Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Chapter 37 Following the Mage, Going Five Meals in Two Days

Feeling a bit down, I picked up a piece of food; when you're in a bad mood, even food doesn't taste good.

"Mommy, she was killed by an alien monster..." Morgan suddenly spoke while eating, her voice muffled.

Her voice trembled slightly, causing Lin Yi's heart to skip a beat.

With a touch of tenderness, Lin Yi patted the little brown head and said, "You don't need to tell me these things, Morgan."

"I'm not taking you out to find out anything today. I just hope you can be happier, like Morgan from another universe..."

Morgan shook his head. "It was my own idea..."

……

An hour later, Lin Yi carried the sleeping Morgan and slowly flew into the night sky, heading towards the wooden house by the lake.

Little Morgan was fast asleep, a faint smile on his lips.

Morgan didn't say much. After hearing Pepper's story, Lin Yi stopped her from continuing and instead spent the rest of the time trying to distract her and cheer her up.

In this universe, Tony and his daughter still live in a lakeside cabin, but Lin Yi, who flew into the forest, discovered that the protection level of this forest was more than one level higher than that of his own universe.

The lights were on in the lakeside cabin, and Tony Stark stood on the grass in front of it.

He watched silently as Lin Yi flew down, glanced at Morgan in his arms, and then a mocking smile appeared on his lips: "What? Mr. Lin Yi from a parallel universe, don't you feel ashamed of using a child to obtain information?"

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow and hardened his fist.

"Your crappy satellite practically flew right over my head. Don't you know what happened today?"

What do you mean by exploiting children? That's utterly alarmist!

Tony knew, of course, that he was just deliberately mocking Lin Yi.

After a moment of silence, Tony wanted to make another sarcastic remark, but for some reason, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

He took Morgan from Lin Yi's arms and walked into the house without saying a word.

Lin Yi glared at him unhappily. He had taken care of Morgan for him all afternoon, and the old man hadn't even said thank you.

"Hey Tony, we need to talk."

Tony paused for a moment, then continued walking into the house.

"...Tomorrow, come find me at Stark Tower tomorrow."

boom!

The door slammed shut without hesitation, making it clear that there was no hot tea for them and they should leave immediately.

"Alright!" Lin Yi shrugged and flew away.

When I leave this universe, I'll definitely give him a good beating if I get the chance!

Inside the cabin, Tony placed little Morgan on the bedroom bed and covered her with a blanket. Then he went to the living room, which, though not large, was decorated very warmly.

Most of the trinkets here were personally selected and purchased by Pepper. I used to be a little disgusted with them, but since Pepper left, these things have remained in their original place and haven't been moved again.

"What's the compatibility rate?" Tony asked, holding his glass, about to tilt his head back and drink it all in one gulp—a habit he'd developed over the past two years.

Morgan gradually stopped drinking after he was born, but he started drinking again two years ago.

After all, alcohol can temporarily make him forget some things, but he never dared to drink too much, as he wanted to ensure that he was always clear-headed and ready to fight.

All of this bound him like a rope; responsibility, the future, threats—everything was omnipresent, urging him to age quickly.

"The target person exhibits multiple characteristics mentioned by the quantum man, and considering the final photo of the communication device, the match rate is 67.7%."

"Sir, the match rate has reached over 60%. Should we prepare to start STW2501?"

Save the world, a rare and serious code name in Tony's plans, which began in January 25.

It wasn't originally named this, but as the events unfolded and information was updated, both the project code name and its content underwent more than one revision.

"Start it up." Tony leaned back on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling.

"If he comes to me tomorrow, we'll do the final verification. Even if it's not him, we'll have to make other preparations, Jarvis."

"Our time... is running out."

……

Lin Yi leisurely flew towards the hotel. He always flew like this when he wasn't in a hurry, and he was very content.

Back at the hotel, I saw Strange and Peter as soon as I entered the room.

"Hey, you guys are back pretty early today! Did you have any good news today? Let me tell you..." Lin Yi said as he walked around the sofa.

Lin Yi, who was about to talk about what he had gained that day, stopped and looked incredulously at the two people in front of him who looked like they were fleeing a disaster.

"Ragged clothes" is not enough to describe their current state. They were bruised and swollen, their spirits were low, and their eyes were lifeless as they stared at the sky, like salted fish that had lost the meaning of life.

Even the magic cloak behind Strange had turned into tattered strips of cloth, trembling constantly. Lin Yi, still weak and feeble, managed to raise one of the tattered strips and shakily greet him.

Even this rag is more polite than Tony!

What have these two been through these past two days?! How did they end up looking like this?

"Wait, you went to see the Ancient One again? Did she get hit again?"

"Woof...Woof!" Peter howled twice, his words muffled.

"Why are you barking like a dog?" Lin Yi was even more shocked! Had he been beaten so badly that he was mentally unstable?

How the hell am I going to explain this to Tony when I get back? I brought your "idiot son" out for a trip, and he's really turned into an idiot son now.

Peter wanted to cry; his mouth was swollen, and he couldn't speak clearly.

"Don't even mention it..." Strange said weakly, "I went to the Dark Dimension and fought a demon."

"Waaah..." Peter rolled his eyes and whimpered a couple more times. Was he fighting a demon? If the two Ancient Ones hadn't appeared in the end, they might have already entered the quantum realm. If they were unlucky enough to get lost, it wouldn't have been much better than being swallowed by a dimensional demon.

"Dormammu?" Lin Yi retorted. "Dormammu could be beaten like this by you? Your time... oh right, sorry."

Oh, I forgot, the three of them didn't bring the Time Stone with them when they came.

The Ancient One deliberately didn't give it to her, saying that this universe was too dangerous, unlike the Lost Library, so she couldn't bring the Time Stone with her.

Okay, that's realistic, but it's also out of necessity.

"Not Dormammu, but a much more powerful dimensional demon," Strange said in a deep voice, forcing himself to sit up.

"No, perhaps it can't be called a dimensional demon anymore. Its body is covered with twisted dimensional demon faces. I don't know what those things are, but they must be something from the dark dimension."

Very good. It seems he fought a battle with the dimensional demon and mastered the art of saying nothing at all.

"Peter and I were no match for that thing. We were constantly running away and almost risked entering the quantum realm."

Lin Yi's expression gradually became serious. He had almost entered the quantum realm, which meant that the demon had indeed threatened their lives.

Otherwise, in a universe that does not belong to oneself, without any anchor point, it would be an absolutely dangerous act to rashly enter the quantum realm.

"Finally, the appearance of two Ancient Ones turned the tide of the battle."

"Did you win?" Lin Yi asked.

"No, the Ancient One led us to escape."

"We can't beat them. That monster is too powerful, and the Dark Dimension is his domain. We have no advantage whatsoever."

"Oh right!" Strange suddenly looked up. "Lin Yi, can you order something for us? We haven't had a proper meal in the last couple of days, just last night."

...Lin Yi didn't know how to comment. He thought the serious expression meant to say something big, but it turned out he was just hungry.

These two are... really pitiful.

Yesterday I got a beating from the Ancient One, and today I was kicked around by a dimensional demon for most of the day, as if I were just a random roadside creature.

Suddenly I felt a bit sorry for Spider-Man. He spent two days with Strange, went hungry for five meals, and got beaten up like this.
