Chapter 124: Becoming a Slave



Chapter 124: Becoming a Slave

"I have a question for you. Have you heard of the 'Desperate Virus'?" Lu Yifang asked.

"A new type of influenza? Or a biological weapon left behind by the Chitauri?" Tony's eyes moved, pretending to be ignorant.

"No, this matter is related to you, look at this." Lu Yifang handed over a roll of documents.

"This is a paper written more than ten years ago. For articles like this, I usually... Oh, this is a great idea. I have had this idea a long time ago. If I were to write it, it would definitely be... excellent. The author of the paper is truly a genius. Although he is not as good as me, he can still be considered half a step ahead of me." After reading it, Tony looked at Lu Yifang excitedly.

"Who is this person? I must resonate with him."

"I haven't seen the author's name?" Lu Yifang was helpless. Others might think that Tony was just pretending, but Lu Yifang, who knew his character well, understood that Tony had indeed forgotten.

The mature Iron Man Tony was reborn from the ashes in the Afghan cave. He used to be just a playboy who was obsessed with money and made countless fools.

As expected, Tony was also confused when he saw his name and another woman's name on the scroll. "When did you write this? The woman's name seems familiar. When I wrote it, I might have wanted to get closer to her."

"You must think twice. This desperate poison is related to the notorious Mandarin in recent days. I guess you want to get rid of him as soon as possible. After all, you hate those terrorists the most." Lu Yifang looked at Tony who was in deep thought and reminded him softly.

"As for the matter of Lord Man, I did have the thought of getting rid of him, but Roddy stopped me, saying that this is the responsibility of the country." Tony frowned and said that this matter is related to political affairs, and Tony has always disliked corrupt politics.

"It's a common feeling in the world." Lu Yifang said with a smile. After the battle in New York, the political circles of all countries have fallen into panic, especially the United States. In addition, the nuclear weapons incident has damaged the government's prestige, and it is urgent to restore its prestige with a great achievement.

It turned out that it was most appropriately handled by SHIELD. Although SHIELD did not belong exclusively to the United States in the past, but was actually under the joint control of the five major powers, SHIELD was quite partial to the United States because of its generous payment.

But now is different from the past, SHIELD has grown into an independent agency, so the relationship between the United States and it is delicate. Although SHIELD is happy to get rid of the Mandarin, if it asks for help at this time, it will show its weakness.

In fact, Lu Yifang was willing to wait and see what would happen, and when the political arena was in a mess, he would seek help from SHIELD and the supernatural before intervening. However, the desperate poison was linked to the supernatural, so Xuedu was involved from the beginning.

"Well, I want to help too, but really..." Tony said in a lazy and evasive manner. He always hated trouble. Before he could finish his words, Pepper called him.

"What's going on? Happy was affected by a terrorist attack and is now in the hospital for treatment." After a moment, Tony's face suddenly changed and he said anxiously, "Wait a moment, I'll be there soon."

"Can you give me a ride, buddy?" Tony comforted Pepper while looking at the Red Devil.

Inside the hospital, Pepper was crying. Suddenly, there was a flash of red light and Tony was standing before her.

"Tony, this shouldn't be the case." Pepper threw herself into Tony's arms and cried.

On the bed, a fat man was unconscious, wrapped in bandages and with oxygen in his mouth.

"This is not what I want." Tony's eyes were red. Happy, this slightly clumsy fat man, has been with Tony for twenty years. Although Tony has not said it, he has already regarded him as a family member. For Tony, who has been lonely for many years, the word "family" is very important, which is self-evident.

"Who knows me? No one knows where I am. No one can predict my coming. World, bear the pain~!" At this moment, the Mandarin's terrifying declaration suddenly appeared on the TV in the ward.

"Damn you!" Tony laughed in anger, let go of Pepper and strode out of the hospital.

Outside the hospital, reporters had already gathered. When Tony came out, they all surrounded him. Before anyone could ask, Tony spoke first.

"Everyone, I have a holiday greeting for Lord Man, and I have prepared the words. I am Tony Stark, and I declare war on you." After saying this, Tony took off his glasses, with a murderous look on his face, and with the help of Jarvis, he made his secret place public.

"You, a worthless person who secretly bullies the weak, dare you come to me? This matter has nothing to do with politics or the Pentagon. It is just a personal revenge. You hurt my relatives. No matter where you hide, how powerful you are, or who protects you, I only say one thing - I will find you, and then I will die!"

Lu Yifang walked into the ward lounge and saw Tony sitting in a corner, seemingly in deep thought.

"You are still so impulsive. Do you need my help with Lord Man's affairs?" Lu Yifang said helplessly.

"This matter has nothing to do with you superpowers." Tony turned to look at Lu Yifang, his eyes still burning with anger. "Potts has told me that Happy is in this situation because of the desperate drug deal with the superpowers."

"So you're taking your anger out on us?" Lu Yifang heard this and raised his eyebrows. "Don't forget who created the Desperate Poison? And there's one thing you haven't noticed yet. Happy and Pepper know that being with the king is like being with a tiger, so why don't they awaken to be superpowers, at least to protect themselves. According to the New York kinship, the two have X genes."

Pepper is the CEO of Stark Industries and has invested a lot in the reconstruction of the Academy after the New York disaster. The Academy gave her X-crystals as a token of gratitude.

"Because you didn't choose to transform into a superpower, Pepper and Happy are unwilling to leave you. All this is because of you." Lu Yifang pointed at his chest and said.

"This idea is extremely stupid. I never let them do that. I don't have super powers because I am Iron Man, not a superpower." Tony scratched his head in annoyance.

"What's the contradiction between the two? Or fear?" Lu Yifang asked sarcastically. "Guess, is it because Tony can have super powers, but Iron Man can't?"

In the past, Tony was just a playboy, but the iron armor brought him back to life. Since then, Tony has been closely associated with the name of Iron Man. He regards it as his powerful self and prefers people to call him Iron Man instead of Tony Stark.

However, after the battle of New York, he saw the power of the aliens and felt that the armor was not enough. So he closed the door to research and develop, working day and night to upgrade the suit, even ignoring his mortal body and Tony's ordinary life.

If there are house slaves in the world, Tony today would be one of them.
