Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

The reason is simple: Sherlock lacks basic knowledge about this core and cannot even imagine how it was made!

Because when Sherlock tried to analyze the core, what Sherlock saw was a huge sun at its peak, which should have been floating in the universe!

Compared to the sun, Sherlock is nothing but a speck of dust!

Sherlock simply couldn't comprehend how Asgard had captured a sun, compressed it to the size of a fist, and then used the principle of space folding or some other method to fit it into the Destroyer armor.

Of course, although Sherlock cannot analyze it, it does not mean that Sherlock cannot use it. After all, this core is like the Arc Reactor on Tony's armor, and it should not be bound to the Destroyer armor.

Sherlock spent nearly half a month analyzing the Destroyer Armor, and that didn't even include the core analysis.

During this time, Sherlock handed over all the logistical work to Doro, who then chose to use the Anywhere Door to go to Los Angeles, once again outsourcing the logistical tasks to Tony.

A minor incident occurred during this time.

Tony somehow learned about the alien war in New Mexico.

Unlike the S.H.I.E.L.D. team, Tony's first reaction upon seeing the so-called Kizaru and the miniature Thor was that the two were definitely Sherlock and Doro.

Especially after Doro returned and, under Tony's coercion and enticement, demonstrated his miniature Mjolnir, Tony was completely overwhelmed.

What's so fun about that awful alien thing? Come on, Grandpa Tony's got you something much more fun!

Doro then acquired a complete Iron Man suit before Sherlock, including after-sales service and subsequent upgrades, and even the color was exactly the same as Tony's suit.

Sherlock, who was hiding underground analyzing the armor, almost dropped his eye when he saw Doro return, wearing Iron Man armor and looking excited.

During a break from eating, Sherlock helped Doro modify the Iron Man armor Tony had made for her, turning it into a round ball the size of an apple, so that Doro could wear it anytime.

Looking at Doro Sherlock with his small hammer in his right hand and Iron Man armor in his left after finishing his meal, a sense of speechlessness always lingered in my mind.

Can the future Doro be someone who combines the abilities of all the Avengers members?

That shouldn't be possible, right?

Imagine Dororo wearing Iron Man armor, carrying a bow and arrow, with a Mjolnir in his left hand and an electric shock bracelet in his right, wearing Hulk's purple underwear underneath, and Spider-Man's legs near his butt?

The scene was too beautiful for Sherlock to imagine.

Of course, Tony didn't get his suit of armor for free. He used the Anywhere Door to get there and haggled with Sherlock for a while, eventually managing to get about a finger's worth of Uru metal from Sherlock before leaving satisfied.

Meanwhile, after spending half a month analyzing the Destroyer Armor, Sherlock began modifying it.

The first step, naturally, is to consider the appearance.

Sherlock referenced the design of the nanotech bio-armor from Crysis, and with the powerful magical abilities of the Uru alloy from the Destroyer Armor, he managed to retain its defensive characteristics while adding features that enhance the body.

With Uru alloy as its base and the aid of alchemical manipulation, Sherlock, wearing this armor that's like having superhuman strength, can even unleash power comparable to Spider-Man.

Most importantly, Uru alloy and alchemy are such a perfect match that Sherlock even modified part of his mechanical arm to store the equipment inside.

When needed, this suit of armor can be deployed from the mechanical arm to the entire body in the blink of an eye.

In order to retain the armor's ability to amplify energy and fire destructive beams, Sherlock even went to Tony Stark and borrowed an Arc Reactor to install on his mechanical arm.

Not only can it enhance the use of alchemy by its mechanical arm in normal times, it can also power its own armor, making it a perfect combination.

The only problem is that it's so bright at night that it's a bit dazzling when you're trying to sleep, so Sherlock had to take inspiration from how Wakanda made the mechanical arm for the Winter Soldier and modify his own mechanical arm to be detachable.

As for the remaining core, which was originally intended for the Destroyer armor, Sherlock, after much deliberation, forcibly embedded it under the tip of his spear while modifying his Spear of Longinus with Uru alloy.

The Spear of Longinus, which originally looked like a weapon, now has a rotating sun at its base, making it look more like a staff.

Of course, the Spear of Longinus now also has the ability to fire destructive rays. In fact, due to its spear shape, it can even fire fan-shaped, spherical, or irregularly shaped destructive rays under Sherlock's alchemical adjustments.

Today's Sherlock can be considered a low-budget version of Odin.

When Sherlock sees Thor again, he vows he will definitely cosplay as Odin in front of Thor and see what Thor's expression will be.

Sherlock didn't forget Doro's Mjolnir either, but because the Mjolnir contains raw materials like planetary cores, the Mjolnir made of Uru alloy is only slightly harder.

As for the rest, after Sherlock gave Tony a finger as agreed, most of the rest were stored in Sherlock's four-dimensional pocket.

After all, with the Destroyer being nearly three meters tall and Sherlock only one and a half meters tall, logically speaking, the materials that came with the Destroyer armor should be more than enough.

Chapter 74 Daily Life at Home

Sherlock spent nearly half a month analyzing the Destroyer Armor, and then spent almost another week modifying it for himself, along with the Spear of Longinus and Doro's miniature Mjolnir.

Having wasted nearly a month, Sherlock had to abandon his original road trip plans and, after saying goodbye to Tony, used the Anywhere Door to return to his home in New York.

Helen and Zhao Weike were exceptionally welcoming of Sherlock's return. On the very night Sherlock returned home, Helen prepared a lavish feast to celebrate his return.

At the dinner table, Doro showed off his new toy. Helen's eyes lit up when she saw Doro wearing a mini Iron Man suit and Doro transformed into a mini Thor.

Well, Doro's ability to switch between transformations at will even gave Helen the feeling that she had bought the all-powerful Anya. After all, in the figure collecting world, if you're talking about who's the best cosplayer, there's probably no one else besides Anya.

Anyway, Helen grew to like Doro more and more, and would often run to her friends with Doro in his armor to show him off.

After all, at this time, Tony's Iron Man is a well-known superhero throughout the United States, frequently active in the Middle East and in the United States to save lives. In addition, Tony is a real person, and his reputation as a former celebrity in tabloid news has made Tony's Iron Man almost universally known.

That's why, whenever Doro's mini Iron Man suit, made by Tony, is revealed, combined with Doro's adorable appearance, it almost immediately attracts a lot of envious glances.

Helen became an absolute celebrity among her friends thanks to Doro.

As for Sherlock and Zhao Weike, these two grown men didn't seem to have any other thoughts about it. Zhao Weike continued to be a stay-at-home husband, and Helen was still picked up and dropped off by car.

Sherlock returned to the state he was in when he first traveled through time, sleeping in until he naturally woke up every day, then studying alchemy, and occasionally taking Doro and Helen's family out shopping and sightseeing.

The only change that could be described as was when Helen and Zhao Weike saw Sherlock's three-bedroom, two-living-room 6x6 Raptor and were so envious they were practically drooling.

In the end, after Helen pleaded for a long time, Sherlock finally agreed to help Helen build one as well.

Of course, the car to be modified couldn't be the Mustang that Helen had given Zhao Weike. For this reason, Zhao Weike had to bring back a spacious Cadillac Escalade for Helen, which was both exciting and painful.

To everyone's delight, after Sherlock's modifications, the Emperor Bathhouse also gained the space of a three-bedroom apartment without compromising its performance, bringing about an unexpected change to Zhao Weike and Helen's lives.

The two began to look forward to the road trip.

The painful thing is that Zhao Weike's wallet has been reduced again. After all, Zhao Weike needs to spend his own money to buy both the vehicle and the furniture inside. He can't keep taking advantage of Sherlock, can he?

Although Sherlock could indeed conveniently use alchemy to help Zhao Weike solve the furniture problem.

Of course, the main reason was that Zhao Weike was too embarrassed to ask Sherlock to make a set of furniture for him, because Helen had a strong desire for a fireplace in the three-bedroom apartment in the car.

Sherlock nearly pulled his hair out to make it all fall out, barely managing to solve numerous problems related to flame erosion, fire prevention, smoke extraction, ventilation, and even carbon monoxide poisoning while ensuring the vehicle's shape was maintained.

Zhao Weike was really too embarrassed to ask Sherlock to make him another set of furniture.

Fortunately, the outcome was good, everything was perfect, Helen's bathing emperor was perfect, the only thing that suffered a blow was Zhao Weike's retirement money.

After Sherlock completed his transformation, and just as Sherlock and Zhao Weike had agreed to take a short trip together, the Ancient One visited Sherlock and made him personally experience what it meant to be the supreme sorcerer (god).

Watching the Ancient One emerge from the sparking portal, Sherlock even felt a bit of PTSD, since the last time the Ancient One came, he had been tricked into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s sights.

After that came the troubles of rescuing Tony, fighting enemies, analyzing the Mjolnir, and stealing the armor. Although he gained a lot, he was also extremely exhausted.

So when the Ancient One reappeared in his house, Sherlock's first reaction was to be on guard.

"Boss! What are you up to now?"

The Ancient One had just emerged from the portal when Sherlock scooped up Doro and held him in his arms, looking warily at the smiling Ancient One.

Seeing Sherlock's wary expression, the Ancient One didn't react much, but simply shrugged helplessly at Sherlock before speaking.

"Don't worry, this time it's a good thing. You probably know what Loki and Thor did on Earth. I'm going to Asgard to talk to Odin about what they did on Earth."

Ancient One spoke in an unusually calm tone, but to Sherlock, her words automatically transformed into the statement, "I'm going to get revenge!"

Hearing the Ancient One's words, Sherlock admired her fortitude, but also felt inexplicably guilty. He looked away and asked the Ancient One a question.

"so what?"

“I plan to take you, the only alchemist on Earth, with me! Most of Asgard’s magical civilization consists of alchemical creations, and even Asgard itself is a giant alchemical creation. Aren’t you tempted?”

The Ancient One's words were like the whispers of a demon, constantly stirring Sherlock's heartstrings. It would be a lie to say he wasn't tempted, but as for whether Sherlock dared to go, the answer was definitely no!

You stole someone's things, and now you're not only taking me, the thief, to settle scores, but you also want compensation?

I'm not some big shot like the Ancient One, just a lowly alchemist! What's the difference between this and me slapping you and expecting you to thank me?

Hearing the Ancient One's words, Sherlock's guilty conscience grew even more pronounced. After hesitating for a long time, Sherlock finally spoke to the Ancient One somewhat stiffly.

"Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, I still prefer to live my own simple life. Asgard and all that are just fleeting clouds, fleeting clouds!"

Hearing Sherlock's words, which sounded like self-comfort or making excuses for himself, the Ancient One's smile became even more amused. Seeing Sherlock's guilty expression, she opened her mouth and asked.

"What? Is it because of the Destroyer Armor that you're afraid to go?"

!!!

Upon hearing the Ancient One's words, Sherlock's eyes widened in surprise as he stared at the Ancient One standing before him with a half-smile. His face flushed red as he struggled to speak for a long time before finally managing to utter a single sentence.

You found out?

Faced with Sherlock's question, the Ancient One's smile was calm yet playful as she spoke to Sherlock.

"Of course I know, but it was Admiral Kizaru who stole the armor. What does that have to do with you, Sherlock? I, the ancient marshal, am not dead yet, so what are you worried about?"

Upon hearing the Ancient One's words, Sherlock's guilty conscience deepened, and he even looked somewhat embarrassed.

Question: What should I do if the person who was behind my back not only found out, but was also called out on me to my face?

Seeing Sherlock's awkward posture, not knowing what to do with his hands and feet, Gu Yi rolled her eyes at him and said in an annoyed tone.

"Don't make up such outrageous stories next time. Just wait at home. I'll come find you when it's almost time and take you to Asgard."

After she finished speaking, Sherlock didn't see the portal open, but the Ancient One's figure simply disappeared before Sherlock's eyes.

Chapter 75 On how to make Sherlock and Zhao Weike both enraged at the same time

Watching the Ancient One disappear before his eyes, Sherlock instantly became interested in the spellbooks in the Kamar-Taj Library.

The reason is simple: Sherlock has never seen such magic before!

Having been tricked by the Ancient One once, Sherlock was afraid that this would be another temptation from her, so he didn't dare to actually use the Anywhere Door to wander around the library in Kamar-Taj.

As for the Ancient One's mention of going to Asgard, Sherlock thought about it and then didn't pay much attention to it.

The reason is simple: firstly, the Ancient One did not mention a timeframe, which means that she would definitely not go to Asgard to demand justice anytime soon. For Sherlock, the longer he could delay, the better.

It's like how escaping, though shameful, is actually quite effective.

On the other hand, it's also because what the Ancient One said was right. It was Admiral Kizaru who stole the armor. What does that have to do with me, Sherlock?
