Potts...disappeared!
In just a brief moment, not even a second, this terrifying angel statue appeared with endless despair and fear, and snatched Potts away from him!
"Poots..."
Tony felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. His brain buzzed for an instant and went blank. It seemed a bit unbelievable. He stretched out his hand and touched the air, but what he felt was nothingness.
The place where the hideous angel statue was clasped with its hands was exactly where Potts had been standing before, and now there was no one there.
There is still a trace of perfume in the air, which smells a bit like some kind of fruit, mixed with a hint of sweetness and slightly sourness. This is Potts' favorite smell, and it is also his birthday gift to Potts, but only The familiar figure was missing.
Until this moment.
Only then did he truly accept the reality that Potts had been taken away by the angel statue.
“Ahhhhh——”
At this moment, Tony let out a hysterical roar, and the spiritual pressure around him was like a surging tide, constantly bombarding the surrounding air, causing endless waves of rage to spread.
An uncontrollable anger was clearly visible in those bloodshot pupils. His face became twisted and ferocious due to the extreme anger and pain, and green and black blood vessels burst out on his neck, which looked very dense. horrible.
Anger was boiling in his chest, like a boiler with overpressure, which could explode at any time and level everything around him!
I don't know if it was an illusion, but this ferocious-faced angel statue seemed to have a hint of mockery in its pupils, as if it was mocking his incompetent rage.
"Jarvis..."
Tony opened his eyes angrily, the black veins popping up on his forehead were pulsating with his breathing, and his cheeks were trembling faintly: "Report what just happened, I want to know everything!"
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Stark." Jarvis said in a low tone: "There was an unknown electromagnetic wave just now, which caused the drone to temporarily malfunction. I can't detect the statue here."
Influence of electromagnetic waves, drone malfunction...
Tony clenched his fists, secretly hating himself for being careless. He should have expected this.
Irene once described this incident in her book. The angel statue affected the circuit, causing the lights in the living room to temporarily fail, causing everyone to lose sight, and thus taking the opportunity to make one of them disappear.
But because of his arrogance, he forgot this most important tip, which indirectly contributed to Potts' disappearance.
"I will save you, Potts!"
Tony took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, not to be affected by his thoughts. The most important thing at the moment was to keep himself safe.
Even in such an angry situation, Tony's brain remained calm and he had not forgotten the most important rule, which is to never blink.
Maybe this is genius.
No matter how disadvantaged he is, he can always remain calm at critical moments, even in the most angry situations.
Tony deeply understood one thing, that is, he was the last, the only hope to save Potts. If even he himself was taken away by the angels, Potts would really have no chance of survival.
"Think carefully... there must be a flaw, and I will definitely be able to find your weaknesses. Come on... you are Tony Stark!" Tony encouraged himself while using his brain to start racing. operation.
First of all, the known information is that people taken away by angels will not die, but will return to a certain timeline in the past. This can be confirmed by Eileen.
Although it is still unclear why the angel statue did this, it at least revealed to him the news that Potts is not dead yet, but that in a certain timeline, it is possible to bring her back.
Secondly, the angel statue itself is by no means a stone sculpture, but an unknown creature. They can affect the material universe, so electronic instruments and equipment are unreliable.
And the most important point is that the existence form of the angel statue is similar to 'Schrödinger's cat' or the 'double slit interference' experiment. As long as the act of [observation] is used, the statue can be caused to enter a quantum collapse state and return to the state. It becomes an immovable stone statue.
Once the [Observation] disappears, the stone statue will instantly return to its original form, move at an unimaginable speed, and throw the nearest person into the past time and space.
"I've thought of a way..."
Tony raised his head, stared at the ferocious statue in front of him with suppressed anger, and said coldly: "As long as you are kept under observation, you can only be a statue."
The stone statue stood silently on the spot, and there seemed to be an inexplicable sarcasm on that hideous angel's face, as if it was mocking Tony's blind arrogance.
But whether he is blindly confident or not will be revealed later.
Tony silently checked the time in his mind, and then blinked alternately from left to right, ensuring that he was in an 'observation' state at all times to prevent the angel statue from moving again.
As time went by, one person and one statue kept looking at each other 'affectionately'. The lights in the vault were unstable, flickering from time to time, and seemed to be extinguished at any time.
But unfortunately, Tony had already anticipated this, and directly used his own spiritual power to turn into a torch, illuminating a five-meter radius around him, completely eliminating the possibility of his vision being blocked.
And this ferocious angel statue, facing Tony's absolute defense, seemed to have no choice but to let the stalemate continue.
Soon, the stalemate was broken!
Under Jarvis's operation, the entire Citibank was forcibly evacuated, all nearby intruders were expelled, and...a basket of snakes was flown in!
Yes, you heard it right!
This is Tony's magic weapon to turn defeat into victory. He will use this basket full of snakes to seal this terrifying angel statue monster!
Snakes are creatures without active eyelids, so this animal cannot blink. And unlike instruments that are prone to malfunction and power outage, angel statues cannot affect creatures. This is the method of restraint that Tony thought of!
"It's over, angel!"
Tony's eyes glowed with a cold light, and he slowly raised a finger: "I have seen through your trick, checkmate (general)!"
"One of the Binding Paths: Sai!"
"The Fourth Way of Binding: This Rope!"
The two binding paths have different goals.
The targets of Sai's release are these snakes, forcing their heads to face the statue, watching the angel statue from all directions, and firmly sealing it in the quantum collapse state.
The target of this rope is the statue. After tying it, it is forcibly fixed in place to ensure that no other moths will appear.
But these are not enough...
Tony thought more deeply to prevent outsiders from breaking into this place, so he released the third binding path, namely: "Twenty-six of the binding path: Curved Light!"
By twisting and refracting light, the object is hidden, so even if someone breaks in, it is impossible to find the statue!
The angel has been sealed by him!
What Tony plans to do next is to look for clues left by Eileen, because it is impossible for her to deliberately place such a statue here for no reason.
Moreover, the statue had been sealed for nearly a hundred years, and there was no problem. It was obvious that someone had tampered with it. Tony returned to the locker immediately and found the clue.
The reason why the statue was sealed was because there was a very dim eyeball-shaped incantation carved on the door inside the locker.
And Tony also made a new discovery, that is, at the bottom of the locker, there was a broken sleeve of the Death Domination suit.
"A piece of sleeve..."
Tony frowned, reached out to pick up the broken sleeve, carefully felt the remaining spiritual pressure on it, and suddenly showed a surprised look on his face: "This spiritual pressure... is actually Lord?!"
