"Oh, you're back?"

Tony Stark greeted Ethan with a look of surprise as if he had just seen him.

But Ethan had been standing here for a while, and it was probably impossible for the others to see him because they didn't notice it with their backs to them, and Tony Stark, who was facing them.

There were also many people present who were sensitive and even vigilant at all times.

For example, Ada, who is always on the guard, Logan, who has very sharp facial features and an amazing sense of smell, and Harpy, who always faithfully fulfills his bodyguard duties - this thing just happens to be standing next to Tony and can see Ethan.

"Is this done? Did you see Thor?"

"I've seen him, and I've been talking to him for a while. Thor would love to come to Earth to see it, but there's been a lot going on in Asgard lately, and he'll need to travel to put down the rebellion. ”

Tony didn't expect that the god of thunder in Norse mythology would actually have such a thing, and going to the front line to quell the rebellion seemed to be a topic quite far from him, although he was a weapons dealer, but in fact, Tony was more like a flower in a greenhouse, and most of the time he was immersed in research work.

Even now that he has become Iron Man, and even after many battles himself, he has never been exposed to such things.

The impression of the topic of pacifying the war comes from entertainment products such as movies, and all that comes to mind are some more exaggerated 'artistic' episodes.

"It's a shame, I miss that guy. ”

Regardless, he won't be able to see Thor anytime soon, so Tony immediately throws the legendary Thor aside, and then beckons everyone to continue drinking and eating barbecue.

Through this period of contact, coupled with Logan and Laura acting as intermediaries, Tony already knows what kind of people are in Ethan's new team.

The reality is that Pepper Pepper uses her excellent communication skills to ask about these people, and Tony just has to stand by and listen.

With examples like Arthur, Diana, and Logan in front of him, Tony wasn't surprised that no matter how strange a figure appeared among Ethan's companions.

So when he heard that Serena was a vampire who had lived for more than six hundred years, his first reaction was not to feel fear or disgust, but to be curious about a humanoid creature that relied on blood to sustain life, and he wanted to understand how vampires could stay alive with blood.

Ethan's appearance has made him understand that many things cannot be perfectly explained by the current science, but he is still accustomed to thinking about various things with scientific thinking and perspectives, or he is also trying to understand many mysterious things from a scientific perspective, and he feels that once he succeeds, he will be able to step into a broader field.

And the mummy that has lived for more than 3,000 years also makes him curious, but Immorton has now been completely resurrected, and he and Ansuna are no different from ordinary people, after learning this, Tony thought of Ethan's original promise, but he controlled his emotions well.

However, it wasn't Selena or Immorton who really surprised Tony in this group, but Annette and Evelyn.

He couldn't figure out what kind of role these people played in Ethan's small team.

Through some small talk, he learned that Annette is a scientist, she once assisted her husband in creating a terrifying virus, she has a high level of attainment in related subjects, and she also has a level of understanding of some slightly related knowledge, that is to say, this is a researcher, and it seems that she is working in logistics in Ethan's team.

Shirley, as her daughter, should be an incidental giveaway, and Tony doesn't pay much attention to it except that she thinks the little girl is cute, and she is more obedient than Laura when she was a child.

As for the Evelyn siblings and O'Connor, he couldn't figure out what it was to do, but it was Ada-Wang who had paid a little more attention.

Evelyn is a very cute woman, and because she is not wary of Ethan's friend Tony, she has long revealed that it was actually an accident that she waited for others to get on the ship.

Ida was different, this one was personally invited on board by Ethan. As far as Tony knows, Ethan has actually only invited two people to join his team: one is Logan and the other is Ada.

Others, such as Arthur and Diana, were either entrusted to follow him on adventures temporarily, or they simply ran around and went home when they had had enough.

And Loki is because of the relationship between the god king Odin, so he followed Ethan's side in the name of exile.

Don't look at the many people around Ethan, but most of them are not brought by Ethan on his own initiative, so Tony is very curious about Ada, who was invited.

The most important reason is that even he Tony Stark has never received an invitation from Ethan!

Even if Ethan invited him to join, it would be impossible for him to abandon his huge family business and follow him through strange worlds.

But his refusal to join and not receiving an invitation at all are two different concepts, and Tony definitely can't accept being compared.

His attention caught Pepper's attention, and based on previous contact, Pepper just gave a comment: "Don't underestimate this woman, I feel like she's the same kind of person as that Natasha Romanoff agent!"

Tony instantly understood: this thing is an elite agent or super spy like Black Widow!

"How did you come up with the idea of recruiting an agent to join?"

"Sometimes you need people like that. Ethan ignored Tony's disdainful gaze, skipped in front of the many drinks, and opened a can of Coke for himself: "And I choose a partner, do you know what the most important thing is?"

"What is it?" Tony was curious about what Ethan's criteria were for selection, and by the way, to see what he didn't meet the requirements?

"Pleasing to the eye!" Ethan gave his answer as he sipped his drink, "My partner, of course I'm going to choose the one that pleasing to the eye." ”

He would never make a mistake for himself, and if he was annoyed by a person he saw, he would not let that person board his ship anyway.

Don't look at Arthur and Loki as if they were forced to give themselves, but the premise is that they can accept these two people, otherwise he will choose to refuse no matter how good the benefits are. If Odin had wanted to throw Hela on his ship, he would never have agreed.

Tony obviously thought crookedly, he turned his head to look at Ida not far away, this elite spy usually attaches great importance to dressing up, and knows very well what kind of clothing can best show his temperament and figure, so Tony directly thought of Ethan's pleasing eye in a certain aspect.

"If that's the standard...... What's going on with Logan?"

"Huh?"

Ethan immediately reacted to where Tony was going, and he could only shake his head speechlessly, not even bothering to explain.

How did he explain it? Couldn't he say, 'It's not what you think!', but how did that feel weird? Not to mention that he really didn't mean that when he invited Ada? As an honest man, Ethan never lied!

The gossip was almost over, and the two of them gradually moved away from the crowd and stood in a slightly remote corner to get down to business.

"I am now certain about the resurrection of your parents, but there is no guarantee that it will be successful, and I don't know what the side effects will be. ”

Ethan's previous attempts were in other universes, and he was not sure if the spell would cause any trouble in this universe, so in order to avoid Tony's high expectations, he decided to pour some cold water on it.

"I'm not a hot-blooded young man, and I can guess what might happen. ”

Tony is not young anymore, he knows how to think calmly, not to mention the resurrection of the dead, something that he once couldn't even think about, if he really wants to do it, no matter what happens, it is not surprising, if it is very simple, Tony will feel that something is wrong, he will wonder if he is dreaming.

"You don't have to worry too much, even if it doesn't work out this time, we can look forward to the next time. ”

Ethan really wasn't worried at all, even if he couldn't solve this problem in the cinematic universe, couldn't he go to the more anime world? He didn't believe that those weird worlds couldn't solve the problem of resurrecting a dead.

So the real purpose of this time is to find the souls of Howard Stark and Maria Stark, as long as the souls of the two are found, even if they can't be resurrected directly this time, and even the soul can't be brought back, as long as the soul is determined, there is infinite hope for the future.

After telling Tony about his plans, Tony also felt that there was nothing wrong with Ethan's plan, and he had considered it comprehensively enough, and then he just needed to find a suitable place to hold the conjuring ceremony.

In order to avoid angering some of the powers of this world, or suffering from the backlash of special rules, it is better to find a special place to hold the ceremony.

"What kind of place is a good place?"

"I'm going to ask the Ancient One of Kama Taj if she knows of the attached spaces that are more closely connected to this world. ”

Such a small world relies on this universe and has a close enough connection with this universe that it will not run over and find that it cannot connect to the underworld of this world.

And because it is relatively independent of this world, after something goes wrong and the others run away, it is not easy for the other party to find the information of themselves and others from such a place, so as to avoid being hunted down or counterattacked by special rules.

Tony couldn't help much with this kind of thing, so he could only let Ethan toss around, and at most he could help prepare the items that Ethan needed.

Just as the two of them were discussing what they needed, a golden circle of light suddenly appeared in the open space next to them, and a bald woman in a blue-black robe walked out.

It was none other than the Ancient One mage that Ethan had just mentioned.
