After speaking, Lin Feng walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and sighed, looking at the bustling street scene below.
He had to admit, no matter the world, there were always some greedy, self-serving individuals running amok.
They fantasized about controlling everything, regardless of whether they could handle it.
In the end, they were left with nothing but ruin.
Yet, countless others still rushed forward, like moths to a flame.
Seeing that Lin Feng had fallen silent,
Everyone exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.
Although Lin Feng wasn't part of their team, his strength was too dazzling. The others unconsciously regarded him as their backbone, the one who made the decisions.
Now that he was quiet, after a round of glances, they could only turn their gaze to Captain America, who was seated.
Captain America possessed qualities of kindness and dedication, and was always steady, whether in missions or in life.
With Lin Feng remaining silent, they instinctively looked at him.
Seeing their gazes, Captain America waved his hand.
"What do you all think?"
"Over a hundred members of the United Nations, representing the vast majority of kingdoms on Planet Blue, and even Wakanda has signed."
"Not going might not be an option either."
Captain America didn't want to go, but the circumstances compelled him; he felt it was better to attend.
Tony agreed with Captain America's assessment; he understood these self-serving individuals.
"Indeed, not going is unavoidable."
"They're simply afraid that the power of superheroes will exceed their control."
"After all, we have threats here that are more dangerous than nuclear bombs."
As Tony spoke, he glanced at Lin Feng's back, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, his words carrying a hidden meaning.
That blast of heat ray during the Chitauri incident, like a god of slaughter, made anyone who saw it tremble.
Such a destructive humanoid weapon, unleashed, could easily annihilate a small country.
He had dealt with the self-serving individuals from the Grey Palace more than once and knew what they were thinking and what they feared.
Lin Feng was too terrifying.
There was practically no one on Planet Blue who could restrain him.
Based on Lin Feng's current performance, even a nuclear bomb might not pose a threat to him.
So these lunatics intended to use a few pages of paper to pacify themselves.
However, if Lin Feng were truly provoked, Tony felt that those few pages of paper would be nothing more than a decoration.
"I find it strange, why would such a serious matter be discussed at a dinner table?" Natasha asked, a hint of confusion on her face.
"When I received this, I thought it was some kind of prank."
"Who would bring such a serious matter to the dinner table?"
Captain America and the others nodded in agreement; they didn't understand either.
This was the first time a proposed plan to be enacted was discussed at a dinner table, making it feel somewhat frivolous.
Tony, after some thought, provided an answer.
"I think it might be because of Lin Feng..."
"Lin Feng?"
Several of them looked at Lin Feng, then at Tony.
"Lin Feng is an Easterner."
"And Jarvis's data shows that Easterners prefer to conduct business over meals."
"The atmosphere is good, and it's easier to succeed."
"His strength makes them have to take him seriously; perhaps this is why the proposal was sent with an invitation."
Tony's reasoning was sound and logical, earning him a roll of Natasha's eyes.
"But this isn't as simple as conducting business!"
Tony shrugged. "You're right."
"Most likely, those guys didn't do their homework properly!"
"You know! They always have issues here." Tony tapped his head, alluding to something.
"So, are we going?" Hawkeye, who had been silent, asked the most crucial question.
The group exchanged glances again.
"Since we can't avoid it, let's go," Captain America said, standing up and making a decision.
"Let's see what they have to say."
"Besides, the proposal only takes effect if we sign it, doesn't it?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
They couldn't dodge it, so they'd face it head-on.
"Lin Feng!" Natasha called out to Lin Feng by the window, wanting to ask if he was going.
After all, Lin Feng wasn't part of the Avengers, and if he didn't go, they couldn't say much.
However, Lin Feng seemed not to hear Natasha's call. He continued to look down, a smile on his lips, his face full of interest.
As if he were captivated by something.
Natasha walked over curiously and followed Lin Feng's gaze downwards.
She could only see pedestrians and vehicles as small as ants, a dense crowd that was unclear.
"Hey! Lin Feng!"
Natasha couldn't help but pat Lin Feng's shoulder, finally bringing him back to his senses.
"Huh? Hmm? What's wrong?"
Lin Feng reluctantly pulled his gaze back, looking at Natasha with a hint of confusion.
"What were you looking at?"
"Oh, I was watching an excavator..." Lin Feng replied instinctively.
Natasha: ???
"An excavator?"
Her tone was filled with disbelief.
"You were distracted watching an excavator just now?!" Natasha's expression was incredibly strange, and she even cupped her ear to confirm she hadn't misheard.
Lin Feng, realizing his slip, licked his lips awkwardly.
He had spoken too quickly and then noticed everyone in the room was looking at him.
Good heavens, a superhero getting distracted by an excavator?
While they were discussing such serious matters, Lin Feng was watching an excavator?
"Pfft..."
Tony was the first to burst out laughing.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it!"
So, the self-serving individuals from the Grey Palace were less interesting to Lin Feng than an excavator!
"Lin, if you like that thing, I'll buy you one later!"
Captain America and Hawkeye also wore expressions of understanding.
They unexpectedly understood Lin Feng.
Men liked watching excavators, and they were no exception!
From ninety-nine-year-old grandpas to toddlers just learning to walk, there was no one who didn't like watching excavators!
For a moment, the originally solemn atmosphere was lightened by Lin Feng's mention of "excavator."
Lin Feng couldn't quite bear all the teasing glances and let out an awkward chuckle, scratching his head.
"Alright, alright, let's get down to business. What did you call me for?"
He had just seen an excavator digging something in the central park.
He got engrossed as he watched.
Indeed, men remain boys until death.
Even a strong Superman like Silver Superman liked watching excavators at work...
"We're asking if you're going to that, the dinner party!" Natasha gave Lin Feng a sidelong glance.
She couldn't understand why men liked watching excavators.
She only found them peculiar and childish.
