Marvel Gashapon Maniac

After standing there stunned for a moment, Tony instructed them to go to the largest room.

Although the aliens enjoyed gaming culture, this was their first time visiting a Chinese restaurant, so they were quite curious.

They looked more like a tourist group than a diplomatic corps, judging from their excited demeanor.

"Tony, have you ordered your food?" Steve asked Tony.

As the host, you should treat the guests well.

“Yes, don’t worry about that.” Tony smiled. “You can completely trust the head chef this time.”

Steve noticed the strange expression on Tony's face, but then smiled as if he remembered something.

Then the dishes were served, starting with the first course.

The vegetables were covered, so you couldn't see inside.

"This is the first dish."

The waiter lifted the lid, and golden light burst forth from within.

"Holy crap, what is this?" The alien tour group was startled, seeing a glowing dish for the first time in their lives.

Steve's lips curled into a smile; it really was him.

In the kitchen, Fu You, unusually appearing as a man, was quickly processing ingredients while wearing a red and white chef's uniform.

The chefs around them stared wide-eyed.

How did those eggs fly through the air? How did those vegetables fly into the plate by themselves?

Lu Dan pushed open the door and came in.

The rumors circulating online about aliens acting alongside the Avengers seem friendly, so there's no need to keep reading them.

The president naturally learned of this matter, and Lu Dan came to sound him out.

When Egg pushed open the door, he thought he had gone to the wrong place. A group of aliens were dancing wildly and fighting over the food on the table.

They looked just like a group of people fighting over food.

But then his gaze fell on the dishes on the table that were still glowing.

Oh, Fu You. It's alright then.

After a few polite words, Egghead spoke first: "You all came to Earth not just for sightseeing, right?"

"We're here to negotiate with Earth." The leader composed himself, trying to maintain a professional image after his high.

“We believe Earth can join the Nova Corps, in which case the Nova Corps will provide protection,” the leader said, producing a written agreement.

Although Earth has not yet reached the interstellar age, its level of culture excites many extraterrestrials.

The boiled egg remained silent and did not answer.

He was thinking that this matter was too big.

Having the protection of one of the universe's top powers is certainly a good thing, but...

This is tantamount to making Earth a subordinate entity.

The leader, seeing that the man with the boiled egg was silent, naturally knew the reason and responded with a smile.

"However, this was a decision made previously."

"What?" Egg was taken aback and looked at the leader in confusion.

"We unanimously voted that Earth still has a lot of room for development. Joining the Nova Corps will involve many cosmic rules, so..."

"Therefore, we have decided to reconsider our relationship with the Earth in a cooperative manner."

The leader put away the agreement on the table and took out a new one.

“We’ve decided that Earth still has a lot of room for growth and shouldn’t be constrained too early,” the leader said with a smile.

“Yes, especially games and cooking…pfft.” A council member was interrupted by an elbow strike from the leader before he could finish speaking.

But since the words had already been spoken, Lu Dan naturally heard them.

I couldn't help but twitch the corner of my mouth.

What is this? Food-themed game diplomacy?

After so many years as a secret agent, he felt like he had wasted his time. What's wrong with this world?

……

Thanos has been troubled lately, gazing at the starry sky alone in his main hall.

Lately, everything has been going wrong; Odin and the Ancient One, those two old fogies, really are immortal.

He was still researching how to use the power of the Herrscher Core, but he felt that even with the power of the Herrscher Core, attacking Earth was not a safe thing to do.

But if I don't move, it feels like things are spiraling out of my control.

So to move or not to move, that is the question.

1. Another group got banned today, the book group next door, it's terrifying.

2. With the recent internet cleanup campaign, everyone should be careful.

3. My slacking-off... ahem, my dedicated writing livestream is finished. The room number is 428639, you can also search for Baiyeyuan Chazi. I won't necessarily stream, but I'll be online occasionally.

4. (See attached image) I want to reach 500!

Chapter 78 Help Me Up

"Cooking for an alien tour group, this is the first time I've ever done this," Fu You muttered, looking at the ingredients on the table.

There's been a lot of messy stuff going on lately. I need to breathe... cough cough, teach new VTubers, deal with things related to another world, and play games.

I've been busy with other things and haven't cooked in a while.

This is a good opportunity to relax.

I've already posted my usual spring rolls and panda magic mapo tofu.

Now that he's used the Little Master Sealing Stone, he says he's not tired at all and can still come up with some new tricks.

We need to let the aliens know what "Chinese characteristics" really mean.

We need to prepare a few of the usual dishes, and also make some that are visually stunning.

Fu You was pondering whether to cool down the rebellious spirit and then make a fiery ice sculpture of a mountain.

However, after considering the sword's owner's feelings, I decided against it.

This cultural export was profitable, although we didn't expect the New Star Legion to come so quickly.

With the Nova Corps as a safety net, they have another bargaining chip to fight Thanos.

It's obvious where Thanos got the core from; this incident is definitely related to the dismemberment of the organization.

Those people have been making more and more frequent moves lately.

Fu You still cares about what one of the mysterious council chairmen said.

Fu You took out the sealing stone from his inventory; it was Tony's broken Iron Man sealing stone.

This thing clearly originated from the cut tissue side, because only the tissue side has blank sealing stones.

However, what's strange is that my system can produce complete sealing stones, and the power inside is already sealed.

Tan Lesheng stated that he was unaware of this matter, and that only the three council speakers and the king himself were aware of it.

Although this matter is very troubling, the biggest problem right now is to deal with the family planning office's Thanos.

The support of the Nova Corps is certainly important, so we need to win them over through their food.

......

"The President is waiting for you all at the White House," Egg explained, glancing at the tour group feasting on the table.

This is the first time in my life I've witnessed such a simple and unpretentious diplomatic scene.

"No rush, this banquet is also a token of appreciation from the Earth side. We can't treat them unfairly, so let's finish eating first." The leader calmly finished speaking, then went back to grabbing food from the next table.

Steve was quite helpless about this; this was probably how it always turned out the first time he ate glowing food.

It's a good thing Thor wasn't there, otherwise they probably would have started fighting.

Thor, far away in Asgard, sneezed, his intuition telling him that someone was complaining about his appetite.

However, he needed to maintain his image as a prince in Asgard and not embarrass himself.

Following the Xandar server, the second server was chosen in Asgard at Odin's suggestion.

Although I could connect to the Stark website from Asgard before, the data was sometimes unstable.

The network connection has been lost.

The awkward situation is that probably no gamer can tolerate the frustration of being disconnected right after starting a dungeon and getting gear.

The server was established in a heavily guarded location at Odin's expense, and its jurisdiction was given to Loki.

Thor was brought back this time to help promote the event.

At this time, the people of Xandar in the First War Zone experienced a completely new culture after arriving on Earth: culinary culture.

The saying goes that Earth's cuisine is divided in two, and China owns half of it.

Moreover, it's Chinese cuisine prepared by a top-tier chef.

If before they were just looking at the servers, now it's like they're treating Earth as a treasure trove.

They had an urge to jump up and shout:

"Earth's entertainment universe number one!"

Meeting the president? The president provides meals? Is it really that delicious? Eating is more important.

The leader gradually came to understand a Chinese proverb he had learned: "Food is the first necessity of the people."

"Is this the finest cuisine on Earth? This restaurant truly lives up to its name, 'The Number One Restaurant Under Heaven.' I feel like I'm going to burst... but I'll die without regrets! My life has been completely fulfilling!"

This was the first time the leader had lost control of his emotions in front of everyone, but the others didn't seem to care.

They joined in the shouting.

"The main course is here!" the waiter called from outside, pushing open the door.

An iceberg came into view, and several waiters carried in a huge platter.

Behind the waiters were a group of chefs with expressions of utter disbelief, and head chef Wu Ziming's eyes almost popped out of his glasses.

The iceberg was placed on the table, and the icy wind roused the stunned crowd around it.

"This is... um?" Tony was about to complain that it was shaved ice, but upon closer inspection, he discovered almost transparent slices of meat stuck to the iceberg.

The iceberg was covered with slices of fish meat cut as thin as cicada wings.

"Liebing Fresh Sculpture Mountain, to put it simply, is raw sea bream sashimi," Fu You explained as he walked in.

Putting aside his still-rebellious and icy demeanor, Fu You sat down as well.

Upon seeing a completely new dish, the leader's eyes lit up once again.

He shouted at the time:

"Help me up! I can still eat!"

......

Within the Stark Forum:

"Have you heard? Aliens have visited! Apparently, it's a friendly visit." - Netizen A.

"Huh? Can't I farm it? I even bought smoke grenades." - A Assassin's Creed player.

"The Avengers website has already posted a message saying it's a friendly visit, telling New Yorkers to calm down. If you go, be careful Pecorine might ban your account." - Netizen B.

Netizens discussed the recent friendly visit by aliens, especially those who had heard about it from alien characters in games.
