Chapter Thirty-Seven: Escape
The bald leader who led this group of terrorists is really uneducated, it's really scary, he thinks that with advanced missiles he can be the king and hegemon, it's really simple cute, as a villain, it's normal to have a flawed IQ, otherwise Tony wouldn't have made a steel suit under their noses, escaped smoothly, and ruined his lair by the way.
"Why don't you listen to me?" The bald leader walked up to Tony, who was a little nervous and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"We work hard and are very serious." Seeing that Tony didn't know how to answer, Ethan was very righteous and relieved Tony.
"I let you live, and you repay me like that?" The bald leader couldn't do anything to Tony, so he took his anger on Ethan.
"The weapons are complicated, and he has worked hard." Ethan explained.
"Get on your knees." As soon as the bald leader's words fell, several terrorists immediately stepped forward and pushed Ethan to the ground.
"Do you take me for a fool? Are you telling the truth? ”
"All three of us are working hard."
"Give me my mouth." The bald leader held a piece of red-hot coal in a nearby stove with long tongs.
"What do you want to do with him?" Tony couldn't stand it anymore.
Wei Ran stood aside indifferently and watched, so as not to catch fire. While Tony was building the Ark reactor and mechanical steel armor, Wei Ran had been by his side to help, and these were all watched by the bald leader. He had the impression that Tony would need him as an assistant when he was building the Jericho missile.
Ethan, on the other hand, is an idler, spending most of his time as a spectator by the side, except for some simple preparations. If the bald leader wants to kill chickens and make an example, of course he will choose Ethan, who looks useless, and ignore Wei Ran, who is still a little useful.
"Took me for a fool?" Instead of answering Tony, the bald leader pressed Ethan's head against the metal table used to strike iron.
"What exactly are you doing? Say. The bald leader stretched the coals from his long tongs in front of Ethan.
"He's building Jelliko missiles." Ethan was very stiff and said through gritted teeth.
"What the hell is he building?"
"Crafting Jelliko missiles."
"What are you building?" The bald leader roared.
"Jericho missiles," Ethan also yelled, he was scared and could only use the roar to dispel the fear.
Tony sees the bald leader clearly intent on hurting Ethan. Can't help but take a step forward, "What do you want?" Do you have a deadline for delivery? ”
A group of terrorists in the cave who didn't know English, saw Tony take a step forward, and immediately raised the rifle in his hand to aim at him, Tony had no choice but to raise his hands again and stop.
"I need him, nice assistant."
"My missiles must be assembled tomorrow." The bald leader gave Tony a deep look, threw the long pliers on the ground, and turned to leave with his men.
Seeing that all the terrorists had left and closed the iron door of the cave again, Wei Ran quickly stepped forward and helped Ethan up, "Ethan, you are very brave. ”
"Thank you."
Wei Ran's hands could clearly feel that Ethan's whole body was trembling slightly, and his heart was fleeing very quickly, obviously he was extremely scared just now.
Patting Ethan on the shoulder, Wei Ran turned to Tony and said, "It seems that we are going to speed up the manufacturing." ”
The internal structure of the steel suit has been completed, and the outer metal shell limbs have also been manufactured, but only the torso and head and the internal system of the steel suit have not been completed, and one day is enough.
With Wei Ran's help, the manufacturing progress is much faster than in the original story, but because Tony is wearing a steel suit, he blocks the camera's view with a wooden plank. Disappearing for too long under the surveillance of terrorists, it inevitably aroused the suspicion of the bald chief, and sent someone to check on the situation.
"Okay? Can you move? Ethan asked, and with the help of Wei Ran and Ethan, Tony put on the limbs and torso of the steel suit.
Tony tried, and there was no problem at all.
"Okay, say it again."
"Walk 41 steps forward, when you reach the door, walk 16 steps, take the right fork, 33 steps and turn right." Tony skillfully recited the path that Ethan gave him, the cave chosen by the terrorists was like a spider web, leading in all directions, and Tony had come out of the cave once after waking up, and it was easy to get lost.
The iron door of the cave was slammed, and a terrorist looked into the cave through the small window of the iron gate, trying to find Wei Ran and the others. "Ethan, Ethan, Stark."
"Speak, answer him." Tony urges that the Iron Suit is not fully dressed, and that it would be terrible for the terrorists to find out at this time.
"It's Hungarian, I don't know" Ethan was also a little anxious.
"Then just say a few words."
"Okay, got it."
"Which ones do you know?"
Seeing that Tony and Ethan were like ants on a hot pot, Wei Ran stopped what he was doing and replied in fluent Hungarian to the door: "We are here, working hard." ”
"Hurry up, hurry up." Terrorists outside the door urged.
"Okay, wait." Wei Ran pulled the surprised Ethan, and the two walked out of the hidden place of the plank together.
"Where's Stark?"
"Well, he's, not coming out."
"Hurry up and let him out." The two terrorists didn't see Tony and wouldn't give up.
"Okay, you guys wait a minute." Wei Ran glanced at Ethan, and asked him to go in and hurry up to help Tony finish putting on the steel suit as soon as possible, and try to hold on here for a while. It's a pity that Wei Ran's calculation was wrong, and he overestimated the patience of the two terrorists outside the door. The two guys outside saw that Tony was reluctant to come out, and Ethan had walked in and disappeared, so they had to open the iron gate and go in to check for themselves.
But the bolt of the iron door has long been hung with a bag of ** from Tony's hand, as the bolt was opened, only to hear a "bang" sound, the explosives package exploded, and the two terrorists were instantly shattered.
This time it was a complete leak.
"How?" Tony is fixed in a steel suit and can't see what happens after the explosion.
"Oh my God!" Ethan stuck out his head and looked at it, and immediately exclaimed, he found that the entire hole had been blown open, and the iron gate had disappeared.
"It works well, the dynamite is nicely done, Tony." Wei Ran also praised that Tony's use of a little limited material to create such a powerful explosive bag is really remarkable.
"I'm proud to be admired by aliens." Sensing the hope of escaping, Tony began to joke lightly.
"Now is not the time to relax, Ethan hurry up and finish the work on his hands, and I'll start the power system." Before Wei Ran found the notebook, he quickly turned on the power system.
The powertrain starts slowly, and the progress bar walks slowly.
"Hurry up and get every hex bolt on." Knowing that time was very tight, Tony was also in a hurry.
"They're coming!" Ethan stretched out his head to look at the entrance of the cave and said nervously.
"Don't care if it's good or bad, just get it."
"Here they are." A faint noise came from the entrance to the cave.
"When the power system is buffered, you can go out with me." Tony said.
"It's too late." Ethan looked at the progress bar, and his tone suddenly lost the anxiety and nervousness he had just now, "I'm going to buy you time." ”
"Do what you planned." Tony said anxiously, he could tell that Ethan was trying to use his life to hold off the terrorists as much as possible.
But Ethan had already made up his mind, ignored Tony, ran to the hole and picked up a rifle that had been dropped by the blown terrorists on the ground, and rushed out quickly.
"Do what you planned." Tony yelled anxiously.
"I'll go watch him, and when the power system is fully activated, you can rush out by yourself and leave us alone." After Wei Ran finished speaking, he quickly ran out to chase Ethan.
For Ethan, after getting along these days, Wei Ran admires him very much, because Wei Ran sees a lot of good sides of humanity in Ethan, and he doesn't want Ethan, who is kind, brave, upright, and righteous, to die as tragically as the original plot.
"Hey, wait, you can't do that."
When Wei Ran caught up with Ethan, Ethan happened to meet a group of terrorists who were hurrying over. At the moment when the terrorists fired, Wei Ran quickly saved Ethan with his mental power. Then he wrapped himself in telekinesis and flew out of the cave on a rampage with Ethan.
Wei Ran didn't worry about Tony, because this small delay was enough for the Mark 1 power system to start. Mark One is the silver steel suit that Tony is wearing. The first set of armor made from rudimentary equipment at a terrorist base. Although this armor is like a toy compared to later models, it is enough to give Tony victory over his enemies.
Mark One's abilities: Light armor, able to withstand small arms, but slightly weak against cannons. There are a variety of weapons, including rockets, flamethrowers, and fists (getting hit by a punch is no joke). It does not have the ability to fly long distances, but it can take off for short distances, has the feeling of catapulting the seat, and the armor will be scrapped after flying.
The mech's take-off will automatically turn on when the Ark reactor's energy is running out, preventing Tony from dying in order to prevent the reactor's energy from running out completely.
