[Comprehensive Anglo-American] Gem Merchant

New York, Avengers Tower.

Natasha put a mask on her face: "So, this is why you picked a green eye for a long time?"

You know, Sol now looks like a Persian cat with one blue eye and one green eye: "I thought you'd pick blue anyway."

"Colors can be concealed with any illusion, ma'am."

Loki replied with a smirk: "If only my stupid brother can learn such illusions in time."

Wouldn't that be the end of it, everyone thought, and the 500 years of royal education hadn't taught Sol any worthy skills.

The person involved didn’t think there was any problem with this. Sol took a look at the cosmetic mirror provided by Natasha, and was very satisfied with the vision of the new eyes——Tony Stark felt confidently that as long as the eyes could be lifted Even if his younger brother brought him back a camera that could connect to the optic nerve, he would probably smack his face happily.

Come to think of it, the God of Thunder would not care about the magical effects of the magic eye.

Loki put on a haughty look: "This eye will activate the function of a magic eye when needed, and it will be connected with my vision - I think the great future god king should not be able to lose another eye on the battlefield. One eye, if even a weapon like Mjolnir can't make you come back from the battlefield intact, then maybe the name of the God of Thunder is nothing more than that, this weapon and the throne belong to me to inherit, because the first heir is too stupid."

"I guess the biggest problem with this guy is that he didn't learn to speak well."

Clint whispered to Bruce: "If I have children in the future, I must pay attention to family education in this area."

"What are you talking about? Ants in the courtyard."

The god of trickery raised his voice, and Agent Clinton Barton threw up his hands in surrender: "No, no, never mind."

"My pleasure, Loki."

The God of Thunder with heterochromatic pupils has been very familiar with his brother's poisonous tongue skills since he was a child, and he has already had his own set of auditory filters: "I am very glad that you are still willing to continue to fight side by side with me. I thought you were going to continue traveling in the universe...for a long time."

Truth be told, the solutions to the problems that the linear-thinking Son of Odin encountered were remarkably simple.First of all, confirm whether this matter is a prank by Loki, if it is, he will go to Loki to make amends or apologize according to the situation, if not, his smart brother will always have a way to resolve all problems.

Therefore, when he was directly thrown to the earth by Odin, he rarely felt a little confused-of course, this may also be because the God King, who felt that the two children were a bit off-track, felt that it was time for his eldest son to be himself. Use your brain.

One or two are not worrying, tsk.

Solving the most important eye problem, Sol took advantage of the opportunity to invite Loki to return to Asgard like this: "Mother has always missed you, and everyone is very worried... Well, part of Vostag and the others are also worried about it. I am afraid that those unlucky countries in the universe will be messed up by you."

When he said this, he couldn't help laughing even himself, and after being glared at by Loki, he quickly added: "But I really hope you can go home."

"..."

It seems that frankly expressing one's thoughts is never Odinson's specialty. Speaking of this, Thor and Loki both feel a little uncomfortable.The latter's reaction was obviously stronger, and Loki turned around the living room of the Avengers Building twice violently: "If you are still as stupid and dull as before, Mjolnir will eventually be my weapon— —I went to find a dwarf craftsman to build that thing!"

"Of course, I will never forget that was the souvenir you brought back from your first visit to Nidawi."

Thor replied: "But the warhammer is not a weapon suitable for your combat habits. If it is really necessary, you can activate Gungnir when I take charge of Asgard."

The expression of the little prince was first disdainful, then astonished, and finally turned his face away.

Gungnir, the Eternal Spear, the strongest weapon used by Odin to repel the flame giant Surtur, the symbol of Asgard's royal power.According to the legend of the Atrium, as long as you swear on the tip of the spear of eternity, the oath will definitely come true.Although Gungnir does not have the function of a wishing machine in the real Asgard culture, swearing an oath to the tip of the Eternal Spear is indeed a key process in a series of important occasions such as soldiers going out to battle and kings enthroning. one.

"..."

In the end, Loki said of the rash promise: "You'll regret it, Thor."

The son of Odin with different color pupils solemnly promised: "I will never regret this."

Hearing this, Tony Stark, who was not interested in the boring eight o'clock drama of the royal family dispute, left early. He still had a mountain of work to complete by himself, and the schedule in the laboratory had been scheduled for several months.In addition, the new troubles thrown at Pepper also need to be resolved by himself——

"Tony? What's with this contract?"

Pepper slammed a piece of parchment in front of Tony Stark that did not comply with the formal contract rules: "I was at work this morning and found an owl squatting outside my window and gave me this! My first At first I thought it was Hogwarts who invited me to be the headmaster's assistant!"

Tony: "..."

Oh, he remembered, many of these magicians can't even send text messages on mobile phones, and El-Melloi II specially reminded him.

"Well, when Al and I went to the auction, we got a deal by the way... Hey, the price is quite fair!"

He took the parchment and looked at the quotation list at the bottom. The long list of zeros on it made him very satisfied: "I think this is very good, just sign it! What they want to buy is my new trial The main idea of ​​the magic power conversion device is to use the ark reactor to continuously generate magic power."

? !

Pepper felt dizzy, as if she had really fallen into some fairy tale.Well... She should have thought that such a day would come when Stark first became interested in occultism. She rubbed her brows to force herself: "Does Alphonse know about this?"

It's a matter of mystery, and it's a good idea to ask the experts first.

"Of course, most magicians are extreme guys who like to fight at the slightest disagreement. Al witnessed the birth of this deal. If he hadn't been there, I think the other party's attitude would have been even worse. —what a short-sighted and disrespectful bunch.”

Pepper: "..."

She could probably imagine how explosive the scene was at that time, and her boss's unforgiving mouth was troublesome everywhere.

The question of the other party’s sincerity can now be confirmed to be no problem, so the next question is...

"How should I sign this contract? What form should the other party use to pay, gold of the same value? So how does Stark Industries file taxes... Also, according to the company's regulations—even if you may not know this regulation at all—this A project of this amount must go through the formal bidding documents and signing process, how should the marketing department’s bidding document be written? Do you just let them write the “magic power generator”? Then most people will probably think we are crazy.”

Pepper scratched his hair a little irritably. The parchment contract sent by the owl has no legal effect at all. I don’t know what method most magicians use to sign contracts. Could it be true? Let her learn an unbreakable curse temporarily... The capable female secretary thought so, and reported a lot of questions.

And these questions, to be honest, Tony Stark didn't think about any of them.

He smiled and wanted to slip away from Pepper: "Good girl, I still have a lot of other work to do here. I believe you must have a way to deal with these problems. If you don't know what to do, go to SHIELD for help. I think That guy Fury can definitely come up with a reasonable solution!"

As soon as the words fell, the golden-red steel suit jumped out of the window and flew towards the direction of the laboratory.

"... Stark!"

Left behind in the Stark Industries building, followed by a whole mess of an aggrieved Miss Potts.

On the other hand, in the laboratory, Tony Stark still needs to receive a more special guest.

It wasn't a total prevarication for Pepper's remarks, because he was literally busy with his feet on the ground.

In the laboratory, the silver-white long-haired man looked around curiously, and Stephen Strange put his arms around Tony Stark and said coldly the first time he saw Tony Stark: "I brought you there for you, You can take care of the rest by yourself."

With warm brown pupils staring at the golden eyes in front of him, Tony Stark showed a commercial enough smile: "I have long admired your name, Monarch Maris Billy, Mr. Animsfia."

In fact, he had imagined the appearance of this person countless times in his mind.Alphonse's collaborator, the monarch of the clock tower's astronomy department, is rounded up to be a college head in "Harry Potter"... Such a person will never miss his invention, or this is simply to vote for it It is an irresistible stepping stone created to break into the world of magicians.

"Meet you for the first time, Mr. Anthony Stark, I have just seen your magic power generating device, and I have to say, this is really a very delicate invention."

The silver-haired man said in a very happy and sincere tone: "Although I don't know why you are suddenly willing to sell this magic dress to me at a low price, but I am very happy to get your help—"

As a result, the other party changed the subject: "But it may be a pity that I can't let you know all the mysteries of the astronomical science, and I can't let you know the bottom line like an equivalent business cooperation. The mysterious world has its own rules of operation. There is an agreement with the Atlas Academy, and they can only use their technology, but they cannot reverse the deduction."

He can generally think of the idea of ​​a genius in the mundane world like Stark - to pay a sum of money, provide some technology, and then join the research and workshop construction of magicians, so as to obtain more and more complete Knowledge, presumably with his talent, in time, even without magic power, he can reach a level that is difficult for ordinary alchemists to achieve.

However, the other party shook his head.

"That's okay, and I'm not completely ignorant of the Atlas Institute."

Tony Stark denied the other party's statement: "I only help you because Alphonse has no interest in what you study or the root you want to reach."

"--Eh?"

Such an answer is too surprising, even Maris Billy Animsfia, who has dealt with many magicians, couldn't help being a little surprised: "You mean Alphonse?"

"Even if that guy himself doesn't cherish his own life..."

I also hope that he can live an ordinary and happy life more like an ordinary human being.

With only a hundred years of life, Tony Stark claims to be a very down-to-earth hero. Although magicians talk about reaching the root, prolonging life, parallel worlds and immortality, it sounds worth studying and looking forward to, but in essence, he is a Prefer to focus on the present person.

The flames of war in this world need to be extinguished urgently, and a large number of human beings are still being tortured and killed. There are all kinds of potential threats in the universe, and he has not yet figured out the principle of the Asgard Rainbow Bridge, and the upcoming The Extremis virus officially introduced to the world.

Although this world has such and such bad enough places in his eyes, it still doesn't make him leave the whole world behind and focus on spying on the illusory future.

Of course—as a genius scientist, it's not that he didn't think about solving the problem of the end of the world once and for all, although everyone said that the Atlas Academy, the Ancient One, and countless magicians of the previous generation were all dedicated to this feather. Return, but geniuses are always different, the failures of countless people in the front may just increase the failure experience that needs to be vigilant, and himself... Tony Stark has absolute confidence in himself.

However, since he knew in advance that rash actions would lead to worse results, he would no longer be as unscrupulous as before.

"If the two big problems of electricity magic power conversion and magic power supply are solved, my cost estimate will be greatly reduced. Mr. Stark, I have to say that you participated in the creation of an epoch-making invention."

Maris Billy Animsfia said sincerely: "I never thought of being able to cooperate with ordinary people who don't know magic, because most of them can't comprehend the knowledge of occultism, and they can't even use their skills." works, but..."

"—but I'm different."

In the laboratory, the mustache businessman confidently declared: "I am Iron Man, and the whole world knows that Iron Man is omnipotent."

And this is not the only epoch-making invention. In addition to the Ark reactor and the magic power generator, the promotion of the Extremis virus is still in the queue. It seems that it is difficult to make some epoch-making inventions—— He can guarantee that at this time next year, he will definitely win the top related awards in the world.

However, these are very important, and they are not that important.

After knowing that the enemy Alphonse faced was called destiny, he understood why the other party was clearly a decisive person, but always had some hesitation and habits when making choices.

Before reaching his goal, no matter how dangerous the situation is, he must ensure that he survives, but subconsciously reduces the fetters and connections between himself and the people around him-because death is almost an inevitable end, since the early Once you have the awareness to use the second method to provide magic power, then you can only try your best not to make people around you feel sad because of parting.

In my impression, the blond jeweler is a cold but gentle person.

"I can do my best to assist you, even using the resources of Stark Industries, and if you need it, I can even contact S.H.I.E.L.D.—I don't think you have heard of this. The department that wiped the ass of the mess caused by the magician? Homeland Strategic Defense Offensive and Logistics Support Agency, although the name is long-winded and troublesome, you should remember it well."

Tony Stark shrugged at the astronomical monarch: "I have only one request—never, don't try to pry Alphonse's life in your plan."

"This really surprised me, Mr. Stark, your behavior logic is completely different from what I expected at the beginning, and it is also completely different from most magicians... Let me take the liberty to say that I thought you would The more calm and rational kind.”

"I can assure you, I'm perfectly rational now."

Tony spread his hands: "This is the conclusion I got after rational thinking."

Alright, alright, the silver-haired magician let out a long sigh of relief, and smiled again.

"Then, I formally invite you, Mr. Stark."

The silver-haired magician bowed slightly to Tony Stark and saluted.

"Marisbili Yasmiret Animsfia, the monarch of the Clock Tower's Astronomical Department, sincerely invites you to become the technical advisor of the Humanity Survival Guarantee Organization, Phineas Chaldeas."

The two hands were clasped together, and each of them showed a business smirk.

The bell to change the world will finally ring.

The author has something to say: "Come on, the future."
