In fact, Luke and Tony both knew that they weren't talking about Wernal at all, but about Tony's proposal to "supervise" superhumans.
After being taught a lesson by the little witch last time, Tony had somehow come up with a supervision proposal, which included a plan to file all superhumans (and those of the same combat level).
The two of them, who rarely clashed, had argued several times over this proposal.
In the end, neither of them could convince the other, and the proposal was put on hold.
Of course, the tycoon still made some small moves to test the attitudes of the Avengers and the Bat Squad.
Then … there was no then.
A few of the Avengers still supported him, but the Bat Squad laughed it off when they heard the proposal, and even directly bye-bye cut off communication.
The Bat Squad had to abide by very strict safety rules to begin with, and it was repeatedly emphasized that they couldn't do evil or cause large-scale public security incidents.
In exchange for such strict rules, there was a great deal of freedom for individuals to act normally.
The superheroes didn't have to report to anyone where they wanted to go or what they wanted to do, much less anyone's permission.
Even if it was an emergency mission, it was up to them to accept it.
Ordinary missions … Well, those who lacked credit points were quick to grab them, and the others had to rely on luck to get them.
The Bat Squad was treated so well, but they didn't ask for supervision.
Now, Tony wanted them to register and accept a "superpower management agency" that they didn't know who would be in charge of. Who would be happy?
They all thought that the Ultron incident was too much pressure on the tycoon, and couldn't be bothered with him.
Besides, no matter how close Tony and Luke were, they weren't the same person.
The Avengers and the Bat Squad were two very different organizations.
Tony's suggestion already involved the issue of their route.
It wasn't like anyone could change the other party's mind with just a few words.
Luke didn't want to waste his time on such things.
He only set the rules for his own team members, and occasionally taught them ideological lessons to ensure that they didn't cross the line.
He had nothing better to do than to do some ideological work for the stubborn tycoon.
Should he hint to Pepper to have a child early? Luke couldn't help but think of a drastic solution.
Once Tony and Pepper had a child, at least half of his attention would be diverted. Coupled with his hobby of scientific research, he probably wouldn't have that much free time to mess with other people.
A young master who did scientific research was a good comrade, but a young master who played the righteous path was a disaster magnet.
It was safest to let Tony continue to be a tech geek.
…
At the end of August, Vernar disappeared without a trace after taking the 'main force' of the afterlife with him.
The world was calm and peaceful, and nothing major happened.
Luke and Skye, who had changed her appearance, were sitting on a boat in the sea. The surroundings were open, the sky was clear, and the sun was shining brightly.
It's a good day for sunbathing. It's a pity that Selina can't come. After all, both her sisters are here. If they're going to hang out together, they'll definitely hang out together.
Then it would be inconvenient for him to appear.
After sailing out to sea, Skye, who had been silent, finally said, "That, I didn't mean to attack Big Dipper that day …"
Luke waved his hand. "Someone already told me about your situation. You're the one who paid for the treatment. There's no need to apologize."
Skye breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he realize that he was sweating nervously. He took off his coat, revealing the gray cotton vest inside.
Luke glanced at it, only to find that it was fair and smooth.
After all, her mother was a Chinese with regeneration abilities, and her skin was much better than that of Europeans and Americans.
Skye, however, didn't notice the look in his eyes. She simply covered her forehead and complained, "I don't know why, but I suddenly feel that whatever that Vernar says is right, and I'm very happy to follow his orders. Now that I think about it, I feel so disgusted."
Luke hummed a response and took a sip of the black tea. "I'm more familiar with you, so I'll explain the situation to you so that you won't feel burdened and affect your work in the future."
Skye turned her head and blinked, as if she was all ears.
Luke added milk and sugar to the black tea in front of her with a smile. "There's plenty for you to listen to. Take your time. Don't rush."
A moment later, on the boat in the clear afternoon, Skye listened attentively with a cup in her hands.
…
The reason for Skye's "betrayal" was almost effortless for Ophelia, the expert on nano biological toxins.
Skye wasn't just a passerby; she was one of the aces that Luke had trained.
Because she needed to control her abilities and avoid self-harm, she had frequent checkups.
When her arm was first fractured, she had to be checked almost every day to determine the extent of the injury.
Later, when her ability was under control, the frequency of her checkups decreased, but it was still maintained at twice a month.
In just one day, Ophelia found a new parasite in Skye's body — it didn't exist in the blood sample from the last checkup.
On the third day, Ophelia came up with a treatment plan — she would use the latest nano toxin she had developed to enter Skye's body and kill the parasite at the same time.
The latest nano toxin could control the range and effect of the toxin, and was enough to kill all the parasites while slightly damaging Skye's body.
Luke didn't directly reject the answer, but asked her to give a test plan first.
In the end … Ophelia was slapped in the face.
The parasites that were easily killed by the nano toxin in Skye's blood had the characteristics of a whole external entity in her body.
When the first batch of parasites were killed, they were like soldiers who had received a "signal to go to war," and immediately united.
While regenerating at a crazy high speed, they also strengthened their poison resistance.
In less than twenty minutes, the number of parasites increased, and they occupied Skye's brain, internal organs, and other important parts.
According to Genesis' simulation, Ophelia's previous plan was likely to instantly poison Skye while killing the parasites.
At that time, even if Luke used the Light of Life, he wouldn't be able to save Skye's life.
The first plan failed, and Ophelia, who had been slapped in the face, was quite unhappy.
On the fourth day, she came up with a more stable and risky treatment plan — she would use the symbiote Riot, who was locked up in Space 2, to live in symbiosis with Skye.
With the symbiote's ability to devour and regenerate, she could definitely turn all the parasites in her body into highly nutritious protein supplements while ensuring her safety.
As usual, Luke tested it first. He mixed Skye's isolated blood into the nutrient solution and fed it to Riot.
Riot didn't say anything when it ate the blood.
After this guy was brought in, it had been subjected to comprehensive tests and experiments, as if it had been tormented into an idiot.
It never carried out external orders, and just acted on its own.
Luke couldn't be bothered to analyze whether this guy was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. In any case, it would be an experiment subject in Space 2 for the rest of its life.
If it didn't want to live anymore and committed suicide one day, it would also leave behind valuable experimental data.
Luke would remember its selfless contribution to the research of the symbiotes, and give it verbal praise like "pioneer" or "martyr of the symbiotes."
