Marvel Gashapon Maniac

It was a person with a purple-sweet-colored face, who turned back to look at Loki with a wicked smile on his face.

Loki suddenly felt a chill run through him. Could this be the legendary aura of a king?

1. As usual, I'm asking for all sorts of things.

2. It's about time to finish the first volume; we can't keep padding it out. Time to get into the Avengers storyline.

3. Origami Master's outfit is so stylish! It makes me want to go back to playing mobile games. As a Tohka fan, I've also fallen for that.

4. I personally prefer girls with short, neat, or cool hair, especially those with black stockings or pantyhose paired with shorts—they're so sexy! Am I hiding my submissive side?

5. Chapter Two may be updated today.

Chapter 75 The Role of Games

"The demo version of the new game has been released." Peter smiled happily as he looked at the demo download icon on his official website.

Aside from being Spider-Man and working odd jobs, Peter usually spends his free time playing games.

Most importantly, playing games won't affect your studies, because most students will be in GTA, and they can even choose any time to go to the school in the game to attend classes.

This has now evolved into an awkward situation where the teachers in the game don't teach as comprehensively as the teachers in the school, leading to a large number of top students skipping school to study in the game.

In response, some professors even demanded that the school ban students from playing games on campus, but this was rejected by the principal for unknown reasons.

Peter took out his gaming helmet, intending to try out the new game.

His helmet was a birthday gift from Fuyou, a special edition that allowed him to play released games for free.

Peter initially thought the gift was too expensive and didn't intend to accept it, but Fu You said he was very familiar with the people in the game department and that it was a gift from someone else.

"I never expected Fu You to know someone from Stark Industries. I wonder which manager sent such an expensive gift," Peter thought to himself, holding the helmet.

Peter didn't dwell on the issue for long before connecting to the game.

The perspective changed from black to white, and a screen-like object appeared in front of me, but I didn't immediately transform into a character or enter the plot.

"Huh? This has never happened before?" Peter looked around at the pure white space in surprise; this was the first time he had ever seen anything like this.

Many illusory images of scenery flashed across the screen in front of him, and then a white light enveloped his vision, causing Peter to close his eyes involuntarily.

When the bright light faded, Peter opened his eyes. He felt that he had entered the game character and could move his hands and feet.

"I can move now, let me see the scenery... Wait, what's this?!"

Peter had just opened his eyes and was about to look around when he suddenly realized that he was surrounded by many women.

This does sound like a stroke of good fortune, but the fact that all the women around her have no faces instantly turns it into a horror movie.

Peter was so startled that he jumped back and rolled on the ground, instinctively making a motion as if to shoot out spider webs, but then remembered that he wasn't Spider-Man in this world.

The surrounding scene suddenly began to fluctuate like the static on an old-fashioned television, and then the voices of a man and a woman rang out.

“We’re in trouble. I can’t access his memories.”

"We need to pull him out."

As the two voices conversed, Peter's vision went white again, and this time when he opened his eyes, he saw an unfamiliar ceiling.

"Are you alright?" A woman standing next to where he was lying came over and asked.

"It's like eating a pizza and finding a fly that shouldn't be there... I mean, it's really bad." Even though he was dizzy, Peter still managed to use his talent for chattering and rattled off a whole bunch of things.

In the following plot, Peter learns that he is playing the role of a modern assassin, and that he just used a machine called "Animus" to enter the memories of his ancestor.

Peter didn't feel anything about it, after all, he was already used to playing other roles in the game.

Normally he's Peter Parker, when he goes out he's Spider-Man, in GTA he's Franklin, in Gotham he's Batman—what hasn't he seen? Playing an assassin is a piece of cake.

Peter then reached an agreement with the people in the laboratory according to the plot, and entered the ancestor's memories again.

This time, they arrived at a cave. Peter temporarily lost control of his body and switched to a third-person perspective, beginning to watch the story unfold.

The ancestral memories I entered in my own storyline belonged to an assassin named Altaïr, whose mission seemed to be to stop some Templar Knights.

Considering the Crusades context when the game was released, Peter felt that the game would likely face criticism from a very Christian audience.

They hadn't gone far when they reached the interior of the cave. Suddenly, one of the assassins exclaimed, "Look! It's Zhuge Liang... cough cough. Look! It's the Ark of the Covenant!"

Peter wasn't ignorant of history; he knew about the legendary Ark of the Covenant and couldn't help but look at it with curiosity.

The object on that high platform was a golden rectangular cabinet, just like the legendary Ark of the Covenant.

"Is that the legendary Ark of the Covenant?" Peter looked at the object with some shock.

After all, games used to be viewed through a screen, and no matter how much they were hyped up, they were still just pixelated blocks.

But in virtual reality games, you see these legendary things directly.

“The Ark of the Covenant doesn’t exist; it’s just a legend,” the assassin beside him retorted.

Because he was caught up in the story, Peter's perspective switched to third-person view again, but instead of looking at the plot, he was thinking about something else.

"Since the Ark of the Covenant is a legendary object, what's inside once it's opened?" Peter couldn't help but wonder.

Peter then realized that it was just a game.

Even if it can be opened, it'll probably only contain some game items.

It was only then that Peter noticed the plot: the protagonist, Altaïr, ignored the warnings of his fellow assassins and planned to go down and kill the Templars.

The scene then ends, and Peter gains control, momentarily stunned.

"Wait? Aren't you assassins? You just walked past like that, all openly and honestly?" Peter was completely bewildered, feeling his impression of assassins crumble.

……

"Hey, Fu You. Your new game is on TV." Fu You, who was happily torturing Bane at home, suddenly received a call from Tony.

"Huh? The TV?" Fu You asked, puzzled, and instructed Jarvis to turn on the TV and play the program.

On a TV program, a middle-aged man with a receding hairline sat in a chair and talked eloquently.

“The games Stark Industries creates are teaching people how to kill, and if left unchecked, they will become a major problem.”

This man is the leader of an anti-virtual reality gaming organization, similar to animal rights groups and feminist martial arts associations.

He is an opponent who argues that virtual reality games will disrupt social harmony and stability, and urges people not to buy them.

"To be honest, your new game has definitely given them a lot of opportunities," Tony said, looking at the man on the screen who was talking animatedly.

"Although you added health bars and explanation boxes to help people distinguish between reality and virtuality, the assassin killing people is indeed a bit too much."

"Well," Fu You smiled dismissively, "I also have my own purposes for releasing this game at this time."

"Purpose? I'm curious." Tony raised an eyebrow.

Every time Fu You showed this expression, it meant he was very proud, which meant he had some kind of plan.

"Oh, that's a secret." Fu You chuckled mischievously.

1. As usual, asking for something (lying down).

2. The company trip is on Saturday and Sunday, and I can't skip it. I probably won't cancel, but I'm unsure when I can keep up with my boss's schedule. Hope you'll bear with me. Am I just a workaholic?

3. If there's no response to your application to list your product, then consider other options first.

Chapter 76 Pioneer Loki

"Director, the Cosmic Cube experienced a fluctuation earlier, and we are recording the information," the experimenter reported to Egg.

“We turned off the power, but it turned on by itself and is dissipating energy.”

Egghead scoffed, "Isn't our goal to extract energy from cosmic magic?"

The surrounding researchers were busy organizing the previous data, trying to figure out what was going on.

Egg looked around but didn't find any of the agents he had arranged.

"Where's Patton?" Egg asked.

"Eagle Eye? It's up there."

Following the direction, Egg spotted Eagle Eye crouching on the second floor, looking down.

Egg walked up and came to Hawkeye's side.

“I remember I told you to watch the Rubik’s Cube, so why are you up there?” Egg said, looking at Hawkeye who was squatting there.

"Because you can only see far from a high vantage point," Hawkeye replied calmly.

"Then why are you squatting outside the computer room?" Eggman pointed to the room used for virtual reality game training not far behind Hawkeye and looked at Hawkeye suspiciously.

Hawkeye, true to his reputation as a licensed agent, remained calm and composed upon hearing this.

"Because I just finished training," he said matter-of-factly.

“I need to consider limiting your ‘training’ time.” Eggplant emphasized the word “training.”

“I think we need to intensify our training to prepare for dangerous situations,” Hawkeye said, shrugging.

"Alright, let's get down to business. Did you see who moved the Tesseract?"

Hawkeye shook his head: "I'm sure no one has touched this Rubik's Cube."

"Then why is this happening?" Eggman asked, puzzled. The Cosmic Cube had never had this problem before.

"Could it be related to that Fu You's warning?" Hawkeye suddenly asked, interrupting Egg's thoughts.

This is what's recorded in the archives. Fu You once warned Lu Dan not to study the Cosmic Cube too much, because if he insisted on studying it, some bad things might happen.

Lu Dan was really annoyed by this. He always left things unsaid, but now that someone else had only told him half the story, he really wanted to know the rest.

However, Fu You remained silent and smiled at this.

“We can’t rely on aliens and time travelers to maintain peace, Agent Patton,” Eggman said, frowning.

"We need our own technology, and for that we need the energy of the Cosmic Cube."

Hawkeye did not refute this; he understood.

There are more and more bizarre and wonderful things happening on Earth, and various supernatural phenomena are occurring frequently.

S.H.I.E.L.D., which maintains peace, cannot rely on superheroes and aliens forever; it also needs new technologies and forces.

Egghead whispered in Hawkeye's ear, "Don't forget, we still have to deal with internal problems."

The "hard-boiled egg" refers to the Hydra remnants lurking within S.H.I.E.L.D.

Only a very small number of people were informed of this matter by Egg, and he is currently unable to determine who Hydra is and does not intend to take any action for the time being.

“But perhaps we’ve overcomplicated things regarding the Cosmic Cube.” Hawkeye looked at the blue cube. “It might not be because of energy leakage. The cube is a door to the universe, and if it’s a door, it must be able to be opened from both sides, right?”

As Hawkeye spoke, the Cosmic Cube emitted a deep blue wave.

"The fluctuations have started again!" the researcher exclaimed in alarm.

Egghead looked at Hawkeye strangely: "You learned prophecy? Which game is it from?"

"If I knew how, I wouldn't have waited for you upstairs."

Just as the two were speaking, a beam of blue light shot out from the Cosmic Cube, the dazzling light causing everyone to close their eyes.

A black man with long black hair and a black trench coat appeared out of thin air in the laboratory, holding a strangely shaped scepter in his hand. He slowly raised his head and smiled at everyone.

"Sir, I suggest you put down your weapon." Eggman sensed that the person in front of him was not a kind person, but he still spoke up to dissuade him first.

"Heh." With a cold laugh, a beam of laser light shot out from the scepter and struck the two of them, forcing them to scatter to the left and right to dodge the attack.

"Kneel before me, mortals, I am Loki, King of Asgard."

The newcomer was Loki, who came as the vanguard of the invasion to seize the Tesseract in order to open the portal that would summon his army.

"Loki?" Eggman exclaimed in surprise, looking at Loki in disbelief. "You're Loki, the god of mischief from Asgard?"

"Oh?" Loki looked at Eggman with some curiosity: "You know me?"

"Thor said you get beaten up by him every day, that as a mage all you can do is use illusions, you can't fly, and you can't even beat a Valkyrie, and also..."
