Steve: Tony, Lin Sacrificed Himself

At night, Lin Xu walked out of the house alone.

All of my abilities were tested.

First, there's the divine power. Because the Asgard Lock were broken, the divine power within him can still circulate here without any hindrance.

Secondly, there's magic. He possesses a page of the White Magic Book in his mind, which contains information about Vishanti magic, as well as most of the basic magic of Kamar-Taj, such as Mystic Portal, Levitation Spell, Healing Spell, Energy Projection, Astral Projection, and so on.

However, some of the additional magic unique to the dimensional masters of Marvel, such as "The Shuma-Gorath's Gaze" and "The Mephisto's Temptation," would be incredibly clunky to use.

Even if one tried to simulate their energy form with their own divine power, it still wouldn't work; the gaps between the world barriers were as vast as an insurmountable chasm.

The only somewhat useful one is the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak, since the Crimson Cloak is the embodiment of the Crimson Power.

All of the above are nerfs, but Lin Xu discovered something that received an epic buff.

That's the 'Spirit of Vengeance' that's been stored within Hoggoth's Bone Armor. There are many versions of this thing in Marvel, the most well-known of which is that it's a weapon left by Jehovah to fight Mephisto, which Mephisto eventually forced into a contract with...

In the Marvel, Jehovah, though also called God, is merely the leader of the Earth dimension. He is not even comparable to Gaia, let alone the One-Above-All (OAA) or the Five... Four Great Gods.

But DC is different; this God is the real God!

Perhaps the strengthening of the Spirit of Vengeance is related to the God here.

Thinking of this, Lin Xu once again summoned the Spirit of Vengeance. What was originally just a white flame now revealed a hint of pale gold within it.

This dazzlingly luxurious white gold color~

He tentatively asked, "Hello, are you there?"

No response

"Grandpa, my arrival here was entirely accidental. Could you please take me back?"

Lin Xu was somewhat disappointed after waiting for a while and still receiving no response.

Lin Xu neither agreed nor disagreed with Tony's method; after all, it was another path.

But this doesn't mean he'll give up. Finding an opportunity to communicate with God will be his next goal.

Early the next morning.

"What? You're leaving? Where are you going?" Tony put down his favorite cheeseburger and turned to look at Lin Xu.

Clark felt the same way. Ever since overhearing his parents' conversation, Clark had become increasingly certain that Lin Xu and he definitely had some kind of relationship.

The cheerful morning was completely shattered by Lin Xu's farewell.

"Angke Lin, weren't you going to teach me how to control my power?"

Lin Xu ruffled Clark's hair. "It's not like I'm not coming back, I just want to travel around. Besides, you're still young. Learn from Tony first, and when you can lift the school bus out of the water, I'll teach you slowly."

Clark's attention was diverted, and he asked with some confusion, "Why is the school bus in the water?"

"... Maybe it's because it wants to take a bath."

After the meal, Tony pulled Lin Xu aside.

Tell me honestly, where are you going?

"Liverpool, London, or Los Angeles, it depends on the specific circumstances."

In less than two seconds, Tony's brain connected these three locations with DC Comics, and then concluded. "Constantine?"

Yes~

"No, you really want to find God?"

"What else can we do? Rely on your quantum fish-fishing device, which may never be ready in who knows how long?"

"It's a quantum detector!"

They're about the same.

"Much worse, okay?" Tony was speechless at Lin Xu's lack of knowledge, but after thinking about it, he agreed with Lin Xu's approach.

He takes the technology route, while Lin Xu takes the mystery route; by working on both, one of them is bound to succeed.

"In that case, give it to me!"

Lin Xu stared at Tony's outstretched hand, somewhat bewildered. "What's that?"

"Aren't you able to read minds?"

"Driving all the time is tiring... cough cough, I told you, I can't read minds."

Tony shook his head, extending his hand again. "I know you definitely have more than one gold bar; I need some seed money."

"Haha, you actually asked me for money, haha."

Tony:...

After laughing, Lin Xu took out seven gold bars, each weighing 100 ounces, and handed them all to Tony.

"So much?" After being enhanced, Tony easily lifted the more than forty pounds of gold with one hand.

He looked at the gold brick in his hand and recalled the mythological description of Asgard: "Gold bricks on the floor, could it really be true?"

However, he quickly dismissed this idea because he saw a familiar line of letters on the gold brick: [STARK].

Stark?

"Wait a minute, where did you come from?"

"Ahem, I forgot to tell you, I'm also the second largest shareholder of your company's industrial division!"

Another one: I must have been blind to allow someone like that to hold shares!!

Then Tony suddenly turned around and looked into the room.

Lin Xu knew what he was worried about. "After I took that piece out, I removed that thing. You can handle these things yourself."

Tony breathed a sigh of relief. Their identities couldn't be revealed to young Clark yet, lest he overthink things.

Moreover, during this conversation, he and Lin Xu tacitly avoided mentioning any information that could reveal their identities.

Half an hour later~

Lin Xu said goodbye to the Joseph family and gave Clark another hug.

He then turned and left.

"Wait, Lin, your hammer!"

"I'll leave it with you first."

Marvel ~ Branch Timelines (Lin Xu Main Universe)

Stephen used the Orb of Agamotto to open a portal across the universe, bringing Lao Wang Captain America back with him.

Although they had managed to resolve the crisis, the three remained in low spirits.

Captain America and Xiao Wang both believed that Lin Xu had perished together with the enemy in this multi-faceted crisis, but only Stephen still firmly believed that his senior brother was still alive.

After all, Christine still needs him to bail her out...

Although this wait may be a bit long.

"Captain, we're going back to Kamar-Taj, you..."

"... Send me back to New York."

"Good!"

At this moment, the Avengers Compound was buzzing with heated discussions about how to take revenge on Lin Xu.

Tony: "How about canned herring?"

Natasha: "I think blue cheese is better."

Sam raised his hand. "Where's Black Egg?"

Rhodey: "Please, he's of Chinese descent; preserved eggs are nothing to him."

"That's true~"

Tony grinned wickedly. "Then let's use canned herring, blue cheese, and black-shelled eggs. While we're at it, mash them all up, wrap them into Chiaotzu, and hehe, you won't be able to tell from the outside."

This statement shocked everyone. Was it really a good idea to do this?

Just then, a ring of fire appeared, and Captain America returned.

"Hey Steve, we're discussing how to get revenge on Lin for recommending soy milk to us..."

"Tony, Lynn... is dead."

"What did you say?"

Steve opened his mouth, then lowered his head, his eyes reddening.

Bang~

"Fuck fuck fuck fuck!!"
