"Shattering my perception? Don't you know that my perception was already shattered when that guy in the cave tore apart the mech suit with his bare hands?" Tony Stark said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice, speaking softly.
Tony Stark's condition was poor at this time. He knew he was suffering from palladium poisoning, but he couldn't give up the Arc Reactor in his chest because it was sustaining his life...
Moreover, the new mech suit that Tony Stark had built still needed it to function. He was unwilling to give up on his mech suits, especially since they had not yet fully shown their capabilities, and Tony Stark had not used them to defeat Robert.
All these factors mixed together became Tony Stark's obsession, making him somewhat paranoid. Even though he knew continuing this way would lead him step by step towards death, he still had no intention of turning back...
As Tony Stark's words ended, a light screen appeared in front of him, showing records and reports about the Ocean Healing Goddess.
Initially, Tony Stark was dismissive of the so-called gods, even considering Robert to be some kind of biotechnological entity. However, Tony Stark saw some information from sources he had previously hacked into, several important departments!
"Gods? Are there really gods in this world?" Tony Stark raised an eyebrow, then his gaze flickered slightly, "Jarvis, tell me, if there really are gods, could she defeat that monster we saw that day?"
"Based on the information you described earlier, sir, the bio-person possesses super strength, super speed, super defense, and can also release wind pressure and energy..." Jarvis quickly replied, "If the Ocean Healing Goddess truly only has healing powers as reported, without any other abilities, she probably would not be able to defeat the bionic person, but with such healing powers, the bionic person might also be unable to kill her."
"So, what if she really is a god?" Tony Stark scoffed, speaking softly, "Alright, keep an eye on it, and notify me when there's news. I hope this Ocean Healing Goddess won't disappoint me... But, her name is really long, isn't it?"
Even with official department intelligence as backing, Tony Stark was not very convinced of such a deity. However, if there really was news, going to have a look to change his mood wasn't a bad idea...
Days later, in a fishing village in the Bahamas, Robert and Jackie Chan appeared here. This time, Little Jade did not come along because she did not use any tricks in this match and ultimately lost to Jackie Chan.
Moreover, Little Jade really wasn't convenient to follow this time because Jackie Chan didn't come to this fishing village by plane but was flown over by Robert.
After all, the location of the Horse Talisman was still uncertain. If they were to fly around the world by plane, it would seem very passive. It was more convenient to let Robert fly over directly.
And this fishing village was the thirteenth place that Jackie Chan and Robert had searched for the Ocean Healing Goddess. But they hadn't found anything before, as if the Ocean Healing Goddess was just a legend.
Even if it weren't for the description of the Ocean Healing Goddess wearing a glowing stone with a horse pattern on her chest, Jackie Chan and Robert would have thought they were mistaken...
However, fortune favors the bold, just as Robert and Jackie Chan were about to head to the next location where the Ocean Healing Goddess had appeared, Robert suddenly raised an eyebrow and looked towards the distance.
In Robert's perception, a transcendent power had arrived here, and this power, like Yin Sen's, was very pure, belonging to the light according to his father.
"The Ocean Healing Goddess has arrived!" "The Ocean Healing Goddess has come!"
Soon, cheers erupted, and among the crowd, some people discreetly passed the news along. A group of people rushed towards the direction of the Ocean Healing Goddess, but were blocked by a water curtain.
Behind the water curtain, a red-haired woman was frowning slightly as she looked at the surrounding crowd, seemingly searching for the genuinely injured and sick.
This woman, named Mera, was untraceable by various forces because she was not a human, or at least, not a terrestrial human.
Mera came from one of the seven underwater kingdoms, the kingdom of Zebel, and was a princess of Zebel. The most famous kingdom underwater was naturally Atlantis.
Originally, the underwater world only had Atlantis as a kingdom, but unfortunately, it later split into seven nations, making Zebel also a part of Atlantis.
"This doesn't seem to be the power of the Horse Talisman, does it?" Jackie Chan, who came over upon hearing the noise and looked at the water curtain not far away, muttered with some hesitation.
"This is her own power. The Horse Talisman did not light up." Robert shook his head, feeling very clear that this was Mera's own power, meaning Mera herself was a transcendent being. "Let's wait and see, it seems like she's about to heal those people..." Jackie Chan said in a low voice as he watched the water curtain gradually open to welcome the truly injured and sick people from the crowd.
"That's not right, several of those people have very evil auras..." Robert frowned, and as he was speaking, he suddenly looked up towards the sky where a figure jumped from a plane without even wearing a parachute! "Bang!"
"Bang!"
However, before the figure in the sky could land, gunshots were heard near Mera. Streams of water formed barriers to block the bullets, but a few still pierced through Mera's body.
Mera had not expected that her good intentions of healing the sick would lead to an attempt on her life. "Buzz!" In an instant, the Horse Talisman on Mera's chest lit up, and her wounds healed instantly, leaving no sign of injury, even her clothes were repaired.
"Thud!" At that moment, the figure from the sky landed in an unexpected manner, crashing heavily onto the ground without moving for a long while. If it wasn't for the shield beneath him seeming to absorb a great deal of the impact, this person might have been shattered to pieces...
"Why would he fly so recklessly? Isn't he afraid of dying?" Robert looked at the person who lay on the ground for a while, blinking in confusion.
"I miscalculated!" The person who landed, named John Walker, was a super-soldier developed by the military, having survived the injection of the super-soldier serum. However, John Walker was somewhat annoyed at this moment, as his grand entrance ended in failure, "I thought I'd land in the sea..."
