I evolve infinitely in the Marvel world...

It's hard to say whether humanity will be able to bring back any rare materials from space that don't exist on Earth in the next few decades.

Even if Harvey helps bring it back, researching and manufacturing it will take a lot of time, so catching up with the starting point of alien technology cannot be achieved in a short period of time.

"Tony, you don't need to be in such a hurry."

"Although I understand that you want to connect with the universe and frantically absorb knowledge from various civilizations so that you can invent more things to benefit mankind."

"But you don't need to be too anxious, as long as you don't encounter any accidents or die in battle."

“You have a long lifespan, so you can study it step by step,”

Harvey saw the wry smile on Tony's face and offered words of comfort.

"I have plenty of time, but Earth and humanity may not have that much time."

Upon hearing this, Tony crossed his arms and touched his chin with the other, a conflicted expression on his face.

Since Harvey brought him alien technology, Tony has spent most of his time in the research lab, except for meals, three hours of exercise every day, and spending time with Pepper after midnight.

Fortunately, he joined the Void; otherwise, with only two to four hours of rest each day for several months, his body would have collapsed long ago.

Seeing Tony like this, Harvey knew that for someone like Tony, who was cursed by knowledge, the more he knew, the more uneasy he felt.

Those cursed by knowledge will feel anxious about insufficient firepower and about potential security risks.

To completely eliminate this anxiety, Tony can only truly find peace of mind by resolving his concerns.

Otherwise, no matter what you say, it will be difficult to put Tony at ease so he can slowly do what interests him and spend each day lazily and comfortably.

However, this was not a bad thing for Harvey, because he knew that the more Tony acted this way, the more likely his plan would be to be implemented.

However, Harvey felt that they should wait for the right time before discussing the plan.

"Time will bring you everything you want. Let's not talk about this now."

"How's your Iron Man armor?"

Therefore, Harvey noticed that Tony had proactively changed the direction of the conversation.

“I studied the things you brought back for me last time for more than two months.”

"The materials we brought back are more suitable for improving the intelligence of the armor than for improving its power or hardness."

"Therefore, in just over a month, the performance of the Iron Man armor has only been slightly improved, with the greater improvement mainly reflected in its intelligence."

Seeing that Harvey had taken the initiative to change the subject, Tony temporarily put aside his concerns and spoke up.

If Jarvis's intelligence is enhanced, the Iron Man armor will be equivalent to having enhanced intelligence, enabling it to execute all his instructions more quickly.

Chapter 105 I Have a Request

"Shouldn't you have some limitations regarding intelligent AI?"

Harvey glanced at Tony after hearing his words.

Tony is a mad scientist who created Ultron.

The Avengers haven't been fully assembled yet, and he's not necessarily always on Earth.

If Tony were to create something similar to Ultron ahead of time, triggering an Omnic Crisis, even if it were ultimately prevented, it would still cause massive casualties.

Therefore, Harvey felt it was necessary to remind Tony.

"How could I not know what I made?"

“Jarvis’s deep programming has many limitations that ensure it will absolutely obey me.”

Tony said with complete relief upon hearing this.

"As long as you're confident, you've probably seen plenty of science fiction movies, no need for me to tell you."

"If the machine crisis breaks out, even if we prevent it, casualties will be inevitable."

Harvey, seeing Tony's relieved expression, simply offered a reminder and didn't say anything further.

"I see."

When Tony heard Harvey mention the Omnic Crisis, his eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded.

Harvey saw that Tony seemed to have really thought it over, so he didn't say much more. He was just a little concerned and offered a slight reminder, but he himself wasn't that worried.

The fundamental reason why Tony created Ultron is that the original Tony, limited by his fragile human body, was constantly involved in dangerous frontline operations and his combat strength was severely insufficient.

That's why Tony wanted to create an army of steel and have artificial intelligence fight on the front lines directly under orders.

However, Tony now believes in the Void. As long as he continues to evolve, Tony's true form will be even more powerful than the Iron Man armor; it's only a matter of time.

When someone dismantles Tony's Iron Man armor, he may finally face real fear.

This makes Harvey somewhat look forward to the time when Tony meets Captain America.

It's hard to imagine how Captain America will react when he discovers that Tony, beneath his iron shell, is also incredibly powerful.

Harvey realized his own thoughts, calculated the time, and found that Captain America should wake up in about a year.

If Captain America were to awaken, there would be no need for Harvey to try and win him over.

Once Captain America has witnessed the wonders of modernity and the void, he will naturally seek out power if he desires it.

If Captain America doesn't contact him, Harvey won't take the initiative to do so either.

Since Captain America, having witnessed the power of the Void, did not waver or yearn to gain even greater power through faith in the Void, then even if he tried to persuade him, it would be useless.

Captain America is different from Tony. When he first recruited Tony, Tony was just an ordinary person whose mindset had just changed. He had created the Iron Man suit, a groundbreaking technological achievement, but had never seen the world.

If there's anything that sets Tony apart from ordinary people, it's that Tony is smarter and richer.

But being smart and rich weren't the key factors. The key factor was that Tony was just a genius inventor and a wealthy man who hadn't seen much of the world at the time.

Furthermore, Tony had something on his mind, and after learning that he was willing to give Pepper the opportunity to believe in the void, Tony readily agreed.

Captain America, on the other hand, belongs to the old generation, whose thinking is out of touch with modern times, and who lacks Tony's ambition to have more time to develop his talents.

More importantly, in modern times, Captain America's beloved woman has died, and he has no friends or companions.

His only friend and partner is Bucky, the Winter Soldier, and there will be more entanglements to come.

Captain America has experienced the loss of loved ones, and he doesn't have many attachments or ideals that require time to achieve.

For Captain America, immortality might be a source of suffering.

Therefore, Harvey will not actively try to win over Captain America.

However, Captain America is eager to join the Void, and he will give him a chance.

Tony saw that Harvey didn't continue the conversation, and he himself was mindful of not crossing that line, but he didn't have the power to stop him.

"By the way, Harvey, can you tell me what you've been doing in space these past few months?"

At the same time, Tony asked the question that had always been on his mind.

"Nothing much, just that the Void Cult was established, and more people were made to believe in the Void."

Harvey had originally intended to bring this up with Tony, but since Tony had asked about it himself, there was no point in hiding it, so he just casually mentioned it.

"The Void God Cult was established?"

"So that means I have a companion?"

Tony was startled by Harvey's words, his mind racing, before he asked with some excitement.

"You should refer to them as members."

"Whether they are your companions or not, I can't say for sure yet."

"You know that they have faith in the void, so I won't use too many rules to bind them."

Harvey, seeing Tony's excited expression, knew that Tony wanted to unite with other members of the Void Cult to help Earth at a crucial moment, and immediately poured cold water on his enthusiasm.

"I was attracted to you because I knew you had no restrictions."

"Does this mean that as long as I ally with them, I can get their help?"

"You can't stop my friends from helping Earth, can you?"

Tony didn't mind Harvey's demoralizing words and smiled as he replied.

He knew that the best way to get the Void Cult to help Blue Star was to directly ask Harvey for help.

However, Harvey had a very bad impression of S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as of American political figures.

Based on Tony's understanding of Harvey, Harvey would only deliberately destroy Earth if no one provoked him.

But expecting Harvey to protect Earth is by no means an easy task.

Moreover, Tony clearly remembered that Harvey had said that during the crisis in 2017, humanity would unite with many aliens to fight the enemy.

In other words, the scope of the impact will be quite large, and there will be more opportunities for cooperation.

"If you can persuade them, of course I won't stop you."

"But don't say I didn't warn you, Earth isn't their home. If you bring them here, you can't be completely sure you can keep them in check."

"This might not be a good thing for Earth."

Harvey's eyes flashed upon hearing this. He had originally intended to lure Tony into going to space, but Tony had brought it up himself. He then put on a calm expression and said casually.

"Of course I know."

"But as long as they are not without desires, then as long as we offer enough benefits, we can sway them, right?"

Tony, relieved to hear that Harvey wasn't going to stop him, sat down in a chair next to Harvey and said with a smile.

Although he joined the Void and gained the ability to evolve, making himself stronger and stronger.

However, he never forgot that while he was a genius scientist, he was also one of the wealthiest people on Earth, and making money was one of his strengths.

"Although you are very rich, money from Earth is not universally accepted in the universe."

Harvey said something meaningful upon hearing this.

"Of course I know that, compared to the powerful civilizations in the universe, human civilization on Earth is only a low-level civilization."

“It is only natural to follow the monetary system of an advanced civilization.”

“So Harvey, I have a request.”
