"With a wind speed of 30 miles and a height of 15,000 feet, you can now enter the landing zone......"

Following the driver's notification, Tony, dressed in steel armor, leaps out of the hatch.

Red and gold, the cool appearance of the steel armor in a chic posture of free fall, in the dazzling color fireworks fell from the sky, the passionate music resounded throughout the stage, the lights focused on the iron man with open hands, a column of snow light fell, behind a row of hot body backup dancers, kicking dazzling long legs, cheers under the stage, applause warmly.

It was the Stark Messe in Flushing, New York, and despite Pepper's dissuasion, Tony insisted on holding this grand solo show.

The circular stage at his feet rotated and opened, and several automatic robotic arms stretched out from it, disassembling Tony's steel armor with high efficiency, feeling the overwhelming cheers and shouts from below, and the playboy in a black suit said that he enjoyed it, and he loved the feeling that the eyes of the world were focused on him, from the enthusiastic call of the people, igniting the heart that was gradually eroded by palladium toxin.

With the flag of the United States fluttering on a huge screen, Tony stands at the center of the stage, he has only recently finished a hearing of the Military Council, and even though some members of the military want to take the steel armor from their hands, they still fail despite the Playboy's arguments and fierce resistance.

Although those energy giants still release negative comments about new energy from time to time, but this kind of exaggerated and untrue reports can not interfere with Tony's unwavering determination, at this time Iron Man is full of confidence, he thinks that even if he throws away the identity of a big arms dealer, he can still build a new energy era belonging to Stark!

"Justin Hammer's kind of beam-jumping clown, where does he deserve to be compared to himself." Tony couldn't help but laugh secretly when he thought of the other party's funny appearance at the hearing.

"Some people say that the world has been in such a peaceful state for so long because of my existence, and some people say that the playboy Tony Stark has been reborn from the ashes and transformed into a superhero, and Uncle Sam can sit in a recliner and drink iced tea leisurely, all because of a nosy, capable Iron Man who is defending the world and maintaining ......peace."

As always, with a narcissistic tone, Tony is like a big star, immersed in the carnival shouts of the audience, and the passionate flame almost ignites this night sky.

Just like Pepper said, Stark Industries has been subject to controversy and public opinion criticism recently, and after losing the Ministry of Defense as a backer, the transformation of this giant enterprise in the military industry has been quite difficult, the new energy has been coldly received by the market, and the board of directors is also full of various dissatisfactions.

"But I want to say that none of this is true, that the long-term world peace is not due to me, that the power of one person is not enough to turn decay into magic, and that what one person does is not important - inheritance is the most important thing! What should we leave for the future, so starting next year, for the first time since 1974, outstanding talents from different countries and fields around the world will be here to share their common vision and create a better future! ”

“…… We don't matter, the legend is behind me, thank you, please stop talking about me - welcome to Stark Messy. ”

A large high-definition screen on the stage began to show a video of a speech by Howard Stark, the former chairman of Stark Industries and Tony's long-deceased father, decades ago.

Tony walked off the stage, took a deep breath, seemed to be full of nostalgia for the enthusiastic cheers that broke out in the audience just now, he liked the lights, the stage and people's eager eyes, the kind of excitement that attracted everyone's attention, especially for him now, soon this playboy with countless halos and multiple identities will never enjoy this wonderful feeling again.

"I don't know if anyone will feel sad after I leave, well, Pepper will definitely cry not decently."

Standing in the open backstage, Tony took out a portable blood detector, which showed that the amount of toxins in his blood had increased much compared to before, and he pursed his lips and sighed imperceptibly.

Death has always been the greatest fear of human beings, and it is also the ultimate destination.

"It's a rare occasion for Tony Stark to be humble." A playful voice came from behind.

"Hell! I can see you anywhere! Tony put away the blood detector in his hand and turned to look at Sean, who had appeared here for some reason.

Truth be told, he rarely admires a certain person, and rarely hates a certain person, because most people are not qualified to be recognized by him, while others are not even treated with the treatment that he hates and despises.

However, the black-haired young man in front of him had taken care of both. Tony, who has understood the other party's experience, not only admires Sean's rise from unknown to famous, but out of a certain man's unique psychology, he also doesn't like him, perhaps because of the events in the last prom, which made the playboy subconsciously regard Sean as an imaginary enemy.

"This was an invitation from Miss Potts, and I heard that Stark Industries' transformation was not successful, and currently only received orders for wind farms and exhaust gas treatment plants, and it just so happens that Osborne Industries also has some ideas for new energy sources."

Sean stretched out his hands, of course he knew that Tony Stark, who seemed to be willful and reckless, was actually prepared in his heart, closing the weapons manufacturing factory was not a whimsical decision, the other party had found a bigger gold mine, if the new energy successfully opened the market, it would have broad prospects, enough to change the pattern of the world.

That's why those energy giants will keep finding fault with Stark Industries, just imagine, relying on the monopoly market of the old energy system, how can they tolerate Tony to break the inherent system and play according to the rules of the game again, secretly promoting the hearing is only the first step, and there will be more drastic means waiting for this playboy in the future.

Sean restrained his smile and said softly: "Maybe you don't know, Osborne Industries also has a good development in the field of energy, such as smart grids, power supply throughout New York City, and circuit erection, almost all of which are completed by us. And Dr. Otto of Ambrera, who has been trying to create a cheap and efficient new energy source, you must have heard of the artificial sun project. ”

Tony didn't have to deal with the-for-tat before, he had heard a little about Dr. Otto, and if it weren't for Ambrella's advance, he would have planned to hire him as the head of the energy department at Stark Industries.

"I'll leave it to Pepper, you don't have to tell me." Glancing at the young face, Tony's heart welled up with a dark emotion.

"As a decent biologist, I have to remind Mr. Stark that he died of palladium poisoning...... It's painful. ”

Sean could see the faintly blackened blood vessels hidden under the makeup, and the palladium toxin spread from his chest to his neck like a bewitching flower that sucked Tony's life force, about to kill the arrogant dandy.

"You're not without a choice, Tony, and you still have a chance to save it before the toxin completely eats away at your body."

The man known as Iron Man was silent for a moment, and his cynical face rarely showed a solemn expression, and his slightly dim eyes regained their shining brilliance.

"You won't understand." Tony pointed to his chest, where was the Ark reactor, "We always have to leave something for this world after we die, my father founded Stark Industries, so that the family's name is imprinted in history, Tony Stark's departure will not be remembered, he is just a bohemian lucky man, but Iron Man deserves everyone's memory." ”

"Is this Tony Stark's hero complex?" Sean asked.

"It's every man's hero complex." Tony replied.

The young man looked at the bearded man with a sparkle in his eyes and said softly, "If there is wine now, I would like to have a drink with you—to Iron Man." ”

"I'm not in the habit of drinking with men." Tony smiled freely, his back disappearing into the shadows backstage.
