I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 431

Just as the clown clone was about to tear off the "perfect human skin" that was almost stuck to his own skin,

A golden bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the void.

"Sizzle!"

The clown's clone seemed to lose its color all at once, quickly dimming and then turning into charred pieces of paper that exploded with a bang.

Then, he appeared on the other side.

However, the clown clone that reappeared had its mouth twitching from time to time.

This isn't painful, it's numb.

To the Joker's surprise, Odin's golden lightning bolt did not have much destructive power; instead, its powerful paralyzing ability left a deep impression on the Joker's clone.

He was only slightly grazed, and even used a paper doll to take most of the damage for him, but now his soul felt numb and tingly.

Even the body felt a tingling sensation and began to convulse under the reflection of the soul.

But if that's all there is to it...

Thinking this, the clown's clone slightly raised its still somewhat numb head, looking at Odin's slightly dimmed golden soul, and said, "Your Majesty Odin, do you not want me to reveal my disguise?"

Seeing the clown clone who had guessed his meaning in just a moment, Odin's eyes seemed to brighten even more.

It seems that I am now more certain of the feasibility of one of my ideas.

"You guessed right."

After saying this, Odin reached out and removed the paralyzing power from the Joker's clone. Then, Odin glanced at Loki opposite him, and seeing that Loki remained unmoved, he said:

"Since my son is unwilling to protect Asgard for me, then I have no choice but to entrust it to you, an outsider."

Upon hearing this, the Joker's clone's eyes flickered. He glanced at the expressionless Loki and thought to himself, "Just as I expected."

[Was this all preordained, no, it should be said that he foresaw Odin's choice all along, and that's why he deliberately exposed my disguise, so that I wouldn't mistake myself for the real him?]

[Heh, even though I already knew, I'm still a little dissatisfied with myself for impersonating him.]

[Furthermore, this is also a silent warning, a reminder not to go too far.]

Having barely guessed part of Loki's thoughts, Arryn turned to look at Odin.

Compared to Loki.

Odin's purpose, however, was much purer.

He must have guessed Loki's thoughts, which is why he devised a plan to have himself take Loki's place and continue the act.

Moreover, with Loki, who has the power to control time, watching over him, he could feel more at ease.

【No.】

[There might be more to it than that.]

[Perhaps just now, Loki had a deep conversation with Odin, and their every move was even pre-planned.]

This is not difficult for Loki, who has mastered the power of time and can freely travel through the past and future.

Thinking of this, a glint of light appeared in the clown's slightly lowered eyelids.

Suppressing a barely suppressed urge to smile, the clown clone asked rather bluntly, "So, what do you two want me to do next?"

Upon hearing this, Loki chuckled and said, "You should ask the great King Odin that question, not me."

talking.

Loki took a step back, then turned around, his back to them, and looked at Fricka standing to the side.

As Loki retreated.

Odin's eyes visibly dimmed.

But after letting out a slight sigh in his heart, he ultimately said nothing.

Instead, he turned to the Joker's clone beside him and said, "I don't know who you are, and I don't want to know, but since Loki is willing to ask you to save Fricka, then he must trust you a lot."

"In that case, please do not betray his trust. Before Thor grows up, help him and Asgard overcome this crisis."

"Of course, I won't let you help me for nothing."

"Although the Celestial Palace was destroyed in the battle just now, the treasure trove beneath it is not so easily destroyed."

"Take whatever you need, as long as it's useful to you."

Upon hearing this, even the clown's clone couldn't help but look up, staring at Odin with a surprised and astonished expression.

"You can take everything as long as it's useful to me?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I must say, Your Majesty Odin, you are truly generous. I have long heard of the precious treasures in the legendary Odin's Treasury."

"Precious? No..." Odin chuckled upon hearing this, "In my eyes, my family and my people are a hundred times, a thousand times more precious than those treasures gathering dust in treasuries."

"As long as they are here, Asgard will remain. If they are gone, what use is it if Asgard's treasury is filled with treasures?"

Upon hearing this, the clown clone clapped his hands and said, "That's right. In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."

After Erin agreed.

Odin laughed upon hearing this: "I couldn't be happier."

········

It's unclear whether Odin's actions in that frozen time exhausted his last bit of strength, or whether everything he had was already coming to an end.

In the instant Loki unlocked that frozen time.

Odin then turned into golden specks of light and vanished into the world.

then.

That's when Loki used the Faceless Man's abilities to impersonate Odin.

········

On the other side...

After time returns to normal.

Tony had just taken off his mask and was about to speak when he suddenly noticed that Erin, who should have been embracing him, had suddenly switched places with that stunningly beautiful woman and appeared behind the horse.

They even maintained a "safe" distance from the two women on the back of the celestial horse.

Goodness, that's fast!

Tony Stark, who had immediately put on a disguise after thinking Arryn had discovered his arrival, twitched at the corner of his eye, then looked at Arryn exaggeratedly and said:

"Hey, are you on guard against me?"

"Don't worry, I have no interest in your private life. In fact, if you're interested, I can introduce you to some great beauties. Trust me, their figures are absolutely top-notch."

Upon hearing this, Erin narrowed her eyes slightly and sneered, "Is that so? Then could you explain what happened with those photos you just secretly took?"

"And after taking the photos and videos, why did you specifically back them up multiple times and store them on different chips?"

Tony Stark: "???"

What the hell? How did this kid know I was secretly filming him? And how did he know I backed up those photos and videos to different chips?

and many more.

We were hundreds of meters apart when we took the photo.

There was also the Mark armor blocking the way.

This kid's ears can't be that sharp, can they? They could hear what I just said to Jarvis.

"Beep beep beep!"

Just then, Tony heard Jarvis's warning voice in his ears.

"Warning, warning..."

"Data lost due to unknown intrusion..."

"Retrieving lost data..."

"Due to unknown interference, the search failed and the file has been permanently lost..."

Upon hearing the long string of notification sounds, Tony Stark's heart skipped a beat.

Damn it.

Could these missing files be the photos and videos I just had Jarvis take?

What you fear most is what happens.

Soon, Tony heard Jarvis's voice again.

"Based on a comparison of the databases before and after the data was collected, the missing file is number 72..."

The moment those two numbers were announced, Tony immediately yelled, "Shut up, Jarvis."

Before Tony could finish his rant, a gaze that seemed to be both smiling and not smiling came into Tony Stark's view.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening dragon roar echoed in Tony Stark's mind once again.

······

"Bang bang bang..."

Under the [Despairing Gaze], Tony Stark, his mind shaken, lost control of the Mark armor and plunged headlong into the outer sea of ​​Asgard.

(Although a large amount of seawater was sucked away by the black hole, the seawater in other areas, except for the area near the black hole, has not dried up.)

"Cough cough cough."

A dozen seconds later, after choking on several mouthfuls of salty seawater.

Tony Stark, who had narrowly escaped drowning, finally emerged from the sea.

As soon as he took off from the sea, Tony immediately deactivated his visor.

Immediately afterwards, intense blue flames suddenly erupted from the limbs of the Mark armor.

After creating a huge crater in the sea, the golden-red Mark armor shot out like a ricocheting sword, accompanied by sonic booms, and quickly chased after Erin, who was riding the Pegasus King.

Driving his Mark armor, Tony Stark angrily caught up with Arryn.

However, he still had to question it.

Erin's eyes immediately flashed with a dazzling light again.

Seeing the familiar glint in Arryn's eyes that seemed to conceal a dragon, Tony Stark, who had been furious and aggressive, immediately calmed down.

Then, before Erin could activate [Despair Solidification] again, he quickly spoke:

"Stop, stop, stop! I surrender, I admit defeat, I apologize..."

"Don't use that trick again. If you do it again, I might get a concussion."

"I got my marriage certificate with your Aunt Pepper a few days ago. You don't want your Aunt Pepper to spend the rest of her life taking care of a person in a vegetative state, do you?"

Good guy.

Upon hearing this, Arlin raised an eyebrow, but also dispelled the "Dejected Gaze" he had used to intimidate Tony Stark.

Then he said seriously, "Don't worry, if I really do give you a concussion, I'll suggest that Aunt Pepper find someone better."

"Believe me, Aunt Pepper deserves better than a playboy like you who's over 60."

Upon hearing this, Tony immediately bristled and retorted, "What do you mean, 'too old'? Kid, let me tell you, my age is when a man is at his most attractive."

Erin: "Heh, really?"

Although Tony tried to convince himself that he was in his prime, the most attractive time of his life, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty when he thought about his birthdate on his ID card, which showed him to be much older than Pepper.

So he subtly changed the subject, saying, "Of course, and I don't think there's a better man in the world than me. I'm Iron Man, Tony Stark."

Upon hearing this, Erin sighed softly: "In fact, in my opinion, this has never been a plus. With the world about to undergo a major change, I think an ordinary person who can prevent Aunt Pepper from worrying might be more suitable for her."

Upon hearing this...

Tony Stark, who was usually so stubborn, fell silent for once.

Recalling the worry in Pepper's eyes every time he donned the Mark armor and charged towards the enemy, a hint of guilt flashed in Tony's eyes as well.

But I feel guilty as much as I do.

Even if he felt guilty, Tony would never give up the woman he loved to someone else.

No one can get close to Pepper unless she dies.

As for guilt.

At worst, I can just spend more time with Pepper in the future.

······

Spend more time with Aunt Pepper?

also.

Having caught this thought from the intense emotional fluctuations emanating from Tony, Erin nodded slightly, then turned to Tony and asked, "What brings you here?"

Upon hearing Erin mention this, Tony, who was still immersed in feeling guilty towards Pepper, immediately retorted irritably, "I'm here because I'm worried about you getting into trouble! Otherwise, why would I risk so much to come here?"

Halfway through his sentence, Tony said in a slightly sarcastic tone, "But who knew that my good intentions would be so ingratitude? Not only was I not moved, but I also gave someone a mental shock right from the start."

"Heh." Erin said calmly, "It's not my fault. Who told someone to secretly take photos and make several backups? If it weren't for Aunt Pepper, I wouldn't have used [Despairing Gaze] just now, but the Eternal Flame that burns everything."

"And if anyone had eyes, they would have seen that the woman behind me just now tried to stab me with a dagger."

Tony dismissed the question, saying, "Stab you? So what? Lots of women have tried to stab me, but I always managed to stab them back."

At this point, Tony changed his tone and said, "Alright, kid, stop explaining. I'm not blind; I know what's going on."

In fact.

When Tony moved closer and started to vent that the beautiful woman in front of Erin was Thor's girlfriend, he realized he had misunderstood.

This kid definitely didn't have any women in front or behind him.

Ok.

It was just a hug from behind.

As a playboy, Tony mostly relied on his "money power" to find girlfriends, but even if he's never seen a pig run, he's never eaten pork.

The woman who was on Erin's back just now was practically drooling with desire as she looked at him.

Tony had seen that look in his eyes many times before.

He was certain that with just one look from Erin, the other person would wash himself clean and obediently send him to Erin's bed.
