Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Chapter 512 Don't tell jokes if they're not funny

"I refuse." Tony's answer was exactly what Lin Yi had expected, a decisive and straightforward refusal.

Bruce and Diana were not surprised at all, clearly having anticipated this outcome.

They certainly knew what the Infinity Stones represented. Theoretically speaking, having a complete set of Infinity Stones would allow them to do whatever they wanted in a great sense, to do whatever they wanted in the context of the entire universe.

"Mr. Stark, we can assure you that the Infinity Stones will not be used for anything other than locating Clark and the eternal metal Möbius strip," Diana said, repeating the statement she had discussed with Bruce beforehand.

"We can use the Infinity Stones under your control."

Tony shook his head, his attitude remaining clear and decisive.

"Well then, Mr. Stark." Diana didn't give up; the group had already prepared to persuade her.

"How about we borrow your quantum realm travel device and travel to the very beginning of the universe, a time before any life existed?"

"You could even schedule a one-way trip for us, what do you think?"

Bruce also considered the method Lin Yi had come up with. The only problem was whether the Infinity Stones could be used to locate Clark in the current timeline of this universe.

If possible, they would use the Infinity Stones to pull Clark directly over.

If that doesn't work... then we'll talk about not working, because there aren't any better options right now.

Tony shook his head without any hesitation. Tony knew that Lin Yi was capable of creating the Infinity Stones, and since Lin Yi hadn't given them to them directly or appeared in front of him to say anything, it meant that he was leaving the decision-making power to Tony.

But Tony still couldn't understand why Lin Yi would make something that was very simple for him complicated.

These things did not prevent Tony from rejecting Diana.

"I don't quite understand." Diana looked at Tony, who was still refusing, and disappointment was written all over her face.

"I don't understand. This is clearly an effort for the benefit of the universe, so why reject it? Is it because they're wary of us?"

Tony knew that unless things were made clear, the group would most likely not give up.

So, he reached out and summoned the mechanical arm controlled by Jarvis, projecting all the information about the Infinity Stones, just as he had done when he set out to find them.

Along with that, there was also information about the quantum shuttle device.

Diana couldn't understand it, and Arthur understood it even less. But Barry and Bruce could glean something from it, something about those quantum travel devices.

However, the technological gap between the two was too great. Even though Bruce and Barry studied it intently for a long time, they only barely understood the principle.

Of course, Tony won't release any technical information either.

"You're making it very simple: locate Clark using the Infinity Stones." Tony pointed to the six Infinity Stones on the projection.

"But didn't Lin Yi tell you? Or is it that you didn't collect all the information online?"

"A single Infinity Stone can be activated by ordinary humans through certain means."

"This does not mean that the Infinity Stones have no side effects."

"However, if the frequency of use and contact is controlled, the side effects of a single Infinity Stone are almost negligible for ordinary people."

"However, when you possess and want to use two Infinity Stones, the side effects are beyond what ordinary people can bear."

"The Infinity Stones are interconnected, and the more stones there are, the more terrifying the exponential increase in side effects will be."

Do you know the specific meaning behind snapping your fingers with the six Infinity Stones?

"Gamma-ray bursts will spread outwards towards the edge of the universe from the center of a snap. Whatever the meaning of this snap, it is a shock to the universe."

"The more turbulence there is, the more likely the universe is to run into problems."

"Maybe Clark snapping his fingers won't have much of an effect, but you guys..." Tony's gaze finally settled on Diana.

A demigod, a boy who plays in the water, a fast runner, and this seemingly very strong ordinary person.

"Even if you could bear it, I would not give you the Infinity Stones. It would only increase the variables and potential crises in our universe."

"Also, don't even think about using quantum travel devices to go to other timelines; that would be creating a potential crisis as well."

The expressions on the faces of the people Tony spoke of grew increasingly grim.

"As for what you said about going to the moment when a universe was just born..." Tony drawled, as if he was considering the possibility, which made Diana's eyes light up.

But in the end, he looked at Tony with disappointment and rejected the answer.

"That won't work either, I don't know what your universe is like."

"But our universe has been accompanied by exceptionally powerful life forms since its inception."

"So your plan is more dangerous than traveling to other timelines. Because those entities wouldn't allow you to snap your fingers there, understand what I mean?"

Barry looked at the group, then cautiously asked Tony, "Mr. Stark, could you help us snap our fingers?"

Tony stared in astonishment at the circus kid who was running so fast, then chuckled, "Kid, if I fight, won't it increase the crisis in the universe?"

"Don't be so funny. Use your comedic talent in the circus; you're not welcome here."

Barry was embarrassed and went offline after being criticized.

"Well, Mr. Stark, I understand your concerns. But I think that compared to the potential impact of Clark, snapping your fingers is clearly safer, isn't it?"

"Isn't Mr. Stark worried that Clark and the permanent metal Möbius strip might have some irreversible impact on the universe?"

Tony looked at him strangely: "Worried?"

He pointed in the direction of Lin Yi's cabin: "What am I worried about? Do you know how powerful that kid Lin Yi is?"

Bruce: ...

Believe it or not, he actually knew that just last night, a mechanical little lizard unleashed a barrage of attacks on him, capable of creating and destroying the universe, right?

Do not believe.

Tony had no idea about the shield's "battle record".

"Your Clarke's universe-destroying equation is the Anti-Life Equation, and what's that... eternal metal Möbius strip?"

"Lin Yi could destroy the universe with just a thought. With someone like that on Earth, what problems do you think I need to worry about?"

"Don't you find that funny?"

Bruce said in a deep voice, "This concerns the universe, and it's not funny, Mr. Stark."

Tony sneered, "Then stop telling jokes."

Tony stood up, his intention to see the guest out was clear.

"I suggest you eat and drink as you please. I'll help you find Clark, but only for faster-than-light communication base stations."

"Neither Clark nor the eternal metal Möbius strip can destroy this universe."

Barry froze, then blurted out instinctively, "Mr. Collins only gave us three months..."
