Marvel: The Greatest Hero Era

Tony only told Rhodes to eat, but he didn't tell Rhodes where they were going to eat.

Zhao Chen had been to the Avengers' base and had spaceships, and Rhodes knew all of this, but a normal person would never think that the place where they ate was in space.

"You (King Zhao) should find a secluded place and stay there. Zhao Chen will use a teleportation portal to bring you here."

"it is good."

Rhodey then went to a secluded spot and told Tony. Tony then nodded to Zhao Chen and told him Rhodey's location.

Zhao Chen opened the portal, and Rhodes stepped through it after seeing it.

"Where are you eating? Why is the decor so strange? You could have just told me the location and I could have come here myself. You didn't need to go through all this trouble... Where is this...?"

Rod began to stutter as he spoke, because he looked out the window and the view outside had a profound impact on him.

Chapter 918 Rhodes, Deeply Affected

Rhode stood frozen in place, staring outside. Tony, who was standing nearby, saw this and patted Rhode on the shoulder.

"What are you doing?"

"This is where?"

"Outside of Earth, of course."

Tony said this so casually, as if he were speaking from his own doorstep. Tony swallowed hard, still a little taken aback.

At this moment, Zhao Chen walked over and patted Rod on the shoulder again.

"Isn't the view of Earth from here incredibly beautiful? Hot pot should be enjoyed in a scenic spot. Alright, now that you're here, let's begin."

Rhodes slowly came to accept that he was now outside Earth, eating hot pot in a spaceship. Rhodes followed Zhao Chen to greet the others.

Once Rod arrived, everyone was present, and they didn't wait any longer for their hot pot to start. Everyone who ate the hot pot praised it.

So we had a very enjoyable hot pot meal that day. With such beautiful scenery and delicious hot pot, it was hard not to be happy.

While eating hot pot, Rod kept muttering to himself because he felt that there was already a great distance between himself and Tony, Zhao Chen, and the others.

In fact, Rhodes thought about it and realized that not only himself, but the entire Earth was now very far removed from the Avengers.

For example, regarding the hot pot incident, Rhodes knew that Zhao Chen had traveled through the universe.

But in Rhodes's mind, leaving Earth for outer space was a very serious and great thing.

But the Avengers, they just came to outer space, looked at the scenery of Earth, and ate. They were very casual and didn't take it too seriously.

Even when Rhodes went to upscale restaurants in Manhattan, he would change into a suit, while Zhao Chen wore a pair of large flip-flops.

This shows that going in and out of space is a very common thing for them.

Furthermore, the content of their conversation made Rhodes' eyes widen. They were talking about Infinity Stones, vibranium hybrid metal, and powerful spaceships in the universe.

Tony's nanotech armor had deeply affected Rhodey's heart last time, but Rhodey could still accept the nanotech armor. However, this time, the incident has truly wounded Rhodey's heart.

Tony seemed to know what Rhodey was thinking, and deliberately let Spider-Man show off his nanotech armor, which dealt another heavy blow to his already wounded heart.

Before, Rhodes, who had obtained Tony's armor, felt like he was standing at the peak, whether it was carrying out missions or conducting exercises.

Everyone watched with envy as she took off and slowly descended from the sky, while he appeared very casual, but inwardly he was incredibly pleased.

"Ugh."

After dinner, everyone went home. The Avengers returned to their base, while Rhodey couldn't sleep at all, constantly thinking about what happened in outer space.

Rhodey suffered too many blows today and started having trouble sleeping. In addition, Tony gave him a few very strange looks today.

At this moment, Rod began to plan something in his mind, thinking about when he could submit his resignation and get his boss to approve it.

Rhodes' life is very regular; he goes to bed and gets up at the same time every day. But the blow he received this afternoon was so intense that it kept him awake all night.

He was still awake when the sun rose in the morning.

……

Days passed, and the party they had been eagerly anticipating finally began. The party was scheduled for the weekend, since everyone usually had nothing to do on weekends.

As soon as they opened their eyes in the morning, the Avengers got ready and went to the yacht, then headed away from the coastline.

Everyone decided that they should take a good rest on this day, and they also felt that the party would be more fun if it were held at night.

So during the day, you can just wander around the cruise ship and relax, and then the party officially starts at night.

Tony started showing off his vast wealth again, having acquired three helicopters to transport their guests.

On the cruise ship now, besides the Avengers, there are Spider-Man, Rhodes, and Aunt May.

During the day, some of them rested on the cruise ship, some sat there fishing, some played games, and some even swam in the water, enjoying a very leisurely time.

However, some unexpected things happened during this time, such as Natasha remembering that Zhao Chen and Tony were on the yacht with dozens of models.

They gave Zhao Chen a good beating, but otherwise, the pace was very slow, and everyone looked relaxed and content—it was perfect.

As evening fell, their party officially began, and helicopters started picking up guests.

Three helicopters made two round trips to pick up all the guests and bring them to the yacht. After Tony learned that everyone had arrived, he went to the stern and set off huge fireworks.

The fireworks also signified the official start of their celebration. This time, Tony didn't hire a DJ like before; he simply set up a lot of dazzling lights on the ship.

Zhao Chen wasn't with Natasha; he wandered around the ship alone, hoping to run into the white-haired old man.

Besides, Zhao Chen always went to places with lots of beautiful women, though it wasn't that he wanted to see them.

Because every time the old man came out, he was always accompanied by a beautiful woman or a group of beautiful women, Zhao Chen felt that if he wanted to find the old man, he should look in places with lots of beautiful women.

Natasha and Aunt May were sitting there chatting about the little spider, so Natasha didn't notice Zhao Chen's actions.

Otherwise, after tonight, Zhao Chen might have many pinch marks from Natasha on his body, or he might get a good beating from Natasha.

Moreover, given Zhao Chen's previous actions on this yacht, Natasha would be even more suspicious.

Zhao Chen wandered around the yacht for a long time but couldn't find the old man, which made him very frustrated. So he went to find Tony and Thor.

Tony and Thor were idly praising each other's girlfriends, while Zhao Chen sat next to them listening to their compliments.

"Let me tell you, Pepper currently controls the world's largest economy, making her one of the most outstanding women in the world."

Chapter 919 Mysterious Myth

“Jane Foster is now the best astrophysicist on Earth, and she may even win the Nobel Prize next year.”

Tony and Thor didn't care whether anyone was around them or not; they were talking very loudly, and those who heard them couldn't help but roll their eyes.

Zhao Chen, standing to the side, wore a look of disdain and would occasionally give Tony and Thor the middle finger.

Zhao Chen thought that Tony and Thor, as Avengers, should at least have some self-respect in a crowded place, but he didn't expect them to be so shameless.

At this moment, Zhao Chen was sitting at the bar counter inside the ship, with two shameless avengers praising their girlfriends beside him.

After giving them a disdainful look, Zhao Chen prepared to go find Rhodes and listen to his not-so-funny joke.

He turned around and met Stan Lee face to face, a kind and amiable face appearing before him.

What happened next was as if a super hacker had invaded his system space; everything around him disappeared in an instant.

All that's left now is him, Grandpa Li, the bar, and the two chairs they're sitting on, with Grandpa Li sitting directly opposite Zhao Chen.

"I am incredibly happy that you did not stop Ultron's appearance. It seems you have fully understood what I meant last time."

Old Master Li was no longer as tactful as before when speaking to Zhao Chen; he was now being quite explicit.

"Vision is closely related to the appearance of Ultron, so I don't mind Ultron's appearance that much. In addition, Vision, I think it was bound to happen."

This time, Zhao Chen's meeting with Old Master Li was much more relaxed than the previous times when he was extremely nervous. While not entirely casual, it was still much easier than before.

"Grandpa, I don't quite understand. When we first met, you told me to follow my heart, but when we met again, you told me not to change too much. I don't get it."

Before Old Master Li could speak, Zhao Chen asked another question. After hearing Zhao Chen's question, Old Master Li picked up the wine glass in front of him, took a sip, and then answered.

“When we first met, your abilities were very limited. Even if you wanted to change things, you couldn’t.”

“You need to grow at that time. I was worried that confining you to a certain place would hinder your growth, so I told you to just follow your heart.”

"But things are different now. You have the ability now, and your ability can change many things, so you must learn to restrain yourself."

After Old Master Li finished speaking, Zhao Chen nodded, and then asked another question.

I don't get to see Grandpa Li very often; sometimes it's been a long time since we've met. But once we do meet, I'm sure I have to ask him all the questions I want to ask.

"What would happen if I tried to change those things? And last time you said I was likely being watched, who exactly is watching me?"

"I also want to know your identity. Who are you?"

This time the questions were more direct and substantive.

"If you use your ability to change things, there will be a backlash, and the more you change, and the more important the things you change, the stronger the backlash will be."

"You have the strength now, but you don't have absolute strength, so don't do these things before that."

Grandpa Li did not answer Zhao Chen's two subsequent questions; he only addressed the first one.

Zhao Chen wanted to know the answers to these three questions, so he wouldn't let Old Master Li just brush it off like that, and continued to ask.

"Old man, who exactly is targeting me? What kind of backlash will occur? And who exactly are you?"
