"Hermione, your flame...Is Tony's life in danger?"

Chapter 34 Tony: As long as we can get there

Hermione shook her head and smiled:

"Don't worry, it won't happen. I'm not using dark magic like Fiendfyre. It's just a normal flame. It will go out on its own in a moment and won't hurt him."

Dark magic... Pepper breathed a sigh of relief at first, then realized that she seemed to have heard something extraordinary and didn't dare to think about it any further.

Although it was the first time that Pepper saw Hermione so irritable, she was not afraid. Instead, there was more touching in her eyes when she looked at her.

Unexpectedly, the person who understood her the most and stood up for her was this child.

"Tony...sigh..."

Pepper sighed.

Hermione also shook her head secretly.

There's no way around it, this is the hardship that friends and relatives of superheroes have to endure.

After all, Pepper is the only person in Marvel who has no other thoughts and is truly kind to her. She doesn't want her to be tortured by Tony in this state every day, so she still intervenes, hoping that Tony can realize the problem sooner.

Thinking of this, Hermione chuckled and leaned in to whisper, "Sister Pepper, are you still thinking about this narcissist?"

"Soo, do you like him?"

The secret was revealed so bluntly that Pepper's heart skipped a beat.

Seeing Hermione's teasing smile, he finally reacted, glared at her, and said unhappily: "You are such a brat, you are teasing adults at such a young age."

Even so, Pepper couldn't help but blush.

Hermione rolled her eyes and muttered, "As if no one could tell, you're the only one in this building who thinks you're well hidden..."

Pepper was even more at a loss.

After a long moment, she looked at Hermione again.

"Do you think what we just said was too harsh?"

Hermione knew she was referring to the murder of Ethan, so she shook her head slightly and said, "No."

"why?"

Seeing Hermione's certainty, Pepper became curious.

"For a person like him, only drastic measures can cure him. Otherwise, if we wait for him to slowly change, who knows how long it will take."

Hermione said calmly: "Don't worry, he will be fine, and Sister Pepper, have you forgotten?"

Having said that, Hermione looked up at Pepper and said word by word:

“I have seen the future.”

……

at night.

Tony returned home in a bored mood and flopped on the big sofa. He leaned against the backrest and looked up at the ceiling of the mansion that was two or three stories high.

What happened today gave him a very strong shock.

It's not that he doesn't understand Little Pepper's feelings, and he also knows that she is thinking about his safety.

In the past, he indulged in wine, women and cover girls, deliberately avoiding his true feelings, but today, Hermione pointed them out rudely and he could no longer escape.

At this moment, Tony realized how much Pepper had silently given behind him, but he did not cherish her, let her down, and even put her in danger. These were none of her business.

I am indeed a hopeless bastard.

And Pepper was right to worry, he also noticed the self-destructive tendencies deep in his heart after the kidnapping.

But every time Tony thought of Ethan's dying look to save him, or the people killed by his weapon, his heart ached and he always wanted to atone for his sins with his life. That's why he developed battle suits day and night, eliminating terrorists without stopping for a moment, completely disregarding life and death, until one day he really died, as if only in this way could the guilt be alleviated.

"Find a chance to apologize."

Having made a decision in his heart, Tony stood up and wiped his face.

However, the next second, his eyes suddenly widened and he fell straight to the ground.

A familiar face appeared before his eyes.

……

"Relax, Tony."

Obadiah put away the sonic paralyzer and said slowly, "This thing is quite practical, isn't it? It's a pity that the government has not approved mass production."

"When I ordered the hunt for you," he said in a relaxed tone, pulling out an extractor from his pocket, "I was still worried about killing a goose that laid golden eggs."

Tony stared at Obadiah in disbelief when he heard this.

He never expected that the uncle he always respected was actually a traitor in Stark Group and the one who really wanted to kill him!

Obadiah aimed the extractor at the microreactor in Tony's chest and pulled it out.

"But I didn't expect that you were not destined to die, because you still had to lay the last golden egg for me."

Holding up the fist-sized micro-reactor and looking at the azure light, Obadiah's eyes flashed with obsession.

As the reactor left the body, Tony trembled all over and a look of pain appeared on his face.

After a long period of no response, Obadiah suddenly slapped his forehead, put away the reactor, and said with a smile: "I forgot that you can no longer speak. It was not a good decision for you to ask Pepper to find evidence of my private sale of weapons... She has strong business skills, and I wanted to keep her."

Hearing this, Tony's expression became agitated, veins bulged, and his eyes were filled with endless regret.

Seeing Tony lingering on, Obadiah shook his head and turned away.

After more than ten minutes, Tony finally regained his ability to move.

But because the magnetic force of the reactor had been lost for a long time, the tiny shrapnel in his chest was penetrating into his heart in large quantities. He couldn't even stand up and could only crawl out little by little.

He knew that if he didn't replace the reactor with a new one, he would be dead once the shrapnel penetrated his heart completely.

Fortunately, Obadiah did not expect that the simple reactor made in the cave was still in the storage room, which should be able to be used.

Thinking of Hermione's words during the day and Pepper's disappointed eyes, Tony had never wanted to survive so much.

The most important thing is that Pepper is in danger and he has to save her!

After climbing into the storage room with difficulty, Tony saw the reactor on the shelf and stretched out his hand desperately to grab it.

As long as we can get there, as long as we can get there...

However, at this moment, his body finally reached its limit. All his strength seemed to be drained away in an instant. He lay prone on the ground, and could only look at the reactor so close to him, feeling his life slipping away bit by bit.

Just when he was about to despair, a voice suddenly came to his ear.

"Yo, need some help?"

……

Ah Lao Ba midnight snack... Ah Lao Ba midnight snack...

Seeing that Tony was about to die, Hermione shook her head, slowly came to his side on her flying broom, and chuckled:

"Yo, need some help?"

This voice, which usually made him angry and always made him want to argue, at this moment, sounded like heavenly music to Tony's heart.

"Leviosa!"

With a wave of the magic wand, the reactor automatically floated up, aimed at the big hole in Tony's chest, and inserted it.

The reactor lit up automatically, and a moment later Tony sat up suddenly, gasping for air.

It seems to be alive.

What a close call... Tony secretly rejoiced in his heart. He didn't have time to thank Hermione slowly or ask why she was here. He immediately said:

"Hermione, the one who wants to kill me is Obadiah, he has already found out, Pepper is in danger, I have to put on my battle suit now, please go save her first!"

"I know I was wrong, but now, I can only ask you for help!"

Chapter 35 Iron Man VS Iron Overlord

"Frog, I didn't expect to hear an apology from you. It's really a strange thing."

Hermione looked surprised.

Tony looked anxious. "If you want to hear it, I'll tell you ten times a day, but it's really too late now!"

Hermione waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I care about Sister Pepper more than you do. She is now followed by people from SHIELD, so she is relatively safe for now."

After a pause, she continued:

"After Sister Pepper found out about Obadiah's plot, she became worried about you, so she asked me to come and check on you. I didn't expect to see you in such a state of disgrace as soon as I arrived. I should have recorded it earlier, hahahaha!"

This damn girl... Tony's face froze, but he was relieved.

I'm glad Pepper is okay.

"In that case, I'm going to settle the score with Obadiah right now!" Tony's eyes flashed coldly.

Arriving at the basement, Tony quickly put on his battle suit with the help of Jarvis.

Hermione nodded. She had to admit that this gold and red iron suit looked really handsome no matter how she looked at it.

"Are you sure you don't need help?"

Hermione confirmed as she looked at Tony, who was only wearing his face.

"Children should not get involved in a fight between adults. You should go back to your sister Pepper and help take care of her."

Tony, wearing the Iron Man suit, has a gleam of confidence in his eyes.

Hermione pouted.

The sky clears up, the rain stops, and you feel you are fine again.

I don’t know who was cosplaying Dior just now.

"Well, be careful and don't get beaten up. Then call me for help."

Hermione jumped on her broom and sped off.

This damn kid...

Looking at Hermione's back, Tony's eyes twitched.

Every time I talk to her, I feel like I'm pissed off.

I don't know why she is so nice to Pepper, but so sharp-tongued to him.

If Hermione knew this idea, she would definitely spit in his face on the spot.

Pepper is a beautiful sister with tolerance. You are a weird uncle. You want me to be good to you? What are you dreaming of!

……

Late at night, loud noises and explosions were heard in the night sky of New York.

Accompanied by the sound of fire and steel colliding, the citizens saw from afar two humanoid mechas, one large and one small, fighting fiercely on the street.

Pepper, Coulson and others looked at the flames rising into the sky from afar, feeling a little worried.

They already knew about Obadiah's conspiracy and that he had built an iron monster that was even bigger than Tony's iron suit.

Because they were too far away, they couldn't see the situation on the scene, and no one knew how the battle was going.

The intensity of the battle could only be inferred from the sound.

"Tony, please don't be in any trouble..." Pepper muttered to herself.

Coulson was also helpless. It was not that SHIELD was incapable of dealing with this iron behemoth, but considering that it was located in the city and there were too many civilians around, some methods could not be used at all. They could only wait for good news from Tony.

"Sister Pepper, I'm back!"

Hermione's voice sounded from behind.

Pepper's face lit up with joy and she ran towards Hermione in two or three steps.

Coulson took a step forward and said with a smile, "Miss Wizard, we meet again."
