《Multiverse of Marvel》126. The future is now, old man
Advertisement
The next all the major news channels were buzzing with the news of the philanthropist Wilson Fisk. His cruel deeds and double life were in the newspapers and major news channels. Unsurprisingly, Wilson Fisk himself vanished when the news came out.
Police forces all over the world were notified about this and there was an APB out for him. He was given the order to catch dead or alive. SHIELD too had posted a lookout for him. The Hand which had dealings with Fisk also got scared away and went underground and hid themselves.
John who saw all this in the morning news was happy. The first phase of his plan was complete, now it was time for the second phase and that was occupying the underground world and only person was capable for this.
Ra's al Ghul.
He ordered Ra's to start his infiltration into NY underground world and take over everything possible and ultimately the whole of USA. He could create a legend of Ra's in the underworld. This would lead many to watch the Green Arrow and Batman, in turn fueling his fan values.
"Sheesh! That took long enough. Now it's time to accumulate more fan values this year as only one character will come to life this year. I wonder when I will get enough fan values to get my new world."
It was already February when the incident with Fisk ended. He ordered Geralt to pass his time and he didn't need to touch 'The Hand' now. If he killed Madame Gao or Nobu all the rest accomplices will hide and it would be hard to bring them out.
"Look out for the Purple Man. The rest don't bother. The Defenders doesn't matter." John ordered Geralt. John had great prejudice against the series of Defenders from his last life. They ruined the story by a lot and he didn't even care to watch the second seasons of both Jessica Jones and Iron Fist.

The next month was an eventful one. Tony and John held a press conference on the 3rd of May. The news they released shook humanity to it's core. Even after hundred years in the future people always pointed out that this day was where humanity took a massive step to a more modern society.
"Hello everyone! As you all have known, me and John have built a new company called Umbrella Corporation. Last year was an eventful one. This earth faced a crisis we never have expected. But this also opened our eyes and made us realize that we are not alone. The last few months me and various other scientists worked hard and fast to deliver us a new technology. And here we are to show the first prototype that will change humanity forever. I present to you'Tron'."
Tony pointed out to a wall. The wall moved itself and opened. Out came a futuristic car. The car looked beautiful and a beautiful sleek design. But the most eye catching part were the polygon shaped golden lines all over it's body. It shined from time to time and gave more character to the car.
"You must be wondering what is so different about the car. Well let me tell you, this car with a single charge can drive up to 1000 kms even in most disastrous conditions. This car can even go further if it gets enough solar power. The only thing you will have to care about now is the maintenance of it which is also cheap and easily affordable."
This statement alone shook all the reporters. They couldn't believe their ears by what Tony said. But then they remembered since aliens were present in the world then such technology might exist outside earth but they weren't sure if this technology belonged to aliens.

"I know what you are thinking. Thinking that it's an alien tech. But let me assure you that this technology is genuinely human. We had help along the way for sure but it's made by me and a team of scientists. We already sent the car for a trial run of 700 kms without a second charge and it ran perfectly."
"This is Umbrella Corporation's first model and future models would also be more efficient. This is a new kind of solar harnessing technology and this can be used in our houses, ships, airplanes and in every other sector. It would be cheap and affordable and more highly efficient."
"We have just taken our first path to a cleaner and brighter future. Don't want to leave a shitty planet to our next generation now. Can we? The company will take orders after the car passes a rigorous test by the authorities and would be accepting booking after September. So don't think twice as this will be a lifetime opportunity for you to be a part of something greater."
The news reporters started flocking Tony after that with tons of questions. Tony for the first time was happy to answer questions as he was proud of what they achieved in the last few months. Thanks to the All-Spark and help of Wayne and Banner it was easier but this new car had his sweat and tears too.

A World With or Without Aliens
Nothing matters. It's not my opinion, it's a scientific fact. This is neither good nor bad, it just... is. I watched my entire country burn, fried on a patriotic pan after some jerk fired a bunch of nukes at the docile fleet of alien ships hovering over us. Who gave this moron such power? I don't know. Everyone involved is most likely dead by now. As for me, I can't die. I feel pain like a normal person would (I think), but no matter how terrible the conditions, I will never die or pass out. Fortunately, a lot of alien technology survived its crash to Earth, so I get to spend some time playing with it until Mr. Author gets bored and decides to screw up my life. Beware, this has a "harem" tag. If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm the main character and am therefore subject to this novel's timeline. While this bars me from the sweet ignorance of Chapter 1's me, it does have other perks... for example, I can tell you that heroine number one is personally responsible for kil-!? H-hey, back off! I'm your character, so if you didn't want me to be like this, then you should've written me differently! Randomguy here! In all seriousness, this novel is meant to explore the concept of nihilism as a post-apocalyptic/supernatural-scifi/satire told from a nihilistic introvert's first-person perspective. As you heard from my unsettled main character, each heroine is going to be a different type of horrifying socio/psychopath with dark motives and dangerous abilities (most of which are psychological). Why would I do something like this? Because I am, in reality, a nihilist who is often frustrated by weird things, like unrealistically dramatic stories, the industrialization of art (specifically music), and people who think swimming in brown creekwater for five hours is a "fun" activity. Don't get me wrong, neither me nor my character are depressed, we're just malcontents who make a lot of nerd references. I feel like the true essence of an "everything is worthless" perspective is lost on most pop-culture figures. The closest character I can think of at the moment is Rick from Rick and Morty, who is a drunk, angry nihilist that experienced tremendous loss. I, personally, find this belligerent state of mind to be very relatable, and have incorperated it into every chapter's introduction. Here, the main character talks directly to the reader (and me), shamelessly complaining about some semi-relevant facet of society, which probably doesn't make much sense... it's not really supposed to, though. These "angry nihilist" moments are just a peak into the main character's everyday existence, and also act as miniature rage-journals for me. It will sometimes take a subjectively 'positive' turn, but not very often. This is because reality isn't good or bad, "it just... is". I will eventually bring it full-circle to optimistic nihilism, since that seems to be a more practical way to live (and by "practical", I mean "doesn't create mental health issues"). It is, of course, a satire. I did this because most unnecessarily emotional moments or people usually make me feel kind of awkward, so I decided to mock them. That is, I plan to mock the characteristics about them I don't like in characters based solely off said characteristics. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my story!
