Chapter 44: Sorcerer Supreme
Chapter 44: Sorcerer Supreme
Thor and his group immediately stopped in their tracks, not daring to move forward. Sif, one of the Warriors Three, whispered, "He's dangerous."
The others nodded in agreement, fully endorsing her statement.
As Alex landed and approached the ground, Thor spoke up, "I plan to leave now. There are matters in Asgard that need my attention."
Alex nodded and replied with a smile, "Make sure to thank Loki for me and remind him to deliver that package to Earth soon!"
Alex knew exactly what Thor would face upon his return—an invasion of Frost Giants, and his own destruction of the Bifrost to prevent Loki from annihilating Jotunheim, leaving him unable to return to Earth immediately.
This would also mean that Loki would soon fall into the cosmic abyss, meet Thanos, and receive the Mind Stone scepter, setting the stage for the Chitauri invasion of Earth—an event that Alex had been eagerly anticipating.
Though Thor didn't fully understand what Alex meant, he nodded, "I will."
After bidding farewell to Jane Foster and promising to return, Thor left with the Warriors Three in the colorful beam of the Bifrost.
Once the rainbow light of the Bifrost had completely faded, Alex turned to Jane Foster and said, "Don't forget to come to me for treatment~"
With that, he took a step forward and vanished from Jane Foster's view.
His next destination was to find Tony Stark, obtain a new Arc Reactor, and then prepare a little "gift" for the military. They had sent him a mushroom cloud; it was only fair he returned the favor with a bit of 'peace,' right?
...
Leaving New Mexico, Alex flew rapidly towards Tony Stark's seaside mansion.
With his energy level upgraded to level 4, he could now use teleportation continuously without fearing injury.
Moreover, with the Reverse Cursed Technique reaching level 2, not only had his healing speed significantly increased, but he could also continually heal brain damage caused by long periods of intense thinking, allowing him to maintain the Infinity for extended periods.
At level 3, his Infinity could now automatically distinguish threats—non-threatening objects would not be affected, while threatening ones would be repelled.
...
As evening arrived, Tony Stark's beachfront mansion was brightly lit.
The party hosted by the world's richest man, Tony Stark, was as extravagant as expected. Numerous scantily clad women showcased themselves at the party, trying to catch the host's attention.
The combination of lights, women, and alcohol filled the beachfront mansion with a thick atmosphere of testosterone. For any man, this mansion was paradise.
At the center of the party, Tony Stark was clearly drunk. He had just relieved himself in his Iron Man suit, argued with Pepper Potts, and was now using the suit's weapons to shoot at drinks thrown into the air by the invited ladies as entertainment.
Just then, a voice cut through the lively atmosphere of the party!
Colonel Rhodes, dressed in another Iron Man suit, stepped out and shouted, "I'll only say this once—everyone out!"
The party immediately fell silent, the lively atmosphere dissipating as everyone turned to look at Rhodes.
As Rhodes anticipated the guests leaving, he suddenly sensed something was wrong.
The guests' reactions were too extreme, as if they were about to die. But he wasn't going to kill them.
Suddenly, Rhodes realized their gazes weren't directed at him but at someone behind him!
His body involuntarily trembled in fear, realizing that someone terrifying was behind him!
Before Rhodes could turn around, a slender, well-defined hand landed on his shoulder.
The hand carried immense power, forcing him to his knee despite the armor, cracking the floor beneath from the sheer pressure.
Finally, he heard a voice like a demon's whisper from behind:
"Colonel Rhodes, why stop the party? You wouldn't want to make me angry, would you?"
Rhodes instantly felt his body stiffen as he slowly turned his head, only to see a white-haired, blue-eyed, handsome man smiling at him with malevolent intent in that dazzling grin!
Rhodes quickly changed his tune, "I also think the party shouldn't stop!"
The white-haired man smiled in satisfaction and walked towards Tony Stark. He called out to the partygoers, "Don't stop! Keep the music playing and keep dancing!"
The women, already intoxicated, quickly shrugged off their fear of the white-haired man and cheered loudly!
The lights continued to flash, and the cheers grew louder. Amidst the fun were blasts from Iron Man suits, blue-black holes, and black-red singularities. Of course, all of these were under Alex's control, causing no actual damage to the surroundings.
This night was undeniably one of blissful celebration!
When Alex awoke the next morning, he got dressed and stepped over the many naked bodies sprawled on the floor and bed, heading towards the mansion's living room.
Even with the Reverse Cursed Technique, handling so many eager women had left Alex feeling a bit worn out.
Entering the living room, he found Tony Stark already waiting, watching footage of the New Mexico nuclear blast and the white-haired man who had emerged unscathed.
Hearing footsteps, Tony turned and saw Alex, yawning as he entered. Stark's face was filled with astonishment!
Seeing this, Alex teased, "What's the matter? Don't look at me like that, my sexual orientation is quite normal."
But Tony had no time for jokes. Still reeling from shock, he asked the question that had been nagging him:
"Did you really survive a direct hit from a nuclear bomb and walk out unscathed?"
Looking at the footage in front of Tony, Alex grinned, "Of course, it was easy."
"Easy? How did you do it?"
"Tony, don't be so surprised. Besides me, there are many who could do it—like the Sorcerer Supreme of Kamar-Taj."
"The Sorcerer Supreme? Who's that?"
Just as Tony was about to ask more, a circle of sparks appeared in front of them. A round portal, crackling with energy, slowly formed, and from it stepped a calm-faced, bald woman...
