The area expanded twentyfold, and the manor was transformed into a small town.

A town with steel walls, turrets, and steel gates.

Within the town, apart from the enormous manor in the center, the surrounding area was completely empty; there was nothing there.

Clearly, Ling Yi needs to handle the other buildings himself.

However, Ling Yi still has a large number of Hoi-Poi Capsule, so housing isn't the problem. The key issue is that there's no one around right now.

The team interface contains two dungeon worlds: The Myth and Dragon Ball. The Myth dungeon has one run remaining, and the Dragon Ball dungeon has one run remaining.

However, Ling Yi didn't want to enter those two instance worlds anymore; he needed to develop new ones.

Ling Yi took a shovel and walked to a sand wall.

According to information discovered by players, the higher the level of the shovel, the higher the chance of digging up a high-level dungeon.

But now no player upgrades the shovel.

Everyone understands that lower-level dungeons are much safer, and entering higher-level dungeons without sufficient strength is a foolish act.

Therefore, even some skilled players will not upgrade their shovels.

Another point is that once a high-level dungeon is unearthed, if it fails three times, then that dungeon will become a threat to Blue Star.

Fortunately, the way to clear dungeons is through participation rather than fighting bosses. This means that even if a high-level dungeon is occasionally discovered, players have a high chance of clearing it based on their current experience.

With a thought, Ling Yi took the Base Town into his Sea of Consciousness.

He gripped the shovel in his hand and shoveled at the sand wall.

System notification: A new dungeon entrance has been detected. Players, please prepare accordingly.

"System notification: Reaching the minimum F-rank dungeon story participation level is considered a completion of the dungeon."

System notification: Each instance world only allows three entries.

System notification: Player Ling Yi's base has been detected as a special reward base, which can be brought into the dungeon world and has the right to Plunder resources.

System notification: Countdown to dungeon entry is 9...8...7...

The scene shifts, and a desert comes into view.

Without any reference points, it's impossible to determine what kind of instanced world this is.

Ling Yi didn't use his abilities; instead, he simply chose a direction and headed away.

Based on my experience from so many dungeon runs, since he's here, there must be a story character nearby.

Sure enough, not long after, a series of intermittent rumbling sounds came from the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a silver-white, humanoid tin can fell from the sky.

"Bang!"

The tin can shattered into pieces upon hitting the sand, revealing the slightly dirty, arrogant face of Uncle with Little Mustache.

"Hey buddy, I think I need help."

"Wow, a Tony Stark fell from the sky?" Ling Yi exclaimed dramatically.

"Yes, since you know me, you should understand that opportunities to help the world's richest person are rare."

Tony Stark, Marvel Universe.

Ling Yi couldn't help but laugh. This world is quite good.

Tony struggled for a long time but couldn't get up, so he simply gave up and just stared at Ling Yi.

"Looks like today is your Luck day."

Ling Yi squatted down and quickly removed the metal can from Tony's body, then pulled Tony up.

No, today is your Luck day.

Tony dusted himself off, glanced at the Mark I at his feet, kicked it a couple of times, and then said.

"My name is Ling Yi, and I am... well, Magic Mage."

Tony gave Ling Yi a strange look.

"I think you're lying to me. Can you come up with a better reason? Magic Mage? That's a lame excuse. Tell me, which organization are you from?"

"It's not exactly a lie, though."

But you hesitated just now.

"Well, how should I put it? I have quite a few professions; Magic Mage is just one of them."

Different approaches are needed when interacting with different people.

Although Tony is a hero, he hasn't matured yet. He's still arrogant, self-righteous, and always thinks he can solve everything.

Although he harbors a strong sense of justice, he is not liked by all heroes.

To talk to this guy, you have to verbally dominate him.

"As for organizations, I think you're overthinking it. No organization is worthy of my loyalty, and certainly not the Hire you're thinking of."

Tony looked at him with disbelief. "Don't tell me your appearance here is a coincidence."

Ling Yi shrugged. "That's right, it's just a coincidence. Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant."

Tony fell silent, feeling that this kid had a foul mouth.

After a moment of eye contact, Tony asked, "Okay, you're right, that's not important. Now, how do we get back to New York City? You should have a way, right?"

Ling Yi stroked his chin and said, "I do have a way, but I don't know the way."

"Are you kidding me? You don't even bring a GPS or anything?"

Ling Yi took out a Hoi-Poi Capsule.

After pressing it, I threw it away.

"Boom!"

With a muffled thud, the next moment, to Tony's astonishment, a crudely designed, even ugly, robot appeared before the two of them.

"Service-oriented intelligent assistant R2189567 reporting for duty."

The robot bowed and spoke politely.

"Try connecting to the internet," Ling Yi asked.

"It can connect to some unauthorized networks."

"What is an unauthorized network?" Ling Yi asked, completely clueless about it.

No robot answered. Tony, standing nearby, said, "It's an illegal network."

Then his eyes lit up as he looked at the robot.

"Then let's connect and locate our position."

"Yes, sir."

Ling Yi Ling Yi has the highest authority over these robots, so their orders naturally take precedence.

"Sir, we are currently in Middle East, coordinates..."

"You don't need to tell me the coordinates, you just need to locate the New York City."

Ling Yi interrupted the robot and then threw out another Hoi-Poi Capsule.

This time it's a maglev car.

"You drive!" Ling Yi instructed the robot, then sat in the passenger seat.

Turning back to Tony, "Are you sure you're not getting in the car?"

Tony snapped out of his daze and practically ran to open the door and get into the car.

He asked impatiently, "What kind of technology is this? Pym Particles? No, Pym Particles can't do this, so it must be space miniaturization technology."

"Although this car and robot are incredibly ugly, they are truly amazing. It's unbelievable that someone has actually developed space miniaturization technology."

Ling Yi didn't understand and ignored it.

"Hey buddy, can you sell me this car and this robot? One billion, take it or leave it, how about it?"

"If you don't agree, I'll find the buyer behind you. Believe me, if I'm serious, there's no one in this world I can't find. Besides, someone with this kind of skill will eventually become..."

Ling Yi interrupted him, saying expressionlessly, "In this world, only I possess the Hoi-Poi Capsule, and only I have this technology."

Tony was dumbfounded; he didn't think Ling Yi would lie about something like this.

"This world? Are you Alien?"

"Earthlings."

"So you're talking about this world? I'm absolutely sure I heard you right, that's what you just said."

"Your IQ is a bit low; you wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you."

Tony couldn't stand to hear that; it was absolutely intolerable.

"Kid, I, Tony Stark, the smartest man in the world, a super genius, the owner of Stark Industries, the world's richest man, you say I have a low IQ? You bastard, do you even know the principle of magnetic levitation?"

"I don't understand, and I don't need to understand. You, tell him what magnetic levitation is."

Ling Yi pointed at the robot and said.

The robot faithfully carried out Ling Yi's orders.

The magnetic levitation technology in the Dragon Balls World is quite mature and has basically become commonplace.

The manufacturing cost is very low.

While the Marvel Universe also has magnetic levitation technology, it is still in its initial stages.

Therefore, the robot's theory of magnetic levitation was a treasure to Tony.

"I see. If this technology is added to my Mark Armor, it will not only save a lot of energy during flight, but also make it easier to control, and the inertia problem will be completely solved."

"What a foolish kid, revealing your skills to me Tony Stark. Now your skills are mine."

Ling Yi shrugged. "Whatever, none of this matters to me anyway."

Are you serious?

Tony was speechless. This technology was of immeasurable value, and yet the other party said it was irrelevant and didn't care?

I feel a bit low-class. Am I a fake tycoon?

Tony rubbed his hands together. "Since you don't care, why don't you tell me about this Hoi-Poi Capsule Technology too?"

Do you know how to write the word "shameless"?

Tony's face darkened.

"You, explain to him what shamelessness means." Ling Yi then pointed at the robot.

"Shamelessness refers to..."

"Stop! Okay, I know you're Big Shot. I want this technology. Name your price."

Ling Yi stroked his chin and said, "You are the smartest person in the world."

Tony nodded vigorously. "That's right, that's me."

"Although your character is terrible, you're not a terrible person; at least you're not a truly wicked one."

"You're insulting me."

"If this technology were given to someone else, they probably wouldn't be able to figure it out in a short time, and it would easily cause problems."

Tony's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously.

"You're a very selfish person. I bet once the technology gets your hands on it, you won't share it with anyone else. That way, you can ensure the technology doesn't leak out, so..."
