Just then, in the future, while Tony and Nick Fury were still arguing over the ownership of the Infinity Stones, a fleshy ball slammed between them.
"Wuwuwu…"
Carol cried out to Nick Fury for help, terrified.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts as they looked at Carol's miserable state.
"Oh my god… Ugh!"
Holland Spider had already run to a corner and was throwing up.
"I told you you'd regret it."
Future Tony's face wasn't much better.
"..."
Nick Fury said nothing, a flash of fear and dread in his eyes.
He had considered many possibilities.
But none of them included Carol being defeated in a few seconds.
In his mind, Carol was stronger than the Avengers combined, a symbol of invincibility.
Bang!
Another figure fell, it was Thor.
He held Carol's severed limbs in his hand, came to her side, and reattached them one by one.
"Thor, what happened?"
Future Captain America asked.
"The Demon King is sleeping; it was done by a woman next to him. In an instant, she cut off her limbs and tongue."
Thor shook his head after reattaching them.
Future Tony and Future Captain America exchanged glances, shaking their heads simultaneously.
The Demon King had too many women.
Which one was he talking about?
"Oh, right, she also told me to tell you that about 200,000 Skrulls have appeared on this Earth, and she said you could ask Black Nick Fury."
"200,000!"
Everyone exclaimed in disbelief, looking at Nick Fury.
"You brought those aliens in!"
Future Captain America angrily grabbed Nick Fury's collar, his eyes seemingly spitting fire.
200,000 Skrulls, this number seemed small, but if they infiltrated the high levels of various countries, they could silently control the entire World.
Nick Fury was also somewhat incredulous.
"I only took in a portion, and Carol has also been helping them in the Universe to find a new home. 200,000 might be him lying to us."
"Heh! A portion? If I'm not mistaken, you used their abilities to steal secrets from other countries."
Future Tony said mockingly.
The ability to copy memories and appearances, what a perfect spy.
Nick Fury broke free from Future Captain America's restraint.
"I will handle the Skrulls' problem."
"How will you handle 200,000? Who knows how many Super Skrulls there are among them!"
Future Tony's voice rose an octave, his face flushed with anger at Nick Fury's stupidity and arrogance.
"Super Skrulls?"
Nick Fury was slightly stunned.
"FK! Black Nick Fury, you didn't even know this and dared to take them in."
Future Tony felt a bit dizzy.
Pepper nervously supported him.
"You guys actually have such teammates, and you've managed to survive until now, that's impressive… I'm not really qualified to talk about you, though."
Rocket Raccoon shook his head, then looked at his own team of gaming trees, napping, love-struck, and sycophantic members.
"Cheer up, at least they didn't bring the Skrulls home," Tony said.
"Aren't you worried about the Skrulls? In the parallel Universe, your World also has them."
Rocket Raccoon asked curiously.
"We have Richard."
Nick Fury also learned about the existence of Super Skrulls from others.
"It's okay, Carol will persuade them to leave."
Though he said that, Nick Fury knew the hope was slim.
200,000 Skrulls, five years' time.
Plus an unknown number of Super Skrulls.
They were already deeply entrenched, and making them leave would inevitably come at a painful cost.
Carol's body began to recover. She slowly climbed up, her eyes filled with resentment, fear, and anger.
Ever since gaining this power, she had never suffered such humiliation, which filled her heart with unwillingness and a desire for revenge.
"FK, that bi…"
Bang!
Carol's head suddenly exploded, blood splattering on the spot.
Her body swayed, then fell straight to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
The scene instantly fell silent. Everyone looked at this with indifference, some even feeling a sense of satisfaction.
Only Holland Spider covered his mouth again and ran to a corner, dry heaving.
After learning that the alien invasion was directly related to Carol and Nick Fury, they were already equated with traitors in everyone's minds.
"Now, who else can you persuade to leave?"
Future Tony asked coldly, his eyes full of mockery.
"..."
Nick Fury remained silent.
— — —
Richard slowly opened his eyes.
He felt a small hand stroking his head.
"Did I wake you up?"
Pamela's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, with a hint of concern.
"No, that was a very comfortable sleep. And Venom, how long are you going to keep touching?"
Richard sat up, his voice carrying a hint of indulgence.
"Stingy, I didn't say anything when you touched me."
Venom pouted, continuing to knead his bald head.
"I'll let you touch me when we get home. Right now, I have some serious business to do."
"Alright."
Venom didn't withdraw his hand, transforming back into a symbiote and returning to Richard's body.
"You guys go home first, I'll be back later."
Richard opened the portal to the main Universe.
"Okay."
Pamela walked in.
"Red Robin, wait for me."
Harley rushed over from not far away, like a cheerful fawn.
As she passed Richard, she casually patted his bald head and said playfully, "Richard, let me touch you when we get home too."
"Me too."
"The style is pretty cool."
"Young Master, Shadow is always at your service."
...
Everyone who passed by touched Richard's head, even Shadow was no exception.
After Richard sent everyone back, he put away the battleship.
Future Tony and the others also walked over.
"Are you planning to leave?"
"Yes, the Stones are in hand, and I've brought the people back to you. Oh, right."
Richard looked at Green Dr. and took out a contract.
"Sign this, and you can become a normal person."
"Thank you."
Banner glanced at the contract.
Trading all things Hulk for a youth potion.
There was nothing to hesitate about, he signed it directly.
Green Dr. only felt his vision begin to lower, and his body became weak.
"Hahahahaha, I'm back to normal."
"Demon King, could I ask you to snap your fingers one more time?"
Future Tony requested.
"I can, but what will you trade this time?"
"...What do you think of me?"
Future Tony awkwardly rubbed his nose.
This was something he had deeply considered.
Firstly, he was already very tired; having a family meant he would have scruples.
Moreover, the other Earth was safer, with his parents.
"You don't want this Earth anymore?"
Richard asked.
"There are still them, and after the Skrulls are dealt with, there won't be much difference whether I'm here or not."
Future Tony planned to retire.
"Welcome, welcome. Sign this contract. How much time do you need to pack your bags?"
Richard said with a smile. There was never too much talent, so he was naturally happy to accept Future Tony.
"Seven… no, five days."
"Good. To distinguish between the two of you, I'll call you Stark from now on."
"Yes, Boss."
Stark felt a wave of relief after signing the contract.
"Mr. Stark…"
Holland Spider said somewhat reluctantly, tears shimmering in his eyes.
"It's okay, I'll come back to see you when I have time. I'm leaving Stark Industries to you."
Stark patted Holland Spider.
He regarded Holland Spider as half a son.
Stark Industries couldn't be taken away, so leaving it to him was a form of inheritance.
"Really… I mean, do I need to change my name to Peter Stark?"
Holland Spider shouted in surprise.
He instantly became a billionaire.
"Uh… no need."
Stark said speechlessly.
He felt some regret. This guy wouldn't bankrupt Stark Industries, would he?
I should set up some safeguards before leaving.
(I'm not very satisfied with this section. I originally planned for Carol to directly ask Richard for the Stones and then get beaten up again.
But then, how would Carol know of Richard's existence? The only possibility is Future Tony and the others complaining, so Black Nick Fury had to appear.
But then it didn't achieve the effect I wanted.
I originally wanted to describe a fight, but I decided against it.
The power gap is too big.
Oh, by the way, could you lend me your brains to help me think of some safeguards for Tony?)
