The group of people quickly walked into the living room of Tony's house. Apart from anything else, the place was quite spacious.
After Peibo understood that the visiting people did not mean any harm, he also put away his serious expression.
This woman is not the kind who only cries when danger comes. This woman's strength is the kind that ranks first even in this world where superheroes are numerous.
"Tell me, what's the reason why you came to see me? I don't believe you just came to visit me."
Tony lay directly on the sofa, looking flabby.
Everything that happened before was also a big burden on his brain, and it was good to take a little rest at this time.
"Then let me be frank, we know about the previous battle that took place in New York through military information. Of course, we also know what kind of difficulties you encountered at that time.
So we are here to seek cooperation! "
General Ross naturally took over the voice of his team at this time.
In terms of age, he is the oldest member of the giant family. In terms of status, a general has more authority than a doctor or a general's daughter.
Furthermore, he is the father of the female red giant and Banner's father-in-law.
It is natural for him to be the representative in negotiations at this time.
"Cooperation? What kind of cooperation? If you are still interested in my steel suit, then I will have no choice but to kick you out.
Although I also know that, let alone your family of monsters, I might not be able to defeat that one over there if he fights me alone.
But if you think that force and coercion can be effective, you are totally wrong. "
Tony rubbed his eyes, and although his words were not very polite, he did not mean to give in at all.
To put it bluntly, if Tony breaks the pot, he can cause a disaster that is enough to overturn the world.
Although the suit with the will of the Cybermen was still scattered, as long as he gave a command, that suit would become a Cyberman.
Judging from the power currently available on the earth, the Cybermen can transform most ordinary people on the earth into Cybermen before those super-sized guys take action.
This kind of guy who originally made Tony very annoying, even disgusted, has now become Tony's last card.
"I know, so our goal is not your suit, but your talent in weapon development!
Of course, this world may need powerful heroes like you, but you guys are not the ones who can fight.
My men have enough elite troops and soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles, but they seem particularly powerless when facing me now and the demons that may appear at any time.
When disaster strikes, we soldiers can only stay on the periphery of the battlefield and pray that heroes like you can win?
Tony, we need you! Not because you are Iron Man! But because you are Tony Stark!
You can arm us so that the army is qualified to fight those demons when danger comes! Instead of letting us sit around a desk and watch that ignorant bastard press the launch button of a nuclear bomb! "
General Ross made an impassioned speech, and the courage of a veteran soldier made his words full of persuasion at this time.
Even Tony was a little shaken.
The power of the army cannot be ignored, but Tony still has doubts about it.
The most important point is whose orders does the so-called "military" obey?
"How do you guarantee that the army will not listen to the commands of those guys who know nothing? Or do you just want me to help equip your men?
You and I both know that this is impossible.
Those superior guys will not execute this as a plan to defend humanity, but will rob the army like hyenas.
And neither you nor I are qualified to support the army. When we have rights, when are those guys not wielding a noose in their hands? "
When Tony said this, he simply closed his eyes.
The idea is not bad, but the time is far from mature.
Perhaps human civilization can work together after the disaster, but before the pain is experienced, those guys will not unify so easily.
"I can't guarantee the entire army! But I can guarantee that I will firmly control the elite team! I will draw the most elite warriors from the army and make them a force we can rely on!
I didn't go to that bastard Nick Fury to discuss this matter, I think you will understand what I mean! "
General Ross was so excited that he almost spit out his saliva.
An elite squad?
This idea seems to be a good one. The status of General Ross and the Stark Group is enough to retain such a private land in the hands of those dirty politicians.
And Tony still doesn't have a good impression of SHIELD, even after knowing that his father is the veteran of SHIELD.
S.H.I.E.L.D. is not one man's force, which means its personnel are diverse.
Not long ago, Rumlow led Steve and the others into a fight because of Hydra. Even if Nick Fury stepped forward and promised that he had completed the elimination of Hydra, Tony would not feel like this. The Shield is still the Shield of Humanity.
“Honestly, I was somewhat tempted by this idea. Originally, I had a better idea.
For example, create a mechanical army and let them replace your soldiers to maintain the security of the world.
But something happened not long ago that made me give up the idea. "
Tony closed his eyes and picked up the wine glass from the table and took a slow sip.
"Many of the technologies I master are localized based on those alien technologies. Of course, there is no problem if you say they are copycats.
But after I was put in a coffin by the suit that I inspected many times, I realized the dangers in those technologies.
What's more serious is that I can't determine which part of these technologies the danger comes from. "
Tony finally expressed his inner worries, perhaps because there was a doctor in front of him who could understand what he meant.
Under normal circumstances, he would not talk to a general about technical matters.
One by one, these generals would only ask, "How much does it cost? How many people are needed? When can the deployment be completed?" These guys did not intend to take such risks at all. Instead, they would only let Tony, the inventor, bear those possibilities. Responsibility.
"But weapons are different. Technological weapons that do not affect human will can be used."
Banna said hesitantly.
He was right. It was just a gun in the hands of a soldier. Even if it occasionally misfired, most of the time those soldiers would not be stupid enough to use their eyes to see what was inside the barrel.
"But demons are good at deceiving people. What will we do when those soldiers use the weapons I gave them to target us?"
Tony added, shaking his head.
The fact that his own skills hurt him was a big blow to him. Although he was very firm in the face of Reid's doubts, there was no value at all compared to the real danger.
"Perhaps you can help the superheroes get better weapons. Also, regarding your mechanical army, I think I can probably help."
Banner was a little timid when he spoke, and it seemed that the traces left by the time when he and Hulk used the same body were far from being eliminated.
"Banner, you go to the blacksmith shop now, and then ask the guy next to you to open the door in the basement, and then you can complete the arming.
This is something that barbarians can take out casually. Why do you think I can take out that level of equipment in a short time? "
Tony finally opened his eyes and looked at Dr. Banner with a teasing look.
Is this a sign of weakness?
Banner looked at Tony's teasing eyes and shook the thought out of his head.
Tony was proud, and what he said made Banner feel that he must have figured out something.
"I know you are a genius, so I think you can do it. It's like there are some things that savages don't understand. There won't be people in this world who are good at everything."
Banner's words were somewhat flattering to Tony.
"That's not wrong. Then Rhodes, do me a favor! Come with me now!"
Tony stood up directly and patted Colonel Rhodes on the shoulder. Then he walked to his laboratory.
"By the way, General Ross, Dr. Banner, and... Hulk over there, I want to ask you to stop twisting my wine cabinet like a Rubik's Cube. It's electric, not manual.
Where did I say that? By the way, and Ms. Betty Rose, please wait a moment and get ready for some eye-opening fun! "
Tony's words gave up the intention of General Ross and Banner to follow, and they sat back on the sofa again.
It seemed as if Tony had something good before, and it was just the right time to bring it out now.
"Hulk, can you sit next to me? If you want a toy, I'll find you a tank later."
Ms. Betty Ross spoke to Hulk in a coaxing tone, and then looked at her father for help.
"Okay, it's just a tank."
General Ross gave the answer somewhat reluctantly.
A tank? That stuff is so expensive!
He didn't intend to use brand new tanks as toys for Hulk, but it seemed that the tanks that had been smashed during the encirclement and suppression of Hulk hadn't had time to deal with them, so it seemed that there would be no problem in taking out a few to give Hulk a brush.
"Hulk loves this cabinet!"
Hulk roared loudly, and then broke the wine cabinet back and forth.
"Hulk! Obey!"
The red skin on Ms. Betty Ross's body flashed away as she spoke.
Hulk walked over a little aggrievedly and sat directly next to Betty Rose. The sofa made an overwhelming sound.
"I feel like Hulk isn't as innocent as he seems."
Banner said with a wry smile.
After actually separating from Hulk, he noticed many of Hulk's little thoughts.
Although the two people no longer need to compete for the right to use the body, the spiritual connection has not been severed. He vaguely felt that Hulk's wisdom was growing rapidly.
"He's still a kid."
Betty Rose said this to Banner. Very much like a mother who dotes on her children.
Speaking of which, after Betty completely mastered the postures of the Harpy and the Red Giant, she no longer looked at the Hulk with as much fear as she did a long time ago.
"I've never been as worried about gains and losses as I am now. I always feel like I've lost something by separating me from Hulk."
Banner said what he felt in his heart, a little squirming when he spoke.
"If you could correctly understand Hulk's will from the beginning and teach him well, I wouldn't have sent an army to get this power from you.
Well now, Hulk seems to be more obedient than you! "
General Ross said angrily, but the more he said this, the less confident he was.
In the final analysis, Hulk's uncooperation has his own reasons.
If he hadn't adopted the military's "cooperate or die" attitude from the beginning, things wouldn't have developed to the extent they did later.
"Isn't this your steel suit? Is this a surprise? Or will I be locked up in this coffin board like you at some point?"
Colonel Rhodes's dissatisfied voice sounded, attracting the attention of several people present.
"Hey, Rhodes! I won't give it to others if they want it. Otherwise, you can ask General Ross over there how much money he is willing to give you in exchange for the suit you are wearing?"
Tony shouted as he walked over.
Putting on a suit doesn't take much time.
"It's useless if I want it. Something that bursts as soon as I transform is of no use. Give me your suit, why don't you help me research whether there is one that won't be stretched no matter how I transform. Torn tights.”
When General Ross saw Colonel Rhodes wearing a metal suit, the anticipation in his heart disappeared in an instant.
"Let me give you guys who don't understand science and technology a good introduction to this suit. I can ensure that there will be no problems like before!"
Tony spoke loudly, as if louder voice could bring more powerful persuasion.
"If the 'Saber' suit is completely derived from the technology of the Cybermen race, then this one is the crystallization of all my skills as Tony Stark!
But the real surprise is not that! It's the weapon system mounted on this suit!
As I said once when I showed off the Jericho Missile, I believe the best weapons need to be fired once, and the weapons system on this suit can do just that! "
Tony said as he patted Colonel Rhodes on the body.
"Rod, tell me 'deploy weapons systems'."
Faced with Tony's desire for expression, Colonel Rhodes reluctantly repeated "deploy weapon systems." Then he looked at the extra thing on his body and felt a little hairy.
"Tony, don't tell me that you made this suit to flush the toilet!"
A thing that looked like a toilet pusher popped up from Colonel Rhodes' hand. This thing didn't seem to have anything to do with a weapon.
If anything, during a street fight, it might be quite effective if someone holds a spatula that has just been used to drain the toilet and still has some residue on it.
"This is the most powerful weapon I can bring out now, technology from another alien race.
To be honest, this weapon is the only thing I can use from that race's technology.
I can't even change his appearance.
The personal weapon of the Daleks! Weapons capable of firing death rays, lasers, lightning, and even particles! Currently, with my technology, the idea is 'my' technology, I can't find any material that can defend against this kind of attack.
According to my tests and data, the highest-powered attack of this thing can easily break the vibranium-mixed Adamantium shield in Captain America's hand.
Even without any hindrance! "
Tony tried his best to introduce the weapons in words that General Ross and Colonel Rhodes could understand.
In fact, even if this thing is used to attack his original "Saber" suit, it can break through that defense without any hindrance.
The technological intensity of the Dalek race is far beyond what the Cybermen can match, although both races are irresistible disasters for humans.
But if the Daleks wanted to eliminate the Cybermen on a planet, then probably only two Daleks would be enough.
Tony barely made up his mind before taking out this weapon.
Of course, this is not the kind of technology that is doomed once it gets out of hand.
Any attack requires energy, and the energy source loaded on this suit is only enough for this weapon to launch one attack.
"How do you shoot this thing? Is it directly pressed on the opponent's face?"
Colonel Rhodes said angrily.
This spear doesn't look like it has a barrel.
"It's best not to do this. If this thing is slapped in the face, everything about the opponent will be converted into energy. I still don't understand how this thing can convert metal blocks into energy."
The corners of Tony's mouth twitched.
"I don't think this is what we want, and haven't you been taught a lesson by being locked up in your own suit before? How dare you use something like this that you don't even understand how to operate?
Or are you planning to revive the Cybermen on Earth and then rebuild the Daleks? "
Banner shouted anxiously, and even walked directly towards Tony.
Of course, he carefully bypassed Colonel Rhodes, who was holding a spatula in his hand.
"Daleks and Cybermen are not the same species. Daleks have bodies, so generally speaking, their technology alone will not give rise to another Dalek.
Have you ever met a Dalek? They looked like a pool of slugs. I don't think humans will change the species because of the use of such weapons. "
Tony said this with some uncertainty.
"Let's talk about the Iron Suit. I suggest you show Mr. Fantastic this thing."
General Ross said feebly.
It wasn't a surprise, it was a complete shock.
