Chapter 172 What, Tony, you are going to die

Um!

The funny clown.

This name should be engraved on the tombstone as a tribute to the real dead clown!

After all, his clown clone only temporarily dissipated, and the fateful clown who dared to take action on the balance of fate was really dead.

At least the other party helped him digest the [Joker] potion in advance and gave him a special power of life.

It seems reasonable to erect a tombstone yourself and pay homage to it.

Aylin felt that it was reasonable to engrave the name "The Clown" on the tombstone. When Tony Stark heard this, he looked at Aylin as if he had seen a ghost.

"The clown? What the hell is this name? Do you want this to be engraved on your tombstone? And aren't you his friend? Why don't you even know his name?"

"Isn't it strange that you don't know your name? When we communicate in our circle, we usually use code names or titles. No one will communicate by his real name, and he has never mentioned his name..."

After Tony heard Aylin's words, he couldn't help but complain: "Communicate completely using code names. Are you sure your so-called circle is not some killer organization?"

Aylin rolled his eyes deliberately when he heard this, and then said in a low tone: "Of course not, we use code names to communicate just to reduce unnecessary trouble. After all, names contain a lot of special meanings and will reveal their true information. Not to mention, if used by someone with intentions, the real name will become the best medium for the other person to curse themselves... Even the devils and angels in myths have appeared. You don't think the curse is just a legend... ····”

"Curse? Is this really a thing?"

Tony Stark couldn't help but shudder when he heard this.

For Tony Stark, he would rather face the nuclear bomb that destroys the world than face the curses of these gods!

After all, he can still run when faced with a nuclear bomb.

But faced with that weird and unpredictable curse, Tony Stark really didn't even know where to run.

At this moment, Pepper on the side seemed to have thought of something.

He asked: "Curse, speaking of it, there were many people in Harlem last night who had inexplicable bleeding from their orifices and looked like crazy. Some of those people were cured by the wings of the seraph later and restored their sanity, but they were still Some of them are still crazy. Are these people also cursed?"

"No!"

Aylin shook his head when he heard this, "They were not cursed. They just looked directly at the shadow of the evil god that appeared over New York, and their spirits and souls were irreversibly polluted!"

"Although the feathers scattered by the seraph can purify part of the pollution, it is only part of the pollution."

Pepper was slightly stunned after hearing Aylin's answer.

"Those people were not cursed? But they became like that because they looked directly at the shadow of the evil god that appeared in the sky over New York? Looking directly at a shadow makes people go crazy. How is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible." A sneer appeared on Aylin's face: "There is such a sentence in the Bible, Image of the Invisible God! (Image of the Invisible God!)"

"Change it, it actually means don't look directly at God!"

"Not even the merciful God allows mortals to look directly at him, let alone those evil gods!"

"Of course, from a mystical perspective, it's not that God or evil gods value their majesty and don't allow mortals to look directly at them, but... their strength is too strong and their life levels are too high."

"For ordinary people, looking directly at such existences is like looking directly at the sun with an astronomical telescope, and the consequences are hundreds of times more serious..."

"In ancient legends, there are many records of ordinary people suddenly changing their personalities, becoming crazy and cruel after seeing beings such as devils. This is not completely Du Yi, but their spiritual will has been affected. The pollution that exists in high places..."

After hearing Aylin's metaphor, Pepper's expression changed.

Then I quickly remembered a certain record in the Bible.

Tony Stark on the side also quickly took out his mobile phone and went back to search for what Aylin said.

Image of the Invisible God! (The invisible image of God!)

This sentence actually exists.

··········

Just when Tony Stark and Pepper were in shock.

Aylin turned around and went upstairs.

Barely a minute.

Aylin walked down from the second floor again.

However, when he came down this time, Aylin suddenly had a document bag in his hand.

After returning to the first floor.

Aylin did not explain anything further to Pepper and the others.

Too much is not enough.

What I have said today is enough for Tony Stark and the others, the knowledge mixed with their private life.

After they have digested some.

He took out the water glass, poured a glass of warm water for Pepper, and handed it to Pepper to calm her shock. At the same time, Aylin also handed over the document bag in his hand.

"This is······"

Looking at the document bag handed to him by Aylin, a trace of doubt flashed in Pepper's eyes.

"Here is the equity authorization letter of Stark Industries. I took advantage of the sharp drop in Stark Industries' stock and shorted Stark Industries' stock at a high price. Then, when Stark Industries' stock was at its lowest point, I bought a batch of Stark Industries' stock at the bottom."

"I heard that Aunt Pepper was planning to hold a shareholders' meeting of Stark Industries recently and wanted to sort out the internal affairs of Stark Industries. I entrusted a lawyer to handle an equity authorization letter, authorizing you to exercise all my voting rights in Stark Industries..."

"I don't own many shares, but it should be helpful for you to integrate Stark Industries!"

At this point, Aylin said to Pepper: "By the way, Aunt Pepper, I haven't congratulated you on becoming the CEO of Stark Industries yet! This equity authorization letter is my gift to you!"

I don't know if it was Aylin's influence.

Or it was because Tony Stark was rescued from terrorists in advance and the Mark series armor was built in advance.

This life.

Tony Stark became a hands-off boss earlier.

Pepper also became the CEO of Stark Industries earlier.

Of course.

Now it has only been a few days since Pepper became the CEO of Stark Industries.

And this matter was not publicized under Pepper's low-key handling.

If it weren't for Erin who had been paying attention to Pepper's situation.

He might not know.

After knowing that Pepper became the CEO of Stark Industries, Erin specially found a lawyer to draft this equity authorization letter.

With Erin's equity authorization and Tony Stark's support.

In this life.

It must be much easier for Pepper to sit firmly in the position of CEO of Stark Industries than the original fate.

But after hearing that the document bag in his hand contained the equity authorization letter of Stark Industries.

A trace of surprise and relief flashed in Pepper's eyes.

"Thank you!"

Pepper did not refuse this equity authorization letter.

No matter how much equity this is, it is Erin's heart.

What made Pepper happy was Arlin's kindness.

On the contrary, Tony Stark's mouth twitched a few times when he heard that Arlin had taken advantage of the sharp drop in Stark Industries' stock price to short-sell Stark Industries' stock at a high price, and then bought Stark Industries' stock at the lowest point.

"Wow, you are really a business genius. I'm sure that your previous operation was definitely the wisest investment you have ever made in your life!"

After speaking in a slightly sarcastic and exaggerated tone, Tony Stark looked at the equity authorization letter in Arlin's hand.

"Well, speaking of which, I'm a little curious, how much did you make from that financial investment, 100,000, 200,000? Or 1 million, 2 million?"

"If it's too little, this equity won't help Pepper. After all, those who can attend the shareholders' meeting are the major shareholders of Stark Industries..."

"Tony!!!"

Before Tony Stark finished speaking, Pepper on the side raised her eyebrows and interrupted Tony Stark's words in dissatisfaction.

Almost at the same time as Pepper's voice sounded, Tony Stark's mobile phone also rang the voice of artificial intelligence, Jarvis.

"Sir, according to the latest data I have collected, Mr. Arryn now owns 11.35% of Stark Industries' shares, second only to you and the SHIELD that holds shares secretly, and even higher than the shares held by the Stani family (Obadiah's family) now."

"With 11.35% of the shares, plus your full support, Ms. Pepper will have a total of 51.35% of the voting rights of Stark Industries, which will be of great help to her in becoming the CEO of Stark Industries..."

Walter?

11.35% of Stark Industries' shares.

But when Jarvis reported this number.

Not only was Pepper stunned, but even Tony Stark on the side also showed an incredible expression.

Walter!

11.35% of Stark Industries' shares, even if Arryn bought a large amount at the bottom when Stark Industries' stock was at its lowest point, the huge amount of funds would still be an astronomical figure.

Even Tony himself couldn't squeeze out such a huge amount of money, let alone this kid!

On the side, Pepper, who also thought of this, changed her face.

She looked at Erin with an unprecedented serious expression, and said seriously: "Erin, tell me, where did you get so much money, right..."

Erin looked at Pepper, whose eyes were full of worry, and said helplessly: "Aunt Pepper, what are you thinking about? I haven't done anything bad."

"And you underestimate a fortune teller who can predict the future..."

In order to avoid Pepper's questioning.

Erin simply used a bottle of extraordinary potion to cure Norman Osborn's terminal illness, and exchanged 5% of Osborn Industries from him, and then used 5% of Osborn Industries' shares to mortgage 10 billion funds from the bank, and then entered the stock market to short Stark Industries' stocks, and when Stark Industries' stocks were at their lowest, they bought Stark Industries' stocks in a big way, and explained to them a series of rumors...

As for how he had the guts to use such a large amount of funds to short Stark Industries' stocks, and why he was able to seize the opportunity to buy in large quantities when Stark Industries' stocks were at their lowest point...

Erin attributed all of this to the mysterious divination.

And Erin's series of operations.

Pepper, who heard it directly, and Tony Stark were stunned.

"Damn it, is it so easy to make money from fortune tellers? This is unfair!"

After muttering, Tony Stark suddenly remembered the mysterious potion that Erin had just mentioned that cured Norman Osborn's terminal illness.

[If that mysterious potion can cure Norman Osborn's terminal illness, then can it also cure my palladium poisoning? ]

Thinking of this, Tony's eyes unconsciously flashed a strange color.

Next to Tony, Pepper, who was in shock at the moment, did not notice the strange color in Tony Stark's eyes.

But at this time, Arlin, who had a super sense of emotions, keenly caught the strange color that flashed in Tony Stark's eyes when he heard that Arlin used super potions to cure Norman Osborn's terminal illness.

His thoughts turned slightly.

Arlin soon thought of something.

[Speaking of which, Tony has passed the position of CEO of Stark Industries to Pepper. So, at this time, he has already noticed the palladium poisoning in his body? 】

Thinking of this, Arlin's eyes turned, and then he turned to Pepper with a smile and said:

"By the way, Aunt Pepper, where is the location of the cemetery you bought before? If there is a good view, I think you can also reserve a place for Mr. Stark."

"Arlin..."

Originally, she was happy because Arlin could make so much money, and was moved because he gave her the full power of attorney for Stark Industries. Pepper couldn't help glaring at Arlin when she heard the words.

She thought that Arlin was dissatisfied with Tony's previous words and took the opportunity to retaliate!

"Aunt Pepper, why are you glaring at me? I'm not kidding."

As he spoke, Arlin glanced at Tony Stark and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the poison around Mr. Stark's heart has begun to spread throughout his body. If it continues like this, it won't be long before I estimate that we may have to attend his funeral, so... I think it is necessary to prepare a beautiful cemetery in advance."

Arlin finished speaking.

Pepper, who was glaring at Arlin with dissatisfaction, and Tony Stark, who was standing next to him, all changed their expressions.

Tony Stark looked like he had seen a ghost, looking at Arlin with an expression of disbelief.

Pepper, who had been working with Tony for nearly ten years and knew him very well, felt a sudden pang in her heart when she saw the expression on Tony Stark's face.

She subconsciously covered her mouth and whispered in disbelief: "Oh my God, Tony, you are not really going to die!"
