Chapter 544: When Will Vengeance End (Part 2)

When night fell, the light "tick-tock" of the second hand echoed in the clinic in Hell's Kitchen. On the clock face, the hour hand had already turned to nine.

At this time, Shiler had long been asleep, and only Peter and Pikachu were still playing games in the living room.

Suddenly, Peter exclaimed, startling Pikachu next to him. With a shake of his hand, the little person on the screen fell into the magma. Pikachu turned to look at Peter and asked, "What's wrong?"

Peter turned to look at the clock face next to him and said, "It's nine o'clock. I have to go up and sleep!"

Pikachu widened his eyes and looked at Peter, as if he didn't recognize him. He exaggeratedly opened his mouth wide and said, "You're going to sleep at nine?? Are you really Peter Parker? Have you been controlled by Shiler???"

"No." Peter reluctantly threw down the controller and said, "Today, Mr. Stark repeatedly emphasized to me to go to bed at nine tonight. Look, just now, he even sent me a text message asking if I was already lying in bed preparing to sleep..."

Peter handed his phone to Pikachu to look at. Pikachu saw that there was indeed a message from Stark on his text message interface. Pikachu shook his head and said, "It seems he thinks you are very lacking in fatherly love."

Peter sighed, looking back at the game console every step of the way, but finally went upstairs to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Peter turned over and slowly became sleepy. Originally, he was worried that he might not be able to sleep at such an early time, but soon, he entered dreamland.

Opening his eyes again, what Peter faced was the gaze of Stark and Charles. Both of them were full of "Child, Dad is very disappointed in you."

"You didn't go to bed on time." Stark spoke first. Peter hadn't figured out what was going on, but he instinctively explained, "No, at nine o'clock, I had already put down the controller, but my room is upstairs, so..."

"So, your performance today is considered pretty good?"

"Of course, I have never slept so early in my life. Usually, it's at least 12 o'clock..." Facing Stark's death gaze, Peter's voice became smaller and smaller.

Subsequently, he finally began to look at the surrounding environment. This was a very spacious meeting room, and outside the floor-to-ceiling window was a city full of sci-fi feel, which didn't look like Earth.

Peter was very smart and immediately reacted. He said, "Am I dreaming? Professor Charles, did you pull me over?"

"That's right, you are very smart, child. If you played less games, your brain would be brighter." Charles walked toward the conference table in the center of the room, but Peter chased after him somewhat anxiously. He said:

"Wait a minute! Professor! You have to let me go back. I need to control my body so that it can lie there properly. Otherwise..."

Charles walked straight forward. Peter looked at Stark anxiously again and said, "Mr. Stark, I told you, my body has strange instincts. If it gets out of my control, it might..."

Before he could finish speaking, Stark reached out directly, hugged Peter, and said earnestly, "You were already late, everyone is waiting for you."

"Initial Evolution"

"Peter, you are not young anymore. You also need to understand some things in the workplace. Because of your personal reasons, making colleagues waste time waiting for you is impolite."

"Besides, those instincts might just be your imagination. Relax, nothing will happen..."

Peter didn't see Stark's successful smile. He opened his mouth, feeling that he was somewhat unable to shirk, and after a long time, he could only say dejectedly, "Alright, I hope my bed is sturdy."

Several people walked over. Many people were already sitting at the conference table, including Marc, who was still somewhat confused, and Seeing Natasha, who was already skillfully smoking.

Stark walked to the table, looked around, and then said:

"Presumably, everyone here has recently been involved in a matter, and the culprit of this matter is Shiler."

"'A matter' is not very accurate." Steve said.

"The culprit is also not very accurate." Seeing Natasha said.

Stark held his breath and let it out. He hammered the table and said, "Alright, let's get straight to the point."

"Just yesterday, due to some of Shiler's operations, the congressmen were almost crying and pushed me to the position of the person in charge of the Solar System Construction Plan."

Mentioning this, Stark was very helpless. He also asked several people one after another, and finally asked Seeing Natasha, only then did he finally figure out what Shiler had done.

Simply put, Shiler let a ghost named "Ancestor-Seeking" float over the Avengers base, with billions of subsidies for "Seeking-Many," and everyone had a share of the medals.

Giving Seeing Natasha one first was very reasonable; after all, she was a Soviet agent and had merits. Giving Captain America one was also reasonable; Steve was also a World War II hero who had resisted Hitler's troops. As for Shiler himself and Marc, they were actually just fillers.

The Red Allergy of the congressmen, especially those older congressmen, was almost incurable, and Shiler just wanted to make them feel like they had been surrounded.

Then, they would discover that these people who received medals had a common enemy, and that was Stark.

Seeing Natasha had infiltrated Stark's company to steal information. In the eyes of the congressmen, Stark definitely wouldn't have a good impression of her, and the relationship between the two of them wasn't very good.

According to investigations, previously, the relationship between Iron Man and Captain America had fallen to the freezing point, and the two even fought several times, almost triggering an Avengers civil war. So, their relationship wasn't good either.

Not to mention Shiler. At the meeting of the Superhero Registration Act, he and Stark faced off face-to-face, one on the left and one on the right. If Stark and Shiler were on the same front, why did Stark jump out to refute him? It could be seen that their relationship wasn't very good either.

And the last person to receive a medal, Marc, had a fight with Stark in the sky over New York on the spot. Although this was completely the result of Shiler colluding with Khonshu and then colluding with Jake to direct, the fight was real, and everyone in New York saw it. Their relationship must also be very bad.

If you dig deeper, Stark's father, Howard, once collaborated with a Soviet scientist, but the two of them had fallen out, and even the son of that Soviet scientist had come to Stark, wanting revenge.

All these pieces of evidence together meant that Stark could simply be called an enemy of the Soviet Union.

From the perspective of the congressmen, Stark had been surrounded by communist-sympathizers led by Shiler and could only struggle to support himself. It could be said that he was a small boat constantly rocking under the red wave.

And under these circumstances, he actually hadn't compromised. What is this?!

This is the Stalingrad street lamp ornament, the Kremlin flagpole squatter, the first choice for the Father's sacrificial flag, the soulmate of Ancestor-Worship, the right of the far-right, the most right in the universe, the lone exploiter, the chosen capitalist—Tony Stark!

Thus, Stark, who should have played a left-leaning role in the Registration Act event, was kicked into the far-right camp, and was pushed to the most important position by those congressmen crying and shouting.

Even putting aside Stark's relationship with everyone, the congressmen didn't know that Stark had already become the Iron Demon God and transcended the perspective of a single universe. In their view, people cannot betray their own class. Stark is a capitalist who started by selling arms, and this point is eternal and unchangeable.

They thought that Stark was still constrained by Stark Group capital, which would make him unable to accept any ideas of fairness. This was the reason why they dared to spend so much to promote Stark.

Besides letting him get the position of the person in charge of the Solar System Construction Plan, at the same time, Iron Man's reputation improved rapidly. The result of putting great effort into public opinion warfare was that Iron Man had become the Iron Patriot, replacing Captain America and becoming the new benchmark of the American spirit.

If it were in the past, Iron Man would have immediately put on his armor and flown a few laps over New York to accept people's cheers, and then let reporters take a few handsome photos of his new armor to print and show off to Pepper.

But now, Stark only felt absurd and disgusted, because he knew that behind all this applause and flowers was a group of idiots who only limited their vision to the dregs of human civilization.

No smart person would feel happy for the cheers of a group of idiots who couldn't be more stupid. Instead, they would only feel that their approval was like saying "you are as stupid as we are."

Thinking of this, Stark at the conference table sighed deeply. He endured the feeling of gnashing his teeth, showed a fake smile, and then said, "I can sit in this position, I must thank one person, and that is Shiler. For this, I must return this favor to him."

"Then why did you let Loki defect? What exactly do you want to do?" Strange asked.

"After yesterday's UN vote, the path of joint cooperation among countries has basically been determined. But obviously, many people still focus on infighting. This is the inferiority of human nature, and it is impossible to change it in a day or two, but I plan to speed up this process." Stark's face returned to seriousness, and he continued:

"Shiler gave them some pressure, but it's still not enough. The civilization within Earth always knows itself and the enemy. Even if there is some excess, it won't exceed too much. Although the Soviet Union is strong, it is not excessive."

"Therefore, we must give these idiots who can't figure it out some absolute pressure, pressure from outside the Earth."

Charles touched his chin and said, "So, this is related to Loki's defection, right?"

"I made a deal with that... princess. She brings some suitable external enemies for Earth, and at the same time, uses Asgard as a bottom line to give human civilization a chance to train."

"Then what do you need to pay?" Strange asked.

"A favor of mine." Stark replied.

Steve just wanted to open his mouth to ask, but Strange followed Stark's train of thought and continued: "Indeed, this deal is quite fair."

"As far as I know, the change of power in Asgard is not without influence. The rule in some places in the Nine Realms has begun to become unstable. At the same time, the objects they compete with are the most developed civilizations in the interstellar space. Making friends with a single-universe-level powerhouse who can ascend to the multiverse at any time has no harm to them."

"And, there is also Ragnarok." Stark crossed his arms and said, "Of course, I can't sacrifice myself to block disaster for them, but helping out when necessary is also good for human civilization."

"In addition..." Stark added, "Once external enemies arrive, all countries will definitely focus all their attention on the external enemies. They will concentrate all their power to protect themselves and protect their positions."

"And at this time, it doesn't matter what stance Shiler is on. As long as he is human, he can produce help. In this way, he won't be stared at by those messy agents every day. That's how I return his favor."

And at this time, in the thick night of Hell's Kitchen, the sleeping Shiler turned over. What he didn't see was that a ghost-like figure suddenly walked into the dark bedroom.

At this time, in the bedroom of the Helicarrier, Seeing Natasha, who had left the dream meeting early because she wanted to smoke, habitually glanced out the window.

"Bang!

!"

Seeing Natasha opened her mouth wide, watching the roof that was thrown high and appeared outside the window. When it was thrown to the highest point, it stagnated for a moment, and then "whoosh" fell down.

Immediately after, there was another "bang." Seeing Natasha looked up again, shocked to see a bed appearing outside the window, and above the bed, Shiler, who was still maintaining his sleeping posture, clutching the quilt, and staring with wide eyes. ===== CHAPTER 545 =====
