Stark Tower, top floor.
Whoosh! A super cool, iron contraption flew through the air and landed on the rooftop with a dashing and domineering pose.
Click, click, click! The iron contraption immediately began to "wriggle," directly opening a "mouth," and the playboy swaggered out.
The Iron Man armor had been upgraded generation after generation, and it was now very convenient to use.
There was no need for cumbersome mechanical arms to assist.
"Sir, have a pleasant journey, welcome back."
As soon as he walked into the luxurious hall, the attentive AI Jarvis expressed a warm welcome to the playboy.
Tony poured himself a glass of fine wine, took a hearty sip, and agreed, "Asgard isn't somewhere just anyone can go. It's definitely worth commemorating."
"Yes, sir."
"Also, the diary has just been updated again."
Jarvis agreed, then began to remind his boss.
"You should have told me about this first."
Tony put down the wine glass he had raised to his lips and took it away, no longer hesitating, he directly took out the diary.
Sure enough, he found that the latest content had appeared on it.
The playboy's interest was immediately piqued.
Loki? She's here?
Although the diary didn't have much about her, the tags associated with her were already enough to pique anyone's interest.
Female Loki + TVA fugitive + the badass who killed He Who Remains Kang.
Each of these tags could be said to have whetted the playboy's appetite.
Not to mention that female Loki combined all three.
Honestly, the playboy really wanted to see what Loki would be like as a woman!
With this interest, Tony's gaze continued to wander over the diary.
A special word immediately caught his eye.
It drew Tony's high attention.
Time Tablet.
A tablet?
Like the electronic devices everyone uses?
So, the time-traveling artifact in the TVA, the one that can freely traverse timelines and the Multiverse, is actually a tablet?
Tony really hadn't expected something like this.
Time travel, a "function" that was so incredibly awesome, was installed on a tablet?
The TVA is really down-to-earth.
The playboy couldn't help but grumble inwardly.
Of course.
What the Time Tablet looks like isn't important.
The important thing is that this thing allows people to travel through time and space at will.
So, the question is, why did Loki travel to Earth?
Could it be to escape the TVA's capture?
Tony made this inference quite logically.
But unfortunately, the diary didn't provide a clear answer.
The playboy could only remain in the guessing stage for now.
However, the fact that Loki's Time Tablet was snatched from a TVA agent was also something Tony hadn't anticipated.
It also lowered the TVA's prestige in Tony's eyes.
If Loki could handle the TVA agents, then he, Tony, certainly could too!
Although the TVA was an organization that transcended time and the Multiverse, it had already fallen from grace in the playboy's heart after the living example of Loki.
There was just one thing: the Doomsday Timeline?
Why could hiding in the Doomsday Timeline allow one to evade the TVA's capture? With the TVA's ability to transcend time and space, and even judging by the tone of the diary, the Time Tablet seemed to be a standard issue for TVA agents.
With such an overpowered setup, why would a mere doomsday become an obstacle for the TVA? A protective umbrella for Loki?
Since the TVA could even capture Loki, and not just one or two, but countless of them.
Even the elderly Loki, who could deceive Thanos, create the entire Asgard, and casually open a space portal, could be caught. It was clear that they were not to be trifled with.
And according to the various pieces of information revealed in the diary before, Loki's strength was clearly inferior to that of the elderly Loki.
So, the reason why the other party had been able to escape the TVA's capture all along was because of the doomsday!
Why was this?
Doomsday Timeline, what's so special about it for the TVA?
Tony tilted his head, lost in thought.
But due to the lack of relevant information, he couldn't come to a definitive conclusion right away.
The playboy didn't waste any more brain cells and refocused his attention on the diary.
His pupils immediately shrunk.
Multiverse Collapse!?
What the hell!
So, killing He Who Remains Kang had such serious consequences!
Didn't He Who Remains Kang establish the TVA to prevent his other variants?
According to this theory, the consequence of He Who Remains Kang's death is simply that Kang's variants no longer have anyone to suppress them.
So, the collapse of the TVA, could it be the doing of those Kang variants? Did those variants go crazy and cause the TVA's temporal hidden force to overload?
Temporal hidden force, the playboy had never heard of that term before.
But judging from the context, he could roughly guess that it was a special kind of energy, similar to an energy source.
After all, the word "overload" spoke volumes.
Considering that the TVA's devices for time travel were actually tablets...
Tony had a general idea of the TVA's style.
It seemed the TVA was going for a technological, modern route and style.
The diary's description of the Multiverse collapsing into a spaghetti-like state also serves as good evidence.
Because in physics, there is indeed a professional term for this: "spaghettification."
This term describes the situation where an object, when approaching a black hole, is stretched and deformed by the intense gravitational pull of the black hole's tidal forces.
It's a very vivid and apt description.
Through this term, the playboy has gained a more accurate understanding of the specific circumstances of the Multiverse's collapse described in the diary.
Everything, everything, is stretched and elongated, turning into spaghetti! Cruel.
I have to say, the future of this Multiverse collapse is truly too cruel.
Thinking of this, Tony's expression couldn't help but darken a bit.
So, the threats everyone faces include Thanos, Celestial Tiamut, and potentially Infinity Ultron, and so on.
And now there's a Multiverse collapse?
Even more frustrating is that with those other threats, everyone has some way to deal with them, some way to prepare in advance.
But this time?
They don't even have a chance to get involved!
After all, the diary made it very clear.
The Multiverse collapse was entirely caused by Loki.
And Loki?
She's running around the Multiverse with the Time Tablet she stole from the TVA.
They might not even be able to find her, let alone stop her.
However, the blame for this doesn't seem to rest entirely on Loki.
After all, Ant-Man and the Wasp killed a Kang in the Quantum Realm.
The relationship between that "Quantum Kang" and He Who Remains Kang is unknown, but what he did was very similar to He Who Remains Kang, only far more extreme.
[He also destroyed a large number of branch timelines to prevent the timelines from growing wildly and colliding, thus preventing the collapse of the Multiverse.]
[This is also the reason why Quantum Kang was exiled to the Quantum Realm by the Kang Council.]
[So, the later great collapse of the Multiverse might also be related to the death of Quantum Kang.]
"So, this is the truth of the Multiverse?"
"Everything is destined to perish?"
Thor was completely stunned, unable to accept all this.
After all, the diary had made it very clear.
If the various branch timelines were not interfered with, all the time branches would collide with each other, thereby destroying the entire Multiverse.
So, this is the reason why the TVA, the guardian of the Sacred Timeline, resets various branched timelines?
The playboy had expressed his doubts about this before.
Since He Who Remains Kang's purpose in establishing the TVA was to prevent other Kang variants…
Then why does it control all branched timelines outside of the Sacred Timeline?
By intervening through resetting them?
Could it be that, aside from the Sacred Timeline, all other branched timelines contain Kang variants?
Alright, even if that's the case, then why does the TVA reset things that are clearly unrelated to Kang? Like Loki's escape.
The diary has actually spoiled a lot about Loki being captured by the TVA.
And it had nothing to do with Kang.
In other words, the TVA did indeed reset the time branches besides Kang's variants.
Why did the TVA do that?
This had always been the playboy's question.
The playboy had also been wondering if the TVA had other purposes besides dealing with those Kang variants.
At this moment, Tony finally knew the answer.
So the TVA kept resetting timelines, and another purpose of guarding the Sacred Timeline was to prevent those branched timelines from colliding with each other?
In other words, if the TVA didn't do this and let those branched timelines develop naturally, the Multiverse would eventually be doomed?
What a fucked-up reality!
So in the end, the TVA was actually a good guy?
Tony fell silent, unsure how to assess the TVA.
Even though, on a personal level, Tony didn't like the TVA playing God and arbitrarily controlling other people's lives.
But the contributions the TVA made towards the Multiverse, the playboy wouldn't just dismiss them.
Besides that, Tony had gained more information about that "Quantum Kang."
The playboy hadn't expected that the guy was actually exiled to the Quantum Realm by the Kang Council.
The diary had previously revealed that after Quantum Kang was eliminated, the Kang Council was alarmed and summoned all the Kangs within the Multiverse.
Judging from this, the playboy had subconsciously thought the two were in cahoots.
It turned out that, after all this, Quantum Kang was actually the Kangs' enemy?
Quantum Kang's appearance in the Quantum Realm was also due to the Kang Council's exile!
So that was the reason for Quantum Kang's time ship being damaged?
Then, a key question arises.
The diary made it very clear that the Kang Council exiled Quantum Kang because he destroyed a large number of timelines.
This reveals a certain bias of the Kang Council towards the Multiverse.
Adding to this, the TVA's purpose is also to stop those Kang variants.
So it seems that the Kang Council has completely opposite goals.
Or rather, Quantum Kang's actions and the TVA's actions are in serious conflict with the interests of the Kang Council.
Tony sensed something.
"Conqueror Kang."
"Could it be that what they want to conquer is the Multiverse?"
Suddenly, Tony's expression slightly changed, and a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.
The playboy felt like he had grasped something.
Ever since the diary first revealed the term "Conqueror Kang," Tony had been pondering what Conqueror Kang wanted to conquer.
And now, Tony felt like he had found the answer.
His guess did indeed align with the currently known information.
If Conqueror Kang's goal truly is to conquer the Multiverse, then he is naturally at odds with the TVA.
After all, if they were allowed to run amok in the Multiverse, countless branched timelines would inevitably be born!
Didn't the diary also say that Conqueror Kang's level of badassery surpasses that of Thanos?
And Thanos?
He directly eliminated half of the universe's living beings.
Going even further, wouldn't it have to be Multiverse-level?
Besides that.
There is another very important piece of intel that was revealed here.
Quantum Kang, like the original Wasp, was also trapped in the Quantum Realm!
So even someone as powerful as Kang couldn't escape the Quantum Realm?
If that were the case, it wouldn't be a bad way to prevent Conqueror Kang.
[Fortunately, Loki was awesome enough to successfully control her time-slipping ability at the very moment the last corner of the TVA collapsed.]
[Even without the Time Tablet, she can now freely traverse any timeline with her own power!]
[The most crucial thing is that Loki's travels and changes across the various timelines will no longer create any time branches.]
[In other words, Loki can completely rewrite the timeline as she pleases!]
[And Loki herself intends to do just that.]
[Wow, Loki is about to become the God of Stories!]
[This is a transcendent being that surpasses the Multiverse!]
Time Slip.
Another brand new term.
However, after carefully considering the meaning of "slip" and its context, Tony understood what it meant in an instant.
It was obvious that before the Multiverse's great collapse, Loki already possessed a kind of ability to travel through various timelines.
It's just that at that time, Loki probably couldn't control her ability very well.
That's why she would "slip" uncontrollably.
