American comics: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Looking at the detective Tony in front of him, Colin subconsciously recalled the scene he saw in the [Time Fragment].

If we exclude the Avengers and Colin who accidentally came to this world due to the influence of the time fragment, the Tony Stark in front of him is the Tony who appeared in Stark City last.

And his almost paranoid pursuit of the truth may represent a certain meaning in itself, and it can even be understood as Tony Stark's self-rescue in his consciousness.

After all, as more Tonys appear in Stark City, it means that Tony Stark's consciousness is getting more and more dormant.

Even Brahma would not want to wake up because of his nostalgia for the reality of the dream, not to mention Tony Stark who has become a vegetative.

The power of the time gem fragments has certainly caused Tony Stark's consciousness to be insufficient to really fall into darkness like a vegetative person, but these constantly split consciousnesses have also made it difficult for him to wake up from Stark City easily.

Even if it weren't for the appearance of Colin and others, Tony Stark's own will alone.

Even if the truth is finally discovered by Detective Tony, his own power cannot change the fact that Stark City exists and wake up Tony's sleeping body in the real world.

After all, according to the picture presented by [Time Fragments], the reason why Tony Stark in this world became a vegetable is that he was poisoned by the blood caused by the palladium element in his body. Although the power of the Time Gem fragments protected his consciousness and prevented him from dying because of these palladium elements, it could not reverse the damage to his body.

In other words, once Tony Stark wakes up, he will have to face his poor physical condition.

This element that is integrated into the blood cannot be solved by modern medical means alone.

However, modern medical treatment does not work, which does not mean that Colin cannot.

"Don't worry, I will wake him up."

Colin said to the detective Tony in front of him with a firm voice, and controlled his body to fly to the sky above Stark City like an arrow from a string.

Flying over the city, Colin saw the truth of this world more clearly.

The situation in the entire Stark City is somewhat similar to the anti-world, but the scope is smaller. Under [Super Vision], Colin can even clearly see the border of the city. It is a void of darkness, and the sunlight above seems to radiate only in this city.

There is one thing Colin did not lie about, that is, he did find a way to wake up Tony Stark in a vegetative state.

The picture presented in [Time Fragment] has shown that the real Tony Stark does not exist in Stark City. This is why Colin could not find the trace of the time gem fragment even though he could obtain [Time Fragment].

Because it is not on any Tony Stark in Stark City at all.

Since it is not there, where to find it.

Of course, the way to wake up Tony is also very simple, that is, to go from the illusory consciousness world to the real world.

This is easy to say, but for the vast majority of Stark City, it should not be all Tony, this is impossible to do. As a consciousness split by the power of the time gem fragment, how can they leave this world that maintains their existence?

If they really try to leave, the most likely result is that they will completely collapse into nothingness in reality the moment they leave Stark City.

In fact, only Colin and the Avengers can really leave Stark City.

Of course, this is also relative. As people who exist in the real world, they will not collapse because of going from an illusory world to reality.

However, considering the situation of the entire Stark City, in fact, the only one who can really leave this world is Colin, who also has the fragment of the Time Stone.

And what he needs to do is to go to the real world where Tony Stark is, take the fragment of the Time Stone from him, and take the Avengers away while waking him up.

"First, the first step is to get out of this world..."

Above Stark City, Colin looked down at the city and continued to fly into the sky.

Having had the experience in the anti-world before, Colin's expression seemed extremely calm, and he came under the sun in a short time.

"So, is this the border of Stark City?"

This world is narrower than imagined. Close to the sun that constantly emits light and heat, the high temperature that is fatal to ordinary people is as warm as a spring breeze for Colin. As he gets closer, [Energy Absorption] has begun to absorb this light and heat spontaneously.

"In the sun?"

Under the gaze of [Super Vision], Colin clearly saw the 'exit' leading to the real world hidden in the sun.

"If it were someone else, even if they knew the existence of the 'exit', they wouldn't be able to really get close to it."

Seeing this, Colin's expression was a little speechless.

Luckily, he was the one who came to the 'exit'. If it were someone else, even if it was the members of the Avengers, they would have been turned into ashes by the terrifying light and heat emitted by the sun, let alone entering.

"The location of this 'exit' was never intended to let people go out."

With a silent complaint in his heart, Colin ignored the terrifying heat and fire from the sun around him, and controlled his body to fly straight to the center of the sun.

As he approached, the fire and heat from the sun became more and more terrifying, but there was no discomfort or pain on Colin's face. On the contrary, because of [energy absorption], the closer he got to the center of the sun, the more energetic he became.

Although this sun in Stark City is not a real sun, it is just a fragment of the Time Stone and Tony Stark's consciousness and knowledge. However, from these lights and heat, Colin can feel that his ability is slowly improving bit by bit.

This speed is certainly not as fast as the comic series or animation broadcast, but it is also a means of increasing strength.

"I understand now why Superman likes to move in the sun so much."

A sudden thought emerged in his mind, and at the same time, Colin's figure had already arrived in front of the "exit" at the center of the sun.

The temperature here is close to 15 million degrees Celsius, which can instantly evaporate the human beings on the earth.

However, Colin calmly stretched out his fingers and touched the burning celestial body. The moment he stretched out his fingers and touched the sun, a familiar pulling feeling instantly appeared on Colin's body, and a green light wrapped around his body and instantly disappeared in the center of the sun.

"..."

Stark City, the moment Colin disappeared from the center of the sun, the whole city instantly turned into silence.

"What's going on?"

In the temporary residence of the Avengers, Banner looked at the whih news frontline program that suddenly seemed to be paused, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"Is the TV broken?"

However, as he complained, he suddenly noticed that the expression on the face of Captain America Steve beside him became solemn.

"Did you notice it?"

Steve frowned and listened, looking at Tony opposite him, and asked solemnly.

"The sound disappeared."

Tony nodded and said with a serious expression.

"Mr. Stark, look out the window..."

Peter hurriedly shouted to Tony as he walked to the window and looked at the scene on the street outside.

Hearing Peter's shout, Tony hurriedly frowned and walked over, and then the whole street scene was clearly presented in his eyes.

The street, which was lively and even noisy a few seconds ago, now seemed silent, and the people on the street now stood still like statues, maintaining their original appearance.

"What on earth is going on?!"

"It seems that it's not just the TV screen that's paused."

Looking at the scene outside the window, Banner couldn't help but murmur.

Boom--

At this moment, accompanied by the roar of lightning and thunder, Thor's figure also appeared in the residence.

"Everyone suddenly stopped moving."

Holding the Storm Axe in one hand, Thor looked at the Avengers in the residence and said in a low voice.

He was originally rescuing electricity at the power facility, but suddenly all the workers at the scene became motionless statues.

"Not just people..."

At the window, Tony suddenly spoke while silently observing the scene outside the window.

"Even objects have stopped."

Pointing to the leaves on the street that were also frozen in mid-air, he added to the Avengers.

"So this is some kind of powerful force that has paused everything in the entire Stark City, so why are we not affected by this power?"

Looking at the strange scene in front of him, Banner raised his doubts.

Since the entire Stark City is the same, why can the Avengers survive?

"Because we are not from this world."

In the temporary residence, a hoarse voice answered Banner's doubts.

"Strange?!"

Hearing this voice, the Avengers turned their heads and saw that the figure of Dark Doctor Strange had appeared behind them at some point.

"When did you come out?"

Looking at the increasingly pale Dark Doctor Strange, Tony asked subconsciously.

"Just now."

After a faint reply, Dark Doctor Strange stepped to the bedside, looking at the motionless city in front of him, and began to have a sense of urgency in his tone.

"Be prepared, there is not much time left for this city."

As the Dark Doctor Strange's voice fell, a faint purple light flashed from his eyes.

...

"What's the situation?"

"There is a lot of bleeding all over the body..."

"Doctor, doctor..."

"Ambulance, who called an ambulance for me!"

"No matter how rich you are, look at Tony Stark, he has become a vegetable. I heard that the stock price of Stark Industries has plummeted by ten percentage points in a row..."

"At least he can use the best medical equipment to keep his body active. I heard that the cost of the ICU alone is more than 100,000 US dollars a day."

"It's great to be rich, but it's a pity that no matter how rich you are, you still have to lie in bed and can't even open your eyes."

"Have you heard that a doctor has already made a judgment that Tony Stark's current physical condition will not survive for another month. It's a pity. I like Iron Man very much."

The familiar green light wrapped around Colin's body, and [Super Hearing] continuously heard various conversations and footsteps in the hospital. At the same time, as his body got closer to the real world where Tony Stark was, the sounds Colin could hear became more and more complicated, not just limited to the hospital, and began to spread to all parts of the city.

He controlled the noisy sounds in his ears and gradually put them away. With a sense of breaking free, the green light that originally wrapped around Colin dimmed, and at the same time, the sense of alienation between him and the world also dissipated.

"Huh, did it work?"

He took a long breath and looked around.

The familiar ward layout was exactly the same as the scene he had seen in [Time Fragments] before. Looking in the direction of the bed, Tony Stark was lying there motionless.

At the same time, the fragments of the Time Gem on Colin's body also began to produce induction, which also confirmed his guess from the side.

Sure enough, the fragments of the Time Gem were on Tony Stark in reality.

He nodded in understanding and silently watched Tony Stark in front of him. Under the gaze of [Super Perspective], Colin's eyes penetrated Tony's body and cooperated with the effect of [Microscopic Vision], and easily saw the palladium elements in Tony's blood.

These conditions, which can only be detected by sophisticated equipment in modern medicine, are now presented to Colin's eyes without reservation.

"It's a bit troublesome, but it's not a big problem."

Looking at these deadly elements in Tony Stark's blood, Colin's expression did not show too much worry.

The medical equipment connected to Tony is trying its best to delay his life, but Colin can clearly see that Tony Stark's condition is not optimistic as the blood flows.

Of course, this pessimistic situation is for normal conditions.

"Since I promised Detective Tony to wake you up, of course I can't let you die so easily."

As he spoke, Colin's eyes, who were standing in front of the bed, began to show a red light, and the next second, two imperceptible hot lines in his eyes fell on Tony Stark's chest.
