Chapter 8: Ethan's Death
"The Miniature Ark Reactor?"
Tony is a little blindsided, this thing has a big one at home, and it has been generating electricity for his own factory, but more than 30 years have passed, and the Ark Reactor has not been able to implement a technological breakthrough, and in the end it can only be shelved there, no one wants to start the plan to transform it, everyone knows that the improvement of the Ark Reactor is a bottomless pit, and it can't return to its original cost at all.
"I didn't expect someone to succeed. Tony looked at Qiao Yi in surprise.
"No, it's not about me, it's yours. Qiao Yi said. He knew very well that even if he didn't come up with the Ark Reactor technology, Tony would be able to figure it out quickly.
"What do you mean?"
Tony apparently didn't understand what Qiao Yi meant.
"My name, Tony Stark, what about you?" Tony saw Qiao Yi smile and was silent, and then changed the subject.
"My name is Qiao Yi. ”
"My name is Ethan. ”
......
On the second day, Tony asked the terrorists for a bunch of materials with the help of Ethan's translator, and the construction of the Ark Reactor began.
After some hectic work, 1.6 grams of palladium was completely extracted. The liquid was fired, and Ethan removed it with pliers.
"Be careful, we only have one chance. Tony reminded with some concern.
"Don't worry, my hands are very steady, otherwise how do you think you survived? ”
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Within a few days, the Miniature Ark Reactor was ready and installed in Tony's body, replacing the original electromagnet ring.
The energy released by the Miniature Ark Reactor could have kept Tony alive for a long time.
"Now we have to think about how to get out?" Qiao Yi reminded Tony, after all, Tony should take out the classic Mark I armor at this time.
“......”
“......”
As the two were silent, Qiao Yi suddenly realized that Tony didn't have the idea of building a battle armor at all, no, or they didn't think about how to get out at all.
"Forget it, this is for you. Qiao Yi took out the blueprint of the Mark I Armor that the system rewarded him.
"What is this. ”
I don't know what the hell is when I look at the drawings directly.
"Spread it out and look at it. Qiao Yi said helplessly.
The two of them spread out the drawings, and a tall but mighty Mark Yi appeared in front of their eyes. I don't know why, Tony always feels so familiar when he looks at the drawings of Mark's first battle armor, as if he has been hiding in the deepest part of his heart, but he just can't remember it.
"Incredible. Ethan exclaimed.
Taking advantage of the amazed kung fu of the two, Qiao Yi asked the system in pain.
"What's the situation? How do I feel that the reward you gave me was to let me take it out at this time? Isn't that the idea that Iron Man proposed?"
"Ding, the system can't help it, in order to make the host your reward seem useful, it is the easiest way to stop Tony Stark from remembering how the Miniature Ark Reactor and Mark One were built. ”
The system you won, I can only say: worthy of you, the system, only in and out, not a dime.
......
The rest of the days were normal striking iron, forging armor or something.
Qiao Yi, who has the face of an eighteen-year-old boy, naturally became the most leisurely one, Tony was responsible for striking iron, Ethan was responsible for helping him, and Qiao Yi became the person who cooked every day.
Although Qiao Yi thinks that his strength is much higher than the two of them, the advantage of age easily makes Qiao Yi a bastard. It's been another few days, and I didn't say anything about helping, and the level of cooking is still the same as always.
Even Ethan often complains that this is dark cuisine, which loses Qiao Yi's face as a foodie.
As the armor was almost finished, the terrorists broke in again, and the days of waiting had made them impatient. They threaten Tony that tomorrow they have to build a Jericho missile.
After they left, the three of them obviously accelerated their movements, and even Qiao Yi joined in the pace of creating battle armor.
All the parts of the armor have been fabricated, and they are hung on improvised shelves, and the camera is covered with a black cloth to prevent the terrorists from seeing that Tony has entered the armor.
It was precisely because they couldn't see Tony's figure that they gradually realized that something was wrong and hurried to check the situation.
The bomb strapped to the door stopped the first hapless guys who came to check on the situation. But the sound of the bomb also made the head of the terrorists realize that something was wrong.
More and more terrorists are rushing towards Tony's cave.
At this time, there is one last step left before the Mark I armor worn by Tony is activated - turn on the power supply command.
Ethan looked at the approaching enemy outside and said to Qiao Yi.
"Qiao Yi, you come to help Tony turn on the power supply command. ”
Ethan looked at Qiao Yi seriously, then picked up the gun on the ground and rushed out. It was the gun left behind by the first hapless guys who came after they were blown up.
"Ethan, what are you going to do. Tony, who was dressed in armor but couldn't move, seemed to have thought of something.
"We need more time, I'm going to fight for you. Ethan rushed out without looking back. Helpless, Tony kept shouting in the armor: "Come according to the plan, come according to the plan, Ethan!"
The plan is that before Tony's Armor is activated, the two must stay here, keep themselves safe, and then follow Tony out. But Ethan apparently had a plan of his own.
Soon gunshots rang out outside.
"Tony, there's no time, tell me what to do?" Qiao Yi finally remembered, at the beginning of Iron Man, Ethan delayed time for Tony, one person and one shot to stop the terrorists from raiding in, and finally paid the price with his life.
"Press F11......" Tony calmed down, he couldn't waste any more time.
......
The battle armor was activated, and in the ensuing fight, Qiao Yi seemed completely useless, so he could only hide behind Tony Mark One, in front of the submachine gun, the strength of the ninth order of the spirit was like a fictitious, and if he went down, he would die if he died, which was also the reason why Qiao Yi knew that Ethan would die after rushing out, but he didn't save him, because he didn't have the strength to save people.
After a fight, Tony repelled all the enemies and found Ethan lying on the ground, covered in blood.
"Ethan, let's go, and we said okay to come as planned. Tony opened his armor's helmet and said to Ethan.
"That's what I always planned, Stark. Ethan, who had lost too much blood, began to look a little misty.
"You're going to see your family, aren't you, quick, come with me. Tony urged.
Qiao Yi clearly knew what was about to happen next, and he couldn't bear to look at him directly, so he turned his head away.
"My family is dead, and I'm going to see them. It's okay... Tony, that's who I am... To want... Finale. Ethan's breath was already very faint.
"Thank you for saving your life. Tony knew there was no way to keep it.
"Then cherish life, don't let it down. Ethan strained his last strength and smiled.
The two looked at each other again and smiled, like old friends for many years.
Ethan gradually stopped breathing, and Tony took one last look at Ethan, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes. Put on the helmet again and said to Qiao Yi: "Let's go, I want everything here to be buried for Ethan." ”
Qiao Yi didn't speak, just nodded silently.
Tony took the lead, and when the armor appeared at the entrance of the cave, a group of terrorists with submachine guns were already on standby. The bullets all hit Tony's steel armor, but they didn't do any substantial damage.
"It's my turn. ”
Tony whispered. He then opened the flamethrower in Mark I's hands.
Qiao Yi followed Tony and walked to Ethan's dead body.
"System, is there any way you can save Ethan?"
......
"Ah......h
"Ah......h
As the screams of the two came from the sky, a huge steel armor fell to the desert, and if you looked closely, there was a person behind the steel armor.
Tony and Joe escape successfully.
