[Comprehensive Yingmei] I cover this earth

Chapter 93 The White Whale 32

"It seems that you are already familiar with Star Nest?" He looked up at Bruce's holographic projection, "How many of them are there?"

"Very few," Bruce said. "There are only three...two people I know of. One is code-named Warrior, and the other is code-named Pope."

His sudden change of words was a bit strange, Tony stared at him, but couldn't see any clues from his expression.

Maybe just a slip of the tongue?

"Oh, Samurai." Tony raised his chin, "Little Darth Vader with rainbow eyes, I remember him."

"Rainbow eyes?" Bruce asked a little confused.

"It seems that you haven't seen his eyes?" Tony, who has been instilling knowledge about the Secret Star Church by Bruce, has finally found his home and rhythm. The retired vigilante also has something he doesn't know. "I suggest you watch it the next time you meet him. It's really... how do you describe it? It's beautiful and curious, dreamy and disgusting."

Bruce: ...

Most people don't seem to be able to understand the effect of the simultaneous appearance of the adjectives beautiful, curious, dreamy, and disgusting, but Bruce, who has seen many church-related things, can understand it at once.

In fact, to him, those dense translucent golden tentacles of the pope are quite dreamy and disgusting...

"The samurai is a little bit better," Bruce said.

In his memory, the child who hadn't seen him for three years was always silent, but he always arrived in time in critical moments.

He is too powerful, but in terms of strength, he can even be comparable to Superman. If they really fight, they really don't know who will win.Moreover, the samurai has an advantage that Superman can't match——

He has no weaknesses.

Perhaps the only thing that requires him to restrain his power is the problem of pollution, but obviously the power of the samurai itself is too strong. In most cases, he can easily kill the enemy without praying to the outer gods for power .

But at least, the samurai will only appear when dealing with enemies and cleaning up pollution. He never seems to interfere with the internal affairs of the church, nor will he intervene in the affairs of Star Nest.

He is like the best tool man in the world, always on call, never talking nonsense, and never asking why, he will only unswervingly perform the task-drawing the knife, swinging the knife, and retracting the knife.

No one understands what he is thinking, and he has no interest in understanding others, just like a precision machine that has been completely dehumanized.

"What you really need to be careful about is the Pope."

Bruce said in a low voice.

The moment the code name was spoken, his tone changed very slightly. If Tony hadn't been listening carefully to what he said, he might have missed it.

"You have a grudge against him?" Tony raised his eyebrows. "That name doesn't sound like someone to mess with. He's a politician?"

"There are too many things involved about him, maybe I will tell you in detail next time I have time." Bruce said, "Stark, he is the person who should be the most vigilant in the entire Secret Star Church-don't believe He, don't trust him. You can trust the Church of the Secret Star, or even the Star Nest, but never believe anything that the Pope said from a personal standpoint!"

……

After hanging up the phone, Tony sat quietly on the sofa for a while, sorting out his thoughts.

Although he has received a lot of information these days, even a lot of information is beyond his comprehension, but the strange thing is that he is unusually calm.

He'd thought he'd be anxious, but he wasn't.He was anxious, but not in psychopathic pain.

Maybe it's the "blessing" that Alice said before that is working?

There are too many unreasonable things, and the priority level of this matter is not so high.

The biggest trouble at the moment is the crimson earth core hidden underground in New York. It is something that truly threatens the survival of all human beings. It seems to be a time bomb that they can't resist, and it can bring them destruction at any moment. .

Just when he was about to search for some ancient books without electronic data, his cell phone rang again.

Tony took a look, raised his eyebrows and picked up the phone: "Happy? I'm busy, I'll give you ten seconds..."

"Boss!" Happy didn't wait for Tony to finish speaking, and said in a voice as if he had just been struck by lightning, "You, did you see the news? Are you okay?"

"What news?" Tony suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"You...you don't know yet?" Happy's voice trembled a little.

Tony called up the holographic screen smoothly, and saw the first entry of the current hot news search at a glance.

The moment he saw the entry, he was slightly taken aback.

#Alice Milia confirmed dead#

……

Confirmed... Died?

"What the hell..." He couldn't react for a while, and asked his own artificial intelligence, "Is Alice still in the room?"

"Miss Alice's vital signs are currently stable," said the artificial intelligence.

Tony:  …

"This media really has no bottom line. It's a mess of fake news, just wait for the lawyer's letter!" Tony said with a frown, and then his eyes saw the second hot search term.

#Alice Millia Tony Stark#

Tony: "?"

It's none of my business!

Confused, he clicked on the relevant entry, checked the relevant news, and walked towards Alice's room while reading.

Then his eyes widened.

The news content is not much, probably the post-disaster rescue team found Alice Miria's body fragments and a large amount of blood in the ruins, and after DNA testing, it was confirmed that it was Alice herself.

In other words, Alice Milia was dead.

She really died in this sudden attack and disaster, not even the whole body was left behind.

This news directly detonated the entire social network, Alice's fans were all dumbfounded, and none of them could believe it was true.After the reporters knew that Alice was dead, they immediately shifted their targets. On the one hand, they went to Alice's agency to try to get a last wave of traffic. What a reaction.

This investigation really led them to find out. According to the official information, Alice Milia's family has only one adoptive father, and the adoptive father's name is Tony Stark.

This really blows up the entire social network.

Alice Meglia died in a catastrophe with unknown causes that even alarmed the Avengers. She died at her own first concert, which was enough to shock the world, but after her death, people actually Only to find out that she turned out to be Iron Man's adopted daughter.

What kind of dramatic and explosive news is this? !

For most people, the simultaneous rush of sadness, regret and shock is enough to make them unable to react in a short time.

Happy's voice was still ringing, he was at a loss and was almost crying: "Boss, is this true? Alice..."

"Stop!" Tony was so dizzy from his noise, he suddenly felt a little confused, so he quickened his pace, walked to the door of Alice's room, and opened the door with a snap.

Alice was peeling an apple at the moment, with half a dragon fruit in her mouth, and the red juice dripped into a sweet line on her snow-white chin.

Noticing someone coming in, she looked up, swallowed the dragon fruit in her mouth, and said, "Mr. Stark? What's the matter, you look a little... anxious?"

Tony: "..."

"Fake news," he said to Happy, deadpan.

Then he hung up the phone with a snap.

"So, have you read the news?" Tony walked to Alice, picked a piece of kiwi fruit from the fruit plate, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed.

"News?" Alice looked at him suspiciously.

"Say you're dead." Tony shrugged, "Aren't you going to clarify?"

"Oh..." Alice suddenly realized, "You said this news. It's okay, it's just what I want, let them think I'm dead."

Tony: "? Huh?"

Tony thought he had heard wrong.

"The main reason why I became a singer was to lure out the crimson earth core." Alice said calmly, "Now that I have found clues about the crimson believers, there is no need for me to continue this high-risk behavior , so of course I ran away, and I can still make their impression of me stay at the most beautiful highlight moment."

Her identity is a ticking time bomb, it's better to escape as soon as possible.

When Tony heard Alice's explanation, he was so angry that he almost suffocated himself.

"No...wait a minute, let me clear my mind." Tony rubbed the center of his brows, trying to calm himself down, instead of yelling at the little girl, "You're only 16 now, right?"

"...Oh, almost." Alice blinked.

"You still have a bright future, your life has just begun, and you—just negate your own existence so lightly?" Tony said in disbelief, "You live just to hold this concert? "

"..." Alice was silent for a while. Although she didn't speak, her eating speed didn't slow down at all.

For a while, the room was so quiet that only the sound of Alice chewing was left.

After swallowing it with a grunt, Alice added: "Of course not, I live to eat more delicious food."

Tony: "..."

He knew that he should buy more antihypertensive drugs and keep them with him.

"What the hell is going on here?" He rubbed his eyebrows and said, "They said they found your body fragments?"

"Oh, those..." Alice pointed to her left shoulder, "You also know that flesh and blood are conserved. I have a mouth here, and of course it spits out all the flesh and blood in the mouth. The people outside should have picked up the flesh and blood."

Tony: "..."

Although outrageous, it is not unreasonable.

"Will it cause you any trouble?" Alice asked with some concern, "It seems that the matter of you adopting me has also been exposed, and we should cancel it before the concert starts..."

"Stop!" Tony was very upset, and when he heard Alice say this, he interrupted her directly, "Swallow me back what you are going to say next, I don't like to hear it."

Alice shut up aggrievedly.

After a while, she said again: "Oh, Mr. Stark, what are you worried about, Alice Melia's social death is a good thing!"

This means that a Mystery believer who can use his own influence to incite the masses has completely withdrawn from the public eye.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the current beliefs are enough, and Hawthorne doesn't want to expand the believers' plate to avoid blind faith, he wouldn't directly make Alice lose her status as a singer.

For superheroes, this should far outweigh the disadvantages.

Tony immediately thought of this layer.

Alice doesn't just represent her alone. Behind her is the Star Nest and the entire Secret Star Church.

It is obviously unreasonable for them to have too much influence and public control. Therefore, it is not a bad thing for Alice Meglia to retreat from the public view so easily-on the contrary, it is a good thing.

But what is the price for Alice?

She has worked so hard for so long, but she hasn't even had a decent concert, and she has completely faded out of people's sight.

She once vowed that her dream is to sing to people all over the world.

And now, she dropped everything so easily?

Tony was about to say something when his cell phone rang again.
