Nevertheless, Red Skull did attempt assassination. He not only used nuclear weapons, but also injected Hulk with a transformation serum during a time loop. However, the experiment failed completely, and he even survived the gamma rays in the serum and gained the same power as the Hulk.
Even so, he still couldn't defeat Xu Fu. Even in his mutated state, Red Skull could feel the difference in strength between himself and his opponent even more, and actually became closer to him because of the serum he injected.
It was during this time loop that Red Skull completely gave up the fight and abandoned any intention of using the Time Stone fragments' abilities.
Even if you use it, so what? It's just another experience of despair.
Looking at the red skull standing in front of him, Xu Fu felt a mixture of despair and relief. A slightly puzzled expression appeared on his face, but his hands did not waver in the slightest.
As he reached out to touch the Time Stone fragment in the Red Skull's hand, a dazzling green light appeared before his eyes the next second.
[Contact with special warped time nodes to collect a large number of x2000 time fragments].
[Time Gem Fragment (2/9)].
Immediately afterwards, the Time Gem fragment in front of him disappeared, and the numbers in Xu Fu's text also changed. The numbers that were originally marked after the words "[Time Gem Fragment (1/9)]" also changed.
"So you are also... the master."
Staring at the Time Gem fragment that suddenly disappeared from Xu Fu's hand, the red skeleton was stunned for a moment. It opened its mouth as if it wanted to say something, but in the next instant, countless accumulated time seemed to burst out from its body. In the blink of an eye, it transformed from a living form into a skeleton and melted into the center of the secret passage.
Clearly, frequently using the power of time comes at a price.
Chapter 898 Recommending the Drama
"I am a mutant!"
Layers of green light enveloped Xu Fu's consciousness. As he continued downwards, countless ever-changing figures appeared within the green light. They were laughing or crying, arguing or fighting. The images were blurry but incredibly realistic.
These flashes of light created a very malleable lake, but every now and then some clear images would briefly linger in Xu Fu's mind.
In these preliminary images, Xu Fu saw a huge pyramid rising like clouds, and a person dressed in gorgeous clothes, with gray skin and blue lips, holding a green-glowing gem in his hand, shouting loudly.
The scene shifts, and the pyramid setting instantly transforms into a modern metropolis filled with skyscrapers, where various faces appear. A figure holding a wheelchair emerges from the green light, shrouded in a continuous stream of green light, and then dissipates into the surrounding space.
As this image appeared, the scene flashed through George's mind more and more frequently. Just at the last moment, as his consciousness was about to enter the positive world, a golden glove shimmering with multicolored light flashed past his eyes.
"I am a mutant!"
At the same time, another scream rang in his mind.
However, compared to the arrogance and grandeur of the past, this time the voice sounded particularly desperate.
"The Ring of Infinity?"
"A positive world," Xu Fu opened his eyes.
However, the images he saw on the consciousness shuttle remained in his memory, and the Infinity Gauntlet, in that last glimpse, seemed to possess infinite power.
Does this mean that the Destroyer also obtained a fragment of the Time Stone?
The scene depicted is a moldy lake, but the patterns on it clearly show that it is a fragment of the Time Stone that fell there. The Infinity Ring that appears in the last scene of the painting also seems to confirm the existence of the assassin.
Judging from the light flashing on the Infinity Stones at the end of the scene, the Destroyer has clearly collected all the Infinity Stones except for the Time Stone. This also means that if the opponent wants to collect all the Infinity Stones, it will be easy for them to do so. The two remaining Time Stone fragments in Xu Fu's hand will definitely be the target of the opponent's pursuit.
If Joan is willing to give up the Time Stone fragment he carries with him, then their conflict is destined to fail.
The information brought by the Time Gem fragments sharpened Xu Fu's previously calm emotions.
He has unlocked some of Superman's abilities, but he is unsure whether he can use his incomplete abilities to fight the Destroyer, who possesses almost the complete power of the Infinity Gauntlet.
However, Xu Fu felt the pressure from the "assassin," and he did not forget that Dormammu, whom he had "visited" in Antimir not long ago, also possessed a fragment of the Time Stone.
In other words, if the Destroyer wants to collect the complete Time Stone, then his target is not only Xu Fu, but also other objects that possess fragments of the Time Stone.
Some of them were so unknown that even Xu Fu didn't know who they were.
Furthermore, when Xu Fu received the Time Gem fragment from the Red Skull, he clearly sensed that the flow of time between the positive and negative worlds seemed to have begun to shift, which meant that if Xu Fu wished, he could stay in the positive world for a longer period of time.
Collecting [Face]'s work would definitely be beneficial.
[Gold Seal (2107/10,000)]
As the source of the distortion of the world's history, the death of Red Skull gave Xu Fu a large number of [Time Fragments], directly filling one-fifth of the amount needed to update the [Golden Seal].
Compared to the gains from [Fragments of Time], the gains from [Faith] in the positive world have gradually reached a bottleneck. Although the serialization in the Messenger's Daily and the radio drama can still provide a certain amount of [Faith], there is obviously still a huge gap compared to the millions of [Faith] required to update the [Golden Seal].
On the other hand, the market for "Superman" merchandise and toys is slowly approaching saturation and cannot provide more "faith" in the short term.
If Xu Fu doesn't want the update progress of "The Golden Seal" to be slowed down by the "Faith" series in the positive world, he must find a way to increase Superman's popularity.

"Remaining time before the ship sinks: 72 days!"
At New York Harbor, crowds gathered on the dock, hoping to catch a glimpse of the magnificent ship.
The news that Howard Hughes was going to sink a cruise ship in New York was already widely known, spread by the Daily Courier.
Even the radio broadcasts drew crowds not only to New Yorkers but also to people from nearby states to the harbor to watch the giant ship sink.
· ·Request flowers 0 ·········
Due to the dense crowds, a small commercial area has unknowingly formed around the dock; some out-of-state visitors have not only seen the ship but have also begun to linger nearby, generating some economic consumption.
Of course, besides this, the presence of such a large group of people has also gradually created some troubles, and even some gray industries.
For example, according to the Daily Courier, some members of the public were not satisfied with just seeing the outline of the cruise ship at the dock; they wanted to go inside and witness firsthand that it truly had the atmosphere and splendor of the Titanic.
Therefore, some people risked navigating small boats in an attempt to climb onto the cruise ship via the anchor chain.
They did indeed do something incredibly crazy.
According to Howard Hughes, he didn't discover that these people had secretly boarded the ship until the movie was finished.
Because his costume was different from the other actors on the ship, and the cabin he was in did not match his costume, he was eventually discovered by the other actors on the ship, who then learned that they were "smugglers" who had sneaked into the film set.
Howard Hughes then took a headcount of the cruise ship's cast and discovered several New Yorkers among them. To prevent this from happening again, Hughes subsequently hired security personnel to patrol vulnerable areas of the ship to prevent the "smugglers" from entering.
"How about it, Xu Fu? Are you interested in making a cameo appearance in the movie?"
Howard Hughes gradually came into the public eye after a period of peaceful coexistence in the first-class café.
The real ship gave the actors of "Titanic" a near-real sense of presence, and many of them even began to forget that they were making a movie and thought they were actually working on such a giant ship.
"certainly"
Xu Fu had no reason to refuse Hughes' invitation.
Buying a giant ship for filming is unprecedented in Hollywood history; perhaps only Howard Hughes had such an ability. Although Xu Fu wasn't excited about participating in such a film, he was happy to be involved.
Chapter 899 Control over Oneself
In particular, the film "Titanic" owes a great deal to him from the very beginning of its production.
Without Xu Fu's support, Howard Hughes might have already devoted himself to the aerospace industry.
During the filming of the banquet scene, Xu Fu participated as a passenger in the filming of a 1:1 replica of the Titanic. The relaxed filming atmosphere calmed Xu Fu down a bit, which was mainly reflected in the frequent time loops of the anti-world. Of course, after visiting the film studio, he also made sure to show Hughes the color TV in the factory.
Howard Hughes was full of praise for new technologies such as television, and even took the initiative to help Xu Fu introduce clients.
It is believed that Hollidaywood will accept this new product.
Xu Erqiqi's reply to this was "no".
If he remembers correctly, for a long time afterward, Hollywood actually resisted television: just as the newspapers traditionally viewed television broadcasting, Hollywood believed that the advent of television was detrimental to the interests of the film industry.
Even the emergence of television series was mainly due to the fact that film producers, led by Hollywood, disagreed with putting movies on television.
It was precisely because of the boycott of Hollywood that television stations were forced to produce their own dramas, which gradually made Hollywood a major pillar of the television industry.
From this perspective, Hollywood actually made almost the same mistake as the traditional newspaper industry, because the resistance to new industries led to the prosperity of television entertainment and radio.
Of course, Hollidaywood's views were not Xu Fu's main concern.
"TV programs? I'll watch them on time."
Instead, upon leaving the cruise ship, Xu Fu told Howard Hughes that he intended to create a television series.
By this time, thanks to Roosevelt's earlier visit to the factory, television sales had already reached a small audience: approximately 50,000 televisions were sold in New York City alone, not including sales of RCA televisions.
With a certain audience base established, Xu Fu naturally began to further promote the development of the television industry.
The only way to attract the attention of the television industry is to produce popular programs or series.
Let's not forget that Hugh Hugh had discussed the production of the Superman animation with Walter, and he planned to wait until television became widespread before airing it.
...
"Television...drama?"
William Paley, a CBS radio employee, looked puzzled when he learned about Xu Fu's television drama proposal.
As part of its partnership with Xu Fu, CBS is now focusing on the television industry, but the station remains primarily a broadcaster.
After all, radio seemed to have a brighter future than the uncertain future of television.
Even during the Great Depression, the broadcasting industry rebounded more than enough.
"what is that?"
For people today, drama is clearly still a very new concept.
After all, radio dramas have only been around for a few years.
