Thor Headed to New York

Jane and Daisy first called Dr. Erik to tell him they were taking a trip to New York.

Then Jane drove Tony to the airport. New Mexico was over a thousand kilometers from New York, so driving there was obviously impossible.

Besides, Thor had already agreed that as long as they helped him, he would tell them some things they wanted to know.

So Jane paid out of pocket for two plane tickets, while Daisy paid for her own.

Daisy bought her ticket while saying that chances to visit Tycoon Tony Stark’s home in America were rare.

The three of them boarded a plane bound for New York.

Throughout the entire trip, Jane kept observing Thor.

She found that although Thor was somewhat amazed by some of Blue Star’s technology, he did not make a huge fuss over it.

Clearly, Blue Star’s technology was merely novel to Thor. It was not as though he had never seen anything similar before.

"What kind of person is Tony Stark?"

At that moment, Thor looked at the excited Daisy and asked.

Although Tony Stark had not shown any hostility, Thor felt it was still necessary to learn more about him.

"If you want me to go over everything he’s done since childhood, I can’t remember it all."

"But if we’re talking about some simple labels for Tony Stark…"

"A world-famous genius inventor, an arms manufacturer, and one of America’s top tycoons with money powers."

"One of New York’s most notorious playboys. He’s slept with tons of women, and every one of them was famous."

"He’s also a superhero. After creating the Iron Man armor, he saved many people."

Daisy fiddled with her fingers, raising one each time she listed a label.

"So he isn’t a bad person?"

Thor asked thoughtfully after hearing the final point.

Daisy probably did not know Tony Stark that well, so what she said represented the public’s general impression of him.

"Mm."

Daisy nodded without the slightest hesitation at the question.

In the scientific community, Tony Stark could be considered a titan. He had created countless technologies that others admired.

"Then I can rest easy."

Having received confirmation, Thor’s unease subsided, and he smiled.

When he had spoken with Tony Stark earlier, he had noticed that Tony seemed to have long known about his arrival and his weapon.

With his current strength reduced to less than a tenth of what it had been, he naturally did not have much confidence.

But after learning that the other party was most likely a good person, he had far fewer concerns.

Jane had many things she wanted to ask Thor, but they were on a plane now, surrounded by all sorts of people.

If she asked carelessly and Thor answered without concern, the people around them might hear and cause trouble.

Therefore, Jane sorted through the questions and things she wanted to learn, planning to have a proper talk with Thor after he retrieved his hammer.


Soon, several hours passed.

At noon, Jane, Daisy, and Thor took a car to Stark’s estate.

"What an enviable life."

As they drove up the mountain, Daisy looked at the luxurious building built halfway up the slope, her entire face pressed against the window.

They were still racking their brains over research and struggling to make a living for the future.

When a carefree, absurdly wealthy tycoon appeared before them, such a stark contrast would inspire envy and longing in anyone who did not resent the rich.

"Can we really go in together?"

Seeing Daisy’s rather impolite appearance, Jane was full of embarrassment, but she still looked at Thor and asked nervously.

"You helped me. Of course it’s no problem to bring you along for a look."

Thor smiled as he spoke.

Although Tony Stark’s luxurious estate looked highly advanced, Thor was a god and the prince of Asgard.

He had seen untold splendor and wealth long ago, so this could at most surprise him. It would not shock him.

"I can only take you this far."

"You’ll have to walk the rest of the way yourselves."

After dropping the three of them off in front of the estate gates, the driver spoke.

Too many people wanted to visit Tony Stark, but most of them could not pass through these gates.

"Alright, thank you."

Jane nodded slightly, thanked him, and got out of the car.

After the driver turned around and left, a pleasant, magnetic male voice rang out.

"Mr. Thor, Ms. Jane Foster, Ms. Daisy Lewis."

"My master has been waiting for quite some time. Please come in."

The estate gates opened automatically.

"Who said that?"

Hearing the pleasant voice, Daisy looked around.

"There is no need to be surprised. My name is Jarvis, an intelligent AI created by Mr. Tony."

Jarvis spoke in response.

"Tony Stark actually created an intelligent AI?"

Daisy’s eyes widened and her mouth fell open as she spoke in shock.

She knew Tony Stark was a super genius, but she had not expected him to be this much of a genius.

Intelligent AI was still only a concept at this point in time, yet Tony Stark had quietly created one already.

"Follow the lights, and you will find Mr. Tony at the end."

Jarvis said.

Thor looked down the path ahead as the surrounding lights came on, then started walking.

"Jarvis, was it? Tony Stark seems to know a lot about me."

Thor asked as he walked.

"Mr. Tony has heard of your great name, but he does not know you particularly well."

Jarvis answered.

"Heard of me? Where did he hear about me?"

Thor’s eyes flickered as he asked.

"Various mythological biographies and children’s books on Blue Star contain records about you."

"For anything more specific, you may discuss it slowly once you meet Mr. Tony."

Jarvis’s answer was flawless.

"If he only learned about me from books, it would be impossible for him to believe my identity so quickly."

Thor’s heart sank as he spoke.

"You seem to have some concerns, Mr. Thor."

"So Mr. Tony asked me to relay this: as long as you do not act on your own initiative, he guarantees that he will not attack you."

"He even hopes you can take Mjolnir away as soon as possible."

Jarvis paused before speaking.

Upon hearing this, Thor knew that from the moment he had set foot on this mountain, all his movements and words had likely been under Tony’s watch.

That made Thor thoughtful. He said nothing more for the moment. Once he met Tony Stark, he would know whether the man truly had any schemes.
