American comic book: My Father is Superman, am I just an NPC?

Chapter 85 Return, God-like Authority!
The brilliance of the Infinity Stones illuminated the surroundings.

I don't know why Digital Tony hasn't turned off the virtual projection.

"This isn't right? Why are there only four?"

Ian stared at the four gems in surprise, which contradicted the information he had heard that only the last gem was missing. However, after a moment's thought, Ian immediately looked up at the sky as if he had realized something.

This is wisdom at work.

But it didn't move completely.

Ian only saw the darkness projected virtually; he couldn't even see the ceiling of the base, let alone see the reflection of the planet devourer in his eyes.

"One of the gems is on the invincible Galactus, right... Even though he's dead, he still agreed to let me touch it. If you don't believe me, wait until I've touched it and then ask his corpse."

“I assure you my esteemed Uncle Galactus will not deny this.” Ian felt himself tainted by greed, one of the seven deadly sins, and Tony did not refute his assessment.

of course.

Digital Tony also offered no comment on Ian's necrophiliac request, stating, "Collecting all the Infinity Stones will be the time we verify whether we can succeed."

He stared at the floating Infinity Stones, seemingly unconcerned that it was all just a dream.

"They are so beautiful."

Ian's eyes widened in disbelief.

Upon seeing this, Digital Tony immediately caused the four Infinity Stones to float in front of Ian.

"Is it okay to touch this?"

Ian's fingertips touched the surface of the gemstone—cold and hard. The lack of the expected job gain made Ian feel slightly disappointed.

I didn't feel the surge of power either.

"Could it be that my immunity in this world also means I won't have the chance to use the Infinity Stones?" Ian sighed inwardly. He had previously guessed that Tony might want him to snap his fingers.

result?

Doesn't look like it?
"These gems are truly beautiful."

Digital Tony, upon seeing this scene, showed no change in expression whatsoever.

"They are the last Infinity Stones, and also the most powerful. The collapse of the multiverse also means that they are closer to their original form than ever before."

He simply spoke softly and explained to Ian.

"I know."

Ian nodded.

The story about the Infinity Stones originating from Nemesis is that she's one of the top 50 or even top 100 super-strong characters in Marvel. It's because Ian has heard this that he's now thinking about how to acquire a profession.

Must the gem be made to bleed?

still?

Ian frowned and activated his super intelligence.

at the same time.

Digital Tony stared at Ian, mimicking a surprised tone, "You're not even a little bit excited? The power that once represented omnipotence is now in your hands... in your mouth?!"

"No way! You actually put that in your mouth!?"

This time, Digital Tony's emotions were absolutely genuine.

He quickly raised his hand and pulled the Infinity Stones, and the four stones that Ian had already stuffed into his mouth broke through Ian's lips and flew out again.

"I actually just wanted to test my teeth and see if they were fit to be in my mouth." Ian wasn't telling the truth, which is perfectly normal.

He feared that Digital Tony wouldn't understand him.

sometimes.

Don't push your stomach too hard.

Who knows if the system is hidden inside?

"Can I have another bite?"

Undeterred, Ian tentatively glanced at the digital Tony.

This doesn't really have any impact on the world. He doesn't need to really digest and absorb the profession he acquires. After he empties his bowels and washes them, no one can tell that something is wrong.

The Infinity Stones might still be as brand new as if they were just made.

"..."

Digital Tony was speechless at Ian's suggestion and shook his head frantically.

To be honest, if he hadn't discovered that he didn't have the necessary permissions, he really wanted to allocate some computing power to make targeted predictions about Ian's behavior.

“I can grant you any other request, but this is absolutely out of the question.” Digital Tony simply took the Infinity Stone and deactivated the surrounding dark projection—the hall where many researchers were busily working reappeared, seemingly oblivious to the conversation that had taken place in the holographic projection. “Fine.”

Ian nodded with a hint of regret. He ultimately failed to find a successful way to transform the power of the Nemesis into a new profession and then make it great once again within himself.

Feeling depressed.

Ian grabbed a bag of snacks from a researcher's table and walked away. The researcher glanced at him, then protected his snack box, preventing Ian from successfully grabbing a second bag.

"You're wary of a good person like me?"

Sensing the researcher's wariness, the boy felt even more frustrated. He angrily threw down the Franklin he had already pulled out, only to find the researcher still staring at him with a helpless expression.

"Do you think I can still find a place to use money given how badly the world is in its current state?"

The researchers remain protective of their food.

"..."

This time, it was probably Ian's turn to be speechless.

"Perhaps you can use it to wipe your butt? Trust me, it's definitely better than paper; your butt will be full of guilt." Even a genius like him could only come up with such a flimsy excuse in the end.

"Is it possible that I don't need to wipe my butt at all because I'm using a disposable body?" The researcher stared at Ian with his big, bright eyes.

Eyes wide open.

After a while.

Speechless, Ian couldn't think of a response for a long time.

Fortunately, Digital Tony came to his rescue.

“You gluttonous brat, don’t make things difficult for Dr. Helen Zhao. Let’s talk. Do you have any other requests?” Digital Tony gave Ian a good way out.

Ian pretended to be very busy and quickly ran back.

"I wish I could touch Sentry and Omniknight." Ian was a content person, so he secretly added another name to the list to make himself feel satisfied.

"it is good."

Digital Tony seems to be having a great time.

"Your time has come."

He spoke very abruptly.

He then turned and gestured for the researcher to hand the box containing the demon's head back to Ian.

"Forehead……"

Ian had just taken the box.

“Ding~~~~”

The bells of reunion rang out immediately.

As Ian's body disappeared into the base, Betty, the scientist Ian had first encountered, who had been watching everything from the corner, couldn't help but come over.

“Tony, he comes and disappears mysteriously again and again. Nobody knows what his purpose is. We don’t even know who he is or where he comes from.”

“This is really dangerous for us…especially at a time like this.” Betty looked worried, and she felt Tony should be prepared for the uncertainty.

It's no wonder Betty is suspicious.

After all, this world should no longer contain purely living people and demons.

“Miss Rose, I no longer have any curiosity, so I don’t need to know where he comes from, nor do I need to know the purpose of his repeated appearances and disappearances.”

"All I need to do is try my best to meet his demands." The holographic projection of Digital Tony returned to the screen, with streams of data silently flowing across his face.

"Why? What exactly is going on between you and him? You didn't even agree to my request to analyze the demon he brought..." Betty frowned, her eyes filled with confusion.

She knew Ian had high-level access to this base, but she never expected his access to be this high—Tony's sole purpose should have been to reboot the world!
“I am not the complete Tony Stark, so I cannot give you a definitive answer. You just need to know that in this universe, that boy also possesses the highest authority.”

The air seemed to freeze.

There was a pause.

Tony spoke again.

"Higher than me, higher than you, higher than this base, higher than... everything." Tony's voice echoed in the empty hall, and Betty's face gradually turned pale.

Her face was filled with utter shock and horror.

The words of the savior.

This made the scientist feel a chill run down his spine.
