Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

Upon hearing Tony's words, the four men, who had been feeling resentful and unmotivated, instantly transformed into energetic individuals with their eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.

They exchanged another glance, and this time, all they could see in each other's eyes was excitement. Especially after recalling Sherlock's notorious past, their desire to beat him up had reached its peak.

Tony, hiding behind the computer, also had a knowing look on his face.

Tony usually settles scores on the spot and never lets them linger! That bastard Sherlock actually prevented him from even entering the doors of Vought International, the company he founded. If Tony doesn't get revenge, is he still Tony?

After quietly boosting the pain feedback system to its maximum of 200% in the background, Tony kept his achievements hidden.

Fortunately, Black Widow knew Sherlock and Tony well enough to instinctively sense that something was wrong and asked Tony about it over the phone.

Why didn't you come to such a good opportunity?

"Of course I want to come! But I have a speech scheduled at my alma mater today. More importantly, I've noticed that those black-hearted maggots seem to be very interested in Little Spider lately. I think I should take Little Spider under my wing before those black-hearted maggots corrupt it."

When faced with Black Widow's questioning, Tony readily revealed the reason he had prepared beforehand. After all, he couldn't very well tell them that if he really went, given his understanding of that bastard Sherlock, once he discovered his little tricks, that bastard would definitely retaliate against him like crazy.

Let his four teammates go and let Sherlock vent his anger first. Even if Sherlock wants to retaliate afterward, the force won't be too great.

The "teammate sacrifice" tactic? Tony and Sherlock have mastered it to an incredible degree.

Most importantly, Tony wasn't lying at all. He really did have a speech today, and he really was going to Spider-Man's house. Those wicked maggots really did have their eyes on Spider-Man.

After hearing Tony's reasoning, the four people present, although they all had a slightly uneasy feeling, were ultimately suppressed by the excitement of being able to beat Sherlock up.

So much so that none of the four people present questioned Tony's motives; they even started excitedly planning how to deal with Sherlock in the communication system.

Just as they were excitedly planning how to deal with Sherlock, the roar of an airplane engine came from the sky. With the appearance of the roar, everyone's attention was instantly focused on the futuristic-looking bat-shaped airplane in the sky.

Before anyone could even take out their phone, two figures landed directly on the plane.

With a crisp sound of metal striking stone, the Justice League members controlled by Sherlock finally made their appearance. Although there were only two of them, their aura completely overwhelmed the larger number of Avengers members.

The reason is simple: Batman and Wonder Woman appeared in their full-on, strongest form!

Wonder Woman is wearing a full suit of armor with metal wings, with only her face exposed. While it may not be the most beautiful, its defensive capabilities far surpass those of her previous outfit of just a tube top and a short skirt.

Batman's look is even more exaggerated. Although his appearance is still the same as Batman in the comics, the heavy armor he wears, which looks like a tank, gives off a much stronger sense of oppression than Tony's tomato and egg-colored outfits.

After landing in a superhero-style manner, Batman and Wonder Woman didn't even glance at the four Avengers behind them before heading straight for the UN building.

Even on the way, Batman didn't forget to operate the computer on his arm to make the Batplane wait on the tarmac. Throughout the journey, the two of them gave people the feeling of being efficient, serious and professional.

Faced with the two men who exuded an aura of oppression, the captain looked at his tight-fitting suit and ridiculous little shield, Black Widow looked at her Black Widow outfit, and Falcon and Hawkeye looked at each other's rather 'rudimentary' equipment.

The four of them lost their composure in an instant.

Captain (on the verge of tears): "That damn Sherlock, that bastard, he never suffers a bit! He keeps all the good stuff for himself! He made me dress like a freak while he went off to show off?"

Black Widow (howling to the sky): "Be grateful! Mine was even worse! That bastard could have made something much better! Look at those golden wings! And look at the clothes he gave me that only make people stand up!"

Falcon (looking completely bewildered): "Honestly, looking at the equipment those two are wearing, I feel like I'm a joke."

Hawkeye (already resigned to his fate): "Compared to their equipment, I feel like we're the cute, charming, and innocent My Little Pony villains, Tony, what do you say?"

Tony: "..."

After seeing the equipment that Sherlock, that bastard, had forged for him through the surveillance footage, Tony remained silent for a long time before speaking to them over the comms.

"Honestly, folks, I have a bad feeling right now. This has nothing to do with an 'exhibition match' or who is the cute and charming villain. If we don't show some real skills, I feel like we're really going to get crushed by that bastard Sherlock."

After a pause, Tony continued.

"The kind of hammering that goes straight for the kill..."

Captain America, Hawkeye, Falcon, and Black Widow: "..."

Chapter 717 The Grand Show Begins

Sherlock had no idea how much psychological trauma his actions were inflicting on his teammates, since, strictly speaking, he hadn't broken any rules.

Putting everything else aside, just look at whether it matches the character's traits! Can you honestly say they didn't have this outfit in the comics?

Of course, even if Sherlock knew the angry roar in his teammates' hearts, he would probably pretend not to know, since ever since he discovered that Tony had tampered with the Justice League, the two sides had been 'as good as oil and water'.

Under Sherlock's control, Batman and Wonder Woman swiftly entered the UN building and headed towards the conference hall.

Unlike in the movie, this meeting was not held in Berlin, but at the UN headquarters in New York. However, the C-shaped conference room remained the same as in the movie, except that there was a thick wall behind the podium instead of glass.

After entering the venue, Batman and Wonder Woman immediately sat down on two chairs near the entrance, following the signs, completely ignoring the creaking sounds of the chairs beneath them.

After sitting down, the two remained expressionless. Batman operated the computer terminal on his arm with a blank face from the moment he sat down, while Wonder Woman simply opened her helmet and stared coldly at her table.

From the moment they entered, the two completely ignored the other people who had already taken their seats in the venue. After all, everyone present understood that although these two seats were not meant to be humiliating, they were only for the actual staff.

For these two Justice League heroes who were "dressed up" for the day, these two positions were a humiliating watchdog experience.

The members of the smaller countries who had arrived at the scene looked away from the two who stood like gatekeepers, not daring to make eye contact at all, only occasionally glancing at them furtively.

Compared to those small countries, the actions of the five great philanthropists are quite intriguing.

The representative from the US was full of arrogance, his eyes filled with disdain as he looked at the two Justice League members sitting at the entrance. He was speaking to the representatives from the UK and France in an unruly manner.

The two representatives from Britain and France looked embarrassed, but as allies, they had to force a smile while dealing with the representatives from the United States and glancing back at the two gatekeepers sitting at the entrance from time to time.

He looked utterly pathetic, as if he were terrified of getting into trouble but had no choice but to negotiate with a tyrant.

Unlike the representatives of the three major Western corporations, the Russian representatives listened quietly to the American representative's words throughout the entire presentation, but did not provide any feedback to the American representative.

It was more like eavesdropping, except that the way he glanced at the two door gods at the entrance from time to time was full of meaning.

In stark contrast, the representatives from the Chinese side remained silent, no matter how much the Americans boasted or how outrageous their claims were.

However, if you get close enough to observe the representatives on the rabbit's side, you'll find that everyone on the rabbit's side is wearing a very tight-fitting bulletproof vest under their shirts, and each person has a small briefcase next to their feet.

The rest of the five philanthropists knew that the briefcase next to the rabbit's feet was not a real briefcase, but a special bulletproof device that could transform into a bulletproof shield the size of a person in 0.1 seconds.

Unfortunately, while they knew about it, no one took it seriously. After all, this wasn't the first time the people on the rabbit's side had carried this thing; most of the time, it was just an excuse for them to secretly mock the rabbit for being cowardly.

This time will be no exception for them, but this time, the rabbits' expressions were quite complicated when faced with this mockery, which had happened more than once before.

Thanks to their alliance with Sherlock, or rather the Avengers, the Chinese side already knew about Sherlock's 'Plan of Corruption' in advance. Based on their understanding of the US, the Chinese side knew that sooner or later the Avengers would fall out with those heartless maggots on the US side.

What they didn't expect was that Sherlock, that bastard, could pull off such a big scheme, far exceeding their initial expectations, but it also represented huge profits.

The rabbit wouldn't let this opportunity slip by. In fact, when Sherlock had fully taken over the Justice League and informed the rabbit of his plans, the rabbit provided Sherlock with unexpected intelligence assistance.

Otherwise, who do you think sent the intelligence that Hydra was very interested in Wakanda and might even kidnap the King of Wakanda?

What? You're asking about the Avengers?

I'm sorry, but according to the initial agreement, Sherlock's intelligence will not be shared with the Avengers this time. Besides, those unlucky Avengers weren't allowed into the venue from the start and are currently sunbathing outside.

Sherlock was quite pleased with this, and even felt a sense of pleasure from it.

As the meeting time drew near, the seats in the venue became increasingly full. Once all the delegates were seated, the meeting on the bill concerning superheroes commenced as scheduled.

After a brief opening ceremony by the host, the old king of Wakanda took to the stage and began his passionate speech, while T'Challa, the Black Panther, stood quietly not far from the stage, dressed in a pure black suit, with his arms crossed, in a security posture.

Listening to the old king's passionate speech and T'Challa, dressed entirely in black except for his eyes and teeth, Sherlock, hiding behind the Justice League, practically rolled his eyes to the sky.

To be honest, this old man really dares to think big. Aside from the Avengers, all sorts of supernatural forces, big and small, are starting to emerge in this world, some relying on technology, some on mutation. This old man's bill directly offended the entire supernatural community.

To be honest, those who have played too much tribal politics appear incredibly naive and laughable in the context of such an international political game. If it weren't for Vibranium's sake, there probably wouldn't be a single person in the entire venue.

Meanwhile, T'Challa on the other side had a rather proud expression on his face, and Sherlock really couldn't figure out what the unfortunate thing was so proud of.

Just as the old king, standing on the platform, was speaking with great enthusiasm, an unexpected incident occurred, as expected.

In the movie, it was just a car bomb, but in the real world, it was much more exciting. The brick wall behind the podium was torn open by a huge explosion, and in the smoke, Hydra agents rushed into the venue at an extremely fast speed, and the leader was an old friend.

The complete form of the cruciate bone!

It was clear that Hydra's target was the old king, who was giving a speech on the stage. But coincidentally, at the moment the wall was torn apart by the explosion, a steel nail pierced the old king's lung.

So much so that Hydra's scheme seemed to have ended abruptly from the start. Clearly, Hydra was no longer capable of taking away the seriously injured old king, and even if they could, they lacked the means to save his life.

Chapter 718 The Monster That Was Released

Crossbones seemed to have a clear understanding of Wakanda's technologically advanced tribal civilization. Seeing that their target, the old king, was doomed, Crossbones gave T'Challa only one glance before immediately issuing the order to retreat.

From the moment Hydra blew up the wall and entered the venue to the moment Crossbones gave the order to evacuate without hesitation, the entire process took only a few minutes. However, within those few minutes, the scene inside the venue was nothing short of chaotic and uncontrollable.

The representatives of those small countries panicked and ran toward the gate the instant the explosion occurred, while the military officers sitting next to the five philanthropists at the front also acted immediately, all protecting their representatives.

The rabbit side undoubtedly had the highest level of defense and was the most orderly, while the Russian side maintained its usual hardcore Maoist defense, with almost everyone instantly pulling out various miniature pistols.

On the contrary, the three major Western companies look somewhat unsightly.

The British and Gauls hid under the table from the start, while the American representative, though in a similar situation, instantly turned to rage when he realized he wasn't Hydra's target.

Before the Hydra agents had even finished their escape, he had already pushed aside the guards and started roaring at Batman and Wonder Woman, who remained expressionless.

"Useless! You two are useless! Didn't you see the enemy coming in? Why aren't you fighting? You're just a bunch of trash, like those monsters from the Avengers..."

The 'rage' represented by the eagle was abruptly interrupted halfway through, like a rooster being choked. The reason was simple: a sharp batarang had just grazed his scalp.

"Who gave you the confidence to think we'd obey your orders? And who gave you the confidence to bark at me like that?"

Before the American representative could react, Batman's hoarse, deep voice rang in his ears. When he looked in the direction of the voice, he only saw the pale light in the eyes of Batman's heavy bat armor.

Click.

With a crisp sound of bones cracking, the arrogant eagle representative's head spun 720 degrees the next second, his face filled with disbelief.

The sudden change made the room so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Everyone inside looked at Batman as if they'd seen a ghost; no one could believe what they'd just witnessed.

In the deathly quiet hall, Wonder Woman Diana's cool and aloof voice, though not loud, was loud enough to reach everyone's ears.

“We stand up to uphold justice based on the shackles we put on ourselves with our most basic moral values, but you have taken the initiative to tear off these chains and release the monsters in our hearts.”

As Diana spoke, she stared at the old king lying in a pool of blood on the platform with an extremely mocking look for a moment, then shifted her gaze to the group of people who were still alive on the American side, her expression becoming even more sarcastic, before slowly uttering her last words.

"Who gave you the audacity?"

As soon as those words were spoken, the military officers among the American representatives finally reacted and tried to draw their weapons. Unfortunately, Batman on the other side was faster, and several batarangs accurately pierced the foreheads of the American military officers.

"Let's go, Diana. The show's over, time to get down to business."

Batman's deep, husky voice rang out, and without even glancing at the unfortunate souls with batarangs stuck in their heads, he turned and walked towards the door.
