Marvel Gashapon Maniac

"There's this kind of magic? It seems magic is much more complex than I thought." Tony shrugged and downed his drink in one gulp.

Just as Tony put down the glass, the drink inside was refilled, still ice-cold.

"There are many kinds of magic, and naturally there are magics that make life easier," the Ancient One said slowly.

"However, magic is also a path of innovation, and you are the first person in the magic world to use technology to create objects and use magic."

"Ha, you should say I'm the richest person among those who use magic, so I can play like this," Tony said dismissively.

The Ancient One initially wanted to say that she wasn't without savings, but after carefully considering Stark Industries' financial resources, she decided against it.

"Innovation is great, so have you ever thought about learning magic from me?"

“No,” Tony replied instantly.

“There’s no need to refuse so soon.” As if she had anticipated this situation, the Ancient One immediately continued, “The magic we use is essentially borrowing power from other planes.”

"Your ability to control the battlefield is excellent, but you lack in other areas. My magic can help you make up for this deficiency."

Tony was somewhat tempted and did not refuse.

"Sure, but what's the price?"

The Ancient One took off her sunglasses and looked at Tony earnestly.

"I need you to become the Supreme Master and protect the sacred temple in Hong Kong, China. Of course, it's just a title; you don't need to actually be stationed there."

Tony nodded, which was an acceptance of the conditions for this level of treatment.

“Alright, give me the Time Stone.” Tony reached out his hand.

“Fu You said that’s the mark of the Sorcerer Supreme, give it to me.”

The Ancient One smiled mysteriously: "No, this needs to be given to another Sorcerer Supreme."

"Another one? There can be two Sorcerers Supreme?"

Gu Yi held up three fingers: "To be precise, it's three people."

“It didn’t work before, but as people get older, they want to try something different.”

"Furthermore," the Ancient One changed the subject, "don't you trust the artifact you're about to forge more than the Time Stone?"

“Ah, that’s true.” Tony smiled as well.

"I will create the strongest equipment that surpasses your so-called divine artifacts."

This is Tony's confidence.

"Alright. Then go ahead, Sorcerer Supreme Tony Stark."

Ancient One waved goodbye to Tony and let out a soft breath.

"I used the Time Stone to read the conversation, and that finally made him give up on the Time Stone."

Then Gu Yi shook her head.

"What a pity. If I could just fool him like that, I wouldn't be Tony Stark. I hope the King can leave me some books."

In the courtyard next door, Tony pushed open the library door and said to the bewildered librarian, Wang:

"Give me a whole bookshelf of magic books first!"

1. Due to the pandemic and company layoffs, there's a chance I'll have to go free in August. That might mean I'll have to become a full-time author, and I might soon be unemployed, which is really awkward.

2. Wow, when you get old, any game becomes entertaining, even while eating. I'm already full. I need to see what fun games are out lately.

3. (Continued from picture) I want to eat cheese waterfall fried chicken.

Chapter 20 Idol Project

Tony returned to New York to study technology and magic, and as long as there was no external invasion, Fu You returned to his lazy state.

Fortunately, there's a game-selling event available. Devil May Cry 3 has a pretty good reputation at St. Freya Academy, and most people who haven't bought it before come here to get a copy.

Fu You simply took out the giant kitchen knife, Rebellion, and displayed it as the store's prized possession.

but……

"What's wrong, angel? Why do you look so gloomy lately?" Thor asked, looking at Fu You who was sitting there sighing.

Fu You really wanted to answer, "I'm considering breeding you."

Unfortunately, saying that would be too disrespectful to the alien prince.

So she could only say tactfully, "I'm considering pairing you up."

"???" Thor was full of questions.

Lately, I haven't had much to do, so I'm just selling games at St. Freya Academy to make a living.

Because the target audience for this sale was only the Valkyries of St. Freya Academy, the profit wasn't much.

However, Stark Games' games are designed for all ages, so they won't have to worry about sales when they're released overseas.

Stan Lee, the famous old man from New York, did parkour by scaling a wall the night after playing Assassin's Creed...

Then I stayed in the hospital for a month.

Therefore, Stark Industries advises: "Non-immortals should pay attention to age when purchasing games."

In the past few days, Loki has calmed down a lot and returned to her old daily routine of watching TV and eating potato chips.

I really don't know why she hasn't turned into a little fat pig yet; maybe the Queen has some useful magic.

In the Marvel universe, Tan Lesheng informed us that the quantum algorithm was complete and could be used for official time travel after testing.

Fu You also informed Bronya, since he had promised to take her to find her best friend.

Kiana and Mei naturally requested to come along as well.

However, Theresa refused.

"The quantum realm is an unknown area that no one has explored. Even Destiny has not yet mastered a method to freely enter the quantum realm."

"Bronya has a compelling reason to go, but what if something happens to you?"

Theresa sighed, "Kiana, how am I going to explain this to Siegfried if something happens to you?"

Seeing Theresa's worried expression, Kiana smiled.

“Auntie, the three of us have been fighting together ever since we started in Changkong City. How could we possibly abandon Bronya, that little dwarf, just because of danger?”

"Hmph." Bronya glanced at Kiana expressionlessly: "If it's Kiana, she'll only make things worse. I'd rather bring Mei along."

Upon hearing this, Kiana was so angry that she crossed her head and poked Bronya's face with her head.

"Don't be so arrogant, little one!"

"There's no arrogance involved."

Seeing the three of them frolicking around, Theresa sighed. It seemed she couldn't persuade them otherwise.

She then looked at Fu You and said, "Could you please protect them, Miss Fu You?"

Fu You smiled and said, "Since we're leading a raid group, protecting the members is the group leader's responsibility."

"Actually, their potential is far greater than you imagine. Perhaps this trip to the quantum realm will allow them to reach a whole new level."

After all, they are the three main families of Honkai, and all of them are Herrschers.

Each of them is a major spender, leaving captains with a bittersweet experience.

……

However, compared to the peaceful St. Freya Academy, things are much worse for Anti-Entropy.

"Huh? You're saying someone enhanced the performance of the basic Titan?" At the laboratory site, the girl with red twin tails looked at the personnel in shock.

"During the time when Mr. Tesla was away, a very talented genius was recruited, and within a day, he won over almost everyone in the laboratory."

The red-haired girl, known as Tesla, looked at the researcher, who was filled with adoration, with a strange feeling, finding it somewhat absurd.

While there are enhanced versions of the Titan mech, as a basic mech primarily focused on quantity, its performance has been tuned to near perfection.

This is a relatively good level that can be achieved with the current experimental funding. Further improvement is not something that just anyone can do.

"Seems like he's quite a genius? Although I could do the same thing." Tesla had a rough idea of ​​his skill level.

"So where is he?" Tesla asked.

"He took leave."

"Ask for leave?"

The researcher explained, "He said his daughter was having some trouble, so he was going to the Himalayas to practice asceticism."

"???"

Is there any necessary connection between these things? And what the hell is cultivation? Are there really cultivators like those in novels?

After all, Tesla was known for his "chuunibyou" (middle school syndrome) with the famous "I've read books to the point of having a doctorate and still believe in alchemy" mentality. He was somewhat skeptical of such fictional plots.

"Why doesn't anyone refuse such an outrageous reason?" Tesla questioned.

The researcher quickly waved his hand: "I don't know about this nest. Don't ask me. It was approved by Lady Cocolia."

Upon hearing this, Tesla went to Cocolia's office in a huff to find her.

Without even knocking, Tesla pushed open the door to Cocolia's office and slammed his hand on the table.

"Why did you hire this random person? And why did you let him go after he found out about the Titan blueprints?"

Cocolia ignored Tesla's questioning tone and said calmly, "Because of the deal."

“How could I not care about someone with such an ambiguous identity who has multiple degrees, especially since they just recently obtained them?”

"But he understood the structure of the Titan mech in just one day, and came to my office to propose the quantum shield and quantum teleportation solutions."

What Cocolia didn't mention was that Tony also contributed a large sum of money to support Anti-Entropy.

While it wasn't an outrageously large sum of money, it was certainly a welcome relief for Anti-Entropy, which was facing a fiscal deficit after losing a large number of Titans.

However, what Cocolia didn't know was that the man in front of her was one of the culprits behind Anti-Entropy's fiscal deficit.

However, this amount of money was not enough to recover the deficit from the deficit, so Cocolia took a stack of documents out of the drawer and threw them at Tesla.

"What is this? The Anti-Entropy Idol Project? An idol project!?"

Tesla took the document, then his eyes widened.

I looked at the main headings of the document again, and then at myself in the list of candidates.

Cocolia just smiled faintly and held up three fingers: "I'm not some kind of devil. I just need to perform three shows a month."

Looking at Cocolia's smile, Tesla suddenly felt that he shouldn't have come here today.

1. I had a stiff neck and an upset stomach yesterday, so I couldn't keep up with writing. I've really missed several days, sob sob. I'll still update one chapter tonight, otherwise I'll feel bad for my readers.

2. I've received your concern. Actually, I'm not planning to become a full-time author right away. I want to take a break, write for a while, and then look for a job. And about supporting my family... I don't even have a boyfriend yet, please don't hurt me, I'm already crying 555.

3. (See attached image) Isn't this the ironclad prophet? Isn't this a knife?

No, this...

No, let me explain.

I was just having a headache from lack of sleep yesterday and decided to take a nap. I went to bed at 7 pm, thinking I'd only sleep for a few hours, but I just opened my eyes. I slept from 7 pm last night until 7 am this morning, holy crap...

That's too unbelievable! Can someone really sleep for 12 hours straight without waking up?

Apologize.
