Tony Asked Chen for Help, and the Illuminati Assembled for the First Time
The Vought Tower.
Tony Stark burst through the air, making a rather eye-catching entrance.
The employees inside the building also rushed out, their faces beaming with excitement, frantically taking photos and recording videos.
A very few fans even went right up to Stark, wanting his autograph and a photo.
This superhero is surrounded by an aura of glamour: a billionaire, a Super Genius, a playboy...
With a string of titles and honors, his fame in the world today is truly top-tier.
However, what no one knew was why he had come to Sokovia and appeared at the Vought Group!
Could it be...?
The financial backer of the Vought Group is Tony Stark?!
However.
Tony Stark was also secretly surprised.
List...
How did this eccentric Mystic Arts Mage, the Acting Sorcerer Supreme of Kamar-Taj, end up in this place?
Even the Energy Ring project seems to have been suspended...
Stark glanced around and immediately spotted the beautiful Black Widow in the crowd. They exchanged a glance but did not reveal her identity.
Tony's intuition was frantically telling him that there was an astonishing secret within the Vought Group!
Perhaps only this [Elite Undercover Agent] can uncover the truth.
Otherwise, he really wouldn't have known that Chen Ji was with the Vought Group!
The rise of the Vought Group was considered a miracle. No one knew its founder, nor did they know where the raw materials for 'Jotun Spring' came from.
All of this remains to be deciphered.
"Anti-Magic Armor?"
"Your naming skills are really terrible."
"Tony."
"You came to see me not just to show off your Iron Man Armor, did you?"
"Feel free to speak your mind."
Chen Ji smiled.
Exactly.
He is planning to convene the Illuminati to discuss the feasibility of the plan to kill the Celestials in a dream!
If this plan succeeds...
In that case, the real world would not be affected in the slightest, and even the remains of the Cosmic Celestial could become his spoils of war, allowing him to develop all sorts of Celestial Technology!
The Celestials themselves are a vast and almost Infinity resource.
In the Knowhere of deep space, the head of an Ancient Celestial was used as a headquarters by the Collector, and the resources produced within it earned him a vast fortune!
For centuries, the resources of the Knowhere have nourished various civilizations!
The value of a Celestials's head has reached this level.
That entire corpse of Celestials being must be even more extraordinary!
"I came here to inquire about the financial backer of the Vought Group."
"Could it be you?"
"List."
"You've really stirred up quite a storm."
"Jotun Spring has been pulled from shelves worldwide, and you're still producing and selling it?"
Tony's eyes were wise.
He seemed to see right through Chen Ji's plan.
Intelligent people always ask questions with the answers already in mind.
Moreover, he is smarter than the average smart person; he is [Cursed by Knowledge]!
They are mortals, yet beings comparable to gods!
"I'm not a sugar daddy."
"I'm just an advisor."
"Tony ..."
Have you heard of the Joker?
Chen Ji's eyes darted around.
This second identity came in handy once again!
As long as he stubbornly refuses to admit it, no one can do anything about it!
"Joker?"
Tony frowned.
What kind of demons and monsters are these?
Joker?
Is he standing guard inside McDonald's?
"The Joker, also a mysterious mage, entrusted me with the responsibility of overseeing the Vought Group."
He is a businessman.
"The ability to sell magic in the form of Rune to other living beings."
"My skills come from him."
"Certainly."
"He would often charge the buyer a certain amount of their lifespan."
Chen Ji shrugged.
He fabricated a lie so perfectly that it seemed flawless.
This momentarily intimidated Tony Stark and Natasha.
Their eyes flickered.
He had already started planning in his mind that he had to find out the Joker's true identity as soon as possible!
If he is on Earth, he must be apprehended immediately!
Could something that can steal another person's lifespan be a good thing?
Key...
How did Chen Ji and Joker end up together, and even seem to have a good relationship?
A strange light flashed in Tony's eyes.
But he had absolutely no clue.
His main purpose in coming to the Vought Group was not only to investigate the truth, but also, and most importantly, he needed a large amount of Dragon-Scale Metal!
Only with these all-natural magical materials can his Earth Armor Project be realized! And thus, a God-Slayer Armor can be developed!
"List."
"I need Dragon-Scale Metal."
"The more the better."
Tony smiled.
The advent of the Mark 42 Prodigal Son Armor boosted his confidence to the max. This armor was virtually indestructible, and its combat endurance was greatly improved!
Because Dragon-Scale Metal itself possesses magical properties!
Furthermore, the Arc Reactor and Dragon-Scale Metal can interact to further unleash magical power!
He has gradually shifted his research focus, no longer relying solely on modern technology; he is attempting to acquire more magical knowledge!
"Dragon-Scale Metal?"
No rush.
"I also discovered another material, from Jotunheim, the legendary land of the Frost Giants, called Frost Crystal Ore."
"This is also a magical substance."
Chen Ji waved his hand.
It then summoned a sample of Frost Crystal Ore.
This crystal, resembling Crystal, exudes an intense chill, causing its temperature to plummet, enough to freeze a human body.
Tony glanced at it and immediately shook his head.
"This material is not suitable for me."
"Unlike you, I can't withstand extreme cold."
"Dragon-Scale Metal is still the safest option."
Tony's eyes flickered.
In reality...
He has discovered the Mystery of Dragon-Scale Metal, a material with biological properties from which DNA samples can be extracted.
Through DNA samples, he also conceived an even more radical and ingenious idea: to create a biological armor that would integrate into his own bloodstream, freeing him from cumbersome metal materials!
Certainly.
There's no need to report this to Chen Ji.
Who doesn't have their own secret weapon or little-known trick?
"All right."
"But before we discuss Dragon-Scale Metal, there's something I need to tell you."
"This matter concerns the establishment of the Illuminati, and should be kept secret."
"Let's discuss this within the Mirror Dimension."
Chen Ji raised his hand and waved it.
Moment.
Countless prism-like fragments of matter emerged and swept across the sky.
Tony Stark was also drawn into the Mirror Dimension!
Standing in the Mirror Dimension and looking at the real world, one sees everyone's shocked gazes as they search around.
They were right in front of him, yet it was as if they had vanished into thin air!
"Mirror Dimension?"
"That's an interesting ability."
How much is the tuition?
Tony's heart skipped a beat.
"Tony."
"Magic requires magic power, and you have no magic power."
"This is not an ability that just anyone can use."
"Now... let the members of the Illuminati begin their first gathering."
Chen Ji smiled.
Immediately, Mystic Portal appeared out of thin air.
Each leads to the X Academy the Rising Sun, Kamar-Taj...
And New Mexico.
He had racked his brains to persuade the leaders of various forces to become members of the Illuminati, and now his efforts were finally paying off!
Professor X, with his gleaming bald head and impeccably tailored suit, sat upright in his wheelchair, propelled by Beast Hank, and instantly crossed the Mystic Portal.
"So you are... Beast Hank?"
Tony's gaze narrowed.
Looking at this hairy monster dressed in a white lab coat and wearing black-rimmed glasses, I recognized it at a glance.
"Mr. Stark."
"It's an honor that you know my name."
"I have always been fascinated by your Miniature Arc Reactor technology."
"And recently, I also discovered a new type of element, which I named the Infinity Element."
"Using this element, I also designed the Arc Reactor, which is unique to the X Academy Thought."
Beast Hank pushed up his glasses and a smile appeared on his face.
This made Tony Stark frown.
"A new element, so easy to discover?"
"You also developed Miniature Arc Reactor? Shouldn't you pay me patent fees?"
Tony felt threatened.
It turns out he's not the only smart person on Earth!
"List."
"Haven't seen you for a long time."
"I've also tried the Jotun Spring from the Vought Group, and it tastes really good."
Professor X looked on with admiration.
There was both admiration and concern.
'Jotun Spring' can guide the latent X-Factor and awaken it ahead of time!
With his unique [super brain], he can now sense that large numbers of Mutant are appearing all over the world every moment.
Certainly.
The total number of Mutant is still negligible compared to that of ordinary humans.
"Yeah?"
"But this isn't my doing."
"I'm just an advisor to the Vought Group."
Chen Ji emphasized this again.
"All right."
"Sir, are you gathering members of the Illuminati?"
"Why hasn't the Sorcerer Supreme of the other door appeared yet?"
Professor X felt helpless.
However, Chen Ji was not exposed.
Because he and Chen Ji had a deep friendship and belonged to the same camp, there was no need to expose this fact.
Just as he knew about the existence of HYDRA all along, he did not report any member of HYDRA.
The current Secretary-General of the Security Council is the biggest Hydra!
Who would believe this if I told them?
They would be even more suspicious of his intentions!
After all, he is one of the leaders of the Mutant!
The Mutant's accusation against Hydra is clearly a conspiracy to start a war!
The Secretary-General of the Security Council will also do whatever it takes to destroy X Academy!
He can leave, but the teachers and students in the academy will have no home.
And Magneto...
To this day, neither he has been seen alive nor his body found, and he has always secretly longed to see Magneto.
From both a moral and logical standpoint.
He certainly couldn't afford to offend Chen Ji, and he needed to cling to this powerful figure even more!
"Feel sorry."
"The Sorcerer Supreme has relinquished his seat in the Illuminati to me."
"Let me introduce myself."
"I am Stephen Strange, a neurosurgeon in Philadelphia, and now a master of Kamar-Taj Mystic Arts Master."
A refined and aloof voice rang out.
A gaunt figure with a horse-like face and wearing Cloak of Levitation stepped into the Mirror Dimension.
His gaze was sharp, with a scrutinizing quality, as he looked at the crowd without showing any stage fright.
"Doctor?"
"How come you have a Cloak just like Chen? Is that standard equipment for Mystic Arts Mage?"
Tony asked in surprise.
"No."
"This is the Cloak of Levitation, a magical artifact."
"I hope you won't laugh at it, or it will get angry."
Stephen patted the Cloak, signaling the Cloak of Levitation to be quiet.
When Chen Ji proposed his duel with Wanda, in order to ensure Strange's victory, the Ancient One also used her power to take him to the storage room of the New York Sanctum.
And the Cloak of Levitation, as always, chose him!
Be your own master!
This Cloak of Levitation is different in color and style from Chen Ji's Cloak of Levitation because they come from different universes.
Seeing this scene.
Chen Ji chuckled inwardly.
With just a Cloak of Levitation, you think you can defeat the Scarlet Witch?
This is truly a difficult situation for the Cloak of Levitation.
The power of Chaos Magic is enough to destroy the Cloak of Levitation!
Moreover, Wanda was engrossed in studying his own creation, the "Spell Compendium."
The term itself is a curse!
In the book.
He recorded almost every entry he saw!
Once Wanda's magical powers are fully developed, seizing the position of Sorcerer Supreme will be a piece of cake.
This Doctor Strange's wish to become Dark Supreme Strange and reverse Absolute Time Point is likely to be dashed.
"Um?"
"There's another door?"
Who is behind this door?
Stephen asked, puzzled.
Before he could finish speaking...
A burly, uncouth man, completely drunk and exuding a rough, unrefined air, walked into the portal carrying a hammer.
"Hey!"
"List!"
"Would you like to try some of my homemade mead?"
Thor, the Hammer Thor, adapted to local customs and changed into casual clothes. His eyes, still blurry with drunkenness, gradually regained some of their senses upon seeing the heavyweight lineup.
It seems...
A major event is about to occur!
