"Ah!" Tony Stark woke up from his nightmare again.

"Damn it! I obviously took sleeping pills!"

Tony got up from the bed angrily, picked up the water glass on the bedside, and drank a glass of ice water.

After he regained consciousness, he went straight to the laboratory downstairs in his pajamas.

"Jarvis, look it up for me. Which mutant has the ability to continuously create nightmares for people?"

"Information search, estimated time is one hour and twenty-three minutes."

Tony went to get a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, lay on the sofa, and sipped slowly, his face gloomy and his eyes twinkling.

He suspected that the nightmare he had been having came from the ability of a certain mutant. The purpose might be for money, or he might want to use his social status to change the situation of mutants, etc.

"Not a bad idea!" he murmured, "but you have found the wrong person!"

He threw the wine bottle away, stood up and started to look up the information.

Thanks to his identity, he can see a lot of confidential materials and information. Even if the content is not open to him, he can steal it through Jarvis.

Soon, he had a large number of public research results on mutants.

As for those things that cannot be made public or even mentioned, they are not connected to the external network at all. No matter how high the technical level is, it is useless no matter how powerful the supercomputing speed is.

His genius-like brain began to work at high speed, flipping through the information at a glance, and quickly digesting the research results on mutants.

"The information search has been completed, and no mutant information with matching abilities has been found. The search scope covers all public information, as well as some government, military, scientific research institutions, group company and other databases. However, it cannot be ruled out that there is mutant information in this part of the database possibilities that exist outside.”

"I know, it's not important anymore." Tony pushed away the information in front of him, "Jarvis, I need something."

He began dictating a pile of materials and asked Jarvis to place the order.

A few seconds later, Jarvis replied: "Order completed, estimated delivery time, seven days."

"It's too slow. I need it before I go to bed tomorrow night!"

"Okay, triple the price has been paid, and all items will be delivered before 19 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Jarvis is now very smart and is completely accustomed to his master's style of throwing money at people.

"Very good." Tony nodded with satisfaction, took out a pen and paper, and began to design the item structure diagram.

He wanted to create a room that could isolate mutant abilities and eliminate the mutant abilities that affected him through nightmares.

After he solves his own problems, he will take time out to let the mutants in that martial arts school have a taste of the power of money!

In front of a big capitalist like himself, why are you pretending to be cool and saying, "To the God of War, money is meaningless."

After the special team captured him, Tony wanted to see if he could still maintain that calm and cool air of pretentiousness!

Tony, who was engaged in scientific research, was very energetic and kept busy until dawn. When Little Pepper came, he didn't even notice.

"Hey Tony, didn't you sleep last night? What were you doing?"

"Wow, don't worry about me, Pepper. After I assemble this thing, I will have a good sleep tonight. I will sleep until noon tomorrow." Tony hugged Pepper and said with a playful smile.

Pepper shook his head helplessly and dissuaded: "Tony, you have to pay attention to your health problems. You are already in your thirties this year. I don't want to see you die young."

"I'm having regular physical exams, Pepper. I'm in good health." Tony said sternly, "Don't worry about me. I just haven't had enough sleep recently. Everything will be back to normal soon, I promise."

Tony used some sweet words to make Pepper smile.

After Pepper left, Tony carefully checked his design again and asked Jarvis to double-check it. After finding no errors, he put the design away and waited for the materials to arrive to assemble it.

It was already getting brighter now, and he was very sleepy, so he ate some hamburger and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

When he woke up from the nightmare again, the sky was already dark.

"Damn! This nightmare has become more and more frequent recently. This matter must be solved today."

He looked up and asked: "Jarvis, where is the goods?"

"Some parts have been delivered and are being placed in the underground storage area. The remaining parts are on the way and are expected to be delivered within two hours. Do you need to send the existing goods to the laboratory?"

"Send it over first, I will assemble it now."

Tony couldn't wait any longer now, he couldn't wait to have a peaceful sleep.

He is one of the top engineers in the world. He was able to build the first steel armor in a cave with just a bunch of broken tools. Now he wants to assemble an instrument that isolates the abilities of mutants. It is not difficult at all.

As the materials continued to arrive, he assembled faster and faster. Finally, three hours later, a bunch of large and small boxes similar to speakers were assembled.

He carefully debugged it and measured it with precision instruments. Finally, he was convinced that this thing could effectively isolate mutants' superpowers from spreading in the air.

"Very good, I can finally have a good sleep tonight!" Tony straightened up, stretched his tired muscles, clapped his hands proudly, and looked at the masterpiece he had spent nearly a day creating.

He transported all these things to the bedroom on a cart, then installed them at various calculated locations. He tested them again and found that they were running well.

Only then did he lie back on the bed with peace of mind, ready to enjoy his long-lost good sleep.

A few hours later, Tony Stark woke up from his nightmare again.

"Ah! Why doesn't it work?" Tony got up from the bed and tested the equipment, but the equipment was still running well without any faults.

He took out the design drawings again and checked them carefully several times, but still found no problems with the design.

He returned to the laboratory again, took out the relevant information, and looked through it carefully to see if there was any key data or information that he had overlooked.

But unfortunately, after struggling all night, he still couldn't find out what went wrong.

The sun rose, shining warm sunlight on Tony who was sitting on the sofa through the large floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa.

After a long time, Tony exhaled and his eyes regained their brightness.

"If all impossibilities are eliminated, no matter how unbelievable the rest is, it must be the truth. That guy is not a mutant, he is actually an alien."
