Chapter 33
Hammer called Ivan and told him he was playing golf with Stern. "I'm going to bring him over. What can you show him?"

"Drones are not ready yet."

"What do you mean by not ready?"

"Can be shown at the expo. But can't do a demo yet."

"Then what can you ask them to do now?"

"Can't fly, can't shoot."

"Okay, so what can you get them to do now?"

"Salute. (Explode)"

Hammer hung up the phone.Ivan plunged headlong into work again.He lied to Hammer.All is well with the drone.

But he's working on something else, something he doesn't want Hammer to know about... and that's a new generation of plasma whips.Because he has his own arrangements for Stark Expo.

Half an hour later, Hammer and two thugs entered the laboratory.They took Ivan's shoes and pillow.Hammer humiliated him severely.

Plus, they took the bird with them.

"Are you feeling bad?" Hammer asked. "Fine, because I feel bad too! Luckily for you though, I have some of Stark's technology at the fair. This will make your unmanned The camera looks like a set prop. How do you feel about that?"

Ivan just sat there motionless.His time will always come.He wasn't afraid of people like Justin Hammer, because they were too stupid to be worth his fear.

He didn't care about other things, but he would never forgive him for taking that bird.She is innocent.

"I'm leaving here to go to the expo now. These people will take good care of you. They are not so easy to deal with. After I come back, we will renegotiate your contract."

Tony built the new triangular Ark reactor in a few hours of work, and rebuilt a shell to fit the new shockwave converter in the groove of his chest.He was making preliminary calculations when Jarvis said, "There's a call."

Tony puts the new blaster down. "What do you want?" he said, completely oblivious to who was on the other end of the line.

Then he heard Ivan Vanko on the other end of the phone—that is, the sound of the whip.

"Tony. You suggested that I double the revs, which was a good suggestion," he said.

"As a dead person, your voice sounds good."

"You too. Today, the true history of the Stark family will be rewritten."

"Jarvis, where is he?" Tony asked softly.

Fanke didn't hear what he said. "What your father did to my family 40 years ago, I will pay back in four and 10 minutes."

"Good advice. Let's meet and work it out."

Jarvis confirmed Vanko's location, he was in Queens.

This means that if they can't stop Fanke first, he will be ready to go to the expo to fight.

No time to test now.He stood up and fitted the new blaster converter.It burned Tony's chest, and for a moment he thought he was going to be killed by the thing.

"Wow," he said.The energy generated by the new element surges between the shockwave converter and the heart.Are you shining right now?It's hard to say, he really can't see clearly...

Natasha was tired of continuing to play Natalie, but Fury said that Pepper Potts didn't know about her infiltrating the company in disguise, so she had to continue playing.

Stark Industries was too busy, and Tony left a huge mess behind.Now being Pepper's assistant is almost everything.busy spinning.

If she had a choice, she would rather go to Umbrella, and everything could be settled by Ah Fu.

Apart from the absence of sun and sand, her time in Umbrella was literally on vacation.

With earphones on her head and a clipboard in her hand, she was waiting for Little Pepper to appear at the entrance of the Tent of Tomorrow.Hammer's presentation is expected to begin in five minutes.

The Tent of Tomorrow is actually an open venue with a solar glass dome above it, a high-tech stage inside, and the backstage technology is even more astonishing.

The backstage area was full of technicians from Hanmer Industries, and they rushed to adjust the demonstration system in the last few minutes.The venue was full except for a few chairs reserved for VIPs.

Natasha scanned the crowd again.

"Miss Potts!" she cried.Pepper and Happy saw her and walked in her direction. "I'll take you to a special seat." Natasha said.Then her phone rang, and she picked it up without looking at the number. "I'm Natalie Rushman."

"Ivan has a conspiracy," Tony said before she finished speaking, "he called me from the laboratory."

There was hardly any hesitation in her voice. "Yes, Miss Potts just arrived at the venue," Natasha said briskly, "Okay, I'll be right there."

She hung up, and Tony thought, "Fine, she must be at the fair." Maybe she could get the S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Good evening, Miss Potts." John sat on the seat next to Pepper and nodded to Pepper.

"Hello, Mr. Wierscher." Pepper also replied. "how are things?"

"Thanks to you, the company is on the right track. If Miss Potts is interested, you can visit Umbrella's exhibition area." John laughed.

The two chatted for a while, and Justin Hammer danced on stage to the rhythmic music.

After paying tribute to the audience, it was a little more formal.

"In a truly perfect world, the men and women of the United States military would never have to set foot on the battlefield." The music began, and Hammer walked to the edge of the stage and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, today, we will enter a... A perfect world."

Red, white, and blue smoke sprayed out around the stage, and four rows of heavily armed soldiers stepped neatly into the Tent of Tomorrow and stopped in line along one side of the stage.An announcer called out the soldiers by name in the order they appeared: "Army! Navy! Air Force! Marines!"

The 32 soldiers lined up slowly and neatly, then raised their right hands together and saluted War Machine.

That's when Pepper and everyone in the Tent of Tomorrow realized that they weren't really fully armed soldiers.

Instead, it's a walking, synchronized movement drone that can be controlled remotely.

The audience in the audience burst into deafening cheers, and Little Pepper had never heard such a loud sound.

Each group of drones represents a service branch.

Air Force drones are equipped with flight equipment, with wing-like parts on the torso and movable flight control surfaces on the back.

Army drones are low-profile and armed with heavy weapons.

The Marine Corps looks leaner and faster, as if it can quickly grab any beachhead at any time.

The Navy drone, on the other hand, looks streamlined and more powerful, painted midnight blue and riddled with missiles.

"Aren't you surprised? This is an invention that can change the shape of war." Pepper asked John next to him.

"Isn't this a very simple thing?" John replied casually. "My skills are much better than these."

"Okay." Little Pepper listened to the cheers of the mountains and tsunami in the stadium.She actually felt that these things were nothing, and suddenly felt a sense of loneliness that everyone was drunk and the only one was sober.

"Let me tell you, these things are better than some cheerleaders. But today, I proudly introduce you to the Variable Threat Response Suit and its pilot, James Rhodes!"

A platform rises from below the stage, and the people standing on it are War Machine.Under the spotlight, his armor gleamed silver.

Pepper couldn't help but gasped.Thousands of lights in the venue went out in unison.The appearance of War Machine made all the audience hold their breath.

That's when Iron Man landed on the stage through the opening above the venue's dome, wearing his new Mark 6 suit, which fit perfectly with the new triangular blaster converter.

His timing is perfect, and Pepper, in retrospect, must have wondered if Tony had planned his entrance this way.

Regardless of what Hammer felt when he saw Tony smashing the grand party that belonged to him, as the host, he can only push the boat along.

"That's not all for today!" Hammer said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is our special guest: Iron Man!"

Waving to the audience, Tony established a call link with Roddy on his helmet's built-in display.

"There are citizens at the scene," Roddy said, "don't do anything here yet."

"Everyone is in danger here," Tony said. "We have to get them out of here. I think Hammer is working with Ivan."

"Ivan is still alive?" Rody asked suspiciously.

Tony turned around and asked Hammer, "Where is Ivan?"

"What are you doing here?" Hammer asked.He looked like he had thrown a party and his girlfriend's ex came in and messed everything up.

"Say, where is Ivan Vanke?" Tony faced the audience and hugged Hammer's shoulders.The repulsion stabilizer in the palm emits a faint blue light.

Hammer firmly believes that Iron Man will not give himself a palm shot in the public.One came directly and refused to admit it.

"You mean... the guy who attacked you in Morocco? Shouldn't he be in jail?"

All 32 drones on the stage immediately entered the combat readiness state.

The air force seemed to be ready to take off at any time, the army tripod was firmly set into the ground, and the anti-aircraft guns on its back were aimed at War Machine and Iron Man.

The navy leaned over slightly, the missile launch nest on its back eager to try.The launch port on the Marine's arm also faces Iron Man and War Machine.

"Let's go outside to resolve this matter." The two confirmed in the communication channel.

The two took off one after the other, and flew out from the skylight, followed by the air force drone, and the firepower of other drones followed the movement trajectory of the two and smashed the solar dome to pieces.The audience present was in a mess for a moment.

John moved his body and sat up from the VIP seat.Walked onto the stage leisurely.

It was in stark contrast to the panic of other audiences at the scene.

Originally, John wanted to play a role in the plot, but he was too good, and a bad luck could take him away with a single bullet.

So he had no choice but to be a little cowardly, even in the round with the imitation master, he was timid, and let the electromagnetic machine gun rush.

But today he got the hand of glory from Hela, the goddess of death.

This is the materialized use of Hela's advanced magical energy manipulation, channeling energy through the body to make the most powerful Asgardian flesh possible.

The reason why Hela only used the Hand of Glory on her right hand is because her left side is dead and rotting.

But John doesn't have this negative buff.He is now equivalent to the strongest body in Asgard.

Moreover, he doesn't have Hela's godhead of death, and the divine power he uses is non-attributed.Don't worry about going to see Hela as soon as you use it.

These idle firepower, today I just ignore it.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The heartbeat sounded like thunder.

Actively turn on the emperor engine.Increased bonuses to physical abilities.

The non-attribute divine power floods the whole body, and the hand of glory is actively opened.

The stage around him shattered silently, and the fragments quietly floated up.Psychic control, active activation.

The stage is hollow and there are elevators and things hidden under it.

The sound of various firepower weapons and the roar of the emperor's engine came from the collapsed stage.

But in 5 minutes, only three of the 24 drones were left, and they flew up with the propellers on the soles of their feet.

The biological standpoint can help Superman fly. John, who now has the strongest body in Asgard, should be able to try to fly in theory.

John jumped up suddenly, grabbed a fleeing drone, and wanted to fly with it to catch the second one, but the altitude kept dropping.

"Boom." The poor drone was smashed to the ground.

John patted the dust on his body casually, and looked at the other two drones flying away.

"Enough exercise today." John continued to pat the dust off his body, "Let you go."

Damn, this Asgardian's speed is not very good, probably at the level of a master imitator.

I don't think I can catch up without tools.

Leave the rest to Iron Man and War Machine.

Pepper and Natalie are looking for Justin Hammer.Little Pepper's attitude is very firm, he must give himself an explanation.

While she didn't hear Hammer and Tony talking on stage, the whole thing was clearly getting out of hand.

"Go away," Hammer said angrily when he saw them, "I can take care of this."

"Really?" she asked. "It doesn't look like that."

"I can handle it. If that guy hadn't popped up just now, none of this would be—"

He never got a chance to finish the sentence.Before Pepper could react, Natalie locked Hammer's arm and pushed him to the nearest table. "Who is behind the scenes?" She shouted into Hammer's ear, "Say it!"

This time he really felt the approach of death, and he tried his best to make a sound.

"It's Ivan," Natalie exerted a little force on Hammer's arm, and he revealed the truth, "Ivan Vanko."

"Where is he now?"

"At my factory."

Natalie immediately went to Happy.

Tony leads Roddy and the Air Force drone in a chase above the fair.

"It's strange that there are no more chasers? Aren't we their primary target? Are they going to kill civilians now?"

"Then we have to make a quick decision."

They passed quickly over the reflecting pool, causing a high spray, and the Air Force drone behind Tony was still hot on their heels.

He turned and flew a higher circle, trying to continue to attract the attention of the Air Force drones and keep their firepower away from the crowd on the ground.He hoped he could create a little surprise at just the right time.

Tony wasn't quite sure which was his favorite structure at the fair: the two-hundred-foot-tall metal globe called the Great Globe, recreated from what remained of the first Stark's Fair, or the reflecting pool?The huge Stark logo stands on the surface of the continents on the large globe, slanting across the equator from south to north.

He made a big round on the lake, and War Machine followed him closely.Tony thought, "If they've seen the Reflecting Pool, why don't they look at the Big Globe?"

Roddy interrupted and asked, "What's up there?"

The large globe slowly appeared in Tony's sight, and the drones approached him again.

But War Machine was closer to him.Tony targeted the globe, calculating a path that would allow him to pass through the globe as it spun without bumping into the I-beams on it that symbolized the lines of warp.

"It might hurt a little," he told Roddy.

"What? No, you wouldn't—"

The reason why Tony calculated this route is because the distance between him and War Machine is very tight. If Tony can fly over, then Roddy will be fine.The large globe rotates very slowly.

Iron Man's Mark 6 suit slips through the gap in the center of the spinning sphere, with War Machine following behind.Tony's calculations were correct: he and Roddy made it through safely, and none of the Air Force drones survived.

Hit the continental plate of the big globe or the I-beam symbolizing the longitude.No matter what, they all turned into bright fireworks, and even the big globe just shook for a while, and it still operated as usual.

Pepper just walked out of the exhibition hall. She stayed here to ensure that Justin Hammer was controlled by the police. Now this matter has been settled, but the policemen who controlled the flow of people in the park said that she needed to stay in the park. In the park, until all the tourists leave.

War Machine landed beside her, "Unbelievable, but it seems like the drones are gone."

Just as Little Pepper was about to say something, he saw the Black Widow II electromagnetic rotary cannon on his back raised by War Machine.

"Climb down!" The high-speed jet of the Black Widow II was like a chainsaw, sawing the fish that slipped through the net behind Little Pepper into two pieces.

The splashed engine oil stained Xiaojiali's clothes.

"Isn't it too violent?" Pepper said, "Can't you be like Iron Man, use that flight stabilizer, and hit him with a touch?"

"That thing needs to be charged, and I usually use it as a real flight stabilizer. Please, I like this so much, I strongly asked John to install it for me!" Roddy said.

"Ah, the engine oil splash is really bad! Wait, is that John you're talking about Umbrella's president, John Wiersher?" Little Pepper wondered.

"Does he still have this identity? I only know that Tony's hidden laboratory is his." Roddy said.

"It seems we're talking about the same person." Pepper nodded. "Where's Tony?"

Iron Man found another slippery fish, and it was aiming at a young boy wearing Iron Man's mask.

The little boy did not dodge in a hurry but raised the Iron Man Palm Cannon in his hand, even though it was just a light toy.

Iron Man fell behind the boy and also raised his palm cannon.

"boom!"

"Nice job, man." Iron Man flew up behind the little boy.

Natasha plugged into their HMDs. "Nice job? Guys. No more drones."

She showed a side of herself that she didn't know. If she hacked into the system faster than Jarvis, it meant she was still a super hacker.

"Impossible, I'm counting, we killed at most nine," Tony said.

Rhode interjected, "I'll kill one alone."

"That's not enough, how about 32?"

Natasha looked at the control terminal, "Eight are disconnected at the big globe. One is at the backstage exit of the Future Tent, one is near the exit of the park, and the others are directly disconnected at the stage."

"Can someone help?" Tony immediately thought of John, his newly upgraded scanning system can definitely see his invisible drone, right?

"I don't think you need to worry too much. It's a good thing to have help." Roddy interjected.

"The new core in the chest is working really well," Natasha added. "I can see a huge increase in power output and you're in really good shape."

"Yes, I can't die yet. Thank you."

Pepper was obviously listening, because as soon as he said the word "death" her face appeared on Tony's monitor. "What do you mean you can't die temporarily? Did you just say you were going to die?"

"Why are you on the channel too? Oh no, I didn't say that. I'm fine now."

"What happened?" she demanded.

"I meant to tell you, but I didn't want to scare you," Tony said.

Her voice became higher: "You were going to tell me? Were you dying?"

"You didn't ask me to tell you," Tony protested, "I was going to make you an omelet and tell you!"

Natasha interrupted the two of them: "Hey, hey, save the bickering for the honeymoon. Tony, there are enemies. This one doesn't look so easy to deal with."

"Great," Tony said, "Pepper?"

"Are you better now?"

"I'm fine," Tony said, "don't be mad, I'll formally apologize—"

"I am very angry."

"—Wait for me to repel the attack of the Hammer drone." Tony ended the conversation.

"Okay." But her voice told him there was absolutely no end to it.

"We could have talked in Venice," Tony said, remembering their conversation on the plane.It was the first time he was going to tell her about palladium poisoning.

She rolled her eyes and said, "Oh, come on."

War Machine has sent Pepper to the car.

"We'll take care of it here, go to a safe place first."

Pepper watched in the rearview mirror that the mask of the deep-black war machine was buttoned down, and he turned his head and flew up.

She might just have to pray for them now.

After War Machine and Iron Man met, they hadn't had time to say their first words.

The whip came down right in front of them.

Ivan turned out to be busy designing his new armor and whip as well.

They fit into grooves on the inside of Vanko's forearms, acting as extensions of his arms.

These two whips are thicker and longer, and they seem to be able to reach higher temperatures than what Tony had encountered in Monaco before.

Roddy smiled disdainfully, "I have this." The missile pods on both shoulders opened at the same time, and twelve Marauder missiles roared out inside.

With quick eyes and hands, Iron Man pulled the war machine and ran away.

"boom!"

Taking the whip rope that just landed as the center of the circle, the surface of the ground with a radius of [-] yards was turned upside down, the soil was floating in the air, and the ground was hollow.

"John pretending?" Tony asked.But he already knew the answer.

"I'm so brave, I dared to shoot twelve rounds together..." Rody looked at the explosion scene in front of him in shock.

The drones that had not been detonated by the whip were detonated one by one in this big explosion.

"I think you should think about how to write the report now." Tony gloated. "They'll ask you if you dropped a nuke in an urban area."

"It's not that exaggerated..." Roddy said dryly.
