14. Absolute believer in fate

If you were given a chance to call during your experience, who would you call?

Kindness... You may say that you will call the most important person in your life, to your parents, to your wife, to your children, but... If that were the case, I believe that at least two-thirds of them would call the guy who would be able to get him out of a desperate situation.

Don't be in a hurry to object... Because this is the instinct of human beings to survive, and never fight against instinct.

Tony Stark is a true believer in instinct, he will obey his instinct to have a night with any girl who can look good, he will obey his instinct to have an innocent and long love affair with the cute Miss Pepper Potts, and he will also obey his instinct to accept Stan's assignment to conduct an arms marketing in war-torn Afghanistan.

This is a contradictory person who is good at making his life more comfortable in any situation, but also has a self-held in desperate situations.

But it stands to reason that it is impossible for a heavyweight like him to appear in such a small scene.

But maybe fate really exists, in short, he appeared in a suit on the battlefield of this hot war, Afghanistan, a country known as the "graveyard", in the early years, the Soviet Union, which was so powerful that the world trembled, reaped a shameful defeat, and now, the United States has also reached into it.

I don't know where this barren and dead land comes from.

At this time, Tony sat comfortably in a reinforced bulletproof armored car, escorted to the military airport by heavily armed soldiers, the test launch of the Jericho missile that had just been tested in the base on the front line of the war was perfect, this tactical missile that could carry 17 warheads at a time and attack more than 25 targets at the same time destroyed 4 bases of the local resistance group hidden in different places at one time, and the effect was perfect.

This wave of commotion immediately won the unanimous approval of the Afghan field commanders, and the Jericho missile production line in Europe had just been completed, and more than 500 orders were received, which was enough to ensure the production and supply for the next three years, which greatly strengthened the cooperation between Stark Industries and the Ministry of Defense.

It can be said that killing two birds with one stone, Tony, who has completed this show, will naturally return to New York, including the media, no one wants him to stay in this hellish place in Afghanistan for too long, Tony Stark, you know, this name has been the hottest name in New York in the past 5 years, and any report related to him will cause a storm.

It is said that he is the dream of all men in New York, the dream lover of all women... Well, it's not an exaggeration at all.

"Hey, hey, big soldier, you have to taste this wine slowly!"

Tony has a special ability as a playboy who can always mingle with the people around him in the shortest possible time, regardless of their status, as in the case of now, when he is inviting the GIs who escort him to drink, and he is still drinking that outrageously expensive high-end whiskey.

The two GIs beside him were a little embarrassed to put down the wine glasses in their hands, probably afraid of foreign appearances, Tony glanced at them, and drank the wine in the wine glasses in his hand with a face.

"Oh, but I suddenly realized that drinking it like this has a different flavor!"

"Cheers, guys!"

So the next moment, the whole carriage became happy again, he leaned back on the hard and uncomfortable seat, threw two cigars to the two GIs, and whispered,

"How do you feel? After drinking $10 in one gulp, is there anything they say... Well, what's it called, a sense of accomplishment?"

"Well, no, I just think this thing isn't a bit good enough. ”

The older veteran put the cigar in his mouth and let out a puff of smoke, "If you want, I can send you a bottle of rum that my grandfather treasured for over 100 years when I get home, Mr. Tony, that's what really makes a man drink." ”

"Wow! 100 years?"

Tony reached out and shoved the 90% liquid bottle into the veteran's arms and gestured "OK" to him.

"Very well, then I'll change with you, I'll wait for your wine, old Teucer, don't let me down. ”

The veteran smiled, shook the wine bottle in his hand, and held the gun comfortably.

"$90? Haha, it looks like I'm making a lot of money. ”

"No, no, no"

Tony said seriously, "I'm the one who makes the most money, old Toucer, you know a bottle of rum that's more than 100 years old, put it in the auction house I invested in, and then make up a reliable story for it, how much money do you guess I can make?"

The veteran's expression changed for a moment, but just as he was about to say something, a strange whistling sound suddenly came from outside the car, and everyone looked up in unison, and saw a ball of fire in the sky smashing down, hitting the armored car in front of him.

"Boom"

The flames of the tactical missile explosion directly lifted the armored car away, and even the small half of the shell was blown open, Tony's eyes widened to the extreme at this moment, but the next second, the chaotic shouts and gunshots sounded farther away in the sand, and he stiffened his neck and turned his head, and saw a group of rebels rushing out on war horses and carrying grenade launchers.

Old Teucer shoved a pistol to Tony, twisted the bottle away, took a sip of it, pulled the bolt, and shouted to the soldier driving,

"What are you doing in a daze, rush out! We've been ambushed, contact the base! Quick!"

"Bang"

Just as another soldier picked up the intercom, the armored vehicle was hit by a grenade, and the explosion of the grenade was not enough to destroy the heavy reactive armor, but the whole vehicle was knocked over in place in the explosion, and several soldiers screamed and crashed into a ball.

Tony's head slammed against the car window, his mental tension was extreme, his hairs stood on end, he subconsciously clenched the pistol, at this time, only this thing could give him a sense of security.

"Borui! Borui! Damn!"

Old Teucer shook his companion fiercely, but the blood oozing showed that his situation was not very good, in the distance, the rebels had exchanged fire with other soldiers, Old Teucer gritted his teeth, pushed open the door of the armored car with difficulty, and turned his head to look at Tony, his expression as hideous as a beast.

"Are you afraid? Mr. Tony?"

Tony couldn't even speak, he shook his head bitterly and bitterly, and then Old Teucer put on a helmet and dragged him out of the carriage.

"Come with me, we need to get out of here! they're probably coming for you!"

The veteran raised his gun, killed the two rebels who rushed over, and pulled the panicked Tony Stark towards the small hill outside the battlefield, just after they had climbed the hillside, a strange whistling fell from the sky, Tony glanced at his hind legs, and frantically pushed old Teucer away, and the whole person also broke out under the crisis, and threw himself towards the back of the hillside.

The next moment, the grenade detonated in the air, Tony lay in the ravine, behind him, there was a scorching fire and a terrifying explosion, he felt something pierce his body, like a balloon filled with water was directly punctured, and all the power was released at this moment.

"Poof"

Probably never in his life to such a disgraced Tony opened his mouth to spit blood, and when he realized that he might be dying, he struggled to take out the phone from his arms with a shattered screen, which was almost broken in two and could no longer be used.

But Tony's blood-soaked fingers pressed a hidden bulge on the back of the phone, and the phone began to dial automatically, and the only existence he encountered in the first half of his life for more than 20 years was the life-saving hole card he left for himself, and it was also the only guy he could contact in this situation.

"Doot toot..."

"Hello?"

"Help me..."

"Hum", he just said two words with the last of his strength, and an indescribable exhaustion rushed to his heart, followed by endless darkness that enveloped his vision, and the mobile phone, which had almost fallen apart, smashed from his hand, collided twice on the ground, and finally turned into pieces.

On the other side of the night, Cyber opened the car door and walked into Nepal's capital airport again, he turned around and waved his hand to the driver who was about to be scared to death.

"Goodbye, friend, the Supreme Mage will protect you, you are a truly good person. ”

It's just that the driver, who is an ordinary person, nodded a little timidly, and then moved away from this monster as fast as he could, but he saw with his own eyes that this guy jumped from more than 100 meters and ran after him at a speed faster than the car, and finally only asked him to take him to the airport.

He's a complete weirdo.

Cyber didn't care what people thought of him, he breathed in the city air, moved his arms, and soon, he saw the private plane parked on the edge of the airport, with a cartoonish devil's head printed on it, he stepped forward, Santals and Alwyn in suits and leather shoes saluted him respectfully, hugged him warmly, and put him on the plane, and the moment he stepped into the cabin, a pistol was held against the back of his head.

"Wow, is this a welcome ceremony?"

He asked without looking back, and a hoarse voice came from behind him, "No, this is just the first step of a new start of fate, let's see, how lucky you are today..."

"Ding"

A silver coin flew into the sky, then landed steadily on the back of the black-gloved hand, the intact portrait, and the next moment, the muzzle of the gun left the back of Cyber's head, and he turned to see Harvey Dent, the feared two-faced man in Mexico.

He wore a strange dress, the style of a suit, but generally white, half black, like his terrifying face, like a handsome and handsome angel on one side, and a terrible hell devil on the other.

A guy who really turns life into a drama called "Contradiction".

"Long time no see, my brother. ”

Cyber opened his hands and wanted to give Harvey a hug, but the latter took a step back, flicked another coin, and then calmly bypassed Cyber's body, ignoring his warm hug, Shi Shiran sat on the seat of the plane, Cyber shrugged, threw the wooden box aside, and sat opposite Harvey.

Harvey looked at him and said seriously,

"I heard you're looking for a solution to your problem in this hellish place, have you found it?"

"No, unfortunately, no. ”

Cyber took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet next to him, broke the lid, and poured it into his mouth, "I only have 18 months left to live, and after that, or before that, I will die, and die a terrible death, do you have anything to say?"

Ordinary people will have a sense of horror in the face of Harvey Dent, but Cyber will not, he knows very well that the person sitting in front of him is more pure and trustworthy than 99% of ordinary people, provided that you can win the coin game with him all the time.

Cyber's advantage is that even if he loses, he won't die, so they can become odd friends.

In the face of Cyber's question, Harvey did not answer immediately, but took out a delicate set of tarot cards from the pocket next to him, turned it counterclockwise with skill, and handed it to Cyber, who took out one casually and gave it back to Harvey, his intact lover-like eyes, and the terrifying devil-like eyes stared at Cyber at the same time,

"No, you're not going to die!"

He turned the card around, and it was a knight with a blue helmet on a white horse, "Death..."

Cyber's eyebrows furrowed, and he said playfully,

"Doesn't that mean I'm dying?"

Harvey glanced at him and took a cigar humidor from his bosom, and soon the mellow smoke enveloped the entire cabin.

"You should read more if you don't have a brain, Mr. Cyber, and I'm surprised by your ignorance... Positive Death, one of the most mysterious cards in Arcana, put it to death and come back to life, through Hell will be greater, I have to say, you are lucky, I have never drawn this card for my divination. ”

"Oooh oh"

Cyber rubbed his forehead, "In other words, now I have to use luck to decide my life and death?"

"No! it's fate!"

Harvey put the tarot cards up and crossed his hands on his chin, "We are all believers in fate, I believe in the power of fate, and you... Are you really going to try to resist it?"

"Fate is a biao! never show even a trace of tenderness, if there is a chance, I will not hesitate to slap it, let it kneel on the ground and confess to me... In my opinion, people who believe in fate are crazy!

Cyber snorted maliciously, his gaze turned to the sky outside the porthole, above the clouds, there was an endless starry sky, he drank the last sip of wine in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and turned his gaze to Harvey, he looked at the face that was like a perfect line of separation, and whispered,

"But even in the face of such a terrible fate, I have never forgotten the promise I made to you, Harvey Dent, I have found a way to restore your body, do you want to learn?"
