Marvel With Zanpakutou

Chapter 512: Disappearing Potts

The relic left behind by Irene Caswell was actually an angel statue that was covering its face and crying!

Although Irene had used words to describe its image, when they really saw this statue, they could not help but be shocked. An uncontrollable fear quietly spread in their hearts.

Looking at this statue up close, a strange feeling came to their faces.

Their appearance was like that of the ancient Greek goddess. They wore a graceful and luxurious long dress, and their hair was like that of ancient Greeks. Their hands covered their cheeks, making it impossible to see their faces clearly. There were two pairs of wings on their backs.

If they did not know the strangeness of the statue, most people would only think that it was an ordinary Greek sculpture. Moreover, it must have been made by a famous person. Otherwise, it would not be so lifelike, especially the carving of the wrinkled part of the dress. It could be said to be made by the gods. The subtle parts could be faked and true!

But the more vivid it was, the more fearful Tony and Potts became.

Because they knew that this statue was definitely not a stone, but an unknown horror!

"Tony.. I am a little scared."

Facing this angel statue that was full of evil, Potts's face paled. She tugged at Tony's sleeve, wanting to ask him what was going on.

"Don't move! Don't blink"

Noticing the movement of his lover next to him, Tony roared with veins on his face, "Listen up, Potts. From now on, don't blink. Don't move your eyes away from it!"

Potts obediently widened her eyes and stared at the angel statue.

"Please don't blink." At this time, Tony's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He had no time to think about the reason why Irene did this. The pressure that this statue gave him was too great. He racked his brain to think of a way to escape the current predicament.

The only thing he knew was that the only factor that could keep the angel statue still was to keep the statue in the state of 'observing'. This was similar to Schrodinger's quantum experiment.

Tony guessed that under the state of observation, this statue would be in the state of quantum collapse.

This state would cause the angel statue to be unable to move under the state of the stone statue, but once it lost the target of observation, this statue would activate a state, changing from the state of quantum collapse to a different state.

"Jarvis, do you hear me?" Tony opened his eyes wide and called out, "Bring the monitoring equipment over immediately. I don't care what method you use to keep this angel statue in a state of being observed!"

"No problem, sir." Jarvis said, "We are currently mobilizing the closest flying monitoring equipment. We still need a minute."

Three minutes.

When the two heard this, their hearts relaxed a little.

This time was neither too long nor too short. One person definitely could not do it, but as long as they started to blink and maintain a state of observation, it should not be a problem to hold on for three minutes.

Tony told Potts his thoughts, and the two of them took turns to blink and rest.

"Okay. Okay. I got it." Although Potts felt very nervous and fearful of this statue, she still gathered her courage and nodded, indicating that she would definitely be fine.

"Okay, you go first in the first round. When I can't hold on any longer, I will call you." Tony relied on his strength to hold on for a longer time, so he told Potts close her eyes and rest first.

Potts couldn't hold on anymore and immediately closed her eyes when she heard this.

Tony widened his eyes and stared at the angel statue, thinking about whether he could destroy it.

According to the contents of Irene's notes, the statue could indeed be destroyed, but it would be restored. However, the moment it was broken, the statue should not have the ability to move, so the feasibility of this method was very high.

Ten seconds. Twenty seconds. Thirty seconds.

After holding on for a whole minute, Tony finally couldn't hold it in any longer. His eyes were abnormally dry and uncomfortable. He instinctively wanted to blink and hurriedly called out, "Potts, it's my turn to rest now. Don't blink. Remember to keep a close eye on the statue. No matter what happens, understand?"

"Don't worry. I know." Potts said nervously, then opened her eyes.

Tony quickly closed his eyes, tears continuously flowing out of his eyes, moistening his two dry eyeballs.

However, he did not dare to close his eyes for too long. He was afraid that Potts would accidentally close her eyes, so after only ten seconds, Tony immediately opened his eyes and let Potts continue to rest. He stared at the angel statue.

Potts did not argue, but obediently closed her eyes and continued to rest.

Another thirty seconds passed, and the two of them took turns.

After three rounds, they finally managed to hold on until the drone arrived.

Jarvis controlled five drones to observe from five different angles to ensure that there were no blind spots in all directions. Every part of the angel statue was deeply imprinted in the camera.

"Tony. Can we blink now?" Potts asked carefully. She was really scared when she looked at the statue.

"We can't do it now. Let's slowly retreat, bit by bit, and keep our eyes open." Tony took a deep breath and held Potts's hand. The two of them faced the angel statue and slowly retreated.

Since this was the deepest storage cabinet, they had to go through a corner.

When Tony and Potts retreated to the corner, their hearts were so nervous that they were in their throats. They slowly moved their feet, slowly rubbing against the edge, and slowly walked out. The angel statue in their vision was slowly covered by the storage cabinet until it completely disappeared.

It worked!

As he had expected, as long as the angel statue was in a state of observation, it would not move. And this observer might not necessarily be a human, even if it was a machine.

"Phew. It's fine."

Tony heaved a sigh of relief. His shirt was instantly drenched in sweat. He said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, I was extremely smart. I thought of having Jarvis observe it for us. Otherwise, we might not have been able to escape!"

However, at this time, Potts's expression suddenly changed. She seemed to have recalled something terrifying. She looked at him in horror and said with a trembling voice, "Tony. We seem to have forgotten something."

"Forgot something?" Tony asked in confusion.

"Do you still remember? Irene once said that they can affect the material of the real world, for example... cut off the power." Potts' pupils trembled violently as she said in fear.

"Zzz-"

An ear-piercing sound of electricity suddenly rang through the headset.

Tony subconsciously covered his ears with his hands. His eyes closed in that instant. This was a completely instinctive reaction. In addition, it was a sudden incident, so it was not controlled by human consciousness at all.

"Not good!"

Tony instantly realized that something was wrong and forced himself to open his eyes.

However, the one in front of him now was not Potts, but a statue of an angel with a hideous face. It had its hands clasped around something.

Potts. disappeared!
