Offer blocks to the end times

He then led Jarvis into the house, casually adding, "On Friday, search for this person's information."

“Hey, Friday was here,” Thousand Finger pointed to the orb of light next to him. Tony seemed to choke for a moment, but then tapped his watch. Another voice rang out, “Unable to scan, no similar person.”

"Don't worry about me," Thousand Hands waved his hand, casually slapping Friday's light orb into the light screen next to him. Instantly, a bunch of facilities around him came to life, and countless three-dimensional light and shadow figures appeared on the side, followed by various weapons. "Lord Tony, please retreat quickly, this person is extremely dangerous!"

“Oh, so S.H.I.E.L.D. has already been notified,” Thousand Hands glanced at the spirit computer in his hand. “But now S.H.I.E.L.D. only has a few small fry left. It’s a pity about Spider-Man; he was my favorite character.”

“You,” Tony’s face flashed with pain and disorientation, then he fell silent, “Friday, withdraw all defenses and begin analyzing this code.”

"Yes," the female voice responded, and the surrounding weapons were put away. Then, they began scanning Jarvis in a peculiar way. After a while, the results appeared: "100% similarity to the programming pattern left by Mr. Jarvis. Highest privileges confirmed. Tony Stark, confirm..."

While conducting the experiment, Senju looked around boredly. He thought to himself, "The Iron Man of today is so different from the playboy I remember from the movies!" Shaking his head, Senju began to sense Spider-Man's presence in this world. His favorite character in the Marvel universe was Spider-Man, though he'd forgotten his name—was it William or Tom? Actually, he couldn't even remember what he looked like.

After accessing the world's memories, Thousand Hands searched for information about Spider-Man online and quickly created a 3D phantom of Spider-Man in his final moments. However, when Thousand Hands tried to revive him, he discovered that Spider-Man's soul was fixed in a state of death by the Six Paths Law. But this was no problem for Thousand Hands, and he easily severed the chains.

"Peter Parker is back!" As Senju spoke, a cold wind swept around, and the sky instantly darkened. Then, a hole opened up, and Senju pulled a phantom figure from the world of the dead. However, it was probably just one person, as the Goddess of Death on the other side did not react.

In any case, no conflict is good. Countless dust particles filled the phantom's body from the void, and then solidified. Spider-Man was resurrected. However, to Thousand Hands' slight disappointment, this Spider-Man didn't have much faith power. "Indeed, I should still look for Captain America."

"Huh?" Tony turned his head to look this way, then couldn't turn his head back. "Peter?!"

"Mr. Stark, what's this?" Spider-Man stood there, somewhat bewildered, looking at his hands. "I... I'm alive?"

"How is this possible?!" Tony walked over in a daze, then tried to grab Peter's arm, then his face. "It's actually real, but can people erased by the Infinity Stones really be resurrected? But this doesn't look fake."

“Mr. Stark, you look much older,” Spider-Man said excitedly. His quick wit led him to a sudden realization: “I remember we failed in the end. Could it be that we collected all six Infinity Stones and everyone was resurrected? How much time has passed since then?”

“No, no, the Infinity Stones were destroyed by Thanos, and five years have passed,” Tony said as he examined the stone. Spider-Man looked surprised. “Then how did I come back to life?! And five years? No wonder you look so much older, sir.”

“That’s maturity!” Tony replied casually, then looked at Thousand Hands beside him. “What did you do to him?”

"Resurrection? Isn't that a simple matter?" Senju rolled her eyes. Reversing time, traversing worlds, and possessing immortality were all commonplace here. Why was she surprised now?

Humans are supposed to be resurrected, or rather, it would be strange if no one here were to be resurrected after five years. Is it because the rest are just small fry?

"Impossible! People erased by the Infinity Stones can only be repaired by the Infinity Stones. There's no other way!" Tony said earnestly, but his attention was still on Peter. Looking at him, Tony shed tears.

"Infinity Stones, huh? They are indeed very powerful. The Six Paths Laws restrict resurrection here, but once the Six Paths Laws are broken, resurrecting people is still super easy," Thousand Hands said casually, glancing at the two people over there. "If you don't believe me, you can check it carefully. Anyway, it's Peter Parker's soul and Peter Parker's body combined to form Peter Parker."

“I think my memory is very clear, and my body is fine,” Spider-Man said, shooting webs. “By the way, Mr. Stark, have the others been resurrected as well?”

“No,” Tony shook his head, looking at the light screen Jarvis had provided, then looked at Thousand Hands, “Who exactly are you? Why are you after me?”

“Actually, I’m a time-travel merchant. Finding you is fate. You pay the price, and I’ll give you goods: technology, magic, power crystals, magical items—anything useful is fine,” Thousand Hands said casually, then looked at Peter beside him. “Life is also a commodity.”

“Time-space merchants, huh?” Tony paused for a moment, then looked at Thousand Hands. “So, if I want the Infinity Stones, what price do I need?”

"The Infinity Stones, huh? You really did choose a cheap one. With them, you could indeed restore half of the life forms that were wiped out in this world. It's much cheaper than resurrecting them one by one," Thousand Hands nodded. Although this worldline didn't have them, other worldlines did. Thousand Hands, who had entered this world, was already a 'legal citizen,' and traveling between Marvel's parallel universes was super easy. "Well then, I won't ask for more. One stone for ten thousand star systems is already very cheap."

"Ten thousand star systems? What kind of star system are you talking about?" Peter stammered, and Thousand Hands gave him a strange look. "Having mastered all the Infinity Stones means having mastered the entire universe. Ten thousand star systems is quite a lot, isn't it? Actually, it's at least one galaxy. I've given you a huge discount. After all, a galaxy has hundreds of billions of stars. Ten thousand is a blood-spitting clearance sale!"

“But!” Peter started to say something, but Tony stopped him. “It’s not expensive, but we can’t afford it. But resurrection can’t be that expensive, right? How much would it cost if I wanted to resurrect Dr. Strange?”

"The price per unit is indeed not expensive, but trillions of life forms have died in the universe. Who is this doctor you're talking about?" There are many doctors here, and all the powerful ones are doctors. Who knows who this Dr. Lanchi is?

Chapter 1601 An Exorbitant Demand

"You didn't know?" Tony said, then waved his hand, and a screen of light appeared in front of Senju. After looking at it for a while, Senju suddenly realized, "Oh, it's Doctor Strange. I know that, but a god-level sorcerer must at least be..."

Thousand Hands pondered for a moment, "At least one treasure of Thor's hammer level, or a large amount of new technology or magical knowledge would also be acceptable. For example, your complete set of armor technology plus all the technology of Stark Industries, can you provide that?"

“Of course I can produce it, the question is, can you trust me?” As he spoke, Tony began to don his nanotech armor. Thousand Hands rolled his eyes, pointed to the armor over there, and then Iron Man’s armor instantly turned into countless tiny particles that scattered out. “Not bad technology, it can even resist divine power, but the resistance level is not high.”

"Actually..." Spider-Man was speechless. He knew that Tony had fought Thanos several times while wearing this suit of armor. Thousand Hands rolled his eyes. Indeed, the suit of armor was impressive, but Thousand Hands had used matter manipulation, a combination of magic and superpowers. It would be easy to subdue Iron Man, wouldn't it? Spider-Man also reached out, "Don't hurt Mr. Stark!"

Seeing the spider web spraying towards him, Senju breathed a sigh of relief, and the web flipped back to bind him. "Don't be so irritable. I'm just a businessman. If you don't want to buy, I won't force you."

As she spoke, Senju had already absorbed Iron Man's nanotech armor and put it away, then threw it into the research institute as a research item. This time it was the mechanical research institute where Ishii was located. "Consider this as payment for reviving Spider-Man."

"Isn't this just forced buying and selling?!" the little spider shouted from inside the web. Thousand Hands shook his head helplessly. "No, it isn't. You two don't seem to have any bad opinions about my goods, and you've received them, so isn't it normal for me to ask for compensation?"

"Since you are so powerful, you should also take on the corresponding responsibility! The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility!" Little Spider shouted. Thousand Hands immediately shook his head. "You are right, but I am not from this universe. Even if I am powerful, I have no responsibility. The universe is the one that is the way it is now, and that is your responsibility."

“Alright, Peter, that’s enough,” Tony shook his head, then looked at Thousand Hands. “I’ve agreed to the deal. A series of documents will be sent to you afterward.”

"Yes, but now, I want to see Dr. Strange!"

“OK,” Thousand Hands snapped his fingers. The eyes of the two people opposite him seemed to twitch. Then the same process happened. Doctor Strange was resurrected, but his first words after being resurrected were wrong: “Who are you? This is not the future I saw!”

“Oh,” Thousand Hands ignored him, looking at Doctor Strange. Tony was also quite agreeable, nodding, and several stacks of encrypted files appeared in front of Thousand Hands. “These are the technologies you need, Jarvis, make backups.”

“No need for all that trouble,” Senju said, slightly beckoning with his finger. The files were then 'transferred' into Senju’s spiritual computer, and simultaneously analyzed by the computer as they were being sent into the world.

“OK, transaction complete,” Senju nodded, looking at the rapid analysis results in the spirit computer. It was better than Academy City’s technology, but not as good as the machine-type technology. Senju nodded and casually gave Iron Man a complete healing jutsu, “Here’s some after-sales service for you.”

"Huh?" Feeling the body that seemed much younger and stronger, Tony was stunned for a moment, then pulled out a glowing object from his pocket. "This works too?!"

“It’s simple. I adjusted your body to the state of a twenty-year-old,” Thousand Hands reached out and took the miniature powerhouse from Tony’s hand. “Consider this compensation!”

"Who are you? I don't see your future!" Doctor Strange looked at Thousand Hands with some wariness. Thousand Hands glanced at him. "Observing the future, huh? But the future is endless, it's normal to miss things. I'm a merchant from another world. What do you want?"

"A merchant from another world, huh?" Doctor Strange glanced at Thousand Hands, then waved his hand, tearing apart the web binding Spider-Man beside him. "Did you resurrect me and him? But how did you break through the Infinity Stones' seal to resurrect us? Do you possess the Infinity Stones?"

“I can get it, but you can’t afford it,” Senju shrugged. The expressions of the others changed. Doctor Strange’s hand moved slightly and then let go. Senju took out a modified version of Ainz Ooal Gown’s Staff. “But you can check out this low-end version.”

"Infinity Stones?!" The people present were shocked, then took a closer look. "Wait, although they feel very similar, this one has seven. Could there be a seventh Infinity Stone?! Is this the key to solving everything?!"

"This isn't an Infinity Stone," Senju said, waving his hand as the group prepared to fight. He then explained in detail, "This is a replica of the Infinity Gauntlet that I made. It only has one ten-thousandth of the power of the original, and its application is limited. It can only revive creatures on Earth that died because of the Infinity Stones, and it will be completely destroyed after it's used up. As for the price, it's a bit pricey."

"You can resurrect humans on Earth?!" Tony's eyes gleamed. "How much? Name a price we can afford. Don't mention star systems or anything like that, we can't afford that."

"Don't worry, I don't need a star system this time," Thousand Hands rolled his eyes inwardly. If he wanted a star system, he could just go to some remote corner and dig it up himself. How long would it take to buy one?! "Because I need to revive the life forms on Earth, I need half of all the valuable things on Earth, such as technology, magic, and treasures. Of course, this is something you can't decide on your own. You can discuss it with everyone in the world."

"Half? That's an outrageous price," the three of them said, their faces grim. After thinking for a moment, Senju said, "How about one-third? That would be a significant price reduction."

However, the three of them still looked grim. The price reduction was indeed significant, but it was a price they couldn't afford. Tony confirmed again, "All of Earth's technology, magic, and treasures? What are the standards? You probably aren't interested in those low-level technologies, right?"

“That’s not wrong,” Senju nodded, then thought for a moment and started counting, “Ideally, it would be technology at your level, magic at Doctor Strange’s level, treasures like Thor’s hammer and the Tesseract, well, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little lower.”

Chapter 1602 S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Minions

"The Tesseract? Thor's hammer?" Tony wanted to spit a load of rubbish in his face. There were only a handful of those treasures in the entire universe. "Do you even know which Infinity Stones are?"

"Of course I know," Senju replied. Although he had long forgotten, he still knew some common knowledge after reading the universe's memories. "Power, space, reality, soul, time, mind—these six, right? Is there a problem?"

“No, it’s fine,” Tony shook his head, and Senju nodded as well. Actually, Senju was quite curious as to why he couldn’t read Tony’s thoughts, nor could he read Doctor Strange’s thoughts. The only one he could read was Spider-Man’s thoughts, but even that didn’t know as much about the universe as Senju had.

Unfortunately, there was too much common knowledge about the universe, and Senju only glanced at it. Even so, Senju was still amazed by the treasures here. There were too many powerful treasures in this universe. Those naturally born gods with great power could create all kinds of powerful treasures at will using the laws. Or, when gods fell, they transformed into planets rich in energy. The fluctuating laws sometimes condensed into treasures that dominated the entire universe. In comparison, Earth was very lacking.

After all, while this place may be the 'center' of the universe, it's only the center of the plot; the truly useful things aren't actually...

Of course, Senju is still a bit timid. There are many powerful players outside, and Senju is not sure of his own strength here. He will wait and see in the beginner village on Earth for the time being.

In truth, Senju was still quite puzzled. He had read some Marvel comics sporadically before, and there seemed to be many powerful figures in them, but how did they allow Thanos to obtain the six Infinity Stones and wipe out half of all life in the universe? Was it because there were too many timelines?

However, while they were thinking, Friday and Jarvis simultaneously reminded each other, "Sir, Mr. Steve and Miss Natasha have arrived outside."

"They're only arriving now, and they're just two small fry," Thousand Hands muttered to himself as he listened to the voice. After all, he knew that the AI ​​here had notified S.H.I.E.L.D., but these two members who were beyond human capabilities actually showed up. Note that they were beyond human capabilities. These two could handle ordinary people, but against Thousand Hands, well, Thousand Hands would just stand there and let them beat him up!

"Let them in," Tony said casually. He had just been talking to Doctor Strange, and the main point wasn't whether or not to buy the staff, or even if that thing was really that useful. However, they really couldn't decide on the price, so it was perfect that the S.H.I.E.L.D. people were here.

A moment later, two people entered from outside. Thousand Hands knew that the man was Captain America. Although he didn't remember exactly what he looked like, the strong faith and unwavering spirit emanating from him, along with the five-star shield on his back, all pointed to him as Captain America.

After meeting him, Senju finally understood how this person could fight against so many powerful gods. His willpower combined with his faith could weaken the enemy's attacks. In fact, if he knew the method of becoming a god through faith, he would already be a powerful god.

After all, for the past few decades, he has been promoted as a symbol of 'America', with hundreds of millions of people believing in him for decades, including hundreds of thousands of fanatical followers. Once the divine fire is ignited, he will surely become a great god. Unfortunately, he doesn't know how to use it and can only be in a passive state.

But this one, Senju can use! So he immediately smiled broadly, then looked at another woman. Hmm, this one looked very familiar, Natasha, basically a pillar of Marvel. However, although she is very famous outside, in this world, she is a secret agent, so she doesn't have much faith power at all. She has only had her body enhanced a few times. After glancing at the woman, who looked to be an old lady of unknown age, Senju lost even more interest.

"Tony, over here..." The two men had just started to speak when they saw Doctor Strange and Spider-Man, and their words stopped abruptly. Their mouths gaped wider and wider, and then Thousand Hands heard two cracking sounds. The two men's jaws were dislocated, but they still pointed in their direction in shock.

"What a sight!" Thousand Hands snapped a photo of the two with his phone. The flash and click woke them up, and with a pat on the chin, their dislocated jaws were healed. "Tony, if I'm not mistaken, isn't that Spider-Man and Doctor Strange? What are they doing here?! And who is this person? Is he also someone who died because of Thanos?"

“No,” Tony glanced at Thousand Hands with a complicated look, then began to explain. The two men looked at Thousand Hands with great excitement, but when Tony mentioned the price, they fell silent. It wasn’t because they couldn’t save the universe, but because it was too expensive. They couldn’t afford a third of Earth’s treasures.

Captain America wanted to say something, but Natasha stopped him. It was mostly about justice and selflessness, but the other party was a businessman, and people like that really disliked that kind of talk. If the deal failed, they couldn't afford the consequences. Besides, after looking at the chat history, she knew how to communicate with this kind of person.

“I don’t know your name yet. I’m Natasha Romanoff, and this is Steve Rogers. We’re members of S.H.I.E.L.D., and we hope to be your guests.” Natasha extended her hand, and Thousand Hands shook it back before letting go. “Hello, I’m Thousand Hands, a passing-by merchant from another world. You can buy goods from me.”

"Ten thousand star systems can buy one Infinity Stone?" Natasha asked to confirm. Thousand Hands nodded. "That's right. Although the procurement process is a bit troublesome, ten thousand is the lowest price."

“I understand, it is indeed a very cheap price,” Natasha nodded. In the grand scheme of the universe, star systems are indeed very small, and the other party didn’t want anything with life. There are plenty of lifeless star systems in the universe, and Earth doesn’t need to pay for this. “What price would I need to resurrect Nick Fury and Phil Coulson?”

“Nick Fury? Phil Coulson? Those are familiar names. Do you have any information on them?” Thousand Hands looked at Tony beside him, who nodded. “Jarvis!”

The two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents looked at Tony, but Thousand Hands was complaining, "With Jarvis, we can go home on Friday!" Then two screens appeared in front of Thousand Hands, displaying the two agents' information. Thousand Hands then realized who they were. "Oh, so it's the bald director and a Captain America fan. What's the price for these two? Captain America, I want your light, and a piece of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s collection."

Chapter 1603 Time Changes and Things Shift

"Light?" Captain America asked in confusion. Thousand Hands nodded. "What those who worship you, believe in you, and support you bring you—that's what I see as light. Of course, you can also call it faith."

"Faith? This guy wants to become..."

"The Emperor?" Tony casually remarked sarcastically. Thousand Hands nodded in agreement. "While I don't know how powerful your God is, if Captain America fully absorbs all this power, he could surpass Thor."

"That powerful?" Tony exclaimed in surprise, then looked at Thousand Hands. "Do I possess that faith?"

“There are some, but not many,” Senju shook his head slightly, then looked at the two of them, “What are your thoughts?”

“SHIELD’s items are kept very securely, I can’t make the decision, and as for Captain America’s light, I think we should exchange it for something else,” Natasha shook her head after hearing Thousand Hands’ words. She instinctively felt something was wrong. Thousand Hands also shook his head. “Are you going to exchange it for US dollars? There’s a limit to being funny. If you’re rude again, I’ll just leave. You can go find a way to revive yourselves!”

“I agree,” Captain America said after thinking for a while. Natasha nodded helplessly. “Since the captain agrees, I have no choice but to agree as well. However, many items need to be resurrected by the director to be retrieved from the warehouse.”

“No need for that trouble, I’ll get the list of valuable items from S.H.I.E.L.D. soon,” said Senju, as he used the Spirit Computer to search for S.H.I.E.L.D.’s collection.

“No, those are all on independent networks, and some of the valuable ones are only recorded on paper and can’t be found online,” Natasha reminded Thousand Hands as he pointed to the electronic device on his arm. Thousand Hands shook his head. “Don’t worry, this isn’t a real network either, but causal magic. You can find anything related to it. Oh, found it. There’s so much hidden there. Oh, such a huge Magic Crystal Heart, and so many artifacts? Tsk, you must have robbed quite a few people. I’m starting to regret it. Technically, only the rune technology is passable; the rest is forgettable.”

While looking at S.H.I.E.L.D.'s incredibly rich collection, Thousand Hands regretted his actions. There were so many useful things in there! There were several Star Cores, which are crystals containing the power of an entire star. They were practically rolling in money. Oh well, he'd extort them later.

“Then, I’ll take this one,” Thousand Hands pointed to the next item on the list, and an ancient mirror fell out of the void. It was a celestial artifact. Although it was surprising to see a celestial artifact in the Marvel world, anything was possible here.

After refining it slightly, Thousand Hands was surprised to find that it was actually the Kunlun Mirror, with the ability to travel through the void. Yes, the void that Thousand Hands understood, the isolation zone of dimensions. Perhaps that's why it came here. However, according to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s records, it is a mirror that cannot be reflected, a special item with no danger level.

Then Thousand Hands snapped his fingers, and the bald chief and the extra—no, Coulson—appeared there, stunned for a moment. Then they continued their explanation, while Thousand Hands secretly helped them check the collection and replaced some counterfeit products.

After a brief discussion, the bald-headed director looked at Thousand Hands seriously and waved his hand domineeringly, "Ten treasures from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s collection will be exchanged for your staff. From now on, you will always be a friend of S.H.I.E.L.D.!"

"Goodbye, farewell," Sensing the bald director's overconfident thoughts, Thousand Hands cupped his hands and disappeared instantly. This guy, although he was already dark in the movie, he seems even more ruthless now. He actually wanted to use the name of humanity to subdue Thousand Hands and make him obey orders, and also wanted Thousand Hands to contribute for free, plus join S.H.I.E.L.D. as a henchman, and the treasure could also be returned.

Then they even wanted to summon Captain Marvel to suppress Thousand Hands, making Thousand Hands contribute to the universe and bring huge benefits to S.H.I.E.L.D. But Thousand Hands doesn't have that much time to deal with them. Do they really think they're good people?!

The people here were completely dumbfounded. They were just talking fine a moment ago, how could the person have disappeared in the blink of an eye? Then they felt the thoughts appearing in their minds, and their faces immediately turned ugly.

Thousand Hands, having left this place, was too lazy to deal with S.H.I.E.L.D., but business still needed to be done. In any case, as long as 90% of the intelligent life on the planet agreed, Thousand Hands could do business directly with the planet, offering half the price of the world's treasures.

But the world's reaction caught him off guard. 50% of people readily agreed, but 30% were loudly cursing, complaining that the gods had come too late. After all, countless people had prayed to the gods in the past five years, but to no avail!

Another 20% believe that the current population on Earth is just right. There were too many people before, leading to various pressures. The current situation is the best. If those people were resurrected, their work and lives would be severely disrupted. Many have already remarried! Senju is powerless to change this situation; not resurrecting them invites complaints, and resurrecting them also invites complaints!
