Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

However, her composure as a secret agent quickly calmed her down. She extended her hand and shook hands with Sherlock before speaking to him.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, but my name is Natalie Rashman, not Natasha. As a gentleman, you should remember women's names."

Black Widow seemed not to believe Sherlock's words about being an alchemist in his self-introduction, completely displaying the tolerance of a gentle older sister towards a chuunibyou (delusional) teenager.

When Sherlock heard what Black Widow said, he practically rolled his eyes to the sky. He let go of Black Widow's hand and then said to her.

“Okay, Natasha, I will remember your name, Natasha.”

Damn it, what a nasty brat!

Scarlett Johansson, whose blood pressure was about to rise from Sherlock's words, barely suppressed the urge to beat up the boy in front of her, and her smile changed into the helpless feeling of a gentle older sister.

Just then, Meatball finished treating Tony and spat him back onto the ring. Then, with a grin, he curled Sherlock up on his back with his tail and went back to his lazy self, nestled in the corner.

Sherlock, on the other hand, looked completely at ease and picked up the alchemy book that was on the meat and began to read it.

After a moment of existential doubt while drooling all over the ring, Tony scrambled to his feet and looked with a complex expression at Black Widow, who stood there looking completely bewildered, and then at Sherlock, who lay on top of him looking serene and content. He then said with a hint of helplessness.

"Sherlock, seriously, doesn't Meatball have any more dignified ways of treating people? At the very least, you should make sure that Meatball doesn't just forcibly drag people into its mouth for treatment, right?"

Seeing Tony's obvious vulnerability at losing face in front of a beautiful woman, yet forced to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor because she was present, Sherlock peeked one eye out from behind the book.

Looking at Tony, who was trying hard to maintain his 'gentleman' persona, with a mocking gaze, he chuckled and made a sarcastic remark.

"My dear son, you must know that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to deceive you!"

As soon as Sherlock said those words, only one thought remained in Black Widow's mind: this kid in front of her definitely knew her identity!

However, as Sherlock uttered his next sentence, Black Widow's gaze towards the giant manta ray instantly turned fiery.

"What's more, when Rou Se treats you, he also helps you whiten your skin, remove blemishes, maintain your skin, massage you, and remove scars for free. What more could you ask for? This is just normal. If this were on the battlefield, believe me, you would be begging Rou Se to swallow you whole."

Chapter 140 Giving Sherlock a Shock from a Rabbit

Not to mention that Sherlock's words about whitening, removing blemishes, skincare, massage, and scar removal all seem to perfectly target Black Widow, an agent who uses her beauty as a weapon.

Sherlock's final line, "If you were on the battlefield, you'd be begging to be devoured by a carnivore," was enough to make Black Widow take this giant manta ray, capable of automatically finding and treating the wounded, extremely seriously.

Moreover, Scarlett Johansson may not be without her own thoughts as well.

It's important to know that the thing Scarlett Johansson least wants to talk about is her memories of the Red House, where she forever lost her right to be a mother.

Could this giant manta ray in front of her help her regain the right to be a mother?

Unbeknownst to Black Widow, something called hope had taken root and sprouted in her heart like a seed.

However, it's obvious that given Scarlett Johansson's current status, it's not appropriate for her to reveal anything. She can only temporarily suppress her thoughts about the giant manta ray and try her best to play the role of her assistant, now known as Natalie Rushman.

Of course, Black Widow still reported to Eggman. It would be a lie to say that Eggman wasn't envious of Sherlock's alchemical items, but he also knew Sherlock's aversion to S.H.I.E.L.D., so he could only let Black Widow continue her undercover work.

To Black Widow's surprise, Sherlock, who should have already known her identity, did not reveal it to Tony, although he still called her Natasha all the time.

In this eerie atmosphere, it was finally time to head to Rabbit's place for Tony's scheduled F1 match.

Sherlock and Doro were arguably the two most excited people on the plane. For Doro, this was a journey full of unknowns. Ever since returning from Asgard, Doro had never been averse to a great adventure.

Sherlock, on the other hand, was simply curious. You have to understand that the Marvel universe, to put it bluntly, is almost entirely dominated by American propaganda films, with very little mention of China. To say that Sherlock wasn't curious would be a lie.

Of course, aside from Sherlock and Dorothy, the most excited person on the entire plane was probably Black Widow.

Black Widow had naturally read about Doro, the little pink-haired bun created by Sherlock, from the information available, but this was her first time actually seeing him.

After joining Stark Industries as Pepper Potts' assistant, Black Widow developed an unusual fondness for Doro, as Doro's cuteness genuinely evoked her maternal instincts.

However, at that time, Doro was mostly being held in Pepper's arms.

Now, on the plane, because Pepper needed to discuss things with Tony and the others, Doro finally landed in her arms.

Scarlett Johansson vividly demonstrated what it means to cherish someone so much that you'd be afraid to drop them or melt them in your mouth. Her doting affection was so intense that even Sherlock felt a little uncomfortable watching her.

Even the nearly 24-hour flight couldn't make Black Widow put down Doro; the super agent had completely transformed into a super healer.

Sherlock strongly suspects that Doro is a specialized weapon against Black Widow, capable of instantly shattering her fighting spirit and making her addicted to Doro, just like Odin and Frigga were.

Sherlock found it strange; he hadn't given this little gadget any charm when he created it.

As the plane landed, Sherlock put aside his jumbled thoughts and followed Tony out of the cabin.

Tony's visit to China wasn't just to watch the F1 race; there were many collaborations to be made. Even without any collaborations, Tony's status alone was enough for China to take the group seriously.

Sherlock had expected someone to greet him, but the moment he stepped out of the cabin and saw the person greeting him, his brain shrunk for a second.

The person at the front of the welcoming party had a compassionate expression, wore a white suit, and held a coffee cup with a green straw in it.

If this is considered normal, then the large halo behind this person's head is clearly abnormal!

The two people standing on either side of this person are also hardly normal.

The one on the left is clearly a man, dressed in sharp trousers and leather shoes, paired with a white shirt, exuding a strong, unapproachable aura.

What Sherlock couldn't understand was why this person had such a huge dragon head on his head.

It's a real dragon head! The kind with deer antlers, horse eyes, rabbit ears, and a cow's head! And it's a white dragon!

The woman on the right has short, pure white hair and wears a sharp women's suit, exuding a strong business aura.

The premise is that you have to ignore the fox ears on the top of this lady's head and the nine pure white tails behind her.

No, is that right?

A huge question mark appeared in Sherlock's little head. Had he somehow wandered into the wrong movie set? Weren't these September, Ao Lie, and Da Shi?

However, to Sherlock's surprise, neither Tony, Pepper, nor even Black Widow noticed anything unusual about the three people in front of him. Only Sherlock and Doro, who was being held by Sherlock, stared at each other in disbelief at this surreal scene.

What the hell is this Iron Man and Non-Human Collaboration? Is this even reasonable?

No, that's not the point. The point is that there really is a Heavenly Court!

No, that's not the point. The point is, with these big shots around, what's the point of the Ancient One protecting Earth? Even if Thanos came with the Infinity Gauntlet and the six Infinity Stones, he'd still have to take a huge beating from these big shots, right?

Sherlock didn't understand, Sherlock was puzzled, Sherlock was bewildered.

Looking at the great man before him, Sherlock even felt as if his head had been gouged out and whipped.

This damn Marvel universe is finally racing headlong in a direction I can't even understand.

We haven't even learned how the little man in the flask can replace truth and become omniscient and omnipotent on our side yet, and you're telling me that true gods are everywhere on the other side of the rabbit? What the hell is this? Just wash up and go to sleep.

The Great Master, who was walking in front, seemed to notice Sherlock, who was following behind everyone with a look of existential doubt. He walked up to Sherlock without making a sound, gently patted Sherlock's shoulder, and then quietly said to Sherlock.

"Form is emptiness, emptiness is form; you are attached to appearances."

Hearing the Buddhist words spoken by the Bodhisattva, Sherlock was even more bewildered. He looked at the Bodhisattva standing in front of him with a compassionate expression, somewhat incredulous, and said with some uncertainty.

"Great Master?"

Hearing Sherlock reveal his identity directly, the Grand Master didn't say anything, but smiled even more and gently patted Sherlock's head before continuing to speak to him.

"Those who are lost should remember to do good deeds and not worry about the future; all their thoughts and desires will be answered."

Upon hearing the words of the Great Master, Sherlock's courage grew instantly. He even felt as if he had suddenly seen his maternal family. A sense of grievance welled up in his heart, but on the surface, he still pretended to be strong and forced a smile.

"May I have your autograph, Master? And Master, I really want to taste the coffee in your cup."

Chapter 141 The Rabbit's Quite Complicated Situation (Part 1)

The Great Master paid no heed to Sherlock's somewhat presumptuous words, treating him merely as a mischievous monkey. Like a kind and amiable elder, he gently tapped Sherlock's head with his finger.

Then he turned and left Sherlock's side to continue his work.

Sherlock completely forgot about F1 and other things because of the appearance of Da Shi, Jiu Yue and Ao Lie. He followed Jiu Yue and the others around every day and became quite familiar with them.

They became so familiar with each other that even Tony, who had been busy negotiating with Pepper in the early stages, was somewhat surprised.

Even though Sherlock is a 'foreigner' just like himself, he can eat and drink with the rabbits and even act more like a local than the reception staff.

Over the past few days, Sherlock has roughly figured out what's going on with the rabbits.

Well, the situation on the rabbit's side is quite complicated.

First of all, it's certain that Thanos was lucky not to land on the rabbit's side. Otherwise, if he had actually landed on the rabbit's side, he would probably have faced several major battles.

Because the Heavenly Court truly exists, and those immortals and Buddhas live in seclusion on this land of the rabbit.

The reason why these overpowered beings don't appear in the Marvel universe can actually be attributed to one person: Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng.

That enchanting ancestor transformed his own national destiny and imperial aura into a dragon vein, protecting the rabbit side for generations.

It's like forcibly setting up a barrier similar to a 'small world' on the rabbit's side, ensuring that even if the entire Western population is wiped out, as long as the Earth isn't destroyed, the rabbit side will remain safe and sound.

The most incredible thing is that the range of this barrier can be adjusted in real time according to the rabbit's territory!

The reason why powerful figures like the Great Master never appeared in the West was actually due to the barrier.

On the rabbit side, those celestial beings are called 'immortals', such as Da Shi and Ao Lie. On the other hand, nine-tailed foxes like Jiu Yue are classified as 'spirits' on the rabbit side.

The barrier exerted a strong restraint on 'deities', and the higher the official rank, the greater the restraint.

Beings like the Great Master can't even leave the Rabbit's borders, while 'minor gods' like Ao Lie can go out and see the world. However, even if they go out, their abilities will be suppressed.

On the contrary, 'spirits' like September are completely unaffected by it, and can come and go freely, and even cause trouble overseas.

Of course, there are exceptions. If Earth really faces a crisis that could destroy it, then the barrier will open, allowing powerful figures to step in and save the planet.

In other words, this barrier is a double-edged sword. While it restricts the top combat power of the Rabbit side, it also protects the Rabbit side from external influences.

To put it bluntly, unless Thanos wished for the destruction of Earth when he snapped his fingers, that snap that could wipe out half of all life in the universe wouldn't actually affect the rabbits at all.

Bigwigs like Dashi have lived on this land of rabbits for nearly a thousand years and have become accustomed to their current life without feeling any discomfort. They have even become guides in some official areas.

That's why the Great Master appeared in the reception staff; after all, the Great Master truly has a prestigious status.

On the contrary, Ao Lie and Jiu Yue, well, although they didn't say it explicitly, Sherlock could still tell that their appearance was purely for the sake of him, who had mastered extraordinary powers.

As for Tony, sorry, Tony can only be considered a product of folk science, and according to regulations, he is not under the management of September and Ao Lie.

Of course, Sherlock wasn't against it either, and he really let loose with September and Ao Lie around the rabbit's side.

First, he pestered the Bodhisattva to get her autograph, and then he also managed to get a few drops of the nectar from the Bodhisattva's coffee cup (jade bottle). The price he paid was that Ao Lie transformed into a white dragon horse and could not turn back.

Even so, Sherlock still managed to get seafood out of Ao Lie's mouth! That's pretty outrageous.

Then Sherlock pestered September to take him to see Nezha, the Great Sage, and Yang Jian, the three traitors of the Heavenly Court.
