Lin Xu opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling above him, feeling as if he had slept for an eternity.

Only after throwing the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade into the empty Sub-Dimension did he have time to examine his surroundings.

It's a very typical central China decorating style, but I don't know where it is.

Clang~

The door opened, and Tony and Clark walked in first.

Lin Xu turned around and his eyes lit up when he saw Tony.

"Hey Tony!"

"You... know me?"

"Don't you recognize me? Looks like this is another universe. Well, that makes sense, all the Tony I know are just ordinary people."

Clearly, the thermal energy contained within Tony's body had nowhere to hide under the Heavenly Eye.

Then, Lin Xu looked at the chubby-faced Clark and instantly thought of the scene in Iron Man 3 where Tony and the little boy Harry from Tennessee were together.

But in just a moment, he overturned his idea, because at this moment, Clark, under the dual perception of the Heavenly Eye and spiritual power, was like a sun that was still burning.

"Who is this child?"

Tony looked into Lin Xu's eyes and pursed his lips. "Since you know me, it means we at least share the same worldview, or rather, the same Multiverse..."

"What's the meaning?"

Finally, Joseph returned, panting. He looked at Lin Xu apologetically and shoved the child behind him. "Clark, what did you promise me?"

"K... K?" Lin Xu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Both Joseph and Clark turned to look at Lin Xu, their minds filled with doubt.

Am I/my son famous? Everyone seems to know me.

"That's right, just like you think." Facing Lin Xu's inquisitive gaze, Tony Bear shrugged to confirm.

"Wow!"

Lin Xu hesitated for a moment, then grabbed Tony and walked out the door.

"Hey? Let go of me! I'm warning you, don't push me to use force!"

"Stop joking, the heat from that Extremis Virus is barely enough to be used as a hand warmer."

"You know about the Extremis Virus?"

"How fresh!"

Tony didn't move again. He knew the man in front of him wasn't lying; he had experienced the tearing force of a quantum black hole firsthand.

He was tortured to such an extent just from the outer perimeter; this guy practically crawled out of a black hole.

Soon, Lin Xu flew Tony to a small river dozens of kilometers away. After confirming that young Clark couldn't hear from that far, he put Tony down and asked, "Why did I come here?"

"That's what I wanted to ask you!" Tony rolled his eyes. "I was traveling through time perfectly fine, and then you popped out of the time tunnel with a black hole in tow... wait... who are you anyway?"

You wouldn't recognize him even if I told you, Lin Xu ~

"Uh... cough cough cough." Having heard Lin Xu's name so many times from Howard, he almost blurted it out reflexively.

"Huh? You've heard of me before? Are you going to call me Angke Lin?" Lin Xu looked at Tony with a suspicious expression.

"No..."

"Really?" Lin Xu clearly didn't believe him and immediately used his Telepathy on Tony.

However, due to his lack of familiarity and insufficient mental strength, he only managed to read two strange titles intermittently.

"Old bastard? Old popsicle?"

Tony's body suddenly froze, and he looked at Lin Xu as if he had seen a ghost!

"You..."

I can't read minds.

Tony:????

"Tsk, the old bastard and the old popsicle duo, and they know me too. Looks like you went to the Mutants universe. Agamotto actually let you in; looks like he doesn't know the value of a troublemaker. By the way, where's your Quantum Locator?"

What locator?

"How did you travel through time without Quantum Locator?"

Hearing this, and considering the hammer he couldn't lift, Tony was now almost certain that the person in front of him was Lin Xu, the one the old popsicle had mentioned.

Thor's uncle, a god of Asgard, but now the hammer is in his hands, it seems Thor's attempt to seize the throne has failed.

Thinking of this, Tony held up his slightly damaged watch on his wrist. "I rely on this, a friend's Time Watch."

"Time Watch... you're not talking about Wade Wilson, are you?"

"Oh, you know him?"

"... Special code." (in Chinese)

After all that, it turns out the accident was caused by two (or three) troublemakers working together.

Clearly, he had completely absolved himself of any responsibility in his mind.

"What's wrong with the tomatoes?" (Tomato in English: special)

"... The tomatoes are fine." With that, Lin Xu walked away into the distance.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"Where else can we go? Of course, we'll go ask God if we can be treated as illegal immigrants and sent back."

"... Uh, I think I might have a way." As he said this, Tony put one hand in his pocket and shook his Time Watch with the other.

Whoosh~

Lin Xu arrived in front of Tony in the blink of an eye.

"Come on, Tony, I knew it! You're the best!"

Split Timeline.

Stephen awoke from a vast ocean.

He shook his still slightly dizzy head and quickly opened a Mystic Portal to the New York Sanctum.

The next moment, on the sea surface a hundred meters away, the other side of the Mystic Portal quietly appeared.

"Watt?"

How did the New York Sanctum end up in the ocean?

A bad feeling crept into Stephen's heart, and he quickly urged the Cloak of Levitation upwards.

Soon, an incredibly spectacular scene appeared before his eyes.

Where New York used to be, everything is gone; the seawater flooded in and submerged everything.

Not far away, numerous helicopters circled overhead, while search and rescue vessels at sea found nothing.

Without a second thought, Stephen reached out and summoned three Eye of Agamotto and Orb of Agamotto, which burst forth from the water.

He carefully collected all of his own items, as well as Lin Xu's, and then put the Eye of the Universe around his neck.

Silently recite the incantation and form the hand seal.

Soon, an enormous, dark green array appeared in the sky above New York, and then Stephen's temples began to turn gray.

The energy required for this time reversal was enormous, and Lin Xu condensed all of Ego's divine power into the Seal of Vishanti.

He could only use the forbidden techniques recorded in the Book of Cagliostro, consuming his life force...

However, he wasn't worried at all about dying of old age; at worst, he could borrow some energy from the dimensional lords when he had the chance...

With the power of the Eye of Agamotto and the Time Stone, the search and rescue ships and helicopters departed, the seawater flowed back, the city was restored, and humanity was reborn.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Stephen looked relieved, then fell from the sky.

Steve: "Where's my hammer?"

Xiao Wang: "Where is my Eye of Agamotto?"

Lao Wang: "Where are the enemies?"

Only Strange, whose Split Timeline, instantly flies into the sky and catches Stephen.

He felt very strange at that moment, as if a part of his body had been ripped out, or as if the shackles binding him had been severed.

"It seems we succeeded... but Lin..."
