From now on, you are responsible for taking care of him. If he dies, I will turn your souls into candles."
Qinuo finished speaking and turned to leave.
Deadpool quickly followed.
"Boss, you're so handsome, can I touch you?"
"No."
"Please, boss, I can let you touch me too."
"...Say one more word and I'll deduct one hundred thousand from your bonus."
"..."
Watching the Demon King disappear into the Shadow, the Arkham graduates exchanged glances.
"What do we do?"
"What can we do? Of course, we take good care of the Joker. Do you want to become a candle?"
"The Joker must have done too many bad things, that's why the Demon King targeted him."
"I want to be a good person from now on."
"Where did the Joker go?"
"Find him quickly!"
A group of people got up and started searching.
"Found him, he's in the toilet, I can't hold him back, this time it's a dog's soul! Ugh~"
A series of retching sounds came from the toilet.

DC temporarily came to an end.
Back in the Marvel World, Qinuo came to the company and found Banner, Otto, Connors, Hank, and Killian.
"Young Master, what are your instructions?"
Banner asked. Gathering so many people this time surely meant something important.
"I'll give you some things. Develop their uses."
Qinuo threw out the amber gold, dionysus factor, promethium, and eternity stone he had collected this time.
"Such powerful radiation!"
Two mechanical tentacles extended from Otto's back. One scanned the metals, while the other displayed various data.
The versatile tentacles, improved with Octopus Lady's technology, could load various small devices, making one person a mobile laboratory.
The others also gathered to look at the data. Each of them had been injected with Enhancement Potion 3.0, so a little radiation was no problem.
"It's truly amazing, the ore actually contains energy."
Hank took out an eternity stone ore.
"These metals all possess magical power. Be careful when you research them, don't blow them up."
Then Qinuo introduced the characteristics of each metal. Banner and the other Dr.s' eyes lit up the more they listened, and they couldn't wait to move these metals into the laboratory warehouse.
Qinuo didn't disturb them and flew towards Tony's seaside Villa.
As soon as he landed, he heard the electronic eye at the entrance scan him.
"Hello, Mr. Qinuo."
"Jarvis, I'm looking for Tony."
Qinuo greeted him.
"Sir is currently lecturing Miss Lorna in the laboratory."
Jarvis opened the door.
"OK, I'll go find them myself."
Qinuo came to the laboratory and saw Tony explaining something to a projection screen.
Lorna on the opposite side listened carefully, occasionally lowering her head to take notes.
Her eyes were focused and firm, and her long green hair was casually tied behind her head, making her look very capable.
Tony glanced at Qinuo at the door and said.
"Alright, review what I've explained today. Next month, summarize anything you don't understand when you come, and I'll answer them one by one."
"Yes, Tony Teacher."
Lorna packed her things, ready to leave.
She turned around and saw Qinuo, stiffening for a moment, then returning to normal and nodding coldly at Qinuo.
"Hello, boss."
"Lorna, long time no see, how have you been lately?"
"Very good, every day is fulfilling, learning new knowledge."
Thinking about her life during this period, a faint smile unconsciously appeared on Lorna's face.
"Hmm, don't study too hard, sometimes a balance between work and rest is very important."
Qinuo said with concern.
"Hmm, I know, boss, I have something else to do next, can you move aside?"
Lorna finished speaking and lowered her head to organize the documents in her arms.
"Ah? Sorry."
Qinuo just realized he was blocking the door.
Lorna hurried out, and only when she reached a corner, she leaned against the wall and slowly squatted down.
"What am I doing? Will my hair be greasy if I haven't washed it for two days? And my clothes are old-fashioned like this, will I smell?"
Lorna's mind was a mess, and she covered her face with her hands.
Her heart was beating fast, and recalling her performance when she faced Qinuo just now, she felt she was absolutely terrible.
Normally, she dressed for convenience, but only in front of Qinuo did she dress youthfully, brightly, and tried various styles, wanting to know which style he liked.
Lorna bit her lip, secretly complaining to herself: "Why am I so unlucky today? Why did I happen to run into him, and in this state?"
The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she felt, as if all her previous efforts to attract Qinuo had vanished into thin air at this moment.
"Lorna, what's wrong?"
Lorna looked up.
"Miss Pepper."
Pepper was holding a stack of documents for Tony to sign. Looking at Lorna's pitiful appearance, she seemed to realize something, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
"Did Tony bully you? Come on, I'll take you to beat him up."
Putting down the documents in her hand, Pepper rolled up her sleeves, ready to seek revenge.
"Wait, Miss Peggy, Teacher didn't bully me."
Lorna quickly hugged Pepper's arm, but was still dragged along.
"Mrs. Peggy, Mr. Qinuo just came to find Sir."
Now that Pepper was completely living with Tony, Jarvis's address had also changed to Mrs.
Peggy paused her steps. Tony had naturally told her about Lorna and Qinuo, and she turned to look at Lorna, her smile full of teasing.
"Lorna~"
Lorna let go and stood still.
Her cheeks instantly flushed, her eyes darted away, not daring to meet Peggy's gaze, and her hands awkwardly fiddled with her clothes.

Qinuo watched Lorna's hurried departure and said to Tony.
"Tony, not everyone is a genius like you. She's just an adult, don't put too much pressure on her studies."
Tony gave him a look as if he were an idiot.
"Do you think I'm the one putting pressure on her?"
"Otherwise, is it me? I didn't do anything, uh... what's that look?"
Qinuo was puzzled.
It's precisely because you didn't do anything.
Tony shook his head helplessly. His student still had a long way to go. Perhaps in the next class, he should tell her about his dating experiences.
"Speak, what do you need me for? You wouldn't come looking for me unless it was important."
"Look at you, saying that. This time, I've brought you a lot of good stuff. Do you have anywhere to put things here that are radiation-proof?"
Qinuo looked around. There were only precise instruments and desks, no place to put things.
"Good stuff?"
Tony became interested. Anything Qinuo called "good stuff" would certainly be excellent.
Tony led Qinuo to the Underground Room, which was used for making suits and storing reactors.
Qinuo threw out the promethium and eternity stone, a full four boxes, and explained their characteristics.
Tony manipulated a robotic arm to take a piece of eternity stone and began to test it.
"You got this in DC, right? The energy in it is very interesting. I wonder if it can be artificially synthesized."
Tony focused on the screen in front of him.
"The energy inside is magic. The hope of artificial synthesis is not great, but you can try."
Qinuo didn't dare to speak too definitively. For Tony, who could even create a time travel machine, artificial synthesis of magic was not impossible.
Tony then tested the promethium.
