Chapter 51 Classic plot and value for money
"Hexagonal bolts, lock every other one!"
"They're coming, oops, hurry up!"
"hurry up……"
In the cave, the progress bar on the old computer screen was only 42%.
Tony Stark, who put on the Mark 1 armor, stared at the screen, as if this would make the progress bar run faster. Only when the progress bar is 100% complete can the armor be activated and unleash its powerful firepower.
There were rapid footsteps and shouts outside the cave.
"Follow me and rush out later!"
"We still need..." Stark tried his best to calm down his tone.
Dr. Ethan, who had made all preparations, turned his head and smiled at Stark.
"Hey, I'm going to buy you some time."
"No!" Tony had already realized something, and he shouted in panic, "We have to go as planned!"
Ethan ignored Tony, just bent down, picked up a gun that fell on the ground, and strode outside. Tony wanted to call him out and opened his mouth, but no sound came out. He just stared at his back blankly, with all kinds of emotions in his heart for a while.
The echo of assault rifles came from the cave passage, shaking the cold stone walls and stinging Stark's eardrums and heart.
The progress bar is still moving slowly.
"Quickly..."
50%, 55%, 60%…
"Quick!" Tony Stark roared involuntarily.
70%, 75%!
There was a sudden burst of gunfire, but the lone assault rifle never fired again.
90%! !
"Ethan..." Stark suddenly froze. Being sensitive and talented, he had already guessed Dr. Ethan's ending. He pursed his lips tightly and felt tearing pain in his heart.
100%! ! !
Click, click, click... The metal mask suddenly closed, and Mark's huge body began to move for the first time. Amidst the rumbling sound, Iron Man strode off the fixed frame.
Turning the corner, Stark saw Dr. Ethan lying in a pool of blood and shouted: "Ethan!"
"Be careful-" Ethan struggled to shout.
A rifle grenade shot out, and Stark just made a sideways movement. The grenade hit the stone wall heavily and exploded with a bang.
The Mark I does not have a machine gun or anything like that, but in the face of flamethrowers that can reach thousands of degrees, even body armor is just a fragile toy.
After neatly dealing with the panicked terrorist, Stark turned his head to listen and saw that there was no movement outside. He didn't know whether the group of guys were ambushing outside or were preparing for a strong attack. But these were not important to Stark. He suppressed the grief in his heart, squatted down and stared at Dr. Ethan, "Hurry up, we should go!"
"We agreed and will go as planned..."
"That's my plan, Stark!" Ethan, who was on his deathbed, smiled. "My family are all dead, and I'm going to see them..."
Stark's lips trembled, and his lungs seemed to be squeezed by something, until Dr. Ethan said the famous words that changed Iron Man's life: "...Don't waste your life!"
There was a soft sound of "clang", but Stark ignored it. He was very confident that the armor made by himself would not cause too much damage even if a grenade exploded under his feet. He just stared at Ethan, watching him about to go through the last journey of his life.
A deep voice suddenly sounded from behind him: "Get out of the way! Tony Stark, if you don't want him to die, then get out of my way!"
The huge mecha made a rapid and sharp clang sound, and Stark stood up angrily, raising his hands, intending to burn the troublemaker to ashes.
But when Stark turned around, he saw a strange guy standing not far away, his body floating in the air, his hands stretched out, endless blue light rising from his side, and even more blue light in his palms. Great prosperity.
"Who are you?" Faced with this unexpected situation that was completely beyond his knowledge system, Stark showed no fear at all. Instead, he took a step forward and blocked the dying Ethan with his steel body.
"The person who came to save you!" Kausu replied calmly, "It seems that you don't need my saving, but this guy is more worthy of my efforts..."
Stark lowered his head in surprise and saw a small wooden stake falling at his feet, spinning and emitting a large amount of blue clouds.
"You'd better get out of the way! Ethan bleeds too fast, and a healing fountain can't restore the bloodline!"
Although he didn't quite understand some of the other party's technical terms, Stark, who didn't feel any hostility, hesitated for a moment and got out of the way.
"Come on, Ethan, you are the first lucky person in the world to enjoy the instant lifting of Naisa!"
Kaous took a deep breath, and the surrounding blue light beams flew up and fell like a waterfall, completely wrapping Dr. Ethan's body.
The next moment, he waved his right hand, and countless blue rain fell out of the air, covering Ethan in an instant. Just as Lan Yu finished, he pointed his left hand again, and a blue light flashed rapidly across Ethan's body.
As soon as the blue light disappeared, his hands suddenly closed together and then quickly opened. A small blue ball of light quietly formed between his palms. The mysterious fluctuations shook the space and directly acted on Ethan's body. Then a blue light flashed and stabbed Ethan in the chest accurately.
Stark, who was stunned by the opponent's methods, finally reacted. He hurriedly rushed to Dr. Ethan and shouted: "Ethan, what do you think?"
Under Stark's call, Dr. Ethan actually opened his eyes, reached out to touch his wounds with a confused expression, and murmured: "I...am I dreaming? How do I feel... …”
"Of course you're fine!"
Kausu slowly leaned against the wall and said with a smile, "Ethan, you don't deserve to die here! To make my hotel bigger and stronger, I need a logistics director. Aren't you a Ph.D. in physics? Mathematics. There is no separation of family..."
Before he could finish speaking, he swayed and almost fell to the ground. He hurriedly supported the stone wall with his hands, panting constantly, and said to himself with a wry smile in a just right voice: "Is it still too reluctant..."
Torrents, Healing Rain, Healing Surge, Healing Wave, Healing Chain, plus the Healing Spring Totem that fell before, completely brought a dying person back in just a few seconds. With this kind of extravagant spending without mana control, not to mention a frail Physics Ph.D., even a graduated MT with only one drop of blood left can instantly reach full max.
The service must be complete, and everything must make the sponsor think it is worth the money!
