Chapter 169: Resort Island!
'What were you doing when Batman of the past and God of today was both the richest man and the superhero, and he played the whole world?' This is the road to rise that you didn't expect, a miracle at only 18 years old! ’
Time magazine sold the best sales in the magazine's history with Rocky's men's look in a suit as its cover.
Rocky's return is not a surprise to most people, who believe that he is omnipotent, almost divine. When the government cowered and was unable to do anything to the Zitarians, it was he who stepped forward with the heroes of Wrath of the God of War. He's no longer Batman, he's God, a new title, maybe sometime his title will be preceded by War!
Having banished Thanos and his army, the world has once again returned to a semblance of calm. All of a sudden, Rocky was a rare place to have his own leisure time to spend a vacation and catch a fish on the beach.
"Natasha and Jennifer have been urging you several times, aren't you really going to go back to the company to deal with things first?"
Filicia, who had watched Rocky fish for nearly a few hours, finally couldn't help but ask.
"It's enough for the company to have them, and haven't I already merged the resources of the Hellfire Club with the company? With Emma and Serena's help, I'm sure those things don't need to be dealt with too much, right? ”
Rocky looked intently at the calm sea, without raising his head or eyelids, and said lightly.
"Even if it's not a company business, Dr. Aldridge has already approached you several times." Felicia rolled her eyes, frustrated at the lazy personality that Rocky had become when she returned.
"Isn't he yet successful in his research? And I told Ivan and his son to build a special armor based on the body of a desperate warrior, isn't Fawkes now also joining the research? It's still Edman metal! How could they possibly complete this plan like that? Rocky asked, frowning. Today, his research team is among the best in the United States and the world. Think of Fawkes who built Batman's gear, Ivan Vanko and his son who built energy reactors and armors, Aldridge who researched desperate warriors, and his assistant Maya Hansen. These people are super-first-class scientific geniuses in various fields, not to mention Samuel Stern, a biological scientist who has successfully transformed into a 'leader', Bruce Banner, a gamma scientist, and Dr. Lizard Connors, plus Susan in addition to Reed.
These people can be said to be a set of scientific research teams under him, involving various fields, and when they are combined, they can create a perfect whole. Rocky's plan is for them to create an army comparable to the ordinary soldiers of the God's Domain!
"He didn't complete the plan, but at the moment their research funding is insufficient, and you need to sign the grant application." Felicia has now become the most qualified assistant by Rocky's side, and he can really be described as a former employee and a girlfriend after others. Being a girlfriend to her level is not bad in Western countries.
"You tell Natasha that I approve the funding for the research he is applying for, but you have to monitor the progress of their research. Although I am a patient person, I am not a fool. I'm not going to put my money into a bottomless pit! Rocky waved his hand and said.
"Then I'll tell her." Felicia nodded, then got up and walked towards the newly built villa on the edge of the beach.
Rocky hummed and continued to stare intently at the sea. Not long after Felicia left, a 'mermaid' swam in from the side of the sea, and when she saw Rocky, who was concentrating, her eyes flashed with a hint of urgency. Then I saw her dive to the bottom of the sea, shuttling back and forth in the almost crystal clear water. After a while, she swam in front of Rocky, suddenly jumped out of the water, picked up a handful of water and sprinkled it on Rocky, who was caught off guard, causing her to burst into laughter.
"Hela! I've said it several times, don't bother me fishing!! Rocky gritted his teeth and wiped the water off his body, "Also, didn't you say you were going to swim to that island?" Why not? ”
"Halfway through the swim, I realized that there was nothing fun, so I turned back!" Hela shrugged her shoulders playfully and said, "Your fishing now is nothing more than calming your mind, is the power gem really that powerful?" Can influence your mind? Logically speaking, its energy is not as strong as the energy of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube! ”
Rocky couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, "Don't mention the Power Gem, if I hadn't found the answer to the Cosmic Cube from Thanos' memory, maybe I would have been kept in the dark." It turned out that there were still a few small spars missing from this thing and fell into other planes, so it's no wonder that some of the abilities were lost. If I can't piece it together, I won't be able to absorb the energy. ”
"Isn't there a substitute for the Power Gem and the Psychic Gem (the gem that Thanos gave Loki on his scepter)? This is an Infinity Stone, known as the strongest object in the universe. Hela's eyes widened and she asked incredulously.
"No way!" Rocky shook his head slowly, "I set those two gems into my mask, causing it to be mutant. Now ......," he said, pointing to the center of his brow, where three scarlet, blue, and bright orange were set in three colors, shining and tiny gems, "Now that the mask has melted into my body, almost inseparable from my body, I can't absorb any energy from it. On the contrary, you also need to worry about being affected by their energy all the time! ”
"You put the gem into your mask? So what did you work so hard to snatch the Infinity Gauntlet for? Hela asked, surprised.
"Isn't it impossible to take off the gem? It is only temporarily lodged on the mask, to hide from those who want to find it. Rocky threw away the towel that wiped his body, threw the fishing rod and stood up, stretched his waist and said: "It won't be long before I have to look for those lost spars, now that Thanos has been defeated and entered the depths of the universe, if he transmits the news of the Infinity Stones on Earth to other galaxies, then the entire Earth will undoubtedly be in danger!" Until then, I must be given the ability to protect myself! ”
Hearing Rocky's solemn words, Hela nodded with a serious face, "Then you have to be careful yourself, if you really can't do it, I'll bring Asgard's army to you!" ”
Rocky couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Do you really think that if you call that Uncle Odin grandpa, he will be willing to hand over Asgard's army to you?" You've got to get past your aunt first! ”
"An-la! Although Aunt Sol doesn't have a good temper, she is still quite easy to talk! Hela waved her way and said nonchalantly.
When Rocky heard this, a hint of banter flashed in his eyes, "You dare to call her aunt?" Aren't you afraid that she will teach you a lesson? ”
"What's the name of your aunt if you don't call it? Seniorly, she is indeed my aunt! Hela asked, pretending to be ignorant. At this time, she had no idea that behind her was already standing a tall figure with a delicate face completely blackened.
"Alright! Don't ask me for help! Rocky waved his hand and left with his hands behind his back with a smile on his back.
When Hela saw him like this, she felt strange and wanted to speak, when she heard a voice of gnashing teeth behind her.
"I'm your aunt's seniority, I'm really sorry! You stinky girl dare to call me aunt, am I as old as you say? Damn it! I can't spare you!! ”
With a thunderbolt of lightning, Hela shrank into the water in a panic, and then saw Thor's muscular, sexy body rushing into the water like an elegant mermaid, chasing Hela's figure.
Rocky laughed at the scene, shook his head and walked to the edge of the villa, under the huge coconut tree planted.
With a 'bang', he saw a coconut being thrown from the tree at Rocky's feet, and he looked up to see Diana lying on the tree in a sexy bikini drinking coconut water.
"You really know how to enjoy it! But don't drink all my coconut water! Rocky touched his forehead and said depressedly.
Diana drank the coconut water from the half-opened coconut, burped, and said, "You're really stingy, aren't these things planted here for drinking?" But then again, you bought this island and tossed it around for so long, you can't just use it as a vacation place, right? ”
Rocky nodded when he heard this, and said with an inexplicable expression: "Of course it's a vacation, otherwise what do you think it is?" ”
"Really? How do I feel that this island has what you're looking for? Diana asked with a suspicious look on her face.
Rocky shook his head without changing his face, "Are you thinking too much, this place was originally intended to be a place to travel." ”
"Alright! Even if I think too much, you go and do your job! Diana waved her hand and continued to drink her coconut water.
Rocky looked down at Diana deeply, then turned and walked to the other side of the island.
Diana glanced up at Rocky's back as he turned around, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
This guy suddenly said on a whim that he wanted to build a vacation place, and he chose this island. What was there on this island that he wanted? ’
Rocky didn't know what Diana was thinking, but he knew a thing or two about what she was thinking. Her suspicions were right, he was indeed looking for something on the island. He felt that there was some kind of energy contained in this island, and this energy could resonate with the Power Gem and the Mind Gem, so it was undoubtedly telling him that somewhere on this island, there was an Infinity Stone scattered here!
It was for this reason that Lodge chose this place for his vacation and bought the entire island.
Due to the large size of this uninhabited island, it is not possible to explore it in a day or two. In order not to alarm the others, Rocky would explore a little bit of the island's interior each time, trying to find some clues.
And today, that energy resonance reappeared, making Rocky seem to have found a precise direction. PS: Ask for recommendations, ask for collections!
