Chapter 31 Mark VI: Black Light
"Duman (dumb), can you clean up this place? Oh, it's really terrible."
Duman turned his head (arm) and looked at Tony blankly.
"Okay, you can't ask for a robotic arm to be as smart as Jarvis." Mo An sat on the chair next to him and took a sip of tea. "I think you just used Jarvis too much and you got spoiled."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Moan." Jarvis said.
Tony wanted to say something else, but was reminded by Jarvis that there was an incoming call with a blocked signal.
"Colson, how about Enchanted Land?"
He thought it was Coulson who got off the plane and called the message, but the voice that sounded after he got through was not him.
"Tony, are you okay?"
It's Ivan Vanko.
Mo An looked over with interest.
"Haha... I doubled the rpm."
Tony would never forget that sound.
"You said that doubling the speed will produce more energy. That's a good suggestion."
Ivan Vanko sat on the ground, behind him were two bodyguards suspended from the ceiling.
"Aren't you already dead, and you're still so energetic?" Tony said lightly.
"Each each other."
Tony silenced the phone and told Jarvis, "Follow him."
"Yes."
Ivan Vanko continued: "Now the true history of the Stark name will be written..."
"Jarvis, where is he?" Tony asked while looking at the screen.
"Accessing Oracle Network..." The earth projection on the screen enlarged little by little, "East Coast..."
"What your father did to my family forty years ago," Ivan Vanke took off his glasses, "I will return it to you in forty minutes. I hope you are ready."
He hangs up.
"The tri-state area...Manhattan and the outer boroughs...call tracking is incomplete," Jarvis said.
Tony rolled his eyes, this timing was obviously close.
But he accidentally glanced at the news next to him, and his eyes were immediately attracted.
【In order to maintain peace】
【Justin Hammer】
Tony thought for a while, grabbed the reactor and put it on his chest.
"gentlemen..."
"If you want to test it, just do it." Tony fastened the reactor, "Assemble the suit and start now."
"We don't know yet whether it affects..."
"Don't worry, Jarvis." Moan stood up slowly from behind, "The reactor is absolutely safe, I promise."
"Oh, by the way, do you want to give the new armor a name?" Tony suddenly thought.
"How about black light?" Mo An smiled.
"Um...it's not bad, it's just a little sloppy. This name has been lingering in your head for several days." Tony smiled.
"How about you see through it without telling it?" Mo An also smiled.
Seeing that both gentlemen said it was safe, Jarvis simply broke it and started assembling the armor.
......
Stark Industries Expo.
Pepper led his assistant out of the car, and Hogan said, "I'll wait for you below."
"Thanks, Happy."
As soon as she got out of the car, she could hear a radio announcing: "Justin Hammer, his presentation will be held in the main exhibition hall..."
Pepper went upstairs.
There was thunderous applause, and Justin Hammer came to the center of the stage with exaggerated dance steps to the music, "That's right, thank you everyone for coming."
"Ladies and gentlemen, for too long this country has had to put its brave sons and daughters at risk, but then along comes the Man of Steel and the days when we thought we were sacrificing our lives are behind us."
"But unfortunately, that technology is not available to us."
"It's not fair."
"Nonetheless, it was a remarkable innovation that made headlines around the world."
“Today, friends, the media has a new problem that may require them to devote all their ink to it!”
Justin Hammer gestured to move the podium, "Let me introduce to you today, the new face of the American military!"
"Hammer Drone!"
Magnificent music sounded, the part behind the stage near the screen and the left and right floors opened, and rows of robots slowly rose up.
According to Justin Hammer, these batches of robots are from the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps.
The music faded, "If you ask me, this is much better than cheerleading."
Justin Hammer was mocking Tony's appearance in the opening scene of the expo.
Ivan Vanke sat in front of the computer, observing every move at the scene through the perspective of the drone.
"But although this technology is extremely revolutionary, there will always be times when people need to go to the battlefield in person."
"Ladies and gentlemen, today I am proud to introduce to you Prototype One, the multi-threat response suit, and its pilot, Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Mr. James Lord!"
The floor in front of the stage opened, and a replica of "Iron Man", all gray and black, with a heavy machine gun on its shoulder, officially appeared in people's sight.
Pepper looked normal, she knew this.
Rhodes saluted the audience through his uniform.
The drones behind him followed closely behind.
"For the United States and its allies, Hammer Industries will..." Before he could finish, everyone was suddenly attracted by the strange noise behind them.
A figure held up by a black flame was seen flying towards the stage, and finally landed in front of Rhodes.
It still has the familiar appearance of the battle armor, and it still has the familiar gold and red color scheme, except that the energy source on its chest has become an inverted triangle, and it emits black light.
People recognized him almost immediately, it was Tony Stark who had recently frustrated the military!
"I give you a prototype, and you make it look like this?" Looking at the war machine up and down, Tony's voice came from inside the armor.
"It's because of the lack of technology." Rhodes smiled, "But you came here before it was fully charged? The lights didn't even light up."
"What do you know? This is new energy, the only one in the world." Tony tapped his chest.
Tony Stark's arrival caused an uproar, and everyone agreed that he was here to destroy Hammer Industries' reputation.
But the purpose of Tony's coming was not Justin Hammer at all, but Ivan Vanko who was controlling everything behind the scenes.
"We're in trouble," Tony said to Rod.
"What?" Rhodes didn't react.
"Everyone, let me say a few words." Tony turned to the audience sitting in the audience and said, "These drones from Hammer Industries were manufactured by Justin Hammer who hired the dead criminal Ivan Vanko."
"Yes, you heard it right, it is Ivan Vanko who has been clearly dead in reports."
"I don't know if he can hear me now, but I advise everyone to run away as far as you can, otherwise you will be shot."
Before he finished speaking, the barrel of one of the army drones was suddenly lowered. The next second, bullets poured out and flames raged.
"Sh*t, he can really hear it." Tony reacted quickly and blasted the drone with a black light palm cannon, but more drones had already woken up.
