The Era of Immortal Cultivation

"Stark, Mr. Stark!"

"Iron Man, Iron Man, look here!"

Tony Stark is a billionaire, playboy, and scientific genius. His side stories have fed countless tabloids in New York State, and now with the addition of the identity of 'Iron Man', he is simply a walking spotlight.

He actually contacted major TV stations to buy headlines and live broadcasts of the news. How could reporters not go crazy?

Moreover, this was Stark's first appearance in front of the media since the '618 Expo Terrorist Attacks.' Newspaper offices and television stations across America swarmed in.

Facing flash lights and countless microphones, Iron Man raised the energy cannon in his palm and pointed it at the noisy crowd.

For a moment, there was deathly silence, only the flashing lights continued.

‘Poof!’ A stream of ribbon erupted from Stark’s palm.

A prank, which is Stark's usual style.

Although it was a pity that the explosive topic "Superhero Stark broke through the defense and tried to threaten reporters" could not be used as the headlines later, the reporters still took pictures more energetically.

Dangdang!

Stark knocked on the table of the podium with his gauntlet, "Media friends, be quiet!"

The reporters were stunned.

What did he call us? Friends? Is this person Stark? He won't be manipulated by some super villain, right? The reporters around him are even more noisy.

"Fake! Please be quiet, otherwise I won't say a word!"

Right, this is Stark!

Stark looked around, and after everyone around him became quiet, he adjusted the microphone and cleared his throat.

"I know what you're going to ask. Which cover girl am I hanging out with? The farce at the fair? Or Stark's new energy branch? But none of that matters!

Today, I am here to announce something really big!"

The reporters were all silent and waiting for Stark's next words, but at this moment he stopped and looked up at the building above his head.

A silver figure fell from the sky, turned over lightly and landed next to Stark. He folded his arms and stood beside Stark coolly.

"Wuhu!"

The figure wearing the red and blue uniform familiar to all New Yorkers swayed between high-rise buildings, and finally landed on the other side of Stark with one hand on the ground.

"Spider-Man!"

The sound of the camera shutters at the scene was at least twice as loud as when Li Hao appeared. Obviously, as a good neighbor of New Yorkers, Spider-Man is still very popular.

After putting on the battle uniform, Peter seemed like a different person. He changed his usual shyness and silence when getting along in private, posed coquettishly, and even took photos with several reporters who were his fans.

Stark took advantage of the little spider to attract the reporter's attention and asked sideways:

"Jarvis said that the national ratings have exceeded 35%, almost catching up with the Super Bowl! Shall we start?"

Li Hao nodded, and Stark picked up the phone again.

"Today, my good friends Spider-Man and the Emperor Knight and I are gathered here to announce an unprecedented event!"

Stark easily drew the attention of reporters and TV stations back, and then started talking on his own.

"The League of Legends, an alliance dedicated to the screening, development, training and other work of superheroes, was established!

In other words, every industry has its own union, and the League of Legends is the union of superheroes!

We will be committed to serving every person with abilities who wants to be a superhero and relieve them of their worries; we will conduct a nationwide screening to attract all heroes who are willing to join the League of Legends!"

Stark paused, waiting for reporters and the audience to digest the information, before continuing:

"This is an unprecedented job and an unprecedented superhero show! We will cooperate with multiple TV stations to screen potential superpowers during live broadcasts across the United States.

The three of us will serve as judges to evaluate these heroes. Any hero who joins the League of Legends will receive an after-tax hero subsidy of at least US$80,000.

From the selected heroes, we will choose four teammates, and the three of us will form the best and strongest BIG7 superhero team in the world to maintain peace and fight crime.

I believe this can make America greater and the world more peaceful!"

Bang!

Maja Fakexia threw the remote control out and smashed the TV to pieces.

My home was robbed!

It was obviously me who came first...

Is this some kind of superhero draft?

This is recruiting troops to make it bigger and stronger!

Nick Fury can already think of the wolfish ambition hidden under this nationwide carnival of hero drafts:

What is the motivation of a team composed entirely of powerful superpowers? What do they want to destroy? What do they want to subvert?

You said you just wanted to do some heroic deeds and provide some life support for the heroes? Who would believe it?

These super-powered people plus the support of the Stark Group, the largest group in the United States...Tony, listen to my advice, you may not be able to grasp the position of Emperor of the United States!

However... this is not entirely a bad thing, at least this way my Avengers plan will definitely get more support.

Nick Fury forced himself not to lose a wave, staring at the broken TV screen with one eye, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

"Turn off the TV, Mike, we have to go!"

On a pier in New York Harbor, Ivan and his cronies were waiting for the ship to arrive.

"Führer, where are we going?"

"Texas, Houston, there are complete high-tech industries there." Ivan changed his body shape, disguised as a classic white man with blond hair and red neck, and said quietly:

"It's time to make the Lone Star Republic great again!"

......

After the press conference, Stark ignored the media interviews, had a light meal with Li Hao, and then returned to his quiet laboratory, leaving only the hot discussion from the outside world.

He still has something as big as League of Legends to do.

"Jarvis, prepare for the operation!" Stark took off his upper body clothes, revealing his fair skin, lay on the experimental table, and gave himself an injection of anesthesia.

"Sir, this is crazy! I..."

"Don't worry. I've also read Dr. Otto's research notes. There's no problem. Let's start the experiment."

As soon as Stark finished speaking, he fell into a drowsy sleep under the influence of anesthetic.

Under Stark's command, Jarvis controlled the robotic arm, accurately pierced Tony's neck with a tiny probe, and injected portions of nanometal structures into Stark's body.

These structures will be reassembled at Stark's seventh cervical vertebra to become a microcomputer.

Then, it took out a golden multi-section metal structure more than a foot long, and attached the centipede-like imitation spine to Stark's back.

The artificial spine instantly pierced a large number of small probes, pierced into Stark's muscles, connected to his first and second thoracic vertebrae, and was also linked to the microcomputer on the cervical vertebrae.

On the outside of the body, the artificial spine has reserved a large number of interfaces, which can become a medium for the interaction between the armor and Stark, and can also be connected to mechanical products with different functions, such as mechanical arms, mechanical tentacles...

After waking up from the chaos, the anesthetic had not yet worn off. Stark could not speak or move his hands, but he silently called out in his heart:

"Jarvis?"

"Sir, I'm here!"
