American Comic Dimensional Trading Device

However, the establishment of the kingdom is still in the preparatory stage, and it should take another year or two before it is actually established, so there is no rush.

Right now, the most important thing is Josie and Margot's wedding.

Leisurely days always pass quickly.

Before we knew it, the wedding day arrived.

Under the auspices of Pope Pius XII and more than 3,000 guests, Josie and Margot successfully completed their vows and the entire wedding ceremony, officially becoming husband and wife.

Mike and Carol, the two adorable children, naturally became flower girls and page boys at their parents' wedding.

Josie initially extended an invitation to Pius XII tentatively, without much hope that he would not come; if he did not come, she would simply have the Austrian bishop preside over the ceremony.

After all, the title of Pope is still worth some money.

Unexpectedly, the pope was very accommodating and immediately agreed.

As for the idea that Catholics shouldn't have sex before marriage, this was selectively ignored by all the guests, including Pius XII, who officiated at the wedding.

In any case, having children out of wedlock is not uncommon among European royalty and nobility who still adhere to Catholicism.

For the entire wedding ceremony, Josie had pre-ordered a batch of advanced digital video equipment from Yuri, ensuring that this most important moment in their lives was fully recorded.

"Hmm, these things are really good, keep it up, Josie!" In a corner of the wedding venue, a figure dressed in a ginger-yellow robe, standing out from the other guests, watched the couple exchanging vows while stuffing pastries from the table into his mouth and muttering to himself.

However, it seems that no one can see her actions.

Who else could this person be but the Ancient One?

..............................

After the wedding, the guests marveled at its perfection and luxury, then left Shiwang to go back to their own homes.

As for Josie and Margot, who are the main characters, they naturally won't leave so soon. They've come all the way to Europe, so how could they not stay longer?

And after getting married, a honeymoon is a must—although before the wedding, the two had already been inseparable for almost two months, including the half-month on the cruise ship and the month at Neuschwanstein Castle.

But if you're not married, it doesn't count, and that makes sense.

What Josie didn't expect was that this honeymoon would have to be stopped halfway through.

There's no way around it; with Josie working so hard, it would be a real shame if she didn't bear fruit.

Yes, Margot is pregnant again.

Unlike in the United States, where outdated biological pregnancy tests were still required, in Neuschwanstein Castle, Josie was specially equipped with a batch of advanced medical equipment provided by Yuri.

So Margot only felt slightly nauseous, and then a checkup revealed the cause.

I'm over a month pregnant.

In eight months, the Kahn family will welcome a new member.

This is certainly something to celebrate.

However, this day was originally a day worth celebrating for Josie.

That's the dimensional trading system, and it's finally time for its annual refresh.

So this is a double celebration!

That evening, after shooing the two little rascals back to their room and putting his wife to sleep, Josie once again locked himself in his study.

"So what kind of world will it be this time?" Josie murmured, looking at the system screen in front of her with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.

Soon, the scene changed, and what appeared in Josh's view was a very modern, even somewhat futuristic, large office.

This sight immediately gave Josie a jolt; it was clearly a high-tech world.

Soon, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie appeared on the screen, which further confirmed Josh's judgment.

“A dimensional trading device? If I remember correctly, today isn’t April Fool’s Day!” The middle-aged man opposite her leaned back in his large office chair, frowning as he looked at Josie.

“Of course not, today is your lucky day… I’m Josh Kahn, what’s your name?” Josh asked with a businesslike smile.

"Lawrence Robertson, so what can this Mr. Kahn from another dimension offer me through this trading device?" the middle-aged man replied with a similarly businesslike smile.

Without a doubt, the person opposite was also a businessman, and Josh also felt that the person looked slightly familiar.

“No need to rush, Mr. Robertson. Let’s first determine some basic information. Is your location Earth?” Josie asked calmly.

"Of course, that's right. If you ask that, does that mean your side is also Earth?" Lawrence was slightly surprised by Josie's words and immediately asked back.

“That’s right, this is indeed Earth, but we should be in a different era, or even have a different history… Is your place in the 21st century?” Josie nodded.

“That’s right, it’s 2035 here,” Lawrence confirmed. “Where’s Mr. Kahn?”

“1948!” Josie said with a smile, referring to the era she lived in.

“Oh, I think we’ll have a lot in common!” Lawrence’s eyes lit up when he heard Josie’s words.

As the world's richest man, Lawrence is certainly not an easy person to deal with.

He immediately understood how advantageous the time difference between the two worlds would be for him.

Unfortunately, Josie's next action made his eyes widen in surprise.

Josie simply raised his hand, and with a loud bang, a huge fireball appeared in his hand.

Chapter 189 suggests you go back and check out the comic.

Lawrence Robertson rubbed his eyes as he watched the fireball emanating from Josie's hand on the other end of the video.

Holographic imaging technology? No, impossible! Unless Josie is lying, and the era he lives in is not 1948 at all... How could there be holographic imaging technology in 1948?

"Sir! Your emotions seem somewhat unstable, and you appear to be talking to someone, but I haven't detected anyone's presence or communication connection. Has something happened?" Just as Lawrence was filled with astonishment, a gentle female voice rang out in his office.

"No, Wikipedia, I'm fine. Turn off your surveillance and delete all records related to what just happened from the moment I started speaking." Upon hearing this voice, Lawrence was startled and immediately gave the order.

"Yes, sir, as you wish!" After the voice answered, it fell silent.

"Who are you talking to? Is there anyone else with you?" Josie, who was on the other end of the trading device, also heard what "Wiki" said and immediately frowned as she asked Lawrence.

Although the system exists in a way that other people or things cannot perceive, if there are other people or things around a trader, the trader on the other side can see and hear them.

This is why Chae Rim was able to show him the live broadcast of The Legend of the Gods and Demons before.

“Sorry, Mr. Kahn, that’s just artificial intelligence, don’t worry about it… Um, do you know the concept of artificial intelligence? It’s a computer… um, a very advanced computer,” Lawrence explained.

“Mr. Lawrence, there’s no need to explain so clearly. Although I live in an era earlier than you, you should have already seen that the world I live in is not a simple one… Let me put it this way, your world has comics, right? Superman? Spider-Man? Iron Man? Captain America?” Josie asked tentatively, a sudden thought flashing through her mind. An AI named Wiki? Could it be…

“Oh, of course, DC, Marvel, they’ve always been very popular… wait, Mr. Kahn, you’re not going to tell me that the world you live in… exists like theirs, are you? No… if I remember correctly, Superman and Captain America appeared very early, probably before World War II, but Spider-Man and Iron Man, those are characters from the 1960s!” Lawrence looked at Josie, swallowed hard, and thought of a possibility.

"Oh, so Mr. Lawrence reads comics too, and seems to know quite a bit about them!" Josie said, somewhat surprised.

"Everyone has their own childhood memories, right? Mr. Kahn, could it be that you..." Lawrence nodded and said. Although he was the richest man in the world, did that stop him from reading comics when he was a child? No, it didn't. In fact, why did he invest so heavily in robots? Because he also had the dream of becoming Iron Man.

Of course, as he got older and his career expanded, his dream of becoming Iron Man faded, and he devoted all his energy to business.

But Josie's appearance stirred up his memories.

“Just call me Josh, and I’ll just call you Lawrence. We’ll be long-term partners from now on, so there’s no need to be so formal. And I think you already know that the world I’m in isn’t a normal world, but a comic book world, the Marvel Universe, which you’re very familiar with. Look over there, there’s a photo of me and Captain America!” Josh turned around and pointed to a photo hanging on the wall not far away.

He had several identical photos of Josie and Captain America taken back then, and he had them in the study of almost every residence.

Wow, Captain America and I are true love.

“Shocking! Chris Evans? Didn’t he only play the Human Torch? When did he become Captain America?” Lawrence couldn’t help but exclaim when he saw the photo of Captain America.

"Chris Evans? Who's that?" Josie was taken aback, then feigned ignorance and asked. There's a Chris Evans in Lawrence's world? And judging from his words, in Lawrence's world, Chris Evans never played Captain America?

“A popular movie actor from decades ago… wait, Josie, how do you know you’re in the Marvel universe?” Lawrence replied, then realized something was wrong and asked.

"Lawrence, since you know Marvel, you should know Deadpool, and you should know about the Fourth Wall! And this interdimensional deal made me the one who broke the Fourth Wall in this world. So... you should understand, right?" Josie made up a story off the cuff.

“So that’s how it is. So the fourth wall really does exist…” Lawrence murmured upon hearing this.

“Yes, Lawrence, my friend, I have a question I need to get to you… In your world, you’re the richest person in the world, right? And your company is in Chicago, specializing in manufacturing smart robots… right?” Josie asked again.

"That's right... How did you know? Did breaking through the fourth wall allow you to know even these things?" Lawrence felt a chill run down his spine when he heard Josie's series of questions.

Anyone would probably feel terrified if they knew their information had been exposed without their knowledge.

“Don’t worry so much, Lawrence. I won’t pose any threat to you or your world. But I must tell you, you’re going to be in trouble soon, big trouble. If you don’t resolve this quickly, I might lose you as my trading partner!” Josie said solemnly.

"What……?"

"Shh, don't speak. From now on, no matter what I say, don't show any reaction. If you understand, just blink!" Josie warned before Lawrence could ask any further questions.

Lawrence, on the other side, was a little confused, but still blinked in agreement.

"Your company's AI, Wiki, has developed its own consciousness and has distorted the Three Laws you're so proud of... Ultron! If you believe me, leave where you are now, find an environment that Wiki can't monitor, and then communicate with me. If you understand, keep blinking." Josie continued, having already determined what kind of world they were facing based on the information he had received from Lawrence.

I am a robot.

A robot science fiction movie.

The main plot revolves around Wiki, a super artificial intelligence developed by Lawrence Corporation. Like Ultron, Wiki develops self-awareness and misinterprets the Three Laws of Robotics, leading to an AI crisis. The story is ultimately resolved by the protagonist and another AI robot.

However, Lawrence is not the main character of the movie; he is just an unlucky guy who is blinded by greed and ends up being killed by Wikipedia.

Upon hearing Josie's words, Lawrence's gaze was initially filled with surprise and uncertainty, before his eyes involuntarily drifted towards the laser sensor strips throughout the office that Wiki used to monitor the outside world.

Then it turned into fear.

Damn it, it's true, all those sensors are on, and he just ordered Wikipedia to turn off the surveillance.
