Chapter 41: Machines

"For a moment?" Tony didn't care about Kurumi's last words, instead asked, "How fast is 'a moment'?" ”

Kurumi blinked and poured Tony's unfinished mineral water into it.

"So, does Mr. Stark want to drink boiling water, or ice?"

Tony twitched the corners of his mouth, "I don't think anyone would put those things in their stomachs." ”

"Perhaps?"

"What did you say?"

"Nope." Kurumi shook his head, "Let's boil the water first." ”

When Kurumi finished saying this, the water cup suspended in the air seemed to light up somewhere.

Tony felt very mysterious, but he couldn't tell where, this 'new discipline' was presented to him, as if a kitten was slowly scratching at his heart.

"Mr. Stark, please."

Kurumi stretched out his hand to signal, and the teacup seemed to have eyes, and "ran" directly above Tony's paper cup, pouring 100°C boiling water into it.

Looking at the boiling water still churning in the paper cup, Tony raised his eyebrows and said uncertainly: "Two or three seconds?" ”

Kurumi cupped his cheeks, "I'm not sure, if it's in a place with plenty of energy, it's just a moment, and there's no need to worry about consumption." ”

"It seems to be very fast now, but in fact, it has been stored for a long time, and it is estimated that it will be exhausted after three or four uses."

His brows furrowed, the wrinkles on his forehead never let go, and his eyes were fixed on the teacup suspended in mid-air, as if he wanted to see something in it.

Of course, he also heard the words spoken by Kurumi clearly, and grasped the point in an instant.

"You mean, in a place with plenty of energy?"

"yes, what's the problem?" Kurumi laughs, but Tony always senses that the other party has bad intentions.

"Is it okay to have electricity, nuclear energy, etc?"

Kurumi pinched his chin and searched for the memories in his mind.

......"Electricity may be fine, but it's only useful when you're preparing special items." For example, as long as the other party is not stupid, he will not do this. ”

"Yes." Tony nodded, much as he had imagined.

"Can you tell me why?" Tony probed.

"Of course, if there's anything secret, you don't have to tell me." Tony waved his hand, signaling that Kurumi didn't care.

Instead of answering his question first, Kurumi asked, "Are you really Stark?" ”

"If you don't mean my deceased father, I'm the only one."

The man in the sofa didn't care, "You're just not the same person out there who describes you." ”

"Oh?" Tony became interested, "What do you say about me out there?" Is there anything else I don't know? ”

"Arrogant, narcissistic, proud, emotional, not a good leader."

Tony was visibly stunned, and then poured the "quiet" boiling water from the paper cup into the teacup again.

"Which media? Speak of me like that? They obviously don't know me as a person. ”

"Ice water."

Before Tony could react, Kurumi gave the order.

The teacup flashed again, and if Tony was wearing 'Mark' now, he might be able to see the mark that had appeared in a split second.

"Mr. Stark, your ice cubes."

"Smack! ~”

The whole "white column" was poured out of the teacup and smashed into the water cup in front of Tony, and the paper cup was a little unstable at this time due to gravity.

Kurumi changed his position on the sofa again, "Actually, it's nothing to talk to you, after all, it's not a big deal." ”

"Really?" Tony couldn't deny it, "I thought you magicians had some rules and regulations or something. ”

"They do, but unfortunately I'm not a pure magician."

"Oh, that's a pity."

"For them, I ..... It must be considered heretical, right? Even Kurumi wasn't sure, "Maybe once they find me, they'll kill them~"

The words were calm, but he was here to discuss the issue of life and death, even Tony, who had experienced life and death, was slightly stiff at this time.

"How? Do you want to have anything to do with me? ”

"Haha" Tony looked at the gorgeous person in front of him, leaned back, leaned on the sofa and crossed his legs.

"Miss, I'm Tony Stark. It's a bit narcissistic to say that, but those magicians are never going to kill me. ”

Tony's eyes gradually became serious, "Miss, look at the current society, it is the era of civilization and the age of science and technology. At least I didn't see a single magician running out into the streets and throwing spells. ”

"This shows that they also have scruples, and I don't believe that they have the power to compare with nuclear weapons? There may be other wonderful uses, but for humans now, it is harmless at all. The threat they pose is not even as strong as a mutant. ”

"Of course, I'm not trying to belittle magic, I've always believed that they are extremely useful. Just like civilizations, they all have their own way of developing, and history has pushed us to abandon those things as a last resort in order to continue on the path of science. ”

Kurumi rolled his eyes, not paying attention to Tony's remarks, "You're not wrong to say that, for modern society, magic has indeed been abandoned by history, although not in the corner, but not much worse." ”

"With the rise of modern industry, factories are populating, the environment is being destroyed, and the free energy in the air is declining rapidly."

"It's not a simple thing to learn magic, although I don't know how the other party cultivates, but there shouldn't be an existence that can blow up the planet, right?"

"Hehe......" Tony laughed dryly, he felt that the madness was too fast, and he wanted to blow up the planet? It sounds easy, but if you want to...... Even if the whole world is attacked by nuclear bombs, it will only be an itch for this planet.

Human civilization will disappear in the long course of history, and the earth will only need 500 years to recover.

What is 500 years on the earth? Compared to the blink of an eye of a human being, it's not much worse, right?

Tony posed, "That is, since the beginning of modern times, there has been an unknown substance in the air that has been decreasing?" ”

Kurumi nodded, "That's not wrong for you to understand it that way. ”

"Then why not use other energy alternatives?"

Kurumi rolled his eyes, "I don't know, but if you put electricity or nuclear energy in your body, are you sure it's a mage and not a warrior?" ”

Tony has all sorts of ideas in his head right now, and he can't wait to go home and experiment right now!

Tony, who hadn't drunk any water and had a slightly dry mouth, moistened his tongue with his tongue, and a crazy thought came to his mind, "Since it's all energy, why don't we study a machine that converts electrical energy and nuclear energy into that kind of 'free energy'?" ”

Kurumi narrowed her eyes slightly, she had wanted to do this for a long time, but even the red queen had not mastered this technique.

But in Marvel, this unscientific world, the only thing that is likely to succeed is not to care about Tony Stark.
