Ling Yi stayed in Asgard for a full two weeks.

Once you've tasted the marrow, you'll crave more and more; everyone understands that.

Even Ling Yi himself felt that he had truly fallen into depravity.

Standing on the Bifrost in Asgard, Ling Yi sighed deeply. Love had come too fast, like Twister?

Is this love? I guess so. Anyway, he's never been in a relationship. At least, with his memories sealed, he definitely doesn't have any memories of being in love.

At that moment, a flash of colorful light appeared, and Loki and Xuanyuan Qingming appeared on the Bifrost.

Seeing Xuanyuan Qingming's level 42, Ling Yi finally realized that he should probably get down to business.

"Hmph!" Xuanyuan Qingming snorted coldly as he passed Ling Yi.

Ling Yi detected a hint of coquettishness in his voice.

That evening, Ling Yi called Hela and Xuanyuan Qingming together and shared his thoughts.

"It's time to move the plot of this world forward."

"What do I need to do?" Xuanyuan Qingming asked.

"You should stay in Asgard and level up. When you reach level 50, Heimdall can send you to Earth." After saying that, Ling Yi looked at Hela.

"You go ahead with your work, I'll continue the trials with you as my attendant," Hela said, waving her hand.

"I am not his servant. I've said it so many times. Even Odin, the God King, explained that it was just a joke," Xuanyuan Qingming said angrily. If she could beat Hela and Ling Yi, she would have given them a good beating.

"Then you'd better work hard."

After saying that, Ling Yi laughed and pulled out Gate of Space, stepping into Earth in the Marvel Universe.

As the saying goes, good news makes people feel refreshed, and Ling Yi's overall demeanor also changed considerably.

A few hours later...

When Ling Yi appeared at Tony Stark's seaside villa, his identity information was quickly seized by several powerful forces.

Tony had just woken up. He had gone wild all night and had gone a little too far. The effects of the alcohol were kicking in, making him feel nauseous and dry heaving in the bathroom for a long time.

"Sir, a Chosen One has appeared at the villa's entrance and appears to be attempting to enter."

"Water, what a terrible day, JARVIS. Which issue was that blonde beauty from yesterday in?"

"It's the eleventh issue, but sir, she has black hair, you're mistaken."

"That's not important. It just means there's one more issue, and this year's twelfth issue will be a perfect ending. Sure enough, I'm the best. This news will definitely make those newspapers a fortune."

"Sir, just so you know, that Chosen One is kicking down the door."

"What Chosen One? Did you just say 'Chosen One'? Oh right, you said there was Chosen One at the door and trying to come in."

Yes, he's kicking the door.

Tony Stark was completely bewildered. He knew about the Chosen One, but what was with Chosen One coming over and kicking down his front door?

"Could it be that my name, Tony Stark, is so well-known among the Chosen One?"

A voice rang out from the living room doorway, "Young Master Hua, spendthrift, warmonger, blood-stained arms dealer."

"I don't acknowledge any of the others except the first one." Tony looked towards the living room door and saw a handsome young man strutting in with an arrogant air.

" JARVIS, his walk is so arrogant. I'll write it down so I can walk like that next time I run into Justin Hammer."

"How did you get in?" Tony asked, toning down his usual flippant manner.

"Like this!"

Ling Yi casually pulled a door, and it appeared out of thin air. Ling Yi stepped inside, and at the same time, a semi-transparent door of light appeared at the other end of the living room. The door opened, and Ling Yi walked out.

Back in Asgard, Ling Yi felt that the aperture Teleport Gate wasn't discreet enough and didn't suit his style, so after some research, he directly changed it into a real " Space Portal."

"Wow, that's amazing magic, JARVIS, expose him for it."

"Sorry, I didn't detect anything unusual."

Ling Yi opened another door out of thin air. The scenery behind the door seemed to be a desert, and the scorching air flowed in through the door, which piqued Tony's interest and curiosity.

Ling Yi stepped inside, but this time the door remained open.

"Warm-mongers, do you have the guts to come and see for yourselves?"

Without a second thought, Tony grabbed a wristwatch from the table and followed them.

Looking at the endless desert and feeling the scorching heat, Tony, dressed in his pajamas, was soon covered in sweat.

JARVIS.

"Sir, this is incredible. Your current location is in the Middle East Desert, coordinates..."

JARVIS's voice came through the wristwatch.

" Chosen One, are you trying to kidnap me?" Tony asked, wiping the sweat from his face.

"If you get kidnapped, just say 'Open Sesame,' and I can come and rescue you."

Ling Yi opened two Teleport Gate, stepped into one of them, and disappeared.

Tony looked at the remaining Daoist School, a million questions swirling in his mind.

He wiped the sweat from his face again before finally stepping into the remaining Teleport Gate and returning to his villa.

Tony had no idea what Ling Yi's purpose was in doing this; was it just to demonstrate his abilities to him?

Ling Yi made a brief appearance and then left, because he had already achieved his goal.

Game Announcement: Congratulations to the player who triggered the main storyline quest Reincarnation! The current world's storyline progress has increased, and the player is rewarded with 1000 reputation points and +10 level!

"Game Announcement..."

"Game Announcement..."

Ling Yi opened the attribute panel and found the reputation section.

He discovered that he gained reputation in every game world he entered.

World Reputation #21871 ( Chronicle World ): 3000 (Click to enter the Reputation Shop);

World Reputation #33219 ( Superman Prequel World ): 8000 (Click to enter the Reputation Shop);

World Reputation #29537 ( The Smiling, Proud Wanderer World ): 120000 (Click to enter the Reputation Shop);

World Reputation #91557 ( Marvel Universe ): 60000.

The Reputation Shop allows you to exchange reputation points for various items from different worlds, including bloodlines, equipment, knowledge, skills, and various treasures.

But the price is quite "pleasing".

The Mark I Iron Man Armor costs 5000 current world reputation, and the Mark 3 Iron Man Armor costs 7000 current world reputation...

The Power Stone Infinity Stones costs 10 million current world reputation; the Space Stone costs 10 million current world reputation...

Ling Yi frowned and closed the panel. There were many good items in the Reputation Shop, and their value was definitely beyond imagination.

Although the Teleport beams have been around for ten years, no one has ever mentioned anything about reputation.

Either none of the players know how to gain reputation, or someone is deliberately blocking information about reputation.

Ling Yi trusted the former more.

To gain reputation, besides triggering story quests, you can also directly conquer a world with overwhelming power.

For example, in the Smiling, Proud Wanderer World, Ling Yi can simply crush his way through and gain a lot of reputation.

The same applies to the Marvel Universe. Ling Yi first defeated Dormammu and then helped Asgard, so it's normal for Ling Yi to gain considerable prestige.

"So, does that mean I need to cause trouble in the game world, and big trouble at that?"

What is reputation? Simply put, it's fame.

Ling Yi, who had originally planned to follow the plot step by step, immediately decided that it would be better for him to set the pace.

Three days later, Tony Stark disappeared in Middle East.

Upon waking up in the cave, the first thing Tony did was shout, "Open Sesame!"

Then, a Space Portal appeared, and Ling Yi strode out with an arrogant air.

"Oh ho, the bloodthirsty warmonger finally got his just deserts, blown up by the very weapon his own company manufactured."

As Ling Yi spoke, he pointed to the battery Tony was holding and mocked, "Our weapons manufacturers have become battery men now?"

Tony's initial good mood vanished the moment he saw Ling Yi. His face darkened as he said, "Kid, I'm warning you, standing before you is the world's smartest genius, the object of every woman's fantasy, and the world's richest man."

"Didn't you become a battery man after all?" Ling Yi laughed, then turned and stepped into the Teleport Gate. Tony, pulling Yinsen along, followed closely behind. As the Teleport Gate closed, the group disappeared into the cave.

Looking at his familiar home, Tony cheered. He had escaped death and survived a terrible ordeal. You can imagine how he felt at that moment. If only that wretched doorman had disappeared.

"Did you already know I would be kidnapped?" Tony asked after calming down.

"Know."

"Then why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

"There's no reason, I just want to see you turn into a battery man, and then I'll laugh at you."

"Fa Ke, I'm talking to you very seriously."

" Obadiah Stane," Ling Yi said, uttering a name.

"Why..." Tony had barely uttered those words when he saw Ling Yi looking at him with Taunt gaze, the undisguised contempt practically screaming "You're an idiot."

"OK, he wants Stark Industries, I understand, but I need evidence now."

Ling Yi Ling Yi in mid-air, opening a small Teleport Gate, and then pulled out a Computer from inside.

Tony could see it clearly: behind the small Teleport Gate was Obadiah Sta's office, and Tony could even hear his good uncle's angry Roar.

The Computer was still on. Tony quickly glanced through it and immediately said, " JARVIS, contact Rhodey and send him the data on this Computer."

"Yes, sir."

Listening to JARVIS's voice, Ling Yi felt a little envious; having a smart butler was just too convenient.

When I build my own manor base in my little world, I'll definitely get a smart butler.

Ling Yi slapped his forehead. It seemed his actions had ruined the Iron Monger vs. Iron Man storyline?

Should I exchange my money for a Mark I for Tony, so he can get back on track and become Iron Man again?

With that in mind, Ling Yi opened the Reputation Shop and spent 5,000 Reputation Points to exchange for the Mark I.

"Clang!" The silver-white tin can suddenly appeared, startling Tony and Yinsen.

But then, Tony rushed over with his eyes Light Emission.

"Wow, this technology is so crude it makes me want to curse. My God, is this purely handmade? It's utterly shoddy. Oh, this is Arc Reactor technology. I can't believe someone has already thought of this method."

"However, this RPM is too low. It should be increased to 7500 RPM, which would increase the energy output by more than ten times."

Ling Yi curled his lip. This thing was originally handcrafted by Tony. Was he insulting himself? He really didn't know how to make a sarcastic remark.
