Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!
Chapter 223 Tony's Melancholy
Tony was not greatly affected by the current predicament.
In the safe haven he dug, he even had the leisure to use his suit to analyze the structure and elements of the current planet.
He himself was contemplating the anomalies of this planet.
"Those monsters have the ability to fly in space for long periods of time, but what do they eat?" Tony stroked his chin. With the threat of the monsters temporarily relieved, a sense of unease began to creep in.
"Aside from these monsters, there is absolutely no trace of any other life on this planet, whether animal or plant. Such an environment could not possibly support life."
"Jarvis, don't you think something's really wrong? Do those monsters eat dirt?"
Yes, sir, it lacks sufficient justification for monsters to live on this barren planet devoid of food.
I have a theory: perhaps they were deliberately released onto this planet by some captives?
"Yeah," Tony hummed in agreement. "That's what I think too."
"They are more like guard dogs protecting a treasure than the native species that live on this planet."
"There is something on this planet that needs their protection."
The fact that the monster stopped pursuing the spaceship after it had traveled a certain distance from the planet further increases the probability of this hypothesis.
"So what exactly is on this planet?" Tony's interest was piqued; the unknown was incredibly alluring to him.
"Jarvis, we need to activate the Blanche probe." Tony made a decisive decision.
The Blanche Probe was the result of his first project, a super probe he developed with the original Tony Stark.
Theoretically speaking, even in such a storm, the Blanche probe should be able to perform some operations.
Tony thought the massive storm was also a good opportunity, because the monster wouldn't stay in the storm for long, though he didn't know why yet.
However, without monsters harassing them, Blanche's detector doesn't have to worry about being damaged by monsters.
But Jarvis quickly warned, "Sir, the outer casing of the Blanche detector will suffer some damage."
"That's not a problem; we still have plenty of spare parts for repairs, don't we?"
【Alright, sir, if you insist…】
"From now on, try to contact the spacecraft every so often. I need to deploy the Blanche probe as soon as contact is established."
【Okay sir, a communication plan has been set up based on the current storm trends. Please wait patiently.】
"Um……"
Tony manipulated his suit, ejected a vial of compressed nutrition, and began his dinner.
It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either; it was nowhere near as good as a cheeseburger.
I doubt Morgan would even dare to try this...
To be honest, I've thought about Morgan several times since I left.
I wonder how Pepper and Morgan are doing, and whether Morgan's emotions have become more stable.
If possible, he wanted to stay by their side forever. But this messed-up world left Tony feeling utterly exasperated.
Tony gave a wry smile, realizing that he had probably had very few genuine laughs in his life.
First time wearing the Mark suit and flying into the sky? Count as one.
My wedding with Pepper counts as one too.
Of course, Morgan's birth also counts.
There were more smiles, but the troubles didn't decrease.
Sometimes, Tony feels like his life from his youth to the present is like a movie, with him as the protagonist, constantly solving all sorts of troubles that come his way.
Technology can change the world, and Tony saw further than many others; he envisioned the future. But the appearance of aliens shattered his understanding.
When he accepted the existence of aliens, Thanos, the cosmic overlord, appeared and said he would destroy the universe.
Strange, Thor, Infinity Stones, the Time Bureau, the collision of the multiverse. He solves trouble time and time again, but an even bigger problem always awaits him in the next phase.
Before the super-gene evolution serum was available, Tony wondered how many more years his body and mind could hold out. If an even greater crisis were to strike next time, what could he, too old and unable to move, still do?
Perhaps Blue Star will continue to rely on Lin Yi?
That kid, with those abilities, even Tony would believe he could destroy the universe if he lived that long.
Fortunately, the successful development of the super-gene evolution agent gave Tony greater hope and motivation to move forward.
[Sir, we have detected abnormal mood swings in you. Would you require some form of psychological counseling?]
Tony's abnormality was detected by a data stream generated by the monitors inside his suit.
Tony took another deep breath: "No need, Jarvis, I'm much stronger than before. I just miss Morgan a little."
He subconsciously touched the armor on his left arm. There, he found the prototype of the Super Gene Evolution Serum Type II, which he and the original Tony had developed together.
It is highly unstable and can only be used as reference material and direction, or as a last resort in case of unexpected events.
"Jarvis, what stage are we at in the derivation of the Super-Gene Evolution Agent Type II?"
As Tony finished speaking, data began to flow on the screen inside the visor.
[A total of 2361677 simulation experiments have been conducted in the model, with 1387 different materials used and the number of synthetic sequence changes is...]
"Get to the results." Tony closed his eyes, not wanting to hear these data-driven reports.
"I want to know how quickly we can derive a safe super-gene evolution agent type II."
"Sir, according to the current model, we're stuck on the last step."
"Is it a material issue or something else?"
[Materials issue, sir. We have made several attempts to synthesize alternative materials, but none have achieved the desired stability.]
Currently, the adverse reaction rate after using Type II agents is as high as 66%, far below the standard for use.
Tony fell silent.
For a moment, all that could be heard was the howling of the storm and the crashing of sand and gravel outside the cave entrance.
After an unknown amount of time, Tony suddenly raised an eyebrow and spoke again.
"Jarvis, do you think it's possible that the monsters outside the storm might carry what we need?"
Jarvis was silent for two seconds.
There is a certain probability, sir, that the unnamed monsters can survive in space, and theoretically, obtaining their genetic information would help us with our next steps in research.
There's even a chance that our Type II drug will produce an even more powerful effect.
However, sir, I must remind you that unnamed monsters are group-oriented, making individual capture extremely difficult and dangerous.
Tony rubbed his hands together through his suit, seemingly unconcerned about the danger Jarvis had mentioned.
"Haven't we faced enough dangers, Jarvis?"
"Come on, I need you to integrate the basic behavioral pattern predictions from the interactions with those monsters."
"We have to give it a try, don't you think, Jarvis? After all, that's the heart of our trip, isn't it?"
