Chapter 4686: X-Royalty: Annihilation (Part 12)

Stark reached out a hand to block Spider-Man, who was pouncing on him, but he forgot that this was the Spider-Man of the main universe, not the Peter who had already lost his spider abilities. This block not only failed to stop him but almost broke his arm.

The Spider-Man of the main universe pounced him to the ground, then scrambled up in a flurry, helped Stark up, and said apologetically: "Sorry, Mr. Stark, I forgot you weren't wearing your armor. You... would you like to put it on?"

Stark sighed helplessly but still put on the nano-armor. Spider-Man watched the nano-armor without blinking, but he hadn't forgotten the main business, saying anxiously: "Tony Stark and Stephen Strange from our universe want to kill you!"

"And you just came to tip me off like this?"

"Of course," Spider-Man said.

"But they are your teammates."

"Whoever does good things is my teammate, and whoever does bad things is my enemy," Spider-Man flipped and hung from the beam, hanging upside down, saying, "It's not that Tony Stark is Iron Man, but the superhero who wears the armor to save New York is Iron Man."

Stark wanted to pat Spider-Man on the shoulder, but he was hanging upside down, and there was really nowhere to start, so he walked over and sat in the chair beside him, saying: "They can't kill me."

"Of course," Spider-Man swung on his spider silk, "I often go to the Central Universe; I know how strong you are. They couldn't beat you even if they added up. But, what if they sneak attack you while you're doing serious business? Wouldn't that be bad?"

Spider-Man paused and continued: "They want to control the Mother Mold. I've seen the data map of that thing; it's a very powerful superweapon, not just targeting mutants, but causing very serious damage to any life. They want to control the Mother Mold to threaten Earth and also want to use it to sneak attack you."

"I was just wanting them to do that," Stark said. "I was the one controlling the outer defense system, discovered the drone of the Iron Man of the main universe, shot it down, left the wreckage there, and let S. H. I. E. L. D. discover it."

"Why would you do that?" Spider-Man thought for a moment and said, "Is it to sow discord? To make the local Avengers dislike us?"

Stark shook his head and said: "Do you dare to say that the local Avengers didn't want to control the Mother Mold?"

Spider-Man was slightly stunned, and Stark continued: "I am also Tony Stark; I know very well what Tony Stark would think. Every Stark would feel that he has a chance to compete and also feel that such a powerful weapon is naturally better in his own hands."

"You mean the Iron Man of this universe also wants the Mother Mold?"

"That's right," Stark nodded. "He might also be patrolling in secret, just not discovered. This is to avoid becoming a target of public criticism; after all, on the surface, this thing is still to deal with mutants. If the mutant threat isn't removed, thinking about dividing the property will easily attract targeting from others."

"But now it's been discovered," Spider-Man said.

"That's right, this is a signal," Stark nodded. "The Stark Group possesses a high level of technology; if they have already moved their hands on the Orchis factory in advance, the probability of getting the Mother Mold later will greatly increase, and it can even be said that it's already in the bag. Then what will other forces think?"

"Then they have to grab it quickly!" Spider-Man said, "The technology isn't as good as others, and they started late; if they don't grab it, they won't be able to grab it!"

Stark nodded again and said: "That's exactly it. Following the evidence of the drones, all forces will soon discover that Iron Man has long had his eye on the Mother Mold. If Iron Man is determined to grab it, others might not be his match, but they are unwilling to hand over such a powerful thing to Iron Man, just like the Arc Reactor and armor in the past. So they will also take action as soon as possible, without even being able to care whether the mutant threat is completely removed."

"Then in that case, the mutants can catch their breath," Spider-Man said.

"But that's not all," Stark stood up again and said, "you go back first, don't say you've been here. If they ask you what you think, just say you hold an opposing opinion. Don't clash with them, and don't think about making trouble in secret; it'll be troublesome if you're discovered."

"I know," Spider-Man said. Then he sighed and said, "Actually, since the Zero Ultron incident, I've had doubts about the meaning of the Avengers' existence. They seem to have forgotten their original intention."

"They are just too young," Stark said. "Experience a few more things, and they will naturally get better."

"Why?" Spider-Man said, "Experience a few more disasters, and the bad guys will become good?"

"No, experience a few more disasters, and they will understand that being a good person is much easier than being a bad person."

After Spider-Man left, Shiler returned. He looked at Stark and said: "How was it? What was the reaction over there?"

"They're about to have a civil war," Stark laughed. He shrugged and said, "Some people want to kill me, others oppose it. However, the problem with the Orchis factory should be solved soon."

United Nations Headquarters, UN General Assembly Hall. 8:00 AM.

Sebastian, wearing a suit, stood alone in front of the glass curtain wall. He didn't want to talk to anyone because he didn't want to humiliate himself. Magneto had already told him that he was here to be scolded this time. Those people wouldn't give him half a good look and might even point at his nose and scold him.

Sebastian wasn't someone to be trifled with either, but the premise was that being fierce could bring him benefits. The fact was that acting like a grandson now could bring him more benefits than creating a terrorist attack, so he wasn't unwilling to accompany them with a smile.

Magneto promised him that he could help him return to the Hellfire Club. In fact, this was quite difficult, because that woman, the White Queen, was a lunatic, and a lunatic with ability. She had developed the Hellfire Club into a multinational group and had many powerful political allies; relying on Sebastian alone, it was impossible to return to the group.

Even Magneto's violent means couldn't help Sebastian return. However, if utopia was established, Magneto could mediate, and the White Queen would also give him face. Sebastian only asked to return to the group first, and status could be discussed later.

Watching the ambassador walking toward here, Sebastian sighed and had already prepared to be scolded in his heart. As a result, the other party walked over and clinked glasses with him, sighing: "The world is really not peaceful, sir. I heard that you and the leader of the Hellfire Club, the White Queen, also had a very unpleasant falling out?"

This immediately reminded Sebastian of Magneto's instructions, which was to complain bitterly at the UN General Assembly about how the White Queen persecuted him. But in fact, without Magneto's instructions, Sebastian was also full of fire, and the true feelings didn't need to be mixed with half a performance.

He first sighed heavily, then gritted his teeth and said: "That crazy woman! The Hellfire Club was clearly created by me; she just used some small commercial means and squeezed me out by uniting the shareholders. I'll make her look good sooner or later!"

"That's really unfortunate," the ambassador sighed, "do you have the intention to return to the group?"

"I dream of going back, but what can I do? You aren't unaware that the White Queen is a powerful telepath; even I can't compete with her. Other mutant forces aren't willing to help me either, but when it comes to such an occasion, they push me out to take the blame; I don't want to, but I have no choice..."

That ambassador also scolded a few words and then said: "However, I think there should be many countries coming with goodwill today. There are many misunderstandings between us and the mutants, but this is not entirely irreconcilable. In any case, it is a reasonable demand for a wandering race to want to have a place to live..."

"Yes... wait, reasonable demand?!" Sebastian was surprised. He wondered in his heart, how did it become a reasonable demand?

At this time, another female ambassador walked over with a wine glass and said: "So you are here, sir. I'm afraid I have to talk to you about the Orchis factory before the assembly opens."

Sebastian also didn't like that factory; after all, no one would like the guillotine on the executioner's block. His expression immediately turned cold, and he said: "Ah, yes, human scientists are really amazing, being able to create such a powerful superweapon; it would be even better if it wasn't targeting mutants..."

The two ambassadors looked at each other, and the female ambassador said: "You are probably mistaken; we didn't build the Orchis factory and the Mother Mold entirely to target mutants. After all, mutants haven't caused us any real damage. Even, the home you want to build isn't in the territory explored by humans; that island originally had no owner, and first come, first served is also reasonable."

Sebastian was truly full of question marks; wasn't he supposed to be scolded? How did one or two of them think it was reasonable?

At this time, another very strong man walked over, and the two ambassadors looked at each other again, then smiled and walked away. Sebastian sized up the strong man, feeling that he didn't look like an ambassador, but more like a soldier.

"Captain Borders greets you," he clinked glasses with Sebastian and said, "I am a straightforward person, sir. You help the military seize the Orchis factory, and we won't exercise the veto power."

Sebastian opened his eyes wide: "Seize the Orchis factory? Whose is the Orchis factory now?"

"I think it's the military's, but I'm in the minority," the captain said. "From the facts, it will likely be the Stark Group's. But we cannot let such a dangerous weapon fall into the hands of Iron Man again. Aren't his iron shells enough for him to play with?"

Sebastian stuttered a bit, opened his mouth and closed it, then said: "Then you..."

Before he could finish, a blonde Slavic woman walked over and nodded to him: "Sofia, I am the Russian ambassador. Let's not beat around the bush; we will vote in favor, you help us win the Orchis factory."

"Get lost!" the captain said unhappily, "S. H. I. E. L. D. also participated in the manufacturing and provided the most important technology; this thing should be America's, what are you Russians joining in for?"

"The Russian Space Agency also contributed," that Ambassador Sofia said, "and our relationship with mutants is much better than yours."

And at this time, an Asian man walked over, who didn't look like an ambassador. Sebastian remembered that it seemed to be the leader of S. P. E. A. R.; how did he come in person?

"China will abstain," he said concisely, "but I personally think that if you are the first race to set foot on that ancient land, then you indeed enjoy the right to live there, and others cannot interfere."

"Alright, sir, listen to Britain's opinion," another ambassador walked over and said, "we won't use the veto power, and we will vote in favor. In addition, our 26 allied countries will also follow the vote. After all, mutants can also be a race friendly to us, right?"

"France is the same, sir. If that Professor is watching here, I want to say, actually it's very simple for him to want all the votes in favor. Congratulations to the mutants; I'm waiting for your power-on."

"No..." Sebastian reached out a hand to stop their argument and said, "I want to contact Krakoa, you guys wait a moment."

After speaking, he walked away and took out his phone to call Magneto, saying: "What's the situation? Erik, all five permanent members agreed!"

"What?!" Magneto was also shocked.

He held the phone and looked back, where Shiler, who was filling in medical records, looked up and revealed a smile at him.
