Upon seeing the young man before him, Tony Stark immediately recognized him: "It's you! What are you doing here?"
"It seems you still remember me. As for how I ended up here, it's because I came to rescue you."
As Bai Ye spoke, Stark immediately recalled everything that had happened to him: he had been attacked by terrorists in Afghanistan! And he had also been hit by his own missiles.
Recalling the pain before he lost consciousness, Stark opened his collar and looked at his chest. His chest was now completely unharmed, with only a few scars proving that everything before was not an illusion.
"What's going on here?" Stark said, then noticed a virtual border the size of a human head in his field of vision, like a chat application, with one or two messages popping up every now and then.
'Is this the thing Bai Ye was talking about in his line of sight?' Tony muttered to himself.
"Where should I begin?" Bai Ye crossed his arms, tapped his left arm lightly with his right index finger, and then said, "Let's start with the attack you were attacked. First of all, the attack was carried out by your uncle Obadiah, who hired people to get rid of you."
"Wait, what did you say? How could it be him... Ouch! What are you doing!"
Upon hearing that Obadiah was responsible for the attack, Tony Stark was shocked and wanted to refute it, but the next moment he was lightly tapped on the forehead by Bai Ye's index finger, causing him to cry out in pain.
Seeing Stark clutching his bruised forehead and gasping for breath, Bai Ye slowly withdrew his right hand.
"Can't you see I'm talking? Don't interrupt me, you're breaking my train of thought," Bai Ye said. "Anyway, this attack was carried out by your uncle's men. If you don't believe it, you can go back and investigate yourself."
Stark wanted to curse, but clutching his throbbing forehead, he shamefully chickened out.
"Now, here's why I saved you. It's simple: I need you to do something for me."
"You should have noticed that transparent border in your line of sight."
Bai Ye said, "This border is a communication platform that spans different worlds. I am also a member of it, and you just happened to be selected by this communication platform when you were attacked."
Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, Stark looked up and down at the chat group in front of him.
Seeing the constantly flashing messages, he subconsciously wanted to try to operate the chat group, but Bai Ye's cold words stopped him in his tracks.
"If you don't want to be killed by me, you'd better stop your curiosity now and wait for me to finish speaking before you take any action."
These words immediately stopped Stark from taking action, and he said helplessly, "Alright, you go first."
"To put it simply, I joined this chat group two months ago, and the first version of the 'Everyone Has Skills Practice' that I released earlier was also obtained from this chat group."
"But unlike you, this group had an administrator before I joined, and as an administrator, I naturally have some privileges. Because they were wary of me, they banned me from speaking on my first day in the group."
"As for the so-called 'silence,' it means that you are prohibited from posting any information in the group; you can only passively receive it," Bai Ye explained.
"So you want me to put in a good word with the administrator and get him to lift your ban?" Stark said, but then he saw Bai Ye staring at him like he was an idiot.
Bai Ye said, "I want you to pretend you've never known me, communicate with that administrator, and then trick him into coming to our world so I can kill him."
'Kill him...' Stark looked at the boy in front of him. Was he really that ruthless, even though he was so young?
"Just because he banned you? So you want to kill him? What kind of person is that administrator?" Stark asked.
He hoped that Bai Ye's answer would give him an excuse to agree to take action.
I don't care about his character.
Bai Ye said impatiently, "Whether he's a rapist or a savior, he'll die if he offends me."
"Even if he is a so-called great philanthropist, if he offends me, I will kill him. Why do I need so many reasons to kill someone?"
"Does a playboy like you remember how many women you've slept with? You wouldn't consider what bad things the other woman has done in the past before sleeping with her, would you?" Bai Ye asked.
Looking at the fussy Stark, Bai Ye urged, "Just one question: are you going to help or not?"
“What if I say no?” Stark probed.
“Then you’ll offend me too.” Bai Ye looked at Stark with icy eyes.
Sitting on the bed, Stark instinctively moved a little away from Bai Ye before saying, "You're going to kill me too!"
"No, no, no, it's not just that." Bai Ye counted on his fingers and said, "First, you will die. Then, I will cooperate with Obadiah, who wants to kill you, so that he can take over your company and make it bigger and stronger."
"Then I noticed that your secretary, Pepper, is still quite attractive. You must have a thing for her."
“But since you are dead, we can’t let him live a life of widowhood. I will recommend Obadiah to marry her, and every year on the seventh day after your death, he will bring her to your grave to offer incense.”
"I've already come up with seventy-two revenge plans, and these are just two or three of them. For the sake of your mental health, I won't go into the rest."
Stark was speechless at this point; the guy in front of him was practically a devil: "What if I agree to your request?"
"Then you will gain my friendship," Bai Ye said with a smile.
'What good is that?' Stark thought to himself.
Seeing through Stark's thoughts, Bai Ye said, "If you gain the friendship of a superhero, they will control you and make strict demands on you. But if you gain my friendship, as long as you don't make any fundamental mistakes, whether it's rape, murder, or anything else, I won't interfere too much."
"With my permission, you will be granted a pardon."
Bai Ye looked at Stark and said, "You know Kingpin, right? As the head of the biggest mob in the United States, he's involved in most of the organized crime in New York. My friend is naturally his friend too. If you have any trouble in the future, you can contact him directly to resolve it."
"When I rule the world, you, my friend, will be able to kill whoever you want, sleep with whoever you want, and do whatever you want without anyone daring to interfere."
“Do you really think I can’t do things like murder and women with my own assets?” Stark said arrogantly.
"Heh." Looking at the arrogant Stark in front of him, Bai Ye mocked him for being too young.
“If you’re not my friend, then you won’t have my protection. No matter how much money you have, if one of my other friends takes a fancy to your woman and wants to sleep with her, what can you do?”
"No one can refuse Bai Ye's friendship," Bai Ye said slowly. "You may not use my privilege of friendship, but you cannot be without it."
Chapter 115 Mutual Traps
At this moment, the white night is revealing the cruelty of the world to Stark without any attempt to conceal it.
If you are my friend Baiye, I don't care how you commit crimes, as long as you don't mess with me, I can't be bothered at all.
If you're not my friend, and my other friends are picking on you, I won't just ignore it; in fact, if you fight back, I might choose to help my friends beat you up.
As for your point about this being a crime?
What nonsense! There's no crime involved. How could my friend Baiye commit a crime? He's just too young and naive, killing people for fun.
Well, after I kill you, I'll talk to him privately. He's really immature.
"So choose," Bai Ye said earnestly, looking at Stark. "Do you want to offend me, or gain my friendship?"
"Remember, you only have one chance. If you don't choose me, I'll go and get Obama to sleep with your secretary."
Threat, naked threat.
Faced with Bai Ye's gentle smile, Stark gritted his teeth and said, "I promise you."
“Very good, you made the right choice.” Bai Ye smiled and nodded, temporarily setting aside the idea of having Professor X forcibly control Stark.
Having agreed, Stark seemed to have suddenly lost his pride, and slowly asked, "What should I do next?"
"What to do? Of course, you should immediately contact that all-knowing and all-powerful immortal in the group. Then you repeat what he said, and I'll say a sentence, and you send it back," Bai Ye said.
Stark nodded and relayed the private message from the all-knowing and all-powerful sage: "[Hello, welcome to the chat group 'Smiling Emoji'.]"
[If any newcomers have any questions, feel free to ask me. I'm the admin of this chat group, 'Smiling'.]
By the way, if you provide your birth date, time, age, and past experiences, I can deduce your future trajectory.
……
As Stark recounted the story, Bai Ye raised an eyebrow. It turned out that Stark was using fortune-telling as an excuse to find out what stage of the plot the other person was on.
"Can this administrator really predict my future?" Stark asked, looking up.
"He's no expert, he's just spouting nonsense after watching a few movies, reading novels and comics." Bai Ye sneered.
"What do you mean?" Stark asked, puzzled.
"Your world, your past, are nothing more than a Marvel comic or movie in his eyes," Bai Ye explained.
“How is that possible?” Stark said in disbelief.
"What's impossible about that? Although the universe itself is finite, the number of universes is infinite. There is always a universe more infinite than infinity that can give birth to everything."
"You should know the theory that monkeys can type out Shakespeare. Even without an infinite number of monkeys, after several arrangements by Graham, there will definitely be a group of monkeys that can type out every famous book on Earth in the order in which literature appeared."
"As long as the probability is not zero, then it is 100% in the face of infinity. In the face of the exhaustive method of infinite universes, what problem is there for you or me as characters in novels or comics?"
Upon hearing Bai Ye's theory, Stark instantly understood and felt much better. Then, realizing something, he looked at Bai Ye and said, "So how did you know that my comics were in the Administrator's world?"
“Because I’ve also read your comics.” Bai Ye didn’t hide anything and said directly, “That’s why he’s wary of me. He’s afraid I’ll expose his tricks, even though at first I even wanted to play along with him.”
“So what’s my next storyline in the comics?” Stark asked.
"If things had gone smoothly and without too much interference, you would have become a superhero, fighting evil everywhere, marrying your female assistant, and fighting alien invaders, ultimately dying in the process."
"However, if you keep talking nonsense, your next scene will turn into an adult-oriented storyline where you die, and your uncle and female assistant get together and play cards in your funeral hall," Bai Ye urged.
……
Meanwhile, in another post-apocalyptic world, the administrator leaned back on the sofa, watching Stark who hadn't replied to messages for a long time, growing increasingly anxious: 'Has he really been captured and taken to Afghanistan?'
[Tony Stark]: Hi, I was just kidnapped by militants in Afghanistan, and only now have I had time to check this chat group.
"They replied. It really is in Afghanistan." The administrator's expression changed.
[Omniscient and Omnipotent Immortal]: It's alright. Judging from your situation, you're in a very bad predicament right now. If you encounter any trouble, you can ask me for help.
[Tony Stark]: Not for now. I already have a plan to break out. I'm going to build a small Arc Reactor based on the materials they gave me to power the Iron Man armor.
In reality, Stark looked at Bai Ye and asked, "Weren't we supposed to lure him over? Why are you suddenly talking about building an arc reactor?"
"What's the rush? You need to maintain your rebellious persona and not give him any reason to doubt you. Who trusts a stranger so easily right away? Let him cool off for a few days and lower his guard," Bai Ye said calmly.
In the private chat interface, the administrator nodded as he looked at the message. Just like the Tony Stark he remembered, he wouldn't easily back down.
But don't rush. Let him wait a month. When Ethan is on the verge of death according to the plot, he'll have plenty of time to beg for help.
[Omniscient and Omnipotent Immortal]: It's good that you have a plan. Since that's the case, I won't interfere with your actions.
Bai Ye said, "For the next few days, use the excuse of building a reactor to just look at the group chat and don't participate in the discussions. Ten days from now, wait for me here at this location."
"Ten days later?" Stark was taken aback, not expecting that Bai Ye would take so long to go fishing.
"I won't interfere with whatever you want to do before that," Bai Ye said calmly, then turned and walked outside.
"Hey, you're just leaving like this? Why don't you take me back to New York?" Stark called out as he watched the White Nights disappear into the distance.
"Go back yourself. Next, I'm going to visit a friend near the Himalayas in Nepal." Bai Ye said, then soared into the sky with a bang and disappeared from Stark's sight.
'The Himalayas?' Stark paused for a moment.
