Chapter 236 uses involution to drive involution.
After saving Riley from the parallel universe, the protagonist Riley fulfilled his promise to Jade Black, effectively "resurrecting" Riley from the parallel universe.
As for Peter in this parallel universe, in a moment of panic, he called out Riley's name in public, which risked exposing his true identity.
And Tru, who was supposed to be killed by Shendu during his resurrection...
Wait, the subsequent series of events all belong to Riley's story in this parallel universe.
With the protagonist Riley providing a huge amount of equipment, Riley in the parallel universe would likely live a different and exciting life even without the system's protection!
Of course, this does not mean that there will be no possibility of any further contact between the two Rileys.
After all, judging from Hei Xiaoyu's shared experience...
In this parallel universe, the Holy Lord, though he acted as a deliveryman for a time, went to the Marvel Cinematic Universe not long after his resurrection and delivered the twelve talismans to the protagonist Riley.
However, not long after that, Shendu still possessed Valon and became obsessed with freeing the eight demons.
During this process, the complete encyclopedia of spells personally written by the Holy Lord was brought back to the antique shop. This gave Hei Xiaoyu the opportunity to make a copy of Tara's image and stick it on her calf, thus becoming the current Queen of the Shadow Legion.
This clearly shows that after returning to his own universe and eliminating the threat posed by "Vallon," the protagonist Riley still needs to erase "Vallon's" memories. Then, he extracts the soul of Shendu from the parallel universe and sends it back to this universe.
In order to complete the final piece of the puzzle and truly achieve a closed loop in the timeline.
So, after waving goodbye to Riley in the parallel universe and Hei Xiaoyu, promising that they would meet again someday in the future.
Riley then led Peter and Jade through the dimensional barrier back to their own universe.
After that, Riley, who had been continuously grinding dungeons at a high intensity with almost no rest time, finally had a period of leisure.
Not only did the Spider Squad's rotating patrols help students return to their daily routines and avoid the risk of being called to school for excessive absences, but they also ensured that their parents could be contacted.
Even the last missing talisman in this universe—the Tiger Talisman, which only appears during the pie-eating contest—successfully fell into Riley's hands thanks to the system's guidance, completing the set of twelve talismans once again.
However, this smooth-sailing pace of life did not put Riley at ease.
Instead, based on past experience, they judged that behind the seemingly peaceful atmosphere, there must be dark forces quietly causing trouble!
So, besides asking Sheriff Black to keep an eye out for Valon's whereabouts, Riley also...
Whenever he had a spare moment, Riley would head straight to the Sanctuary without a second thought.
Clearly, Peter wasn't the only one affected by this parallel universe journey.
Riley, who already suffers from a fear of insufficient firepower, is also worried that he might be careless and follow the same path as Riley in the parallel universe, thus awakening his instinctive thirst for power once again!
So, after obtaining permission from the Ancient One to send his father to the Sanctum Sanctum ahead of schedule.
Riley then spent Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays following the Ancient One, continuing to study all sorts of wondrous spells to increase his arsenal.
On Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, under the supervision and care of his father, he could confidently and boldly study the complete magic manual he had seized during the raid on the Black Hand Gang's headquarters.
During this period, if the body feels sleepy, one can continue to study intensively by taking a nap or having an out-of-body experience, making the most of the time.
Riley felt that after a hard week, he should relax a bit over the rest of the weekend...
So he decided to go to Asgard to learn magic from Frigga, and "incidentally" bring Loki some of the modern-day Jia Xu's mischievous shock!
After a few encounters, although it's unclear how much psychological trauma Riley inflicted on Loki, one thing is certain: the mighty God of Mischief would turn pale with fright upon hearing that Riley had come to Asgard! And before Riley could even come knocking, he used the excuse of taking his older brother to a date with Jane Foster, and without hesitation, dragged Thor along and fled to Earth!
Then, to everyone's astonishment, they always discover that their father, Odin, has escaped even faster than them! He always arrives on Earth first!
Of course, for a god high above, to be frightened like a mouse before a cat by a mortal is clearly not a solution. Nor is it something the proud and arrogant Loki could accept.
As time went by, Loki, having learned his lesson, seemed to have suddenly had a breakthrough and completely abandoned his dream of becoming a melee mage.
He decided to uphold the virtues of humility and a thirst for knowledge, and under the guidance of his mother Frigga, continue to delve into the mysteries of magic.
Even Thor, who was always so loud and boisterous, toned down his lazy nature. Apart from occasionally meeting with Jian Yue, he spent most of his time training on the battlefield and developing his own abilities.
In that case, it probably won't be long...
In this universe, will there emerge a true "Thor" and the "Number One Mage of the Nine Realms"?
Well, I wonder what will happen when Hela breaks the seal and discovers that her two younger brothers have become so powerful...
Between the two of them and Hela, who is the real boss?
In addition, it is perhaps obvious that they were influenced by Riley's example.
Even though Riley never made any demands on anyone, the Thirteenth District, which was originally somewhat lax in its atmosphere due to its relaxed work environment, spontaneously became more and more competitive.
After all, they could still accept that they were no match for superheroes...
But as adults, how can we be less hardworking than underage children who are at the most playful age?
That was a disgrace that these elite agents absolutely could not accept!
It would be like a village inviting foreigners to row a dragon boat, only to have two out of three boats capsize, and being laughed at by the neighboring village for having no male descendants. They would be laughed at for a lifetime by their fellow agents from S.H.I.E.L.D. next door!
And so, Riley filled each of his days with an exceptionally full and packed schedule. Unbeknownst to him, he also corrected Loki's bad habit of treating the Wizard ship like an Assassin ship, and subsequently inspired those around him to spontaneously join in the fun…
Time slipped away quietly, bit by bit, in this positive and uplifting atmosphere of hard work.
Until the long-dormant system panel suddenly popped up an emergency task.
Immersed in the ocean of magic, Riley's entire demeanor became mysterious and unpredictable, much like a reclusive master, before he finally broke out of his meditative state.
After glancing at the task information on the system panel, he smiled and took out his phone to call Harry.
"Has this day finally come...? Hey, Harry, it's me. The plan I mentioned to you before can officially begin."
"Oh, by the way, you can ask Sheriff Black if he's interested in contributing a small portion of District 13's budget to make some 'pocket money' with us."
The suggestive words implied that Riley was so certain that there was only one opportunity to make money right in front of him.
That is, after working hard for two or three months, Tony has finally completed his first Iron Man suit and is about to be "released" and return to modern society!
