Marvel's female superheroine travels through multiple worlds

Blackwatch retains its original central structure and expands outwards from it.

It is equipped with eight sealed suspension bridges, and the outer material is the same gold-titanium alloy used in Iron Man, which greatly improves its defense and impact resistance.

An optical camouflage veil is also fitted within the outer metal interlayer, representing Stark Industries' latest camouflage technology.

With all features enabled, the air fortress can enter stealth mode, which is currently still in the experimental stage and has not been officially announced.

Even so, even the most advanced radar in the United States could hardly detect the fortress.

A large metal ring connects to the lower part of the main body, enclosing the center.

The surface is covered with high-energy-density solar panels, which can absorb radiant energy as backup energy.

The back features Stark Industries' most advanced technology, including six large, high-efficiency plasma thrusters.

The entire fortress is at least three times larger, and from a distance it looks like a giant flying saucer with a futuristic design.

Inside the fortress, the large Ark Reactor was replaced as the energy supply device, thus solving the problem of enormous energy consumption.

The new anti-gravity device can eliminate the effects of Earth's gravity to the greatest extent, allowing the fortress to remain buoyant and in slow flight.

"Well, Lu, you carved words on the moon to intimidate those politicians for me, and I'll give you a brand new fortress in return!"

The two landed on the fortress's helipad, and Tony couldn't wait to show off.

"This makes me feel like I'm living in a floating city. Hmm, well done."

Looking at the enormous thing in front of her, Lu Yunmeng said with interest, "This is even more perfect than I imagined!"

"Yes, this is a small floating town with a diameter of 3500 meters."

Tony spread his arms wide, feeling the powerful wind pressure at high altitude, and excitedly began to introduce the topic.

"I divided the fortress into a living area and a working area. The living area is located in the center and has more than 14000 rest rooms, kitchens, toilets and other internal facilities."

"The air purification system can ensure a sufficient supply of oxygen, and the water molecule capture technology can extract moisture from the atmosphere and make it drinkable after special filtration."

"The exterior walls of each room are radiation-proof, impact-proof, and explosion-proof, while the interior walls are completely soundproof. No one will know what you do inside."

Tony winked and said with a wicked grin.

"In addition to the existing facilities, I have added many research labs, medical rooms, training rooms, and built-in hangars."

"It has 45 defensive cannons, 79 Vulcan high-speed interceptor cannons, and 128 missile launchers on the outside."

Tony continued to boast, his face practically screaming, "Come praise me!"

Lu Yunmeng's eyes twitched involuntarily. This firepower was enough to destroy a large city like New York!

The two quickly arrived at the massive metal door at the fortress entrance. Tony entered the password into the control panel, and then a cold, mechanical voice sounded from the communicator.

Welcome to Blackwatch Keep. Identifying you...

[Confirmed: Tony Stark, Chief Engineer of Blackwatch, the most popular Iron Man, and the most intelligent man.]

[The strongest force in the Blackwatch League, the highest commander of the Blackwatch League: Yunmeng.Lu.]

【I am the Red Queen, it's a pleasure to meet you all.】

Chapter 71 Space-Based Weapons

"Is this the Red Queen?" Lu Yunmeng asked in surprise, pointing to the lifelike virtual image.

She remembered that two years ago, Blackwatch's intelligent system was just a program like antivirus software, capable of handling relatively simple commands, and the rest of the work had to be done by Jarvis working himself to the bone.

And now, the Red Queen can actually speak?

And she's portrayed as a cold, aloof young woman. Uh, not a long-haired, red-dressed girl, thumbs down...

“That’s right, I’ve upgraded and optimized the Red Queen into a pseudo-artificial intelligence program, mainly responsible for maintaining the normal system management of the air fortress,” Tony explained with a beaming smile.

"She has the same ability as Jarvis, she knows how to ask questions."

"It's just that its intelligence is a little low, and it occasionally malfunctions or becomes unclear about tasks. I'm working on improving it, so it's not a big problem."

"The voice synthesis was specially designed by me; it's cool and alluring, which fits the positioning of this fortress."

"What's the saying in Chinese again? 'Exterminate the enemy without mercy, and hold your comrades tighter on the shoulder.'"

Lu Yunmeng just wants to complain: who taught you this kind of American-style translation?

They mean similar things, but their connotations are completely different!

Good friends can not only put their arms around each other's shoulders, they can also play Aruba...

"How about it? I think you'll like it." After entering the aerobics area, Tony took off his armor and proudly showed off.

He devoted a tremendous amount of energy to the entire Blackwatch Fortress project, designing its structure, personally overseeing the construction, and inspecting the materials. He had never been this meticulous when he was CEO!

"Not bad, sounds a bit like a female assassin, the kind who'll pull out a knife and stab someone the next second." Lu Yunmeng smiled and carefully observed her surroundings.

“That’s right, that’s exactly the effect I wanted! Lu, your analogy is very vivid! Haha!” Tony laughed exaggeratedly, his eyebrows dancing with excitement.

He hopes that his designs will be recognized by his friends and that he will receive praise and applause!

After the Red Queen was confirmed, the hatch opened automatically, revealing a high-tech passageway.

Shadow Guards, dressed in black, tight-fitting combat suits and wearing dragon-head shield armbands, stood neatly on both sides of the passageway.

The moment they saw Lu Yunmeng, they clenched their right fists and struck their left chests, their gazes resolute, cold, and ruthless, as they meticulously completed their mission.

Some of these former shadow guards of the Black Widow had witnessed Lu Yunmeng's powerful destruction of the Red House and were filled with admiration for her.

Some were Black Widow agents recalled from around the world, who had also seen Superwoman on television and in news reports.

They will remember this person who turned the tide, saved the day from collapse, and gave them freedom for the rest of their lives.

"Lu, to be honest, I'm a little jealous. They don't respect me like that at all. I'm going to complain to you. They actually flirted with me, their boss! It makes me feel very insecure!"

Tony, looking pained, solemnly recounted his complaint.

"I think you're enjoying it..." Lu Yunmeng was too lazy to complain. This playboy was worried about getting surrounded by women?

However, the Shadow Guards were indeed highly skilled, disciplined, and obeyed orders without question; they were truly well-trained.

I remember that the person in charge of training them was that little girl Yelena, right? Tony had previously mentioned that he had arranged for her to attend MIT.

"Alright, no need for such formalities, please dispense with the formalities." Lu Yunmeng said with a mischievous smile, waving to the welcoming shadow guards.

"Alright, ladies, don't treat your leader like a monkey. We're going inside for a tour now, you can all leave now~" Tony said playfully, bowing slightly and gesturing for them to proceed.

The shadow guards were very obedient; except for two who remained behind, the others quickly returned to their work area.

This gathering was simply because it was Supergirl's first inspection after the fortress expansion was completed, so they specially organized a simple welcoming ceremony.

The two entered the passage and walked for about 800 meters before arriving at the central control room of the fortress.

Along the way, every shadow guard who saw Lu Yunmeng showed an excited expression, as they had been feeling extremely frustrated for the past two years.

Tony is indeed a genius, but Iron Man's intimidation is far less than Supergirl's.

The fact that the government and the military dare to openly threaten Stark Industries speaks volumes about the disparity between them.

Lately, the Shadow Guardians have been extremely busy, not only maintaining the Black Watch's existing businesses but also dealing with all sorts of troubles at Stark Industries.

Their operations over the past two years have been outrageous, including infiltration, undercover work, wiretapping, and infiltration, as well as ambushes and kidnappings.

Fortunately, there are quite a few shadow guards, and apart from the high cost of living, there are no other problems, and they are basically able to maintain a normal life.

Inside the control room, Tony went to the console, brought up the virtual control panel, and then quickly tapped his fingers on it.

Before long, a three-dimensional 3D aerial fortress image appeared in the center of the room.

The new air fortress appears simple from the outside, like an alien spaceship, but its complexity is only revealed after seeing its internal structure.

"What is this?" Lu Yunmeng asked curiously, pointing to the image below the fortress.

The overall appearance of the fortress is very harmonious, mostly featuring a streamlined design with fewer sharp angles, but there is a rather prominent structural feature at the bottom of the fortress.

It looks a bit like a thruster, but considering the plasma thrusters mounted beneath the fortress's ring-shaped solar panels, the thruster is clearly redundant.

Lu Yunmeng didn't have a background in mechanical engineering, so even with a super brain, she wouldn't be able to figure it out in a short time.

"Well, actually, I took some factors into account and made some improvements to the bottom of the fortress, incorporating some ideas into it."

“Okay, actually I designed and equipped the fortress with a high-powered giant arc pulse cannon.” Tony stroked his mustache and explained without any concealment.

When he designed this thing, he referenced the energy circulation system of Iron Man armor, but it is not actually usable yet; it's just a showpiece.

"You mean something that works on the same principle as your palm cannon?" Lu Yunmeng seemed to understand a little, but still asked with doubt.

Sure enough, Tony once again pulled out some outrageous technology, shrinking the Arc Reactor and enlarging the Palm Cannon, as if he were just playing around.

"That's right, the enlarged version of the palm cannon can be used for propulsion and ensure the stability of the fortress."

"Most importantly, this device can release ultra-high temperature energy beams to strike the ground from a height of 2 meters."

"However, it cannot launch yet due to insufficient energy." Tony's fingers deftly manipulated the virtual keyboard, bringing up a more detailed structural diagram.

"You mean space-based weapons?" Lu Yunmeng's eyes lit up as she asked with great interest.

But soon, the light in his eyes dimmed considerably.

Space-based weapons refer to weapon platforms deployed in orbit outside a planet's outer space, primarily targeting all important enemy facilities on the planet's surface.

Depending on their energy output, space-based weapons can even attack facilities below sea level and underground.

It is a new concept weapon system for dealing with strategic targets in orbit and harmful targets in outer space.

This type of weapon primarily involves satellite space platforms orbiting the Earth firing lasers or physical nuclear bombs at the ground.

Once the command is received and attack mode is activated, the power of the space-based weapon will be unimaginable, easily destroying a city and making it impossible to defend against.

However, back on their home planet Earth, this new concept weapon is defined by scientists as science fiction, and at least in the short term, it cannot achieve that kind of world-destroying power.

It's not that the principle of construction is impossible, but rather that once it's manufactured, it simply doesn't possess that much power.

The most noticeable sensation when the ground is attacked by so-called space-based weapons is just being exposed to light, which is not as pleasant as the sunshine on a tropical beach.

Launching physical missiles is not even as effective as launching strategic weapons from nuclear submarines, and it is extremely costly, so there is no need to manufacture them for the time being.

"Hmm, it is indeed a space-based weapon, but its usage limit is very high, and its energy consumption is also enormous," Tony said casually.

"Interesting. I thought this kind of weapon only existed in theory." Lu Yunmeng thoughtfully examined the virtual images.

"That's true. Before I created it, it truly existed only in theory."
