"Shit! Lu, you can't pique my interest only to disappoint me, that's unethical!" Tony yelled unhappily.

Africa is just too vast. Without a specific target, even if we use Stark Industries satellites and have Jarvis search 24/7, it would still take years to find it!

However, he plans to develop in this direction after returning, sending some of Stark Industries' operations to Africa as a preliminary step, and taking the opportunity to search for vibranium.

In fact, influenced by the events in New York, Tony had already created a replacement parts kit similar to the MK44 Hulkbuster armor.

However, technological upgrades and development require taking one step at a time; taking too big a step will cause you to hit a hurdle.

Tony is currently in the early stages of developing diverse technological updates for his Iron Man armor, and it will take some time and experience for the technology to advance further.

In Beijing, the capital of China, a large number of people dressed in black suits and wearing sunglasses loitered in Tianmen Square.

Their every move exuded professionalism and vigilance.

The middle-aged man at the head of the group had an extraordinary air about him; his sharp eyes seemed to see through everything and radiated a profound light.

He stood in the middle of the group, his posture upright and his presence commanding respect.

Behind him followed three men and two women, all dressed in black suits, with serious and focused expressions. No one spoke, and the whole group looked like a well-trained elite force.

A short while later, a capable young woman hurried out from the side, her steps light and her eyes firm.

She leaned close to the middle-aged man's ear and whispered something before quickly walking away.

"Everyone get ready, the target has already crossed the border," the middle-aged man said sternly.

"Chief, this doesn't seem to match the intelligence. She should have arrived long ago. Supergirl doesn't seem to have the speed to break through the atmosphere," the man wearing a six-hole green helmet said in a low voice.

“It shouldn’t be as powerful as rumored. Otherwise, based on the intelligence we’ve gathered, crossing the Pacific from Los Angeles should only take ten or twenty minutes.” The black-haired woman wearing a metal mask agreed.

The remaining people remained silent, but their expressions suggested they were inclined to believe the intelligence was inaccurate.

“You underestimate Western superhumans. You’ve all seen the video of the Battle of New York. Tell me, who here could do that?” The middle-aged man shook his head and spoke slowly.

"Weather Witch, can you ensure that tens of thousands of people are not injured in a hail of bullets?" He turned to look at the black-haired woman with the metal mask and asked.

"No, but I suspect the video is exaggerated." The black-haired woman in the metal mask shook her head and answered definitively.

She is the most destructive superhuman in the Super God Team, capable of controlling lightning, rain, and creating hurricanes out of thin air.

Her physical strength was sufficient to withstand ordinary firearms, but she couldn't shield ordinary people from all the bullets in the chaos.

The difference in speed was at least significant, which was what she found most unreal.

What kind of superpower principle allows one to withstand heat weapons and heavy firepower without taking damage, while still being able to focus on saving people? That's a bit too strong.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, they've arrived. Activate the signal guide." The middle-aged man tapped his earpiece and then shouted the order.

The men in black who had been loitering near Tianmen Square neatly pulled out specially made spotlights the size of fists and held them above their heads.

This lighting equipment is a technological aid developed by the Shenmao Bureau's R&D department, and it is exceptionally visible even during the day.

Hundreds of people simultaneously raising their lighting equipment created a truly spectacular scene.

About ten seconds later, a piercing sound of air being torn apart came from the horizon, and then two figures landed steadily in the marked location, Tianmen Square.

Chapter 37 The Great Eastern Power

Lu Yunmeng's iconic Homelander outfit shone brightly in the sunlight, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.

Her figure flashed like lightning, hurtling from afar, plummeting rapidly, and then landing steadily on the ground in a standard posture of kneeling on one knee and supporting herself with one hand.

She gave a thumbs-up and flashed a friendly smile at the crowd.

Tony Stark followed closely behind, and the MK3 Iron Man suit landed successfully with a "thud".

However, it seems that because of the speed, the heavy force caused him to step on the floor of Tianmen Square and create several cracks.

He stood up awkwardly, waved to the crowd that came to greet him, and said apologetically, "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to, this thing is a bit troublesome to operate."

He paused, then added, "If compensation is required, I'll accept it."

Tony was used to solving problems with money in America; as long as no one died, any trouble could be settled with money.

However, this is not America, but a mysterious Eastern power.

Upon arriving here for the first time as Iron Man, Tony felt a little nervous and uneasy.

“Relax, it was an accident, wasn’t it? No compensation is needed. My men can restore it to its original state in ten minutes.” A middle-aged man stepped forward, speaking fluent English with a smile.

His tone was gentle, clearly intended to ease Tony's tension.

Tony shrugged, a hint of mockery in his voice: "Well, where I'm from, this kind of vandalism would be left to a construction crew, as long as you pay them enough."

"It will only take five minutes." The middle-aged man smiled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of confidence.

Tony raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised by the answer. He shook his head, a hint of teasing in his voice: "Sounds like you're competing, but I like challenges."

The middle-aged man, unperturbed, stepped forward and shook Tony's hand, his tone carrying a hint of respect: "Hello, welcome to China, Mr. Stark. Or perhaps we should call you Iron Man now." Then, his gaze shifted to Lu Yunmeng, a flicker of surprise crossing his eyes.

Is this Supergirl?

His first impression was that she was very beautiful, perfectly matching the aesthetic standards of Eastern people.

With blond hair, blue eyes, and striking features, he looks every bit the Westerner. Does he really have half Chinese ancestry?

My second impression was of her youth; she looked like a college student.

However, cosmic rays activated her super genes, keeping both her appearance and physical functions at their best.

"Hello, Miss Lu, I am Zheng Xian, the current director of the Divine Spear Bureau. I am very pleased that you accepted the invitation to visit China."

The middle-aged man had a big smile on his face. Compared to his calm greeting to Tony, he was exceptionally enthusiastic towards Lu Yunmeng.

"Hello, Director Zheng, I'm very pleased to receive your invitation." Lu Yunmeng smiled and shook the other party's hand, her fluent Chinese flowing out like a professional news anchor.

Zheng Xian showed a look of surprise, while the members of the Fengshen team standing behind him were stunned.

Supergirl's Chinese is so fluent?

It's important to know that Chinese is one of the most difficult languages ​​to learn in the world. Its profound characters, complex contexts, and intonation variations deter many foreigners.

It's hard to imagine that a blond, blue-eyed Westerner could speak with such standard pronunciation, even with a regional accent.

In fact, Lu Yunmeng's Chinese ability stems from her memories of her past life.

Her hometown is north of the Yellow River, Mandarin is her mother tongue, and English is just a memory of her original self.

Therefore, switching between the two languages ​​felt completely natural to her.

"Oh, come on! Lu, you've been practicing Chinese behind my back? You've been planning this all along, haven't you!" Tony stared at Lu Yunmeng in surprise, as if examining some kind of prehistoric artifact.

He didn't understand Chinese at all. Before coming here, he had only learned a few simple greetings, such as "hello," "have you eaten?", "thank you," and "goodbye."

Even so, Tony still had to go through a lot of trouble.

“I know a lot more,” Lu Yunmeng said proudly, pointing to her brain.

"You have to teach me Chinese when you get back, it's a deal!" Tony said unwillingly. As a genius, he couldn't tolerate others having skills he didn't possess.

“Miss Lu, your Chinese is very standard, even more fluent than many locals,” Zheng Xian said in Chinese, his tone filled with admiration and sincerity.

According to the investigation data from the S.H.I.E.L.D., Supergirl should have never lived in China, but her Chinese is so fluent, which makes him very curious.

"As you know, my mother is from China. Although I wasn't born here, I grew up learning two languages."

Lu Yunmeng explained with a smile. Hearing the long-lost Mandarin Chinese, she felt an inexplicable sense of warmth.

“Your accent leans towards the capital. I remember your mother’s hometown should be Jinling, right?” Zheng Xian asked casually, narrowing his eyes.

"Um, I grew up in an orphanage. I didn't really want to talk about that experience. The old man who guarded the gate had a strong Northeastern accent."

Lu Yunmeng continued to fabricate her story without changing her expression.

In fact, her parents died when she was very young, and she grew up in an orphanage.

The old man who guards the welfare home is of Chinese descent and speaks with a northern accent, so there's nothing wrong with that.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought these things up." Zheng Xian patted his head and apologized sincerely.

"It's okay, everyone has curiosity." Lu Yunmeng shrugged, indicating that she didn't care.

Since being reborn into this world, how many people have investigated her, both openly and secretly?

"I must say, Miss Lu speaks such standard Chinese, it's very pleasant to listen to," Zheng Xian said with a smile, his face full of praise.

The visit of Supergirl and Iron Man to China is a momentous event. Although it doesn't rise to the level of national leaders, China attaches great importance to it and is doing its utmost to express goodwill.

The Divine Spear Bureau cleared out the bustling Tianmen Square and invited the two to have roast duck at the most authentic restaurant in the capital.

Tony ate with gusto, claiming that the Chinese food he used to eat in America was "dog shit."

The MK3 Iron Man Armor High-Speed ​​Flight Edition is detachable, making it a portable powered armor. It can be put on after being taken off, without requiring a special mechanical arm or venue.

This technology surpasses the level of Iron Man's technology during the same period in the original story.

The only problem was that it took a while to get dressed. At that moment, he was dressed in an expensive Armani suit and was feasting without any regard for his image.

Dinner parties are a popular way for Chinese people to connect and maintain relationships. The group chatted happily, with Zheng Xian and Lu Yunmeng being the main conversationalists.

He gave Lu Yunmeng a brief introduction to the Divine Spear Bureau, followed by several members of the Fengshen Battle Team.

Tony was curious about these superpowered individuals, but unfortunately, these people didn't seem to talk much.

Fortunately, Jung Hyun kept smoothing things over, and the two female superhumans, Weather Witch and Vector Grace Tan, would occasionally join the conversation, so the atmosphere was fairly good.

Lu Yunmeng roughly knew Zheng Xian's main purpose in inviting her.

It's very simple; it's a test of just how far the newly formed Fengshen team has come.

Lu Yunmeng was very surprised. In her fragmented memories, the Fengshen Team appeared in the Marvel Comics world.

The Weather Witch is skilled at controlling lightning, hurricanes, and some weather phenomena. She is a formidable fighter and likely belonged to the Celestial Empire, a superpowered organization, when she appeared.

During the Infinity War, Thanos invaded Earth and killed the Dynasty's captain, Red Giant Star, which led to the disbandment of the Dynasty team.

The Weather Witch thus joined S.H.I.E.L.D., and her first appearance was in 2012, after the Avengers first assembled to fight the alien invasion.

However, it is now 2008, four years before the Weather Witch was recruited to S.H.I.E.L.D., yet she has already formed the Gods Team. This timeline is ridiculously messed up.

What's even more outrageous is that the member of the Fengshen team, the Raider, is a Skrull!

Moreover, they only arrived on Earth after the Secret Invasion incident occurred after Avengers: Endgame. Good grief, they're showing up now! This is unacceptable!

Lu Yunmeng is basically certain that this is definitely not the Marvel Cinematic Universe with the Marvel Cinematic Universe code Earth-199999, but most likely another parallel world.
