I... am inevitable

Steve Rogers had also heard Tony talk about the 'death premonition' he had seen during the quiz game.

It seemed that it would be confirmed at this moment.

Natasha Romanoff raised an eyebrow. "But Tony told me that he saw himself dying in outer space?"

Steve Rogers said in a deep voice, "I know, and it's because of this that I immediately excluded Tony when I answered the question. I also always thought he would die in outer space, but now that I think about it carefully, this area of the Avengers' base has been subjected to Thanos' bombardment. It can roughly be considered Earth now. I remember Tony also said that his death premonition was not clear, very vague."

Black Widow could only sigh and say, "Tony... he's always like this. No matter how harsh the words that come out of his mouth, his heart is the kindest among us. He's also the one with the strongest sense of responsibility. But... if I die, I die, there's no one to worry about. But he just had such a cute child! Steve, I'm thinking, if our future selves don't go find him..."

Steve Rogers shook his head. "No, Natasha, you should understand Tony. Even if we don't go find him, he will come to us."

If the Avengers were a group of people with a strong sense of responsibility, then Tony Stark was definitely the top among them.

This seemingly carefree playboy, the heir to a wealthy family, had a rare pure heart.

In the Battle of New York, the one who carried the nuclear warhead and rushed into space alone was him. And the one who sacrificed his life to snap the fingers was also him.

While Captain America, Black Widow, Thor, and others were deeply moved, the final video of the last question began to play on the screen.

This video was a continuation of the previous one. Captain Marvel with her superhuman strength, was suppressing Thanos, who had put on the Infinity Gauntlet.

But Thanos was still Thanos, not just cannon fodder like Proxima Midnight or Black Dwarf...

Years of wars in all directions, slaughter, conquest, had honed his extraordinary skills and combat awareness. After falling into a disadvantageous position in the direct confrontation with Captain Marvel's power.

He had an impulsive urge and used his left hand to press the Power Stone on the right glove. Captain Marvel's face changed, and in the next instant, she was punched away by Thanos, who had been empowered by the Power Stone!

It was at this moment that Tony Stark, who was covered in wounds and exhausted, got up from the ground and looked at Doctor Strange.

In theory, the most powerful person on the field, besides Captain Marvel, should be the newly appointed Sorcerer Supreme. He should have participated in the siege against Thanos.

But he was restricted by the terrain. The battlefield was a depression, with a massive lake above it. After Thanos ordered the shelling of the warships, the dam of the lake was blown up, and the rushing lake water poured down onto the battlefield.

Doctor Strange had to step in to control the water...

Of course, some viewers thought that this guy was slacking off.

But it couldn't be denied that Strange played the role of a "prophet." He had used the Time Stone to see countless futures of fighting against Thanos, and among tens of millions of futures, they only won this battle once.

Tony Stark had asked him before, could they win this time? At that time, Doctor Strange's answer was ambiguous, and now, facing the tired eyes of Iron Man, he didn't say much, just made a gesture.

Tony Stark immediately looked enlightened; he knew what he had to do.

At this moment, Thanos, cleverly taking off the Power Stone, punched Captain Marvel after he had already won. Even the super-powerful energy lasers seemed unable to leave a mark on Thanos.

Taking a deep breath, Thanos put the glove back on, then raised his chin arrogantly and said, "I... am inevitable!"

With those words, he snapped his fingers.

At this very moment, countless viewers outside screamed and roared in exasperation. What's going on?

The Avengers had prepared for so long and made so much effort and sacrifice, but in the end, Thanos snapped his fingers.

"Oh my God, we are dead. Thanos is invincible; no one can stand against him. Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, these superheroes can't defeat him. Our future is doom!"

"Why? Why did we struggle so hard, only to let Thanos snap his fingers? Black Widow's sacrifice was all in vain!"

"Hey, guys, calm down. This question has been made very clear; the third person to snap his fingers wasn't Thanos; it was Iron Man! The Avengers' plan succeeded; they defeated Thanos!"

The majority of people are easily influenced by emotions, and they were immersed in these future videos, forgetting what the original question was. Even some rational people had their voices drowned out by the noisy crowd.

But it didn't matter; soon, the impact of the video on the screen would silence everyone...

In the video, after Thanos, as if a victor, said his iconic line, "I am inevitable!" Nothing happened!

The first time he snapped his fingers, he wiped out half of the universe's life in an instant. After snapping his fingers again, he intended to destroy this ungrateful universe and then reshape it into a universe that satisfied him...

But after snapping his fingers, nothing happened!

The noisy audience outside and even Thanos himself were stunned. He looked at the Infinity Gauntlet on his right hand in astonishment. There was nothing wrong with the gauntlet; it was just that the six Infinity Stones on the back of his hand had disappeared!

At this moment, Tony Stark knelt on the ground, slowly raised his right hand, and the six Infinity Stones floated beside him!

Seeing this scene, Steve Rogers, watching from outside the video, exclaimed, "I knew Tony would keep something up his sleeve. The Infinity Gauntlet was made by him, and he even made two sets!"

But Natasha Romanoff sighed and said, "Tony is always like this, always preparing for the final battle, even if it means sacrificing his life."

Scott Lang marvelled, "I understand why so many people love him. He is Iron Man, a true hero!"
