Chapter 172: The Movement of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, the Regrouping of the Avengers

"God, Tony, what are you doing?"

"You should rest!"

Inside Marbury's luxury villa.

Seeing Stark with coffee and a few clicks in front of a pile of data, Pepper couldn't say how speechless.

At the same time, not to mention how worried she was, she quickly walked up to the playboy with a reproach in her tone.

"Pepper, calm down, you're overreacting."

"Isn't it just a small operation, it's not a big deal."

The playboy looks like he doesn't care.

Let him lie in bed like a corpse and do nothing, then it would be better to let him die as Tony.

"Minor surgery?"

Pepper didn't even know what to say.

If thoracotomy is a minor surgery, what is a major surgery?

Pepper began to persuade Playboy again.

If it had been before, Tony would certainly not have listened to Pepper's advice, and certainly Pepper would not have been so "chattering".

Just like when Tony had just come out of the cave, Pepper just suggested that Tony go to the hospital, but Tony refused and didn't say anything more.

But now it's different.

The relationship between the two has changed.

It is no longer a simple superior, but a step further.

So naturally, the situation has also changed, and under Pepper's "mandatory order", Tony temporarily stopped the work at hand.

But when Pepper left, there was no doubt that Tony was on his way.

The last thing he can bear is to waste his time in vain.

Especially when so much important information is obtained from the diary.

Even now, because of the fact that he has just finished the operation, the playboy can only work seven or eight hours a day, and he can no longer stay up all night as willfully as before, which has made Tony very dissatisfied.

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for more than three months, and Tony's body has almost recovered.

He was firing on all cylinders again and was at full capacity.

"All the clues related to Atlantis have been found and analyzed."

"But it turns out that these are all nonsense, and that's not the Atlantis we're looking for at all."

"Where exactly is Atlantis mentioned in the diary, unfortunately, we don't have the slightest clue."

Luxury villa basement.

A projection screen appeared in front of Tony, and the face of the boiled egg was prominently displayed on the screen.

The two were exchanging information about the diary.

The braised egg on the other side nodded, not too surprised by this.

This kind of thing is completely legendary, and there is no tangible evidence at all, and the possibility of finding it is really slim.

"Where's Wakanda?"

Nick Fury's face remained unchanged and he asked again.

"Jarvis didn't find anything special."

Playboy replied, "No matter how they did it, their disguise was very successful." ”

The disguise is so good that even a super AI like Jarvis can't find any traces, which is really telling.

"Where's your side? It should be the same. ”

Tony then looked up, glanced at the braised egg, and guessed in a very determined tone.

The boiled egg didn't say much, but replaced the answer with silence.

Tony actually guessed right.

Coulson didn't dare to slack off after receiving the order of the boiled egg, and immediately sent a team of elite soldiers to secretly carry out this mission.

However, after such a long time, the results of the survey show that Wakanda is really that poor and backward small African country!

Nothing strange was found.

It's like the diary spoilers are wrong!

It's been so long since I got the diary, and the information on it has never been wrong.

This time, the boiled egg is naturally more inclined to choose to believe in the diary.

Although the boiled egg can't figure out for a while, how the other party managed to achieve this kind of perfect disguise.

But it is clear that this country is indeed unfathomable.

"It seems that so."

Tony knew it.

But this kind of thing, Tony doesn't bother to meddle.

He asked Jarvis to investigate Wakanda, just curious about this strange country.

I want to see what this world's most developed country, which is recognized by the diary, is really like.

But when Jarvis didn't find any useful information, he simply gave up.

Whatever the country looks like, it has nothing to do with him, does it?

"It seems that the diary is right, the country is not as simple as it seems."

Tony just sighed approvingly, and didn't say anything else.

Playboy's attitude did not come as unexpected as the boiled egg expected.

And the boiled egg contacted Tony this time, mainly because of Atlantis or Wakanda.

It's another very important thing.

What's the matter?

The Cosmic Cube thing!

"Stark, there's one thing you need to know."

The boiled egg then continued to open his mouth to Tony with a solemn face, "There have been some abnormal reactions on the side of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. ”

The playboy's face immediately began to become extremely solemn.

The diary has long been passed through, and there are space gems hidden in the cosmic Rubik's Cube!

And the space gem is the "prey" of purple sweet potato essence!

Considering that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research on the Rubik's Cube attracted the invasion of the purple sweet potato essence, how could Tony remain calm when he heard the Rubik's Cube have an abnormal reaction at this moment?

"What happened to the Rubik's Cube?"

"Nick Fury, you're not going to start studying the Cosmic Cube in private again, are you?"

Tony's face immediately froze, forcing him to look at the boiled egg and question.

"While it does sound like my style, it's not, not this time."

Nick Fury immediately shook his head in denial, looking so calm, just like the real thing.

And in fact, it is.

Under normal circumstances, boiled eggs do secretly study the cosmic Rubik's Cube in secret.

But after knowing that his research on the Rubik's Cube would attract an alien invasion, the boiled egg dispelled this idea in time.

Since that time the diary spoiled the relevant content, Lu Dan suspended all research on the cosmic Rubik's Cube.

Or the only research is to let Playboy design a security system in the dark energy joint base to prevent the theft of the cosmic Rubik's Cube.

That's all.

"What happened to the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?"

Tony stared at the boiled egg for a few seconds, not wasting any more time on the topic, it didn't make any sense.

Instead, he got down to business.

"Just this morning, the Rubik's Cube suddenly activated on its own."

"I've confirmed, it wasn't my people who did it, no one has done anything to the Rubik's Cube."

"It's like suddenly waking up from hibernation, in a state of excitation."

Nick Fury told Tony in detail about the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.

"Are you sure no one has done anything?"

Tony frowned slightly, confirming the situation with Nick Fury.

It's not that he can't trust the boiled eggs, it's just that the matter is too important, and Tony has to confirm it repeatedly.

"Do you think that as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., I can't even figure out this kind of thing?"

Nick Fury is rightfully authentic.

Tony couldn't say anything, and after a little silence, he continued to ask, "How is the Rubik's Cube now?" ”

"It's still in a state of excitation, and it seems to be getting more and more unstable."

After Nick Fury gave Tony a brief description of the situation, he immediately extended an invitation to Tony, "I think you should come and have a look." ”

"I think so!"

Tony still had any nonsense and quickly cut off the communication.

Then, with the fastest speed, he rushed to the dark energy joint base.

Joined up with Nick Fury, who had been waiting for the scene for a long time.

"The Rubik's Cube is still in a state of excitation, and from time to time it emits some irregular energy pulses."

"I'm afraid it's not a good sign."

While briefing Tony on the situation, Nick Fury personally led Tony and led Tony to the cosmic demons.

The playboy looked around, and sure enough, he saw that the originally inconspicuous Cosmic Rubik's Cube was now flashing with a dazzling blue light.

Buzz!

And that's not all.

As Nick Fury said, the energy inside the Rubik's Cube is constantly surging, and it is in a state of complete activity.

"It's not a good sign."

Tony's brow furrowed.

Then he quickly walked to the side of the screen and carefully analyzed the various readings on it.

"Stark, can you tell me something?"

The braised egg's face also became very solemn, and he leaned over to Tony's side with a solemn expression.

"Isn't the Cosmic Cube able to open the door of space?"

"I guess it's doing that."

After some detailed research and analysis, Tony gave such a very painful answer.

"You mean, the Rubik's Cube will open the space door on its own? Is this possible? ”

Nick Fury made sure again.

"It's a product of the stars, and it's impossible."

Tony looked right, "Maybe someone started it remotely?" ”

Nick Fury's heart suddenly became heavy, as if it had pressed against a mountain.

Considering Tony's rank, although the other party gave only a speculative conclusion, the boiled egg still didn't dare to slack off.

Especially considering the invasion of Loki mentioned in the diary.

He turned his head and stared at the cosmic Rubik's Cube that was still "shining" with one eye: "In other words, next, there may be someone else shuttling over?" Like, Loki? ”

"We'll find out next."

Tony also set his sights on the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, meaningfully, "But before that, we have to be ready." ”

"Listen, everyone, activate Plan 2!"

Nick Fury and Tony glanced at each other, and there was no nonsense, and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and gave such an order.

Tony took out a small "element" that had been prepared a long time ago and installed it on a computer interface in the base.

casually instructed: "Jarvis, you will take over the security system next." ”

"Understood, sir!"

Jarvis, who went online in seconds, immediately responded and took over all the relevant systems as soon as possible.

"Also, send me a suit of armor."

Tony gave Jarvis such an order again.

"Roger!"

With Jarvis's words, the floor of the balcony on the top floor of the Stark Building immediately separated.

A high-tech-looking, high-tech launch pad is revealed.

A drone was immediately launched, spewing blazing flames in the direction of the Dark Energy Joint Base.

Of course, it's not just a drone.

It carries a new set of Warframe that Stark has recently developed: the Mark VII.

Compared to the previous steel armor, Mark VII has technical upgrades in many places.

But the biggest technological breakthrough is undoubtedly the rapid deployment of the system.

To put it simply, the armor no longer needs to rely on bulky mechanical arms.

The deployment program can be automatically started to cover the entire body of the target person.

I have to say that it is indeed a lot more convenient than before.

As for the way to use it with drones, it is indeed not in the original movie universe.

This is one of the changes caused by the flapping of the wings of Zhou Cheng's butterfly.

Considering that Loki could come at any time, the Rubik's Cube in the Dark Energy Combined Base is at risk of being snatched at any time.

In order to be able to respond immediately, Playboy developed this supporting system.

And now sure enough, it has also come in handy.

Sou!

That's it.

The drone left a dazzling trail over the city of New York.

In less than three minutes, he flew to the Dark Energy Joint Base.

Tony Stark has been waiting in the base compound for a long time, and his hands have long been wearing "identification bracelets".

Two lasers were fired from inside Mark's armor to complete the scan.

And then.

Bang!

The drone launched Mark's seven armor and "smashed" it directly on Tony Stark.

Click!

Mark Seven began to carry out a series of rapid and rigorous assembly movements, like flowing water, quickly covering Tony's whole body.

The Destroyer is the coolest of all kinds.

Dressed in a cool armor, Tony returned to the Dark Energy Joint Base and came to Nick Fury.

The boiled egg glanced at the heavily armed playboy, and the confidence in his heart suddenly became a lot more sufficient.

No matter who is divine who may open the door of space, the destroyer around him is already the most powerful weapon on the earth today.

Of course.

In addition to Playboy, there was already a team of heavily armed S.H.I.E.L.D. agents standing not far from the two.

At this moment.

Everyone's eyes were all on the shining cosmic Rubik's Cube, without blinking.

The atmosphere at the scene began to become heavy and oppressive unconsciously.

"Sir, someone is approaching the base."

In the quiet scene, Jarvis's voice rang out, "It's Captain America Steve Rogers, did you activate the interception program?" ”

"The 'old guy'?"

Tony's eyebrows furrowed, and he glanced at the braised egg beside him, "You called him?" ”

"That's right, I sent a call to the captain." Nick Fury nodded.

Considering that it was possible that it was Loki who came through the space door, the boiled egg naturally did not dare to take it lightly.

"Let him in."

Tony wasn't surprised by this, didn't say much, and casually gave the order to Jarvis.
