SUP Chapter 85: Return, Divine Authority!

The glow of the Infinity Stones illuminated the surroundings.

For some reason, Digital Tony had never turned off the virtual projection.

"This isn't right? Why are there only four?" Ian looked at the four stones with surprise. This didn't match the information he'd heard before about only lacking the last stone. However, after thinking for a moment, Ian immediately seemed to realize something and looked up at the sky.

This was wisdom in motion.

But not fully in motion.

Ian only saw the darkness of the virtual projection. He couldn't even see the base's ceiling, let alone reflect Galactus's body in his eyes.

"One of the stones is on the invincible Galactus, right... Although He's dead, He still agreed to let me touch Him. If you don't believe me, ask His corpse after I finish touching Him."

"I guarantee my respectable Uncle Galactus won't deny this." Ian felt he had contracted one of the seven deadly sins, greed. Digital Tony didn't deny his judgment.

Of course, Digital Tony also didn't comment on Ian's necrophilic request. "Collecting all the Infinity Stones will be when we verify whether we can succeed."

He stared at the floating Infinity Stones, as if not worried that everything might just be a grand dream.

"They're really beautiful."

Ian's eyes went straight.

Digital Tony, seeing this, directly made the four Infinity Stones float in front of Ian.

"Can these be touched?"

Ian's fingertips touched the surface of the stones. Cold, hard, without the expected occupation acquisition, which made Ian feel a tiny bit disappointed.

He also didn't experience the feeling of power flowing in.

"Could it be that my immunity in this world also prevents me from having the chance to use the Infinity Stones?" Ian sighed inwardly. He had previously guessed that Tony might want him to snap his fingers.

The result?

Apparently not?

"These stones are indeed beautiful."

Digital Tony showed no change in expression upon seeing this scene.

"They are the final Infinity Stones, and also the most powerful Infinity Stones. The collapse of the multiverse also means they're unprecedentedly close to their original form."

He just spoke softly to explain to Ian.

"I know."

Ian nodded.

About the story of the Infinity Stones coming from Nemesis, he'd heard she was among the top fifty or top hundred super-strong beings in Marvel. It was precisely because he'd heard this that Ian was now thinking about how to obtain an occupation.

Make the stones bleed?

Or what?

Ian furrowed his brow and activated his super intelligence.

Meanwhile, Digital Tony stared at Ian and simulated a tone of astonishment, "You're not excited at all? The omnipotent might that once represented everything is now being held in your... mouth?!"

"No! How can you stuff this in your mouth too?!"

This time Digital Tony's emotions were absolutely genuine.

He quickly raised his hand to pull the Infinity Stones, so the four stones that Ian had stuffed into his mouth broke through Ian's lip seal and flew out.

"I actually just wanted to test my teeth, to see if they deserve to grow in my mouth." Ian didn't tell the truth, which was quite normal.

He was afraid Digital Tony couldn't understand him.

Sometimes, if you don't push your stomach a bit, who knows if the system is hiding inside?

"Let me bite once more?"

Unwilling to give up, Ian looked at Digital Tony tentatively.

This actually wouldn't affect this world. He didn't need to actually digest and absorb to obtain occupations. After pulling it out and washing it, no one could tell anything was wrong.

The Infinity Stones might even be as fresh as newly made.

"..."

Faced with Ian's proposal, Digital Tony was left speechless and shook his head frantically.

Honestly, if he hadn't discovered he lacked authority in this area, he really wanted to allocate some computing power to make targeted predictions about Ian's behavioral patterns.

"I can satisfy any other request you have, but this is absolutely not allowed." Digital Tony directly took away the Infinity Stones and canceled the surrounding dark projection. The hall busy with many researchers reappeared, these people seeming completely unaware of what conversations had taken place in the holographic projection.

"Alright."

Ian nodded with slight regret. He ultimately couldn't find a successful way to make Nemesis's power form a new occupation and become great within himself again.

With melancholy in his heart, Ian grabbed a bag of snacks from a researcher's desk. The researcher glanced at him and protected their snack box, preventing Ian from successfully grabbing a second bag.

"You're even guarding against a good person like me?"

The young man felt the other's wariness, and his mood became even more melancholy. He angrily threw down the Franklin he had already pulled out, but saw the researcher still staring at him helplessly.

"Do you think I can find a place to spend money with Earth looking like this ghost town?"

The researcher still guarded their food.

"..."

This time it was probably Ian's turn to be speechless.

"Perhaps you could use it to wipe your butt? Trust me, it's definitely better than paper. Your whole butt would be full of guilt." Genius as he was, he could ultimately only find such a reluctant reason.

"Is there a possibility that my butt doesn't need wiping at all, because I'm using a daily disposable body?" The researcher stared at Ian with their big eyes.

Big eyes staring at small eyes.

After a moment, speechless Ian couldn't think of a response for a long time.

Fortunately, Digital Tony rescued him.

"Greedy little brat, don't make things difficult for Dr. Zhao Helen anymore. Let's talk about whether you have any other requests?" Digital Tony gave Ian a good way out.

Ian pretended to be very busy and quickly ran back.

"Just let me touch the Sentry and Omni-Man." Ian was also someone who knew contentment, so he smoothly and quietly added another name to reach his level of satisfaction.

"Fine."

Digital Tony seemed quite agreeable.

"Your time is up."

He spoke very abruptly.

Then he turned and signaled for researchers to return the box containing the demon head to Ian.

"Uh..."

Ian had just taken the box.

"Dong~~~~"

The bell of return immediately rang.

Watching Ian's body disappear from the base, Betty, the scientist Ian had first encountered, couldn't help but walk over from the corner where she had been observing everything.

"Tony, he just comes like this again and again, and mysteriously disappears again and again. No one knows what purpose he holds. We haven't even figured out who he is or where he comes from."

"This is really dangerous for us... especially at a time like this." Betty looked worried. Regarding uncertain factors, she believed Tony should be prepared.

Can't blame Betty for being suspicious.

After all, this world shouldn't have pure living people and demons.

"Miss Ross, I no longer possess curiosity, so I don't need to know where he comes from, nor do I need to know what his purpose is for appearing and disappearing repeatedly."

"I only need to try my best to satisfy his requests." Digital Tony's holographic projection returned to the screen, with streams of data silently shuttling across his face.

"Why? What exactly is the situation between you and him? You didn't even agree when I wanted to analyze the demon he brought..." Betty furrowed her brow with a confused gaze.

She knew Ian had high-level clearance for this base, but she hadn't expected the clearance to be this high. Tony's sole purpose for existing should be to push the world toward restart!

"I am not the complete Tony Stark, so I cannot give you a definitive answer. You only need to understand that in this universe, that boy also possesses the highest authority."

The air seemed to freeze.

After a pause, Tony spoke again.

"Higher than me, higher than you, higher than this base, higher than... everything." Tony's voice echoed in the spacious hall, and Betty's face gradually turned pale.

She was full of extreme shock and horror.

The savior's words made this scientist feel only terror upon deeper thought.
