeply and said, "I have to avoid that recently. Thor is getting married, but I don't know where the rumors came from, insisting that Helen is the child born to me and Thor."

"I've been considering whether to go find Hela and invite her to attend the wedding of the King of Asgard, but first I have to resolve this rumor. If Hela finds out that he turned into a male to chase me, but I only kept running while turning around to get entangled with Thor, I'd be dead."

Loki reached out, smoothed his black hair back, and continued, "Of course, there's also Balder. I'm thinking about whether there's a set of wording that could get him to attend the wedding in a female form, so he wouldn't end up fighting Hela. Because Frigga would definitely cry with joy for having another daughter, and when she's crying, no one can make a move, otherwise Odin would beat them until they couldn't crawl up."

Shiler opened his mouth, just about to evaluate the mess in the Asgard family with an unfriendly attitude, when Batman said, "Norse mythology is also like this, so I'm relieved."

"What do you mean?"

"You can go ask the Diana in your universe. If nothing goes wrong, in the next few years, she will either be adjusting the conflicts in her original family or be on the way to adjusting family conflicts. The situation on Mount Olympus is even worse than this."

Loki sighed and continued, "Oh, right, there's also Sylvie and other Lokis, as well as members of the Time Variance Authority; they are all invitees."

"Sylvie wants to bring her sister and wants to use the Time Variance Authority's channel, but the female Thor in their world knows that the Time Variance Authority captured her sister and is simply unwilling to compromise."

"Crocodile Loki is easy to handle, but the problem is, we originally planned to let it wear a dress to be a bridesmaid, but Frigga feels that such a small crocodile would be better as a bouquet. I'm not sure what Crocodile Loki thinks about this."

"Old Loki is the only Loki who replied to my invitation seriously. He has already returned to his world. He said he would like to come, but unfortunately, he can't beat the Thor in his original universe who has already entered old age. He still has over 1,000 years of solitary confinement to serve, and asked me if I have a way to fish him out..."

"Thor sent a diplomatic message to that Asgard, generally saying that they would exchange information about the World Tree in return for Old Loki coming to observe the ceremony..."

"President Loki has no time to come; he has to deal with the next general election. According to him, his opponent is a real estate developer full of lies, and the campaign slogan is 'Make America Great Again.' It's very difficult to deal with, so it will take some time."

"Viking Loki hasn't left yet, and Tour de France Loki went back to participate in the competition, but there is also a certain probability that he will come over after winning an award."

"Other Lokis have returned to their own worlds one after another. Of course, there are also some with more serious crimes who still have to serve time in the Time Variance Authority prison. It just depends on whether the Asgard in their universe has the intention to bail them out..."

"I take back what I said earlier," Batman's voice sounded again. "If you count parallel universes, your place is still more chaotic."

"But don't forget..." Shiler said gloatingly, "Your world also has parallel universes."

"Earth doesn't need another Mount Olympus." Batman's tone was very cold.

"What if they insist on coming?"

"Move the Earth away."

Loki paced in the room, muttering about the situation in Asgard, especially the various aspects of the King's wedding he was preparing for recently.

It was clear that this would be a grand event for Asgard. Not only would the interstellar civilizations of this universe come to manage it, but there were also members of Asgard from other universes contacted by the Time Variance Authority. Even an Odin from an animal universe would come in person. This matter sounded lively but was troublesome to handle.

"Actually, I have a more magnificent concept..." Loki also tapped his temple lightly with his finger, signaling that he was thinking. He put one hand on his waist and made various gestures, explaining:

"We need an opportunity to showcase the progress made by the civilizations of the Nine Realms in our universe. There is no doubt that every one of our civilizations and races has made progress, and it is very great progress."

Loki pinched his fingers together, waved them in mid-air, and said, "We can completely hold a huge expo! That's right, using Asgard and the King's wedding as a stage, inviting guests from all walks of life to visit unprecedented progress in technology, humanities, and art..."

As soon as the word "expo" came out, Shiler knew what Loki was going to say, so he also smiled knowingly and said:

"Especially those lost lambs in the multiverse who don't know where the future of their civilization and race lies. And these advances we have made, especially certain technologies, products, and membership packages, will surely be able to illuminate the path for them in the dark like a lighthouse."

Speaking of this, the two revealed a tacit smile. Stark, who was on the side, really couldn't watch anymore. He said, "Can you guys not describe such a magnificent event like those fake and empty expos specifically used to cheat investors out of money?"

"Seriously, Tony!" Shiler acted as if he had just discovered Stark was there. He revealed a surprised expression, turned his head to size Stark up and down, and said, "Are you planning to perform the new progress you've made in materials science to all the interstellar civilizations and multiverse members who come to observe the ceremony in such a magnificent event?"

Stark turned to look at the restless, disobedient suit parts on the armor display rack and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

So, Shiler added fuel to the fire. He said, "If we have this concept and want to put it into practice, we must first know what technologies are worth taking out to display."

"Tony, you have to know that the three major empires of the universe are coming to observe the ceremony. Their technology is extremely advanced, and each has its own strengths. Aren't you greedy for the super-giant portals of the Shi'ar Empire with their amazing daily throughput? Aren't you interested in the planetary warships of the Kree Empire? Don't you have any intentions for the star sector defense shields of the Skrull Empire?"

Just as Stark was about to open his mouth to speak, Shiler interrupted him and stared at him with burning eyes, saying, "This kind of trump-card technology, even the tip of the iceberg, isn't that easy to get."

"Humans are a famous fair and just existence in the universe. We will never use those shameless means to cheat or sneak attack, so establishing technical cooperation is naturally the best way..."

"But if you want to impress these old interstellar civilizations, you can't do it without some real skills. Seriously, Iron Man, it's time to let us lightbulb-changing players who have been kept in the dark by you see the true Iron Empire, right?"

"You..." Stark looked at Shiler's knowing gaze suspiciously. He looked left and right, then sized him up and down, as if looking for surveillance or a wiretap.

Shiler walked in front of him, crossed his arms, and looked at him with a smiling gaze, saying, "Do you really think I would believe that after you became the Iron Demon God, you still spend your days spinning around these individual armors without any more magnificent concepts?"

"I..." Stark hesitated, but clearly still didn't want to say. After a while, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Fine, Charles was right; this matter couldn't be hidden from you."

"But I won't tell you the specific details. Otherwise, you would definitely worry about everything. You want to make it incomparably perfect. Shiler, I know you too well. You want to add firewood to every pile of flames to make them burn more vigorously, regardless of whether the firewood is stained with your blood!"

"You are shockingly greedy, so I understood long ago that I can't just treat you as a friend; I also have to guard against you like an enemy, to prevent you from throwing yourself in as a piece of firewood one day, and we wouldn't even be able to rescue your corpse."

Stark tilted his head slightly and looked at Shiler with a proud expression, saying, "We do have some plans, but as long as I don't say it, you definitely won't be able to figure it out."

"Oh oh oh!" Stark suddenly made some strange noises and then said, "You heard me say Charles's name just now, so you think you can get some information from him, or if that doesn't work, go fool Magneto. But in fact, they don't know the core part either. Only I know this!"

"It seems you don't intend to tell me?" Shiler's smile diminished slightly. He snorted coldly and said, "Is the most genius Iron Man in the universe running out of tricks?"

"Don't try that on me!" Stark turned back to debug the suit and said without looking back, "Do you think I'm still the me from before? You can just list a non-existent enemy to provoke me, and that will force me to work without sleep and produce more amazing research results?"

"I already said, Iron Man has moved forward, friend!" Stark turned his face and made a face.

"Okay, as you can see, Batman, this moron didn't refute me when I said he was the most genius genius in the universe. And what is your evaluation of this?"

"Provocation doesn't work on me," Batman's tone was still very calm. He turned his head to look at Greed sitting beside him and said, "Yes, he is the most genius genius in this universe. His brain is full of amazing wisdom, and his research results are not behind anyone else's."

"But you still have confidence that you have a way to deal with him," Shiler said, still smiling. "After all, you've dealt with quite a few smart people."

"Yes, whether it's Luthor or Brainiac, they all think they are the smartest people in the universe, but being smart doesn't mean having no weaknesses."

"Then where do you think Iron Man's weakness lies?"

As soon as Greed's question landed, he saw Batman staring at him with an increasingly deep gaze.

Greed instinctively leaned back, wanting to get further away from Batman. Sure enough, Batman said in that low and dark tone:

"I'll have a fight with you here, making you unable to float up to control the body, fainting on the spot, unconscious, and diagnosed as a vegetative person. This most genius genius in the universe will kneel on the ground and cry."

"Just saying it is enough; no need to put it into practice."

Greed leaned back again. The darkness surging on Batman's body indicated that this wasn't just a plan; Batman wanted to find an opportunity to put it into practice.

"Why do you have such great hostility toward me?" Greed was a bit confused. He spread his hands and said, "I didn't do anything to you, did I?"

But Batman still stared at him and said slowly, "You closed the door of the Thinking Tower, so Arrogance's special ability didn't have time to save him, and then he died, and I died too."

"You actually want to blame the terrible result of the struggle between two lunatics on me?!" Greed asked in disbelief, "You wouldn't be trying to say that you also have some soul resonance with Arrogance in terms of being petty and holding grudges, would you?"

"Otherwise?"

Another affirmative sentence. ===== CHAPTER 1273 =====
