Tony Stark felt like he was dreaming that he was nothing more than attending a field arms demonstration at Baghlan Air Base in Afghanistan.

He rejected the convoy that Rhodes had arranged for him and followed the vanguard to prepare to return to the airbase.

Tony was then attacked, watching as the GI in his car was blown off in the head, and then he himself was attacked with Stark Industries' weapons.

This was followed by a bewildered staccato fainting, as he saw panicked attackers and an overwhelming pile of rubble.

The most incredible thing about Tony Stark is that he actually saw his father!

Howard Stark was looking at him with a sad face, letting a hooded man beside him protect his 'soul'?

Howard then used certain means to extract countless tiny pieces of shrapnel and stone chips from Tony's body.

In the end, he was poured a red potion, and the dream ended......

In the blink of an eye, Tony Stark woke up again, shaking his somewhat drowsy head to see where he was.

Coffin?!

Tony panicked and found himself confined to a steel space, with only the flattened mattress beneath him giving him some warm comfort.

The airlock sounded, the entire space moved, and the image in front of Tony began to change. He also felt a little different.

'Is this weightlessness?' ’

Tony struggled with his body, and the restraint straps held him firmly to the bed. A bright light from the outside world revealed that he was in a large steel facility.

At the same time, a voice sounded, answering some of Tony's doubts as he had just woken up.

"You have been frozen for five years, nine months and twenty-two days, and it is normal for you to feel hungry and weak. If you feel like it, please use the vomit bag that you have written nearby. Don't just throw up, it will contaminate the whole cabin. ”

There are people constantly going back and forth around them, moving freely with the help of a gravity-free environment.

After Tony saw it clearly, he began to struggle to untie his body.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

A mechanical, warm voice rang out next to Tony, a robot with a dark blue livery and a horizontal barrel head with integrated sighting equipment watching Tony and untying him from his shackles.

"Uh, thank you?"

In an unfamiliar environment, Tony still felt that he should be a little polite.

"You're welcome, brother."

The robot happily responds to Tony, holding out its hand as if preparing to give Tony a high-five.

However, Tony looked away, grabbed the railing next to the bed to float himself, and asked, "Where is this?" ”

"ISV Adventure Star spacecraft."

"Uh, I'm asking what planet we're ......"

"The Alpha Centauri system, then named Pandora, is the planet behind you from the observation window. Pandora is one of its fourteen moons. ”

Tony's face suddenly felt a little wrong, the Alpha Centauri galaxy is four .4 light-years away from the earth, if he just heard it right, it took five years and nine months of flight to reach this planet, then the general flight speed of this spacecraft can reach 0.7 times the speed of light.

Tony Stark's own world has absolutely no such technology, at least not in his understanding.

"Who does this spaceship belong to?"

"The RDA, the RDA is working with the worlds of the Temporal and Space Authority to develop the resources on this planet."

It was a name and organization that he didn't understand, and Tony could only play haha, relying on the observation window to look at everything unfamiliar with with the help of reflection.

"Hey! Guy over there, hold on, the spacecraft is about to dock into the delta-v orbit of Pandora. ”

A guy who was clearly a military man yelled at Tony that the orbit change was about to happen, and that it could cause impact damage in the gravityless environment of space.

Tony hurriedly grabbed it, looked at the obviously unusual composition of personnel on the other side, and asked the robot on the side, "Who are they?" ”

"Security Operations Force under the RDA."

'Security forces? Is this planet in danger? ’

Tony's mind speculated that since the armed forces were to be used, they would have to use force, and there would only be one possibility on a resource planet.

Contact of the third kind!

And the humans who come are aliens!

Tony didn't ask for any more information afterwards, and too much questioning would make people feel confused and wary.

Although he doesn't know his current identity, Tony has some suspicions that he has experienced a time travel.

Yes, time travel, Tony Stark also knows this theory, and of course in his scientific head, time travel is actually a kind of quantum tunnel shuttle.

The best proof is his own body, Tony clearly remembers that he was attacked in Afghanistan before, and there was a lot of shrapnel embedded in his chest and heart. and his waist, which is tired from singing every night, is not sore or painful at the moment.

As for Howard's appearance, Tony only felt that it was his hope when he was dying, after all, he had always longed for his father's recognition and love. Before he died, he could feel a little unnecessary father's love, which can be regarded as the fulfillment of his wish.

By connecting the bridge, Tony stepped onto the docked shuttle, which gave him a chance to get a glimpse of the ship.

'The solar sail that captures photons, the heat sink should correspond to the engine, the spherical fuel tank, the airport, the life support system, the cryogenic sleep system, ......

Tony has been thinking silently in his mind, matching the knowledge in his mind that he thinks is backward with reality.

'The technical conditions do not support it, and the construction can theoretically be completed. ’

After thinking about it, Tony looked at the robot that was following him closely and said, "I've been sleeping for too long, what year is it?" ”

A puzzled expression appeared on the display on the robot's chest, and he asked, "Are you sleeping stupid?" You've only been on this ship for less than twelve hours! It's the year 2154 in this world. ”

Tony's whole body was not good, and the cold sweat behind his back soaked his clothes. The robot's words shattered the reality he had guessed.

"But, didn't you just say that sleep has gone through five years?"

"What does it have to do with you that they sleep for five years and nine months?"

Tony was only more puzzled by the robot's answer, the existing technology had proven the truth, but in the robot's mouth, it was completely different.

"You're going to get to work!"

The robot nudges Tony, causing him to face the oncoming man.

"I'm Parker Severidge, the general director of RDA in Pandora. What about your inspection of this ship? ”

Tony was stunned for a moment, then put on a frivolous and proud look, and said, "The solar sail can be changed, and changing the shape can enhance the photon capture ability." The heat dissipation system array is flawed, it is estimated that the experiment was done on the ground, and they did not take into account the cold ...... of the space environment enough"

Although he only glanced at it a few times, Tony, who had enough theoretical knowledge, said that the head was the Tao.

The more Parker Sefriridge listened, the more excited he became, and said, "This is only the equipment of thirty years ago, and now our world is collecting ore and preparing to purchase the equipment and materials related to the starship from the Space-Time Authority. I hope you can ...... too."

"Beep......

A warning sound came from the robot next to him, and Parker Severidge immediately shut his mouth.

"I'm sorry, it's me who didn't do it. This is a pass card for the entire Pandora base, and you can move freely. I have other things to arrange, and I'm out of company for the time being. ”

Parker Seyfriech glanced at the robot next to him and turned away.

With the passcard in hand, Tony felt that his identity was somewhat special, and the person in charge of the forward base personally arrived in space just to meet him. And the purchase of information just mentioned should be his main purpose.

Tony looked at the robot next to him, as if warning the man to have a relationship with him?

"List the main tasks!"

Since he has a special identity, he must have come to perform a mission, and he hasn't seen other robots until now, which means that robots are also special, maybe this is a breakthrough.

The robot reached out and patted its chest, and task commands appeared on the display.

[Determine the level of science and technology in the world to avoid serious consequences caused by the export of science and technology.] 】

[Study the performance of Pandora superconducting ore and present the report to the Technology Development Bureau]

[Repair equipment for ***, participate in ****]

Tony rubbed his chin and reached out his fingers to brush his mustache.

The first two items are very easy to judge, and they should be members of the Temporal and Space Authority, coming to study the situation in the world and avoid the export of science and technology from affecting the development of the world.

This also corresponds to the twelve-hour time point that the robot said before, and he was not a person from this world.

And the third hidden mission is the focus of Tony's concern, who is repairing the equipment for? What to get involved in?

Sitting on the spaceship, Tony watched the people coming and going, keeping his quickest thoughts.

However, it is useless, there are too few situations to analyze anything useful.

It wasn't until the other people in the cabin began to put on masks with breathing valves that Tony began to panic.

"What's going on?"

The robot on the side replied: "Pandora's nitrogen and oxygen atmosphere is denser than that of the earth, the carbon dioxide content is more than 18%, the volcanic geological activity is frequent, and the hydrogen sulfide content reaches the lethal amount of humans." Humans breathe in Pandora's atmosphere, and within twenty seconds they will go into shock and die in four minutes. ”

Tony began rummaging around his seat, trying to get a breathing mask.

"You don't need that kind of thing, brother."

The robot gently flicked Tony's collar, and a bubble of air that clinged to his body extended up from his neck and enveloped Tony's head.

Tony reached out and touched the bubbles, his fingers easily passing through them, and he breathed without any discomfort.

"Bubble head spell, a very good spell, but unfortunately I'm a robot, I can't learn ......"

"Uh, it's okay you're great, and besides, thank you."

Tony comforts his only partner at this stage, which may be his reliance on a strange planet.

The comforted robot then changed its attitude and said, "It's okay, brother. ”

Tony was in the mood to ask, "Why do you call me brother?" ”

"I'm Anthony, you're Tony, and you're the brother that Marvin Robot admitted! Brother, come and give a high-five! ”

Anthony put the robot hand up in front of Tony, and Tony tentatively touched Anthony's palm, which made Anthony immediately happy.

The space shuttle began to land, and the large machinery and combat planes that came and went in the middle of the day made Tony forget about the conversation for a moment.

Parker Sefritsch, who had just been seen on the shuttle, walked out, stood beside Tony, and said, "Welcome to Pandora's Hellgate Base!" ”
