American comics start with asking Iron Man a question.

But now it seems that when Ant-Man gets small enough, his destructive power is off the charts, and his threat level rises to an extremely terrifying level.

Iron Man, Captain America, none of them will do.

It's possible that, aside from Thor's body, it might be immune to the opponent's thing that can enlarge organs, after all, it's a "divine body".

But who else can stop them?

“Natasha, what Betty Ross said about the miniature missiles inside the needles... clearly, that was Hankpym too! He hid them in the syringes and killed someone.”

“You know that person; he should also be a member of the Avengers, which is why you went to Betty Ross for analysis.”

Hawkeye Barton spoke seriously to Black Widow from the side.

“A very difficult method to defend against,” Thor said with an air of arrogance. “However, it won’t work on me, because I’m filled with lightning! If he dares to go in, he’ll never come out!”

"Hank Pym, you've invented something truly impressive!" Tony Stark couldn't help but exclaim.

For Tony Stark to say something like "impressive" is an extremely high compliment.

"Shouldn't we be discussing how to prevent this from happening in the first place?" Dr. Banner quickly interrupted their "irrelevant" conversation.

He stared intently at Black Widow. "You're an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and that dead Hope was also an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. So if what you're saying is true, and the quiz system really does foreshadow the future, then please make sure Hope doesn't die, and don't let her go to Ukraine on a mission."

The title still tells everyone the whole story, from beginning to end.

Hank Pym seeks revenge on S.H.I.E.L.D. because his daughter died.

“Even if you don’t say it, we will go back and confirm this with Nick Fury, our director.”

Black Widow nodded and answered Dr. Banner seriously.

The matter of Hank Pym killing Hulk is that simple, there's nothing more to say.

Just don't let Hope die.

But even bigger questions remain unanswered for Tony Stark and the others.

"You've probably noticed it too, right? There are a lot of contradictions in this footage," Tony Stark said seriously to everyone.

"In the footage, I was already dead, and Patton was dead too. This is very illogical."

"What's even more absurd is that Romanov, you hadn't even joined the Avengers back then! This future is actually a part of the past!"

Upon hearing Tony Stark's words, everyone present except Dr. Banner frowned deeply.

Black Widow and Hawkeye, in particular, were even more puzzled.

They had both joined the Avengers long ago, but until now, they had never encountered what was shown in the video.

But the time depicted in the video is before they joined the project.

This doesn't make sense at all.

"And that Agent Hope, that's equally illogical!" Black Widow chimed in after a moment of thought. "As far as I know, Hope is still alive and well! Could they be two different people?"

“They’re both Hank Pym’s daughters, and they have the same name, so they’re obviously the same person,” Captain America said with certainty. “Unless Hank Pym had two daughters and gave them the same name.”

That's obviously impossible.

Everyone fell silent; this, too, was a contradiction so enormous that it was impossible to explain.

“We encountered Hank Pym’s option in the last round of questions. Judging from Commander Fury’s performance, he is not actually very familiar with Hank Pym.”

"But if Hank Pym's daughter really is a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, then Director Fury should be very familiar with Hank Pym."

"Every agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. undergoes a detailed background check!"

Black Widow spoke again.

This caused everyone present to furrow their brows like old chrysanthemums blooming in late autumn.

It doesn't make sense anywhere.

"Yes! That must be it! If that's the case, then everything makes sense!"

A moment later, Tony Stark's eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his thigh hard.

The tone of voice was also a very confident tone.

"Stark, what's on your mind? Tell us quickly!" Thor asked immediately, full of curiosity.

Everyone else turned their gaze to Tony Stark, equally eager to know the answer to the question.

"Romanov, do you remember what I said during the last round of questions? The future predicted by the question-answering system is the future of a parallel world!"

Tony Stark said, his eyes gleaming.

"Stark, you mean that in that other parallel universe, Hope was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, and that she died in the line of duty!"

Captain America immediately realized what was going on.

The others present also suddenly realized what was going on.

Stark is right. The footage in front of us has a crucial premise: Hope is an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

This is the starting point for everything.

It is also the origin of all contradictions.

This is precisely what causes the logical inconsistency:

If this footage is from the past, then Hope is still alive and well. If it's from the future, then Black Widow and her team weren't even S.H.I.E.L.D. agents when the incident occurred!

But what if, in another parallel universe, Hope was actually a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and died in a past mission?

All contradictions and irrationalities are then given a reasonable explanation.

Sometimes that's just how it is; when the truth is revealed, everyone finds that it's actually quite simple.

“A simple assumption that resolves all the contradictions at once—that assumption is often the correct one.” Hawkeye Barton nodded. “Stark, once we get back and confirm Hope’s situation with Commander Fury, we’ll be able to confirm the validity of your theory.”

"Barton, remember to let me know once you've confirmed it," Tony Stark immediately said to Hawkeye, his expression serious. "This is very important!"

Yes, that's definitely important.

Even if Tony Stark's "parallel universe theory" is reasonable and logical, it is still somewhat unconvincing if it is just a pure theory without factual support.

However, in the past, there was never any opportunity to verify this theory, so Tony Stark naturally had no way to do so.

That's the only way.

But now, that opportunity has finally arrived!

"If the existence of parallel universes can truly be verified, it would be a groundbreaking achievement in science! A revolutionary breakthrough! It would be worthy of a Nobel Prize!"

Dr. Banner said with a hint of excitement.

[Question: For which of the following reasons did Tony Stark, Iron Man, self-destruct his entire Iron Man armor in one fell swoop?]

[A. A major battle against the Ten Commandments gang, in order to kill their enhanced members.]

[B. The Iron Man armor was controlled by Ultron and was forced to self-destruct.]

[C. To put on a fireworks show for Pepper Potts.]

[D. His mind was controlled by Loki, and he was forced to self-destruct his armor.]

[Friendly reminder: Those who answer correctly will be rewarded with the Lingbo Weibu skill;]

Those who answer incorrectly will have one attribute of their own deducted randomly, including but not limited to knowledge, experience, skills, possessions, etc.

While everyone was discussing, a new question appeared, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone glanced at the question and showed expressions of great surprise.

Iron Man's Iron Man armor is his greatest asset, but in the future, his opponent will actually self-destruct the armor?

Tony Stark himself was even more surprised than the others.

No one knew better than him how much he cared about the Iron Man suit. It turned out that he was suffering from palladium poisoning, a life-threatening condition, and that wearing the Iron Man suit meant certain death.

Even under those circumstances, he was still unwilling to give up the Iron Man armor.

This shows how much they value the Iron Man armor, to the point that it has become a kind of faith.

But now the answer system tells him that in the future, he actually self-destructed his armor?

"A self-destructing armor? Stark, I have to say, that's a truly insane and extravagant act." Black Widow couldn't help but glance at Tony Stark.

“You’re right, Stark, this suit of armor of yours must have cost tens of millions, right?” Hawkeye Barton also glanced at Tony Stark.

"Tens of millions? You underestimate my status as a super-rich man. Don't even think about getting it for less than a few hundred million!" Tony Stark said to Hawkeye with a matter-of-fact expression.

Apart from Thor, who wasn't very familiar with Earth's monetary system, everyone present was secretly astonished.

They knew the Iron Man armor was expensive, but they didn't expect it to be this expensive.

One unit costs several hundred million!

So Iron Man is currently wearing super luxury items worth hundreds of millions?

"Alright, everyone, let's get back to the question." Captain America pulled everyone back with a serious expression. "Let's look at option A first: Starks versus the Ten Commandments?"

"The Ten Commandments' power enhancer?" Thor immediately recalled, "The guy on Air Force One whose body could heat up?"

That person left a very deep impression on Thor.

"Eric Savin, a former army lieutenant colonel, was crippled by a landmine during a mission. Then, he transformed into an enhanced user capable of hand-to-hand combat with armored vehicles."

Tony Stark added from the side.

Chapter 127 Iron Armor as Fireworks

In the previous round of questions, Black Widow used her Sharingan to accurately copy the enhanced user, and after answering the questions, she shared the portrait with Tony Stark.

Once Tony Stark returned, he immediately used Jarvis to search the world for that guy and quickly discovered his true identity.

Tony Stark immediately launched an investigation into the man.

Unfortunately, as of now, that guy is still just a bedridden cripple with a broken leg and an arm.

That's it.

However, no more useful clues could be found.
