The Troubles of Reality
"Marvel's Magnetic Field Rotation"
The Master Gu Yi was drinking Wei Xiuming's improved milk tea, black tea with light cream and walnuts, it tasted great.
Not just her, but the vast majority of people in Kamar-Taj have fallen in love with this drink; with over ten varieties of milk tea, there's bound to be one that suits your taste.
It's not about indulging in any culinary desires, but rather that the high altitude and low temperatures of Kamar-Taj require a large amount of high-calorie food to sustain the body's needs. Therefore, upgrading the flavor based on this is a perfectly normal thing to do.
Upon hearing what Dahshir, who had rushed from the library, had told him, he immediately took the Eye of Agamotto to the library and used the power of the Time Stone to turn back time to the moment it disappeared.
Then, he said to the mage Dahshir, "The missing book is the Darkhold; it has found its most suitable master... This matter is no longer necessary."
The birth of the Scarlet Witch was inevitable.
Tony Stark is having a lot of trouble lately.
After the Battle of New York, he had ten times more to deal with than before.
First, the Avengers were formed.
Stark Tower inevitably suffered damage during World War I in New York, but its overall structure remained relatively intact. The wealthy landowners simply found another location to build a new Stark Tower, which was then renamed Avengers Tower Stark Tower became the Avengers' base of operations.
Then came the politicians' duties in a series of press conferences and congressional hearings.
In this war, S.H.I.E.L.D.. played the most significant role; they were the ones who shot down the Chitauri mothership in outer space, and it was their scientists who solved the problem of the space gate.
But all the credit goes to the Avengers.
Nick Fury's reasoning was that S.H.I.E.L.D.. is a secret organization, and in a sense, it belongs to the realm of urban legend.
Ideally, S.H.I.E.L.D.. should be like an intelligence agency across the ocean. People speculate that such an agency should exist, but they can't find Silk of it, not even a name for it.
With such a huge achievement, Tony Stark faces flashing lights and reporters almost every day—no one else is suitable to do it.
After the war ended and they finished eating steak, Thor took Loki back to Asgard and couldn't contact him anymore; Captain America was still entangled in a lawsuit with the United States military regarding image licensing, spending most of his time in court listening to the lawyers' heated arguments—the professionals at S.H.I.E.L.D.. believed that taking advantage of the heroism of the Battle of New York, public opinion was now in their favor, and catching up was the right way to go.
Black Widow Natasha is a veteran agent; unless S.H.I.E.L.D.. collapses, she will not appear in public. Hawkeye Clint is currently under medical observation; although he claims to have broken free of mind control, no one can say for sure if there is any incubation period.
Most importantly, those were aliens! The extermination of the Native Americans wasn't a case of "advanced civilization" crushing "backward civilization." In the later stages of the war, the Native Americans weren't fighting with baseball bats and bows and arrows, but with firearms. But what truly wiped them out were those unwashed creatures—the various deadly viruses brought from Europe by the European colonists.
If Supergiant carries some alien virus and infects Hawkeye through close contact, and he then spreads it to others, it would be a serious disaster for Earth.
It's said that those who drown are often good swimmers. The United States has the most virus laboratories in the world, so of course it has to guard against this possibility.
In the end, only Bruce Banner was left, but Dr. Banner said that he was not a good-tempered person, and his current docile and honest appearance was just an outward form of controlling his emotions. He would occasionally take a few puffs of diluted Bosian potion to calm himself down.
If he were to face a barrage of spotlights, he couldn't guarantee that Hulk wouldn't suddenly appear and cause a ruckus—as for using the driver to transform into Doc Green, that would be even more of a surprise.
Therefore, as one of the Avengers' Avengers: Infinity War, Iron Man, and the undisputed number one in Marvel Tony Stark, can only face all kinds of criticism alone.
In particular, during the hearings, politicians from all sides did not mention a single contribution of the Avengers in the Battle of New York. Instead, they accused the Avengers of being the reason the city was destroyed in its current state.
Then a member of parliament produced a population casualty survey and shifted the blame for those killed by Leviathan onto the Avengers.
If Tony Stark were only representing himself, he could easily cause a scene at the hearing—but now he is Iron Man, representing the entire Avengers, and can only deal with various inquiries through legal channels.
If his heart weren't artificial and were his original one, Tony Stark estimates he'd have a heart attack from the irrationality and incompetence of politicians.
However, a significant number of people agree with the politicians' statements—after all, under the influence of "happy education," there's no need to expect them to have high IQs.
These politicians are all supported by others. Political parties would not allow the Avengers, a superhero group that is more of a private entity, to exist. It's just that they have strong backing, with Tony Stark on the capitalist side, "Saint" Captain America Steve Rogers, and the alien heir Thor.
These three are not easily touched; the Avengers are temporarily unbreakable, so the only option is to exert pressure and cause trouble from the shadows.
Of course, this is only temporary; even the most unbreakable alliances eventually disintegrate.
Politicians have their methods.
After finishing his day's work, Tony Stark returned home, changed out of his suit into comfortable home clothes, and then plunged into the basement to begin perfecting the system called "Ultron."
This is the only time he has free time each day. The various people and things during the day do not bother his mind. When he is programming, his ten fingers fly up and down the keyboard, leaving only afterimages. This is in stark contrast to a writer who sits in front of the computer at eight o'clock and can't even type five hundred words by lunchtime.
Of course, there are other reasons as well.
Although the knowledge Loki explained to him in order to solve the problem of the Space Stone was not ultimately used, it has now given him a lot of inspiration in a broader sense, and the improvement of Ultron is precisely based on the ideas he gained from it.
After a flurry of activity, Ultron's model was more than half designed. In the projection system, Ultron, still in its early stages, was already a complex structure. Although not perfect, it was enough to astound 99% of computer and artificial intelligence experts.
