As the old saying goes, the early bird gets the worm, but as the old saying goes, the gun shoots the first bird.

Tony rubbed his face and said with a look of lovelessness: "I've underestimated the bottom line of these damn politicians enough, I didn't expect them to be so shameless."

A hearing that is nothing can actually decide whether my Warframe technology is going or going, and it is mine, privately developed technology! ”

Landau lay on the recliner, his eyes didn't bother to open, and he didn't care: "They didn't arrest you for endangering national security, and then confiscate all your property, you should be grateful to Dade." ”

"Politicians, not all of them are the same."

"Oh, I overlooked one thing, the idiots of the Ministry of Defense got your Warframe technology, maybe it could start World War III."

"A weapon is a weapon because it has to be mastered." Tony laughed and sneered, "It's funny that they can't even figure out what a weapon is, and they are secretly planning this plan and that plan." ”

"The big man who escaped is proof of the stupidity of the military."

Landau changed to a more comfortable position, this kind of thing Tony can solve alone, not to mention that Obadiah is still there, and can involve a large number of people not to participate in this matter.

The pressure Tony has to face is actually not as great as advertised.

But the military isn't all stupid, at least they know how to send Tony's few friends.

Colonel Rod, who came with the mission, persuaded: "Tony, the military is not all fools, they don't want your skills, they just want you to sell your armor." ”

Tony glanced at Rhodes, threw the notification file on the table, smiled contemptuously, and said, "Let them buy Hammer's armor." Isn't Justin Hammer heavily promoting his armor?"

"By the way, I heard that he seems to have prostituted the results of the scientist father and son for nothing, don't you care about it?"

"Tony, I'm a soldier and don't care about these things." Rod shook his head helplessly and explained, "If Hammer Industries' armor could have one-tenth of you, I wouldn't be standing in front of you today. ”

"They're ready, just waiting for your lion to open his mouth."

Landau opened his eyes, sat up in surprise and looked at Tony and Rod to the side, and interjected, "Did I just hear something wrong?" The military is actually planning to pay a lot of money for Tony's armor? ”

"Yes, you heard it right, Dr. Landau. The military doesn't really need Tony's technology, but just wants Tony to restart the weapons manufacturing department and produce and sell the armor. ”

Landau was not surprised that Rhodes could recognize himself, after all, he was also a colonel in the United States, and he still had the right to know.

Landau walked to the table and picked up the notification document, glanced at it casually, raised his eyebrows at Tony, and teased: "It seems that your act of burning your abomination into a dry corpse has shocked many people." ”

Tony put his hands behind his head and his legs on the table, and sneered, "It also attracted a lot of jackals and vultures." ”

Tony tilted his head to look at Rhodes and reminded, "First, I have ordered the closure of the weapons manufacturing department and no longer sell weapons. Second, Stark Industries is now privately owned, and I don't need to be accountable or report to any of my shareholders. ”

"The most important thing is that I haven't broken any laws and I'm not evading taxes."

"I, Tony Stark, do what I say!"

Rod, as Tony's old friend, knows Tony's current state very well, and he opened his mouth to speak but didn't dare to say it, watching Tony, who closed his eyes and recuperate, turned around and left.

Standing in front of Tony's elevator, he looked back at Tony on the sofa and said loudly, "Tony, the military will not let you fly around above the United States." ”

"Uh-huh."

Tony pulled out his right hand and waved it, not taking Rod's warning to heart at all, "You're right, but the law doesn't restrict citizens' ability to travel freely, it's just that I can fly, and the military's big fools won't." ”

Landau sat on the couch and watched Rod leave, knowing in his heart that Tony would eventually compromise.

The first thing he taught Tony was to learn to compromise, and according to his original fate, Tony himself would compromise.

Rhodes would get a piece of armor and become a war machine, representing the military.

But until Tony himself changes his mind, or Rhodes finds the right way to communicate, Landau thinks it's still quite a long way off.

"What are you going to do? Going to this hearing as a big injustice? ”

Landau put the document in his hand on the table in front of him and instructed Tony, "Don't put your feet on the table, it will appear that your Uncle Landau has not taught you." ”

"Hmph, don't take advantage of this, old shareholder."

Tony pulled out his hands behind his head, stood up, looked out the window, and said lightly: "S.H.I.E.L.D. should do something, so I won't attend the hearing and be interrogated like a clown." ”

Landaumo rubbed his chin and grinned at Tony, "Don't talk so much." ”

"I, Tony Stark, jumped from here today, and I'm not going to attend any hearings!"

Watching Tony dial Fury's phone, Landau pillowed his hands, his legs up and down, resting on the table, enjoying the show.

The unstoppable Tony undoubtedly hit a soft nail in front of Fury, hung up the phone with a tangled face, opened the portal on the spot and walked in.

Landau graciously didn't make fun of Tony, just quietly watched the news as a spaceship was about to launch.

Victor von Doom, who was not yet masked on television, was boasting about his wise decisions and proclaiming that he was about to bring prosperity to his hometown.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.

The screen is still a billionaire being interviewed, and it is still Landau leaning on the couch to watch the news.

"Mr. Stark, what is your opinion on participating in the hearing?"

Tony politely faced the camera and smiled: "I am grateful to the Ministry of Defense for caring about the safety of every citizen, and I am also very relieved that our country is always so sensitive to the unexpected..."

After a set of formulaic speeches, Landau couldn't help but frown, unable to understand what kind of ecstasy soup S.H.I.E.L.D. poured into Tony.

A portal with sparks appears, and Tony, who was supposed to be interviewed, walks out of it.

His eyes wandered between Tony walking out and Tony on TV, and Landau asked hesitantly at Tony, "How did you do that?" ”

"What?"

Tony waved his hand to close the portal and take off his coat before seeing himself on the screen.

"Wang Defa, this is what the one-eyed dragon and I promised, and we will definitely settle the matter of the hearing properly, so I don't have to worry!"

"I found someone to pretend to be me, he's playing with fire!"

Tony on TV did not put on Hammer Industries' footage, nor did he coerce public opinion into attacking the courtroom, and completed the hearing very cooperatively, and everything ended logically.

"He's tarnishing my reputation!" Tony immediately began casting a spell and prepared to open the portal.

Landau got up to stop the furious Tony and persuaded, "Don't worry, Tony, you teleport over now, no matter who you find, you can't change the situation." Instead, it will cause riots, don't you want to know who is impersonating you? ”

Tony and Landau looked at each other, reflexively walked to the bar, and said loudly, "Say, let me see what's hidden behind this!" ”

"But no matter what, I've already written down this account!"

Tony poured two glasses of rum, handed one to Landau, and sat next to Landau to listen.

"The Skrulls are an alien race with a highly developed technological civilization, and they developed earlier than humans, so they entered the transcendent era earlier."

"They can change their appearance at will, disguise themselves as another person, and their memories can be copied together; The Super Skrulls can even replicate the abilities of the impersonators, and you can also call them 'Copycats'. ”

"The Skrulls had already invaded once a thousand years ago, causing violent social upheaval and leading to the wrath of the gods. In order to preserve their own religion, the gods of the earth waged a divine war against the gods of Skrulls. ”

Landau took a sip of the rum in his hand and didn't go any further.

Tony clasped his glasses together and frowned, "History is a wheel, constantly rolling back. If you can impersonate me today, then you can impersonate Nick Fury himself tomorrow. ”

Landau thought in his heart, no, you're wrong, you haven't seen the real Nick Fury.

Something that is not conducive to unity, Landau decided that it is better not to say it.

"The good news is that the Skrulls' home planet was blown up back then, and because of their previous actions, no civilization is willing to take them in."

"So, humans are acting as a wrongdoer?" Tony clenched the cup in his hand, and a creaking sound came from his hand, "And I, the unlucky guy who had my identity and memories stolen?" ”

"Nick Fury is really getting the most out of it!"

Seeing that Tony's face was full of the words "I'm in a bad mood", Landau chose to divert the topic and asked where Tony was.

"It's nothing, I went to see an extraterrestrial hammer, and then something happened."

Tony let go of his hand, and the wine glass shattered into shards of glass and fell to the ground, and with a wave of his hand, the blue flames melted directly into the shards.

"Uh-huh."

Landau nodded slightly, gave Tony a thumbs up and said, "It seems that you didn't run in vain, but you still gained something." ”

"When I was playing with a hammer there, I met an old man with a white beard who taught me how to control my abilities."

"You saw Odin and lifted Mjolnir?"

Landau was a little surprised that Tony was able to lift Mjörnier, and when he thought about it, it was normal, after all, he was now the wrath of God, and he upheld the best side of humanity.

Tony nodded, and said flatly: "It turns out that the ordinary old man is Odin, he didn't tell me his name, just told me to put the hammer back and not interfere with his son's experience." ”

"I put the hammer back in place, and then I came back and saw such a terrible thing."
