Chapter 96 Gwen's Sulking
"Is this some kind of Space-time Travel Sequelae?" Gwen didn't believe Yang Le just because he looked serious, and instead said jokingly. "Are you sure you don't have Paranoia?"
"I'm very sure, Gwen." Yang Le nodded. Indeed, the Multiverse Crisis was too far removed from ordinary people. Anyone hearing it for the first time would question it. Yang Le didn't expect Gwen to accept it immediately.
"Oh, okay." Gwen nodded, seemingly accepting what Yang Le said. "So when are we going to Other Universe?"
"Actually, this time I plan to go alone." Yang Le dropped a Bombshell. Gwen was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then asked, "Wait, what did you say?"
"I'm planning to go to Other Universe alone." Yang Le turned his head and placed his hand on the Steering wheel, even though he had already turned on Autopilot. "Gwen, you still have your studies to complete, and if I take you away for a year, your Father will definitely Empty the Magazine on me."
"Wait a minute, Yang Le." Gwen's tone was calm, but from the fact that she called Yang Le by his real name instead of his Nickname, it was clear she was angry. "Let's sort this out. You're saying there's a World-destroying Crisis about to happen, and then! You want me to go to school while you go on an adventure to Other Universe?"
"In terms of the outcome, that's pretty much what I mean." Yang Le didn't need to look to know that Gwen must be very angry right now. "Why? Because I'm too weak??" Gwen thought of Kingpin from the Ultimate Universe.
"Because I lost to Kingpin before, you're going to abandon me?"
"Kingpin?" Yang Le was taken aback, not understanding Gwen's meaning. "It's that gray Guy from before. He's Kingpin from our Universe, and like us, he was transported to that Universe." Gwen scratched her Hair.
"Oh, I see." Yang Le finally realized. "No wonder he seemed to know me so well. It's just that I was too angry at the Time and didn't give him a chance to speak, so I just beat him to ash."
"Don't change the Topic." Gwen knocked on the back of Yang Le's seat. "Answer my question first. Do you think I'm a Burden?"
"Gwen, how could it be!" Yang Le immediately denied it. "You are my Secret Weapon."
"Oh? Really?" Gwen raised an eyebrow. "I really haven't seen it."
"It wouldn't be a Secret Weapon if people could see it." Yang Le steered the Flying Wheel into the Sea and headed towards the Base. "Believe me, Gwen, to me, you are more important than you think. The reason I'm not taking you this Time is because what I'm going to do is not suitable for two people to go together."
After all, when it comes to sneaking around, one person is definitely more convenient than two.
Gwen didn't speak, just looked at the Seabed scenery outside through the Hatch. Her long Hair covered her Face, allowing Yang Le to only see her expression through the reflection of the transparent Hatch. Her expression was neither sad nor happy. Yang Le couldn't guess what Gwen was thinking for a moment, and helplessly could only turn off Autopilot to find something to do in this dull atmosphere.
When they arrived at the Base, Gwen just dropped a sentence, "I'm going to find Mary Jane," and left the Base. Yang Le didn't stop her when he saw this. It was good to let Gwen be alone for a while, and besides, she had said where she was going, so it seemed Gwen wasn't too angry.
Moreover, this also made it convenient for Yang Le to prepare. After all, he was going to Other Universe, and it wasn't like the Ultimate Universe. Yang Le was likely to spend a lot of Time there, so he still needed to make more preparations.

"Gwen?" Mary Jane looked at Gwen outside the Door in surprise. "Hi, Mary Jane." Gwen greeted stiffly.
"Where did you go? You and Habby disappeared for a whole day." Mary Jane looked a little agitated. "You worried us to Death! Did you tell your Father?"
"Actually, I called him when I came." Gwen played with her Hair. "He scolded me."
Actually, it was more than that. George even planned to find Yang Le, but Gwen dissuaded him. However, it was estimated that George wouldn't give Yang Le a good Face for a while.
"You really deserved to be scolded." Mary Jane looked serious, but still made way for Gwen to come in. "Come in. It's just me at Home now. Where's Habby? How did he disappear with you too? Where did you guys go before?"
"Don't mention him, okay, Mary Jane." Gwen went straight to the Sofa as soon as she entered the Door and collapsed on it. "I don't want to think about him for now."
"You guys quarreled?" Mary Jane was shocked again. "Habby and you quarreled? This might be the most shocking news of the year for me."
"You don't seem to believe it very much." Gwen said weakly. The battles in Other Universe, arguing with Yang Le, and Father's questioning had already exhausted her physically and mentally.
"It would be more believable if you said Peter was Einstein reincarnated." Mary Jane shook her head and walked to the Kitchen to pour Gwen a Water Cup. "What exactly happened? What could make you two quarrel?"
"Some small things. In the end, it's just me being willful." Gwen took the Water Cup and took a sip. Gwen actually knew that her anger was unreasonable, because she was actually angry at herself, angry that she couldn't help Yang Le, and somehow vented her anger on Yang Le.
Gwen knew she was wrong as soon as she got angry and wanted to apologize, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and then she thought of Mary Jane, so she planned to go to Mary Jane's place first and wait until her anger subsided before going back. "So when are you planning to go back?" Mary Jane also sat down beside Gwen.
"Are you going to go live with your Father?" "It's better not to. If I go back, my Father will make Trouble for Habby."
Gwen imagined that Scene and shook her head. "Aren't you thinking of Uncle George as too irritable?" Mary Jane felt that Gwen was making a fuss over a trifle. How could just going back Home cause such a big reaction?
"If it were normal times, definitely not." Gwen leaned on Mary Jane's Shoulder. "But just recently, Habby and I just disappeared for a while. Adding these two things together, my Father will definitely overthink."
"Don't mention your Father, even I'm starting to overthink." Mary Jane looked at Gwen suspiciously. "Did you and Habby really not cause any big Business?"
"No!" Gwen bumped Mary Jane with her Head. "Where are your thoughts going?"

Not mentioning Gwen pouring out her grievances to Mary Jane, Yang Le was now in the Base, enthusiastically preparing his Stowaway Plan, Multiverse Level.
Yang Le prepared a lot of things, mostly used to compensate for the Weakness of Alien Hero. For example, the Horn on Way Big's Crown is his Weakness. If the Horn on the Crown is hit hard, Way Big will feel Dizziness, or even Faint.
And Yang Le compensated for this Weakness through another Alien Hero. That Alien Hero is Blast Hopper. Blast Hopper can secrete a Viscous Substance that can absorb Impact Force, allowing him to reduce the Damage to his Body caused by falling from heights.
Yang Le relied on this substance to develop a Protective Film. As long as it's put on Way Big's Horn, there's no need to worry about the Horn being damaged.
Of course, besides this, there are many other Inventions, which will not be introduced one by one here. The most important thing now is how to safely Stowaway to the Movie Universe. After all, there's a bald woman watching the Scene there.
