American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander.

Chapter 445: Burning Los Angeles

Happy was originally planning to go back to the group to pick up Pepper, because Pepper needed to push the Stark Group's business to Los Angeles to cooperate with Tony's subsequent actions.

After the New York incident, Tony specially added a series of projects for Stark Group responsible for post-disaster reconstruction and building repairs.

This plan had just been launched not long ago, and Tony had originally planned to pay off the debt and do some charity to get rid of the damn smell of an arms dealer on him.

But sometimes, even if you don’t want to make money, God will chase you and feed you.

Tony's new plan had just been launched when it suddenly caught the trend.

The big incident that Hydra created added a whole new clientele across the United States to Tony's new project.

The work in New York is not over yet. As a group of superheroes take action in cities such as Los Angeles and Chicago, subsequent cities will also need Tony's post-disaster reconstruction company to take action.

This is what Pepper is mainly busy with now. She needs to rush to the airport as soon as possible and go to Chicago, Los Angeles and other places under the protection of several Jarvis machines.

result……

Let’s just say, sometimes, even if you don’t want to make money, God will chase you and give you food.

Happy had just turned the corner and was about to head back to the main road of the group.

As a result, he was hit by a speeding car that ran a red light!
The car was driving very fast. Just by listening to the sound of the brakes, one could tell that it was going at least 180 miles per hour.

This speed is consistent with the value of the sports car.

But a sports car is still a sports car after all. In front of Happy's special Rolls-Royce with full bulletproof capabilities, an ordinary sports car is undoubtedly like an egg against a stone.

Happy only felt that the car slid sideways for a distance, and he himself was swayed and dizzy for a moment due to the sudden bump.

The front trunk of the sports car had disappeared, and the person in the driver's seat fell heavily on the steering wheel and dashboard, and lost consciousness in an instant.

"Wow!"

After Happy woke up from his dizziness, he got out of the car vigilantly with a pistol in hand and walked to the side of the sports car.

After making sure that no aliens or robots emerged from the car to continue chasing him, Happy quickly and with great effort pulled open the door of the tattered sports car and carried out Strange, who had turned into a bloody man.

At the same time, in the top floor laboratory of Stark Group.

Downton looked at the floor and glanced through it at Strange's miserable condition.

Then he rolled his eyes at Strange and laughed.

"Don't tell me, don't tell me, you control the speed very steadily.

If this speed had increased by a few more miles per hour, you would have died instantly.

If the speed was a few miles slower, it would have been enough to break both of your hands!

On the contrary, now the speed is just right, neither too hot nor too cold.

"Except for your two broken hands, your other organs are fine. You are actually suitable to be a mathematician. You can have such calculation ability even when you are drunk. That's great!"

“Haha, Mr. Tang, please stop praising me.

Don’t drink and drive, and don’t drive after drinking. At this time, I also had the foundation of a hero, which is love.

But at this moment, apart from that little bit of love, all I have left is full of arrogance and disregard for the rules.

It’s not a good thing, but a good disaster can help me see myself and the world around me more clearly.”

The Sorcerer Supreme responded, then raised his glass and clinked it with Donton.

After swallowing the wine, Downton nodded to Strange and said.

"Do you think the younger you can guess that it was you who did it?"

Hearing this, Strange smiled slightly and responded.

“So what if you guessed it? I can create a car accident caused by my own drunk driving, but I can’t create a human accident that would cause me to be abandoned by the whole world because I lost my core technology.

Strange may hate me now because I brought a great tragedy to his life.

But the tragedy that followed was not caused by me.

That feeling of being gradually forgotten by the whole world after losing your core technology.

The pain of not being able to get back what you once had even if you spend all your wealth.

The kind of helplessness that comes from having your pride trampled underfoot but also being unwilling to be sympathized with.

There is also the ability to no longer have the pride of the past, and instead learn to empathize with every poor person from the perspective of the sympathized.

See, a complete disaster can make me lose a lot, but it can also make me gain more again.

And what I got back now seems much better to me than what I lost.

What's more, all of this is a gift I give to myself, isn't it?

Even if I hold a grudge, how could I hold a grudge against my future self who lives a more satisfying life? "

After he finished speaking, the Supreme Sorcerer put down his empty wine glass.

He stood up from his chair and drew a circle with his hand.

"It's time for me to go, Mr. Tang. Although witnessing this era is a kind of fun for me, I still need to endure loneliness and solitude.

The Lord of Dimensions loves the fun in me the most, which makes my mind more vulnerable to holes.

Only courage and hope are the weapons that humans have to fight against other dimensions, and happiness is just a bonus.

Finally, I wish you a happy trip. As long as you don't want to destroy the world, I welcome you to visit our universe, just like my teacher once welcomed you. "

With that, Strange strode into the portal.

This portal has long proved its extraordinaryness. Not only can it reach any corner of the universe, it can even pass through the gaps between different universes, allowing characters from multiple parallel universes to meet each other.

Seeing Strange disappear in the aperture, Lex stopped what he was doing and squinted towards the place where the aperture dissipated.

After a moment, he whispered to Downton.

“Don, do you think it’s possible to combine magic with technology?

If so, can I seek help from Zatanna or other wizards to create a suit of armor with magical powers?

Isn't the technology of enchanting items very common in games? Can we enchant our armor?"

"Yes, of course."

Donton answered Lex's question simply.

“It’s just an enchantment, Zatanna will be fine with it, but I don’t think the level of that magic is too high.

Because things with high magical powers are generally called artifacts by magicians.

But to be honest, those so-called artifacts often do not possess powerful magical abilities, but rather certain specific magical functions that are extremely high-end and difficult to stop.

And that kind of artifact is often not derived from enchantment, but from a series of unclear things such as storytelling and sacredness. "

Having said that, Donton drank the wine in his hand in one gulp.

He just put down the bottle of wine and couldn't help but complain.

"Damn it, today was pretty interesting. Not only did I witness the forced birth of Spider-Woman, but I also saw her ruining her boyfriend's life.

However, we can't let this little brat Peter be sent to the hospital like this.

I was trying to date his aunt, but when I sent her child out to play, the child broke bones all over his body. Isn't this a slap in my face?"

"what?"

While Donton was speaking, Gwen was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red with embarrassment.

"Peter...he's not some little boyfriend!"

"Yeah, yeah, yes, he's not a boyfriend. I hope you can still tell me this in ten years. As for now, little girl, I'll bring Peter back for treatment right away so that this brat won't have to stay in the hospital any longer.

But let's make it clear in advance, after I heal Peter, you have to be careful with your hands and don't tear Peter apart and crush him again~

Because when you tore it apart and crushed it, you really tore it apart and crushed it, haha~"

After he finished speaking, Donton rubbed Gwen's head heavily.

Although in the Avengers movie, Peter's performance, at first glance, is only at the level of Captain America.

But the reality is that Captain America can't even pull a helicopter, but Spider-Man can intercept high-speed trains and even pull a 10,000-ton ferry with his bare hands.

Although Spider-Man couldn't last long in that situation, he could at least get his strength to that level.

In other words, a hydraulic press has only so much strength. If Spider-Man doesn't control his hands and feet well, it would be even more terrifying than a hydraulic press!

After hearing what Donton said, Gweno nodded dejectedly.

When she thought of Peter's miserable condition, she felt really guilty. She had just woken up and didn't understand how powerful she was at all.

Seeing Gwen nod, Donton pinched her cheeks and squeezed away all the depression on her face.

Then, Donton raised his hand and grabbed it.

Buzz buzz! ! !

Jarvis, who was flying, was immediately pulled out of the air by Downton.

Seeing the laboratory environment again, Jarvis was stunned for a moment, then quickly spoke to Downton.

“Mr. Tang, I haven’t had time to arrange treatment for Peter yet, what do you mean?”

As he asked, Jarvis looked at Peter Parker who was still wailing in his arms.

In the distance, Lex couldn't help but rub his ears.

"Tang, I'm busy. Can you make the screaming stop quickly?"

Although Lex is rather indifferent, Peter is a human cub after all, so Lex urges Downton to treat Peter quickly in his own way.

Urged by Lex, Donton nodded and continued to grab from the air.

swoosh~
Zatanna, who had not had time to put on her pants, appeared in Donton's hands wearing only a set of underwear and stockings, with a confused look on her face.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

At this moment, Zatanna's scream scared Peter's scream back.

Seeing Zatanna screaming non-stop, Donton reached out his hand.

“Ahhhh… Yue?!!”

Zatanna couldn't help but dry heave because Donton put his finger down her throat!!!
At this moment, Zatanna's screaming stopped, and Donton patted her plump buttocks and said.

"Why are you yelling? Aren't you almost done with your swimsuit?

Let me see, you're still wearing safety pants, damn, who the hell invented that shit?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Donton put his arm around Zatanna's thin shoulders, rubbed her skin, then pointed at Peter and said to Zatanna.

"Instead of wasting time yelling, why not help me cure this little devil.

Hurry up, I'll take you back after I finish my work."

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!"

After listening to Downton's request, Zatanna hummed several times in dissatisfaction before she took action to restore Peter, who had fainted several times due to severe pain.

After Peter stood up in confusion, Zatanna uneasily pushed Downton's hand that was taking advantage of her and said dissatisfiedly.

“Don, what I’m wearing is not a swimsuit, but underwear!

Do you think a girl can be seen in her underwear by others? "

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Donton shook his head in amusement.

"What a joke, do you think anyone here would be interested in your two ounces of meat besides me?

So what if Jarvis saw it? Would you care about being photographed in your underwear by a cell phone camera?
As for the others, besides the two little brats, there's Lex, but do you think Lex would like to see this little thing of yours?"

"indeed!"

Lex at the side followed closely and nodded heavily.

"Compared to you, I like myself more, and only myself.

The so-called sexual impulses are nothing more than the effects of hormones. I have my own pursuits, so I will never let my hormones control my mind. "

After he finished speaking, Lex snorted disdainfully and continued with his experiment.

Zatanna glared at Lex unhappily and asked.

"So you're making fun of Dom because he's also the hormone-controlled idiot you're talking about?"

"Tang and I are different. Tang's mission is to be the most authentic human being. Pursuing power and venting emotions are what normal people should do. Tang has done a good job, hasn't he?
As for me, I'm not a normal person. If you think about it carefully, you will find that both Bruce and I have some mental illnesses.

Even Clark has his own problems, and his problems are caused by his adoptive father who would rather die than let Clark save him.

Sometimes I feel that Superman has his current personality because he is paying off a debt to his younger self.

He could never save his father, so he tried his best to save everyone he saw. This was simply the shadow of his childhood at work.

As for Bruce, his illness came from his biological parents, Clark's problems came from his adoptive parents, and my problems came from my desire to lead evolution and become the spiritual parent of all future humans.

You see, men’s problems are often related to their parents, aren’t they?”

After saying that, Lex ignored the angry Zha and continued with his work.

Seeing that Lex was so shameless, Zatanna had no choice but to be sent back by Downton.

After Zack left, Downton comforted the two little kids for a while, and then took them back to the exhibition hall for another round of play.

But just as Downton was taking the two children to visit the exhibition hall and was preparing to ask for compensation from the Osborne Group on behalf of Stacey's family and Aunt May.

A phone call suddenly came into his watch again.

After Donton answered the call with interest, Bruce's slightly fluctuating voice came from the phone.

"Tang, something big happened in Los Angeles, I'm afraid I need your help!"

"Oh? What happened in Los Angeles? Has an Aids outbreak hit Hollywood and the entire entertainment industry?"

Donton made a casual joke, which earned him anxious words from Bruce.

“No kidding, Don, there’s something really wrong in Los Angeles!
After I took out the head of Hydra in Los Angeles, somehow, Los Angeles caught on fire!

The wind happened to be very strong today, and the flames have ignited a full third of Los Angeles, and the fire is still spreading!

If this continues, I'm afraid the entire Los Angeles will fall!"

"what?"

Downton was really stunned, but he was only surprised for a moment, then he quickly explained to Bruce.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. I didn't start the fire!"

“I didn’t say you set the fire, damn it, I just wanted to ask if you had any solution!
I have asked Clark before you, hoping he can help put out the fire.

But even if he blew until his face turned red, he couldn't blow out a cold breath!"
