I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

With the energy supply from the reactor, my stealth technology will last much longer than before!

After Lucius returned to his workstation, Tony asked Depp, "Did you hide the video?"

Tony had already discovered that Depp could freely hide or show the video screen during their conversations.

Upon hearing this, Depp immediately hid the light screen and asked, "It's already hidden. Is there something you want to say, Tony?"

Tony stared intently at Depp with a serious expression, and asked, "You secretly built my armor and Arc Reactor?"

"Oh, this..."

Depp looked embarrassed and stammered, unsure of what to say.

When Tony saw Depp's embarrassed state, his previously serious expression immediately vanished, and he bent over, bursting into laughter.

"Hahahaha! You actually get embarrassed? This is the first time I've ever seen you so flustered!"

"To be honest, Depp, you're a fucking genius! You only worked as my assistant for a few days and you managed to build your own armor and arc reactor, and you even invented a freeze beam that I'd never seen before!"

Depp was stunned upon hearing this: "Oh, this, this!"

Tony straightened up, a sly grin spreading across his face. "Although I know you won't agree, I still want to invite you to join Stark Industries."

Chapter 62 Bruce's New Suit

Depp replied, "Although I know you know I'll refuse, I still want to say it loud and clear: I won't work for anyone else! Not even Tony Stark!"

"I have to say, what you said sounds like a tongue twister."

Tony gave the nanofluid a command, and the nanofluid, which had originally become a watch, immediately flowed down his wrist to Tony's palm, turning into a rose that shimmered with a charming metallic luster.

Tony placed the nano rose into the gift box he had prepared beforehand and said, "I should go see Pepper. I haven't spent much time with her lately. I have to stop the volcano from erupting."

Depp laughed and said, "Go for it, Tony, good luck."

"I hope so." The disheveled Tony summoned his armor and soared into the sky.

Depp turned off the video screen, thinking that the first thing Pepper would do upon seeing Tony would definitely be to take a shower with him.

Back at the workbench, the metallic fluid was temporarily unusable; even Tony needed Jarvis's assistance to use it.

In other words, once it's created, only someone with Jarvis-level computing power can barely use it; Selena and others won't be able to use it at all.

However, we still need to get it done as soon as possible, because if this thing is used properly, it can definitely greatly improve our combat power.

Then there's Lucius's invisibility technology, which can be combined with Mysterio's illusion technology and equipped on everyone.

Depp quickly devised a plan to first combine stealth and illusion technologies, and then equip them into everyone's weapons or armor.

Without hesitation, once the goal was set, Depp threw himself into his work.

Lucius's invisibility technique and Mysterio's illusion technique both had some flaws and were relatively limited in their application.

The drawback of stealth technology is that it only provides invisibility, but has little additional deceptive effect and cannot significantly impact the enemy's senses.

However, when combined with illusion technology, one can use illusions to affect the enemy's vision while remaining invisible, thereby more thoroughly disrupting the enemy's offensive rhythm.

While illusion technology can create incredibly realistic illusions, it requires the coordination of multiple projection devices, making it extremely inconvenient to use.

The illusion device that Depp installed on his helmet was actually a simplified version, and its effect and range were far inferior to Mysterio's later possession of multiple illusion devices.

When the two are combined, they complement each other's shortcomings and also increase the number of uses.

At the research facility, Depp and Lucius didn't exchange a single word all afternoon, both engrossed in their research.

As it was nearing the end of the workday, Lucius placed his hand on the table and let out a deep breath.

"Phew~ I've finally finished the first draft of the young master's new battle suit!"

Bruce's fighting skills are extremely powerful, almost reaching the pinnacle of human ability.

Therefore, Lucius did not equip it with too much heavy firepower, since overly powerful equipment and weapons also meant excessively heavy equipment weight.

Abandoning heavy firepower equipment, Lucius's new suit design focuses on improving Bruce's basic attributes.

That is, strength, speed, and defense.

The new suit is centered around the Arc Reactor. After much deliberation, Lucius designed the entire suit as an "energy storage device" that can continuously absorb the reactor's power.

When the suit has sufficient energy reserves, it will absorb all attacks from the outside and then remove them.

Furthermore, when the suit detects that Bruce has entered combat mode and his muscles are tense, it will automatically enhance Bruce's strength and speed.

In other words, as long as the Arc Reactor's energy is not depleted, Bruce's new suit can withstand almost all attacks and enhance his strength and speed at will.

Of course, the most important function of the entire suit is still its stealth technology.

The player can enter stealth mode within 0.5 seconds after activating the stealth function.

The Invisible Batman...

This is obviously a terrifying thing for all the villains in Gotham.

After admiring his newly crafted Batsuit for a while, Lucius decided it was time to show it off to Iron Fist.

As a technician, you can't always be overshadowed by others, can you?

Holding the new Batsuit, Lucius turned around excitedly to Depp, who was still busy at work, and said, "The new Batsuit is finished! You'd never guess how powerful it is!"

Depp remained silent, engrossed in his work.

“Hey! Iron Fist? Turn around and look at me, I’m showing you my newest achievement!” Lucius raised his voice a few decibels.

Depp remained engrossed in his work, completely ignoring the attention.

Is Iron Fist really that focused on his work, or is he deliberately ignoring me?

“I said, turn around and look at me!” Lucius almost shouted.

Depp remained engrossed in his work, silent as ever.

This guy definitely did it on purpose!

Feeling somewhat annoyed at being ignored, Lucius picked up his suit and walked towards Depp.

I absolutely have to use this new suit to shock Iron Fist!

Walking up to Depp, Lucius shouted again, "I said, you're not going to ignore me this time..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lucius saw Iron Fist, who had been engrossed in his work, suddenly grab a wrench and swing it at him.

It has immense power! It is incredibly strong!

Lucius was somewhat bewildered by what he saw.

What the hell?! If you don't want to see your new suit, you don't have to just kill everyone, do you?!

All I did was yell at you a few times.

Years later, when Lucius, Bruce, and Alfred recounted this story, they said:

“I had already reacted, really! Just as I was about to fight back, the wrench was still a full 0.5 centimeters away from hitting me.”

"As you know, I'm a black belt in karate, so I'm quite skilled. Even Iron Fist might not be able to beat me in unarmed combat."

Bruce and Alfred sat obediently on the sofa: "Oh yes, yes, yes."

"But at that moment, the wrench suddenly stopped, like a pre-programmed program, abruptly stopping, ignoring inertia, and violating the laws of physics."

"So I realized what was happening and didn't actually fight back. Then the iron fist holding the wrench disappeared little by little before my eyes."

"Can you imagine? It was like it had been erased by an eraser. I knew immediately that it was just a projected illusion, but it was so realistic!"

"Of course, I wasn't afraid of him from beginning to end, even though it was an iron fist."

Bruce and Alfred, sitting on the sofa, took a sip of tea together: "Ah, yes, yes, yes."

Let's rewind to the present, to the research base.

The "iron fist" wielding the wrench was gradually dissipating when Depp slapped Lucius hard on the shoulder from behind, leaving him completely bewildered.

Lucius broke out in a cold sweat, staring wide-eyed back as a mechanical arm slowly emerged from his shoulder.

"Hey, Ruby, stop shaking!"

Chapter 63 Lv2. Mirror of Introduction

Lucius, still shaken, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Depp's words.

To be honest, he was almost scared to death just now. For a moment, he really thought that Iron Fist was going to blow his head off with a wrench.

Only at this moment did Lucius recall the formidable reputation of the man standing behind him in Gotham.

This guy crushed Maroni's kneecaps with his bare hands; how could I have dared to be so arrogant with him before...?

I'm going crazy!

"I'm fine, but please don't scare me like that again," Lucius said, trying to appear calm.

Depp gently patted Lucius on the back with his palm to help the little black man calm down.

With the completed reactors—two of them—Depp also finished creating the complete youth version of Iron Man armor.

He named the first version of his armor that matched his title... "Boxer 1.0".

"What did you just say? You were going to show me the new Batsuit?"

Hearing Depp's question, Lucius finally calmed down and said, "That's right, this is my latest masterpiece!"

"Could you tell me more about his new features?" Depp asked curiously.

Lucius gradually regained his confidence and said with great interest, "Of course, since Batman doesn't need heavy equipment, I used the Arc Reactor you gave me as the core to add extremely strong protective and strength and speed amplification functions to the suit. As long as the reactor's energy doesn't run out, it will continue to be effective."

Because he had just seen that Depp's armor had a stealth function that was in no way inferior to the one he had researched, he didn't talk about the stealth system on the Batsuit anymore.

“That sounds amazing,” Depp said. “And the Arc Reactor generates its own energy indefinitely, so as long as the energy output isn’t overloaded, it’s practically a perpetual motion machine.”

“That’s right, do you need me to demonstrate for you?” Lucius said excitedly.

"Absolutely necessary!"

Lucius then put on the suit, and after pressing the shrink button, the suit automatically shrunk to fit his body perfectly.

Depp increased the intensity of his attacks, but even with the flame boosters on the robotic arm at maximum power, he couldn't harm it in the slightest.
