Chapter 90: Prince Eugen

Tony Stark's Stark Building in New York is not owned by the Stark Group, but is entirely his personal property, and it is for this reason that he can toss around the building as he pleases, using new clean energy sources that have not yet been tested to power the entire building.

The building is still in its final stages of commissioning, and when Ethan meets Tony, he is standing at his workbench, observing the power of the building.

After discovering Ethan's arrival, Tony put down what he was doing and walked straight towards Ethan with open arms...... Next to Diana.

"Oh, beautiful young lady, welcome to Stark Tower, I'm the owner here, Tony Stark, I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to know your name?"

Even if he has a stable relationship with Pepper-Potts now and doesn't really do anything, he can't get rid of his habit of talking.

"Hello, I'm Diana from Paradise Island. ”

Tony wanted a big hug, but he was stopped before he could get past Ethan.

"I'm thinking about your body, really. Ethan's expression didn't seem to be joking, and Tony wasn't sure if he was scaring himself by saying this. Looking back at Diana, although she looked stronger than a normal woman, she wouldn't let herself ...... Bar......

Curiously, Diana picked up a small object and accidentally pinched it.

Tony was sure that the little part on the table was an all-metal product, and it was impossible for ordinary people to break it, even if they wanted to leave a mark on it.

Wiping away the cold sweat that didn't exist, Tony turned his gaze to another tall man.

"Uh...... What do you call this one?"

"Logan. ”

After waiting for a while, and finding that Logan had no intention of continuing to speak, Tony could only nod speechlessly: "Okay, Logan...... It seems that you are a man with a lot of character, and I like people with character. ”

Tony greeted Laura again, and although Laura became more cheerful than before, she was still more indifferent to strangers, and reluctantly smiled at Tony in response.

Tony, who was continuously deflated, looked back at Ethan and opened his hand to make a hug gesture, but he only made a gesture and did not really hug Ethan.

Ethan knew the character of this guy and was not surprised at all, and after letting Diana and Logan take a casual look, Ethan and Logan walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

"You've changed partners, and what about His Majesty the King of Britain?"

"Arthur returned to his own country to inherit the throne and fulfill his duty. ”

"It seems that the next time I see you, I will really call Your Majesty. Tony glanced back at Diana and Logan, he didn't hide his movements, and asked very bluntly, "What are these two?"

"The princess of the Amazon family of Paradise Island...... Where is Paradise Island? That's where the Olympians were created...... Don't look at me like that, I'm talking about the Olympus god you know, Diana is the daughter of Zeus and the Queen of the Amazons. ”

"Protoss?"

"It's supposed to be a demigod...... Although the Amazons are ruled by the Olympian Protoss and have a long lifespan, they are not considered Protoss themselves. ”

With Thor, the son of Odin, as an example, Tony is not unable to accept a daughter of Zeus, but such an existence has actually come together with Ethan, if the one-eyed dragon knows, I'm afraid it will be even more jealous of Ethan, right? That scene must be interesting, Tony suddenly wanted to call Coulson.

"What about the other one?"

"Logan and Laura are both mutants and have some special abilities, but other than that, they are no different from ordinary humans. ”

According to Professor Charles's theory, mutants are actually humans who have awakened the hidden X gene. Of course, the X gene only exists in their world, like the Marvel Cinematic Universe where I am at this time does not have X gene.

When he thought of this, Ethan didn't dare to guarantee it, he remembered that Disney acquired Fox, and the copyright of the X-Men series also returned to Marvel, although he didn't see that scene in his previous life, but there is no guarantee that there will be no mutants in the subsequent development of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

He could only vaguely say that there had been some evolution of human beings in a certain world, and a group of mutants had been born.

"It's kind of interesting......"

"It's best to stop your thoughts, mutants aren't doing very well in that world, so some of your thoughts are likely to anger them. ”

Simply told Tony what happened to Wolverine and Laura. Despite doing a lot of bastards, Tony, who has a sense of justice in his heart, is very angry after hearing about the tragic experiences of Laura and Logan, and promises Ethan not to make any demands that will make them feel unpleasant.

"You came to me this time, it shouldn't be as simple as introducing me to two new friends, right?"

"Of course not. ”

Ethan didn't say anything polite to Tony, and simply told his intentions neatly.

"Shipbuilding?"

Tony had long guessed that Ethan's place of life was a world full of water, and it wasn't strange that he needed a boat, but after listening to some of Ethan's requests, he realized that the world he lived in didn't seem to be very peaceful.

"There shouldn't be a big problem, but it's not realistic to build warships with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons directly. ”

Tony didn't think about whether it was appropriate or not, but simply considered the technical issues.

"According to your requirements, this ship will use a lot of new technologies that I don't even know at all, and considering that there are many problems to be solved, you can't wait years for me to study slowly, so I suggest that you don't build a big ship at first, but build a smaller transition first, which is also a platform for experimenting with new technologies. ”

On this kind of issue, Tony's advice is very reasonable, and Ethan also feels that it is not realistic to create a finished product at once with something that he doesn't even have a clue.

Even if you want to build a small magic prop by yourself, you have to start simple, solve many problems, and then build more powerful equipment.

Shipbuilding can be much more complicated, not to mention the use of technology, magic, and magic stone technology that Tony doesn't know at all, and he is only just getting started, and the kind of thing that directly creates a perfect finished product only exists in dreams, and geniuses such as Tony also need time to study.

But then Tony's words made him understand that he still underestimated this guy.

"So let's build a smaller one with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons. This is much less difficult, and at the same time, it can also accumulate experience for the subsequent construction of big guys. ”

“......”

"What's wrong?"

"More than 10,000 tons of displacement is called small?"

"Compared to the forty or fifty thousand tons you asked for as soon as you opened your mouth before, this is really small. No matter how small it is, there is not much reference for the construction of such a large ship, and this level is just right, and it is possible to accumulate technology and at the same time figure out the equipment for research and testing. ”

Instead of standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Tony went to the workbench and began to wonder how Ethan's ship should be designed.

"What do you want from the shape of this ship?"

Originally, Ethan considered a few appearances, but those were all battleships with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons. Now that the tonnage is shrinking, these few will definitely not be used, and I really can't think of a suitable one for a while.

"Let's start with the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer. ”

Tony was just about to ask Jarvis to call the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer's ship construction when Ethan reached out to stop him: "A warship with missiles as the main means of weapons is not suitable. ”

Ethan said that he would provide him with some information about the magic stone cannon, and his new battleship should be a warship that fires energy cannonballs or beams as the main long-range attack mode, and the design scheme that paid more attention to naval guns during World War II was more in line with his needs.

The Arleigh Burke class has only one small-caliber main gun, and the main means of attack is a vertical launch system. If this design is chosen, the logistical supply problem alone is a headache for Ethan.

Unless he envisioned a wide space inside the battleship, and then let the idea of the battleship having its own weapons factory come to fruition, then it didn't matter what weapons were used.

"Then I'll use a World War II cruiser as the basic framework. ”

In terms of tonnage and gun-based requirements, World War II cruisers were the most suitable, and after Jarvis listed a large number of pictures of World War II warships, Ethan pointed directly at one of them.

"Just use this. ”

"Prince Eugen?" Tony glanced at Ethan, "You like this?"

"It just so happened that the ship was very lucky. He hadn't thought about it before, but after seeing this ship, Ethan immediately decided: "Just choose this Prince Eugen." ”

"As you wish, it's your ship anyway. ”

Tony pouted, he didn't look down on these outdated old ships at all, in his eyes, these ships were rubbish in terms of appearance and structure and detailed layout, even if Ethan had already set the basic shape, he still couldn't suppress the impulse in his heart, and began to make various modifications to the structure and appearance of the ship and the overall layout.

"The entire obsolete hull needs to be adjusted...... The ship's architecture needs to be overhauled...... Chimneys? It's a crime for this thing to take up so much space...... Boom, seaplane, a vertical take-off and landing plane, for a ride?"

Seeing Tony casually change the projection of Prince Eugen beyond recognition, Ethan didn't feel anything wrong, it was impossible to build a new ship completely according to the design of the World War II era.

Ethan wanted to build a better warship, as long as it looked about the same, he didn't really want to rebuild a Prince Eugen or anything, as long as it met his requirements, even if Tony made a giant turtle...... Well, that's really unacceptable.
