Hello Everyone, a new work has been started called "Surviving the Endless Sea" on my account. Please check it out.

What Thanos had said to Tony immediately attracted the attention of countless people and a wave of doubt swept through the comment section.
"Those who are cursed with knowledge, what does Thanos mean?"
"I don't understand what's going on."
"Thinking about it carefully, this sentence means that Tony is cursed with knowledge. How much knowledge does Tony actually possess?"
"Looks like there are things in that world that we don't know."
"The tyrant seems to know everything."
"He owns the stone, after all."
"What Thanos means is that there are many people with a tremendous amount of knowledge, and Thanos is one of them?"
Question marks appeared over the foreheads of countless people.
The confrontation between Tony and Thanos had already attracted the attention of countless viewers. At this moment, however, Thanos' strange words had added another layer of mystery to the battle.
No one could understand exactly what he meant. Could it be that Tony's vast knowledge was itself a burden? Or was Thanos hinting that he knew something that the people of Terra did not?
Before anyone could figure it out, the battle on the screen continued.
A cluster of small missiles bombarded Thanos, but Thanos raised his arms and flames enveloped him. Immediately after Tony's back, the four vector flight wings bounced back. His leg nano-surged and combined into a giant steel block, then he kicked the tyrant's face violently.
Thanos stepped back, and Tony landed with a backflip. There was a clicking sound around the legs, and the support claws snapped open. He grabbed the ground tightly, then a large number of nanomaterials gathered in his left and right hands and turned into two pusher units similar to the one just now.
Terrible energy drives Tony's Nanosuit to form a big bow as the propeller ignites the jet instantly. The ultimate power exploded, fast as thunder; huge propulsion devices slammed into the head of the rushing tyrant.
Boom! The tyrant was blown away directly and crashed into a rock. Thanos rushes over and grabs Tony's nano helmet, breaking it apart. Tony was slightly taken aback but condensed again in an instant.
Bang! Thanos' huge fist swiped at Tony's face, and Tony flew out. Suddenly, a fist clenched, the purple rough stone burst through the gold gloves, and a purple thunder blasted towards Tony. Facing the terrifying stone power, Tony condensed a long shield and took a stance.
Boom! The purple energy wave hits the shield. Under great power, Tony was still being pushed backwards with the long shield hard on his shoulders.
Suddenly, Tony tilted the long shield, and the shock wave bounced diagonally. Tony's left foot evolves into a nanoclaw again, with a thrust burst-fire, a roundhouse kick directly to Thanos' left hand, making it stuck hard into the ground.
At the same time, the waist strength is activated, and the left hand is instantly covered as a thruster. A terrifying burst of power and all the strength of the whole body are condensed into this huge steel fist. A bang slammed into the face of Thanos, who was stuck.
Suddenly, a small wound appeared on Thanos' face, and blood seeped out.
From start to finish, the whole process is like flowing water. There is no sloppiness whatsoever. Every attack by Tony is like it's been calculated long ago. Precise and incredibly smooth. As a result, Thanos was injured.
The entire broadcast fell into an uproar. Countless viewers immediately stood up from their seats, their eyes fixed on the tiny wound on Thanos' face. For a moment, almost everyone found it difficult to believe what they were seeing. Thanos had actually been injured. Not only had Tony survived the overwhelming assault, but he had managed to make the seemingly invincible tyrant bleed.
"Thanos got hurt! He never got hurt!"
"The few attacks just now were so stunning!"
"Tony's nano armor is simply infinite possibilities!"
"Who can give me a set of this kind of armor!"
"It's so awesome, how can you use a thruster like this? I thought it could only be turned into a thruster under my feet."
"With the body of a mortal, stand shoulder to shoulder with gods!"
"Yes! Thanos is a god with four Infinity Stones, but Tony can hurt him!"
"Compared to Strange's magic just now, Tony's technology is not inferior at all!"
"Even stronger in some respects! He is the most handsome in the universe!"
"Iron Man High Energy!"
"Thanos: I was having breakfast that day, and you threw the bomb over."
"I seriously doubt that Tony also has a stone!"
"The seventh stone?"
"The only man who made Thanos bleed."
Tony versus Thanos had completely ignited the boiling blood of everyone watching the live broadcast. The confrontation between technology and divine power had reached a level that almost no one had imagined. This was no longer merely a battle between two powerful individuals. It was a collision between two completely different paths of power.
On one side stood Thanos, a terrifying existence wielding the power of the Infinity Stones.
On the other stood Tony, a mortal who relied entirely on his own intelligence and technology.
Yet, at this moment, the latter had actually wounded the former.
At Essen Heavy Industries Group, Director Engineer Astor could only smile bitterly. The brief exchange that had just unfolded on the screen had completely overturned his understanding of advanced equipment.
Tony's Nano Armor could evolve into countless specialized components within an instant. Every transformation appeared to possess an astonishing amount of destructive power, and every adjustment was made according to the demands of the battle. They had completely shattered everything he previously understood about equipment.
"Where is this technology? Is it science fiction?" Astor couldn't help but complain.
Every time he thought he could learn something from Tony's armor, another transformation appeared on the screen and completely overturned his previous assumptions. It was simply too outrageous. He had already studied countless forms of advanced equipment, but none of them could compare to the flexibility and terrifying combat potential displayed by Tony's armor.
And it wasn't only Astor. At this moment, almost everyone on Terra who had any connection to military equipment or advanced engineering had fallen into silence. After witnessing the terrifying performance of the nano armor, their confidence had been thoroughly shaken.
"This set of armor is not something we can touch."
"We couldn't even get to its point-small structure."
The gap was simply too enormous. They weren't talking about being slightly behind Tony. They weren't even standing at the same starting line.
In the Administration, a military contractor couldn't help but exclaim. "Tony is really amazing. Not only does he have the knowledge and ability to build a super armor, but he also has the strength to exert the ability of the battle armor for a long time!"
He paused for a moment before adding with a complicated expression: "I really agree with what Thanos said now."
The Director fell into deep thought. "Strange said that the only chance will be with Tony?"
Hearing this, most of the people around him shook their heads. "It shouldn't be. Thor's axe may be the final chance. Tony's armor is strong, but it's always on the technology side, and I've seen the nano wear of the armor."
Their assessment was not meant to diminish Tony's achievement. On the contrary, they had already recognized just how extraordinary he was. However, the power of Thanos was simply too terrifying. Even if Tony could temporarily suppress him through technology and combat techniques, defeating him was another matter entirely.
Johan nodded in agreement. "But I have to say, Tony is really amazing. With the body of a mortal, you can stand shoulder to shoulder with gods."
The others fell silent. No one could refute those words. Tony had already proven himself.
Everyone turned their attention back to the screen. The next moment, the atmosphere of the entire live broadcast changed. The previous excitement gradually disappeared, and a suffocating sense of danger began to spread.
After being wounded, Thanos touched his wound, and there was blood on his fingers. He said, "All that for a drop of blood."
A sneer at the corners as a hefty hand vigorously lifts. Tony was blown away by him, then he punched Tony. Tony lay on the ground before he crossed your hands to resist.
Bang! A solid punch landed heavily on Tony, then Thanos' fist rained down on Tony. Bang! Bang! Bang!
There's nanomatter coming off the armor. Thanos grabbed Tony by the neck, and the power of the original stone on the Infinity Gloves exploded. Thanos walked towards Tony with a cruel smile.
Tony raised his wrist when he saw this, and the palm released a yellow-colored laser light. It's just that Thanos easily resists with gloves. Tony's legs and body-ah nano matter flocked to his hands while simultaneously releasing laser energy. But Thanos' Infinity Gauntlet absorbs energy, walks up to Tony, and punches hard.
Bang! A large amount of nanomatter bursts, and the nano armor has been unable to take shape.
Thanos sneered and punched again, but Tony took it with one hand. At the same time, the right hand back, nanomatter surges to become a short blade and suddenly stabs at Thanos.
But the tyrant reacts very quickly. He grabbed the short edge and directly broke the short blade with force. Turn the tip of the sword, and a poof sound penetrated Tony's stomach. The sharp point of the sword protruded from Tony's back, and it was stained with blood. The great pain made his whole body stiffen before he sat on a rock.
The atmosphere in the broadcast instantly froze as that bloody sword tip pierced through Tony's body. Just moments ago, Tony had been fighting with astonishing precision. He had even managed to make Thanos bleed.
Yet now, the situation had completely reversed. Tony, who had been so powerful just moments earlier, had been pierced by his own weapon. The sharp blade had gone straight through his stomach, with its bloodied tip protruding from his back.
Viewers fell silent. That scene struck them far harder than they had expected. Tony's attack had been so impressive that everyone had unconsciously begun to believe he could continue fighting against Thanos. But reality had ruthlessly shattered that illusion.
"Tony is personally carrying the attack of Thanos, but this is the result."
"It's nano-material! The nanomaterial on his body is not enough, and in the end, it is a short blade that condenses the nanomaterial in other parts; otherwise, he will not be injured."
"Damn!"
"Just a little bit!"
"Tony is already great!"
"The whole body armor is tattered."
"No! Thanos, if you dare to touch Tony, even just a hair, I will kill you."
"Dear Tony..."
"My favorite was knocked down with only the last bit of armor left."
"I really like Iron Man; this is the favorite I have encountered in so many previous lives."
"Nano is not enough; repair is not coming."
"It's so sad, Tony has exhausted his means."
"The tyrant smashed the Hulk with one punch, and you still say that his fist is not good?"
Countless people were overwhelmed by sorrow.
They stared at Tony's painful expression on the screen, and many felt as though they were experiencing the same pain themselves.
At this moment, everyone had temporarily forgotten the importance of the original time stone.
All their attention had been drawn toward Tony.
The man who had just displayed such astonishing technological power was now lying helplessly before Thanos.
Thanos pinned Tony to the ground while Tony's head: "You have my respect, Stark. When I'm done, half of humanity will still be alive. I hope they remember you."
Thanos stretches out his left hand, and the gloves shimmer with raw-stone light to kill Tony.
The audience watching is about to explode...
Suddenly, a voice sounded. "Stop."
Thanos turned back; it was Strange struggling to sit up.
Strange looked at Thanos: "Spare his life... and I will give you the stone."
Thanos tilted his head; it seems that he did not expect this move. "No tricks."
Strange shook his head as Tony struggled. "Don't."
Strange didn't listen to Tony. Instead, he extends his right hand. A green stone appeared out of thin air. Tony watched as Strange handed the stone to Thanos while his body and mind were in severe pain.
When Thanos is holding the Stone of Time, he places the stone in the indent on his thumb. The Infinity Gloves exploded suddenly, unleashing a powerful force. Thanos clenched his fists, and his face seemed to enjoy the scouring of this force.
Thanos looked at the only remaining dent on the glove. "One to go."
Suddenly, bullets fell as Quill charged from a distance. Just as Thanos sneered, the space storm behind him swallowed him, and he disappeared on Titan in an instant.
On Terra, countless audience members fell completely silent at this moment. The exchange had happened too quickly. One moment, Tony was on the verge of death. The next, Strange had surrendered the Stone of Time to save him. And then, before anyone could even react, Thanos had vanished into the space storm.
The meaning behind Strange's decision was obvious. He had sacrificed the Stone of Time to preserve Tony's life. But no one knew whether that decision had truly been the right one. After all, Strange had previously claimed that there was only one path to victory. Was Tony really the key to that path? Or had Strange just given Thanos the final piece he needed?
In the High Council, Evonne's face was extremely pale. The domineering attitude she had displayed earlier had completely disappeared. Her hands were clenched tightly, and her eyes remained fixed on the screen. When the final verdict truly arrived, even she could no longer remain calm. For the first time, everyone in the High Council understood just how terrifying the next development might be.
And the battle was far from over.
