Chapter 473:
Just as Rocky dragged Pepper to the Chinese restaurant, on the top floor of the Stark Building, in the room belonging to Tony, there was a person who should not have appeared, or even could not appear, and would never appear - Lord Man.
The Manchu man, who should have been doomed in the battle with Rocky, is still alive, with long half-gray hair and long beard, a fierce expression, an aging face but a strong physique, all of which indicate his identity. Why is he still alive? He must be dead, otherwise how would Rocky be able to devour everything about him? Knowing his memories and the exercises he practiced? But it is undoubtedly an indisputable fact that he is alive, after all, he is now standing alive in front of Tony, even more calm and elegant than before, like the ancient aristocracy of a thousand years ago, so leisurely, so elusive. He had a glass of red wine in his hand, which was obviously poured by Tony, so the person who could make Tony pour the wine was at least his ally.
Iron Man has formed an alliance with the Manchurians! This is simply the most ridiculous thing in Marvel history, two mortal enemies, even incompatible existences, have become allies. What prompted them to form an alliance? There's only one answer - Rocky!
"Are you really sure he's not dead? I saw that he had disappeared into the flames, and the power was enough to blow him to pieces, but you said he was still alive? Tony looked surprised, when he learned from the mouth of Lord Manchu that Rocky was still alive, he was so incredible, because the foundation of all his careers at the moment was based on Rocky's death, but now that Rocky may still be alive, then he had to panic, after all, Rocky's strength is obvious to all, if he returns, seeing his foundation being hollowed out by him and others, what kind of expression will he have at that time? What will he do? Almost everyone can imagine his reaction, and it must be very fierce and very fierce to seek revenge on him. So. Can you resist it yourself?
"I'm pretty sure he's still alive, after all, I was in the fire with him, and although the bomb was powerful, it wasn't strong enough to kill it, and he wouldn't have disappeared without a trace if I hadn't blown himself up. But, I'm pretty sure, he's missing, but he must still be alive somewhere, spying on what you people are doing. Then wait for the opportunity to take back all their inheritance. So, do you think you will still be able to withstand his crazy revenge? Lord Man's face was full of ridicule at the moment, looking at Tony, whose expression had become very ugly, and there was a bit of disdain under the banter in his eyes.
If it weren't for Tony's great power now, and he needed to use him a lot, Lord Manchu wouldn't have come to him as his ally. In fact, after the battle with Rocky, he was indeed dead, but the power of technology and occult magic resurrected him, and after the resurrection, he understood one thing deeply. Never fight alone with Rocky, or you'll just make him a wedding dress.
Tony ignored Mandale's taunts, and his mind was now immersed in how to deal with Rocky's sudden appearance. Admittedly he felt fear, and it was funny to say that such an arrogant person would be afraid? The answer is yes. He is Iron Man, although he can do chivalrous deeds. Adored by thousands of people, he is still a human being, and he still has human emotions. Then it is natural to feel fear, and the only person who can make him feel fear is the Rocky who is now unknown.
"Damn, he's really alive! I shouldn't have said yes to those people's invitations! Tony gritted his teeth, it seemed that he did cooperate with some people, but he didn't confide in them in front of the Man.
Lord Man didn't care, he didn't care who Tony cooperated with to be able to devour Rocky's inheritance, he only needed Tony's words, a word of cooperation or not, "Okay, I've already brought the words, so what is your choice now?" Without waiting for Tony to answer, he said in a threatening voice, "I need to warn you before you answer." I'm sure this guy is stronger than ever when he reappears, and you're vulnerable now. If you don't want to die, your best bet is to cooperate with me, so that you can save your life at any moment.
Tony wanted to open his mouth and agree, even if the person in front of him was something he hated so much. But the instinct of survival obviously overpowered the disgust in his heart at this moment, but he was still a little 'dying', "Why should I believe you? Since you've said he's stronger than ever, it means you can't beat him. Even if I join forces with you, I still can't save my life, so what's the point of me cooperating with you? Ask for your help, I might as well go to S.H.I.E.L.D.s! While these guys do make me uncomfortable at times, at least they can help me fend off that guy.
Hearing Tony mention S.H.I.E.L.D., the disdain on Lord Man's face became even stronger, "S.H.I.E.L.D.? I wonder if your IQ has been dulled by Rocky's news! Those guys can be said to be taking care of themselves. Anyone with a little brain can guess that if it weren't for the connivance of these guys, how could Rocky's inheritance be taken away? So, you're an accomplice at best, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is the one that that guy really wants revenge. If you crash headlong into it, I promise you'll die faster! ”
I have to say that Lord Man's words are very reasonable, Tony hesitated instantly, and the psychological balance was tilting towards Lord Man, but the pride in his heart was still at work, and he couldn't really answer this question at the moment.
"I'm in no hurry right now, and I can wait for you to make a choice at any time, but I must warn you that when we run out of time, we will lose a point, because none of us know when that guy will show up. And when he appears, it will be when you and I will suffer the wrath and fall into hell. The Man-sama still took Rocky to pressure Tony, with a look of ambition in his eyes.
Tony gritted his teeth when he heard this, his expression was extremely distorted, "You guy, don't push me anymore, I need a little time!" ”
"Yes, you do need time, because your time is running out, if you want to live, choose ......"
There was no agreement between Tony and Manchu yet, and Rocky had already walked out of the restaurant with Pepper after eating lunch.
Stroking his stomach, Pepper looked very satisfied, "I can't imagine that authentic Chinese food will taste like this, and it is not inferior to those luxurious French meals." Liszt, I have to admit that you brought me to a good place. ”
"Miss Potts, Chinese food has a long history and culture in the world, and the cuisine is even more profound and the cuisine is innumerable. If you're traveling to China, you're in for a treat. Unfortunately, I won't be able to go back anytime soon. ”
Rocky sighed, the pretended lonely appearance made Pepper's heart a little sour, she subconsciously thought that Rocky missed his hometown, after all, his resume said that the other party was just a person. And how painful is it for a person to work hard in the United States, but no one can share any sadness and happiness with him?
Pepper's sympathy overflowed, and he gently patted Rocky on the shoulder, and when he turned his head, he couldn't help but sigh: "If you miss your hometown, why don't you choose to go back?" Stayed here? If you want to go back, I can give you time off. ”
Rocky was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head with a chuckle, "No need, even if I go back, I won't have any relatives." For there, there is no longer any meaning or possibility of going back, so I might as well stay here and work hard for my career. ”
Hearing Rocky so bluntly explain his current predicament, Pepper was stunned, and then said in surprise: "You are so good, don't you have a girlfriend?" Feel free to come to me if you need it, and I can introduce you to one. ”
When Pepper said that he needed to find him, Rocky still had a little joy in his heart, thinking that his plan had progressed, but when she said that she wanted to introduce one to Rocky, he was secretly helpless, the revolution had not yet succeeded, and comrades still needed to work hard.
"Thanks, Miss Potts, I'm pretty used to being alone now, so I don't want anyone to discipline me." I didn't want to reject this great news for others, there is no shortage of women around Rocky, and his goal is very clear, so refusal is the best choice. It's a pity that Pepper doesn't know that Rocky has bad intentions towards her, and if she falls into the trap that Rocky has carefully woven for her later, she doesn't know if she will loudly mock the other party for taking great pains.
Pepper couldn't help but shake her head regretfully when she heard Rocky reject her kindness, originally she had planned to introduce Natalie to Rocky, she subconsciously felt that the two were very compatible, although she didn't ask for the consent of the two people.
If Pepper's thoughts were found out to Rocky and Natasha, they wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh. It is foreseeable that before they don't know each other's identities, they are mutually exclusive, and after knowing each other's identities, they are absolutely unable to laugh or cry.
After that, the two gossip along the way, and Rocky also sends Pepper back to his home, and the day is not in vain, at least he can feel that Pepper is not rejecting him as a person, so it proves that he still has a chance to succeed.
It's just that this opportunity seems to be difficult. (To be continued.) )
