Chapter 1852: The Madman's Journey (Thirty)

Inside the Galactus Engine, Thor drank his wine and asked Stark: "Where are we going? What's so special about that parallel universe?"

"How should I know? Nick set the route." Tony also took a sip of wine and said: "Believe it or not, the three of them must have done something bad again, and we must have worked for nothing again."

Thor laughed heartily and said: "It's not the first or second time. Anyway, I can't refuse it, so let's enjoy it."

"In fact, I am also very curious about the situation in other parallel universes. Sometimes I can hear about the situation in their universe from many Lokis who stay in Asgard, but you also know that Lokis are all liars, and no one can tell the truth from the false. I really want to go and see it. "

Natasha leaned on the bar gracefully, and used her fingers to touch the red hair on the side of her face. She looked at Tony and said, "Someone is angry because we didn't take him with us last time. But it's definitely not the richest man in the world, right?"

Stark put the glass heavily on the table with a "dang" sound, turned back to look at Natasha and said, "What's the fun of going fishing on the lake in such a cold weather? I dream that I'm lucky that I didn't go with you!"

"Oh, really? I don't know who asked Pepper to buy a lot of expensive fishing equipment, but found that he couldn't even fly the rod, so he could only ask Dr. Otto for fishing skills in private. "

"You damn agent, can't you leave me some privacy?" Stark said, staring at Natasha.

"Hasn't anyone told you that ice fishing doesn't require fishing skills?" Captain America walked over and said, "Fish will breathe through the ice holes. If you are brave, you can even catch them directly with your hands. You won't go with us because you don't know how to fish, right?"

"I can fish!" Tony raised his voice and emphasized, and then he continued, "It's because Schiller never told me, he didn't want to take me with him at all!"

"Come on, you are an adult." Schiller rolled his eyes and said, "I know what the consequences will be if I tell you. You will refuse first, then refuse, and finally be forced to do it. After arriving at the scene, you will be picky. If you can't catch fish, you will ask your mecha to buy fish in the market. If you treat everything as a competition, no one will be willing to take you to play."

Stark was speechless. Steve put his hand on his shoulder and said, "I have to admit that the scene described by Schiller is too real. I have a headache when I think about it. If you really do this, I will definitely not take you next time."

"Okay, okay . "Stark stood up from the bar stool, pointed his two fingers at the sky and said: "The great Stark is willing to compromise a little for you, but only a little. This time I will speak as little as possible, empty my brain, and look forward to filling it with your stupid remarks."

T'Challa stood behind the bar and smiled. He handed Stark another glass of wine and said: "The meaning of playing is to play, Tony, not to gain anything or to please anyone. Relax a little."

"I'm really afraid that when we arrive at that universe, it will have been destroyed." Stark lowered his arms, sighed, glanced at Nick, Schiller and Loki, and said: "Your past performance makes me feel that it is not too much to make the worst plan."

"Outdated, genius Stark." Nick snapped his fingers and said: "Look at what this is?"

He took something out of his pocket and stuffed it into Stark's hand. Stark took it and found that it was a timeline control device commonly used by the Time Administration.

Nick held up a finger and said, "Many parallel universes have experienced unexpected tragedies. A small change may have a series of effects."

"But since we are talking about traveling this time, we won't take such a heavy-handed approach to turn the tide. We can just go back to the time before the tragedy happened and reverse it. It shouldn't be difficult to install this function in the car, right?"

Stark kept pulling his chin back until wrinkles formed under his chin. He frowned and fiddled with the gadget in his hand, then said, "It will take some time to experiment. You two, follow me."

Stark shook his head at Banner and Peter, and the three of them walked into the laboratory together.

"Give us a goal, at least? What happened in the parallel universe we are going to next?" Thor asked curiously.

"A complete tragedy." Nick shrugged and looked at Natasha and asked, "You should remember when I first wanted to recruit superheroes to form the Avengers, right?"

Natasha took a sip of wine, recalled, nodded and said, "You did propose this idea at the beginning. I remember that you were driving back to SHIELD at that time. You said that superheroes should be organized to form a stronger force to deal with the terrible disasters that might come."

Nick leaned against the bar and asked T'Challa for a glass of wine. He nodded and said, "The first person I wanted to recruit was Iron Man. Although the public didn't know who Iron Man was at that time, I knew that Tony's father Howard was an old friend of ours, and it was reasonable for him to join the organization established by SHIELD."

Nick turned around, holding a wine glass and spreading his hands, saying: "The Nick Fury in the parallel universe we are going to next thought the same, but when he took Natasha to see Tony, Natasha gave Tony an injection and Tony died."

"Huh?"

Everyone present was stunned.

Thor scratched his ears with his fingers in disbelief and said: "What did you say? Tony Stark was stabbed to death by Natasha?!"

"Of course the truth is not like this, but the official investigation and test conclusion is like this." Nick shrugged and said: "Tony in that universe did not deal with palladium poisoning by himself, and refused Nick's recruitment on the grounds that he was unwell. Natasha took the needle of vitality enhancement potion and stabbed him in the neck, and the next second Iron Man died."

"Someone poisoned?" Loki narrowed his eyes and said: "The needle was replaced or the needle was highly toxic?"

"No one knows. "Nick shook his head and said, "So we are going back to this point in time, and then our Black Widow will investigate what happened and reverse this series of tragedies."

Natasha held the upper arm of one hand and raised it above her head to stretch, and moved her neck and shoulders. After putting her hand down, she fanned her ears and said, "I know I am a hard worker. Did you bring the healing potion of our universe?"

Nick took out a potion from his jacket pocket, handed it to Natasha and said, "This is the standard potion of S.H.I.E.L.D., so the appearance should be the same as that The universe is exactly the same, but our syringe is made of molten gold. The special energy attached to this material can make all toxins inactive. "

"In addition, the syringe is completely sealed. To open and replace the potion, the signatures of more than two project leaders are required. This one is brand new, and the sealing and potion activity are completely fine. It can improve Tony's physical condition to a certain extent."

"I have always been the only one who replaces other people's things." Natasha raised her eyebrows and said confidently: "It's not so easy to replace the potion from me, but I don't think this matter is so simple. , I will choose a different method. "

Not long after, Stark came out of the laboratory and said: "It's done. In fact, the Devourer Engine itself can travel through time. This is the powerful power brought by the body of the god. With the time control device, it is just more stable. I have input a certain amount of energy and can set off at any time. "

"Then let's go now." Nick nodded and said: "Our Black Widow is already ready to go."

As soon as Nick finished speaking, a white light lit up around the Devourer Engine. After the light flickered gently, the huge engine disappeared into the universe.

Suddenly, the Devourer Engine reappeared in the same familiar starry sky, but not at the familiar time. They had returned to the past of this parallel universe and were heading towards the earth.

Nick's time was just right. Nick and Natasha's car was parked in a gas station next to a highway in New Jersey. From the outside, the two were shopping in a small supermarket at the gas station.

Natasha, who got off the Devourer Engine, landed not far from the gas station. After observing for a while, she walked slowly inside.

Soon she saw another Natasha walking towards the bathroom, so she entered a cubicle in the bathroom before her.

The moment the other Natasha walked past the cubicle, Natasha rushed out and strangled her from behind with her arm.

Loki, who was teleported over, caught the other Natasha, made an OK gesture to Natasha, and teleported back to the Devourer Engine with Natasha.

Natasha slightly tidied her clothes, stayed in the bathroom for a while, and then slowly walked out to wash her hands and comb her hair in front of the mirror.

Nick poked his head out of the bathroom door and said, "Are you ready? We have an appointment with Tony at 4pm. If we are late, we will be in big trouble!"

"I know." Natasha said impatiently, "I told you that we should take a plane, but you insisted on driving. I feel like my back is going to be broken by you."

She quickly walked out and got back into Nick's car, took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and then said, "I thought about it and felt that I couldn't be so careless."

"What do you mean?"

Natasha stretched out two fingers holding a cigarette and said, "I don't object to SHIELD recruiting Tony Stark, but I always feel that it's a bit risky to give him an injection directly."

"What do you mean?" Nick asked while controlling the car to turn.

"Before I came to the United States, I had dealt with many scientists, and I know all their bad habits."

"I know that the purpose of giving him an injection is to show him that SHIELD has quite advanced technology that can solve his urgent problems, and to do him a favor to win his favor."

"But in my opinion, given Stark's arrogant personality, if you show him powerful technology, he will only think you are a frog in the well. He can do better. If you take measures to improve his physical condition, he will only think you are giving him charity and pity, and then turn around and leave in anger."

Everyone in the Devouring Engine heard this conversation from the monitor on Natasha, so their eyes fell on Stark.

Stark covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice, saying, "You don't know how angry I was when I first met Schiller."

"On the one hand, I think it's ridiculous that Pepper thinks she can solve the problem I can't solve by hiring a psychologist. What method can compare to Stark's technology."

"On the other hand, I know Pepper sees my pain and wants to help me relieve this pain, but the more I suffer, the more I feel that other people's kindness is just charity. They can't feel my pain personally, so how can they solve it? It's just a little mercy to satisfy their high-handed kindness. I hate this."

"Then you become the only one among us who doesn't object to psychological evaluation." Steve accurately exposed Stark.

Stark was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, shouting: "That's because I paid him 300 million US dollars in medical expenses in one quarter! Next quarter, it will increase by 20%!"

"I didn't say anything. If it were me, I would sit in the psychiatrist's office for 24 hours to get my money's worth."

On Earth, Natasha had already thrown the potion back to Nick on her own initiative and said: "Believe me, Nick, I have a better way to test Stark. We don't have to take such risks."

"Why didn't you say it earlier if you had a good method?"

Natasha smiled and didn't say anything. She just said in her heart: "The other me hasn't learned to fish."
