Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 99 How Long Did Einstein Sleep? (Fourth Update)
The farce ended, and everyone went back to work.

The reason the atmosphere was relatively relaxed before was that the incident had not yet revealed any serious harm.

The program for detecting fluctuations in the search space has been set up. If any new changes occur, Jarvis will definitely notify Tony immediately.

The reason Tony and Dr. Banner were so busy so late was mainly because they wanted to give Gwen, this visitor from another world, a medical check-up.

They wanted to see if they could find a way to locate other visitors from other worlds from her, and how to send her back to her original world.

As for the task of tracking down the 'mysterious force' that Luca and Gwen encountered, which is suspected to be related to this incident, it will mostly rely on the large number of people at S.H.I.E.L.D.

However, once Luca heard that it was going to be done through 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', he immediately lost hope that they could find out anything.

'Fine, it's better if they can't find anything. Anyway, I've already told Tony about the Extremis virus test subjects and cyborgs. Once they make some noise on their end, Hydra probably won't be paying attention to a nobody like me anymore.'

Luca's current plan is to stay with Stark for a few days, building up his goodwill while waiting for the storm to pass.

As for whether they can find anything in the end...
'With the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. all mobilized, they can't possibly be unable to handle such a small matter, can they?'

Luca had also wondered why the Ancient One seemed to have no reaction to this parallel world invasion.

But he's just a normal person and can't remember the address of the New York Sanctum from the original story.

I secretly cursed Gu a couple of times, but I didn't see a golden halo appear behind me or my head being pressed against the keyboard.

So I simply stopped worrying about it.

Fortunately, by taking advantage of his connection with Stark, Luca can also utilize his resources to try and accomplish things that were previously impossible.

Oh, right, there's one more thing.

Thor had previously said he would give Luca a gift if he could lift Thor's hammer.

Although Thor only thought that Luca couldn't possibly lift it, that's why he said that later.

But even though in the end only Harlow 'lifted' Thor's hammer, he did not deny it.

Especially after Tony's stomach pain subsided, he also tried it out. When the hammer didn't budge, Thor laughed at Tony while promising that the gifts he would receive would definitely satisfy Luca.

If he wasn't satisfied, he would secretly take Luca to his father's treasury and pick out any item.

However, he is now 'stranded' on Earth and is penniless.

Aside from his own hammer, his daily meals and drinks were all provided by S.H.I.E.L.D., so he really didn't have anything worthwhile to offer as a gift.

What Luca actually wanted to say was...

"Just give me the hammer, I won't mind."

However, he was afraid of getting beaten up, so he simply didn't say it.

After finishing all that, Luca pretended to watch Tony and Dr. Banner for a while before going to rest.

After eating and sleeping well and recovering my energy, I returned to the top-floor laboratory. It was already the morning of the next day.

Upon entering, Luca only saw Tony Stark making a phone call in the lab.

I suppose everyone else has gone to rest as well.

Tony didn't deliberately turn his back on Luca; he simply gestured for him not to come in yet, and then continued talking to the person on the other end of the video call.

"In short, I don't need your people here. Although I haven't detected any new spatial fluctuations yet, Banner is enough for me. Your intelligence won't be of much help anyway."

"Alright, let me know if you find any enemies or other visitors from another world later."

"I told you, Spider Sister is mine now. Okay, that's all."

After saying that, Stark raised his hand and made a shooting motion.

He immediately threw the virtual projection in front of him into the recycling bin.

After doing all this, he turned back to Luca and greeted him, "Hey, Father of Thor~ How did you sleep last night?"

Upon hearing this strangely added nickname, Luca's face darkened as he was about to speak.

'Good heavens, you're not scared at all, but I'm afraid Odin will come and beat me up!'

However, Harlow, who was beside him, didn't care about all that and immediately jumped up and down excitedly.

"For the glory of the God of the North! For the glory of the God of the North!"

This scene made Tony burst into laughter again.

Speechless, Luca kicked the little thing, which resulted in a series of rocket headbutts. Then, he pointed to the location of the virtual projection and asked casually.

"Was the person you just spoke to the head of S.H.I.E.L.D. that you were talking about?"

Yes, although Luca was quite far away and not in the frame, he still saw Nick Fury's dark-skinned face on the virtual projection.

However, perhaps because Tony was wearing headphones and on the phone, Luca could only see Nick Fury's mouth moving on the screen, but he couldn't hear any sound.

Upon hearing this, Tony merely shrugged and said casually.

"That's right, it's that braised egg. Oh, braised egg is a Chinese delicacy. You can try it if you have the chance."

Luca: "."

However, Tony clearly didn't want to talk much about S.H.I.E.L.D., and after making that casual remark, he didn't intend to elaborate further.

However, after thinking about it, he still added a sentence.

"Don't worry, we haven't told them much about your situation. As for your identity here, well..."

As he spoke, Tony gestured with his chin, indicating that Luca should look at the table beside him.

There was a temporary visitor pass there, printed out at some unknown time.

Luca's lips twitched slightly upon seeing this.

'These kinds of temporary visitors definitely need to be recorded; it seems like they're more noticeable.'

'Whatever, whatever.'

Luca casually stuffed his visitor pass into his pocket, then looked at the somewhat empty laboratory and asked curiously.

"Mr. Stark, you didn't sleep all night, did you?"

Upon hearing Luca's question, Tony raised an eyebrow indifferently.

He scooped up the orange Hello that was bouncing around at his feet, and then started playing with it while saying this.

"Kid, Einstein only slept 3 hours a year, look at his achievements."

"Huh? A year? Are you sure?"

"Uh, it's 3 hours a day!"

However, at this moment, Jarvis spoke up without any courtesy.

"Sir, according to the data, Einstein was a very famous long sleeper, sleeping more than 10 hours a day!"

"you shut up!"

Tony, somewhat embarrassed and angry, glared at Luca, took a few breaths to calm himself down, and then spoke again.

"The materials you need are all over there, go take a look."
