Chapter 118: Surprise
Stark seems to have recently regained his nature as a prodigal child, and has once again become the famous playboy he used to be. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
His assistant and girlfriend, Potts, was so anxious about this that he even had a big fight with Stark, who was in the midst of a cold war.
And Stark's military friend, Colonel Rod, also felt extremely sorry when he saw Stark's appearance.
Originally, he was sincerely happy to see Stark become a superhero - Iron Man became famous all over the world, but now he only felt that he was looking at the wrong person.
Stark is Stark, not Iron Man!
That night, Stark had a party at his villa, and a large number of young models and celebrities circled around him.
Stark also wore his proudest invention, steel armor, and played with the babes like a toy, bombarding wine bottles with his powerful air cannon, and looking like he was extravagant.
His appearance seems to verify an old Chinese saying.
The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change!
Rhodes, who helped Stark in the congressional debate, happened to visit Stark's mansion and wanted to discuss the issue of armor with him, but suddenly saw Stark's decadent appearance as a playboy, and immediately became angry.
He went to Stark's laboratory, put on a suit of armor, and drove away the unrelated personnel in the villa to fight Stark.
"You don't deserve this armor!"
After the fight, he left in a rage, controlling his armor and soaring into the sky.
All the beauties around him left the villa, and Stark was alone in this empty room, looking inexplicably, looking at the figure in the sky that was flying away - Rhodes, who stole his armor, but there was no anger on his face, but a trace of deep sadness.
The huge mansion is empty, and he is the only one.
At this moment, Stark seemed to feel the loneliness of the whole world - there was darkness around him, and a light hit him, inexplicably lonely.
He took a sip of wine and laughed inexplicably.
"You have wine, I have stories, do you want to hear them?"
Suddenly, a young voice came.
Stark was startled, then retracted his smile and calmed down a little. Because of the voice, he was very familiar.
He tilted his head and smiled, "You should be doing things for S.H.I.E.L.D. right now, aren't you?" ”
"Yes." Roger said, "But I've heard you've been a little wrong lately, so I'd like to see a friend." ”
Stark said, "I'm normal. ”
"Nope." Roger said, "I know, it's not really you. Of course, this is what you used to be, but now, you are a superhero that everyone admires. ”
Stark said, "I'm a superhero and a playboy. ”
"But you're not a playboy in a superhero shell," Roger said. ”
This sentence has a lot of connotation.
What Roger really means is that Stark is not a playboy in a superhero shell, but a superhero in a playboy shell.
Although Stark drank the wine, his mind was still clear, and when he heard this, the corners of his lips couldn't help but smile in arc.
However, Stark sighed and said quietly, "How do you understand my situation?" ”
Roger said: "Isn't it poisoning?" Could this be something that can make you decadent? ”
Stark's eyes widened and his face was full of incredulity, "How do you know!! ”
Roger laughed, "I'm a magician, if you know my secrets, how can you still be called a magician?" ”
Seeing his relaxed look, Stark asked with some urgency, "Do you have a way?" ”
"Yes."
Roger replied categorically, then hesitated for a moment, and said, "But I can only help you relieve the toxins in your body, and I can't let you completely solve the problem of palladium poisoning." ”
If you want to completely solve the problem of palladium poisoning, you must find a new energy alternative.
Otherwise, it will always be a symptom rather than a cure.
Stark knows this, and so does Roger.
The expression on Stark's face darkened slightly, and he shook his head and said, "I can also alleviate it with medicine, treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and when the toxin precipitates to a critical point, it will become something that kills me sooner or later." ”
Roger said: "If you don't try, how do you know that my method won't work for you?" ”
As he spoke, he suddenly walked up to Stark and put his hand on top of Stark's head.
Stark was stunned, but not angry.
Although only his parents have put their hands on his head since he was a child, as a friend, you have to pay absolute trust.
He believed in Roger.
Rumble!
Suddenly, a stream of heat brewed out of Roger's hand, poured directly into Stark's Baihui acupoint, and then swept away from here towards the limbs and bones in his body.
This current of heat in Stark's body seemed to turn into a violent wind, or even a tornado.
Raging, invading.
Murderous.
Stark only felt a pain in his body, not intense but long-lasting, as if it was going to last forever.
Roger narrowed his eyes and abruptly withdrew his large hand.
Sou!
Stark was refreshed, and the pain in his body not only disappeared, but instead gushed out a feeling of extreme spirit.
"That's good." Stark couldn't help but laugh and said, "With such ability, even if you charge a million at a time, I am willing to invite you every day." ”
Roger said: "If this continues, within twenty years, your shares will become mine." ”
Stark said: "Why don't you think the market value of the shares will increase? ”
Roger smiled, "Without Stark's Stark Industries, I wouldn't have much hope." ”
Stark smiled, took a device, and tested the palladium element on his body.
"Three percent."
In a split second, Stark's eyes widened.
"This!"
He was a little excited, and even his words were no longer flexible.
"How did you do that?"
Roger heard this and smiled: "I said, this is my secret. ”
His secret weapon, of course, is the one he just mastered - divine power!
This extraordinary power can not only enhance the strength of the human body, but also strengthen the physical fitness, so as to achieve the effect of purifying the human body.
For palladium poisoning, divine power is the strongest antidote.
Stark knew that this involved Roger's secret, and when he heard this, he stopped asking questions.
Although palladium poisoning has been effectively alleviated, if no new element can be found as a substitute for armor energy, all antidote methods will still fall within the scope of treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.
So, Stark was surprised, but not overjoyed.
Stark thought for a moment and said, "You have a lot of confidence in Stark Industries, but something may happen recently. ”
Roger smiled and asked, "Are you preparing to step down as chairman of Stark Industries?" ”
Stark was surprised, "You're really a good friend of mine. ”
This sentence may be said in another way - you are really a roundworm in my stomach.
Roger laughed, "I said, I'm a magician. ”
He knew that since Stark had such an idea, it would not be far from Stark finding the real antidote.
