It's late at night, and the music has ended and everyone has dispersed.
Tony Stark was wandering alone in his old studio, being blown by the evening breeze, which made him feel a little lonely. This is not Tony Stark in his usual state, and this is not his usual studio, at least it didn't have the big open hole on the side. New York, along with Stark Tower, is destined to be abandoned, and a large number of equipment will be dismantled, including Stark Industries' iconic fusion reactor.
In the future, nothing will remain here except landscape lighting.
"Jarvis", he called the artificial intelligence butler. "Sir." "Open it for me." The passage to the lower level opened in front of him, and Tony strolled down the stairs. Lights come on with every step, illuminating the studio below.
Under the clear light, the folds of the steel battle clothes of all ages placed in the display window glowed! Tony came to the cabinet containing the Mark III and gently touched the glass in front of the suit with his fingers. When the novelty wore off, Tony truly understood that he was actually just a big kid. Compared to the killing machine "Infinite Justice" Gundam, what he liked most were these "gaudy" suits.
Although the steel suit is not as powerful as Gundam, it is undoubtedly more stylish and cool in appearance. This is what Stark really wants in his heart. Gundam can only destroy enemies on the battlefield, but the steel suit allows him to dance gracefully on the stage of the metropolis. This is the difference! Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, he will officially seal the "Infinite Justice" Gundam and put on the steel suit again under the name "Iron Man".
As for the "Infinite Justice" Gundam, unless an invincible enemy appears again in the Marvel world, this possibility is very high.
"What is this?" Tony stopped and picked up a chip from the workbench. This place has been cleaned up, so the chip placed on the empty workbench looks particularly conspicuous. "It looks like 076, but I never use this kind of chip. Where does this come from? Jarvis, do you know?"
"There is no monitoring or purchase record, and no similar model of chip has been found, sir." Jarvis replied.
Tony turned the chip over and over, and seemed to understand something.
Not only Tony, but also major countries, major laboratories, famous scientists, technology companies, etc. on the planet have all received similar chips one after another. Some of the chips store holographic technology, some store information about battery technology reforms, and some are imaging innovations. The cosmic engines are all civilian technologies widely used by mainstream civilizations in the current galaxy.
Companies or individuals who receive technology have different methods of handling it. Some choose to hand it over to the state, some hide it and use it as "gold fingers", and some simply choose to jointly start a business with large companies. No matter what, there is a boom. The technological wave is sweeping the world unstoppably.
A great man once said, "If you fall behind, you will be beaten."
Now, the earth that has obtained the ticket will surely be able to get rid of its backwardness and enter the new century with its head held high. This is Dawn's last gift to this world.
"The Mona people and the Mona gods", "How to defeat the main god Great Elona", "The immigration problem of the Dawn".
The three major problems plaguing the Dawn were placed on three sides of the triangular prism of the holographic screen, with more detailed branches and information listed below. Among them, the holographic photo of the adult version of Alona is particularly eye-catching. Nana was biting her handkerchief in front of the photo. By the way, because of Lu Yuan's fruitful harvest in the previous worlds, Nana was "younger" by a few years.
Xiaolongbao transforms into Wangzai steamed buns.
"There are internal and external troubles," Lu Yuan complained irresponsibly. Looking at him looking lazy and about to fall asleep, he was just being lazy.
"You are the captain!", "Those who have lost have no right to be nagging!", "Captain, please take responsibility!", "It's all the captain's fault!" Lao Lu, who made sarcastic remarks, was immediately criticized by everyone.
"What are you talking about?" Lao Lu suddenly burst into flames! "Who says it's all my fault?" He pointed at the catalyst and said, "You were secretly downloading the photos of Big Elona just now, it's quite desktop, right?!"
Being exposed all at once, Catalyst blushed for the first time
"Okay, you are a fan of Yulip. Let's not care about your IQ." Lu Yuan turned his attention to Ms. Liming, "If you hadn't always been like an old hen, protecting those immigrants under your wings. , I can make them fly! Bullshit! Believe it or not, if you give me the bottom-level permissions of the spaceship now, I can make this immigration problem disappear completely tomorrow! Do you dare to give it?!"
"It's dead." Ms. Li Ming's image distorted and disappeared from the conference room.
"And you're a money-hungry guy!" Lu Yuan turned around and started to criticize Zhao Min, "Did you sell all the junk left in several worlds to the Marvel Universe? Aren't you afraid of causing trouble? Still? It is said that four of the production lines for the Reimu toy were scrapped? How many did you sell? Will there be an economic crisis in the Marvel world when you leave?"
"You're so heartless, I don't make money just for you!" Zhao Min argued with a red face, but her tone was obviously guilty. She was really tough on the money this time, and sold all the old stuff at the bottom of Dawn's box! An economic crisis is impossible, but a period of economic chaos is inevitable.
"And you guys! Don't run!"
If you don't run away, why don't you stay and get sprayed? You would be a fool not to run, and the conference room suddenly dispersed. After a while, the empty conference hall was filled with only the three major issues still spinning and a few flying pieces of paper.
"Three major questions" Lu Yuan put his feet up on the table and fell into deep thought.
Mass Effect world, Star Alliance home planet Earth, a small town in the Hubei region.
After the wave of urbanization, such modern towns began to bloom all over China. Small towns usually have a population of less than 100,000, have complete public facilities, and are far away from main traffic roads. Such small towns have undergone a considerable degree of scenery transformation, allowing the town to stand between the mountains and jungles, with a beautiful living environment and landscape.
Most affairs in the town are managed by a super, and the town's "three-person council" has the final veto power. Many people feel that it is terrifying to be "ruled" by computers. In fact, a computer that handles affairs completely in accordance with the law and public norms is a blessing for all ordinary people because it is fair.
Do you want a selfless "machine" or a judge who may bend the law based on feelings? The answer is self-evident. People who oppose machines actually object to "my privileges will be taken away."
Jingshan Town is such a typical small town. Due to the recent impact of the "second wave of galactic development", the town has once again lost a large number of people and is in urgent need of new immigrants to replenish it. Therefore, when Wang Jiawei, who had escaped from the Dawn and remained anonymous, arrived here, he was easily accepted by the town and settled down.
The house you can get after signing is equivalent to an unsecured and interest-free loan. You can have full property rights after living for a certain period of time. Four temporary employment contracts and a free training class. Jingshan Town fully demonstrated her enthusiasm to Wang Jiawei. However, the enthusiasm of Jingshan Town will only make him feel panic because Wang Jiawei knows very well that the Dawn will not let any traitor go!
Not only because of the defection itself, but also because once the Dawn acquiesces to his departure, it is equivalent to acknowledging the legality of his departure, and then the entire immigrant class on the ship will collapse! Whether to participate in the next cosmic decisive battle with the Mona people, or to live peacefully in a high-tech civilization like Star Alliance, this is a multiple-choice question that everyone will do.
Isn't it?
The sudden ringing of the doorbell made Wang Jiawei shiver.
"You don't look well?" He mustered up the courage several times to open the door, but what he saw was an enthusiastic face. "Welcome, young man, the town needs great guys like you. Don't worry, you will like it here. I am your neighbor. Welcome to Jingshan! If you need anything, knock on my door anytime. You are also welcome. Come and be a guest at home.”
"Thank you! It's really too troublesome for you. Yes, I promise I won't be polite. Yes, as long as I have time, thank you! Thank you!"
Wang Jiawei used almost all his acting skills to deal with the enthusiastic neighbor. When his neighbor turned away, he nearly collapsed on the porch. But thankfully it's just overzealous neighbors and not the Dawn's law enforcement force Does the Dawn have a law enforcement force? He smiled self-deprecatingly, took the box of Huangshigang cakes given by his neighbor, and closed the door.
"It seems that you get along well with your neighbors." A man's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Bump!" The box containing Huangshigang cakes slipped from Wang Jiawei's hand and broke into several pieces on the floor. The golden snack rolled on the ground and stopped next to a pair of military boots. A man with a Chinese character in military uniform entered his room at some point and sat on the sofa in the living room facing the door.
"Sir Ai, I thought the Dawn would send someone to deal with me, but I didn't expect it would be you." Wang Jiawei said with a sad smile. Seeing Ai Guoliang, he immediately gave up hope of continuing to abscond. Ai Guoliang is one of the deputy commanders of the Marine Corps. He has 800 heavy mechas under his command! This is the power that can destroy a planet, not to mention he knows how powerful Ai Guoliang is.
Not to mention, the Dawn force is now vaguely the emperor of all the major races in the galaxy. If you want to get information about certain people, don't be too simple. You have nowhere to escape!
"Why are you leaving?" Ai Guoliang has a standard face with Chinese characters, and he has always been a soldier, so even his conversation sounds like an interrogation. Ai Guoliang took out an electronic board and put it in front of Wang Jiawei, "This agreement was agreed to by all of us at the beginning. It also says that your signature is about to defeat the Mona people and rebuild our homeland. You choose at this time Leave, why? I need an explanation."
"Because I'm tired! Sir!" Wang Jiawei sat down with his head in his hands, and said with a broken voice. "It was clearly agreed that it would be three years, but three years later and three years later, and three years later and three years later, sir, I have been killed twice! I participated in almost all the battles of the Dawn! I am very tired, don't I have a choice? Right to stop?”
"You can quit, but not here." Ai Guoliang pointed to his beautiful house, "You should understand that you do not belong to this world, you are an earthling from another universe! Except for the soul, even the one you are using now The prosthetic bodies all belong to Dawn. If you want to stop, the captain will give you two options: You can choose to sleep in the dormant warehouse until world peace. At that time, we will wake you up and build a home with us or you can choose Return to the Earth of our world, that is your true home.”
"Go to his real hometown! Go to his construction home!" Wang Jiawei burst out after hearing Ai Guoliang's words. "Even if we find a new planet, is that my home? What's there? A mass speedster? Travel around the galaxy? Or the wireless world outside the window? Nothing! Nothing! We fight to the death against the Monas, What you end up with is a desolate planet!
By then, whatever we need, we have to build it bit by bit from the Stone Age. Maybe when I am old and dying, I will have interstellar communication, so that I can say, Hello, damn the earth! !
And I'm just a soldier, sir! Sir, you have four doctorates. Thirty years from now, maybe you can run for president of the world. But what can I do? I'm just a soldier, I just want to live a better life."
After the outburst, Wang Jiawei slumped down on the sofa. After being silent for a while, he said without raising his head, "I know what I said sounds ugly. Just shoot. Sir, I can't be as selfless as the captain. I choose to give up. Don't forget to inform me." Ms. Dawn cut off the power to my hibernation chamber.
That's it. "
Wang Jiawei closed his eyes. Is the captain selfless? What gives you such an illusion? Ai Guoliang's mouth twitched, and he finally restrained himself from complaining.
"Then that's it. Goodbye, Wang Jiawei!" Ai Guoliang took out a pistol and put it against Wang Jiawei's temple, and pulled the trigger without hesitation! The bullet passed through Wang Jiawei's head, and the evaporated blood gave the room a hint of blood. "I love your movies."
Wang Jiawei's body was leaning quietly on the sofa, as if he was asleep.
Ai Guoliang stood up and strode out the door.
"Ding dong ding dong"
"Dang! Dang!"
"Coming! Damn it, I'm coming! Ugh!" Being woken up by the doorbell and banging on the door, Wang Jiawei sat up in a panic, but suddenly hit the top of his head. After he hurriedly opened the lid above his head, another nauseating feeling made him lie down on the "bedside" and vomited wildly.
"Hey!" The knocking on the door rang again, and his new neighbor's voice shouted outside, "Wang Jia, are you there? I saw you didn't turn on the light. What happened? If you need help, I can Call the police for you."
"No! I'm fine! Thank you! Ahem, I just overslept!" Wang Jiawei said quickly. He felt like he had vomited out a bucket of water, and even his lungs were coughing out water. How could the neighbors see this situation?
"Really?" The neighbor was skeptical.
"Really! I promise! Oh, just give me a few minutes. I'll pack up and go visit you."
"Okay." Even though the neighbor didn't really believe it, as long as Wang Jiawei was okay, the rest was personal and he didn't intend to interfere. Hearing his neighbor's footsteps walking away, Wang Jiawei finally breathed a sigh of relief and fell back into the "bathtub".
"Turn on the lights!" he said, and the lights in the room flickered on.
Just as Wang Jiawei thought, he was lying in a dormant chamber filled with nutrient solution. And this dormant warehouse, which still bears the logo of the "Dawn" immigration ship, is now placed in the small house in Jingshan Town that he just obtained. Wang Jiawei felt his mind was in confusion. He clearly remembered that he was shot in the head by Chief Ai Guoliang! Even if he is resurrected, it will be in the Dawn. What is this scene now?
The "body" on the sofa has disappeared. Also disappearing were his personal armor, weapons, and multi-purpose tools. It can be said that except for the dormant chamber, all related items with the Dawn mark were "recycled".
Looking at the emerald-green nutrient solution spitting out everywhere on the ground outside the dormant chamber, Wang Jiawei finally confirmed that the body he was using now was his own body! In other words, although the Dawn took everything from him, it left his original body behind?
"What is that?" Wang Jiawei finally calmed down and found that in addition to the dormant compartment, there was an extra piece of paper with a bank chip on it. What is stored in the bank's chip should be his deposits over the years, so what is the content on the paper?
Wang Jiawei picked up the piece of paper and held it to the light. It was his death notice.
Wang Jiawei is dead.
: Why do some people feel that the turning point is abrupt? The sixteen chapters of Secret War all hint that there is an undiscovered hidden thread to be continued.
