"Hi Jarvis, long time no see!"
Tony arrived at his villa on the beach in Marbury, California, and entered the main entrance with a face recognition, greeting Jarvis as he did back then.
After everyone discussed it, they decided to start recruiting from Tony in this world.
After careful investigation on Friday, everyone is convinced that the Tony Stark of this world is not Hydra.
With the help of Tony from this world, many things can be done freely. Whether in terms of intelligence or resources, he can get strong support. Even if something goes too far and is discovered, his power can be used to turn it around.
Even if the recruitment fails, Tony Stark will never talk about these things with his proud temper.
Steve planned to come in person, but Tony volunteered and planned to go out in person to meet himself in this world.
Originally, considering Tony's bad temper, two people with the same personality might start fighting if they met, but Steve firmly disagreed.
But Tony's reasons for objecting to Steve's involvement are also very valid. The Captain America in this world is already a Hydra, so it is very doubtful whether the new "Captain America" will be a clone of Hydra.
Smart people are suspicious. As the most intelligent Tony, he knows his own character very well and will definitely doubt Steve's identity. After all, compared to things like time and space travel, the technical threshold for human cloning is much lower.
There was no other way, so Steve had to ask Tony to come over in person.
Two Tony Starks appeared in the same room, which confused Jarvis and caused his reaction speed to slow down.
Jarvis first glanced at the owner who was discussing the principles of strong magnetic armor with Dr. Banner in the underground laboratory, and then scanned the new owner again. It immediately discovered that the Tony Stark in front of it was obviously much older, but judging from the feedback from the scan results, this was still the real owner!
"...I don't know how to express how I feel now. Maybe my sensors should be upgraded."
Tony laughed, took his favorite wine from the refrigerator with ease, sat down on the sofa, and said with a smile:
"Jarvis, your sensor is not broken. What you see is indeed me, but not me now, but me ten years from now."
"...I'm sorry, sir. My processor is a little overheated. Is this some of your latest research results?"
"Hmm..." Tony turned his head and thought for a moment, "That's right. Of course, the research results of Dr. Banner and Dr. Pym are also important. However, my research is still the most important."
"Well, this is indeed the tone of Mr. Stark's words. So what do you need from me to serve you now, old Mr. Stark?"
"Call the current me over, I need to talk to him." Tony leaned on the sofa with his legs crossed, tasting the wine in his mouth, "Also, please remove the attributive of old age, thank you."
"Okay, Mr. Stark. However, there is a scientific conjecture about the time tunnel. The same person cannot meet in another time and space at the same time, otherwise he may disappear due to a logical breakdown."
Jarvis was quite cautious, fearing that his master would die because of this problem.
"Thank you for the reminder, Jarvis. But I am not from this time and space. I travel not only through time, but also through space. So, feel free to invite him over!"
"Okay, please wait."
Jarvis began to contact the middle-aged version of Tony: "Mr. Stark, there is a guest waiting in the living room."
When the discussion reached a critical moment, he was suddenly interrupted by Jarvis, which made Tony quite unhappy. He frowned, waved his hand and said, "I don't have time to see guests now, just help me get rid of them."
"I'm afraid not, sir. You must meet this guest."
Jarvis was suddenly so "assertive" that Tony couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Jarvis, have you been invaded? You actually refused my order."
"No, I did not refuse your order, Mr. Stark. This guest is very important and he needs to talk to you in person."
This immediately reminded Tony of the last guy he wanted to talk to in person. He raised his eyebrows and said rudely: "If it's Nick Fury, just tell him to get out of here, I don't have time to talk to him!"
"It's not Nick Fury, it's... someone you need to meet in person."
Jarvis always spoke concisely and to the point, but this time he was unusually hesitant, which aroused Tony's curiosity.
"Okay, I'm going to meet the guest who made our Mr. Jarvis lose his temper."
He asked Dr. Banner to take Lao Wang to improve the existing model first, and try to see the effect later. He himself put down the work at hand, took off his white coat, and conducted the experiment. room, coming towards the living room.
As soon as he stepped into the hall door, he saw the elderly Tony leaning on the sofa and tasting wine. His movements, posture, and frivolous smile made him understand who this person was at a glance.
"Wow!" Middle-aged Tony looked up and down at the older version of himself, took a glass of wine and sat across from him, feeling smug.
"I'm such a genius!"
"I have mastered the technology of time travel!"
The old Tony opposite also raised his glass to him proudly, but the middle-aged Tony immediately started to be mean-mouthed.
"But you've taken very bad care of yourself. Judging from your appearance, you must be in your seventies, right?"
Although the middle-aged Tony is also in his thirties, due to the ultimate infinite qigong, his body is full of muscles and his mental outlook is much stronger than that of an ordinary young man in his twenties. As for the elderly Tony, his physical fitness has declined rapidly due to various hardships he has experienced, and his appearance is indeed much older than him.
As soon as a vein appeared on the elderly Tony's forehead, he immediately had the urge to go up and punch him. He finally experienced the feeling of wanting to hit others when they faced him.
He took a deep breath and gave up the urge to teach his younger self a lesson, which had nothing to do with the muscles of middle-aged Tony.
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you! I'm still in a hurry to finish my business in this world and go back to spend time with my precious daughter."
"Baby girl?" Middle-aged Tony was stunned, "Are you married? To whom?"
"Haha, I will tell Pepper this."
"Oh, don't! I said the wrong thing!" Middle-aged Tony was frightened for a second, but he was intrigued and felt itchy in his heart. "Is it a daughter? Is it cute?" He kept asking.
"Of course!" Speaking of his baby daughter, the elderly Tony immediately showed a happy smile, "Morgan is my little angel!"
He showed off a lot of things, making middle-aged Tony jealous, and said: "Ha, as long as I work hard, I will have a little angel in two years!"
"Ha!" Old Tony glanced at him disdainfully, "Little Angel Morgan was the one I got from God after I saved the world many times. Are you the only one?"
"What nonsense are you bragging about? You look so weak now, but you still want to save the world?" Middle-aged Tony bulged his chest and demonstrated to the weakling in front of him.
"What's the use of having strong muscles? Can they be as hard as steel? I have a steel armor!" Old Tony said as he covered his whole body with the nano-steel armor around his waist, revealing it.
"Oh? This nanotechnology is pretty good!" Middle-aged Tony's eyes lit up, and he had new ideas for the next research direction of the strong magnetic armor. However, he didn't like the old Tony's armor. He stretched out his hand and took off the shoulder armor of the nano-steel armor.
"What a fragile armor!" He proudly crushed the metal armor into pieces with his hands. Looking at the stunned look on the other side, he suddenly felt that he had won.
"Okay, even if you win!" Old Tony raised his hands in surrender, "The force in your world is really abnormal, it's too exaggerated!"
"It seems that there should be no Ultimate Infinite Pavilion in the world you are in, otherwise you wouldn't be so surprised." Middle-aged Tony said playfully.
"Not only is there no Ultimate Infinite Pavilion, but there are also a lot of powerful guys missing, such as mutants and so on." Old Tony sighed, canceled the steel suit, and reached out to pick up the wine glass again.
"I have carefully looked at the history of the two worlds. I feel that although there are differences in mutants, the historical differences between the two worlds are not big, until... the man named Zhan Liu appeared!" Old Tony looked at it meaningfully One look at the young self across from him and knew that he understood what he meant.
"In other words, Master Zhanliu is an important node that causes the time and space of this world to shift?" Middle-aged Tony shook the cup, his expression changing like the wine inside.
"When I first arrived in this world, I saw how powerful the people on earth were in terms of force, and I was very happy about it. Maybe the earth could defeat Thanos and save the universe. But..." The elderly Tony paused and took a sip of the cup. The wine dried up, "I saw a video of the earth exploding and time flowing back."
"A higher force value can indeed give people on earth a stronger ability to withstand risks when facing foreign enemies, but when the foreign enemies do not come, too high a force value will be a catastrophe."
"Although this kind of disaster has not spread yet, I am very worried about how long the earth can survive in the future!"
"And as far as I know, the principle of teaching disciples at the Ultimate Infinite Pavilion is that everyone can learn without distinction. If this kind of power spreads wildly in the future, I am afraid that even the universe will not be peaceful."
Middle-aged Tony was silent. In fact, since the last time the earth exploded and Pepper died once, he has been studying the anti-expansion six armor. However, the more he studies, the more useless he feels. In the end, it is better to improve the magnetic field rotation realm. Hard ones are more effective.
Therefore, the strong magnetic armor he is currently researching focuses on how to keep his magnetic field rotation at the highest and strongest level, unmatched by anyone. As long as you can always remain the strongest, you will naturally be able to be calm and calm when facing any enemy.
But he still had hidden worries in his heart. On the one hand, the power of magnetic field rotation was unscientific! He seems to be at a very low level. If he really fights, he might explode for you in a matter of minutes. On the other hand, his weakness was too obvious. If Pepper was threatened, his spirit would be extremely tense. He didn't want to suffer the pain of losing Pepper again.
He was silent for a while and then asked: "So, you came here today because you want me to eliminate Master Zhan Liu, the culprit?"
"No, of course not!" Old Tony hurriedly denied, "I'm just worried about his existence. This is something you should consider, not me. There is no such person in our world, and he will never affect us. .”
"I'm here to ask for help!"
The elderly Tony explained the disasters in his world in detail from beginning to end, and finally made his request.
"We must collect all six infinity stones and return to our world to save the universe. But the force value in your world is incredibly high, so I need your help now!"
Middle-aged Tony listened to everything attentively, and was amazed that he had done so many great things in the other world.
"Have you really saved the world? I always thought you were bragging!"
Old Tony rolled his eyes at him and said sarcastically: "Are you just admitting that you often talk nonsense?"
"No, of course not!" Middle-aged Tony denied flatly.
This kind of thing cannot be admitted even to death. He immediately changed the subject and asked: "Then do you want me to rush into S.H.I.E.L.D. and snatch out the Space Stone? Or find Loki and snatch the Mind Scepter?"
"No!" Old Tony frowned, "Why do I feel that you are more superstitious about violence? Violence is always the last resort to solve problems. If possible, we hope to complete the task silently and not cause any harm to the world. Impact. The reason why I contacted you is mainly to obtain support in terms of intelligence and resources."
Middle-aged Tony shrugged disapprovingly, "Although it is simple and crude, violence is indeed the most efficient way to solve problems. It is very convenient and quick to find the location of the gem and then snatch it. Especially if the opponent does not have high-level magnetic field warriors, That’s even simpler. As for aliens, I’ve seen Thor, but that’s it.”
"Thank you very much for your active support, but we Avengers have our own code of conduct and are willing to stick to our own bottom line. We are the League of Justice Super Heroes, not a gang of super criminals! So, even if it takes a few more years, it is worth it. of."
"Okay, okay! Then it's up to you. It just so happens that I've been quite busy with research work recently, and I don't want to travel all over the universe. If you need anything, just contact Jarvis directly."
"I will."
The agreement between the two was reached so smoothly.
Although the two of them didn't talk much, they already had a general understanding of each other's character. The elderly Tony feels that he in this world has no sense of justice, is superstitious about violence, and does not look like a superhero. And the middle-aged Tony also feels that he in this other world is rigid, has too high a useless moral standard, and does things like a mother-in-law.
Now that the agreement has been reached, the two of them are disgusted with each other and simply settle their disputes separately.
The two of them had similar personalities and similar minds. They raised their glasses at the same time, drank the wine in their glasses, and then stood up and left.
