You Protect the World, I'll Protect You

When Tony and the other two woke up, they saw Xia Yu with a resentful expression, as if Xia Yu had slept with them. To prevent this from happening again, Xia Yu had no choice but to threaten them.

"You must get at least seven hours of sleep every day. If this happens again, I'll take everything away and smash your research. I can come and check anytime, no matter where I am."

The three people who were eager to perform energy tests on Xia Yu displayed the behavior of super sycophants, nodding in agreement with everything Xia Yu said. Xia Yu was not a scientist, and he could not feel the kind of drive and direction that scientists had for their research projects, so Xia Yu gave them a good look of contempt.

To prevent himself from overworking these three people to death due to inadequate supervision, and also to lighten their burden, Xia Yu came up with a very effortless solution.

He contacted Nova Prime and Star-Lord, requesting detailed information on various life-bearing planets in the universe, fixed wormholes, and other relevant details. Xia Yu's spaceship also had a rough version of this information, but it wasn't as detailed as theirs.

Then Xia Yu, pulling Thor along, unintentionally let Jane Foster and his father, Dr. Selvig, see this document. As a result, the Avengers' Science Team gained two powerful scientists, and Thor also ended up supervising and running errands alongside them.

Dr. Selvig has conducted detailed research on how the Tesseract opens wormholes, and it is believed that his arrival will accelerate the progress of the super spaceship.

The Captain and his team were still in Europe. Xia Yu went to see them once. With nothing to do, Hill ran to Nick Fury's side again. While the Captain and the others were in Europe, they cleaned up some of Hydra's peripheral organizations. In the end, Nick still formed an intelligence team again.

It can be considered a reorganization of S.H.I.E.L.D.., but it doesn't bear the name of S.H.I.E.L.D.. anymore. Instead, it becomes an intelligence group under the Avengers. Peggy Carter generously gave all the funds that the United Nations gave to the Avengers to Nick Fury. According to her, the Avengers are now very rich and do not lack funds at all. If necessary, a few Hero can go out and do a round of advertisements.

Xia Yu, along with Natasha and the Captain, went to clear out Hydra's peripheral organizations a few times. The overwhelming strength made Xia Yu feel bored, and the Captain and Bucky also felt that Xia Yu's presence made their battles uninteresting, so they sent Xia Yu back.

Shamelessly running back to the base to join the Science Team's fun, he was once again complained to Tony for being a hindrance. He was then asked to run errands, like buying coffee for everyone, but Thor complained that Xia Yu had taken his job.

With nothing else to do, Xia Yu went to Asgard and had tea with Odin twice, retrieved the Tesseract, and then entered a state of sagehood, occasionally expanding his and Natasha's rings and engaging in important matters related to human reproduction.

For three whole months, Xia Yu had become so bored that he carved out a space for entertainment in this huge studio. Every day, he would idly watch movies, play games, upgrade his ring, and occasionally accept Tony and the others' summons to act as experimental subjects.

After Hawkeye returned from his trip, he joined Thor and Natasha, making a group of four. So, they added a new activity to their daily routine: playing mahjong.

Xia Yu, a Huaxia man, was already bullying three foreigners by playing mahjong with them, but Xia Yu shamelessly used the system to create a card counter, essentially playing the game with a cheat code, and completely decimated the other three players.

Sure enough, Xia Yu drew another Thirteen Orphans, and only one One of Bamboo was left to complete his hand. Having used the system to peek at all the tiles, Xia Yu knew that he could win by drawing the next tile himself.

Xia Yu's opponent to his left was Thor. This guy was slow to learn these things, and his hand was particularly messy. He would pick up a card and stare at it for a long time, which made Xia Yu very anxious.

"Thor, can you hurry up? You're the Thor, you can summon Flash, not the God of Swamps," Xia Yu urged.

"Big brother, you know I'm not very bright, and I haven't been learning this for very long. Let me take a good look at it, don't rush me," Thor said, scratching his head.

Xia Yu's eagerness indicated he was about to win, a pattern Hawkeye had already observed. Eagle Eye teased Xia Yu, "Thor, think it over carefully. Xia's behavior means he's about to win."

A few people are arguing and bickering here.

Tony's voice came from the other end.

"Guys, come and see this brand-new Nanotechnology! It's far more advanced than the one Xia brought back from space."

"Let me see!" Thor suddenly stood up, even overturning the mahjong table. Xia Yu was about to win with a Thirteen Orphans hand, but Thor ruined it all. Who said Thor was slow-witted?

Xia Yu sighed helplessly, stood up, and walked towards Tony and the others.

Unlike Tony's Mark 85 in the movies of Xia Yu's previous life, this time Tony not only covered his chest with a small reactor, but also put a ring on each Tony his limbs.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the moment to witness a great miracle has arrived! Tony Stark's latest technology! JARVIS, play some music!" Tony unleashed the same flamboyant energy he had at the Stark Expo.

JARVIS played a heavy metal rock song, and Tony swayed his hips to the beat with a look of pure enjoyment.

"Damn it, Tony, you look like a third-rate street magician. Can you hurry up?" Xia Yu rolled his eyes at Thor, remembering the grudge from that hand of cards.

Thor shrank back, pretending not to see, and instead shouted "Bravo!" and clapped enthusiastically.

"Look, Xia, even Thor is applauding for me. You, a mere mortal, must be jealous of me." As he spoke, Tony pressed his chest twice, and the metal block on his chest and the metal blocks on his limbs seemed to melt.

Like a flowing stream, it climbed up Tony's body from all angles, covering his entire body, including his head.

Xia Yu looked at the Armor Tony wore, which was over 90% similar to the Mark 85 from the movies of his previous life, and a glimmer of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

I remember when Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame were released, I bought a ticket for the IMAX premiere at a high price. When this Armor first appeared on the big screen, there was a gasp of amazement from the audience.

When Iron Man killed Thanos on Titan; when he was stranded on the Milano and adrift in space; when he finally obtained the six Infinity Stones, the Snap, and said, "I am Iron Man," this movie series accompanied Xia Yu for ten years. Iron Man was his favorite Hero, and Xia Yu shed tears when he sacrificed himself.

Flesh and blood, Ironheart, mortal strength, yet comparable to gods!

Wearing the Mark 85 Iron Man, he truly achieved the feat of being a mortal comparable to a god. This legend, which he had only seen in movies in his previous life, has come to fruition in this life under Xia Yu's personal witnessing and even his personal guidance, and has become his best friend.

And then there's the Arc Reactor from the first Iron Man arc, which had Pepper Potts engraving Tony Stark's warm heart on it, but now it's inscribed with "Heart of Xia" and worn on the chest of his Armor.

In my past life, I watched you save the world through the big screen. In this life, you continue to protect this world, and I... will protect you!

My name is Xia Yu, and I come from the Avengers.
