for god

With a flash of soft light, Tony unknowingly changed a location, crossing the distance of many countries to reach the other end of the earth, and it only took a second.

Tony looked around in amazement and confusion. This is... a courtyard that can't be seen at a glance?No, there are also high mountains covered by clouds and mist and waterfalls sliding down from the high mountains. Under the waterfall is a green pool of water. When the flowing water reaches the stones under his feet, it is already extremely quiet and small. At the same time, there are gorgeous flowers blooming on those trees, all kinds of beautiful animals are playing among the trees and flowers, and now he is sitting under a roof that looks like a whole piece of white jade or ivory, and even his feet are exquisite. The hand-carved floor is also inlaid with colorful and complicated patterns.

Tony's eyes circled from the beautiful scenery behind him and landed on the person opposite the low table—huh? !Bald?what happened?This style of painting doesn't match at all!Tony woke up suddenly from this dreamlike beauty.

"Have you watched "The X-Files"? I like it very much, especially the episodes of the first few seasons. There is a very classic line in it, 'No one, no government, can judge the truth'. You live here, and you should feel better than I am more profound and clear, so do you believe in the credibility of the government?" Vishnu smiled and walked in from the tall and beautiful door, holding a gorgeous gold tray with one hand, which was filled with various delicacies and drinks , he waved his hand lightly, and placed delicious drinks and snacks in front of Saitama and Tony.

After walking out of Vishnu, Tony focused his eyes on the other party, and in an instant he understood that what those tourists and believers said was true, no matter how many adjectives you use, it is useless, it is an indescribable It's so beautiful, and you can't even fully watch this beauty, it feels really touching and regretful, as Vishnu's voice sounded, Tony felt that all floating thoughts settled down, stretched out in an extremely orderly manner, The answer he wanted to find was already in front of his eyes, but he was covered by chaotic thoughts before.

Tony involuntarily began to think about what Vishnu said, while Saitama was slowly peeling a banana, as carefully as a fragile baby, Tony looked at Saitama strangely, not understanding why he was so careful. "No matter what, human beings cannot do without society, and if there is a society, there must be a government... What are you doing?"

Vishnu chuckled and didn't speak, Saitama was a little slow before realizing that Tony was asking him. "Oh, my power is too strong, so I need to be careful, ah, the government, at least I still believe it when I receive relief money."

"What?" Tony frowned in disbelief. "Are you actually receiving relief money?"

"That's right, because I'm a hero, so I can't do other jobs, so I have no money." Saitama ate bananas contentedly, and he couldn't usually afford fruit.

"Does the Japanese hero organization not pay any wages at all?" Tony subconsciously wanted to ask Jarvis to check it out, and then stopped in frustration, showing a dry smile. "I thought it wasn't so poor here, they still publish the list of heroes online, and make peripheral items for sale..."

"What list?" Saitama was at a loss, picked up another mango and tasted it slowly.

Tony blinked his eyes wordlessly, then turned to look at Vishnu who was eating the delicious creamy ice cream next to him.

Satisfied, Vishnu hung the smooth ice cream on the tip of his tongue and tasted it carefully before swallowing it. Noticing Tony's gaze, he showed his usual compassionate smile to the believers who came to ask for help, and temporarily stopped eating . "Haven't you read it carefully? The hero hierarchy here is completely voluntary, and it doesn't force them to obey orders completely. Heroes can voluntarily choose to act or not to act."

Tony was surprised and took out his mobile phone, connected to the Internet and started to check the detailed information. Saitama was still outside the incident, and probably didn’t remember what Tony said just now. Therefore, it is also destined that Saitama will be the only one with him when he registers as a hero in the future. Vishnu was very clear about these things when his disciples went, so he didn't mean to change Saitama's future route.

After a while, Tony put down his phone angrily and turned off the network again. "It seems that I made the same mistake again. I just saw the word registration and began to think that it must be the same thing..."

"People will make mistakes, and this will never be avoided." Vishnu said gently. "Introspection is a good thing. You can avoid self-blame as much as possible, but it's just as much as possible."

"Why do the gods let humans make mistakes? If you remove those..." Tony looked at Vishnu in confusion.

Vishnu's smile remained unchanged, and he nodded slightly. "Yes, the gods can indeed remove that part, so after removing the wrong part, what do you think is left?"

Tony froze for a moment, hesitated. "correct?"

"Just like the writings of your great scholars, if there is no error, how can there be correctness?" Vishnu suddenly had a feeling that he would teach people wherever he went, although guidance and measurement are important. One of his nature. "You just don't even know the definition of right, and is this right? In the same way, you can't know happiness without pain, you can't feel joy without sorrow, you can't feel possession without loss, and you can't feel without desire." Progress forward... wait, darkness and light will always exist together, creation and destruction, ah, only my Lord can do this."

"I should really learn about philosophy and relativity." Hearing this somewhat familiar tone, Tony was a little taken aback, but soon he laughed with a bit of relief. "I knew that the agreement was ridiculous, but I almost stood on that side."

Vishnu raised his eyes and glanced at Tony. His eyes contained divine power and could torture the hearts of others. "Then why do you want to be on that side?"

Tony's heart throbbed. "Because I am self-righteous and feel that I have made a wise decision... I don't think the Avengers can stand on the opposite side of society, and the government represents society to a large extent, and is against society. Can the Avengers still exist? Most Avengers are not good at politics, and I tried to help them avoid it, but I jumped into another quagmire..."

Vishnu showed a compassionate and benevolent smile again. "You have good intentions, but there are always things that are beyond your control, so it goes back to the original question, do you think the Avengers and the Justice League alone represent all superheroes?"

Tony was stunned for a few seconds before laughing, the corners of his eyes were still moist, and he let out a breath. "No, I can't represent the Avengers, I'm just one of them, and we're just a part of many superheroes."

"Then are you ready to refuse?" Vishnu asked again. "You also know that there are many people with the name of heroes. What do they value? They will definitely choose to sign the agreement for profit or power or popularity. Then you will be wanted criminals."

Tony laughed happily, he was no longer afraid. "Then let them come. Heroes always have to fight. As long as the Avengers are all together, there is nothing to fear."

Vishnu turned his eyes and asked deliberately. "Then have you thought about another method, you first discuss the treaty, revise it and then sign it, once you sign it, the government must also stand at the front and speak for you, when the hero fails to rescue the people in time, you can't just be blamed It's the duty of a hero."

Tony was silent for a while before speaking slowly. "Yes, I thought about it, the people are now incited to throw all the responsibility on the heroes, forgetting about the inaction government and who the real culprits are... But how can the heroes stand by when the people are trapped What about next to it?"

Vishnu lowered his eyes and smiled slightly. He didn't ask Tony any more, but asked Saitama instead. "What do you think? Saitama."

"Ah?" Saitama on the side was already satisfied when they were talking, and now he is basking happily in the sun. "Uh... right?"

Vishnu continued to eat ice cream leisurely, but didn't speak again, apparently asking Tony to chat with Saitama.

Will Tony be sorry, he asked with a smile, the kind that smiled brightly. "Saitama, why are you a hero? For whom?"

"Me?" Saitama rested his head on the back of his hands, leaning against the cushion, looking very leisurely and comfortable. "Well, you can be it if you want. If you have to say it for someone, it's for me."

"Myself?" Tony picked up a snack and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Yes, I also introduced to others that I am a hero out of interest." Saitama smiled a little cutely.

"For fun?" Tony licked his icing fingers. "Sounds like the child chose a dream?"

"Yes, my childhood dream was to be a hero." Saitama nodded.

Tony was a little dumbfounded. "Almost everyone has such a dream, but few people can achieve it. Are you satisfied now?"

Saitama gave a rare serious thought before answering. "I have no idea."

"Why? Didn't you get the interest?" Tony was puzzled.

Saitama scratched his cheek in embarrassment again, and said a lot of thoughts, which is extremely rare. "The evil forces in this world seem to never go away. After I became a hero because of my interest, the world still hasn't changed in any way, which means I haven't brought any impact to society. I don't feel sad about it or anything. "

"But I have a trouble now. My feelings are disappearing day by day. I can't feel fear, tension, joy, and anger. Is it because I have gained strength and replaced the most important things in people? ? In the previous battles, my chest was always full of various emotions, anger, anxiety, and fear, but now I can solve them with one punch." Saitama was still calm when he spoke, sometimes with a faint smile .

"I came home safe and sound every day, started to wash my hands, and now when fighting monsters and monsters, there is no such thing as a collision of souls, but, I just... regard being a hero as an interest, so, as long as I I feel satisfied, that's enough." After Saitama finished speaking, his eyes remained unmoved, as if ruthless, and his smile became a mask.

Tony inexplicably felt a chill in his heart, and couldn't explain why. "So you don't need other people and this society?"

Saitama thought about it. "Sometimes when I look at those weird people, I wonder if they are 'disappointed with society? If I make a wrong move, I'm afraid I will become like them too.' Such things, so I also remind myself to restrain myself , But why do it for others? I didn’t become a hero because I wanted to be recognized by others, but because I wanted to be a hero, and that’s enough.”

Suddenly, the chill in Tony's heart was swept away, and some other feelings surged. For the first time, he looked at Saitama's face very seriously and remembered this hero firmly. He probably understood that Vishnu asked him to get acquainted with Saitama The reason is that this is a very open-minded, tenacious and unique hero. "You've refrained from living on the dole, my God! At first I thought you were masochistic. Are you going to join the Avengers? I promise the salary is high."

Saitama let out an 'ah' and immediately rejected Tony's invitation. "I want to be in this city."

"That's a pity, but I can visit you in the future, right? By the way, buy a few buildings here." Tony sighed exaggeratedly to show his disappointment.

"Whatever, there are not many people living here anyway. But you don't need to buy it, because this is a ghost town." Saitama smiled nonchalantly.

Tony's words faltered for a moment, and then he was confused. "What? A ghost town?"

"Yes, this place has been abandoned and is no longer used as an ordinary residential area. It is empty everywhere, but there is no need to pay rent, so I came here. Originally, I was the only one living here, but now there is Shinu and his best friend, ah, by the way, where is your best friend, Vishnu?" Only then did Saitama react to this question.

Vishnu was smiling and pouring a large glass of milk ice cream on the linga, and replied without even raising his head. "He will be back soon, and I invite you to come and get acquainted with him then."

The corner of Tony's mouth twitched, probably thinking of what Linga represented, with a very funny expression on his face, he silently put down the ice cream in his hand.

Saitama, who didn't know anything, smiled and nodded. "OK."

The lingam was completely covered by ice cream, and a little melted liquid dripped down the part representing Yoni. Vishnu still smiled and put his hands together, chanting softly until all the ice cream disappeared.

"What are you doing?" Saitama asked curiously.

With a twisted smile on his face, Tony silently turned his head and pretended to look at the scenery.

Vishnu put Linga next to him, and said while stroking the top of Linga while smiling. "Oh, nothing, I'm just giving some ice cream to my best friend."

Hearing this answer, Saitama was obviously even more curious. "That... is that something like a magic teleportation array?"

Hearing that Tony had already suppressed his laughter and began to tremble all over, Vishnu suddenly smiled mischievously. "Forget it, this is exclusive to my best friend, and I can only connect to him."

Saitama was disappointed and asked again. "Then what you were reciting was a spell?"

"That..." Vishnu deliberately prolonged his tone, and answered after a while. "no."

Saitama let out a disappointed 'ah' again. "I thought it was like in the comics, so what are you reading?"

Vishnu's expression turned soft, and his smile became very soft and pious, he said softly. "I'm just praising my Lord, my best friend, my companion."

"A person? Ah, God?" Saitama asked.

"Yes, he is my beloved, where my heart is." Vishnu's expression was full of love like never before.

"Love of Vishnu." Tony finally calmed down, but his expression was slightly gossip, and he blinked at Saitama. "Great Lord Shiva."

Saitama was full of question marks. "It sounds more like describing a lover? But you say it's a close friend?"

Vishnu smiled and didn't answer, but his eyes were full of affection that could not be ignored.

Tony held back for so long, and finally couldn't help asking. "In the myth, did you and your - best friend ever have a child?"

Saitama let out a cry of surprise. "Your best friend is a woman?"

Vishnu's smile disappeared for a moment, and then recovered immediately, he said lightly. "no."

Saitama didn't understand even more, and Tony wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Vishnu. "Did you forget how long you disappeared in New York?"

Disappointed and sensible, Tony stopped his gossiping thoughts, put his palms together and thanked Vishnu, and then there was another flash of soft light, and he disappeared from here.

Saitama gasped again. "This is really convenient, I can only run to fight monsters, it takes a long time, ah, I didn't expect it to be night, you are so bright here, I thought it was afternoon, then I should go back. "

Vishnu thought of Saitama's running posture, didn't comment, and smiled lightly. "Okay, remember to bring a gift."

Saitama thanked again with a smile, and easily picked up the heavy bamboo basket with one hand and left.

So only Vishnu was left in this vibrant and gorgeous courtyard. He silently looked up at the crescent moon, and unconsciously stroked Linga with his hands. He didn't know what he was thinking. In the end, he and Linga also disappeared. In the courtyard.
