Chapter Ninety-Five: Restless Tony, and His Iron Cloak
Restless Tony, and his Iron Cloak
……
Ninety days. ∈ ↗ top novel,
News screens.
Many well-intentioned people are paying attention to the follow-up to the incident that happened yesterday.
Among these people are Nick Fury, the current director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Obaddi Stein of Stark Industries, and Meng Ao.
“…… Yesterday, an F-22 fighter made a mistake during the exercise," Lieutenant Colonel James Rhodes of the military's Air Force Weapons Procurement Department announced solemnly: "Fortunately, the pilot is safe and sound." As for the horrors that took place in the small town of Gumila in the Middle East, we are still uncertain about the situation, but we can guarantee that the United States government was not involved......"
……
Ninety nights.
S.H.I.E.L.D.
"The latest news, Obadi Stein went to the Middle East. Our speculation has already been concluded. Agent Coulson, who had returned from resolving the Bloodline of Covenus incident, whispered in the ear of his chief.
"So Obadi-Stein is on that side too?" Nick Fury has a black face.
"Maybe they got in touch early on and started colluding. They are also members of S.H.I.E.L.D., which makes it a lot of the time for us to speculate about their network. Coulson was helpless. It is impossible for an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. to exist without factions.
To put it harshly, this alliance of anti-natural forces cobbled together by many countries is a faction in one country. But Nick Fury's undisguised "over there" argument today undoubtedly declares that the main bureau of S.H.I.E.L.D., which is dominated by the United States, has an irreconcilable and obvious rift.
The partners of the partners in the alliance can naturally be regarded as your partners.
But when one day the partner is not a partner, the other partner's partner will naturally begin to be suspected.
"Where's Tony?" Nick Fury asked, "I remember asking you to date him." ”
"Just two days ago at a banquet. He also promised to talk to us at the time. Coulson said.
"That's good news." Nick Fury pouted: "There are already Osborne and Hammer military industry over there, Stark should not go into this troubled water." For S.H.I.E.L.D., Stark Industries' technology and Storm's biological and chemical weapons are top priorities. They must, and can only be, in our hands. ”
Coulson nodded, "I'll keep an eye on it." Obadi Stan's ass isn't that clean. ”
"If only you understood." Nick Fury rubbed his temples with his hands and reminded, "It can be used by force, but that's the power that can only be used in the worst case." It would be better to get some important evidence and arrest Obadi Stein directly and imprison him. ”
……
In the early morning of the ninety-first day.
A few kilometers from the small town of Gumila in the Middle East, in the middle of nowhere.
The stronghold of the Ten Rings.
Obadi Stan came and went.
Dropping the phrase "clean up", he swept away the Ten Rings who kidnapped Tony Stark at his behest, and reduced the stronghold to ruins.
Took the wreckage of a steel suit, with the remnants of Tony Stark. The remains of the Iron Suit were painstakingly collected by the leaders of the Ten Rings and were the first generation of Mark armor made by Tony Stark. The remnants are detailed drawings of Tony Stark's manufacture of Mark armor and computer numbers.
……
Ninety-one.
Stark Industrial Building.
"Help me repair and restore the wreckage of this suit as it is, and make the corresponding modifications according to my request! I can't give you much time. Obadi-Stan unfolded the drawings and numbers of the first generation of Mark armor and said to several engineers affiliated with Stark Industries.
The events in the small town of Gumila, as well as Stark's sudden appearance at the banquet the night before the incident, and the sudden questioning, gave Obadistein an inexplicable sense of urgency and crisis.
……
Ninety-seventh.
Storm's Old House.
In the night, a streamer of light pierced the night sky and fell on the lawn of Storm's old house.
A man of red and gold steel, slowly stood up from the ground, his helmet opened, revealing a cynical face.
Tony Stark opened his hand, maintained a hugging posture like changing clothes in the mirror, shrugged his shoulders at Meng Ao who came up to greet him, and said helplessly: "Forgive me man, this thing is not easy to take off without tools." Do you mind if I talk to you in this shell? ”
"No, I don't mind if you talk to me in this shell." Meng Ao stepped forward and hugged Tony, "I don't mind that you made our meeting too ostentatious. ”
"My bad." Tony apologized insincerely. "I just want my friends to share my masterpiece."
"Do you need me to make you a custom set of Mark armor? Don't be shy, be bold and mention it. I will make a perfect work of art according to your request. Tony strode forward, step by step on the grass: "The gift is still exchanged, it is a thank you gift for giving me a coat." ”
"Of course," Tony turned his head and winked at Meng Ao, "Don't expect me to load you with any weapon system, I'm giving you a big toy." ”
Meng Ao grinned and refused, "No, you don't need to!" For me, it is more convenient and effective. ”
"I knew it was going to happen." Tony said expectedly. In his opinion, no matter how low-key and humble Meng Aobiao is, contrary to his arrogance and recklessness, he should be the same kind of person as him in his bones.
"What do you need me to come over for? There are so many means of communication these days. Tony turned, his armor clanging, "You know I've been a little busy lately. ”
"It's true that there are many means of communication nowadays, but the bad thing is that letters, emails, phone calls, text messages, none of them are secure." Meng Ao stared at the messy lawn area that Tony had trampled on, and spread his hands.
Meng Ao really didn't have much confidence that he could be 100% sure that he would communicate electronically with Tony without being caught by some people intercepting the message. Especially on some matters, Meng Ao believes that face-to-face conversations are more sincere and solemn.
With Tony's cynical personality, it's hard to say otherwise, he'll listen to certain things.
Of course, even if it was face-to-face, Meng Ao was not quite sure that Tony would listen to some of what he said.
"Maybe it's time for you to investigate Stark's insides." "After you've been banned from Stark Industries altogether, as well as from the company's affairs," Meng Ao said. You warned me when you came back from 'rafting' that I was in trouble. Now I want to say that to you as well. ”
……
Ninety-seventh, evening.
Stark Industries.
In front of the prototype of the Ark reactor.
“…… You say you can't shrink it? ......" Obadi-Stan glared at the trembling company engineer in front of him.
"At the moment, we can't do it with our technology." The questioned engineer wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied cautiously.
