When Mysterio successfully tricked 'Edith' away from Peter, the illusion in the entire tavern instantly disappeared, because everything Peter saw was just a product of augmented reality technology.
"See, it's effortless!"
As Mysterio couldn't help but spread his hands and laughed, the rest of the real people all cheered loudly!
"yeah!"
"Oooooh!"
“We did it!”
"Someone help me get this stupid costume off," Mysterio laughed, laughing wildly.
By the time the stupid fishbowl suit was removed, the store had been closed off from any view from the outside world.
"Okay, we got 'Edith', let's connect it to our system." Mysterio handed the glasses to a member of his team.
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
. . . . . . . .
Everyone held a beer in their hands and shouted enthusiastically!
"While this is a huge gain, we still have a lot of work to do... OK, let's have a drink! Give me the drink, Doug!"
Amid cheers, Mysterio walked to a high place with a wine glass in hand and began his victory speech.
"To the former boss who brought us together, Tony Stark!"
“Hmm~~~”
There were boos from the audience, and it was obvious that everyone standing here hated the name Tony Stark extremely.
"That tyrant was surrounded by real gold, silver, and cutting-edge technology, but he didn't have the ability to make the best use of it! For example, the holographic system I designed, this revolutionary technological breakthrough with huge application prospects has unlimited potential! But Tony turned it into a self-healing device and renamed it the Binary Enhanced Rewind Transformation Architecture, or 'Two-structure' for short."
This technology is exactly what Tony used to demonstrate to students who wanted to start a business and gave them a huge amount of dream fund.
This holographic technology, which Tony called "dual structure" but was used by Mysterio to create a scam, cost a full 611 million US dollars to develop!
"He renamed my scientific research results 'Two Structures'. I told him that was a mistake! My technology can change the world!"
"But... he fired me straight away and said I was mentally unstable."
"But this also gave me the courage to come here with a new look and take back everything that belongs to me!"
"So let's toast Tony!"
"Cheers Tony!"
Everyone raised their glasses.
"Next is William!"
Mysterio pointed at a bald middle-aged man and said.
This William was the chief researcher who used to work at Stark Industries, but not under Tony, but under the uncle who wanted to kill Tony.
After learning about the world-changing inventions that Tony made in the cave, Tony's uncle tried to have his men recreate them, but it is obvious that not everyone is called Tony Stark, and not everyone can build an Ark Reactor and Iron Man armor with just a hammer.
So they inevitably failed.
And with Uncle Tony going to jail, William was also driven away like a stray dog.
"My 'Dual Structure' technology and your armed drone combined into one is simply invincible! Realistic illusions, real strikes, amazing, the future is limitless!"
"Thank you, brother."
William looked a little moved. When he was at Stark Industries, he always received only roars and insults from his superiors, but here, he felt respected and the warmth of home.
"Cheers to Guttman!"
"This story you made up, about a warrior named Quentin from another Earth fighting alien monsters in Europe, is so ridiculous, but it's the easiest thing for people to believe nowadays, and the fact is that everyone believes it!"
"To Victoria!"
"We created a false electromagnetic pulse at each attack site and let Fury's own satellite help us make it come true. What a talent!"
"To Janice!"
"She was the first to discover that Tony did not hand 'Edith' over to the Ministry of Defense or SHIELD, but to a young boy."
“Finally, cheers to all of you!”
"Nowadays, even if you are smarter and more professional than everyone else, no one will look at you seriously. Unless you are flying in the sky with a cape on or shooting lasers from your hands, no one will listen to you!"
"And now, I have both the cape and the laser. With our technology and 'Edith', Mysterio will become the greatest superhero on Earth!"
"Then everyone will listen attentively to the voice we make!"
"When that time comes, we will personally dethrone Iron Man and Tony Stark, and we will be the masters of the world!"
"Cheers to Mysterio!"
"Cheers to Mysterio!"
After the moving speech, everyone's excitement was aroused to the maximum. Then they drank up the wine in their hands and returned to work, or began to prepare seriously for the next big show.
The corners of the mysterious man's mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes revealed a look of satisfaction.
. . . . . . . . . .
Meanwhile, at Tony's home.
He was staring blankly at the video footage of the so-called mysterious man with a frown on his face.
He had already received the result when Peter transferred all of Edith's rights to this mysterious man.
If he wanted to stop it, he could easily turn it into a pair of ordinary glasses and revoke all of 'Edith's' permissions.
As the creator and a person with a strong desire for control, Tony had actually already made a backup plan when he chose to hand it over to Peter.
But he did not stop or remind Peter, even though he felt Peter's behavior was very disappointing.
This irresponsible behavior and endless self-doubt will be Peter's biggest obstacle on the road to becoming a leader.
How can a person without self-confidence lead others and gain their trust
So Tony chose to pretend he didn't know, ready to let Peter suffer the consequences and then make changes.
As for the mysterious man who "passively accepted" Peter's gift throughout the whole process, he had already discovered something was wrong, and he had sent people to secretly collect many clues.
But he didn't say anything, because there was no benefit for him to reveal the other party's true face now.
On the contrary, keeping this guy would make Peter realize his mistakes and the evil of human nature.
Although this was somewhat cruel to the child, he finally made this decision.
Since this is an experience, we must carry it through to the end and not give up halfway.
If the situation gets out of control in the end, Tony can confidently handle it easily.
