Tony was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief after safely returning home.

Since Luo Bai teleported him directly to the basement, Tony decided to take off his bullet-riddled suit first.

He walked up to the machine, opened his arms, and the machine automatically removed Tony's suit.

Tony felt much more relaxed after taking off his suit, and only then did he ask the question that had been bothering him: "You just said that you recently learned the ability to teleport. Can you learn this kind of superpower? How do you train for it?"

"I have a tool that can give people superpowers through training."

"????"

Tony didn't say anything, but his expression clearly betrayed his nervousness.

Luo Bai's items can teleport people, make them tell the truth, change the flow of time, and now even grant them superpowers.

Shrugging, Tony said casually, "I might have been surprised before, but I've accepted it now. After all, you are a remarkable person."

Luo Bai smiled and asked, "Are you praising me?"

"Of course I'm complimenting you. Actually, I rarely compliment people, but you... wait, what's that thing on your head?"

It was only then that Tony noticed something was off about Luo Bai today.

He was wearing a strange little gadget on his head, and I had no idea what it was for; it looked like a toy.

Tony pointed to the little gadget on Luo Bai's head and joked, "It's good to be young, to still have toys you like. I haven't touched these little things in years."

"This isn't a toy, it's my flying machine."

"An aircraft?"

"It's called a bamboo dragonfly, and it can carry people in flight."

After Luo Bai finished speaking, he immediately activated the bamboo dragonfly.

As the bamboo dragonfly spun, Luo Bai rose into the air. Tony had no idea how Luo Bai controlled it, but at this moment, Luo Bai not only flew up, but could even change direction left and right.

After observing for a while without figuring it out, Tony asked in bewilderment, "How did you take off? And even control your direction?"

How can a palm-sized "toy" with no device or button make people fly?

What puzzled Tony even more was what Luo Bai said next: "The bamboo dragonfly is controlled by brainwaves. You can control its start and direction simply by thinking about it. The principle of flight is also very simple. It has an anti-gravity device installed inside. You should understand now."

"..."

understand?

Tony, however, wanted to understand.

But how could he possibly understand that such a small gadget not only contained an anti-gravity device but could also be controlled using brainwaves?

After staring at the bamboo dragonfly for a while, Tony couldn't help but say, "I really want to take this little thing apart and see just how complicated its internal structure is."

Luo Bai refused: "You should know I won't allow you to do that."

Tony chuckled, "So I'm just thinking about it. By the way, how fast can your thing fly?"

Luo Bai thought for a moment and said, "The normal speed is 80 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed should be more than 100 kilometers per hour, but I haven't tested it, so I don't know the exact data."

No sooner had Tony finished speaking than he said arrogantly, "My suit can fly at 2740 to 4070 kilometers per hour. In terms of flight speed, the suit is still more powerful."

That's why they say a man is a boy until he dies.

Unable to hold back, Luo Bai immediately retorted, "Do we really have to compete over such a trivial matter?"

"I just mentioned it casually."

"Okay, I can teleport."

"...You won..."

The two joked around for a while.

After the joke ended, Tony talked about what happened to him that day: "I went to Mira Valley, Ethan's hometown. The Ten Rings have been causing trouble there, and when I got there they were threatening the locals. I killed those bastards and blew up their base. At that moment, I suddenly realized that this is what I invented the suit for, to protect threatened humanity in my own way."

Tony's eyes shone as he said these words, as if he had finally found the meaning and purpose of life after a long period of aimless living.

This is something to be thankful for, but Luo Bai had to remind him: "But you're being watched today too, and I think a bunch of people will be coming after you soon."

Tony clearly anticipated the trouble the Iron Man suit would cause, but he didn't intend to handle it discreetly: "I'll explain the situation to Rhodes and tell him I was the one intercepted today. By the way, haven't they been investigating how I escaped from the cave? I'm planning to tell them it was thanks to my suit. What do you think?"

All parties are still investigating the matter of the Anywhere Door. Although S.H.I.E.L.D. has not contacted Luo Bai recently, this does not mean that they have given up on the investigation.

Luo Bai was clearly unwilling to get involved in these troubles, so Tony decided to take on everything himself.

"I've already caused enough trouble, so one or two more won't make a difference," Tony said with a smile.

Luo Bai still wanted to focus on his cultivation and acquiring items in peace, so he agreed to the suggestion: "Good idea. Feel free to call me anytime if you need help; don't hesitate to ask."

"Do I look like the kind of person who would be polite? Besides, we're... what's that saying again... sworn brothers. Yeah, something like that." Tony finished speaking and gestured for Jarvis to bring him a drink.

A moment later, Jarvis brought over a small cup of something green.

It doesn't look like a beverage. If Luo Bai isn't mistaken, it seems to be chlorophyll.

This suddenly reminded Luo Bai of something.

That is, the Arc Reactor that Tony is currently wearing on his chest has not been upgraded yet, and one of the substances in it is called "palladium".

According to the original storyline, Tony's poisoning shouldn't be too severe at this point, since he hadn't been back for long.

However, Tony had used the Madness Watch to speed up the production of the suit.

While the Mad Chronograph can reverse time, it cannot restore Tony's body to its original state.

In other words, his current physical condition is what it will be like one or two months from now.

Tony must have realized he was mildly poisoned, and he's probably drinking chlorophyll juice to detoxify.

Thinking of this, Luo Bai tentatively asked, "What did you drink?"

Tony didn't want to worry him, so he answered casually, "It's nothing, just juice."

Seeing that he was unwilling to talk about it, Luo Bai didn't press him, and only said, "Okay, it doesn't look very good."

Tony nodded and grumbled, "It really doesn't taste good..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Potts appeared: "Oh my god... Tony... that was you on TV, right? What happened to your suit... it's riddled with bullet holes?"

Potts just got back; he probably saw the news and rushed over.

Seeing that Tony probably needed to explain things to Potts for a while, Luo Bai immediately left the chaotic scene: "See you next time, Tony."

After saying that, he instantly teleported back home.

Upon arriving home, Luo Bai discovered that there was an extra person in the house.

It wasn't someone from S.H.I.E.L.D., but an elderly man who didn't look very familiar.
