Chapter 252 Chapter 420 421 Uninvited Guests

Tony Stark naturally doesn't believe such nonsense. He has always believed in the supremacy of science.

Therefore, in his opinion, even if there really are demons in this world, they are most likely some unknown aliens.

For example, the battle that took place on the streets of New York not long ago shocked the whole country.

It is said that the monsters killed by the [Thunder Warriors] are the "demons" in the legend.

If it really was that kind of thing, Tony Stark was confident that he could kill a lot of them while wearing armor.

Then, he clicked on the video file of the base leader, one-star Brigadier General Jerritt, being publicly executed by the leader of the Ten Rings Gang, Mandarin, on live television.

Although he had already seen it several months ago when Colonel James Rhodes came to him for help.

But at that time he was focused on building a new battle armor and didn't pay any attention to such unimportant things, so he put the matter behind him that day.

Fortunately, the video is not long, only a little over two minutes...

All that happened before was the bloody drama of that KB member with a Middle Eastern face using hostages to force President Matthew Ellis to compromise.

Tony Stark had no interest in this, so he fast-forwarded to the last part.

“WTF???”

When he saw that Mandarin had transformed his right hand into a huge crab-claw-like mouth full of fangs, and then directly burned Brigadier General Jerritt into a pool of boiling flesh and blood, Tony Stark suddenly felt his stomach churning and almost vomited out all the breakfast he had eaten this morning.

Wait, this is fucking magic?

Or is he the "super addict" spawned by [Compound No. 5]?
At this moment, Jarvis' voice rang out again, "Sir, according to the data, the heat released in yesterday's explosion exceeded 3,000 degrees Celsius. Any living thing within ten meters would have been directly vaporized in the blast."

Upon hearing this, Tony Stark quickly focused his attention on the virtual image, looked at where Happy Hogan had fallen, frowned, and asked:
"Have any bomb fragments or gunpowder residue been found within 5 kilometers of the theater?"

"No, sir... But after marking the thermal signature at the scene and filtering it using 3,000 degrees Celsius for heat changes across the United States that matched the criteria over the past six months, I found a highly similar thermal signature."

As he spoke, the 3D holographic projection in front of Tony Stark had changed, transforming into an "electronic sandbox of the entire United States of America" ​​about one square meter in size.

In the location of [Tennessee], a red temperature column rose, symbolizing high temperature.

Tony Stark raised his hand and tapped it lightly, and a news item from a few days ago popped up immediately.

According to local witnesses, a middle-aged man with a disability transformed into a lizard monster after an argument with someone while shopping. The monster then exploded while being pursued by police, ultimately killing six police officers and injuring 22 others.

Σ(°△°|||)︴

WTF? ? ?

What is wrong with this world? Why is there something abnormal everywhere?
I was clearly investigating information related to the Ten Rings Gang, so how did it become related to the lizard monster?

Tony Stark suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and then ordered, "[Jarvis], I remember that Lizardmen appeared in [New York] before, right?"

"That's right, sir. Apart from this incident, there have been two records of the Lizard Man appearing so far. One of them happened a few months ago in Hell's Kitchen. According to records in the NYPD and S.H.I.E.L.D. databases, a riot involving supernatural forces seemed to have occurred there. In the end, a street hero called Daredevil and the Hand who colluded with him were successfully defeated by a street hero named Spider-Woman and a Lizard Man.

The other incident happened more than half a month ago. Another lizardman killed dozens of researchers in the Osborne Group building. He then had a fierce conflict with the police officers who rushed to the scene, seriously injuring more than a dozen police officers. He eventually escaped successfully..."

"Damn it, it's like this again!"

Tony Stark rubbed his aching forehead and said impatiently:
"That's enough. Forget about that damn Spider-Man and continue searching for unusual events in Tennessee... Also, help me shut down all news that has nothing to do with the Ten Rings Gang."

"Yes, sir, but it seems you have a visitor."

[Jarvis] then pulled up a surveillance camera outside the villa.

In the picture, a young woman with curly hair is standing in front of a curtain wall made of bulletproof glass and tapping it gently.

"What?!!"

Tony Stark, whose train of thought was interrupted, shouted angrily, "Can anyone tell me why someone would knock on the door at this time?"

"I think I just threatened a KB leader. Shouldn't we be in complete lockdown right now?"

"And... who is this woman?"

Jarvis responded very humanely: "Sir, once you made your address public in front of so many news media, I will be unable to suppress the relevant information."

"Also, I need to remind you that... right now, there are at least four TV station helicopters tracking and filming your villa in the air."

“Fu*k!!”

Tony Stark couldn't help but curse, then he ordered as he entered the [Mark 43 Orc Hunter Armor], "Let her in."

The main entrance of the villa.

The explosion-proof glass door slowly opened under the control of an electric device, and a young woman with brown curly hair walked in with a curious look on her face.

"Who are you? Don't tell me you are Mandarin?"

Tony Stark, wearing the [Mark 43 Orc Hunter Armor], walked out of the basement, opened his visor, and looked at the other party with a puzzled look.

"Sure enough, you don't remember me anymore!"

The curly-haired woman rolled her eyes and said with an awkward smile, "But I'm not surprised at all..."

Tony Stark on the other side interrupted with a deadpan expression: "Sorry, I'm not targeting you, but I can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning."

"Ok."

The curly-haired woman nodded noncommittally, her expression gradually becoming serious. "Listen, don't worry, I'm not here to bother you... but I have something important to discuss with you alone, and it's best not here."

"Uh……"

Now it was Tony Stark's turn to feel embarrassed. He had obviously misunderstood and glanced upstairs with a guilty look.

"Normally, I wouldn't refuse a request from a beautiful woman, but I'm in a relationship right now, so... you know."

"Tony!"

At this moment, the voice of Pepper Potts suddenly came from upstairs, "Is there a guest?" "Yes, it's Dr. Maya Hansen."

Tony Stark had just learned the other party's identity from Jarvis. As if afraid that his girlfriend would make a wrong guess, he quickly said loudly:
"Just an old botanist friend I've met before, but we're not really close at all."

Then, before Pepper Potts went downstairs, he whispered to Maya Hansen, "Please, don't tell me there's a twelve-year-old kid outside waiting in the car with me, someone I've never met."

"No, it's thirteen!!"

Seeing that this playboy had quickly distanced himself from her, Maya Hansen said with both anger and amusement:

"Well, I won't give birth to a child for an irresponsible guy like you... Let's get back to the point. I'm here this time because I really need your help with something."

Tony Stark heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that there was no illegitimate child of his own outside, but then he stared at the other party with vigilance and asked, "Wait a minute, why now?"

"Of course, it's because I watched the news..."

Maya Hansen said bluntly: "Given what I know about those people, I don't think you will survive this week."

"Those people? You're not referring to the Ten Rings Gang, are you?"

Just as Tony Stark was about to ask more questions, Pepper Potts had already walked down from upstairs. She smiled at Maya Hansen like a hostess and said:

"I'm so sorry, but since Happy is in the hospital, we didn't expect anyone to visit during this time... and it's someone's ex-girlfriend."

Well, now you start acting like an old Onmyoji.

However, Maya Hansen was obviously not a good person either. She glanced at Tony Stark and counterattacked calmly:
"No, I'm not his girlfriend at all. After all, we only had a one-night stand at most."

I just told him that he was my sex buddy, so what?
"Ah this..."

Tony Stark was suddenly overwhelmed and could only shrug helplessly at Pepper Potts. "I just made the same mistake every man makes."

"Yeah, that's what you're best at."

Pepper Potts smiled calmly, then turned to Maya Hansen and said, "Believe me, your choice is wise. At least it saves you a lot of trouble."

"Listen, I'm not here to argue with you..."

Maya Hansen was about to say something when a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the hall. "Sir, three unidentified armed helicopters have been spotted, and they are targeting your villa with missiles."

"Missile launched, expected to hit the villa in 9 seconds... 8, 7..."

"Have those bastards finally dared to show up? Honey, take Dr. Hansen to a safe area outside the villa immediately. Come back after I've dealt with these intruders."

After Tony Stark gave a brief instruction, he directly controlled the [Mark 43 Orc Hunter Armor] to smash the glass curtain wall opposite and flew out.

Whoosh whoosh—

Dozens of miniature high-explosive missiles were launched from behind the armor and successfully intercepted the oncoming missiles in mid-air.

Rumbling--

The [Mark 43 Orc Hunter Armor] emerged from the smoke produced by the explosion, and then launched two more powerful micro rockets from its arms, shooting down two helicopter gunships outside that were attempting to continue attacking the villa.

Then he headed straight for the third helicopter that was trying to turn around and escape.

Nourishes—

The laser weapon on his wrist successfully cut open the cabin door, and then he looked at the bald man sitting in the co-pilot seat and said, "Asshole, we have something to talk about now!!"

however.

Just as he was about to knock the man unconscious and then take him back to the villa for interrogation, the bald man - Eric Savin, Aldredge Killian's deputy, nicknamed "Cold-Blooded" - suddenly shot out a ball of fire from his mouth.

Caught off guard, Tony Stark was blasted away. "Well, if you don't want to talk to me, then go talk to God directly."

Just now, [Jarvis] has scanned the other party's facial features and successfully confirmed his identity.

But what surprised Tony Stark was that the other party was actually the deputy of Aldredge Killian, president of AIM (Advanced Technologies).

Not long ago, the two of them personally went to Stark Industries to discuss investment matters with Pepper Potts.

It seems that this [AIM (Advanced Technology)] is very likely the financial backer behind the [Ten Rings Gang].

With old and new grudges piled up together, Tony Stark immediately decided to kill the thugs sent by his rival first, and then go and settle the score with that self-righteous guy himself!
whoosh-

boom--

A micro rocket accurately hit the armed helicopter that was trying to escape. With a loud explosion, the helicopter turned into a huge fireball and crashed straight into the sea below.

Just as Tony Stark was about to return to the villa, Jarvis' voice rang out.

"Sir, I just detected a high signal in the seawater that is highly consistent with the heat source signal at the explosion site. The enemy is currently diving deeper."

As it spoke, it had already displayed a thermal image in front of Tony Stark.

In the picture, a huge creature with a huge tail continued to swim in the water, and disappeared from the thermal image after a few seconds.

"Wait a minute, did that bald guy turn into a lizard and escape?"

Tony Stark suddenly realized that perhaps the crisis he was facing this time was far more dangerous than he had previously imagined.

Then he drove the [Mark 43 Orc Hunter Armor] back to the villa.

At this time, Pepper Potts and Maya Hansen also walked in from the main entrance cautiously.

"Tony, thank God, I'm so glad you're okay."

Pepper Potts patted her chest with a look of relief on her face, and was about to walk over to give Tony Stark a big hug.

But who would have thought that the latter, contrary to his usual behavior, directly ignored her and walked straight to Maya Hansen, raised the palm cannon that shone with dangerous light, pointed it at her head, and asked coldly:

"Ms. Maya Hansen, I'm afraid you must give me a satisfactory reason to leave here alive today..."
