The series of unexpected events made him realize that he was just an ordinary person, at most a little smarter than others, and that he was so powerless and ridiculous when facing death.

There are things he can't do, things beyond his comprehension, people stronger than him, and things he can't even imagine.

Before these events occurred, Tony wouldn't have believed Gu Qing's nonsense... Even though Gu Qing had repeatedly proven his intelligence-gathering abilities, he would have trusted himself and thought Gu Qing was mistaken, rather than doubting himself.

But now, he's panicking.

Is it a ghost or something beyond our comprehension that hasn't been revealed yet?

Is there a mistake in the design of my anti-ghost armor?

is not it……

Many questions that he had worried about but hadn't thought about deeply because he couldn't solve them surfaced in Tony's mind, making him feel extremely anxious.

Stay calm, stay calm.

Tony told himself this, then took a deep breath in and a deep breath out.

After repeating this several times, and feeling his mind clearer, he looked at Gu Qing seriously and said, "This is very timely intelligence, and it might be able to remedy the irreversible consequences. So, can you tell me about the shortcomings of the anti-ghost armor that you know about?"

I know nothing about air.

Gu Qing muttered to himself, but smiled on the surface, "I think you're deliberately making things difficult for me."

"Ok?"

Tony looked puzzled.

"I only graduated from elementary school and don't understand any of those high-tech gadgets. I just often see you driving those weird-looking armored vehicles, confidently going into battle, only to get torn to shreds."

At this point, Gu Qing threw away his cigarette butt, stomped it out, and continued solemnly, "Also, I'm just well-informed, not omniscient. I'm just searching and filtering out information that I deem important and useful from an endless ocean of information."

I might overlook extremely important intelligence, or the intelligence I obtain might only be a part of the complete intelligence and be misinterpreted. Furthermore, I might possess detailed knowledge of my abilities and be able to devise a scheme to mislead me with false intelligence.

So don't ask me everything.

If you rely too much on my intelligence, it might one day lead you to utter ruin.

That's all bullshit.

The so-called ability to obtain information out of thin air is nothing more than making wild claims based on information obtained from movies and cloud comics combined with the current situation... But this world is a newly born universe that split off from the movie universe, and many subtle aspects are different.

Moreover, with itself as the big butterfly, many future developments will be different.

If you pretend to know everything and be right about everything, you'll be exposed soon enough.

Moreover, the existence of someone who knows everything will make anyone, whether friend, enemy, or stranger, feel uneasy.

Deliberately belittling yourself and fabricating a less impressive identity can actually lower others' guard and reduce their vigilance towards you.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Qing finished speaking, he saw Tony subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief and relax a lot.

But then he frowned.

Although Gu Qing said that his abilities were not as amazing as people imagined, so far, there had been no cases of inaccurate intelligence. Even if it was not 100% accurate, it was highly likely to be accurate.

In other words, the probability of his anti-demon armor being destroyed in future battles against demons is still very high.

(If only this guy were a little more knowledgeable!)

Tony couldn't help but sigh.

He knew, of course, that Gu Qing was joking about graduating from elementary school, but even a top student couldn't visually identify the specific data of the Mark armor, let alone the high-tech features from various industries involved.

(Wait, knowledge...)

Suddenly, Tony seemed to remember something, and a smile appeared on his face. "Gu Qing, there's a long-term business deal, wanna do it?"

"You want me to participate in the creation of the anti-ghost armor?"

"You used your abilities to spy on me again?"

"Yes, it's just a guess," Gu Qing said with a slight smile. "It's not hard to guess, is it?"

"Alright, now that you know, shall we come?"

Tony shrugged and extended an invitation, "Of course, I will pay you a fee commensurate with your net worth."

"I earn hundreds of millions every minute, are you sure you can hire me?"

Gu Qing's amused smile made Tony's lips twitch.

They use the money they earn to inflate their own worth, and then try to take advantage of themselves.

Damn it, I really want to punch this guy.

"Just kidding!"

Just as Tony was about to say something, Gu Qing spread his hands and laughed, "Although I was joking when I said I only graduated from elementary school, with my knowledge, I really can't participate in the construction of these high-tech projects."

"I don't need your advice. After I build the armor, I will show you all the functions, and then you can see in what situations these functions have failed in the future."

"Imitating a cat to draw a tiger..."

Gu Qing nodded slightly and said, "That's a good suggestion. With your wisdom, even if it's just a description of a phenomenon, you can deduce the specific process and calculate the flaws... Well, as long as the price is right and you provide good food and drink, there won't be any problem."

"Then shall we come to my company now?"

"Tomorrow, someone else is coming to see me later."

"S.H.I.E.L.D."

"Ah."

Seeing Gu Qing nod in agreement, Tony pondered for a while before saying, "Frey mentioned a Superboy project to me and wants me to join."

"Yes, this plan is great."

Are you suggesting I join?

Tony looked into Gu Qing's eyes and said, "At first, I didn't care much about his Superboy plan. I thought that no matter what happened, I, Iron Man, could solve it. But now... I realize that there are so many crises in the world, and many things that even Iron Man can't solve. I've started to seriously think about his plan."

But I had lingering concerns and couldn't make a decision.

Because S.H.I.E.L.D. is an official organization, forming a super-soldier team under their umbrella would likely turn it into a tool for the higher-ups to profit at their own expense.

"Do you think Fury didn't think about these issues?"

While Gu Qing was internally wondering whether Tony would side with the government in the Sokovia Accords, he said with an unchanged expression, "Although that bald-headed guy is paranoid and doesn't trust anyone, his determination to protect the Earth and all of humanity is real. He won't sit idly by and watch such a super-soldier team become a tool for politicians to pursue their own interests; that would have too great an impact on the existing structure of the Earth."

"But didn't you say he was doing some very dangerous things in private?"

"That's true, but these are all necessary things. If he doesn't do them, many people will die."

Gu Qing's words were not false at all.

Although Fury messes up a lot in the movie, and even directly becomes the fuse for major events... such as researching the Tesseract attracting the Chitauri, and the Insight Project almost being taken over by Hydra to become a force to suppress dissent and eliminate all opposition.

But these things are just a drop in the ocean compared to everything Fury has done.

"Well, it seems I underestimated that bald-headed guy."

Tony shrugged, deciding not to pursue the matter further.

He would definitely conduct thorough investigations and confirmations before making a decision on such a major matter.

He nodded slightly and continued, "If the Superboy project is established, will you join?"

"Ok?"

Gu Qing paused for a moment, then scoffed when she saw Tony's serious expression. "Really? You think someone like me, who always loses money no matter what I do, is cut out to be a hero?"

Or are you planning to hire me with money?

This could really bankrupt you.

"Okay, I guess I was overthinking it."

Tony clicked his tongue and revealed his true purpose, "The person I've set my sights on is Kyojuro Rengoku, so..."

Go find him!

Gu Qing said, "Although we, who came here alone, have united, we only unite against the enemy when we are persecuted because of our transmigrator status. There is no superior-subordinate relationship, nor do we have the right to interfere with others."

At most, people who are on good terms with each other will help each other out.

If you want him to join you, you'll have to convince him yourself.

"OK, if that's the case, then there's no problem."

"Is there anything else?"

"My goods..."

"Call a truck over, I'll load your things up for you, and you can take them back yourself. Or I can deliver them to your company tomorrow?"

"Then send it over tomorrow!"

"Ok."

……

After the deal was settled, Tony took his leave.

Gu Qing lit another cigarette, a smile appearing on his face.

Things are progressing more smoothly than expected.

Being able to personally participate in the construction of the anti-ghost armor would make time management much smoother.

[Ding! Your C-rank, one-star doll "Zero Excess" has died!]

[Ding! Your C-rank, three-star doll "Rokuro" has died!]

[Ding! Your C-rank 5-star doll "Guhuoniao" has died!]

Hearing the voice that suddenly rang in his mind, Gu Qing turned around, his smile turning cold.

He strolled into the shop and calmed down to examine the situation.

"Ghost Rider again..."

By accessing the memories of the deceased doll through the system, Gu Qing learned the truth.

With Rokuro and Rui dying one after another, Akaza also suffered a great defeat. Rei, who is the fourth Lower Moon but is extremely timid, sought help from Rokuro, the second Upper Moon, and Ubume, the former first Upper Moon, to deal with the impending danger.

Then, Ghost Rider appeared.
