Chapter 138: The Key to the Future
"Tony, this is Agent Romanoff." Nick Fury introduced.
"I'm an undercover agent for S.H.I.E.L.D." Black Widow said as she sat down next to Nick Fury. "When we knew you were sick, Director Fury sent me to observe you."
"You should apologize to me." Tony Stark said with some unhappiness.
"You've been busy lately, you've resigned your girlfriend to the CEO, you've given away your possessions everywhere, and you've made your friends fly away in steel armor, if I hadn't understood the situation, I'd have thought you'd be setting things up for yourself."
"I didn't give it to him, he snatched it, I said it just now."
"What, he snatched it? You're Iron Man, and he just snatched your steel armor away? Is it possible that he will beat you up and then snatch your steel armor? ”
Nick Fury said loudly, but he was dumbfounded by Iron Man.
Nick Fury glanced at Black Widow, who immediately pulled out a needle and gave Iron Man a needle.
"Whew, what did you do to me?" Stark clutched his neck and shouted, suddenly feeling much clearer, and suddenly looked at the two of them with some surprise.
"I saved your life," Nick Fury said, "This is lithium dioxide, it can delay your palladium poisoning symptoms, don't get me wrong, this is just a neutralizing agent, it can't cure you, it just can delay your poisoning symptoms, it's not easy to cure you." ”
Stark sighed gloomily: "Believe me, I know this very well, I have been looking for a replacement for palladium metal, I have tried every element on the periodic table-"
Nick Fury interrupted him, "That's what I'm trying to tell you, you haven't tried everything. Nick Fury said this, but suddenly stomped around a few times, and a look of alarm appeared on his face, "Agent Romanoff, are you sure the surroundings have been cleared?" ”
"Very sure." Black Widow said.
Nick Fury's face still didn't relax, and he was still looking around.
"What the hell are you looking for?" Stark asked, puzzled, scanning the surroundings with the bioradar of the steel suit, "She's right, it's just us. ”
Nick Fury nodded, but still looked around nervously, as if trying to find an invisible ghost in the air, until he was sure that there was nothing around, then he turned his head to look at Stark, but the one eye still had a hint of vigilance, "Have you ever felt that your world is shrouded in an atmosphere of intrigue, and there is an eye secretly watching your every move, as if there is an invisible hand behind this world controlling everything?" ”
Tony Stark looked at Nick Fury suspiciously: "Originally, no, when you said this, it seems that you do feel a little bit, do you want to say that the eye is you?" ”
Nick Fury opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he stopped talking, and then he suddenly smiled, "Your feeling is not wrong, I am the eye, and it is because of my eye that people can sleep peacefully at night." ”
Saying this, he lowered his voice, "This is not the place to talk, let's go to your house first." ”
Black Widow seemed to be used to Nick Fury's suspicious attitude, and Stark had no choice but to follow the two out of the restaurant.
Soon after the three of them walked out of the restaurant, two people appeared out of thin air in the originally empty restaurant, one tall and one short, both wearing black suits and black sunglasses, which were the two GMs.
"Do you think he found us?" The tall man asked nervously.
The short man frowned and shook his head, "It stands to reason that it should be unlikely, we weren't in this world at all just now, no instrument or magic can detect our existence, Nick Fury is just an ordinary person, how could he find us, I guess he's just more neurotic, but to be on the safe side, let's help him refresh tonight." ”
Half an hour later, on the balcony of Stark's mansion, Nick Fury looked at the empty sea view around him, finally felt a little more secure, and said something bitter to Stark.
"The thing on your chest is based on unfinished technology, your father said that the Ark reactor was just a springboard for greater technology, and he was ready to make an energy revolution and change the whole world, but Anton Vanke, your father's partner, thought he could make a lot of money with this technology, and your father swept him away.
Then that guy went to the Soviet Union, and then he was sent to Siberia, and for 20 years he lived a life of alcoholism and cynicism, and he hated the Stark family very much, and I think you have already met his son, the guy in Morocco.
Your father once said that only your wisdom and resources can do his unfinished work, and if you feel that your father is not wrong, then you can find the answer to the matter. ”
Leaving a solution to the problem by his own father? This is really dramatic enough, Tony Stark thought of this, and suddenly felt like he couldn't cry or laugh.
After listening to Nick Fury's words, Tony Stark suddenly remembered what the godly chattering guy named Merlin had said to him.
At that time, he asked Merlin for fortune telling and asked how to solve his troubles, and the answer given by the other party was that there must be a solution to his problems, and the answer was hidden in the shadows of the past, could this be the case? If it's true, this guy really has some skills.
Nick Fury beckoned, and several black-clad agents carried a box over.
"These are all relics left behind by your father, maybe you can find some clues in them, Natasha will continue to work undercover at Stark Industries, do you remember Agent Cousson, he will be in charge of your liaison and help you luck Tony."
Nick Fury said that he was going to leave, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, pointed to his one eye, and then pointed at Stark, and said to Stark, "Remember Tony, my eyes will always be on you." ”
When Nick Fury and his men left, Iron Man drank for a while, and then opened the box, which was filled with a pile of research materials and videotapes left by his father, which he spent the next two days studying, and he looked through the materials first, but found nothing of note, and then he seemed to look at the tapes again.
There was everything in these tapes, and there were even some of the things he used to have with his father, but no matter how you looked at it, they were just ordinary tapes, and there was nothing to do with technology at all, until the third night, when he finally noticed something unusual, in the videotapes, his father always seemed to be standing in front of a huge model of the expo and giving a speech, and at the end of the videotape, his father pointed to the huge model and said, "I made it all for you, and I left it all to you. One day, you will understand that it is not only a bunch of buildings, but also my life's work and achievement, which is the key to the future......"
Iron Man didn't listen to the latter words, as his eyes were drawn to the footage of the exposition model that kept flashing back on the screen.
I see, as if he was struck in the brain by a bolt of lightning, he suddenly realized something.
Driving to Stark Industries, he first went to Pepper to say a few words, of course, he didn't dare to tell everything that happened before, just said that he had been recuperating well in the past few days.
When Pepper leaves, he begins to look for the model of the expo, which, to Stark's surprise, is no longer where it was.
A clerk called, "Hey, I remember there's a model of the exposition here, where did it go?" ”
"Well, Mr. Stark, it's downstairs, in the lobby of the staff lounge, and Dr. Qi says it's great for inspiring scientists and their passion for research, so—"
Tony Stark suddenly felt a little strange in his heart, what the hell did he say, he came to the staff lounge, and as soon as he entered the hall, he saw that around the exposition model, seven or eight Stark Industries scientists and engineers were forming a circle around the model, looking fascinated, with a posture of comprehending martial arts cheats - of course, Stark didn't know martial arts cheats or anything, but this did not prevent him from feeling the atmosphere.
"Uh-huh!" He coughed violently, causing all of the players to react.
"Ah, you're here, boss."
"Damn, it's Iron Man."
"Hello, Mr. Stark." One by one, everyone began to say hello.
Stark's eyes widened, "What are you doing?" ”
Asuka said, "It's nothing, I just think the model of this expo is very chic and old, so - do you need us to help you lift it down?" Dr. Qi said you might need it. ”
He instinctively thought there was something strange in it, but nodded anyway, "Help me carry this thing to my car." ”
When Iron Man left with the model, Asuka immediately took out the phone, "Merlin, he took the model away." ”
"Understood." On the other end of the phone, Qin Yu said in a deep voice.
Putting down the phone, there was an excited look on his face, it seems that the decisive battle is about to begin, if the memory is correct, the day Iron Man made the second-generation reactor is the moment when the decisive battle comes.
