Chapter 6

“Yes, sir. Nowadays, when people around the world mention superheroes, they’re referring to Captain America!” JARVIS replied.

Even in this world, United States is still number one. With United States’s powerful media and propaganda abilities, the existence of Captain America has created an entirely new term: superhero.

So in this world, when people talk about superheroes, they’re basically referring to Captain America.

“So... wait, wait, let me get this straight!” Tony Stark also felt like his brain was struggling to keep up. “So according to what he said—let’s just assume for now that he’s telling the truth and not lying—he came from another world, or rather, another universe, and isn’t a native human?”

“Yes, sir. But considering that his life trajectory is completely intact, my deduction is that it might be something like soul possession!” JARVIS replied.

“Soul possession, that explains it!” Tony Stark said. “No wonder the records say his personality changed drastically, like he’s a completely different person! But can you analyze from his words and actions what kind of world he originally came from?”

“Based on his words and actions during this period, he was probably also a human before he crossed over!” JARVIS analyzed.

Chapter 5: Wonder Woman’s First Appearance

Hearing this, Tony Stark let out a slight sigh of relief, because what he feared most was that Brian Carter wasn’t human before he crossed over—like, a demon, or an alien, or something else. In that moment, Tony Stark realized that although he’d never thought of himself as a racist, he was, in fact, a staunch human supremacist. It’s just that, since humans haven’t encountered aliens yet, this latent mindset hasn’t been noticed by most people.

If Brian Carter hadn’t been human before, then in Tony Stark’s eyes, it would basically be a case of demonic possession—a story template straight out of the Bible. He would report it immediately and deal with it right away, even if it might involve some prophecy about the future.

“So, you’re saying that his previous world was also a human world, and somehow he’s able to know about our world?” Tony Stark said, with a hint of disbelief in his voice.

For good reason—it was just too far-fetched.

As for parallel universes, in the current scientific community, it’s considered the cutting edge of research. How cutting edge?

Everything about parallel universes is still in the realm of science fiction; there’s currently no evidence to support their existence. And yet now, he seemed to have discovered evidence of a parallel universe.

If this discovery got out, it would probably shake the entire scientific community, overturning many theories and forcing many scientific subfields to start over from scratch.

“Based on the diary entries, the probability of this is as high as ninety-five percent!” JARVIS replied.

Tony Stark stroked the small goatee on his chin. If that was really the case, then the credibility of Brian Carter’s words would increase dramatically.

The amount of information in Brian Carter’s diary was simply overwhelming—almost unbelievably so.

“So, in their universe’s observation and naming, our universe is called the Marvel Universe?” Tony Stark forced himself to calm down and analyze. “And there’s another universe, the DC Universe, and this Wonder Woman is a superhero from the DC Universe!”

“Originally, the two universes probably wouldn’t interfere with each other, but now, there might be interference between the two universes. This Wonder Woman has come from the DC Universe to our Marvel Universe. No, it’s actually interference among three universes—this Brian Carter came from a third universe, didn’t he?” Tony Stark’s eyes grew brighter as he spoke. “That third universe has the ability to observe other universes, and our universe is within their observation range. Brian Carter is probably just an ordinary person in that third universe, so after coming to our universe, he feels uneasy, but he also knows some things about our universe’s future timeline.

In other words, the dimension of his universe might be higher than ours...”

According to current scientific speculation, a universe with a higher dimension than ours, when observing our dimension, can see not only space but also time—maybe even see the entire span from the beginning to the end of the world at a glance.

Time means nothing to them.

In Tony Stark’s eyes, Brian Carter’s previous life might have been in such a universe.

“And that Wonder Woman... she seems to be a woman. JARVIS, search the latest news for any incidents involving a female superhero with superhuman strength!” Tony Stark said.

“The search results are ready. Would you like me to project them?” JARVIS responded after a moment. “Project them!” Tony Stark said.
