Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Tony kept laughing, and Lin Yi was laughing too.

Tony stopped laughing and stared intently at Lin Yi.

"Jarvis? Has any mental energy-related ability effect been detected?"

Tony asked Lin Yi directly in front of him, while observing Lin Yi's expression.

The latest Mark suit was being offered to them, yet instead of anger, Tony felt a sense of helplessness. This immediately alerted him to something was amiss.

"Sir, no mental energy-related effects have been detected." Jarvis reported quickly.

Are you sure?

Yes, sir. We have activated the most advanced V-Nu testing equipment for continuous monitoring, and no abnormalities have been detected.

"That's really... weird." Tony stared intently at Lin Yi for a moment, but Lin Yi's expression remained unchanged throughout.

The room was silent for a few seconds before Jarvis's voice rang out again.

"Sir, I have a theory."

Tony frowned. "Speak."

The reason you didn't feel angry at the other party's request might stem from the influence of another version of yourself in the third dimension or multiverse.

Tony frowned even more deeply.

"That's impossible, Jarvis. The multiverse can't affect me in the dimensional gap world. Besides, images between similar individuals in the multiverse only exist in theory, and the actual effect wouldn't be that significant."

"What if it were another path, one that was very similar to the one you've walked?" Jarvis countered.

Perhaps in Mr. Lin Yi's universe, his friend Tony is walking the path you once walked, thus creating a related resonance?

Tony's eyes flickered.

He knew very well that there was more than one Tony Stark in the interdimensional world.

Most of the Tony Starks from different universes share a remarkably similar past.

The first Iron Man suit was crafted in a cave, and after the War of the Covenant, Ultron, and Thanos, it became the standard equipment for most Iron Man characters.

But this Tony is different.

No Tony has ever walked the path he took after leaving his original universe. He was absolutely certain of that.

"You mean..." Tony's voice unconsciously carried a hint of seriousness.

Yes, it's speculated that another similar individual is experiencing the path you took after leaving your original universe, and is about to go to that place. Of course, this influence could also originate from Ms. Morgan in the multiverse.

Tony fell silent.

Did one of him embark on that path? And where will he go?

He knew perfectly well what this meant.

He was fully aware of the consequences.

Tony quickly regained his composure; now was not the time to delve into this. He was to enter the spatial ruins in five days, and any preparations needed to be made would have to wait until he could break free from the time loop. That was the priority at hand.

He looked at Lin Yi again.

"Alright, let's not talk about the Mark suit anymore." Tony leaned back on the sofa and steered the conversation back on track.

"I imagine you're curious why I asked you to come over earlier than planned, right?"

Lin Yi nodded, displaying remarkable patience throughout. He didn't interrupt or show any displeasure during Tony and Jarvis's conversation, instead watching with keen interest.

Lin Yi gestured for him to speak and said, "Go ahead, I'll listen."

Tony took a deep breath, his expression becoming even more serious and somber, and even his voice lowered.

He glanced at Eli sitting next to Lin Yi. Eli had barely spoken since entering the room, leaning back on the sofa and calmly watching the two of them talk.

"You, no, I should say it's you." Tony nodded at Lin Yi.

"Now that you're here, you should know about the concept of dimensional ascension."

"Of course," Lin Yi replied. "Isn't this what all living beings in the dimensional gap world are pursuing? Breaking through the ascent space and elevating themselves to the fourth dimension is no secret."

"That's right, everyone's pursuing it, but no one has ever succeeded," Tony said, a glint of shrewdness in his eyes. "Or rather, no one has ever publicly succeeded."

"But!" Tony paused, "someone told me that you can solve this puzzle."

"Oh?" Lin Yi narrowed his eyes. "Who is it?"

Morgan Stark.

Lin Yi's face showed no change, but his fingers twitched unconsciously.

"Which universe's Morgan Stark?"

"She wouldn't reveal any information about that. She only said that she and you have a good relationship..."

Lin Yi didn't reply, but quickly searched his memory. There were three Morgan Starks with whom he had close ties.

Obviously, it shouldn't be those two little ones, so there's only one left?

"Does she also wear a large cloak, always acting mysterious, appearing and disappearing at will?"

Tony hummed in agreement: "Do you know which universe's Morgan it is?"

Lin Yi pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "I have a guess that should be accurate, but I don't know the specific background of which Morgan."

"Never mind, that's not important. Why would she say that?"

"I don't know about that. That's all the information she gave me, and then she left."

"You believed her just like that? Didn't you ever suspect it was someone impersonating her?"

Tony scoffed, "I had my doubts before, but now that I know about time loops, and that you didn't appear in previous loops, I think the credibility of this information is enough for me to make all the necessary preparations."

"Time loop? What does that mean?" Lin Yi keenly grasped the vocabulary in Tony's words, and his eyes sharpened.

"You've hit the nail on the head." Tony snapped his fingers.

"That's the real reason I was so anxious to find you."

"Jarvis, retrieve all the relevant time loop data."

[Retrieving data.]

The holographic projection lit up again, and the documents Tony had previously reviewed were once again displayed in the air.

Rows of text, videos, and pictures are arranged densely.

Tony stood up from the sofa, walked to the projector, and pointed to the timeline markers.

"To make a long story short, I also received this news today."

"The entire interdimensional world is now trapped in a time loop due to the influence of an unknown force or entity."

"The space ruins will close in five days. This has happened seventeen times already. Time will reset the moment the space ruins close."

"And now, it's the eighteenth cycle."

Lin Yi stood up and looked at the projector with a serious expression. Eli remained seated on the sofa, but his gaze had changed.

"In the first seventeen cycles, the process was highly similar, unbelievably so, with almost no gradual differences appearing."

"The monsters, the crystal fragments, the battles, even the characters' dialogues, are like a movie that has been shown seventeen times."
