Chapter 72: Chapter 072: Returning to New York
Tony Stark and Yinsen stared at the disappearing parts in amazement. Today, they had encountered too many unbelievable things.
Tony Stark walked up to Charles and pondered, "Do you have knowledge of spatial storage technology?"
Charles shook his head, avoiding further discussion on this topic with Tony Stark. He didn't possess spatial storage technology.
He couldn't craft sealing scrolls or storage scrolls, and there were no such items available in the system store. Currently, he only had access to ninja tools like explosive tags, kunai, and shuriken.
As for ninja fragments or directly purchasing ninjas with gold coins, who can make those things, those hadn't appeared yet. He wasn't sure if they required a system update to become available or if they simply wouldn't be accessible.
Seeing that Charles didn't want to dwell on the topic, Tony Stark didn't press further. As a genius scientist, he deeply understood that such technologies were not something people casually discussed with others.
"Charles, what should we do next? Should we leave here and exit the desert?"
Charles called out, "Aoda!"
In the next moment, a massive blue snake, a hundred meters in length, emerged from the desert. Its enormous body was revealed as it spoke, "Lord Charles, what are your orders?"
Charles held Tony Stark and Yinsen in his hands and leaped onto the head of the giant blue snake.
Appearing suddenly on the snake's head surprised both Tony Stark and Yinsen.
They heard Charles instruct, "Parker, lead the way at full speed. Aoda, carry us and follow Parker."
"Understood, Lord Charles." x2
Parker sped off in the direction they had come from, moving as fast as lightning, covering a considerable distance in the blink of an eye.
Aoda, with its colossal body, moved swiftly across the desert as if it were level ground. Charles stood on the snake's head, securing himself in place with chakra.
Tony Stark and Yinsen, still held by Charles, were fixed by his side. Given the snake's speed, they could easily be blown away by the strong winds if Charles let go.
The strong desert wind blew against Tony Stark's face, but he showed no fear. He found the sensation exhilarating. He had driven race cars, ridden horses, piloted yachts, and flown airplanes, but riding a snake was an entirely new experience for him.
"Hey, buddy, your snake is incredible. How about we discuss this—can I have one too?"
"If that's possible, could you consider letting me keep one at my place? I'll definitely build a huge enclosure and feed it high-quality beef. What do you say? As long as I get to ride it occasionally."
"By the way, what about a ninja dog? Can you consider letting me adopt one? I'm willing to pay, or I could hire it as my bodyguard. I think it's much better than Happy…"
Listening to Tony Stark's non-stop chatter, Charles was momentarily stunned. Was this Iron Man? No wonder he treated Spider-Man like his son; it really seemed fitting.
"Mr. Stark, they are not commodities. They can't be sold or adopted. They are my battle companions. Please stop considering these options."
Hearing Charles's refusal once again, Tony also had his pride. He didn't say anything further. His true thoughts remained a mystery to those around him.
Parker, with Aoda in tow, quickly arrived at the location where Charles had disembarked earlier. Charles, holding Tony Stark and Yinsen, jumped down from the snake's head. He couldn't help but laugh at the sight of their messy hair.
Tony initially didn't understand what was happening, but seeing Yinsen's reaction, he quickly caught on and began trying to fix his own hairstyle as best as he could.
However, the hairstyle that was fixed in place by the strong winds wasn't something he could easily adjust with just a few moves. Ultimately, his efforts were in vain.
Charles walked over to Aoda, gave him a pat on the head, and said, "You've worked hard today, Aoda. Let's return to the Summoning World for now."
Afterward, he crouched down, patted Parker, and continued, "And you too, Parker. Let's go back together. I'll summon you when I need you."
"Understood, Lord Charles." x2
Then, with a bang, a cloud of smoke enveloped them, and the massive body of the Blue Snake, as well as the ninja dog Parker, disappeared from the sight of Tony, Yinsen, and Charles.
Yinsen, who witnessed this scene, was left dumbfounded. "No, they're gone…"
Turning away from Yinsen, Tony Stark, who was still busy fixing his appearance, didn't turn around but asked curiously, "Yinsen, what's gone?"
"The giant snake and the ninja dog, they've all disappeared."
Hearing Yinsen's words, Tony Stark immediately turned around and looked at the empty road, murmuring, "They really disappeared…"
At this moment, Tony Stark looked at Charles with a complex expression. He knew this was definitely not some simple spatial technology.
Unable to contain his astonishment, Tony Stark exclaimed, "Mr. Charles, what kind of technology is this?"
Charles briefly explained to Tony Stark about ninjas and summoning jutsu, but Tony wore an expression that said, "You can keep making things up, but don't treat me like a child." This made Charles realize there was no need to continue explaining.
So, let him think of me as a biologist...
Soon, the High Table emissary arrived in an armored vehicle and transported Charles and the others to the airport in Afghanistan.
At the airport, Yinsen parted ways with everyone and chose to return to his hometown, declining Tony Stark's invitation to go back to New York together.
Finally, Charles and Tony Stark boarded the private plane prepared by the High Table and headed for New York. Tony looked at Charles and remarked, "Your status is quite extraordinary, even though this private plane is of a slightly lower class than mine. If you have the chance, I'll show you my private plane."
Charles shrugged and didn't mind. He picked up his phone and dialed a number, saying, "Miss Pepper Potts, I've found Tony Stark and safely brought him back. We're currently on a plane and will arrive at the New York airport in about six hours. You can arrange for someone to pick him up and take him home."
"Yes, that's right, Tony Stark is safe and sound."
Then Charles placed the satellite phone on the table in front of Tony, signaling him to answer the call.
Tony picked up the phone from the table and proceeded to communicate. After a brief conversation, he hung up the phone and slowly said to Charles, "Thank you!"
