The small town of Shepherd's Valley is filled with lingering fog all the year round.

When Pata fell from the sky, Tony almost thought he had come to some kind of fairyland—or hell.

He looked around, and through Maria's scan, he saw the surrounding houses, and he was sure that this place should be just an ordinary American town.

Bruce wasn't with him.

It seems that this time the two of them were not lucky enough to be separated together.

"Bruce Wayne? Wayne? Bruce?" Tony called twice, but no one answered, "Damn."

He cursed, it seemed that they were not only separated, but also far away.

[Maria. ] He flew to the office and tried to scan the entire town, only to find that the fog was too dense or there was some unknown power hidden in it. Maria had no way to penetrate the smog that enveloped the city.

This was not beyond Tony's expectations, after all, each world has its own rules.

Tapping the reactor on his chest twice, the battle armor on his body was collected into his reactor like flowing water.

New technology, he said, he must create a set of armor that is easy to carry.

Wearing only a black suit, Tony turned into the playboy again. He knocked on his glasses, and after a while, Maria reminded him that Bruce's communicator was online.

It looks like their comms haven't been blocked yet.

[How is your situation now? ] Bruce asked the first time he was connected.

Tony scanned the surrounding area. Although the surrounding area looked quiet, it didn't look like a normal place, but after all, apart from being quiet, this place was just an ordinary peaceful town.

[It looks like an ordinary place. ] Tony replied, he lifted his legs and walked to a house next to it, there was a light on in that house, it looked like someone, if he was lucky maybe he would find someone or something, so as to determine what the hell this place was, 【Where are you? 】

【no one. ] Bruce said, [or said nothing] After 1 minute, Tony heard him say, [...there is a problem with this fog, I can't find my bearings. 】

His tone sounded calm, but Tony was taken aback.

Bruce was not joking when he said he couldn't find his way. He really couldn't find his way, but under normal circumstances, would Batman lose his way?

He stopped knocking on the door, and raised his hand to adjust his watch to the detection state. After half a minute, a green light flashed on the surface: [There is no poison in the fog, and I remember you are wearing a gas mask? 】

[I brought it, it's not poison. ] Bruce said.

【Are you making excuses for getting lost?Wayne? 】Tony tried to liven up the atmosphere, 【You can just say, I won't laugh at you. 】

When he spoke, he had already scanned the house in front of him, and after confirming that there was no one inside, he decided to break through the door directly.

Kicking open the door, the raised dust hit Tony all over his face.

As he waved away the ashes, he looked into the house defensively.

【What are you doing? ] On the other end of the communicator, Bruce asked.

[Find us some clues. ] After confirming that it was safe, Tony walked in.

No one was in the house, but the living room light was on.

【Looks like I have to be Sherlock Holmes today. 】Tony cleared his throat, and told Bruce what he saw, 【Judging from the decoration of the house, it looks like the 90s.There was a lamp on the table, but there was no one in the whole house, and there was a thick layer of dust on the table and the floor. 】

He transmitted to Bruce what he saw before him, but there were some details that he could not transmit and could only dictate.

[This family doesn't look too rich. 】Bruce said that he was trapped in the fog, which gave him the energy to look at the image Tony sent him,【What is that? 】

Following his words, Tony turned his head and looked at the wall next to him. There was a triangle symbol on it with three circles in the middle.

[It looks like... a totem or something. ] Tony curled his lips, 【I've never seen this before. 】

[A certain religious totem. ] Bruce added

,【There is no such thing in my memory. 】

[It seems that this family is a Christian. 】Tony said his eyes lit up, 【I seem to see something... a diary?Omg, I finally found something that works. 】

Tony bent down and picked up the secret diary hidden in the corner of the stairwell. It was strange that someone would hide the diary here.

[It doesn't look like it's hidden, but it looks like it was stuffed in hastily. ] Bruce looked at the place where Tony passed over to hide the diary, and commented.

[If it is useful, it will be. ] Tony said, 【Have you found your way out yet? 】

[I think you are right, I am indeed lost. 】Bruce said,【From just now to now, I have walked a total of 36 minutes and 17 seconds, but the surrounding scene has not changed, it is still a thick fog, I suspect that my senses have been misled, I am circling around somewhere.Most importantly, I'm starting to feel tired. 】

Tony paused holding the diary: [Isn't this the limit of your physical strength? 】

[Maybe not even one percent. 】Bruce said, 【I've been trying to conserve energy, but it's useless. I'm starting to feel tired, how about you? 】

Bruce was right, he had already heard the heavier and heavier breathing on the other side of the communicator, if Tony hadn't understood Bruce, he would have thought he had just been running extremely fast for an hour, or more.

But he didn't, Bruce's footsteps were very slow from beginning to end, which shouldn't even count as physical exertion for him.

What about Tony?He didn't realize it when Bruce didn't mention it, but now that he said it, he suddenly felt his throat dry and wanted to drink water.

【I'm thirsty, I guess this is also a way to prove that my energy is exhausted faster than usual. 】Tony said that he found a bottle of water from the spares he carried, and then drank it. He guessed that Bruce on the other end also found his spare food from the bat belt, but they didn't bring much because they I never thought that this would turn into a survival game, [This place is weird, maybe you should stop, the physical exertion is too great, and once you encounter an attack, you will not be able to deal with it. 】

[I've stopped...] Bruce said, shadowy, Tony heard light footsteps from the communicator, and the sound of something dragging on the ground, [There are other things here. 】

The metallic sound on the opposite side suddenly became heavier. He wanted to remind Bruce, but before he reminded, Bruce reacted first: [Damn it! 】

He heard the sound of the wind driven by the bat's cloak as he retreated extremely fast, and the heavy sound of metal cutting through the air.

[Wayne?Bruce Wayne?Bruce! 】A second later, a busy tone came from the communicator.

Bruce unilaterally cut off communication with him.

what's going on?Wayne was attacked?Tony tried to contact Bruce again, but no matter what he did, there was only a busy tone on the communicator.

Calm down, Tony, Bruce Wayne will be fine, he told himself.

But he couldn't help it, he felt his heart beating fast, and his forehead was sweating non-stop.

It seemed that when he was emotionally agitated just now, his physical strength was even more exhausted.

He kept asking Maria to locate Bruce Wayne, but to no avail.

Gulu Gulu, he drank half a bottle of water, he didn't have much reserves, and such consumption was simply not enough to support him to continue walking.

Hell, it never occurred to him that one day Iron Man would die of thirst.

Calm down, Tony calm down, he took out the diary while thinking.

It is certain that there is something wrong with this small town, the most important thing now is to find out what is wrong with this place!

He asked Maria to locate the communication location just now, while he opened the diary.

This is a traveler's diary, which seems to be left by a traveler who came here by accident.

[This is the first time I came to this place, the town of Shepherd's Valley is really a beautiful town...]

Tony had just read two lines when he suddenly heard gunshots outside the door. He raised his head subconsciously, and the steel armor was put on him in an instant.

He rushed out quickly, only

I saw a man in a brown vest pointing a gun at an alley not far away.

a living person? !

Tony's eyes lit up, and it was much faster to ask a living person to ask a question than to read a diary.

He flew out directly, and didn't care if he smashed through the gate.

Tony lifted the mask: "Hey, my friend, my name is Tony Stark, you know..."

"Are you the one who took my brother away?" Who knows that just after he finished speaking, the man turned to him angrily.

He was holding a gun, and judging from his movements, he should be a soldier, trained.

"What? I'm not..."

"You bastards!" The man yelled and shot immediately.

Tony backed away quickly, and took the mask back in an instant: "You unreasonable person!"

He found that there was a hint of madness on the man's face, which didn't look like ordinary people would.

He had a vague sense that it might have something to do with the place itself, as it had with Bruce.

Convince first.

Tony thought, raising his hand was a shot.

The man moved very nimbly and easily dodged Tony's attack, and he was already in front of Tony in two steps.

Good chance, the moment he pushed him to the ground, Tony raised his hand and pressed it on the man's head. The current was strong enough to stun a grown man.

Who knew that the man swayed twice, and under Tony's stunned expression, he actually woke up.

Tony looked at him vigilantly, about to hit him again, but the anger and tyranny on the man's face disappeared after he blinked.

"Did I fall asleep? Did I fall asleep again?" The man looked around in surprise.

After looking at Tony and his situation, he got up quickly: "Sorry, I think I fell asleep, I'm really sorry..."

"My name is Alex, you are not from here, are you?"
