Chapter 258. Wine God's Curse

Although, deep down, Tony wished he could drag the council members who made this decision out of hiding, one by one, and place them on the frontlines of the battlefield, forcing them to experience everything that the Avengers had endured. But right now, the nuclear warhead is incoming and the entire city of New York is in peril. So, despite Tony's countless thoughts of punishing the council, he must first resolve the crisis of the incoming nuclear bomb before he can act on those feelings.

"Sir, I must advise you that, with the current remaining energy of Mark 8, it is highly unlikely to be able to stop the incoming nuclear warhead."

As an artificial intelligence, Jarvis's words are already adequately polite.

In reality, even with a fully operational Mark 8, there was no option but to evade the nuclear warhead. It was, after all, a weapon of mass destruction, not something that could be easily neutralized by Tony's suit of armor.

"I know."

Tony replied, his voice calm as he took control of his armor and lifted off. Under his helmet, his expression was resolute.

If New York was going to be saved from the nuclear warhead launched by the Council, someone had to step up and divert it.

Tony didn't see himself as a self-sacrificing person, but in the face of the danger posed by the nuclear warhead, he had no choice but to put himself and his armor on the line to protect the city and its people. Tony had an idea of where to take the warhead, even though it was a place that may take him away from everything he knew forever.

"Sir, shall I contact Miss Pepper?"

Inside the helmet, Jarvis asked.

"Might as well."

This may be the last minute of his life, and Tony doesn't want to leave with regret.

With the nuclear warhead in hand and wearing the Mark 8 armor, Tony flew at high speed towards the portal created by the Tesseract. The radiation from a nuclear explosion would be massive, and in order to prevent it from reaching New York, Tony's only solution was to allow it to explode in space and minimize the impact on the city.

"Pepper, pick up, Pepper ..."

Tony muttered to himself while controlling the direction of the nuclear warhead's flight, trying to reach Pepper, but it seemed as though fate was playing a cruel joke on him. Jarvis was unable to make contact with Pepper.

"Jarvis."

"I'm here, Sir."

"Leave a recording for me ..."

Taking a deep breath in silence, facing the incoming portal, Tony was about to say something.

Pat, pat --

At that moment, he suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder from beside him.

'How is that possible? I am currently controlling the nuclear warhead in mid-air.'

The words in his mouth stopped abruptly, and Tony's face showed an expression of disbelief. He turned around and saw that the immortal from Penglai was flying parallel to him in the same speed.

"You did well, now my turn now."

Even in the rapid flight, the [Drunken Sword Immortal] still had time to take a sip of wine. He lifted his hand and gently patted Tony's shoulder. As a result, Tony involuntarily released his grip on the nuclear warhead. When Tony stabilized his armor in mid-air, he saw that the Immortal had stepped on the warhead and was rushing into the portal without a second thought.

.....

"What the hell happened, Tony!?"

The last scene was unexpected and caught everyone off guard, including Fury within SHIELD, who witnessed Tony separating from the nuclear warhead he had been controlling.

"The immortal stepped in and stopped me "

Under the helmet, Tony's expression was also a little dazed. He had made plans to sacrifice himself.

"The Immortal?"

Fury asked, his expression becoming serious as he heard Tony's reply.

If it really was the immortal, then they should have been able to successfully escape from the explosion of the nuclear warhead.

.....

"Is this the Chitauri spaceship?"

Stepping into the portal with a nuclear warhead, the [Drunken Sword Immortal] felt relatively calm.

Being a clone, he didn't need to worry about his own death. Even if he was hit by a nuclear warhead, they would only lose one of his clones.

Gently shifting the trajectory of the nuclear warhead with a step, it was the safest approach to use the warhead to detonate the spaceship, but the [Drunken Sword Immortal] wasn't sure if the spaceship detonated with the warhead would count as a reputation achievement for the true body. If not, then all his efforts in rushing into space would have been for nothing.

The nuclear bomb hit a giant metal worm and caused a violent explosion, which formed a huge explosion in space.

Ignoring the explosion caused by the nuclear bomb, the [Drunken Sword Immortal] gazed upward at the massive spaceship in space and, with a loud shout, joined his hands together and unleashed the character's most powerful move while channeling all his internal energy.

'[Wine God's Curse]!'

.....

"So, you failed?"

Somewhere in the vast universe, a huge figure on a throne questioned.

The surviving Chitauri leader lowered his head and spoke with fear: "We underestimated the strength of Earth, especially that man who wields a flying weapon. He single-handedly destroyed our strongest space battleship. To challenge them would be nothing but seeking death."

"Is it?"

Standing up and looking at the universe in front of him, the figure replied in a low voice, "Unfortunately, the earth is already on my list."

.....

"Seven golden ratio steamed dumplings!"

Taking off the scarred helmet on his head, Tony looked at the streets of New York full of debris, especially the dilapidated Stark New Energy Building. His expression was somewhat helpless.

"I just finished rebuilding not too long ago."

"Thanks " Reaching out and took the steamed dumplings [Shell] pushed out, Steve thanked him, then turned to comment, "You might as well revamp the design of the building."

"I don't think there is any problem with the design I made."

Raising an eyebrow and picking up a steamed dumpling to eat, Tony retorted.

"This place...?"

Banner's expression was a little odd as he scanned over the morphing fast food truck's shape, especially the small, tech-savvy fast food restaurant.

After the Battle of New York, the group was in desperate need of refreshment and, at Tony's suggestion, found themselves in this simple fast food truck turned restaurant.

"This is a transforming food truck that I modified specifically for the owner."

"To be honest, Stark, your aesthetic does leave a lot to be desired." Sweeping across the scene in front of her, Natasha couldn't help but speak up.

Thor: "What is this food and why is it so delicious?!"

[Reputation points from Thor Odinson +100]

[Drunken Sword Immortal]: "Where's the wine, where's the wine?"

Tony: "Something wrong with my aesthetics?"

Thor: "One more!"

Hawkeye: "Me too."

[Drunken Sword Immortal]: "Get me a drink ..."
