Chapter 149: Betting

"There's nothing to be done right now..."

After careful consideration, Ouyang Xiu finally found that -

Nothing soft.

There is no way to defeat Iron Man with mechanical creations.

That's right, Vanke is indeed an incomparable genius, able to independently create an external armor that releases an electric whip in its own workshop warehouse.

It was even possible to create a relatively inferior Ark reactor as an armored energy device under extremely difficult conditions.

But compared to Iron Man's full-body conjoined steel armor armed to the teeth, it can be described as an offensive and defensive one, which can be far and near.

In particular, the latest Steel Suit Mark 5 can be assembled anywhere and folded into a suitcase when not needed.

It was with this suitcase-sized steel suit that Playboy Tony Stark was able to turn a comeback and put Vanke in jail when he was attacked in a race car.

Although the Mark 5 has shortcomings such as weak attack power, weak defense, and lack of attack methods, this kind of briefcase-like portable armor makes it more difficult to attack and kill Iron Man.

This is just Iron Man's portable armor, once Tony Stark solves the palladium arc reactor poisoning, he successfully designs the new elemental ark reactor and creates the Iron suit Mark 6 (Mark 6).

Then, this damn aristocratic mandatory task will be terrifyingly difficult.

You must know that the defensive armor of the Steel Suit Mark 6 is quite strong, and it will only take minor damage in normal combat.

Even if you fight with Thor in melee combat, you can fight and withstand heavy blows.

Not only that, but the Mark 6 can also absorb external energy and convert it into armor energy, such as arc pulse guns, laser weapons, and miniature armor-piercing shells.

The Mark 6 armor is also equipped with a heavy missile on the right shoulder and a decoy in the crotch to jam the heat-seeking missile or distract the enemy.

Once this set of armor is put on the body, it is already worthy of the nickname of Iron Man.

- The body of a mortal, comparable to a god.

Just when Ouyang Xiu was thinking hard and meditating, the steel cell door suddenly opened, and a dazzling bright light shot into the cell where the criminals were held.

Playboy, tycoon, billionaire, Iron Man in a tailor-made suit from an Italian designer - Tony Stark walked in.

"It's a bit advanced, but the speed is a bit low, you can double the speed and let the counterenergy pass through the ionized plasma pipeline..."

Tony commented on the inferior Ark Ark reactor made by Vanke, but Vanke had tried all of these methods, and because his research room was too rudimentary, it was impossible to conduct such sophisticated research.

"Explain your intentions, Mr. Stark."

Ouyang Xiu is not a vengeful otaku like Vanke, he has his own goals.

"Where did you get my blueprints?"

This core issue is the most important reason why Tony came to find Vanke, and the secret of the Ark reactor is the one he fears the most.

Ouyang Xiu did not answer him directly, and used Vanke's original sentence in the original plot.

"If you can make God bleed, people won't believe Him."

"When there's blood in the water, it attracts sharks, and if I sit here and watch, the world will devour you."

The subtext of this passage is that Iron Man has proven not to be invincible, people will be suspicious of him, and his potential opponents will surface and hunt him down.

Indeed, Tony began to fly after discovering that the use of the Ark reactor had caused him to suffer from palladium poisoning and that his life was short.

He began to ignore the face of the US government and military, and threatened that he could save the world and bring peace to the world by himself.

Although he is indeed awesome, such words should never be made public, and this has completely angered the US political and military authorities.

This was also confirmed in the later episodes.

But Tony, who has left life and death behind, no longer cares about these threats or intimidation.

"Where will you see the world devouring me? That's right, your cell, I'll give you a bar of soap so you can enjoy a happy prison life. ”

In the face of Tony's ridicule, Ouyang Xiu pulled his lips and smiled. He just borrowed the shell of Vanke's identity and external performance, he didn't have Vanke's revenge, he only had his own tasks in his heart.

"Tony, don't be blinded by pride..."

"Since you've put life and death aside, let's make a bet."

In the face of the mechanical genius Tony, Ouyang Xiu had to adopt some unconventional means.

"Let's not talk about what to bet on, can you, the defeated prisoner, come up with any decent bets?"

Tony's hands crossed and his unrivalled self-confidence have always been his key to success.

"We'll bet you put on your strongest steel suit and we'll fight again."

"Bet, heh, you don't want to die a humble death because of palladium poisoning, I have a way to solve him."

Ouyang Xiu looked directly at Iron Man's uninhibited eyes, as if through his proud and complacent surgery, he had insight into his mortal heart that was afraid of emptiness at the moment.

As Ouyang Xiu approached, Tony's pupils also widened, and in order to hide the shock in his heart, he couldn't help but take a big step back.

"Well, while I don't think you'll be able to solve the palladium poisoning problem from the Ark reactor, I'm willing to accept this kind of winning gamble."

"So, Mr. Vanke, do you need the glorious and handsome Tony to save you from prison?"

Vanke's ability to independently build the Ark reactor, even if it is an inferior version, is enough to add credibility to his words.

However, Tony still misunderstood what Ouyang Xiu meant, thinking that he wanted to use Iron Man's influence to get bail.

But Ouyang Xiu just shook his head and let out a sneer.

"Hehe, no, I'll find you soon."

"If you fail, I'll still tell you how to get the solution to the palladium poisoning problem, but when the time comes, I want you to provide a new Ark reactor."

......

After Iron Man left, Ouyang Xiu was still sitting upright on the bed board, and he didn't have any intention of escaping from prison.

Although this is very easy for his current strength, he only needs to use his lightsaber to cut through the prison door at will, and he can easily leave this place.

But there are too many strong people in this world, and it is not wise to disrupt the normal order too much and put yourself in the position of a villain.

Besides, he just had to wait and someone would arrange everything to get him out in the most appropriate way.

According to Ouyang Xiu's estimates, this time will not be too long.

Sure enough.

Without letting Ouyang Xiu wait long, an iron dinner plate was handed in, and a note was attached to the plate:

"Enjoy your potato feast."

Ouyang Xiu smiled slightly and removed a piece of artichoke-like object from the dinner plate.

It's one, timed C4 plastic explosives!
