I'm the Demon King in Marvel

Chapter 363: Actions of the “Centrists” and “Civilians”
The spectacular sight of a high-altitude nuclear explosion, although the sound could not be transmitted, still attracted the attention of Americans in the blockade zone.

Tony Stark and Carol Danvers, who can fly, even flew into the sky and stood shoulder to shoulder with the nuclear bomb.

This time it was not a missile before it exploded, but a real mushroom cloud.

"You know what, it's pretty beautiful to watch a nuclear bomb explosion up close." Tony from 2023 tried to find the joy in the midst of adversity.

"People outside will give up hope immediately when they see that the nuclear bomb can't explode." Tony from this universe gave him a sidelong glance.

"Didn't you notice?" Carol, who was floating beside the two of them and glowing, said in a deep voice: "Sunlight can come in, but nuclear radiation can't."

"Sunlight is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while nuclear radiation is the flow of particles released after the fission or decay of radioactive substances. There is a difference between the two," the two scientists said almost in unison.

Carol's face, which was already dark, became even darker. He glared at the two of them and said, "The knowledge reserves in my head are no less than yours."

"Then why are you asking?" Tony in this universe didn't know much about Carol, and had never had a clear impression of her fighting ability, unlike Tony in the main universe who praised her.

"You mean if we have a way to create electromagnetic radiation similar to sunlight, we can penetrate this membrane?" Tony from 2023 gave Carol face.

"Haha." Tony from this universe sneered: "What? Are you still planning to turn into light?"

"I have no idea how to turn into light, but if I shrink to a particle state and enter the microscopic universe..." Tony from 2023 had an idea.

He may not be able to penetrate this membrane, but he can return to the main universe through the quantum field!

The "time-space machine" can break the barriers between different universes and enter the microscopic quantum field at any point in space. The membrane currently covering America theoretically has no restrictions on the machine he invented.

Unfortunately, Tony didn't know that the real reason for the failure of the "time machine" was that the entire "base universe" had been blocked.

The "centrists" are still staying in New York, specifically at the Stark Tower. Carol's spaceship is floating in the air as a means of transportation to provide support to various places at any time.

Steve from 2023 leads the injured Phil Coulson and his team to run around, and with the assistance of Commissioner George Stacy of the New York Police Department, they barely maintain order in New York City.

As for other places, we are really powerless.

Tony came up with a solution and made his idea and the theory of "time machine" public as soon as he returned to the ground.

"Most of the raw materials for making these things are not rare. They are already in Stark Industries' warehouse. The only thing is that the most critical raw material, 'Pym particles', only has two shuttle runs left."

Tony in this universe didn't bother to emphasize the ownership of the raw materials. He also wanted to get out of the predicament immediately and reconnect with his girlfriend in Hawaii.

It is now the third day after the blockade. The S.H.I.E. and the Jewish Israel have used multiple nuclear bombs one after another. Such a big commotion could not fail to alarm Pepper Potts who is in Hawaii.

After she learned that the U.S. mainland was blocked, she could not help but send Iron Man to check the situation. However, Tony in this universe had Jarvis watching the sky over New York for the past two days, but he failed to find the figure of Iron Man...

This only means that not only the mainland, but also Hawaii has been blocked!
So Tony must do everything he can to break through this membrane.

"Pym particles?" Tony from this universe immediately asked, "Dr. Hank Pym's invention?"

"That's right." Tony from 2023 nodded.

"Where can I find this particle?" Tony from this universe asked anxiously.

But the other self shook his head helplessly and sighed, "I asked Friday to check the airline's travel records. Hank Pym, who was originally in San Francisco, flew to Hawaii with his daughter three months ago. Now..."

"I also went to his house and Hank Industries to look for it, but I couldn't find any extra Pym particles."

"Shit!" Tony in this universe was so angry that he smashed a cup.

The Marvel Universe has a very interesting rule: the copyright rule.

All scientists who appear in comics have exclusive copyrights for their representative inventions. Without authorization, superheroes cannot infringe and copy them even when facing life-and-death crises.

Anyone who copies other people's inventions without authorization is basically a villain.

This is easy to understand. After all, superheroes can violate public order regulations, and anti-heroes can even kill people and then clean up their act, but they cannot shake the rights protection rules set by capitalists for themselves. Otherwise, Marvel itself would not have the confidence to crack down on pirated comics.

The most bizarre plot caused by this unwritten rule is that even people with high IQs like Tony Stark or Reed Richards cannot copy other people's inventions without obtaining patent authorization.

In order to be legitimate, Marvel editors had to publicly state that these highly proprietary technological inventions have very high technical barriers and are difficult for others to replicate without obtaining the original data.

This meant that when Tony Stark was making the "time machine", he could only use the stock left by Hank Pym before he was wiped out by Thanos, instead of replicating Pym particles himself.

Otherwise, there would be no plot in "Avengers 4" to travel back to 1970 again, because it is hard to imagine that in a major operation involving half of the life in the universe, there would be no more driving energy prepared.

This also leaves Tony at a loss now.

"Don't we have two more chances to travel through time?" Carol immediately reminded them: "We can first travel to Hawaii and find Hank Pym and ask him to provide more Pym particles, or bring him back to make them separately."

"I thought so too." Tony from 2023 nodded and said, "The final problem now is to find the reason why the 'shuttle' failed. If we don't solve this problem, everything else will be a luxury."

"This..." Carol shook her head, indicating that she was powerless.

"It's a pity that the Cosmic Cube in your universe has been taken over by S.W.O.R.D., otherwise we could try the power of this space gem..." Tony from 2023 said with some regret, but he didn't forget his real mission.

"Don't even think about it. It will definitely fall into the hands of the S.H.I.E." Carol said bitterly.

She had seen the public video that Lin Hao sent to Thanos on the "Star Network" before, and had seen the five stones of different colors.

There is no way they can get the Infinity Stones of this universe, but fortunately, the incident of Thanos slaughtering half of all life will never happen again in this universe.

But why is America the only one suffering?

Carol still hasn't figured it out yet. She has also doubted Lin Hao, who has great strength, but she can't understand why he would waste time messing with America.

With their strength, they can dominate the earth and act tyrannically. If they really have a problem with America, wouldn't it be better to just attack it directly?

Is it necessary to go through so much trouble?
While the "centrists" were trying to find a way to escape from the cage, the real captain of the "civilian faction" took his team members to rob a transport plane and quickly returned to Texas in the south.

After losing contact with the "Hell Base", Captain Zhen lost the backbone members he had trained over the past two or three years and had to return to the starting point of everything, which is also the "red zone" with the best mass base - the "redneck" community in Texas.

When Houston was bombed, the people of Texas "revolted" and were brutally suppressed by the federal authorities. Only a small number of people were taken to the hell base by the real captain, and most of them hid in various places in Texas under different names.

These people were the main force used by the real captain to carry out the "Second Texas Uprising".

Over the past two or three years, Captain Zhen has not severed his ties with these people. The residents who have been absorbed into the Hell Base would return to their homeland from time to time and secretly reunite with their former relatives and friends, and naturally, they would have intersections.

Captain Shin did not conceal the existence of the Hell Base from potential comrades. Even if the intelligence was leaked, the federal authorities would not be able to find the base in Hell.

Can the FBI, which can only give warnings, really go to hell to arrest people?
"Johnny, let's split up and contact the people." Captain Zhen said solemnly: "Now that riots are everywhere and supplies are tight, we must organize a team to restore order as soon as possible."

"it is good."

After receiving the order, Johnny Blaze drove his flaming mount alone across the Texas wilderness, heading to one "criminal settlement" after another.

These survivors who had participated in the "First Texas Uprising" had been labeled as "guilty thugs" by the authorities and could only hide in the wilderness and remote towns.

Now that America is blockaded, people are in turmoil, and the government is weak, it is a good time to rekindle the torch and re-establish the "Lone Star Flag."

They have no choice but to organize themselves, because once the production order is disrupted, they can't even get food.

　There is also the plot in Hawaii that man-made disasters are always a by-product of natural disasters, but they take time to ferment.

　　These two chapters are meant to describe the reactions in other aspects. Otherwise, the timeline of Hawaii will be lengthened and the other parts will feel disconnected. This chapter has laid the foreshadowing for the connection.
