Chapter 180 - An unexpected journey through time (two in one)

Seeing the incredible man with the same face as his own and making all kinds of funny expressions, even a calm person like Tommy couldn't hold it in at this moment.

But considering the identity of the guy opposite him, he still had no intention of getting angry.

One thing everyone knows: don't fight with funny characters.

The status of the Incredible Man in the Marvel world is like that of Arale in the Dragon Ball world, and also like the five-dimensional man in the next world.

The main feature is to do whatever one wants without any reason.

Moreover, the Incredible Man is much stronger than those two.

Therefore, no matter how the Incredible Man provoked him or how he talked nonsense, Tommy remained unmoved and insisted on his principle of ignoring him.

His strategy worked.

"Ah, this is so boring, I've had enough!!"

Seeing that Tommy still ignored him, the incredible man who had been entertaining himself for a long time finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned back to his original form, and shouted loudly at the top of his lungs.

"You annoying bastard, you didn't even look at me, it's not fun at all, I'm about to explode!"

He said it and did it.

In an extremely exaggerated manner, the incredible man's body began to expand and deform rapidly, and soon swelled into a big balloon.

Somehow, Tommy felt instinctively uneasy.

But before he could do anything, an accident happened.

POP!!

As if it had expanded to its limit, the incredible man's body suddenly exploded.

What followed was a dazzling white light that was brighter than the sun.

"Damn it!"

Tommy, who was standing in the parking lot just now, was instantly swallowed by the white light.

Then he completely disappeared into the underground garage.

…

A few minutes later.

Because the surveillance camera was suddenly damaged and Tommy had not appeared for a long time, the staff in the monitoring room noticed something was wrong and immediately reported the situation to their superiors.

Operations Captain Melvin Porter did not hesitate at all. As soon as he received the news, he immediately gathered people and personally led a large number of Vercetti gang members to the scene and immediately began searching the underground parking lot.

"Search them all carefully, don't leave even an inch untouched!"

He shouted the order at the top of his voice, which echoed in the empty parking lot.

The men immediately scattered and began a detailed search.

They opened their eyes wide and did not miss any corner.

The trunks of the cars were opened one by one, and even the trash can in the corner was turned upside down.

Unfortunately, after working for a long time, they still didn't get any results.

There was nothing there except some car parts and dust.

At this point, even a fool would understand the seriousness of the matter.

"That's so strange, why did the boss suddenly disappear?"

Melvin wiped his sweat and told his men to continue searching, while he walked aside, took out the cell phone in his pocket and called his superiors.

Vercetti Building.

In the top floor office.

Jin, who was handling business, suddenly received a call from his subordinates.

At first she didn't take it seriously, thinking that the people below had done their job and kicked the troublemakers out.

But when she heard the content of the call, her expression changed immediately.

"What did you say? The boss suddenly disappeared mysteriously? You are kidding, how is this possible?"

Jin couldn't help but doubt, because she knew Tommy too well and knew how terrifying Tommy's strength was.

So she would never believe that a weirdo in green tights could cause trouble for Tommy.

Well, even if we think from the worst perspective, that green "Goblin" is incredibly powerful, but it might not be that easy to defeat her boss.

At least, Tommy wouldn't be defeated instantly and wouldn't be left without a chance to escape.

Jin never doubted Tommy's ability.

She stayed with Tommy the longest and witnessed the entire process of Tommy's rise.

The Russians, the Hand, vampires, werewolves, the Red Hood, the Kingpin...

Powerful enemies appeared one after another, but their final fate remained the same. They all lost their lives and became the cornerstone of Tommy's growth.

These kind-hearted people who are willing to make sacrifices have used their own experiences to prove that no one who dares to go against Tommy will have a good ending.

"But why did the boss disappear?"

Jin couldn't figure it out.

Although Tommy also disappeared mysteriously last time, at least he notified her in advance and handled the company's business in advance.

This is the first time that someone suddenly disappeared without saying a word.

But what can Jin do?

Even Tommy can't solve the problem, so it's useless for them to do anything.

Now she just hoped that this time would be like last time, and after some time, Tommy would come back on his own.

During the time when Tommy disappears, she must keep this secret strictly and not let outsiders know the truth.

It’s easier to say on the commercial level.

At this point in time, all companies are on the right track, and as long as everything is done according to the rules, there won't be too many problems.

But it’s hard to say about the underground world.

The underground world of New York has only been stabilized for a short time. If the gang leaders get to know the news and learn that Tommy has mysteriously disappeared, they will definitely not continue to do things honestly. They will definitely jump out to fight for power and destroy the situation that has been stabilized with great difficulty.

The territory in Tommy's hands is likely to be attacked.

At the very least, the newly acquired Hell's Kitchen will definitely become the target of public criticism and be fought over by everyone.

Jin didn't want to see this happen, so he gave Melvin an order.

“You should know how important this matter is without me telling you.

Therefore, what happened in the underground parking lot today must not be known to outsiders."

Melvin understood the importance of this without her reminder. He glanced at his subordinates and made a solemn promise.

"Please rest assured, Ms. Wexler, the brothers came to New York across the ocean and worked with the boss for so many years. They are loyal and will never speak nonsense."

His confidence was justified.

When Tommy first formed the Vercetti Gang, he made certain requirements for the membership, only allowing Italians to join.

Although the gang continued to expand, the Vercetti gang inevitably recruited some locals.

But Tommy still kept strict restrictions on newcomers. Except for a few well-known ones, like professional driver Franklin Clinton, no one else could get into high positions or hold important positions in the organization.

Of course, this approach is somewhat biased and not very fair.

But it has maintained the purity of the team very well, which greatly facilitates Tommy's control over the Vercetti Gang.

Moreover, compared to Americans who are always eccentric and don't like to take responsibility, Italians pay more attention to the concept of family, at least much stronger than Americans.

This is why Tommy trusts Italians more.

And the people led by Melvin today are particularly reliable in the gang.

They have already settled down in New York. Not to mention wives, many of them even have children, so there is no possibility of betrayal.

There was only one thing that worried Melvin.

"Ms. Wexler, look at Ms. Swanepoel, do you want to give her a heads up first?"

Jin immediately understood his intention.

"Ah, it's hard to deal with a philandering boss..."

Thinking of the beautiful girls around Tommy, Jin sighed slightly.

She could indeed keep what happened today a secret and not inform Candice and the others.

However, this may be able to conceal the truth for a while, but it is difficult to conceal it forever.

It's hard for Candice and the others not to have all kinds of thoughts after not getting in touch for such a long time. If something happens, it would be terrible.

Therefore, whether for Candice and the others or for her boss Tommy, she'd better not hide it.

But it would definitely be possible to just reveal the news of Tommy's disappearance.

After all, the combat effectiveness of those people is almost zero, and telling them would not have any effect, but would instead cause unnecessary worries.

It would be better to think of a suitable excuse and find a way to deal with it for a while.

"Yes, I'll tell you that the boss is going abroad for inspection and it's not convenient to contact the outside world for the time being."

After thinking for a moment, a flash of inspiration came to him.

This was not just an excuse. Tommy had already planned to go to Korea to investigate the development of nanomedical technology and see if it could be combined with rehabilitation medicinal baths to create more effective medical products.

What she needed to do now was to advance the inspection to an earlier date and provide an explanation for Tommy's disappearance.

In this way, even if the outside world notices it, she can explain it well and at least cope with it for a while.

"Now, I just hope that the boss can be safe and come back soon."

On weekdays, Kim always complained that Tommy gave her too much work while he himself was a hands-off boss and ran away to have fun.

But this time when Tommy disappeared, she realized how important Tommy was to her.

It was as if she had suddenly lost her backbone. Nothing she did worked. She was always worried and had no sense of security at all.

And where is Tommy, the person she is worried about?

Also, where did the mysterious person who disappeared go?

…

In the endless white world.

A strange green guy was floating in the air, looking around, with boredom written all over his face.

That's right.

This green weirdo appearing in the white space is the incredible incredible man.

This was not the first time he had come here, and he knew where he was.

To put it simply, this place is equivalent to a corridor in a building, connecting every room.

Through here, he can travel back and forth between different universes.

As long as he wants, he can go anywhere.

Just as the incredible man was racking his brains, thinking about where to go to have fun this time, a familiar figure slowly emerged behind him.

"Oh no, it's this green guy again!"

Suddenly, a little guy wearing a purple round hat appeared here.

He had just landed in the white space when he saw the guy who had given him a headache. He immediately turned around and tried to leave on tiptoe.

He was careful enough, but still couldn't hide it from the incredible man. He instantly attracted the other party's attention, turned his body 180 degrees and fixed his eyes on him.

"Oh, how wonderful it is, my brother, I see you again!"

Who else could be called a brother by the incredible people, except the five-dimensional people who also love to have fun?

Although they are in different worlds, they have the same positioning and both like to play pranks.

They are of similar size and ability.

This is also the reason why the incredible people call the five-dimensional people brothers.

However, compared to the enthusiasm of the incredible people, the five-dimensional people seemed much colder.

"Let me go, you nasty pickle!"

Being hugged tightly by the incredible man, the five-dimensional man's face was full of disgust.

As the saying goes, there is always someone stronger than you. Even though he is very powerful in his own world, he often makes all kinds of superheroes run around in circles.

But when he met an incredible person who was much stronger than him, he was restricted in every way and could not escape even if he wanted to.

In order to get rid of the annoying guy in front of him, the five-dimensional man came up with an idea.

"How about we play a game?"

"Games? What do you want to play?"

As soon as he heard that there was a game to play, the incredible man immediately became interested and finally opened his arms.

The five-dimensional man was finally free, calmed down for a while, and then spoke again.

"You always complain that you don't have an enemy, right? How about I take you to my world and go play with Superman together?"

Being able to force the five-dimensional people to this extent and even share their most beloved "toys" with others shows how difficult the incredible people are.

Hearing him say this, the incredible man smiled happily, clapped his hands and spoke happily.

"This is a really good idea. What are we waiting for? Let's act as soon as possible!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed the five-dimensional man, left the white space, and walked into the next world.

Who cares about the Krusty Krab when there are toys as fun as Superman?

In just a moment, the incredible man forgot everything that had just happened, and his mind was filled with all kinds of interesting pranks.

Here, two people find their goals and pursue happiness.

On the other hand, Tommy's situation is not optimistic.

…

Unlike the white space where the incredible man was, Tommy's eyes were completely dark and he couldn't see his hand in front of him.

There were only some huge balls like soap bubbles, faintly emitting colorful light, becoming rare bright spots in the dark space.

"Where am I?"

Looking at the strange environment around him, Tommy felt inexplicably familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

After searching his mind, he quickly found the relevant memories and his expression darkened slightly.

"I think I know where this is."

If he remembered correctly, he had seen a similar scene in the movie "Doctor Strange".

This means that his current location is most likely in the multiverse.

And those bubbles of different sizes and colors should be different worlds.

After figuring this out, Tommy had a rough idea in his mind and came up with a plan for the next step.

His ultimate mission must be to find a way to get home.

To do this, he must accumulate enough points and redeem them for energy replenishers in the system store.

At that time, the teleportation gun with energy replenishment fluid can work normally again and teleport him to his own universe according to the coordinates he had previously set.

The key point of the next action is to find a suitable world to facilitate his acquisition of points.

"Where should we go?"
