Overwatch invades American comics

Chapter 79: The medicine cannot be stopped (seeking recommendation votes)
"Agent Lister?" Pepper recognized William's voice. Although they had not met many times, she still remembered clearly that William had saved her life.

"Oh, dear Ms. Potts, I'm a consultant, not an agent." William smiled and said, "Mr. Stark, is the health drink I recommend delicious?"

At first Tony didn't remember who William was, but when he heard the word health drink, his face suddenly changed, "It's you? Why are you here? I have something to ask you!"

Pepper didn't know why Tony was so excited all of a sudden, like a cat with its fur standing on end. Tony continued to ask, "Who are you? Why do you know this? Have you been spying on me?"

"Calm down, Mr. Stark." William kept smiling and said, "Don't get excited yet. If you have any questions, let's make an appointment. When are you free, we can meet at Stark Industries."

"No, you have to explain yourself now." Tony disagreed with William. William ignored him and walked away. Just as Tony was about to get out of the car to chase him, a group of reporters surrounded him.

"Get out of the way!" Tony said anxiously. Blocked by these enthusiastic reporters, he could only watch William walk further and further away.

I always feel like I've seen this scene somewhere before. Haha.

"Done. You should thank me." William sat in Coulson's Laura and rubbed his face which almost froze from laughing. "I just tricked Stark. I guess that guy will have sleepless nights tonight."

Coulson was chewing a burger. When he heard William say this, he asked curiously, "What did you do?"

"Secret." William thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, how is your research on Tony's cure going?"

Coulson said while eating, "What else can we do? There is no progress at all. The boss wants to make a new energy source to replace the Ark reactor containing metal palladium. But this is harder than climbing to the sky. I estimate that by the time we finish it, Tony will be dead."

William looked at Coulson meaningfully and said, "If we can't cure palladium poisoning now, we should also find a way to delay the poisoning process. My biology teacher died early. Is there any medicine that can alleviate his symptoms?"

Coulson was stunned when he heard William say this. SHIELD's idea was to replace the energy source in Tony's chest, and this must be a once-and-for-all solution.

But this method seems a bit too difficult. If Tony dies before they can do it, that would be really terrible.

"That makes sense." Coulson quickly wiped his mouth, "I'm going to call Director Fury now!"

Since Tony developed the Ark Reactor, he found the problem. To provide power to the energy source, the best element is palladium.

However, when the palladium element was providing energy to the Ark reactor, Tony was surprised to find that he was poisoned. This poisoning was related to the palladium element.

As long as he uses the Ark Reactor, palladium poisoning will spread throughout his body.

He didn't dare to tell anyone, let alone tell the truth to Little Pepper, because he didn't want her to worry. But it was not so much because he was timid, but because of his arrogant personality that he didn't want to tell anyone.

Logically speaking, he could actually make do with batteries, but he didn't want to carry a battery around with him when he went out, and the battery wasn't enough to power his suit of steel armor.

He wanted people to think that Iron Man was perfect, that he wouldn't get sick or have any problems, and that he didn't even have to take off his armor to go to the bathroom.

So Tony decided to put on a brave face, after all, his face was more important to him than his life, haha.

However, Tony also tried various methods and even made a machine to monitor the concentration of palladium in the blood at any time and anywhere.

However, according to Jarvis' research, there is currently no element in the world that can replace palladium.

If he can't solve this problem as soon as possible, the palladium element will spread throughout his body sooner or later. This feeling of slowly waiting to die is really uncomfortable.

"Ugh... this tastes really weird."

Tony looked at the dark green liquid in the glass. In order to relieve his symptoms, Tony had to drink a lot of chlorophyll juice every day.

This makes him look like a normal person, and the black lines on his chest will not spread to his neck or even his face and will not be seen by others.

But he knew that this was not a long-term solution.

"Mr. Stark, before I leave, let me recommend you a drink." Tony frowned, "Drinks? I still prefer alcohol."

"Believe me, you will definitely need it in the future." William stared into his eyes and said, "Chlorophyll juice is healthy, green and pollution-free. You will definitely like it!"

He remembered that someone had had these conversations with him after the battle with Iron Monger, and he was confused at the time and didn't know what it meant.

But he soon found out that this person seemed to have known about palladium poisoning for a long time.

Not only that, he remembered that this person had mentioned the problem of the iron armor freezing when he first met him.

That man is William Lister, a special consultant to S.H.I.E.L.D.

To be honest, Tony didn't have a good impression of the people from SHIELD, but this person caught his attention. Why did this person know so much?
Could it be that SHIELD has been monitoring me all along?

After the hearing, Tony quickly asked Pepper and William to make an appointment to meet at Stark Industries.

Tony came very early today. He sat in the president's office with a glass of chlorophyll juice in his hand, feeling a little nervous.

The appointment was originally scheduled for 10 a.m., but I didn't expect this guy to arrive until almost 11 a.m. William knocked on the office door and smiled, "Sorry I'm here, Mr. Stark!"

Tony looked at the man in front of him. He looked to be about twenty years old, wearing a neat black suit, with bright blond hair and a harmless look.

"Mr. Stark, if you have any questions, ask now." William sat on the sofa and said straight to the point.

Tony said with a serious expression: "Have you, SHIELD, been monitoring me?"

"Surveillance is not the right word to use." William replied: "The purpose of S.H.I.E.L.D. is to protect the people. It is the last line of defense in this world."

"There's nothing wrong with privacy violation and protection, right?" Tony stared into William's eyes and said, "Do you have a lot of spies around me from S.H.I.E.L.D.? Why do you know so many things?"

William understood what Tony meant. Of course, he was referring to the ice problem and healthy drinks. After all, Tony had never told anyone else about these things, but William told them all.

He believed that all this was caused by SHIELD. But this was unfair to SHIELD, as SHIELD could not predict the future, so how could they have known it long ago?

This was all William's plan. He had laid the groundwork since he met Iron Man. His familiarity with the plot of the movie gave him the initiative, allowing him to better fool this domineering president.

As for SHIELD, let them take the blame.

"Listen." William said, "We control your information not to invade your privacy. SHIELD now knows about your health problems, and we are trying to find a solution."

"Find a way to solve it?" Tony laughed at himself. "It's not that I look down on SHIELD, but even I can't solve it. Unless we can find a new element, I'll be dead."

"All methods are invented by humans." William said, "The chlorophyll juice will delay your poisoning symptoms. Although it is only a temporary solution, I hope you can drink more."

"This is really awful." Tony looked at the dark green liquid in the cup. "Do you have any other recommendations?"

William answered seriously, "There is an old Chinese saying that good medicine tastes bitter. You are sick now, you can't stop taking the medicine, don't forget to take it every day."

Tony thought to himself that you are the one who is sick, but he soon realized something was wrong, "Wait, don't change the subject, you haven't explained clearly the matter of invading my privacy."

"We are here to better protect you."

"Protect me?" Tony curled his lips and said, "I have the invincible Iron Man armor, I don't need anyone to protect me!"

William smiled slightly, he stood up and said: "Really? You are too naive."
