I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 124 Mystery

"I see!"

After hearing what the chubby boy said, a glint of light flashed in Erin's eyes.

They all seemed to have been suffocated to death. Hearing this almost makes one subconsciously think of something dirty. No wonder the community specially hired someone to perform a ritual.

However, for Erin, there are many things besides ghosts that can do this.

For example, certain special taboo items.

Huh?

Speaking of which, that thing on 13th Street, is it some kind of taboo item?

Thinking of this, a hint of doubt flashed in Erin's eyes.

But that's not necessarily true.

Speaking of which, 13th Street isn't far from where I live. I'll go check out that filthy thing when I have time and see what's going on.

If it's really dirty stuff, then so be it.

If it's a forbidden item, it might even allow Erin to gain some Fate Points.

Having just had a stroke of good luck and drawn a lot of great items, Erin is now extremely envious of Fate Points.

"Yeah, yeah, whether it's true or not, it's always better for us to stay away from 13th Street until that matter is resolved."

The chubby boy shook his fat slightly, then asked Erin, "By the way, where did you go yesterday? I was going to share that secret video with you, but you didn't come back after school."

"Speaking of which, you didn't even tell me you were taking the day off yesterday. That's really not fair. I was even planning to share that video I secretly got my hands on with you. I haven't shown that video to anyone else. You know what? Yesterday, that mysterious mech appeared in New York and stopped that giant Iron Monger from harming the citizens of New York. Now everyone online is calling that mysterious mech Iron Man..."

Seeing the chubby boy Doug getting more and more excited, Erin suddenly said, "Big Dog, did you watch the news this morning?"

Upon hearing this, chubby Doug looked at Erin with a somewhat confused expression and said, "News? What news? I hadn't even opened my eyes this morning when my mom dragged me out of bed to wash up. By the time I was a little more awake, I was already on the school bus. How could I have had time to watch any damn news? Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

Erin smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"Nothing much? It's just that at the joint press conference held by the federal government and the military this morning, Tony Stark admitted to being Iron Man..."

Erin hadn't finished speaking.

Little Fatty Doug's eyes widened suddenly, and he blurted out "Holy shit!"

Almost instantly.

He then took out a mobile phone.

Then, he skillfully entered a website address and began browsing the information on the webpage.

"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit..."

Whether it was because he was too excited or something else, the chubby boy kept blurting out "Holy crap" as he watched, which annoyed several of Doug's classmates.

If it weren't for Erin, who was sitting next to Doug, having recently taught the school bully Fleischer a lesson and still wielding considerable influence, several hot-tempered guys might have even wanted to teach this foul-mouthed fat kid a lesson.

However, when the chubby Doug blurted out his next sentence, their dissatisfaction turned into surprise.

"Holy crap, that billionaire, genius scientist Tony Stark is actually Iron Man! This world is too surreal..."

What?

As soon as the chubby boy said this, the slightly noisy classroom fell silent for a few seconds because the teacher was not there.

But next second.

Just like an explosion after a period of silence, the entire classroom erupted in chaos.

"Impossible! How could that playboy be Iron Man?!"

"Exactly, exactly. Tony Stark is a notorious arms dealer. How could he possibly be the Iron Man who miraculously rescued civilians from terrorists?"

"That's right, Doug, don't you ever think before you speak?"

"······"

In the class, those students who envied Tony Stark's life but did not agree with Tony Stark's character were like hedgehogs with their quills popping out, refuting the chubby boy's words one after another.

Faced with a series of doubts.

The chubby boy, Doug, argued with a flushed face and a bulging neck, "Why would I lie to you? This story has already spread online. Don't you guys know how to use the internet?"

As soon as the chubby boy finished speaking, most of the students in the class took out their phones and started searching online.

soon.

Exclamations and wails erupted from the classroom.

"Holy crap, what that fat Doug said was actually true! Iron Man really is that playboy Tony Stark..."

"Fuck, how can this world be so unfair? Billions in wealth, fame, status, luxury cars, and beautiful women are one thing, but as one of the world's top scientists, Tony Stark is even smarter than us, and now he's a superhero! How are we ordinary people supposed to survive?!"

······

Looking at the classroom, which was starting to become chaotic and increasingly noisy.

Erin shook his head.

"Are these guys making such a ruckus because they think the teacher isn't coming fast enough?"

as predicted.

Not long after the commotion started, the head of student affairs, Shermo, with an angry expression, pushed open the classroom door with a "bang".

"What are you all doing? Do you all want to rebel?"

In an instant, the students in the classroom who were excited just a moment ago, when they saw Shermo's extremely gloomy and low-pressure face, were like little chicks whose throats had been grabbed by fate.

They all chickened out.

They sat obediently in their seats, heads bowed, and were incredibly quiet.

"snort!"

Shermo stood coldly at the classroom door for a long time until the chicks completely quieted down before turning and leaving.

Although Shermo had left, the students, fearing he might return, no longer dared to be as unruly as before.

They all dared to discuss it cautiously, like quails.

Fortunately, though.

This repression did not last long.

Soon, as the bell rang, another uproar erupted in the classroom.

Moreover, with the keywords Iron Man and Tony Stark, the uproar quickly spread like a tidal wave throughout Midtown High School.

·······

As Erin stepped out of the classroom, he quickly spotted a beautiful golden figure in the crowd.

Pushing through the crowd that was buzzing with discussion.

Arlin came to Gwen's side.

Not long after Arryn walked toward Gwen, Gwen also saw Arryn in the crowd.

Seeing Erin walking towards her, Gwen didn't wait in place, but squeezed through the crowd like Erin did.

Not long after.

Arryn and Gwen met in the crowd.

Looking at the unharmed Erin in front of her, Gwen smiled and said, "Looks like you've got Director Shermore sorted out!"
