Chapter 165: "Pepper, aren't you a little... Fat? ”

Stark Industrial Building.

Tony Stark's personal lab.

After several days of intense work, Tony rubbed his reddened eyes and poured himself a glass of red wine.

Ever since he had seen the power of Hiss that day, all the insecurities in his heart had come flooding up.

He needs to make stronger armor to protect himself, and even not only himself but also Pepper, Ania and many more people he knows.

For this reason, he pushed off a lot of schedules, stayed awake, and plunged headlong into the laboratory.

As the saying goes, where there is pressure, there is motivation, and in just one week, Tony made the Mark7 armor.

It differs from any previous version of the armor and is a heavy armor designed specifically for combat.

Its deployment is based on the Mark5 suitcase armor, but it does not require any external mechanical assistance to complete the deployment.

When not in use, the mark7 armor folds into a trunk-like red flight capsule.

When Tony commands Jarvis to activate it, it flies automatically, then confirms the user's identity by scanning the encrypted information on the metal bracelet he is wearing, and activates the armor deployment program, starting from the metal bracelet and covering the entire body.

As the first heavy armor, both defense and firepower deployment have risen a notch, but this set of armor still does not satisfy Tony.

Because Tony knew that with the performance of this armor, he would not be able to fight against an enemy like the Hiss!

Wow.

"Tony, you've been here for a week, and your business partners and shareholders are worried about your health......"

Holding her daughter Ania in her arms, Pepper knocked on the door and walked in from the outside.

"But I know... You can't listen to that, do you? ”

"Don't bother with them, I know what I'm doing!"

Leaning back in his chair, Tony rubbed his temples with his hands, trying to ease his tired nerves.

"Tony, I understand your worries......"

As his pillow person, Pepper didn't know what he was thinking, so she tried not to disturb him for a while, but now looking at Tony's bloodless face, Pepper couldn't help but step forward and hold his hand and persuade.

"Don't stretch yourself too hard, you need to rest, okay?"

After a pause, Tony shook his head.

"It's okay, Jarvis is monitoring my physical condition every day and I know what I'm like right now."

He instinctively made an excuse, but it was debunked by Jarvis in the next second.

"Mr. Stark, after my scanning, your mental state and body have reached an extremely dangerous level, and I strongly advise you to rest right now."

"Jarvis!?"

"Sir, the last time you had a check-up was three days ago."

Hearing Jarvis's words, Pepper immediately grabbed Tony's hand and pulled him up from the chair, then forcefully led him to a couch in the lab.

"Listen, Tony, you have to sleep now!"

Leaning down on the couch, Tony tried to stand up, but met Aniah's innocent eyes, which seemed to reveal a sense of concern.

"Ania ......"

At that moment, his movements stopped, and his heart was filled with softness.

Maybe... I really need to take a good rest.

Thinking so, Tony slowly closed his eyes, and the intense tiredness was instantly released, and he fell into a deep sleep in just a moment.

"Tony, get some sleep......"

Gently stroking his face, Pepper gently covered him with a blanket, and she instructed Jarvis to keep the temperature in the room at a suitable temperature before turning around and carrying Ania outside.

When she returned to her office, she found a mysterious gift box quietly placed on her desk.

She asked the secretary, but no one knew when or by whom it had been delivered.

With a bad premonition in his heart, Pepper frowned and carefully opened the gift box, only to find that there was an octagonal ... Stones?

……

On the road outside the Stark Industrial Building, a small white car is quietly parked here.

Sitting in the passenger seat, with red hair and a white suit lined with pink, Ah Fen held the instrument to detect the charm and sensed the top of the building.

"Alas... Do you think the old dragon is reliable? Can this thing really find spells? ”

"I don't know, the cow charm we found in a park in Los Angeles last time didn't use this."

In the main driver's seat, Lasu touched the bandage on his nose with a humble face, his body was too big, just moved slightly, and the car vibrated with a while.

An unknown pedestrian looked at the sedan strangely, shook his head and sighed and walked away.

"Young people nowadays are really good at playing......

Zhou in the back seat was a little confused, so he pushed his yellow glasses and called Hua Long.

"Boss, according to the instruments that detect the charm, we found the Stark Industries building......"

"Oh, the spell is with Tony Stark?"

On the other end of the phone, dressed in a straight green suit, Walong's expression was a little surprised.

"Yes, Boss, Iron Man is not easy to deal with now, we need the support of the Black Shadow Corps."

Looking out the window carefully, Zhou Ke didn't think that he could deal with Iron Man with his three.

"I know, I'll let the Black Shadow Legion support you, and by the way, let the Black Tiger Ah Fu go over......"

After a pause, Varon's voice suddenly became stern.

"I only have one request, be sure to bring me the charm!"

"Yes!"

……

Inside Pepper Bochere's office.

"Miss Bothis, this is supposed to be one of the 12 Tiger Charms, Mr. Stark has encountered this kind of thing, they have very magical powers......"

Jarvis projected a few photos to dispel Pepper's doubts.

"But I don't understand, why is it here?"

Flipping through the Tiger Charm in his hand, Pepper really didn't see anything unusual.

"I'm sorry, Miss Boj."

Bringing up the surveillance footage, the box suddenly appeared on the desk, this kind of maneuver is very similar to Loki's method.

Loki?

Could it really be him? What did he give me this thing for?

"Put down the spell in your hand!"

The sudden sound startled Pepper Pepper, and she raised her face vigilantly to find three people emerging from the shadows in the corner of the room.

"Give it to me obediently, I've always been a gentleman, and I don't want to be rude!"

Ah Fen took Lasu and Zhou, arrogantly walked in a figure-eight step, and walked out of the shadows as he spoke.

"You... Want this? ”

The charm in his hand dangled in front of the three of them, and Pepper believed that Jarvis had informed Tony, and the only thing she was glad about now was that she didn't have Ania with her.

"Yes, ma'am, for your safety, please leave it to me!"

Flicking his red hair, Ah Fen raised his hand to straighten his clothes, smiling like a charming gentleman.

"Hey, Lasu, why didn't I find Ah Fen so good!"

Pushing his yellow glasses, Zhou's words were sour.

"yes, he's too pretending......"

The tall Rasu nodded in agreement.

"Hey, you two, that's enough!"

Ah Fen in front of him was full of black lines when he heard it, and he wanted to kick the two of them out on the spot, what was this for? Didn't see me pretending... Oh no, negotiate with a pretty lady?

[Sentiment from Pepper Bohere +1433]

"You are... The men of the Mafia? ”

The guys were very good-looking, and Pepper still made a note of some of Tony's enemies.

At this time, Zhou felt that something was wrong, and the woman's expression was too calm, as if she had no fear.

"Isn't she stalling?"

"Procrastination for what?"

"Stupid, it must be Iron Man, that guy who dances mechanically!"

Cursed loudly, Ah Fen immediately stepped forward and was about to snatch the charm from Pepper's hand.

Raising his hand to smash the folder in Fen's face, Pepper was held to her temple with a pistol as soon as she got up from her chair, and then Rasu stepped forward and snatched the Tiger Charm from her hand.

"Alright, mission accomplished, let's go......"

Whoop -

The window glass of the office exploded in an instant, and Lasu only felt a pain in his wrist first, and then a light palm in his hand.

"Shhh......h

He exhaled in pain, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a gold-and-red painted iron man flying in the air.

Tony was wearing the latest Mark7 armor, holding a charm in his left hand and Pepper's waist in his right hand, the sun outside the window shining on his body, like a steel god from the heavenly realm.

Now, the "god" has spoken.

"Pepper, aren't you a little... Fat? ”
