The Death Knell

"I bought this, please give me some change."

Accompanied by fire and a loud clang, the red and gold battle clothes fell next to Squirrel Girl.

Tony is also a nocturnal animal with strong phototropism. He used to always find open bars or nightclubs in the dark and go in to spend money.

He had just come from afar at a high speed, and perhaps he had not seen the whole development of the matter, but a little girl was kneeling in front of the cashier and crying, what else could be the reason?

Isn't it just that there is not enough money?

It just so happened that Tony might be short of many things, but he was not short of money. He flew into the supermarket and slapped a hundred-dollar bill on the counter on the spot.

At the same time, he also discovered that something was wrong with this supermarket. Although it really existed in the current dimension and the products looked correct at first glance, they were actually full of loopholes.

The simplest thing is that there are actually many items endorsed by Captain America in Wilson's Supermarket, such as instant noodles, BBQ, Stop the Elf, etc.

It's also imitated here, but the key point is forgotten.

That is, Deathstroke launched the Space Navigation Project the day before yesterday, and the real Wilson Supermarket put on the shelves a batch of products for space use yesterday, such as instant nutrition bars, space anti-UV cosmetics, spacecraft emergency repair kits, etc. On the most conspicuous counter, available for purchase.

Tony called this Deathstroke's last mercy, because it was actually recycling earth currency and helping people exchange it for useful space supplies.

When the economic plan they imagined is launched and all the earth's currencies become useless paper, then people should know why it is called mercy.

Closer to home, these space products that should be newly launched on the shelves are not available in supermarkets today, let alone space products with Captain America endorsement ads.

Iron Man is not a detective, but he has Jarvis. The version of the program installed on the suit is not as powerful as the one in the Stark Industries headquarters building in stand-alone mode, but it is more than enough for playing the game "Finding Trouble."

No matter how the enemy knew about Wilson's Supermarket, it was obvious that he had not been there in the past two days and was unaware of the latest changes.

So Tony used eye tracking technology to silently give orders for the suit to scan the entire supermarket to check for weird customers and clerks.

A few seconds later, he seemed to be waiting for change with a calm expression, but in fact he was ready for a fight.

The Ark reactor of the nanosuit began to operate at high power, and the floating cannon on the back began to prepare for firing at the same time. The radar locked on every target in the supermarket, including the Squirrel Girl on the side.

Because Tony is a little unsure now, whether this squirrel girl is real or not, is there a possibility... that she is also a fake created by this dimension, and is part of a trap used to entrap him?

"Iron Man, you are my savior!"

Squirrel Girl stuffed the five coupons back into her wallet, hugged Tony's legs, and wiped her nose and tears on the beautiful paint surface, because at the critical moment, a man stood up and saved her dignity.

Yes, it is a very honorable thing to be treated by someone, and it can completely offset the embarrassment of your own expired coupon!

Tony almost hit the squirrel in the face with a palm cannon, but the armor just tested the composition of Squirrel Girl's body fluids and confirmed that she was genuine, so there was no fratricide.

This function of the nano armor was newly developed by Tony after seeing Deathstroke's strangulation ability. Technology can indeed analyze the composition of matter through physical contact.

Patting the girl on the shoulder and gesturing for her to stand up, Iron Man looked at the ferocious-looking clerk behind the checkout counter:

"I'm talking to you. I need some change. The air in your store is not very good. It reminds me of the last time I went for a ride in Mexico, and ended up eating white powder on the border."

"No change...please wait."

The clerk took a few deep breaths and seemed to have other plans. She turned around and wanted to leave.

But Iron Man's sense of humor was limited, and Tony had no intention of waiting. Almost at the same time as the clerk turned around, he raised his hand and fired a palm cannon at the back of the other person's head.

Seeing a large amount of black slime exploding from the pretty female clerk's head, he became more sure of his idea, turned around, and fired up all of a sudden.

The micro missiles on his body, the wireless floating cannon on his back, the palm cannons on his hands and the main cannon on his chest were all firing at different targets.

All the other customers in the supermarket also had problems. They had the same appearance as humans, but when scanned by the suits, they were all some kind of unknown monsters. At this time, they had begun to show their fierce looks, twisting and showing their amorphous bodies.

Fortunately, although they look like they have high physical defense, they can actually be killed. As the person who invented the nuclear bomb in Earth 40K, Howard said that the more powerful the explosion, the better.

Tony obviously listened to his father's words in this regard. At least he did not purchase Hammer Industries' "ex-wife" missiles, but instead developed a matching weapons ecology.

Heat waves, bright lights, shock waves, and roaring noises swept through the poor supermarket and enveloped everything in smoke.

Ten seconds later, Tony came out with his arms around Squirrel Girl's shoulders, and broke his heart to her as if educating his daughter:

"This supermarket is fake, a physical illusion. You can think of it as a stage set. Have you ever been to Hollywood? Girl, that's actually what happened. What I killed was not people, but some monsters."

"Well...I see." Squirrel Girl stuffed a handful of pine nuts into her mouth, chewing to calm down: "So...my coupon didn't really expire, right? That bad cashier lied to me?!"

She's more focused on her coupon issues and doesn't seem to care much if Iron Man kills someone.

"Definitely not. If nothing else, we all know who the real boss behind Wilson Supermarket is. Based on the relationship between you and me and Deathstroke, ah, think about it."

The speechless Tony twisted his mouth, raised his mask and winked, but did not rush to leave the vicinity of the supermarket ruins:

"Actually, even if you don't have coupons or money, if you go to Deathstroke, he will definitely make arrangements for you, because opening a supermarket is just a game for him."

There are many similar game venues, and Tony doubts whether he knows them all, but one thing is obvious: Deathstroke has long lost interest in the limited matter that exists on the earth.

"Ah, I know, but using coupons is what I insist on. That's what I became a superhero for!"

Knowing that the coupons had not expired and that she was not qualified as a coupon expert, Doreen cheered up and nodded. Then she clenched her fists, raised her face, and shouted out her belief.

"Don't become a superhero for such a random reason!"

In response to such an unprecedented speech, Tony covered his face with a very painful expression. He took off the hand on his fat daughter's shoulder and gestured randomly in mid-air, as if he was having an epileptic seizure.
