Chapter 962 Superpowered Criminals Appear Frequently

"According to the information collected by S.H.I.E.L.D., there are currently more than 50,000 people with super powers in the world that they can identify, and these are only those that have been recorded openly. Perhaps there are many people with super powers who have not been discovered in private or have not yet awakened." Tony slid the light curtain in front of him, saying with some surprise.

"What happened to this world? Why did such a big change happen in just a few months?" Banner couldn't help but fall into deep thought, with a bit of helplessness in his tone. He deeply felt that the recent changes on the earth were so drastic that they far exceeded his imagination.

For Banner, a lot of things really happened during this period. He first met Noah, a powerful being, and then Noah directly helped him solve the problem of being hunted by the army. He also joined his men and became a glorious worker.

After that, Banner began to be confused by what happened on Earth. First, New York was invaded by aliens, revealing that the Earth was not alone in the vast universe. Then, he met Thor and Loki, two characters who seemed to exist only in myths and legends, and later learned about the incredible existence of the Infinity Gems.

Then, all kinds of unimaginable beings emerged, including the Earth Wizard, Dimension Demon, the huge Celestial God, and Noah who could also transform into the size of the Earth, and completely subverted Banner's worldview.

Once, he thought that his ability to transform from a human into a green giant was a miracle among miracles. However, after seeing these creatures that appeared later, he realized that compared with these amazing things, he was nothing but a small witch.

"Well, I guess all this must have something to do with Noah." Tony touched his chin and said thoughtfully. In his opinion, only an incredible existence like Noah could create so many miracles.

Tony has seen enough of Noah's mystery and power during this period of time. Every once in a while, Noah can show Tony a performance that makes him extremely surprised, from the very beginning "another Iron Man", that is, the Project Wind Armor, and later giving him the Destroyer Armor to build a battle suit, showing all kinds of mysterious powers, such as magic, and finally being able to resolve the crisis brought by those huge Celestials.

In the beginning, when Tony saw Noah's incredible powers, he actually considered creating an "anti-Noah" armor. Of course, it didn't mean that Tony wanted to fight Noah or be his enemy. In fact, in Tony's imagination, the armor was used to fight against enemies who had magical powers like Noah. It was just because the inspiration came from Noah, so Tony thought of naming it the Anti-Noah Armor.

However, after witnessing Noah's power leaping to a level he could never have dreamed of every once in a while, he decisively gave up the name "Anti-Noah". After all, can your mecha be as big as a planet? Can it easily deal with the gods? If not, how can you be called "Anti-Noah"?

Eventually, Tony decided to rename the mecha as the "anti-magic" suit to better deal with enemies from the magic side.

"That may be true. After Noah came back last time, he didn't stay for long before he hurried back to the universe. We didn't have the chance to tell him in detail about the earth's earth-shaking changes." Banner nodded in agreement when he heard this. He believed that only someone like Noah could do such extraordinary things.

What made Banner feel pity was that after Loki came here for help, Noah returned to Earth briefly in response to their call. However, that time, Noah only solved the problem with Loki and then hurried back to the universe. It was said that there was a powerful enemy waiting for him there.

Neither Tony nor Banner had the chance to communicate more with Noah to learn about the situation in the universe, and they also had no time to tell Noah about the changes that had taken place on Earth.

"Haha, maybe when Noah comes back next time, he will be surprised to see the huge changes that have taken place on Earth." Tony said with a smile, with a hint of anticipation and joking in his tone.

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it. After all, the earth is really changing every day." Banner also laughed.

"But... having too many people with super powers doesn't seem to be a good thing." Tony swiped the light and shadow screen a few times, observing the subsequent information.

Tony learned from the subsequent information that many superpowers have embarked on a criminal path after awakening. These superpowers have a variety of abilities, some of which seem quite ordinary and mundane, such as being able to control plant flowering, make the body emit a faint light, or bend a spoon.

Although these abilities are currently weak and insignificant, their future development potential remains unknown. However, these superpowers are currently unable to affect social stability.

However, for those who awaken powerful abilities from the beginning, the situation is completely different. Some of them can control fire, ice, and even cause storms; some can transform into animal forms and have extraordinary physiques; and some have even more peculiar and powerful abilities. The existence of these superpowers undoubtedly brings great potential threats to society, and chaos may occur if you are not careful.

The data Tony was looking through recorded in detail several cases of crimes committed by people with super powers. What was even more worrying was that criminal forces in some regions had begun to actively recruit and gather these super-powered criminals, attempting to use their powers to commit more serious crimes. This trend undoubtedly brought unprecedented challenges to global security.

"It seems that even during this period of rest, I will be busy." Tony couldn't help but sigh after browsing the information.

As Iron Man, it is his duty to punish these criminals. He must take action to let those who have awakened or may awaken superpowers in the future understand that once they embark on the path of crime, they will face severe punishment from Iron Man.

"It feels good to stretch your muscles. You had a heart surgery not long ago, and you haven't done any strenuous exercise yet, right? Before you start, do you want to warm up first to avoid your body being unable to bear it?" Banner asked with concern.

That's right, during the time when Noah was away from Earth, Tony had actually completed a task that was extremely important to him - he underwent heart surgery, repaired the sword of Damocles that had been hanging outside his heart, and removed the missile fragments that could take his life at any time.
