Chapter 33: Pepper in distress
After Mercer's instructions, Flint went straight home, accompanied by Dana, who had left work early. Although he doesn't need to eat or drink, he still has a sense of taste and hunger under the effect of the black light virus.
"Brother, what kind of character do you say Pepper is in Tony's eyes?"
"Someone who can deliver life, someone who absolutely trusts."
Dana didn't believe it, and asked, "Then why would he still be so sprinkling flowers?" ”
"Hehe, because that playboy doesn't know what love is, and he doesn't know how to treat women, and at the same time he is too attractive to women. By the way, you don't have any thoughts about him, do you? ”
"No, those who are deceived by him are those who do not understand, or have other purposes, and I am not among them."
"That's good......"
The two of them talked and went back to the villa, and Mercer made a decent meal of pasta according to the method of a cooking show, and then it was boring and enviable to watch TV, drink beer, and chat about life.
It wasn't until after 11 o'clock at night that Melinda, who had finished working overtime, came back.
Melinda has now lived in Mercer's house for a long time, and she even feels that she has been poisoned by Mercer, and she can't think about the poison when she sees it, maybe this is dependence.
Before Melinda's upheaval, Mercer had already left a powerful impression on her, and after the accident, Mercer took the initiative to appear again, and now Melinda is becoming more and more dependent on Mercer.
There was nothing to say that night, so it was naturally a cloud and rain, and Stark Industries was safe and sound.
Mercer's life was quiet again, though he knew that Obadia Stan might be working on his armor.
"Huh? No, how is Obadia Stan studying his armor now? ”
Mercer suddenly reacted while drinking beer that Obadia Stan had relied on the clues provided by the robber leader to study his armor in the plot.
But now that the bones of those robbers are gone, how can he study his own armor, does it mean that this guy will continue to endure it, or find another way?
Mercer thought the situation was a bit more than expected, but Flint was now so close to Tony and Pepper that he thought it should be fine.
It wasn't until panicked Pepper called that Mercer understood Obadia Stan's plan.
"Alex, there's a weirdo trying to assassinate me and Tony, and now that Flint is out fighting that killer, Tony doesn't know what's going on."
"I'll go over now, where are you?"
"I'm hiding in a room on the 17th floor of the Stark Building, Tony should be on the top floor, go rescue Tony first!"
"Hmm!"
By the time Mercer answered the phone, he had already gotten up and headed for Stark Industries, and he didn't want Iron Man, who was about to show his might, to die just after he appeared. At the same time, he was wondering what kind of killer could actually hold Flint back.
……
Stark Tower, 17th floor, corridor.
The weirdo killer and Flint are inseparable, or rather, Flint is beaten on one side, and the occasional counterattack has little effect.
It's not that Flint is merciful, it's that this weirdo in a pure black bodysuit can recover from his injuries almost instantly, and the feeling is as if he is immortal.
Tony, who didn't have time to put on his steel suit, was suddenly attacked by Obadia Stan, taking away the energy source from his chest.
In this way, Obadia Stan did not stop studying his own schemes, and his people found the remaining blueprints in the cave, and a group of talents gathered to build a huge armor for himself, but he had no idea about the arc reactor.
At the same time, he discovers that Pepper is actually investigating him, so he decides to attack Tony directly and seize the arc reactor.
However, he discovers Flint's special abilities from the surveillance video, and Flint follows Tony almost inseparably, which makes him unable to do anything until he contacts a well-known mercenary killer a day ago.
"You're really special, turned into sand? It's a bit of a dazzle! But it doesn't seem to be of any other use, huh? By the way, you won't turn into sand underneath you, will you? That's so pitiful, uh, your wife is pathetic too, I said, are you not able to speak now? Actually, the two of us are a bit similar, both belong to the kind that can't be killed, whether you are interested in doing it with me, or if you have any business to find me, as long as I have money, I can kill anyone......"
Flint was not afraid to fight the other party, although he couldn't hurt this weirdo, but this weirdo couldn't hurt him either, anyway, after a while, Mercer came. However, this guy's mouth is really too cheap.
Chatter, preamble and afterword, and indiscriminate ......
Flint simply didn't know how to describe this bastard.
"You ......"
Flint saw that the strange man was about to speak again, and in an instant a stream of sand directly blocked the other party's mouth, Flint didn't expect to kill the other party now, but as long as he could drag him down, it would be good to shut him up.
The battle between the two "undead monsters" feels fresh at first, but after a long time, it feels like an infinitely looping song, or that kind of lullaby.
Flint and the Monster Slayer are completely restrained by each other, Flint is good at attacking and blocking in a wide area, he can't deal effective damage, but he can completely stop each other's steps.
The Monster Slayer's combat skills are several levels above Flint, and his strength and speed are on par with Flint's, but his attacks are completely ineffective against Flint, and he can't even break through in the corridors with limited space.
After all, it's easy to break up a cloud of sand, but it's almost impossible to beat a cloud of sand to annihilation.
At this time, in Tony's laboratory, the artificial intelligence Jarvis, that is, Tony's housekeeper, is calling for help, while Tony himself is dying.
I have to thank Obadia Stan for not giving Tony the final blow, otherwise Mercer would have only seen Tony's body.
Tony, pale, looked at Mercer flying in through the window, trying to laugh, but found that his facial features were completely stiff, and with all his strength, he pointed to the old arc reactor that was on the table.
After a long experience of nausea, Mercer reached into the hole in Tony's chest and installed the arc reactor.
Tony wasn't worried that Mercer would harm him, which was not the same as absolute trust in Pepper, but was forced by recognition of strength and a situation that had no choice.
……
"Flint, take Pepper to Tony and I'll deal with him."
Mercer's voice came, he had been observing the strange man outside the window for a while, and he had already figured out the other party's abilities.
By the way, the Black Light Virus can now allow Mercer to attach itself to vertical glass like an insect.
This weirdo's strength, agility, defense, recovery ability and other qualities are far beyond ordinary people, especially the kind of recovery ability that defies the sky.
The sand man's charged punch is in no way inferior to a grenade, but many times it can't even break through the opponent's defense, and even if it is broken, the injury that is fatal to ordinary people will recover almost instantly.
"Okay!"
When Flint saw that it was Mercer, he turned into dust and went into the room where Pepper was hiding, leaving the strange man with Mercer.
Mercer had already turned into a complete body with a height of three meters and five at this time, and the two-meter-long giant blade made people shudder.
"Who are you? You ......"
Mercer's attack directly shut up the weird killer,
