Of course, Queen Maeve's speculation was purely based on her observations and had no concrete evidence. However, she believed there was a possibility that the mysterious screen selected individuals of similar speed levels for meaningful comparisons. Including A-Train would have made it blatantly obvious who the slowest was. But beyond the identity of the fastest superhero, Maeve was also intrigued by the strange screen itself. Who created it and why could only she see it? Given the sensitive content about Homelander, Maeve chose to investigate quietly but found no clues over several days.

### Real World
"Haha, another hundred RMB just came in," Jiang Cheng grinned, pleased with the notification on his phone. By now, Jiang Cheng had figured out the pattern of short video earnings. Each video earned around a hundred RMB, sometimes more, sometimes less, but never by much. Each video took one to two minutes to watch, meaning Jiang Cheng could comfortably earn five to six thousand RMB an hour, which was equivalent to his previous monthly salary in just two hours. It was incredibly satisfying.
"Let's keep going!" he thought excitedly as he continued to watch short videos. After a few other videos, Jiang Cheng came across another American comic short video titled, "The Coolest Poser Gets the Worst Beating: The Joyful Jeep is Not So Joyful."

### Afghanistan
With a lighthearted BGM, the image of Tony Stark, the coolest billionaire playboy, appeared on the screen. Standing in front of military generals, Tony spoke confidently and flamboyantly, though the original audio was cut, making it impossible to hear his speech. When Tony signaled with a gesture, several missiles were launched, splitting into numerous smaller projectiles that hit a mountain, covering it in smoke and sending shockwaves.
Tony, arms outstretched, looked supremely confident. The return trip in a convoy of military vehicles was equally impressive. Inside the vehicle, Tony joked around, and though his words couldn't be heard, the soldiers' laughter indicated he was the life of the party.
However, things took a sudden turn.

### Marvel 199999 Universe
Boom! Several missiles struck, flipping the vehicles and igniting a battle. In the chaos, Tony was thrown from the car, injured by an explosion. He lay helplessly on the ground, blood pouring from his wounds.
Tony Stark was thoroughly stunned by the spoiler. Those were missiles exploding right in front of him! He worried the alternate universe version of himself might have died in the blast. The idea was unacceptable for someone as confident as Tony. Despite wearing a bulletproof vest, the shrapnel had clearly penetrated, causing a potentially fatal injury.
If not treated immediately, the bleeding alone could be lethal. With all the soldiers killed and the vast desert surrounding him, rescue seemed unlikely. Tony, knowing the military and relevant departments' operations, realized it would take hours for help to arrive, by which time he would likely be dead.
Tony's heart sank as he considered that the video might show his death. His focus sharpened on the assassination attempt. It was clear that the missile that injured him was a Stark Industries weapon. This revelation was a severe blow—someone within his company was selling weapons to terrorists. Tony realized there was a mole, likely a high-level executive, involved in these transactions.
Angered by the betrayal, Tony shifted his attention back to the assassination itself, determined to uncover the mastermind behind it.
