Chapter 192 The Circumstances of Change

"The current erosion intensity of the entire area of ​​the embankment has reached R10.6, and the embankment has already fallen. The evacuation rate is only 7%, and 3% of the evacuees have shown mild erosion symptoms..."

"A 100-meter-deep erosion zone has appeared, and environmental pollution is spreading to surrounding cities..."

"It is expected to spread to New Zealand in three hours, with some peripheral areas reaching R3 level."

Morgan's voice was low and could not hide his disappointment.

There was a long silence on the other end of the communicator.

Tony Stark stared at the desolate Martian surface before him, his lips trembling slightly.

The worst fears came true; those beasts are intelligent and know how to lie in wait.

Once one case appears, another will soon follow; they cannot remain hidden only in Niuyue.

This is what he is most worried about: what if there is also an erosion matrix in New Zealand?

Who is currently involved in the war?

"Only Uncle Tony. Also, I detected a distress signal sent out, targeting Carol, Thor."

"..."

After another silence, Tony suddenly asked, "What about Pepper and... Morgan Jr.? Did they get out safely?"

"..."

This time, Morgan remained silent.

Tony on the other end also fell silent.

Morgan didn't know what to say. Although, from a biological point of view, this little Morgan wasn't Tony's biological daughter.

But when it comes to parallel universes, Tony is Tony, another Tony, he... I guess he's still considered Tony.

Anyway, his sensitive, suspicious, cold and strict father would only occasionally show a few smiles in front of him and little Morgan.

She quite liked little Morgan, this miniature version of herself. He was always there for her, showering her with small gifts.

Morgan's own childhood wasn't happy, and that wasn't Tony's fault. Rather, their universe didn't offer her a relatively stable childhood to enjoy, so in some ways, she was taking care of and making up for her own childhood.

However, Morgan and Pepper are not so easily saved now. Due to environmental erosion of level R10 or higher, their suits cannot even reach Stark Tower; they will mutate under the heavily corrosive fog before they can even reach a third of the way.

The anti-celestial race's battle suits are possible, but there's no time to get them.

The Anti-Celestial suits are primarily designed for offense and defense. While they can withstand R10-level corrosive environments, it takes at least ten minutes to deploy them to Earth. By then, Morgan and Pepper would have already mutated or perished.

"Can you still contact... the other Tony?" The stern version of Tony finally spoke.

Morgan looked worriedly at the city of Nuoyue shrouded in the eroding fog, suppressing his worry and sadness for little Morgan and Pepper. "The erosion is too severe. It has interfered with communications. I... cannot contact them."

Morgan's voice still carried an uncontrollable tremor and dejection.

"Sigh..." The stern Tony sighed deeply, and after a moment of silence, said with some determination, "Activate the Anti-Celestial Battle Suit. At least... we need to keep the erosion within the bounds of the agreement and prevent it from affecting the surrounding cities any further."

Morgan paused, "Are you sure? The Anti-Celestial suit requires a new core power supply and re-etching of the energy circuitry after each use..."

"This will be unusable for at least a week, in case the Celestials..."

Morgan didn't finish speaking, but Tony understood. The Celestials had "visited" Earth more than once or twice. It was an open secret that they had designs on Earth. They didn't know what was so attractive about Earth to the Celestials; at least, they hadn't found out yet.

The anti-celestial battle suit is currently the only means for Blue Star to resist the Celestials.

Due to material limitations, the Anti-Celestial Battle Suit's violent energy from the special power supply unit will deform and damage all energy circuits for a certain period of time after each activation, thus limiting its usability.

This is why, when the Celestials came, Tony, piloting the Anti-Celestial Suit, unleashed a barrage of powerful attacks from the start. He needed to inflict significant damage and injury on them to prevent them from harassing Earth while the Anti-Celestial Suit was unable to activate and repair itself.

Morgan felt it wasn't the right time yet: "Thor and Carol should be back on Earth. As long as Uncle Tony can hold out for a while, that's fine. Activating the Anti-Celestial Suit is too dangerous; it's a last resort..."

"Listen to me," the stern Tony interrupted Morgan from the other end of the communicator.

"Your Uncle Tony's current technology is not enough to fight in an R10 environment. I know he will definitely bring out the MK199, but that thing's technology is still not enough. He doesn't have a safe time to fight. Once the time limit is exceeded, or if there is even the slightest bug that makes it malfunction, your Uncle Tony will instantly turn into a monster."

"In this situation, a rapid evacuation is the best course of action."

"...If only you had agreed to share the core technology information back then," Morgan couldn't help but retort, only to regret it immediately.

On the other end of the communicator, Tony's rapid breathing came through, eventually turning into a sigh.

"This is not the time to talk about this. Things are already very serious, Morgan."

"You should know that the Corruption Mother is very special. Its attack and defense capabilities are not particularly outstanding, but its special ability is to open micro-wormholes and summon its own kind. You haven't forgotten that, have you?"

Morgan's gaze darkened again. She hadn't forgotten, of course, that the Corruption Mother could summon a large number of its own kind through micro-wormholes.

The only way to avoid being summoned is to kill the Corrupting Mother as quickly as possible.

However, given that the Matrix of Corruption is hundreds of meters long, the MK199 does not seem to have the ability to kill it before the summoning is activated.

"So, activate the Anti-Celestial Race battle suit and kill the Corrupting Mother as soon as possible..."

"...I understand. I'll proceed with the adjustment now..."

Morgan got stuck.

A spherical object suddenly appeared in the sky above the edge of the city of San Francisco, entering Morgan's field of vision and interrupting her reply.

It was a transparent refuge capsule, flying through the corrosive fog.

The fog seemed to be afraid of the refuge pod's presence; as it approached, all the corrosive fog scattered and fled.

Morgan's pupils contracted, and he quickly zoomed in on the display on his visor.

Her mouth gaped open as she stared at the scene in disbelief.

Inside the transparent refuge pod were Pepper and Morgan, ordinary human beings!

Below, dragging a small ball as it flew, was Lin Yi, the young man she found unreliable.

"Morgan, Morgan?"

"Morgan! Answer me, what happened?" The sudden interruption made the stern Tony frown.

Morgan didn't speak, but tapped on his helmet to share the live feed.
