Chapter 138 Multiverse?

Hearing Tony say that, Steve smiled and said, "I've received a lot of calls asking me to talk to Lynn, but I'm not going to pay any attention to them."

"After all, this matter is directed at us. If we don't let Lynn vent his anger, things will definitely get worse."

"Besides, these people should be taught a lesson so they won't target us again!"

As soon as Steve finished speaking, Natasha came over with a cup of coffee: "This isn't like you, Steve. I thought you would prioritize the bigger picture and try to persuade Lynn or something."

Hearing Natasha's teasing, Steve shrugged: "Lynn is usually quite sensible, so he won't let this country descend into chaos!"

FBI headquarters interrogation room!

"You should be aware of the current public opinion, Mr. Secretary!"

Looking at the Secretary of State sitting in the interrogation chair, Lynn smiled, holding her coffee, and said, "With the evidence laid out on the table, what else do you have to say?"

Hearing Lynn's sarcastic remark, the Secretary of State slammed his fist on the table and roared, "F*** you! This is a frame-up! This is fucking a frame-up!"

"Framed?"

Faced with the Secretary of State's angry expression, Lynn stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray: "I also find it hard to believe. After all, a Secretary of State would use his position to cover up Mexican drug traffickers smuggling drugs into the United States for a hefty reward."

"But the evidence is right here. The funds in your overseas accounts are the best proof, and among the members of Congress and senators we arrested, twenty-four are willing to come forward and testify against you."

"Congresswoman Laurie Thompson further claimed that she had handled many 'dirty things' for you over the years, and to prevent you from holding her accountable, she had preserved evidence of all those dirty deeds."

At this point, Lynn put down her coffee and casually tossed the second piece of evidence in front of him: "Look at this, these are all your former 'confidants'!"

After examining the evidence in front of him, the Secretary of State frowned even more deeply.

Some things were indeed things I instructed Laureen Thompson to do for me, but some things were pure slander!

As a politician with many years of experience, the Secretary of State naturally knows that he has now suffered a crushing defeat!

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, the Secretary of State suppressed his anger and said to Lynn, "Lynn, I want to have a serious talk with you!"

Upon hearing the Secretary of State's words, Lynn raised his hand in a gesture, and the video recording in the interrogation room was immediately turned off.

"I know I don't have immunity, but I still don't want to go to jail!"

Looking at Lynn, the Secretary of State said seriously, "How about we make a deal? With this 'evidence,' the best outcome for me is to become an ordinary person."

"trade?"

Hearing the Secretary of State say that, Lynn laughed and said, "I'd really like to know, what do you have left that makes me want to let you go?"

Inside Duke's office.

After pouring Lynn a glass of water, Duke picked up the documents, glanced at them, and then said to Lynn with some surprise, "Mr. Hall, these political resources..."

"This is an exchange of political resources behind the Secretary of State. As long as we don't pursue him further, these political resources can be used to our advantage."

"With the support of these political resources, you have a great chance of becoming either Attorney General or the future president!"

The higher James Duke goes, the more it will benefit him in the future.

If he becomes president...

After putting the documents away, James Duke said to Lynn, "Mr. Hall, there's been a lot of anxiety in Congress these past three days. Many members are afraid he'll be the next one arrested by the FBI."

"So some members of parliament have already chosen to defect to us during this period."

Hearing Duke say this, Lynn pondered for a moment and said, "With so many vacancies in Congress, let's find a way to place our people in them."

"While we can't completely control Congress, this will give us a significant voice in it!"

"no problem,"

Seeing Lynn stand up, Duke also stood up and said, "Mr. Hall, are we just going to release the Secretary of State like this?"

"Why bother arguing with a dead man?"

As Lynn reached the door, she turned to look at Duke, who was seeing her off, and then smiled, "Be more open-minded and kind to others. After all, arguing with the dead makes us seem petty!"

"clear!"

After understanding the meaning behind Lynn's words, Duke smiled and saw Lynn out of the office!

At a party inside the Illuminati base.

"Cheers!"

Amidst cheerful music, members of the Illuminati and the Avengers, along with Black Bolt and his wife, raised their glasses to celebrate the perfect resolution of the incident.

The party was Tony's idea; after all, ever since Conley Dwyer proposed the Superhero Registration Act, it had been like a boulder weighing on everyone's minds.

Now, not only has this matter been resolved, but Congress is also no longer willing to focus its attention on them.

This is definitely worth throwing a party to celebrate.

"It's a pity Thor hasn't returned from Asgard yet, otherwise we could have tasted the fine wine from the realm of the gods!"

Seeing Tony's somewhat regretful tone, Steve laughed and said, "At the last party, we tried some Asgardian wine, but apart from Lynn and me, no one else could handle it."

After Steve finished speaking, Lynn, holding his wine glass, laughed and said, "In the end, Pepper and Happy had to take you back. You were in such a bad mood for the next week, and now you still want to drink?"

Hearing Lynn's teasing, Tony turned his head and glanced at Pepper and the other women chatting together not far away.

He then spread his hands at Lynn and Steve and said, "What do you know? During that time, although Pepper always complained that I was being stubborn, she took very gentle care of me for a week."

"If I hadn't eventually run out of steam, I really wouldn't have been prepared to 'pull myself together'!"

"Um?"

Hearing Tony say this, Lynn and Steve exchanged a glance, and then both gave Tony a thumbs up!

"Heh, learn from this. When your bodies can't handle it anymore, this will be invaluable experience!"

Seeing Tony's proud expression, Lynn turned to Steve and asked, "Given our physical abilities, will we be unable to handle it?"

"I don't think so!"

After shaking his head, Steve looked at Tony with a hint of pity in his eyes.

"FUXX!"

Without hesitation, Tony gave the two men the middle finger, then walked over to the others with his wine glass.

"I don't know why, but I have a feeling this isn't over yet!"

Looking at the happy crowd at the party, Steve said seriously, "Although it seems like everything is over, the wise Kang escaped using a time machine."

"I have a feeling we'll be facing him again, so Lynn, we need to prepare!"

Hearing Steve's serious tone, Lynn's smile faded as well: "That's what I think too. It's obvious that Wise Kang doesn't intend to end this game. But whatever, let's enjoy the party today and talk about everything tomorrow!"

Seeing Lynn raise his glass, Steve nodded and then clinked glasses with Lynn.

After the party, everyone stayed at the Illuminati base to rest.

Even Black Bolt and Medusa did not leave.

The next morning.

As sunlight streamed into the room through the blinds, Lynn slowly opened her eyes from her sleep.

Opening his eyes, Lynn subconsciously looked around and sat up straight in bed.

"Hmm... what's wrong?"

Gwen, who had been startled awake by Lynn's movements, sat up, rubbing her sleepy eyes, and asked Lynn, "Did you have a nightmare?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Gwen noticed something was wrong with the room.

The room they were in was exactly the same as Lynn's large single-level bedroom in Central Park, down to the smallest details.

But, after the party last night, they were staying at the Illuminati base, so how did they wake up back in Lynn's big apartment?

Seeing this bizarre scene, Lynn and Gwen both got out of bed.

"Lynn, why are we at your house? What's going on?"

In response to Gwen's question, Lynn shook his head: "The specific reason is unclear at the moment, but something must have happened that we don't know about. Let's get dressed first and not let panic affect our judgment!"

Hearing Lynn say that, Gwen began to get dressed and wash up.

During this time, Lynn took out her phone and dialed the numbers of Tony, Steve, Natasha, and everyone else.

They wanted to know if anything unusual had happened to them.

As a result, apart from Wanda, all the numbers of the Illuminati and the Avengers were either invalid or numbers of other strangers.

It's like everyone changed their phone numbers overnight!

Wanda was woken up by Lynn's phone call. She was very surprised when she woke up because she found herself not at the Illuminati base where she stayed last night, but in the apartment that Lynn had bought for her.

A dozen minutes later, outside the apartment.

After reuniting with Lynn, Wanda recounted what happened after she was woken up by the phone call.

"So, you woke up this morning to find yourself in the apartment too? Just like us."

Lynn nodded after hearing Wanda's explanation. Gwen, standing nearby, guessed, "Lynn... have we arrived in a parallel universe?"

As soon as Gwen finished speaking, Wanda pointed to the right and said, "Gwen's guess might be correct. Look over there!"

Looking in the direction Wanda was pointing, a 100-meter-tall sculpture stood in the most prominent position in Manhattan.

"Let's go take a look!"

With that, Lynn drove Wanda and Gwen toward the sculpture.

inside the car.

"I think it's very likely that something happened to cause a spacetime distortion after we went to sleep last night, which brought us to a parallel universe," Gwen continued, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar buildings flashing past the window. "Otherwise, there's no way to explain why all the surrounding buildings have changed, and why the Illuminati and the rest of the Avengers have lost contact!"

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Wanda said, "Actually, after Lynn called me, I tried calling Jean and Ororo, but all the people who answered were strangers."

"The only thing that remains unchanged is Pietro's number, but Pietro doesn't remember me at all!"

Hearing Wanda say this, Gwen paused for a few seconds before saying, "I just called my parents from the bathroom. Their number hasn't changed, and their identities haven't changed either."

"They just don't remember having a daughter like me, and they don't remember Lynn either!"

Hearing Gwen say that, Lynn frowned, then dialed Alice's number while driving.

As soon as the call connected, Alice's familiar voice said, "This is Alice. Who is this?"

"Hello, I'm looking for Mr. Lynn Hall!"

"Who?"

Upon hearing Lynn Hall's name on the other end of the phone, Alice frowned: "Who is Lynn Hall? Which department is he in? And how did you get my number?"

Hearing Alice's questioning tone, Lynn hung up the phone immediately.

"It seems the people of this world have no memory of the three of us!"

In front of a 100-meter-high sculpture.

"Kang, the wise man, single-handedly defeated Loki's Chitauri army, saving the Earth, and created a robot army that prevented all wars worldwide. He is hailed as the greatest man of this century..."

Looking at the long description in front of the sculpture, Gwen frowned and said to Lynn, "Kang the Wise? The mastermind behind the Superhero Registration Act? Could he be a superhero in this parallel universe?"

"No, this shouldn't be a parallel universe. If I'm not mistaken, it must be that Wise Man Kang used a time machine to go back to our past timeline and changed everything!"

"Last night at the party, I was telling Steve that Wise Kang wouldn't give up so easily, and that things would start now..."

Before Lynn could finish speaking, his spider-sense instantly issued a warning.

Almost at the same time, Gwen also turned her head to look to her right.

Hundreds of robots flew in from afar, their target Lynn and his companions.

Upon seeing this, crimson magic appeared in Wanda's palm, while Gwen pressed the nano-capsule that Lynn had asked Tony Stark to make for her at her waist.

As the Spider-Man suit was put on, Gwen immediately said, "Lynn, Wanda, these robots are probably coming for us."

"Leave these robots to me, you guys be careful!"

Nodding to the two, Lynn flew into the air and then rushed towards the steel robots.

The heat radiating from his eyes instantly shattered the robots at the forefront, while the violent lightning energy in his palms directly enveloped the robots.

"Boom!"

With a series of explosions, dozens of steel robots exploded in the air, creating a dazzling display of fireworks.

The other robots immediately fired bullets at Lynn.

A dense hail of bullets rained down on Lynn like a net, but Lynn paid no attention to them.

The force field energy instantly enveloped the sky, and many robots were dismantled by Lynn before they even had a chance to fire.

In just a few dozen seconds, hundreds of steel robots were easily dealt with by Lynn.

The destroyed robot fragments fell to the ground, and countless pedestrians below screamed and ran away.

Before Lynn could turn around and fly back to Wanda and Gwen's side, the broken robot fragments slowly floated from the ground into the air and then assembled into a huge robot tens of meters tall!

Seeing the giant robot, tens of meters tall, unleashing energy from its eyes and attacking him, Lynn was just about to retaliate.

An arrow pierced the air and struck the robot's head. A red light on the arrowhead then illuminated, and a powerful electric current destroyed the robot's control system!

Turning his head to look at the direction from which the arrows were launched, he saw a figure completely covered up standing on the rooftop.

Beside him, a guy in a black spider suit was waving enthusiastically at him, as if he were greeting him.

Although the two men were completely covered up, Lynn recognized them immediately.

Clint Barton and Peter Parker!

Flying to their side, before Lynn could even speak, Peter Parker exclaimed enthusiastically, "Hey buddy, you're really amazing! You destroyed so many steel robots in one go. How come I've never heard of you before?"

"Are you a mutant? Or an Inhuman? But whoever you are, the fact that you attacked the robot army of the wise Kang means you are our ally."

"Haha, with such a powerful ally as you, I think our chances of overthrowing the rule of the wise Kang have increased even further. Oh, by the way, I still don't know your name. May I ask..."

Before Spider-Man in black could finish speaking, Hawkeye interrupted him, "This isn't the time to talk. If we don't leave quickly, Wise Man Kang's combat team will be here!"

Hearing Hawkeye say this, Peter Parker slapped his forehead repeatedly: "Sorry, sorry, I was just too excited. After all, we haven't seen anyone dare to defy the wise Kang in a long time!"

With that, Peter swung down from the building on his web, and Hawkeye looked at Lynn and said, "Shall we go somewhere else?"

"good!"

Lynn did not refuse Hawkeye's invitation.

He also wanted to know if everyone else was there in the timeline altered by the wise Kang.

At the same time, in the office of the wise Kang at New York City Hall.

"Sir, our robot army was defeated by a stranger who suddenly appeared, and this stranger has been taken away by the Defenders!"

As he spoke, the subordinate played the holographic projection video.

Watching the video, Lynn Hall decisively wiped out his robot army, and in order to avoid satellite surveillance, he even entered the sewers with Hawkeye and Spider-Man.

The wise Kang leaned back in his chair and laughed, "It has finally appeared. The timeline of going back to the past to change the future has resulted in the disappearance of the anchor and the people around him for so many years."

"After waiting for so long, he's finally back!"
