The Impending Invasion
Seeing Tsunade's actions, both Tony and Rhodey shuddered. Tony then realized what was happening and immediately went to inspect the shattered Hammer Drones beside him. He discovered that all the Hammer Drones had their chest Arc Reactor fitted with self-destruct devices. Without hesitation, he called Rhodey to help him collect the wreckage.
Charlotte walked up to Tsunade, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "The base is almost finished. There are better Laboratory and medical equipment over there."
"Let's go back and see what we still have that we can use."
Charlotte snapped her the Snap, and Steel Eagle descended from the sky, carrying the two away from the scene of the battle.
Tony scanned the giant eagle carrying Charlotte and the other person away with Jarvis and said incredulously, "A new kind of Summoned Beast?"
Rhodey asked in surprise, "What did you say?"
"It's nothing, let's get back to work!"
······
On the other side.
The ruins of Charlotte Agency.
A hand reached out and slowly pried away the rubble that was pressing down on her. She lay on the ruins, panting heavily. Her wounds were slowly healing under the moonlight. The person who had barely survived was the Vampire Catherine.
Charlotte and Tsunade quickly returned. Seeing that Catherine was still alive, Tsunade stepped forward and used Medical Ninjutsu to heal her injuries before taking her along to dig through the ruins.
Charlotte also activated Shizune, and after waking it up, she stored the remains of the Iron Warrior at the scene into her System Space.
However, the next second, Charlotte heard the Ancient One's voice. "The magic circle will be handed over in Queen of Asgard. Prepare to defend against Hell."
"This is simply the most likely location during Hell invasion, coordinates XXX."
······
the next day.
New York Continental Hotel.
Ginny rushed anxiously to the conference room. Before dawn, she received the news that the Agency had been bombed yet again.
"Boss, are you alright?"
Seeing Ginny's anxious face, Charlotte paused for a moment before speaking, "I was unharmed, but apart from William and Alexander, who were imprisoned in the basement, and Tsunade, Shizune, and Catherine were present at the time, all the other staff members of the Agency perished in this attack."
Upon hearing Charlotte's answer, Ginny fell silent for a moment, then said, "I will compensate their families according to the highest standards."
Charlotte, then said, "I've already moved everything from the Agency's underground vault. You'll need to arrange for people to rebuild the Agency."
"Tsunade has made progress on the Super Soldier Serum, but it won't be enough time to deal with the current events in the Magic World. In the meantime, you and John will be in charge of the reconstruction and the funerals for the fallen."
Upon hearing Charlotte's words, Ginny asked nervously, "Is the invasion from the Hell Dimension about to begin?"
"Yes, it's about to begin."
Ginny rushed forward and hugged Charlotte tightly, then said earnestly, "You must come back safely."
"It's not as dangerous as you think. This battle against Hell won't harm me."
However, Charlotte now possessed Undying Body, which greatly enhanced her ability to survive.
Ginny released Charlotte and nodded seriously.
"Then I'll take some people and go to the Agency first to take a look, and start the reconstruction work immediately."
"Go!"
Watching Ginny leave, Charlotte picked up her phone and called Tony.
"Hey buddy, what's up?"
"I'm currently communicating with the government, and they definitely want to award us a medal this time. I plan to have Congressman Stern present it to us personally."
"Hahaha, I can already imagine what that guy's face will look like."
"Tony, let's postpone the award ceremony. The matter I told you about last time is about to begin. I'll be waiting for you in the conference room on the top floor of the New York Continental Hotel."
"Wow, so fast! Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
Tony donned his Iron Man Armor, carrying two Suitcase, and flew out of the Villa, heading towards the Continental Hotel.
······
At this moment, all the ninjas received Charlotte's message and rushed back to the Continental Hotel.
In the conference room, Charlotte looked at the ninjas before her and said, "Tomorrow is the day to defend against the invasion of Hell. I will take everyone to the Magic World later. The combat supplies will be distributed now, and you can take what you need."
"Yes!" X12
Seeing the unanimous agreement of the crowd, Charlotte waved her hand and took out a large number of Kunai, Explosive Tags, Fuma Shuriken, Tanto, and other items she had purchased from the System Store, placing them in front of everyone.
Everyone stepped forward to collect their respective combat supplies according to their needs, but the Explosive Tags were all distributed immediately.
Charlotte put away all the remaining Ninja Tools.
······
At that moment, Tony arrived at the entrance of the New York Continental Hotel, piloting his Iron Man Armor. His landing caused quite a stir.
The doorman stared in disbelief at Iron Man before him, thinking to himself, "We're doomed, Iron Man is coming to fight crime."
Tony walked through the hotel doors. The expressions of the staff and the idle assassins inside all changed, and the atmosphere instantly plummeted to freezing point.
Tony removed his mask. "How do I get to the conference room? I'm meeting Charlotte."
Upon hearing Tony's words, the cold sweat on the foreheads of the many assassins present subsided. It was good that he wasn't there to cause trouble; if Iron Man had come knocking, they really wouldn't know how to defend themselves unless they called in Charlotte Doyle. Fortunately, Tony was there to find someone.
A waiter approached Tony: "The meeting room is on the top floor, please follow me."
Tony followed the waiter, carrying two suitcases in both hands, and went upstairs.
Tony walked in as the conference room door opened.
Seeing Tony enter, Charlotte said, "Everyone's finally here. We can go now."
Tony entered the conference room and, looking at the thirteen people present, said, "Guys, I brought three sets of equipment. That should be enough, right?"
Looking at Tony in his armor, Charlotte smiled and said, "I don't know about that. I hope it's useful to you."
"Now we're ready to go!"
Tony turned around and was about to walk out of the meeting room.
"Tony, Tony, not outside."
Tony stopped and turned to look at Charlotte Doyle, then asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you were leaving?"
Charlotte shook her head. "We're going to set off, but not the way you're doing it."
Charlotte then went to the center of the conference room, formed Merlin Teleportation Array with her hands, and as Chakra was converted into magic power through the Dragon Ring, a huge magic circle suddenly appeared on the ground in the next second.
Seeing the Formation of eerie blue flames burning on the ground, Tony was startled and even lifted one foot.
"Dude, what is this? It doesn't look like ninja at all; it's more like magic."
"Everyone, get inside the Formation, we're about to depart."
Tsunade and the other twelve all entered the Formation, and Tony also came in when he saw this.
"Dude, don't tell me you know magic besides Ninjutsu."
I'll explain when we get there.
Charlotte then activated Formation Chakra, and the next moment everyone felt a sense of weightlessness. Then, in a flash, they found themselves inside Merlin's Wizard Tower.
Seeing the scene change before him, Tony loosened his grip, dropping the two Suitcase he was holding. He wanted to rub his eyes, but seeing the armor on his body, he gave up.
Tony stepped out of the magic circle, looked at the unfamiliar surroundings, turned around, and shouted to Charlotte:
"My god, buddy, what kind of technique is that?"
"Time-space teleportation, Space Wormhole, or magic or Ninjutsu!"
"This is absolutely incredible."
As he spoke, Tony crouched down and touched the magic circle marks on the ground below.
"Tony, this is a magic circle. We are now in Magic World."
"It really is magic!"
"Jarvis, where are we?"
"Sir, I have lost contact with the mainframe. If Mr. Charlotte is not mistaken, we may not be on Earth at the moment."
Just then, the doors of the Magic Tower opened, and Balthazar led Dave in.
Welcome back to the world of magic.
Looking at the two unfamiliar people in front of him, Tony looked at Charlotte, hoping to get an answer.
"Professor Balthazar, Junior Dave."
Charlotte walked towards the two of them and said, "Junior Brother Dave, I'm assigning you a task: to educate this Mr. Tony about the world."
Dave looked at Tony, who was wearing Iron Man Armor, and walked over to explain it to him. Tony also touched himself a few times, and the armor came off and turned into a Suitcase.
"Everyone, please feel free to do as you please. I have something to discuss with Professor Balthazar."
Charlotte then walked out of the Magic Tower.
Charlotte stepped out of the Magic Tower and casually formed a hand seal. Instantly, the Wood Clone within the Magic World vanished, and Charlotte absorbed its memories.
Charlotte paused outside the Magic Tower for a moment before speaking, "Teacher Balthazar, tomorrow is the day of the magic circle handover, and also the day of Hell's invasion."
Balthazar nodded, and then the two walked and talked, "Everything is ready here, we're just waiting for the magic circle to be handed over."
"The mages guarding the Magic Tower are all archmages from the Merlin Knights. With them in charge, there's absolutely no problem operating the magic array."
"After that, all we need to do is keep an eye on the magic circle. As long as it doesn't suffer internal damage, there won't be any problems. Merlin's Wizard Tower will provide the magic circle with a continuous supply of energy."
"As for the mage ranks that will defend against the invasion from Hell, they have all assembled. The key question is where the invasion from Hell will begin."
Charlotte pondered the message the Ancient One had given her, and then led Balthazar to Great Rift on a plain in the Magic World.
"The spatial barriers here are the weakest, and it's also the closest point to the Hell Dimension. According to the Sorcerer Supreme, the invasion of Hell will begin here."
Balthazar looked at the Great Rift before him, gazing down into the darkness that seemed to stretch endlessly. The wind blew through the rift, carrying strange, eerie sounds.
"We'll gather all the mages here shortly and prepare for defense, preventing the creatures of Hell from crossing the plains."
"While there's still time, we can set up more magical traps here, which will also allow the ninjas I brought to prepare in advance."
After showing Balthazar the site of the final battle, the two returned to Merlin's Wizard Tower.
······
Triskelion.
Nick Fury looked at the report in his hand and felt a headache coming on.
The attack by the Iron Warrior yesterday caused widespread panic among the public and resulted in numerous casualties.
Countless civilians attending the Stark Expo were attacked by Hammer Drones, although efforts to appease and compensate them have begun.
Justin Hammer was immediately apprehended and held primarily responsible for the attack; Hammer Industries' assets were also frozen for compensation purposes.
However, when Nick Fury tried to communicate with Tony, he found he couldn't reach him.
Charlotte's Agency was reduced to ruins, and she could no longer be contacted.
The door to Nick Fury's office was pushed open, and an agent walked in and immediately reported:
"Director, someone saw Tony wearing Iron Man Armor entering the New York Continental Hotel, supposedly to meet Charlotte."
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Nick Fury knew that the two had gotten together, but he wondered what they were discussing. He then put down the preliminary Avengers report that he had prepared specifically for Tony.
······
New Mexico.
At the spot where Mjolnir landed, an old man driving a pickup truck stared at the Hammer in the crater in front of him, but no matter what he did, he couldn't lift it.
After realizing he couldn't take it with him, he made phone calls to invite more friends to try. Soon, a large crowd gathered, and they began to try to pick it up. As everyone called on their friends, the number of people gathered grew larger and larger.
This led to many amusing incidents. No matter how strong the town's strongest man was, he couldn't lift Mjolnir. Even when people tried to pull it with a pickup truck chained to it, they couldn't move the Hammer an inch.
At that moment, Coulson arrived near the scene in his car. Looking at the deep crater in front of him, he reported, "Sir, we've found it."
Thor, who had just escaped, was hit by Jane Foster's car again and brought back.
······
Magic World
As Dave explained, Tony also understood that this was another world, a world attached to Earth but existing in a different dimension.
"No wonder I couldn't find you anywhere; it turns out you're not even on Earth."
"Mr. Tony, I'm actually a graduate student at New York University."
"······"
Dave smiled and then led Tony around the nearby streets, giving him a more direct experience of the Magic World.
As the two were strolling around, Dave received a message and said to Tony, "Mr. Tony, my senior brother wants us to meet at the Magic Tower. We need to go back now."
Tony put down the Jumping Frog he was holding. "OK, looks like we need to get down to business."
