Laura's Beautiful Journey

"On Friday, start the analyzer and restore the 3D monitoring backup."

Tony stepped forward and took the damaged soul gem from Laura's hand.

Along with the sound of mechanical transmission, a base rose from the ground, and the soul gem was transferred from Tony's hand to the base.

Three rays cast from the ceiling converge on the gemstone, and the light flashes frequently. This is a structural analysis of the gemstone.

The three-dimensional 3D projector located in the corner also started working, perfectly restoring everything that had happened in the laboratory before Tony's eyes.

The entire communication between the soul gem and Laura is at the soul level. To the outside world, the "dialogue" between them is just a change in energy and a flash of light.

It would be fine if it was someone else, but Tony was not an ordinary person. He soon discovered that in the reappeared scene, the soul gem seemed to have a specific frequency in both the ups and downs of energy and the flicker of light, as if it were another form. Morse code in general.

"So, what did you two [talk about]? Can you tell me?"

The gem couldn't speak, so Tony could only focus on Laura, who looked worried not far away.

Laura, who came back from her thoughts, glanced at Tony, and after a while, she said after careful consideration:

"Honestly, I don't know the specific situation yet."

"Then just give it a brief summary, just roughly."

Tony folded his arms on his chest, his eyes bright.

"To put it simply, this may involve a crisis of unprecedented scale. Thanos' act of eradicating half of all life in the universe with a snap of his fingers is not on the same level as this possible disaster."

Laura looked into Tony's eyes and said this.

"call---"

Tony let out a long sigh, then slowly closed his eyes.

He is thinking about feasible countermeasures, even if he still doesn’t know what this possible crisis is, what it is caused by, and what the consequences will be.

Laura had made up her mind and started investigating the matter after returning. First, she would find the coordinates of Vormir, and then she would find the soul gem of her world and have a good chat.

Immediately afterwards, she turned on her perception ability to the maximum level, firstly to confirm the status of each gemstone, and secondly to observe Tony's physical condition in this world.

In the perception, the energy of the four sealed gems is stable and in good condition. Even the soul gem on the base, which has a cracked appearance and all its light has converged, has not actually "died", but is undergoing its own transformation at an extremely slow speed. repair.

When the perception came to Tony in this world, Laura's expression became more solemn.

If the Tony in her world was in good health, slightly above the average level, due to long-term use of various medicines tailor-made for him by the Croft Group's Biopharmaceutical Research Department, the Stark in front of him was It's a bit bad.

The life signal was as weak as a candle in the wind, and there were old wounds all over his body, with the chest in the most severe condition.

No shrapnel was found in the body. It should be that Dr. Wu really used his superb medical skills to help Tony take them out. After using the new element reactor, there is no longer the worry of being corroded by toxins. Now the original physical reactor It was even replaced by a nano-reaction core.

But even with the blessing of various high-tech life-sustaining technologies, the injury that created Iron Man is now slowly killing Tony Stark, as if fate and the Chosen Son were fighting. It was a joke.

Laura sighed in her heart, and then withdrew her extended perception. She already understood the general situation.

Even if the Tony of this world did not die in the final battle as Iron Man, according to what she observed now, if there were no other treatment options, Tony's life would come to an end within five years.

This is the helplessness of a mortal, even if this mortal has a huge amount of wealth and masters the most advanced science and technology on earth today.

Stark, who was involved in the incident, must also know about these things, so the 3D projection video of "Love You Three Thousand Times" that Tony left to little Megan was probably prepared by him himself.

"Hey, Tony, can I borrow your smart butler?"

Laura walked to a virtual projection operation interface and spoke.

Stark opened his eyes. Being interrupted so suddenly in his thinking would make anyone feel uncomfortable, let alone someone who doesn't have such a good temper.

"No! Turn off the projection UI on Friday!"

"Okay, Mr. Stark."

The light curtain in front of Laura flickered slightly and then disappeared. Tony, who was looking unhappy from behind, came up and was about to ask this visitor from another world what else he wanted to do.

"you..."

As soon as he started talking, Laura, who was standing where she was, suddenly appeared in front of Tony and pointed a finger between his eyebrows before he could react.

A moderate and peaceful energy was quickly transmitted from Laura's fingertips and spread, and Tony immediately fell into coma without even humming.

Although he lost the control of his master, the nano-armor in his body still quickly covered his whole body under the control of the smart butler Friday, and then he raised his hands to give Laura a shot.

"Friday! Stop!"

Pepper's voice came, and the smart housekeeper who was preparing to counterattack the guardian immediately stopped, then started the battle armor thruster, and took the unconscious Stark back to the safety door.

Behind Tony, Pepper, who was wearing a rescue suit, looked past her husband and looked at Laura, who still kept her fingers stretched forward, and said:

"What do you want to do?"

Laura took back her right hand, and then spread her hands in front of her body, indicating that she meant no harm.

"Pepper, you should know better than me what kind of condition Stark's body is in. I don't need to tell you what the consequences will be if you continue to waste your brain day and night, right?"

Hearing her words, Little Pepper's body shook violently, and then he opened the armor mask without hesitation.

"Do you know how to treat Tony?"

Hearing this, Laura nodded in the other party's eyes of expectation, hesitation and disbelief, and said:

"In my world, my Croft Group is the most important partner of Stark Industries, and the Biopharmaceutical Research Department provides the safest and most effective treatment plan for Mr. Iron Man. The leader is also yours. Old friend - Dr. Maya Hansen."
