You Actually Have Time to Go Fishing?

After handing all the artworks over to Hawkeye, Tony collapsed onto the sofa.

"Shit, finally finished. I wonder when that Mad Titan Lin mentioned, the mastermind behind the Battle of New York, will finally arrive. I can't wait to have a go at him!"

I casually picked up the now-cold cheeseburger from the coffee table and stuffed it into my mouth in a few bites.

"By the way, did Lin contact you on F.R.I.D.A.Y.?"

"Yes, sir, Director Lin just inquired with me about the 1976 Maine arson attack."

Maine?

"Yes, sir, according to Director Lin's location data, he is indeed in Maine."

Why did he run so far?

"Surveillance is scarce in Chamberlain, where Director Lin lives, but based on his activity patterns in Houston a week ago, he was probably fishing."

What the hell?

Tony was so angry that he stood up abruptly from the sofa.

"I'm busy working all day here, and he still has time to go fishing. Aren't we supposed to be protecting reality? Is this how he protects it?"

F.R.I.D.A.Y. was in a difficult position to respond to, even if he was just an artificial intelligence.

"F.R.I.D.A.Y.!"

"Sir~"

"Activate all ground-based detection and satellite patrols to monitor all anomalies within the solar system in real time. Also, arrange for a nearby yacht to be searched."

"OK."

"Hmph, it's just fishing, anyone can do that!"

"Rhodey, Rogers, Robin Hood, let's go fishing!"

Lin Xu squatted by the river, fiddling with it for a long time.

Then he confirmed one thing: Carrie's soul, though broken, had not gone to Hell and was still in this skeleton.

But Marduk had already drained most of the spirituality from her soul, and what remained was only enough to maintain her current state.

The action just now was simply because the skeleton had been buried for so long, and upon encountering air, it reflexively squeezed out.

What a pity~

Lin Xu looked at the pile of bones with some difficulty. If he buried them somewhere, the soil there would be tainted by the demon's aura.

It would be a shame to destroy it directly, since as the offspring of a level two demon, these bones would certainly have some collectible value.

Forget it, let's just bring it back to Kamar-Taj. After all, it was a significant dimensional invasion, even though it ended before it even began.

What is morning in North America is already evening in Kathmandu.

When Lin Xu returned to Kamar-Taj with a skeleton in tow, he walked through the training grounds and happened to see the King.

He was holding a new phone and taking pictures of the hill behind him.

Upon seeing Lin Xu, he quickly put his phone in his pocket and walked towards the library as if nothing had happened.

Lin Xu was somewhat puzzled, so he asked Strange and the Ancient One, who were meditating in the sunset.

"What's wrong with Wang? Why did he run away when he saw me?"

Strange opened his eyes, hesitant to speak. Although it wasn't good to talk about his colleagues behind their backs, he really wanted to say it.

But Ancient One beat her to it. "See his phone? A Meizu 9 Pro, Leica dual camera, over 600 euros. Guess where he got the money?"

"Oh yeah, he's such a poor guy who has to be careful with his meals, yet he got a new phone. Where did he get the money?"

"He went to the mountains a couple of days ago and dug up a few kilograms of Wuling Ginseng, which he sold to your restaurant."

Lin Xu:...

You fucking genius!

But this is his fault. All the Avengers brothers got new phones, but Lao Wang wasn't considered. That shouldn't be the case.

"Huh? A half-demon, you went to Maine?"

Lin Xu didn't speak, just quietly looked at Ancient One.

The old man knew just as he suspected; it seems he was right, that Old Deng wanted to leave all those messy debts to the next successor.

Ancient One felt a little guilty under Lin Xu's gaze and quickly retorted, "Ahem, I was just checking that he wasn't doing anything wrong~"

"If you're not dead, he wouldn't dare do anything reckless."

Lin Xu rolled his eyes, then picked up the bone string in his hand and asked, "What did you mean by the 'half-blooded god and demon' you just mentioned?"

"Didn't you realize? Her father is Marduk, and her mother is a descendant of the Eternals. Otherwise, how do you think her mother killed her?"

"Just a skeleton, how do I see her... wait a minute, you mean her mother, a descendant of the Eternals, actually believes in God, right?"

"What's the big deal? There are plenty of traitors among the Eternals..." The Ancient One seized the opportunity to quickly offer a scornful remark.

"Alright, you can handle this thing yourself. It's decently strong and has some magic immunity. Don't bring just any junk back to Kamar-Taj in the future."

Lin Xu ignored Old Deng's sarcastic remarks; his attention was focused on strength and magic immunity.

Since that's the case...

"Alright, I got it. You two old folks can continue enjoying the sunset. I'm still young, time to go home and sleep..."

Strange, who remained silent throughout:???

On a luxury yacht.

Vision a cameo appearance as the captain, Natasha and Wanda sit together drinking champagne, Tony and Banner stand at the bow enjoying the sea breeze, and Rhodey catches Hawkeye telling him his lame jokes.

The only real fishermen are the Captain America: Civil War brothers.

"Hey guys, we're good at fighting or fishing, but fishing... if you guys don't come and help, our yacht grilled fish plan for lunch today will be ruined."

"That's right, if you guys don't come soon, I'm going to wear a hang glider and imitate a seagull."

"Go for it! I believe in you!"

Tony ignored Captain America and Sam's pleas for help and quietly pulled out a toothpick, sticking it into Banner's arm.

"Oh~ Tony?"

"Ahem, I was just checking to see if Hulk really wasn't coming out. Don't tear your armor out of shape!"

When the Hulk was mentioned, Banner's expression became complicated.

He had tried several times in private since he returned, but Hulk's attitude remained the same: resistance.

He himself wasn't sure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. Although he had a clear mind, the impending crisis forced him to put on the armor Tony had prepared for him.

Although he didn't really want to fight...

Soon, Lin Xu arrived at the Avengers Compound carrying Carrie's skeleton.

Since this thing is powerful and has magic immunity, why not have Tony connect it together and make a bone armor for Hulk?

Then I'll give him two more Seal of Vishanti.

As a must-play item for Marvel wizards, Hulk really needs magic immunity.

This increases their chances of defeating Dark Strange.

"Tony, hey~ where did he go?"

"Tony Stark!"

After calling for a long time, no one responded; the entire Avengers Compound was empty.

He even thought Thanos the Snap ahead of time.

"F.R.I.D.A.Y.?"

"Hello, Mr. Lin~"

Where are they?

"The gentleman took everyone out to sea for fishing."

Upon hearing F.R.I.D.A.Y.'s answer, Lin Xu froze on the spot, a nameless rage igniting within him.

Well, I'm busy working myself to the bone for the safety of the universe, and you guys actually have time to go fishing?
