Sean, who was sitting on the plane, was browsing the recent headlines, and he was quite curious in his heart whether there was a "Manchurian adult" in this world.

In the original timeline, the evil leader of the Ten Rings "Mandarin" is just a puppet, a fabricated fake character, and his real identity is actually a down-and-out British actor who loves Shakespeare and a lavish life, and is placed on the stage to attract attention.

But as Iron Man's old enemy, Lord Man did really exist - an unknown parallel world. Born in the far East, he claimed to be a descendant of Genghis Khan, had a similar experience to Tony Stark, was rich at a young age, had a brilliant mind, and pursued the legendary art of immortality with the help of deep pockets.

It is said that the other party has ten magical rings with different abilities, is proficient in the ancient secret art of Xuanmen, and has put Iron Man in danger several times, and is an extremely terrifying supervillain.

"It's funny."

Sean stared at the Ten Rings motif on the computer screen, ten rings connected into a ring, this symbol was not new to him, long ago, when Tony had not yet become steel, the former CEO of Stark Industries, Obadistein, had collaborated with Afghan warlords to murder the playboy and embezzle the Stark family's military-industrial empire.

It was the same gang that kidnapped Tony Stark, the leader of the warlords and a member of the Ten Rings, who had destroyed their lair with Iron Man, but now the terrorist group has re-emerged and has a new leader.

"Tony, is this a debt for a mistake made back then?"

The corners of Sean's mouth hooked up a faint smile, maybe Iron Man was still in the dark, and he didn't understand what was going on, but he knew it clearly.

Aldridge Killian, whose name has been appearing in tech magazines or weekly magazines and magazines lately, is almost as frequent as he once was, and the tall, high-spirited man on the screen is the founder of AIM (Pioneer Technology), the second largest emerging scientific research institution in North America, excluding Ambrera, which has risen unstoppably.

In recent days, the name Aldridge Killian has often been compared to Sean Seepers, just as the latter was seen by the media as a rival to Tony Stark.

It is said that this man was born with a physical disability and was often bullied and ridiculed by his classmates during his middle school years, until he entered college, and Kirian showed a genius mind and won the admiration and respect of many people.

This kind of inspirational story, after being exaggerated and exaggerated by the media, was immediately crowned as a "model for teenagers" and "the American dream of the new era", this routine is the same as when Sean first rose, putting layers of dazzling halos on himself, telling the hardships and efforts of the past, arousing the public's sympathy and appreciation, and winning the favor of the news media.

The young people who read these messages will smile, obviously this is also a "genius" who is good at showmanship and packaging, people always like bumpy experiences and tragic pasts, often such stories will touch people's hearts and resonate - of course, the protagonist must have a happy ending in the end.

Without these spices, how can we cook a pot of fragrant chicken soup for the soul, allowing the audience to substitute themselves until they are moved to tears and immersed in it?

Having said that, geniuses always have a paranoid side, and Killian idolized Tony Stark as a teenager, believing that the proud man who was towering and invincible was a true genius, and looked forward to meeting or talking to him one day.

This kind of worship psychology, just like Michael Jordan, who wants to be a Beatle and plays basketball, is an uninhibited and clever guy like Tony, at least half of the young people in the United States will regard him as an idol, and the other half will envy and envy this lucky person who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

After graduating from university, Killian founded AIM on his own, struggling to keep the institution running while keeping an eye on the research of academia, until New Year's Eve 1999, when he met his admirer at an academic symposium in Bern, Switzerland.

Unfortunately, the result was not pleasant, and it could even be said to be a heavy blow. At that time, Tony Stark was still a cynical playboy who liked to take pleasure in sarcasm, and when he saw the disabled and shabby-dressed Killian, he made a not-so-funny joke with the other party, which made the loyal fan blow the cold wind on the rooftop of the rooftop all night.

Presumably, he wouldn't have known at the time that his unintentional actions had hurt the fragile heart of an avid fan, and had also created an enemy who almost killed him.

"Desperate virus." Sean spat out a word softly.

This is an early invention by Maya Hansen, the original prototype of which was a bioelectric technology that could enter the repair center of the human brain and recode it, and if the human biological system was compared to a computer, the Desperate Virus was the top hacker who infiltrated and tampered with.

Later, various ideas were derived, such as the ability to edit DNA and modify gene fragments at will, which is the most mature stage of technological development, and only for the time being, limb regeneration, awakening immunity, and enhancing physical fitness are no longer unattainable scientific problems.

Many venture capital firms are extremely optimistic about the future development of AIM, believing that in the near future, the other party will be able to compete with the rapidly growing Ambrera.

Aldridge Killian, who has frequently made headlines in newspapers, has been hailed by the public as a "tech upstart", and has been in the limelight for a while.

Sean tapped his fingers on the table as Maya Hansen sold the Desperate Virus technology to Killian due to lack of funds, and later joined Ambrera to focus on genetic engineering research projects with Dr. Connors.

The reason why he did not continue to support Dr. Maya Hansen's experimental research on the Extinct Virus was because this seemingly promising cutting-edge technology had a major flaw that could not be repaired, all human beings have 99 percent of the same genes, but the difference of 0.1 percent determines that everyone is a different individual.

This leads to the irregular rejection of the desperate virus, not everyone can adapt to the process of coding genes, and to solve this problem, it is an extremely huge computational project, from the price paid to the results of the harvest, it is obvious that the gains outweigh the losses.

It can be seen from Killian's research process that it is completely filled in by human life, recruiting retired soldiers to become test subjects, the unstable desperate virus in the early stage, the mortality rate is extremely high, the skin temperature caused by the body is too high, and finally it is out of control and causes a huge explosion, which is full of danger and uncontrollable.

Maybe this cutting-edge technology can create a super army, but it is quite difficult to apply it to all mankind, and even Sean, who has Skynet, has no idea of restarting it for the time being.

Therefore, it is obvious that there must be an unknown hidden force behind the rising scientific upstart, the new Aldridge Killian, who can develop the desperate virus to the human application stage in just thirteen years, and the financial and human resources required to pay for this are absolutely astronomical.

The bombing attack planned by Mandarin was actually to cover up the failure of the experiment of the desperate virus, and no bomb wreckage could be found at the scene, because the real "bomb" was actually human beings themselves.

"Is it the Hydra behind it, or the legendary 'Manchurian'?"

Sean narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly with interest.
