The mechanical craze in Marvel

"Actually, I've made some special contacts during this period. There are some people who want to fight against Nolan Locke, and I think their methods are quite powerful."

"If they can help us deal with Nolan Locke, then we only need to give them a little assistance, and perhaps we can solve the problem of Nolan Locke, which is already quite troublesome."

Upon hearing his words, everyone stared wide-eyed at him. They never expected that someone would bring up the topic of dealing with Noah Locke.

This was something they considered absolutely taboo, because if they did it again and angered Locke, not only would their entire regime be overthrown.

Moreover, no one wants to risk their life against an opponent they can't possibly defeat; it's disrespectful to their own life, and no one wants to pay the price of death. So they all thought this person was simply insane.

But the man's expression remained remarkably calm. He had already guessed what everyone was thinking and knew that they had been terrified by Locke and had lost all backbone. However, at this moment, he still had a sliver of confidence and then spoke:

“I know the fear in your hearts, and I also have a deep fear of Nolan Locke. However, Locke’s power is beyond our expectations. If we continue to drag this out, it will not do us any good.”

The Nolan Locke will become increasingly powerful, and we can only be constantly squeezed out of our space. If one day we no longer want to continue to devour it, then it can further devour our regime.

Then become the master of this earth. I absolutely cannot let such a thing happen, because the earth must not fall into the hands of one person. That would be a huge disaster for the entire earth. And now there are some people who are willing to help us.

I've witnessed some of their methods, and I believe they have a chance of success. So, is there anyone willing to join me in fighting Roland? If anyone is willing to fight Nolan Locke with me, then you will be the heroes of Earth in the future.”

Although he spoke passionately, the crowd looked at each other blankly, clearly not paying much attention to what he said. Even though he spoke eloquently, he didn't provide any data.

And the power shown by those countless videos is more real.

Nolan Locke's power is simply too great. Such power is so immense that even nuclear bombs cannot penetrate it. Under these circumstances, for him to claim he could contend with, or even defeat, the Nolan Locke machine is utterly impossible.

Under such circumstances, how could they possibly agree to do something that would cost them their lives and not produce the results they desired?

So someone suddenly spoke up:

"Give up. Nolan Locke is now far beyond our control. Our best course of action is to hope that Nolan Locke will remain as he is now, without any ambition for the regime."

We can grant him unparalleled freedom, but at the same time he will allow us to enjoy our full rights, which is more than enough for us, and the entire planet needs Nolan Locke's help.

"Because only in this way can Earth remain stable. You know, if Thanos hadn't had Nolan Locke, the entire Earth would probably have been wiped out. So I think that continuing to devour it like this might not be a bad thing for us."

As soon as this person spoke, many people nodded in agreement.

Although it may sound harsh, it is indeed the problem they are currently facing.

To be or not to be?

This has never been a problem.

Chapter 421 Assassination

However, although most people were clear-headed, some still had other thoughts in their minds. So after the meeting, some people still sneaked over, wanting to get definite information and find out what kind of methods were used to contend with the terrifying Nolan Locke.

If they weren't absolutely certain of success, they would never get involved in this matter. After all, they didn't want to get involved with Nolan Locke. They knew that although Nolan Locke hadn't carried out a large-scale purge, given his current power and past actions, it was entirely possible for him to do something.

With Nolan Locke's power, if he so desired, they could very well be dead in the streets the very next day.

No one even dared to investigate this matter. This was what Brother Luo had been training. In this state, although they could still control the power of high-ranking officials, they also felt all kinds of humiliation. This made them unwilling to act recklessly. With the invisible mountain of King Locke pressing down on their heads, they made such a decision. After hearing their thoughts, people immediately agreed. For them, their thoughts were the same.

As for their methods, they are actually very simple; they are a group of refugees from the bottom of their hearts.

Although they are cunning refugees, their methods are extremely terrifying. These people possess the ability to become invisible, so much so that they cannot be detected even if someone is standing right in front of them. After discovering this ability, they immediately made arrangements to use it for assassination. If they could infiltrate Luoyang Locke, they could replace everything at Locke Technology.

From then on, they would no longer have a mountain pressing down on their heads, which was naturally an extremely good thing for them.

However, assassinating Nolan Locke was not an easy task. After all, Nolan Locke was too powerful. If they tried to assassinate him head-on, even with the engine's ability, they would not succeed. With Nolan Locke's strength, it would be too easy for him to withstand such an attack. So they quickly made some arrangements to hold a grand banquet with Nolan Locke.

The reason for questioning the banquet was very simple: Nolan Locke had done too many things on Earth, and sending out any one of them to do this would be more than enough. With this in mind, they nodded in satisfaction and began to think about what to do next, and not just the assassination of the Invisible Man.

For these Nolan Lockes, there are other things that are indispensable, such as tools that can kill Tralock. They are very clear that Nolan Lockes' current power is too great. Even ordinary bullets probably cannot penetrate Lockes' divine power. Under such circumstances, even to carry out an assassination is an extremely difficult thing, or even almost impossible.

Therefore, they must have a weapon that can truly kill Nolan Locke; that is the most important thing. And they already have the answer regarding this weapon.

The Spear of Longinus.

This is the spear that once pierced Jesus.

Legend has it that he possessed invincible power due to the presence of sacred snow within him. This spear, however, is now scattered among the people. After extensive investigation, it has long been in the hands of those who sought it. This is why the man contacted them—he didn't possess the weapon, despite the existence of these invisible figures.

However, without sufficient weapons, taking down Noel Locke would be impossible, even suicidal. In the current situation, they are fully capable of dealing with Noel Locke, which is more than enough for them.

After returning to New York, Noel Locke had no way of understanding what they had done. In fact, it could be said that Noel Locke didn't care what those politicians wanted to do to him. He knew that these politicians had always harbored ill intentions towards him, for a very simple reason: his very existence had made them aware of it.

Many of his constraints were gone. Nolan Locke wasn't stupid; he knew this would happen. However, he didn't care much about his sister. Their power was no longer a significant threat to him; they were futile.

After returning to Locke Technology, Nolan Locke began to deal with some things that he hadn't dealt with before, which was a huge problem for him.

Although he has become a talent show manager by now, and Luo Technology has long been deployed, proving that many things can be done by others without his involvement, there are still some things that he needs to do personally, such as communicating on some major issues.

There are many people he needs to communicate with personally. Although there are many talented people in Locke Technology, the selection of these worlds requires his personal approval. Without him, the next mission cannot proceed at all. Moreover, for Lala Locke, the most crucial issue is the problem of initiative. This issue of initiative has controlled him for a long time, and even entering the dimension has not been able to resolve it. So what he needs to do now is to see if there is a way to break the curse in the universe. He has already sent out all kinds of information channels, hoping to find relevant information from them.

Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find anything similar. Even now, in the universe, he looked at various messages, some of which were about curses, but none of them could solve his problem. After searching for a long time, he finally gave up completely. Sure enough, it was impossible to solve this big problem in this universe. Although there might be a way to break the curse or an alternative in some corner of the universe, he simply didn't have the means to do so. He could only go to another world to solve this problem.

However, if this situation continues, it won't be a good thing for him. He didn't tell the others around him about his curse, because this wasn't a good thing for him either. Telling them wouldn't help; it would only cause them to worry in vain. For a man, these things are meaningless.

"Mr. Locke, Mr. Snell invites you to a party where many social elites will be present to recognize your contributions to the planet."

A phone call came in, and Nolan Locke was slightly surprised to hear it. Snell was a high-ranking politician with considerable power, and a White House employee. However, Nolan Locke hadn't expected to come to their attention. He had always kept his distance from those in the White House, with little contact between them. He didn't want to have much interaction with those politicians, and those in the White House naturally wanted nothing more than to have any contact with him.

Under these circumstances, both sides had remained peaceful and had no contact. However, the other party suddenly contacted him to say that they wanted to host a banquet for him, which surprised Nolan Locke. Could it be that they felt they had discovered him and wanted to change their approach to improve their relationship?

Not wanting to create further conflicts with himself, Nolan Locke didn't refuse Dai's idea at the time. Anyway, he was about to leave, so it would be good to see those people. At least he needed to ensure that no one would come looking for Locke Star for a while, otherwise, when he returned from other worlds...

That would be a troublesome matter for him as well. He didn't want Locke Technology to have any more problems after he returned. The previous situation had made him realize that some people's minds are always fickle. They always want to find his weaknesses and then seize his rights. Under such circumstances, he hoped to solve this problem before leaving to avoid any further trouble later.

Besides Locke, Tony Stark and other members of the Avengers were also present. After all, the Avengers had all participated in the battle against Thanos. Even Stephen Strange was invited to the meeting, which dispelled many of Nolan Locke's doubts.

After all, in his view, if someone truly wanted to deal with him, they would never invite so many people. Many of them were his friends; inviting them would significantly increase the difficulty and cost of dealing with him, which was certainly not in their interest. Since the other party had invited so many people, it was enough to prove they had no intention of harming him. With this in mind, Nolan Locke naturally felt more at ease. Although he wasn't afraid of any assassination attempts, the prospect of such trouble would still make him anxious.

While dealing with all sorts of messy and trivial matters, Nolan Locke also prepared for time travel.

At the same time, the curses on him became increasingly severe. These curses would flare up every now and then, causing him lifelong physical pain and a significant decrease in his physical strength.

This made Nolan Locke realize that he had to act quickly. If he didn't hurry, he would lose all his power in no time. At that time, all the power he possessed would disappear, and naturally, the danger would increase dramatically after he traveled to other universes. That would certainly not be a good thing for him.

Therefore, he hopes to leave this universe and enter another universe before his power is significantly weakened, to solve his problems, and then return after solving them, so that he can relax completely.

So Nolan Locke has made a decision: after this banquet, he will leave this universe and embark on a series of adventures in the next universe. He is now looking forward to seeing what will be in the new universe and whether it will meet his requirements. If it does not meet his requirements, it may be too much of a problem.

However, based on Moranlock's experiences in other universes, he has gained some understanding of these mentors. Although these situations are rather troublesome, each universe shares commonalities. Even if Xiaomi enters a new universe, the cosmic issues shouldn't pose a significant problem.

This wasn't a major problem for him. Even though his power was somewhat damaged by the presence of an enemy, it wouldn't affect the essence of his power. He could easily resolve any trouble he encountered. He was no longer the same person he used to be.

When he traveled to other universes, he was always on edge, cautious and worried about potential trouble. But now he has long since passed that era. He is no longer bound by anything, and no one can make him feel controlled. This is no longer a big problem for him.

With Nolan Locke making intensive preparations, the inspection date arrived quickly. Nolan Locke had already prepared the relevant quality control measures early in the morning, and so did everyone else.

Nolan Locke attended the banquet alone this time, without any other guests. He didn't bring any Hela either, since Hela didn't like participating in such things, and others were also somewhat resistant to the technology policy. It wasn't something everyone liked, so Nolan Locke came alone.

Upon arriving at the banquet, he found it to be an extremely large event, attended by all sorts of social elites. The Avengers were also already there. At this moment, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He had known that Nolan Locke would be here, which was why he had agreed to attend the banquet. Otherwise, he would never have come. However, Nolan Locke did not notice that someone's gaze was fixed on him the whole time.

However, when Nolan Locke Quick Carpenter turned around, the person withdrew his gaze and disappeared into the crowd, as if he had never appeared at all.

Moreover, no one else noticed anything unusual. After all, today was a very happy day, so naturally some people would think that someone was planning to come and make a move against Locke.

Just as the banquet was in progress, a person suddenly disappeared from the banquet and then quietly crept towards Nolan Locke.

……

Chapter 422 Artifact

Faced with the sudden attack, no one else was prepared at all. As for Nolan Locke, he never expected that anyone in the Earth Sphere of this era would dare to assassinate him, so Nokoyan was completely unprepared.

At that moment, the man moved all over the city, disappearing into the air so that no one could detect him. Only the artist showed a faint expression on his face.

He knew that the assassins he had sent had already begun to act, and that Nolan Locke would soon perish because of it. He had already made all the calculations for this. With Nolan Locke dead, the entire Earth would be under too much control.

When he discussed things with those congressmen, he actually intended to use their prestige to invite Nolan Locke, but at the same time, what he needed to do was much more than that.

If his goal was simply to defeat Nolan Locke, then he wouldn't have needed to do so much, because the consequences of doing so much are extremely serious.

Moreover, singing songs by a self-harming person is an extremely dangerous thing. No one knows if it will succeed, and even if it does, it won't bring him much benefit. But now he has reached a certain cooperation with those alien creatures.

If he can defeat Nolan Locke, he will gain control of Earth, and all he needs to do is provide some protection for those beings, which is naturally an extremely worthwhile deal for him.

Therefore, he didn't hesitate at all and decided to do it. With this in mind, he quietly watched Nolan Locke's next changes. He believed that no one would be able to detect the assassin because he had already used all the means available on Earth.

He investigated the alien's cloaked form but found nothing. He believed that such an engine was absolutely invincible, and under these circumstances, there was no possibility that Loylock's death would be discovered by innocent people.

For this purpose, he had even prepared a large army, which would be put under his control as soon as Nolan Locke died. However, although his plan was very good.

However, Nolan Locke sensed something amiss as the invisible man approached him. Although his third-generation super soldier body was unable to detect such things.

However, the terrifying nature of it is exactly the same. No one can deceive his basic senses, at least not the so-called invisible man. Under such circumstances, although he did not react in any way.

However, his body instinctively sensed something was wrong and he looked in the direction the invisible creature had moved. There were no relics there, but he knew that some danger was approaching from there.

You actually saw Nolan Locke Bridge looking over, and you were immediately shocked. He never expected that his proud invisibility ability would be detected. No, it shouldn't be that he was detected. If he had been detected...

So he's probably dead now. No one knows Nolan Locke's strength better than him. Under these circumstances, he's absolutely certain that if he were discovered, he would definitely be training. Death simply doesn't offer the second possibility.

The fact that Nolan Locke didn't attack him was enough to show that although Nolan Locke had sensed something, he couldn't pinpoint his situation at all. It was even possible that Nolan Locke had just glanced at him like an ordinary young lady, and he was just being a bit paranoid. With that thought in mind, he held Steel and Neil in his hand.

Then, continuing with his unwavering promise, Lanlock walked forward, leaving no room for maneuver in his wake. Even time itself could be stretched to his present moment—this was his unique ability, making him the strongest even within his own race.

Upon hearing this decision, he moved to Nolan Locke's side and grabbed him. Just as he was about to eat Nolan Locke, a golden light flashed in Nolan Locke's eyes.

He felt a thorn in his back, and in that instant, an iron spearhead shot towards the spot where he had just been standing. In just a moment, the terrifying spearhead had already slashed across his body.

Perhaps it happened to Nolan Locke. Although Nolan Locke didn't feel much damage, I did hit him, but Nolan Locke dodged in time.

Moreover, while such a spear is incredibly powerful, it's still very difficult to completely break through its defenses; simply covering a layer of skin already consumes a great deal of effort.

Even so, Nolan Locke had a very clear understanding of the situation. He hadn't expected that people would think there was something that could hurt him so easily. He was quite certain that the thing that had hurt him wasn't controlled by any other powerful force.

In other words, it injured itself purely by utilizing the inherent properties of the object. Under these circumstances, Nolanok was still very confident in his third-generation super soldier, Judgment. Apart from the Super God Academy and other higher-level items, it was simply impossible for the weapon with the trademark to exist, at least in this universe.

Most people don't possess this weapon, but now someone has used it to assassinate him. Lolock's face turned extremely ugly, and without hesitation, he hurled it at Kong Jun, instantly creating a cloud of blood mist.

The same terrifying sound wave spread from the pet's fist base in all directions, and then spread to the acupoints, but no one was found.

Then an iron spearhead clattered to the ground. There was no sound from him at all today, as if he were just an ordinary mortal object that had never produced anything. But Nuo knew very well that this iron spearhead was the one that had hit him earlier.

If it weren't for this thing, even if the other party used their power and I was there, I would never be able to say anything. Without a doubt, this is an absolute treasure for Nolanov.

However, Nolan Locke didn't pay much attention to this. He casually picked up the spear, and the ground was already covered by a cloud of snow mist. Everyone noticed what was happening. Although they didn't quite understand what was going on with Locke's actions, they could sense what was happening, and many people immediately started screaming.

The entire venue began to descend into chaos. The two members in charge walked past from the south. Nolan Locke wore a faint look of disdain. Wanda rushed over, saw the iron spearhead in his hand, and said:

"What's going on here?"
