Under the scorching sun, the yellow sand around is hot, Tony. Stark struggled to peel off the armor that had been turned to scrap metal, shook his head, his consciousness a little blurred, and he looked up at the sky, only to feel exhausted.

At this moment, a shadow came up from the back of his head, and a soft greeting came from above his head: "Hello, sir, can I help you?" ”

Raise your hand to shield yourself from the sunlight that is letting in through the cracks, Tony. Stark narrowed his eyes and gasped and replied, "Of course, if you can pull me up, I'd be very grateful for your help." ”

With a smile, Han Lie poked out on his toes, hooked slightly, and tony. Stark picked up from the sand and grabbed him by the shoulders to make him stand.

At this time, Han Lie looked at the down-and-out man in front of him with great interest.

He has many titles, such as the American rich, the lascivious playboy, the genius scientist, etc., but the most famous is the name he will be widely known in the future - Iron Man.

Tony. Stark bent down, took a few breaths with his long mouth, and after feeling the burning heat from his throat to his lungs, he looked up again.

Eyes meet Han Lie, Tony. Stark asked a little tiredly, "Thank you for your help, do you have water?" ”

Of course, Han Lie didn't carry mineral water with him, and the water vapor in the desert area was too scarce, and it was difficult to gather with mana, so he spread his hands and pretended to be helpless: "I'm sorry, I can't help." ”

Shaking his head in disappointment, Tony was about to say something when Han Lie suddenly interrupted him and turned around and said, "It seems that your real helper is here." ”

The sound of machinery came from the other side of the mountain bag, and he followed Han Lie's gaze. Tony saw two military helicopters and immediately raised his arms. He let out a long sigh of relief.

Returning his gaze to Tony, Han Lie smiled and said, "Sir." You must be a big person, why do I think you seem to be a little familiar? ”

Wiping the blood marks on his body, Tony replied, "Stark Industries, you should have heard of it, I am Tony. Stark. ”

Nodding his head in sudden realization, Han Lie said with a smile: "It's really you, it's an honor to meet you, Tony, I'm Han Lie." ”

said. He shook Tony's hand, and at this time, the helicopter spotted the two of them, and landed next to them, and a group of American soldiers dressed in desert camouflage rushed down, stepped forward quickly, and surrounded Zhun Han Lie.

One of the black officers pointed his gun at Han Lie and shouted at him, "Let go of the hostages and raise your hands." Or you'll be shot on the spot! ”

Frowning, Han Lie looked at Tony dissatisfied. Stark, Tony waved his hand and shouted at the black officer, "Put down your gun." Jimmy, he's not a terrorist, he's my friend! ”

For the first friendly human to meet after the catastrophe immortal. Tony. Stark still has a good impression of Han Lie, and of course he won't sit idly by and misunderstand.

Hear the words. The black officer lowered his rifle, but did not lose his vigilance against Han Lie. The emergence of Asians in this region is definitely not simple.

But the most important thing at this time is Tony. Stark, he turned his eyes to look at Tony, and after seeing that there were no obvious wounds on his body, he temporarily let go of the heart that had been hanging.

Sighing, the black officer raised his chin and teased Tony dissatisfiedly, "Do you still sit on your happy jeep?" ”

In the face of this sentence from a black officer, Tony. Stark lowered his eyes, curled the corners of his mouth helplessly and smiled, speechless.

Handing the rifle to the soldier next to him, the black officer leaned over and grabbed Tony. Stark's shoulder, concerned, "Come with me next time, okay?" ”

Talking, with Tony. Stark came to a hug, and when he saw this, Han Lie also understood the identity of this black officer. Rhodes, Iron Man's best friend, the future "war machine".

Jim. Rhodes is a U.S. Army colonel and this time accompanied Tony. Stark travels to the Middle East to discuss the arms business, but is attacked by terrorists, resulting in Tony's kidnapping.

Tony. In the months since Stark was kidnapped and disappeared, Colonel Rhodes searched everywhere every day, and it was only today, alarmed by the previous explosion, that Tony was finally found.

After venting his worries for months, Colonel Rhodes was going to take Tony with him. Stark departed, and Tony pulled away from his supporting arms and looked at Han Lie.

Whistling, Tony asked, "Hey, come on, Han, I'm going to ask you to come to my house for a while to thank you for your help." ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Han Lie glanced at Colonel Rod, who was full of guard, and smiled happily: "I don't dare to ask for ears." ”

…………

The United States, a secret military base somewhere, is subordinate to the Department of Territorial Strategic Intervention Execution Logistics, or, in other words, to put it mildly, by a generic name - S.H.I.E.L.D.

Inside the base, a good-looking S.H.I.E.L.D. agent quickly pushed the door open and walked over to a tall black man.

The black man was looking through the glass, looking into the distance, and when he heard the movement, he asked without looking back, "Coulson, why are you in such a hurry, what happened?" ”

These two men are none other than the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. - Nick. Fury, as well as elite Agent Phil. Colson.

Handing the information to Nick, Phil said, "Find Tony. Stark, he's flying back to the U.S. on the plane......"

Take the information, Nick. Fury replied expressionlessly, "Yes, I think the old men in the Ministry of Defense should be happy, but I don't think it's worth your rush." ”

Phil. Coulson was as calm as water, but his eyebrows could not escape the confusion and shock, and he replied: "Roll back, and there is another person who appears with him." ”

After a pause, Phil continued: "An unexpected person......"

Looking at the avatar on the profile, Nick. Fury's expression became stern, and he was surprised: "It's unbelievable that it's him, it seems that we won't be very peaceful recently." ”

Phil Zhengse said: "The problem of mutants is getting worse, he has disappeared for decades, and he suddenly appeared at this time, is there any conspiracy." ”

After a moment of silence and thought, Nick said, "Is he the only one?" There should have been a mutant and a female government agent who disappeared with him back then. ”

Nodding. Phil. Coulson replied, "He's alone, based on what we have. His danger level is at least C, what should he do? ”

I flipped through the information in my palm again. After a moment's hesitation, Nick ordered, "Send Agent Romanov to test and see if you can get any information, but don't provoke him." ”

After a softening tone, he sighed, "The mutant issue needs to be considered by the elders of the Congress, and we don't need to meddle for the time being." ”

…………

In New York, a large military transport plane cut through the sky and slowly landed at the airport. Tony. Stark said to Han Lie, "I'll let you see my secretary, Miss Potts, she's very beautiful." ”

Pursing his lips, Han Lie was noncommittal and replied, "I've seen countless beauties, Tony, don't show off in front of me." ”

Tony. Stark was dissatisfied, "Hey, are you going to compete with me?" I'm a famous playboy in New York. ”

He grinned, grinned, and snorted imperceptibly. Han Lie didn't pay attention to him anymore, and the relationship between the two had improved a lot along the way.

After all, they are all lust-eating believers, Han Lie and Tony. Stark's common topic. That's a lot.

Just now on the plane, the two talked about the blonde beauty and the redhead beauty, Tony. Stark says blonde beauties are his favorite. And Han Lie felt that each had its own merits.

So in order to pour out his opinion to Han Lie and convince him. Tony chattered a whole bunch of what he thought was good for blondes.

Finally, also put his personal secretary. Pep. Potz moved out as an example to further prove himself right.

Han Lie responded to all changes with the same, no matter how he said it, but he always held his own concept and did not take a step back.

While the two were arguing, with a click, the plane door opened, and Colonel Rod, who was sitting behind the two, got up and patted Tony. Stark's shoulder, "It's here, let's go down, Tony." ”

Colonel Rhodes was holding his arm, Tony. Stark stepped out of the plane, and in the bright sun, a blonde lady in a uniform suit stood outside, waiting quietly.

She's none other than Tony. Stark's personal secretary, as well as his most effective career and life assistants, Pepper, Pep. Posy.

After seeing Pepper, Tony paused for a moment before slowly walking towards her.

At this time, a stretcher cart was pushed from the side, trying to take him to the doctor, Tony pouted and said to Colonel Rod, "Are you kidding?" Get it away. ”

Colonel Rhodes had no choice but to signal the soldiers to pull the stretcher away, and Tony had already walked up to Pepper and said with a smile, "Hmm...... Your eyes are red and you miss your boss who has been missing for a long time, don't you? ”

Xiao Pepper held back her joy and excitement, and replied stiffly: "I'm happy, if you come back, I won't have to look for a job again." ”

Blinking, Tony said, "You're right, the holiday is over...... Wait, I'll let you meet a new friend first. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and beckoned to Han Lie, and Tony introduced the two to each other: "This is Han Lie, my new friend, this is Pep. Potts, my right-hand man. ”

Smiling, he stepped forward, and at the moment of shaking hands with Little Pepper, Han Lie looked her up and down carefully.

In a sense, according to the traditional Oriental aesthetic, Pepper is not very beautiful, first of all, her mouth is too big, secondly, her cheekbones are a little too high, and thirdly, her skin is not very good.

However, the combination of Xiao Pepper's facial features has a unique charm, and her temperament is elegant, and she looks very gentle, and the most important thing is that she has a pretty good figure.

After a casual glance, with experience, Han Lie knew that Xiao Pepper's height was at least one meter seventy-five, and his bust was also okay, which was his favorite type.

However in front of Tony. Stark's face was not too eager, so Han Lie just greeted politely, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Potts, I've been famous for a long time." ”

Facing the stranger they met for the first time, Xiao Pepper was very reserved, and when she touched Han Lie, she replied softly: "Me too, Mr. Han, welcome." ”

Tony. Stark smugly glanced at Han Lie and asked, "How is it?" ”

Han Lie knew that he was asking if he was convinced, so he didn't reply to him, smiled at Xiao Pepper again, and said, "Tony kept mentioning you just now, and it was very praised, it seems that he didn't say big things." ”

Everyone is willing to listen to good words, Pepper sneered, then covered her mouth, and replied, "Yes, in front of me, he would never say that." ”

Hearing this, Tony was immediately dissatisfied, and he exclaimed, "Hey, who said I never mentioned it, didn't I praise you for doing a good job?" ”

Spreading his arms, Little Pepper showed a god-knowing expression and snorted softly: "Maybe, probably, who knows?" ”

Glaring at Han Lie angrily, Tony immediately regained his composure, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Okay, my friend, do you mind going to my house to rest first, I still have something to do, I'll be back later." ”

Seeing this, Han Lie knew that next, Tony. Stark is going to announce his shocking decision.

After experiencing the kidnapping of terrorists, meeting the scientist who helped him escape and eventually die in a cave, and suffering a lot, Tony . Stark's mental state is very unstable.

Before that, he believed that he was selling high-tech weapons to protect American citizens, avoid casualties among American soldiers, and fight evil.

But this time, Tony. Stark suddenly realized that his weapon was being used by terrorists to kill innocent people, so he felt guilty.

Therefore, at a press conference, he will announce the closure of Stark Industries' military division and the idea of never manufacturing weapons again.

In fact, what Tony didn't know was that the weapons produced by Stark Industries, which was sold to terrorists, were actually another senior member of the company. Sting's actions.

Obi. Sting is the company's patriarch and an old friend of Tony's father, but in order to dominate the entire Stark industry, he secretly wants to kill Tony. Stark.

The terrorists who kidnapped Tony and the weapons in their hands were all from this Obi's covert manipulation.

Thinking of this, Han Lie looked back, the wreckage of the original steel suit was not left in the desert as in the original story, but was collected by the U.S. military and was being carried out under Rhodes' command at this time.

Without this thing, would Obi continue to make his Iron Overlord, and finally make a direct attack to assassinate Tony. What about Stark?

Han Lie was quite interested in this, he smiled and asked, "What are you going to do?" Can I come along? ”

Tilting his head, Tony said, "Okay, let's get in the car, Miss Pep, please arrange a press conference for me." ”

Frowning, Pepper asked suspiciously, "Press conference?" You have to go to the hospital first! You ......"

Wave your hand to stop her from continuing, Tony. Stark looked a little tired and ordered, "Don't say anything, do as I am, and besides, get me a cheeseburger." ”

Xiao Pepper froze for a moment, puffed out his mouth and stared at him helplessly, and after a while, he had to sigh and respond: "Okay, I'll listen to you." (To be continued......)
