Chapter 86

The news enterprises in the Marvel world are very efficient. As long as there is something valuable, they can always report it in the first instance.

As expected, the incident in Gemila Town and the military base of the Ten Rings quickly made it to the latest news, causing many people who were paying attention to the situation to cheer and applaud, finding it extremely satisfying.

Especially the golden-armored "angel" who saved Gemila Town, once the news broke, it immediately sparked countless people's amazement, doubt, and speculation.

Regardless of the origin of the golden-armored angel, everyone still highly affirmed its act of righteousness!

As for the embarrassing incident of the two U.S. F22 fighters crashing, everyone just chuckled.

Mechanical failure?

What a lousy excuse?!

Even ghosts wouldn't believe it. Do you take us for fools?

Those are two F22 fighters! Are you kidding me? Did they become spirits and agree to malfunction together? Commit suicide together?!

Countless people sneered at the official explanation, secretly thinking that these high-ups were really regressing, not even bothering to come up with a convincing excuse. How could they have been so blind to choose them as leaders!

Seeing Colonel Rhodes standing there with a gloomy face, reading the official statement, Bai Xiaofei just smiled and didn't care much.

Turning off the holographic device, Bai Xiaofei began to enjoy the beautiful sunset over the sea.

Bai Xiaofei had already returned, storing the holy armor in the dimensional space, and after a comfortable shower, he started his usual routine of "stealing" Tony Stark's wine. When Tony returned and saw Bai Xiaofei stealing his fine wine again, he just glared at Bai Xiaofei and said, "You cheater, you won this time, but next time you'll definitely lose!"

Then, deeply stimulated, Tony dove into the lab and began to rack his brain to figure out how to increase the flight speed of the Mark armor.

Bai Xiaofei suggested, "Tony, if you want to increase the flight speed, I can add speed magic patterns to Mark III, but... the area is quite large. You might consider installing a pair of large wings like me."

Tony immediately rejected Bai Xiaofei without a second thought, "Hmph! I'm a genius! Even without magic patterns, I won't lose to you with the power of technology!"

Well, the proud Tony seems to have really been hurt in his pride this time.

Determined to use technology to defeat Bai Xiaofei.

Tony, now in workaholic mode, wouldn't even listen to Bai Xiaofei, let alone Pepper. So, Bai Xiaofei didn't bother with Tony and just enjoyed his wine, sitting by the pool outside the villa, lying on a lounge chair, enjoying the comfortable sea breeze while watching the news, looking very content.

It has to be said, Tony is quite good at enjoying life. As the top playboy, he has everything: luxury cars, beautiful women, and fine wine; villas, weapons, high technology, and the Iron Man suit; wealth, status, and reputation. Almost everything, Tony has! To live like Tony is truly a life well-lived!

Bai Xiaofei quite likes this high-quality life, although he currently lacks the capital to reach Tony's level, he believes that sooner or later he will achieve it, and even more!

Bai Xiaofei's goal is the entire Marvel world, the endless time and space, and the vast starry sea!

What he needs to do now is to eliminate Obadiah Stane.

This is Bai Xiaofei's last task in "Iron Man 1." After completing it, Bai Xiaofei can leave the Marvel world and return to the real world.

Bai Xiaofei has many plans for plundering, but due to the time constraints, most of them cannot be executed, such as the robots in "Iron Man 2," the Extremis virus in "Iron Man 3," and the Mind Stone in Loki's scepter... Plus, he still needs to film in the real world, so Bai Xiaofei can only stay in the Marvel world for about half a year.

It has been more than two months since Bai Xiaofei arrived in this world, and he has less than four months left before his expected departure. He must gain more benefits during this time, otherwise, the cost of this穿越 would be in vain. According to the benefit ratio, Bai Xiaofei's loss this time is significant, even severe!

Over 1.2 million energy points!

Just like that, they were given to the time travel device, thinking about it makes him feel heartbroken!

But who can blame Bai Xiaofei for being poor? Loans are like this; although they can bring temporary wealth and benefits, they also mean you will lose more!

This painful lesson made Bai Xiaofei realize his shortcomings and lack of consideration.

He believes that the next time he travels, he won't be so impulsive and reckless.

Speaking of the time travel device, Bai Xiaofei once asked it if it could kill Obadiah now, preventing him from researching and wearing the "Iron Monger." This would not only cause a greater change in the plot but also reduce the task difficulty, achieving two goals at once!

Unfortunately, the device's response was very disappointing.

"Host, you're overthinking it!"

"Why?"

Bai Xiaofei was puzzled and asked, "Aren't you supposed to absorb energy? If I kill Obadiah early, it will change the plot, and you should gain a lot of benefits. Why can't I do it?!"

The device was silent for a moment. Just as Bai Xiaofei thought it wouldn't answer, it explained:

"Host, the world's plot has a huge inertia and correction mechanism. It's not as simple as you think. Even if you kill Obadiah now, the Iron Monger will still appear, just with a different person. Because... this is Iron Man's famous battle, the beginning of the Marvel timeline, the foundation of all major events. It cannot be destroyed by others!

The trend cannot be changed! What we can do is only participate and make minor changes, not fundamentally cut off or alter the world's plot. Otherwise, if it causes a huge temporal vibration, I might gain a lot of energy to replenish myself, but I would also be discovered and expelled by the world's will, and the temporal loophole would be sealed. In that case, we would lose this time and space completely!"

"..."

Bai Xiaofei was stunned, completely baffled.

When he came to his senses, he suddenly felt cheated and angrily said, "Damn! According to what you're saying, how can I colonize the world? Isn't everything I've done here in vain?!"

The time travel device said, "Not at all! As long as you don't mess with the key points, the world's will won't notice you. As long as the world's will doesn't interfere, you can still do as you please! And... as energy accumulates and minor plot changes accumulate, my power in this world will grow stronger. When we become strong enough, even the world's will won't be able to do anything to you, and we can even devour the world's will and become the masters of this world!"

Bai Xiaofei understood some of it but still had many questions, so he asked, "Can you explain it more simply?"

The device: "..."

After another moment of silence, the device said, "It's like cheating in DNF. Some maps have a detection level of 'heavenly,' and you'll be detected, disconnected, and banned. Other maps have a detection level of 0, and even a level 0 character can deal maximum damage and still be free and easy.

As long as you avoid the maps with a 'heavenly' detection level and farm other low-detection maps to gain experience, materials, and money, once you reach the top level and have a full set of godly gear, you can dominate all maps and monsters without cheating. Even if TX later finds out your data is wrong, they can't do anything because the rules don't allow them to reopen old cases.

Do you understand now?"

"Understood!"

Bai Xiaofei's eyes lit up, suddenly enlightened, "If you had said it like this earlier, I would have understood right away. It's just about cheating without being detected. I have experience with this, I know!"

The device: "..."

After that, Bai Xiaofei asked more detailed questions about the world's will and key plot points. He learned that only powerful, high-level worlds like Marvel would have a world's will. In lower-level worlds, it's like small games where you can cheat freely without anyone caring!

With this understanding, Bai Xiaofei had a deeper and clearer understanding of his future travels. To prevent the "detection" of the Marvel world's will, Bai Xiaofei made some targeted adjustments and modifications to his plundering plan and began to plan a new colonization strategy.

In short, for the sake of energy points, to colonize Marvel, and to turn this world into his own backyard, Bai Xiaofei was really giving it his all!

...

Bai Xiaofei was in a great mood, but Coulson and Barton, who had just returned from San Francisco, were extremely depressed, their faces dark and terrifying.

After visiting Dr. Pym, Coulson and Barton finally understood why they had failed to find Black Widow despite their best efforts. Because Bai Xiaofei had stolen Dr. Pym's Pym Particles, and... damn it, he even made S.H.I.E.L.D. take the blame, almost being blackened to the point of defecation!

These were not the most important things.

Thinking about Bai Xiaofei's extraordinary strength and his unfathomable superpowers, and now with the Pym Particles that allow him to freely shrink in size, Coulson and Barton felt a headache and a tingling sensation on their scalps.

What to do with this freak?!

...
