It turned out to be a virtual game helmet from Sword Art Online.

Shen He remembered how envious he had been of equipment like this when he watched the anime before—something that let players enter a virtual world and enjoy games to their heart's content. He never expected that after transmigrating, he would actually get his hands on one.

Wait—!

This was a virtual game helmet!

Shen He shot to his feet.

I knew I couldn't possibly be that unlucky! This is cutting-edge technology that doesn't even exist in the Marvel Universe!

Shen He did not immediately take it out of his inventory. Instead, he took a deep breath to calm himself, then pulled out his phone and made a call.

"Tony, where are you?"

"I'm at a party. Hey, ladies, quiet down for a moment. Turn the music down." The noisy sounds on Tony's end quickly subsided. "He, what's up?"

"Of course. You'd better come over here right now. I've got a project that'll make us a fortune." Shen He was suddenly glad that he had met Tony first.

Something like virtual gaming could change the entire world if handled poorly. Without a powerful partner, it would probably be devoured by those financial conglomerates the moment he brought it out. And all the business scheming that followed was not something Shen He could handle. He hated that kind of trouble, too.

"God, are you serious?" Tony suddenly laughed. "I thought you were going to say something important. Buddy, forget your project. Bring your Chaldea and join Stark Industries. I guarantee you'll never be short of money for the rest of your lives."

"Cut the crap and get over here." Shen He's face darkened.

That guy's mouth was still as foul as ever. Even several brushes with death had done nothing to rein him in.

Still, ever since the battle at the villa, Shen He and Tony had become quite close. For Shen He, who had originally not intended to deliberately involve himself in the plot just to raise favorability, all he could say was that it was fate.

Tony was highly efficient. Just half an hour later, a flashy Lamborghini sports car pulled up outside the hotel.

"T-T-Tony!?"

The receptionist began stammering the moment she saw Tony.

He was a world-famous celebrity. Everyone in America knew him. Why would he come here?

"Hey, where's your new boss? He told me to come over."

Tony took off his sunglasses and greeted her. Even with the bruise on his forehead not yet faded, he still looked as dashing as ever.

"H-He's on the twenty-third floor." The receptionist gathered her courage and asked, "Does our boss know you?"

"Of course. And I don't dislike shy Chinese girls. Has anyone ever told you that you're adorable?"

After thoroughly charming the young receptionist, Tony left behind a suave silhouette. Even the waitresses could not help letting out quiet squeals.

But they finally realized that their new boss was far from ordinary. He had actually managed to summon Tony here, and they even began gossiping about the relationship between the two.

In the living room, Shen He was fiddling with the virtual helmet he had taken out of his inventory.

The accompanying metal box looked like something similar to a computer tower.

"Tony's here."
