Chapter 31: Tony's Suitors
In Iron Man III, Dr. Aldrich Killian,. M, the founder of Pioneer Technology, is also the R&D host of the Desperate Virus.
Killian was originally a crazy fan of Tony, but after Tony released the pigeon (Tony was messing with Maya at the time), Killian waited a night in the wind on the rooftop, and Tony didn't show up.
Killian was planning to commit suicide by jumping off a building, but at the last moment, he experienced what a desperate situation was and inspired a desire for revenge.
More than a decade later, Killian reappeared in high spirits, by this time as the founder of AIM and secretly worked with Maya Hansen to develop the Desperate Virus, and manipulated Mandarin behind the scenes to carry out his revenge plan for Tony.
Tony calls Killian "a demon created by me".
But this Killian in front of him, when he looked at Tony, where was the half hatred in his eyes? On the contrary, even Luke, a bystander, could see that it was a kind of love for reunion after a long absence.
Killian here is actually Tony's suitor?! Luke didn't know what to say.
Well, logically makes sense. In the original plot, Killian worships Tony like crazy. In this world, Toni is a woman, and everything will fall into place.
I just don't know what kind of relationship is between these two people? How far have the two developed? Luke thought to himself, and the gossip soul burned again......
Killian walked up, and he seemed to want to give Toni a hug directly, but Toni took a sharp step back, dodging his move.
Killian's face immediately showed a hint of embarrassment, but he quickly returned to normal. He straightened up, smiled gentlemanly and said, "Tony, it's great to see you." I've been worried about your safety for so many years. Now, you, me, and Maya, we're together again. ”
Wait, it's a bit of a mess...... Luke's mouth opened wide in surprise as he listened.
Seeing his expression, Tony next to him secretly gritted her teeth, eager to kick him. Afraid that he would misunderstand, Toni hurriedly explained: "Maya, along with Kylian, and I used to develop weapons technology for the Rebels, and at that time, there was a very large laboratory at the Rebel Headquarters with very complete equipment. But since it was breached, we've been separated. Killian and I are just friends. ”
Toni said it simply, and in Killian's presence.
This made Killian quite embarrassed for a while. While Toni is telling the truth, Killian doesn't think so. What he cared more about was why Toni was explaining this to the kid opposite?
Killian's gaze couldn't help but be fixed on Luke.
"Oh, that's right." After listening to Tony's explanation, Luke only let out a faint sigh. The heart said that it seemed that Killian was unrequited love, and Toni didn't seem to be interested in this guy at all.
It's normal to think about it, Toni has such a proud character, how can she easily fall in love with someone. What's more, Killian should have been a down-and-out boy at the foot of the slope in the first place, so it was even more impossible.
By the way, this guy has good feet now? This means...... Has the Desperation Virus been developed? Killian has already used it for himself?
Thinking of this, Luke's eyes narrowed imperceptibly.
Maya Hansen stepped up to play the round, laughing and hugging Tony's waist and talking to Toni about their past in the lab. Maya Hansen had always known what Tony's attitude towards Killian was, but she had to stand up for the sake of Killian's face.
After all, coming from the headquarters this time, and the thing about to be done, Killian has a lot more say than her.
Dr. Otto, of course, would not watch the relationship froze as soon as they met, and Dr. Otto smiled kindly and quickly tried to divert the topic.
However, Aldrich Killian's eyes were still fixed on Luke in front of him, his gaze locked on like a falcon. He had already developed a strong hostility towards Luke in his heart. It's not just the debatable attitude that Toni just showed.
"You're Luke? The programmer of the Demon King's Eyes? Killian said to Luke suddenly, a playful smile on his lips.
"I am." Luke raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Something?" ”
The smile on Killian's face became even more obvious, as if something suddenly made him happy, and he smiled: "I heard that you also named the Demon King's eyes, called Christina?" ”
Luke frowned: "What do you want to express?" ”
Killian finally couldn't help but smile on his face, he turned his head to look at Dr. Otto, and said in an unquestioning tone: "The order from the headquarters, Mandarin himself gave it, and we are here to take away the eyes of the demon king this time. It will henceforth serve the rebel headquarters, and we will use it as a powerful bargaining chip against Nacui. ”
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Dr. Otto's face was full of surprise, a little at a loss, and he didn't know what to say. Obviously, he had no idea that there was such a thing until then. At this time, he couldn't help but look at Luke, and complained a little in his heart that the headquarters had decided too hastily. However, he agrees that with Christina's help, the cause of resistance will indeed go to the next level. He'd seen the benefits of Christina being on the side of the Resistance.
Toni opened her mouth in surprise, she didn't expect the headquarters to suddenly make such a request. She looked at Luke, her eyes full of worry. Although the contact time was relatively short, she knew without guessing that Luke would definitely not agree to this request.
Maya Hansen's face was like this, as if she had known it for a long time. Obviously, the matter was set before they came.
Killian looked triumphant at this point, eager to appreciate Luke's impending ugly expression. He added some confusion and said, "Thank you for your contribution to the organization, and you don't need to participate in the rest of the matter." Immediately, his face turned cold, "Don't worry, I'll 'treat' it well." ”
Killian emphatically focused on the word "treat".
Luke glanced around, taking in everyone's expressions at this time.
To Killian's disappointment, Luke's face remained the same throughout.
Then, I saw Luke look at Killian opposite with the eyes of a fool, but his tone became colder than ever: "Then what if I don't agree?" ”
Luke already sneered in his heart.
Actually want to take his Christina away?
What can I say about these guys, they're too whimsical, right?
He had already made up his mind in his heart, if these people dared to force it, he didn't mind destroying this bullshit rebel army at all. Truth be told, he didn't have any affection for the rebels at all.
