"Don't you think it's similar to the technique Luke used in the Battle of Zetari?" Tony Stark had to get straight to the point.

"You mean, Luke's programmable materials technology?" Dr. Banner immediately understood what Tony was trying to say, and realized the look of shame on his face. He had communicated with Luke about that technique, and Luke was very generous in not hiding anything from him, and answered all questions.

Although Dr. Banner was very sober and did not touch on the real core points of technology, just those questions and answers at that time were enough for Dr. Banner to deeply understand what kind of technology it was and grasp some of the technical principles.

"Programmable materials technology? The name is very vivid. Tony straightened up, grabbed a high-compression bar, and nibbled on it. He has just awakened successfully, and his body still needs a little energy to replenish now.

"You're two different technologies." Dr. Banner advised, "Luke's material programming and construction techniques, and you, while it may seem like you're similar to his in terms of performance, you're technically more inclined to awakened superpowers.

Luke's programming techniques can be copied on other people, but you, until we have more experimental results, we can't be sure if they can be copied. After all, the core of our technology is AIM's mechanical virus, as well as the integration and improvement of the Desperate Virus. Just like the mechanical virus infectees in the metropolis, their abilities are all strange and different. ”

"Don't compare me to the losers, it frustrates me." Tony muttered sullenly. However, he only has a little psychological disorder, and he is still very satisfied with the ability he has mastered. This ability may not be of much use to a fool, but it is a little scary to put it on a genius inventor like him.

"After all, compared to them, you should be considered a perfect and controllable evolutionary." Dr. Banner smiled implicitly, "How are you feeling right now?" Is there anything I mean that needs to be explained? ”

"My body? It feels a bit hollowed out. However, it only needs to replenish energy to recover. There are no cases where people infected with mechanical viruses have a short lifespan, or where their ability is beyond control and their own life is squeezed. I had just asked Jarvis to do a medical check-up for me when I was inside the new Mark suit and everything was fine. Tony replied.

"Do you need to inform Nick about them?" Dr. Banner walked with Tony in the direction of the elevator. "Also, what are you going to give this potion a name?"

"Formula Stark?" Tony looked at Dr. Banner's frozen face and laughed out loud in triumph. "Mark Flask, or Mechanical Flask, I can do it. Compared to the military's so-called superhuman potions, mechanical potions are more inclined to combine the human body and technology. It has to be said that the role played by mechanical viruses in this is very significant. That Dr. Aldridge had wasted the potential of this virus.

Notify Nick? Inform them, of course! We can have a cocktail party. Well, just invite the people Luke invited in the first place! Especially that Norman Osborne, I will make him understand that his reproduction technology is not worth mentioning compared to our technical achievements. ”

"It's good if you're happy." Dr. Banner looked helpless at Tony, who was suddenly in high spirits.

"The next step is to reduce the cost of it and then go into targeted mass production! This is both an antidote and an evolutionary medicine for those infected with mechanical viruses! The effect of the next generation of mass-produced potions should be able to cover and perfect the mechanical viruses in their bodies, so that those people can get rid of the dilemma of drinking [medicine] to barely survive. We've helped the world solve hundreds of thousands of potentially big problems! Tony is already planning for the future.

Think about it, if Luke also comes over, he can still tease the other party. After all, the other party's troubles that were difficult to solve now appeared in his hands.

……

The S.H.I.E.L.D. Quint plane slowly landed on the tarmac of Stark Tower, the hatch opened, and Nick walked down the steps paved with his hands. There are two conspicuous deviants in the crowd, some of their limbs showing metalization.

"Is it possible to mass-produce the potion?"

Nick looked at Tony Stark and Dr. Banner, who were wearing sunglasses and standing straight waiting for him, with a smile on his face, and took the initiative to come to each other's side and ask anxiously.

This is the second time I've come to see Tony. The last time was at a Stark cocktail party half a month ago. At that time, Tony sent out invitations to many people, inviting them to come and relax and exchange their research results.

Although not all the people who received the invitation came happily, with Stark's connections and limelight, there were still many people who responded to him. Norman Osborne was among them. Undoubtedly, as the first giant company to come up with technical products, Norman attracted the attention of many people at the party as soon as it appeared. There were even many people who came up to learn from him.

At that moment, the Norman scenery was infinite and was the focus of the audience.

Until the shock of Tony Stark, the organizer of the reception, appeared.

At that time, the lights in the reception hall suddenly went out, and the glowing grains of light, like fireflies, surged from the darkness to the high platform of the reception from all around the darkness.

The light under the subtle convergence reflected Tony who slowly walked up to the high platform. He was like a light-absorbing body, absorbing the points of light that were surging around him, and finally when he walked to the podium on the high platform, his whole body was wrapped in a glowing mark suit!

Then the lights turned on, and Stark's visor suddenly turned into a ball of light, floating diagonally and disappearing into the air, and the glowing point of light on his body also became a set of red and gold, metal Mark suits in front of everyone under the lights.

As soon as he appeared, Tony snatched the attention of the audience back from Norman, and when he announced his latest technical achievements and future technical vision, everyone on the field was stunned and silent.

Nick, who was also on the field at the time, could have one eye that could simply shine brightly. He was worried about the lack of manpower for the overall combat effectiveness on this side of the earth, so Stark came up with a technology that could solve the problem in a timely manner. It just made his heart flutter.

If the achievements of Osborne Industry are a prelude, then the technology that Stark has taken out can be regarded as a masterpiece. Especially in the second half of the reception, after seeing Nick from S.H.I.E.L.D. coming up and muttering something to Tony, everyone on the field couldn't help but have a strong sense of urgency in their hearts!

There is no doubt that after Osborne Industries, Stark Industries has also scrambled for a piece of the pie, and it looks like it's bigger and bigger. This means that the resources in the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be reduced again, and it also means that if they can't produce real results, they will be able to allocate less share of the cake in the future, or even be eliminated from the competition.

Shame to fall behind, this is unacceptable to everyone on the field!

The conversation with Stark that time went well, although the other party still maintained his arrogance and poisonous tongue, he was very cooperative in many places and did not refuse Nick's request. Correspondingly, Nick also met Stark's request for additional resources.

"I can do it myself for small-scale mass production, but for large-scale mass production, I still need to borrow a manufacturing plant in the data dimension. But this costs new currency. Tony took off the mirror and shook Nick's hand perfunctorily, his gaze falling on the two mutants behind him.

"The two of them are the experimenters of this time, the Nurman brothers. Voluntary, of course. Nick turned and gave Tony a briefing.

"How's their doing?" Tony glanced at the two of them, then turned and walked with Nick towards the interior of Stark Tower.

"What do you mean?" Nick frowned slightly.

Tony's finger gestured in the air: "It's about R&D technology." For example, what technique is he good at? In which field of science have you made a difference? What are the results? How's the brain? I remember asking for it. ”

"You didn't tell me about it." Nick thought about it seriously and said affirmatively: "You just said that if the experimenter is a person, it is best to be a professional in the early stage." ”

"Professionals."

"Elite Agent." Nick shook his head in the direction of the two brothers, he looked at Tony and asked, "Of course, I can make a temporary substitution if necessary." ”

"It's not necessary, maybe the demo will be a little worse, but I'll fix it." Tony shook his head.

The group took the elevator to his lab under Tony's lead, and after tying the two to a chair, Tony instilled some experience in them and explained some of the situation, then stepped aside and let Jarvis start the process of injecting the potion.

"According to what you told me before, after this potion is injected, it will awaken a strange ability to control metal, right?" As he looked at the two people in the lab chair receiving the injections, Nick whispered confirmation to Tony.

"Manufacturing capacity, to be exact!" Tony corrected Nick's words: "It allows you to eliminate some of the technical products that can only be made by instruments, and makes you an all-round manufacturing factory by yourself." If it is only understood as a simple control of metals, this understanding is too shallow. Of course, the extent to which this ability can be brought into full play depends on the individual's ingenuity and technical knowledge.

Ordinary people may only be able to make substandard cold weapons or firearms, but people who have all kinds of tools and technical drawings for weapon production in their minds can use the materials around them to make finished products. They are masters at making machinery! This may become a new profession in the future. ”

"Mechanic?" The name flashed through Nick's head inexplicably.

"Call it whatever you want." Tony adjusted and controlled the experimental injection process according to the real-time monitoring data of the two people's bodies, while talking to Nick perfunctorily. Dr. Banner sat on a couch not far away, silent, his hands on his cheeks and the silent appearance of a thinker.

"That is, if you want to make the most of this profession, you must first make him a learned person?" Nick's eyes widened, this was a little difficult for him, although S.H.I.E.L.D. was able to recruit all kinds of smart people to serve them, but ...... letting them go to war, he looked at Stark next to him, and then at Dr. Banner sitting on the other side, and then thought about Luke, Otto, Killian and a bunch of other messy people, Nick suddenly felt that this didn't seem impossible?

"That's not necessary, we can encapsulate the technology and upload it to the data dimension, and then if you want to learn and master the technology, you can download it from the data dimension. If you are confident in your brain, you can learn technology, and if you are not confident in your brain, then you can download the finished drawing. It has to be said that the birth of the data dimension has expanded the prospects of this profession. Tony shook his head. But in the future, in this new profession, those with high status, greater potential, and can go further are destined to be those who have mastered cutting-edge technology!

Of course, those giants who now have their own unique technology and can connect the data dimension, even ordinary researchers, can become technology providers.
