The next day, it was dawn.
Lin Feng, who had spent the night tidying up in the Ghost Realm, smelled the fresh morning air, glanced briefly at the King who had fallen asleep while studying overtime in the library, and then disappeared into Kamar-Taj.
It's time to go see Iron Man...
Lin Feng floated above the clouds, and as his gaze shifted, he found his direction. He was immediately thrown out by a phantom dragon claw and shot straight to his destination.
The city, still engulfed in flames, is filled with bloodshed and chaos. The enhanced humans and superhumans hidden beneath the city have obtained what they craved most: power and freedom.
Lin Feng landed on the top of a building and saw the remaining traces of an explosion on the street ahead. He then discovered a group of superpowered individuals fighting throughout the city.
"Why leave this place? It's all about cannibalism. Didn't people eat people before?"
"Don't worry, these zombies are smart. They don't hunt lions; they just want to fill their stomachs."
Do you really want to go back to those days when you were controlled by a single sentence every day?
Two zombies, their mouths slurred with blood, walked down the street. Their red eyes spotted the group of people, and after a greedy glance at the mercenary who had spoken, they turned away with a sinister smile.
“You see, we are predators just like them.”
“In the past, they would hide where we couldn’t see them, quietly tear down your defenses, and crush you cruelly.”
"Now that they are standing before you, why are you afraid of them?"
The footsteps and voices gradually faded away, and this eerie apocalypse seemed to be moving towards a strange balance.
If zombie imposters truly become predators, and even persist in their existence, then humans might just be white pigs about to be sent into a pen.
Once the area below the building was completely silent, Lin Feng shook off his unrealistic fantasies and turned to look at the black steel armor that had flown towards him.
He's here.
On the other side of this building is the Stark Tower, which is less than a kilometer apart.
"Mysterious magician, I've finally waited for you." A voice came from within the black Iron Man suit, then flew and landed on the platform in front of him, slightly higher than Lin Feng: "Who exactly are you? A visitor from the Dark Dimension?"
“It’s not important…” Lin Feng began, “My purpose is to end this flawed future.”
"A mistake? Why is it a mistake?" Iron Man was unusually calm: "Humanity's destruction, meteorite impacts, the end of the world, supernova explosions, the sun going out—is that a mistake?"
"Just because someone died in this tragedy, does that mean death is wrong?"
"If death is wrong, then birth must also be wrong."
"In this upheaval, 2 million children were still born, but they were born at the wrong time."
"You..." Lin Feng's teeth itched, but just as he was about to ask a question, Iron Man turned around and pointed to the sky: "I saw the future, I saw the past, I saw someone open a portal..."
“I saw another future, where Loki, who died a thousand years ago, opened this portal.”
Whoosh...
A blue light shot straight into the sky, and a huge, transparent energy shield enveloped the entire Stark Tower, then opened a massive portal capable of covering the entire city.
"Life is neither right nor wrong."
"If they are unwilling to adapt to this world, then death is the only option."
boom!
A massive X-shaped spaceship descended from the sky, and countless Chitauri soldiers swooped down onto the surrounding buildings, encircling Stark Tower, which was protected by a shield.
"But I am doing the right thing, destroying the Chitauri army and protecting the Earth."
Stark continued speaking, and tens of thousands of black steel armored soldiers flew out from Stark Tower, surrounding the soldiers in reverse.
War was imminent, and Iron Man's cold voice was especially clear amidst the roar of artillery fire. With explosions swirling around Stark Tower, he asked Lin Feng, word by word, "You want to kill me?"
Boom! Flames shot into the sky, reflecting red in Lin Feng's pupils, followed by a shockwave that shattered the glass throughout the city.
Lin Feng did not answer: "What did you see in the future?"
"The same future, turning into zombies, a different kind of zombie that only knows how to eat." Iron Man remained calm: "And then it's over."
Another type of zombie that only knows how to eat represents the normal progression of the original zombie universe. Without participants, it might have subtle differences from other zombie universes, but ultimately it would still be a zombie universe.
At that moment, a laser beam shot out, and a transparent energy shield lit up behind Iron Man. Lin Feng then summoned Hong Ling and attacked the Chiretta soldiers who had appeared around the building.
"What is this? A soul? No, could it be a heroic spirit recorded in Asgard?" Iron Man finally showed some doubt, but his cold tone remained unchanged.
Sensing the other party's strange attitude, a question suddenly arose in Lin Feng's mind: if Iron Man guessed that he was there to kill him, and he still showed up on his own initiative, without even showing hostility, then what exactly did he want to do?
How to persuade him by using the Chitauri invasion?
No.
"What do you want?" Lin Feng asked.
"I don't know. After becoming a zombie, I only want to eat people when I'm hungry," said Zombie Iron Man. "What can you give me?"
Ding! Subtle information appeared before Lin Feng's eyes; the Nightmare Space offered a trade option.
Lin Feng's mind raced, and he temporarily ignored the information, saying, "I have three missions: destroy the zombie planet, destroy the zombie virus, and end the zombie timeline."
Task?
Iron Man paid special attention to the word: "Destruction... Nobody likes the word destruction, even though I stand calmly at the window every night without thinking about it."
It was philosophical, but Lin Feng didn't care: "We have nine days left. If the mission fails in nine days, you and I will both die along with this timeline."
"Nine Heavens?" Iron Man struggled to think. "Even if I leave here, I'll still die?"
"This is the mission." Lin Feng pointed to the sky, even though the other party could not see any countdown.
"Even the Time Stone can't stop him?" Iron Man's voice finally began to change.
Lin Feng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, with a sense of ease: "Yes, time is merely a toy in their hands."
"Um?"
“You’re the main character,” Lin Feng smiled. “I think you should have a better way… to help me complete the mission.”
Of course, this doesn't mean he can really sit idle. Destroying Iron Man or destroying this zombie timeline are his last resorts, and they would require the Time Stone, which is hidden somewhere in the enemy's possession.
"I want to know, who is he?"
"If you could see a giant blue figure in the sky," Lin Feng replied, "the Earth would be nothing more than a sesame seed in his eyes."
Sesame... Earth... Blue figure. Iron Man looked up, whether he was actually looking or using some instruments to read the light and radiation in the sky, it was unclear. He waited until the figure looked down before speaking again: "You have residual energy radiation from the Infinity Stones on you, not the Time Stone, nor the Space Stone."
"Um."
Do you know where the other gems are?
"The Reality Stone is sealed away, the Soul Stone can only be found by sacrificing your most beloved, and the Mind Stone... should be up there." Lin Feng pointed to the spaceship in the sky: "Of course, it could also be in the hands of another cosmic overlord."
"Neither you nor I are qualified to have reality or the soul."
"Love?" Iron Man felt a strange emptiness in his heart for a moment. After becoming a zombie and eating Pepper Potts, he no longer knew what love was.
