A god-level prop master in the Marvel universe

[028] Mephisto, the troublemaker

Stopping time is a very classic superpower.

Its strength goes without saying.

Although Luo Bai has the Crazy Code Watch that can control the flow of time, that tool has certain limitations.

If Luo Bai remembers correctly, the time stop table shouldn't have too many limitations, but the specifics will depend on the user manual.

"Master Modu"

Just as Luo Bai was pondering, a voice rang out in the temple.

Looking in the direction of the sound, Luo Bai saw an unfamiliar mage walking towards the two of them.

Luo Bai had never seen the mage before, so he couldn't recall his name. However, the mage seemed to have something on his mind, and after coming over, he pulled Mo Du aside and said something to him.

After the two finished discussing, Mordo turned to Luo Bai and said, "I have some things to attend to. If you have time, you can go and visit the London Temple and the Hong Kong Temple yourself."

Luo Bai also wanted to go back and study the newly acquired items, so he immediately agreed: "I will go."

Mordo didn't say much, but simply followed the sorcerer and left, closing the doors of the New York Temple before he left.

Seeing the closed gates of the New York Temple, Luo Bai immediately used his teleportation ability to return to his villa.

After returning to the villa, Luo Bai took out the instruction manual for the Time Stop Watch and began to read it.

Similar to what Luo Bai remembered, this item has few limitations. As long as the button is pressed, time will stop, and the whole world will fall into a state of stillness.

However, those who come into contact with the item will not be affected, and naturally, powerful creatures that also disregard the rules of time will also remain unaffected.

To remove this status, simply press the button again.

After understanding how to use it, Luo Bai put the instruction manual back into the fourth-dimensional space.

Considering the significant impact of this item, Luo Bai didn't take it out to test it like he had done before. After all, if used properly, this thing could save the world in no time, so he had to keep this powerful trump card safe.

Just as he was about to have lunch and then read some books to practice his magic, Tony called.

As soon as the call connected, Tony asked, "Are you free tonight?"

"have."

"There's a party tonight, want to come?"

"A party?"

"It was actually a party to celebrate my safe return. You know I've been quite busy before, so I haven't had time to attend these kinds of gatherings."

Since returning, Tony has been busy studying the suit and thinking about how to deal with the Ten Rings, so he really didn't have time to attend any parties.

I've finally gotten through a lot of things these past few days and have some free time, so going to a party to relax is a good idea.

However, Luo Bai wasn't very interested, so he politely declined, saying, "I don't like drinking."

Tony chuckled on the other end of the phone and quickly said, "There are plenty of beautiful women tonight~ Oh, by the way, I'm planning to confess to Potts tonight, and I need you to come over and give me some advice."

It would be normal for anyone else to say that, but it's really hard to believe when Tony says it.

"Does a seasoned player like you really need me to give you advice?" Luo Bai retorted.

Tony sighed and said helplessly, "Potz is angry because of the suit. She's been very cold towards me these past few days. But she trusts you, and I think your words might be more effective than mine."

Tony had just announced to the media that he would no longer manufacture weapons, but when he got home he started developing a suit of armor, and ended up coming back covered in bullet holes, which naturally angered Potts.

She was angry not because Tony was making weapons, but because she was worried about Tony.

Although she is officially Tony's assistant, their relationship has long since crossed that line, so it's no surprise that Tony is now confessing his feelings.

but……

"Ms. Potts trusts me because of you; I don't think my words are more effective."

"It was like that before, but it's different ever since she found out you're a prop master. She thinks your props are amazing. Although I think my battle suit is pretty good too, I have to admit that some of your props are indeed impressive."

If it were anyone else, given Tony's proud and arrogant personality, he probably wouldn't have said such a thing.

After all, Tony was naturally unhappy that the woman he liked admired another man and praised his man's gadgets.

But if the other party is Luo Bai, then that's a different story.

Although Tony was still a little annoyed, he genuinely respected Luo Bai.

Seeing Tony's enthusiastic invitation, Luo Bai felt it would be impolite to refuse.

"Okay, what time tonight?"

"I'll come pick you up."

The call ended there. After eating, Luo Bai went inside to read and continue practicing magic.

It wasn't until 7 p.m. that Luo Bai stopped training and went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Tony, dressed in a sharp red and black suit, appeared in front of Luo Bai.

"Long time no see, Luo Bai~~" Tony greeted him warmly as soon as they met.

Before Luo Bai could speak, Tony frowned and continued, "Aren't you going to change your clothes? There might be a lot of reporters here tonight."

Luo Bai always dresses casually, mostly in sportswear or casual clothes.

He didn't even change out of his training clothes while training at Kamar-Taj, let alone attend this kind of party.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Bai said, "No need, let's leave it like this."

Tony smiled, opened the car door, and said, "Okay, let's get in."

As they talked, the two got into Tony's silver sports car.

As soon as they got in the car, Tony told Luo Bai about what had happened recently: "I went to see Rhodes, an old friend of mine, an Air Force lieutenant colonel. I told him about the suits and the Ten Rings, and he helped me out of a lot of trouble."

"Obadia already knows that I bombed the Ten Rings gang. He came to see me, and we had another argument."

"He sold weapons in my name, so going through legal proceedings would be quite troublesome. I haven't figured out the best way to deal with him yet..."

Tony was still saying something, but Luo Bai couldn't hear what he said next.

It wasn't that he didn't want to listen, but rather that Luo Bai seemed to see Mephisto's figure through the car window.

It was Mephisto in the form of an elderly human, flashing past Luo Bai's eyes.

Although the appearance was brief, Luo Bai was certain he hadn't misread it.

Yesterday, Luo Bai was wondering why Mephisto hadn't made a move, but it seems he's about to take action tonight.
