Chapter 35: Another exciting dark game!

Ron wasn't just making up the story about Tony not being good in that aspect.

Throughout Marvel, Tony has worked with at least 800 superheroes, if not a thousand. If you include the magazine models, the number would be even higher, not less.

In this case, it is hard to say what the magazine model's attitude is. After all, as a classic upper-class white man, Tony has never failed to manage his body. He doesn't have eight-pack abs when he takes off his clothes, but he is definitely not sub-healthy.

But this kind of strength within the normal range is not enough for those superheroes who can fly, hide, and resist bullets with their bodies...

Simply put, unless he installs an electric hook-eight or uses something like the Extremis virus to enhance his physical abilities, no matter how much he enhances his physique, it is still just the strength of an ordinary person. This also leads to the fact that in many comic worlds, almost every girl who has sex with Tony has complained about his poor sexual skills.

Thinking about it, Ron looked at Tony and gave an awkward but polite smile: "Actually, I'm not discriminating against you, I'm just worried about Miss Pepper's future..."

This time, not only Tony, but even Ethan and Geralt beside him subconsciously glanced at Pepper. Although they quickly retracted their gaze and sat in their original position to sip water, this subtle movement was still caught by Tony with his eyes flashing red.

This time, someone's defense was really broken.

"Jarvis! Lock him down immediately, call the police right now, and hire the most shameless lawyers for me. I'm going to sue him for defamation! He defamed me!"

Tony made up his mind that he must not let this guy leave so easily. At least, he had to clear his grievances!

In response, Jarvis' voice was as calm as ever.

Jarvis: "I'm sorry, sir. Although according to my analysis of the expressions of you, Miss Pepper, Mr. Geralt, and Mr. Ethan, there is indeed a fifth person here. But after I mobilized all the surveillance probes, I still didn't find any trace."

"Ok?"

After hearing what Jarvis said, Tony blinked in surprise: "No trace?"

Ron didn't want to explain, he just smiled and said, "If everything is fine, I'll leave. Also, Miss Pepper has been stocking up on oyster extract and sea dog balls recently. I think someone is going to secretly place an order~"

"Bullshit! There's no way I'm eating that! I'm great, there's nothing wrong with me!"

Ron curled his lips: "It's not you who said whether there is a problem or not, it's the woman who said it."

As he spoke, Ron spoke to Geralt through the system, and then Geralt stood up and followed Ron away.

"Let me see you two off."

Seeing Tony's unhappy face, and a hint of worry, Pepper shook her head helplessly, then followed him towards the elevator.

After entering the elevator, although no one said anything, Ron could guess from feeling the subtle fluctuations in Pepper's mind that Pepper was thinking about whether to ask questions or not.

Thinking about it, Ron simply said, "It's true."

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Pepper was also slightly stunned, and then looked at Ron behind him with a somewhat surprised look. In response, Ron simply said:
"In the future, you and Tony do have a very beautiful daughter. Of course, that is a world line similar to this one, just like two leaves of similar height. Although they are not exactly the same, Tony has Robert Downey Jr.'s face and you have Gwyneth's face, so I guess it should be no different."

After hearing Ron's words, ignoring the names like Robert Downey Jr. or Gwyneth, which she had never heard of, Pepper's eyes only revealed a mixture of joy and complex emotions. Geralt raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Judging from the exciting dark game just now... Gwent, the dean is not a bad guy, but he is definitely not a good person. Why is he now...

Ron: "But what I told Tony was also true."

"Huh?!" Pepper was stunned again when she heard that.

Ron smiled and said, "I don't like to lie. I love to tell the truth. This includes what I just said to Tony. It's true that she and you have a beautiful daughter in a certain world line, but in the same way, in more world lines, he is the one who is complained about for "not being good at that job." "

"As a doctor, I don't want to see a tense doctor-patient relationship. But there's nothing I can do. Doctors are kindhearted. I really don't want Miss Pepper's second half of her life to be ruined by this...right."

After hearing Ron's words, Pepper's eyes gradually became focused after a brief silence.

"But, is it too late to control it now?"

"It's never too late to mend." As he spoke, Ron stretched out his hand and clenched it with a little force. Along with the falling lighter shell, a brand new lighter defuser came into view.

"For the dude, I recommend physical therapy."

Picking up the electric shock device, Pepper took out three checks for $50.

"This is my personal medical sponsorship of Hell's Kitchen. Also, order three sessions."

"With a good wife like you, Shi Da Ke must have saved the galaxy in his previous life!"

Looking at the two people who had reached a deal, Geralt on the side slowly let out a breath - he didn't know whether Ron was a good person, but one thing was certain, that is, even if Ron was doing good things, he would definitely do bad things.

If Yennefer came...

No, it should be fine.

If you think about it carefully, your battles with those sorceresses were all very secretive, and other people shouldn't know about it.

I thought to myself, but considering that Ron even knew that Yennefer had been secretly looking for a way to get pregnant, and I didn't even know about this... Huh? !
Suddenly I felt like something was not right.

After leaving the Stark Industries building, Ron did not hang around, but took Geralt directly back to the mental hospital at 666 Hell's Kitchen.

Looking at the two-story hospital office building in front of him, which was not shabby but definitely not luxurious, and the electric fences and thorns on the outer wall of the hospital, Geralt couldn't help but complain, even though he was mentally prepared:

"Rather than a hospital, this feels more like a prison..."

"Isn't a mental hospital a prison?" Ron seemed very casual about Geralt's complaint. Then he simply brought the wolf to the storage room on the first floor.

"Hey, Wolf, and Minnie, come out, there are new people here." After hearing Ron's words, Wolf also walked out of the small room next to the storage room.

This small room has been transformed into a ninja-style room by Wolf. There are windows for communication between the two rooms, secret doors for passage, and even an underground passage for escape.

The moment he saw the wolf, Geralt couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Demon hunters have stronger senses than ordinary people, and their sense of smell and hearing are far superior to ordinary people. But even so, before the wolf took the initiative to appear in front of him, Geralt still did not feel any signs of living people in the small house.

"Don't look at me. He's a bucket number that has passed the level. He can beat five of you without even taking a breath."

After hearing what Ron said, Geralt curled his lips and said nothing.

Although Ron seemed to be a nobody, according to Geralt's observation, Ron was not a person who liked to lie... or rather, for Ron, lying was meaningless. Unless it could bring him more fun, there was no need for it.

Thinking of this, Geralt took the initiative to greet him: "Geralt, from... the world of demon hunters."

Hearing this, he glanced at Geralt and nodded: "Wolf, from the world of Sekiro."

After a simple handshake, Wolf stood aside and stopped talking. However, something on the wall aroused Geralt's curiosity - it was a light curtain that only the system holder could see. On top of the light curtain, a large number of props were playing in a rolling manner.

This should be the public shop of other people described in the newcomer's guide, right? It looks good, with a lot of valuable things and magic materials... Well, Yennefer should like it very much.

He thought to himself that he would take a closer look later, but for now, Geralt focused his attention on interacting with the other members of the team.

It is a bit frustrating to say, because of the mutation of the demon hunter, although the demon hunter's mission is to protect humans from the harm of demons, but because of the strange appearance of the inferior demons and the profit-seeking behavior of some demon hunters, the demon hunter is not liked by others in his original world.

Some taverns in big cities have directly stated that they will not welcome witchers, and daily verbal sarcasm and alienation are common.

but now……

Feeling the indifference and even indifference of Ron and the wolf, Geralt felt that this world was not bad. At least, Ron knew a lot, even his nickname of the butcher, and the real reason behind this nickname.

Just as he was thinking, Mi Niang also walked out of the storage room carefully. With her belly bulging, she bowed slightly to Geralt and said, "Hello, Mr. Geralt."

"Hello." After taking a look at Minnie's pregnant belly, Geralt raised his eyebrows in surprise - even pregnant women can come here?

Thinking of this, Geralt couldn't help but look at Ron and asked, "Miniang doesn't seem to be... a fighter?"

"Well, I think it's logistics." Ron said, "I'm a level one system, responsible for connecting with other parts of the World Tree, such as reviewing tasks and some bugs in the system. Of course, I will also participate in front-line combat and execute tasks. You and Wolf are level two, responsible for the execution of tasks and the maintenance of abandoned universes... that is, this world."

"Miniang is a third-level system. She is under the command of Wolf and is responsible for maintaining the world in Wolf's absence. Of course, when necessary, she will also carry out missions with Wolf. However, Mi Niang is not a combat member, and she is also a pregnant woman."

"I see……"

He nodded thoughtfully, and then hesitantly asked, "If that's the case... then, can I bring a few people with me?"

"Of course, Yennefer, right? I also think you have to find a way to bring it." Ron said seriously:

"Tsk tsk, the scent of cloves and currants. You don't know, in my previous life, I tried to simulate the scent by soaking chestnuts in old vinegar from a water tower. The result was that the smell was like the water squeezed out of a gym student's socks that hadn't been changed for three days. Later I found out that currants are actually a kind of berry..."

Hearing this, Geralt became even worse - cloves and currants are the smell of Yennefer, how did you know? Is this even in the script? ?
Thinking of this, Geralt couldn't help but ask: "Um... do you know Yennefer well?"

"It's okay, not really understanding, but you do need to be prepared."

Hearing this, Ron guessed some of Geralt's thoughts and a malicious smile appeared on his face.

"Especially every time you wake up from a dream, do you know that feeling? The early morning sun extends its fiery tentacles into the room through the gaps in the blinds. The tiny dust particles pulsate in the slanting sunlight, leaving spots of light on the floor, and then a ray of dazzling light is scattered on Yennefer's belt buckle."

"Hmm?" Realizing that something was wrong, Geralt's eyes became particularly strange.

Ron recalled with a look of aftertaste: "Yennefer's belt was lying on a high-heeled shoe. Under the high-heeled shoe was a white shirt, and under the white shirt was a black skirt. A black stocking was hung on the back of an armchair carved with a Chimera pattern. The other stocking and shoe seemed to have disappeared completely..."

As he spoke, Ron sighed slightly:

"You may not know it yet, but you will know it sooner or later. Because Yennefer always throws clothes everywhere in a hurry. You can only start to get used to it, because there is no other choice..."

"No, how did you know that? Could it be that there is something like this in the so-called 'script'?!"

Ron did not respond, but recalled to himself: "Although she looks smart and capable, Yennefer is actually very lazy in private. Every time she gets up, she buries her head in the pillow and complains about everything. And no matter whether she is happy or angry, she likes to bite people."

"Enough! Really enough!" Geralt couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.

He was sure that Ron had not lied to him. But how did Ron know all these things? Was it from his own experience, or from someone else's narration, or from reading a script?

Although the contact time was not very long, but Geralt was sure that this thing would not reveal a single word unless he paid something - and would continue to keep him in suspense!
Looking at Ron's seemingly gentle smile, which actually showed evil intent all over his body, Geralt took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and threw his deck to the ground in front of him.

"Come on! Let's play a game of Gwent! Tell me if you win!"

“Hehehe!! I’ve been waiting for you to say this! Let’s have a hearty dark game right now!”

As he spoke, Ron laid on the ground and added, "But you have to wait first."

Geralt was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Ron took out a blank card and a marker:

"I didn't have enough fun playing with that deck last time, so I'll print a new one, hehe."
