He took out the things his father left him, the Ark reactor design and research materials, and plunged into crazy research, trying to use all his sorrow as motivation to take revenge on Tony.
Chapter 101: Stark Expo
The turmoil caused by Abomination and Hulk has not yet completely subsided. The government has not given an accurate response, has been evasive, and has not even come up with a definite opinion on how to deal with the situation. This has also caused dissatisfaction among many people, with marches, protests, and even scolding the government for its incompetence and the military for being inhumane for creating such a horrific creature. Public opinion has made the government panic.
In a state of anxiety, they could only announce with great fanfare the convening of a hearing that had nothing to do with this matter.
This incident attracted the attention of most people. Although many people protested and marched, the most angry among them were the people who suffered the most. As for others, they just felt that their lives were threatened and thus joined in spontaneously.
However, these things did not actually happen to them, and they did not feel much about it. It has to be said that the US government has a very accurate grasp of these people's psychology.
How do you put out a fire quickly? Start a bigger fire and use up all the air. This is pretty much how the US government does it.
Although there were still many people protesting, more people were attracted by the Stark Expo and the upcoming hearing. The overwhelming news almost overshadowed everything that had happened before.
It was as if everyone had forgotten the turmoil caused by Hulk and Abomination.
Over Stark Expo.
"Sir, everything is ready. It's your turn!" Jarvis' voice came from the internal communication system of the Iron Man armor, informing Tony that the moment he had been waiting for for a long time had arrived.
This made Tony shout out in joy immediately, and then he jumped directly from the plane hovering tens of thousands of feet in the sky. He was certainly not seeking death, because he was wearing his Iron Man armor - Mark IV.
The instant his iron armor activated, he instantly transformed into a dazzling streak of fire, drawing a long curve in the pitch-black night. Following the appearance of this streak of fire, countless stars immediately blossomed on the ground.
That was the appearance of countless fireworks being ejected.
A burst of fireworks flew into the sky, emitting thousands of bright ribbons of flames. Then thousands more fireworks flew into the sky, instantly filling the entire night sky with countless flames.
This was all part of the grand entrance Tony had envisioned, and it was grand, but not in the way he had imagined.
He originally thought that he would pass through the countless fireworks in a dashing and handsome manner, and then land safely and charmingly on the stand.
But the fact is, he had been hit by so many fireworks that even his flight trajectory was deviated.
If it wasn't night, his embarrassing look would have been seen by countless people. That's why he was very unhappy.
"Who bought the fireworks?"
"Miss Potts bought it, sir!" Jarvis told him the answer to the question honestly, and Tony immediately curled his lips when he heard the answer.
"Don't forget to remind me to tell Pepper how bad this fireworks company's products are. Don't buy anything from them next time."
"Okay, sir. I've put this on record." Jarvis dutifully completed Tony's order, and just as he said this, Tony had already dived down like a meteor.
He passed through the newly built landmark buildings in the Science and Technology Expo Park, and then landed on the large booth of the Science and Technology Expo with bright flames.
The booth was already occupied by a group of beauties wearing Iron Man-style bikinis, and they surrounded Tony the moment he came down.
At the same time, as Tony walked around, advanced robotic arms quickly rose from under the booth and disassembled one part after another from Tony's Mark IV.
After a few steps, Tony completely took off his iron armor, and the atmosphere in the venue reached its most enthusiastic level. The music suddenly stopped at the climax.
At the same time, beautiful girls also struck seductive poses, fireworks were shooting, the stage was bright, and the cheers of countless people plunged the entire expo into a noisy sound tide.
"Tony! Tony! Tony! Tony!"
The audience below was so enthusiastic, that was the kind of treatment only superstars could get. Now Tony Stark also had countless crazy fans, many of whom bought gloves with big headlights on them and waved them around.
"Oh! It's great to be back. You missed me a lot, didn't you? I didn't say that the long-term global peace was finally achieved because of me. I also didn't say that no one in the world could rise like a phoenix from the ashes like me. I also didn't say that the US government was able to remain calm because I always maintained my peak condition and no one dared to challenge me one-on-one."
Pretend! Continuously pretend, at this moment Tony Stark is the pretend king!
"So, four months from now, at the dawn of the new year, the first global technology expo since 1974 will be held here. The best minds from different countries and companies around the world will offer their resources and achievements, sharing their remarkable visions with everyone. They will demonstrate what kind of better future we will create. Compared to this, nothing else matters, right?"
The venue was once again filled with cheers.
This time, the voices weren't from superhero fans, but from countless tech enthusiasts. There's no shortage of tech-obsessed people in the world, and for them, the Stark Tech Expo is the real deal.
"In short, I only have one thing to say. Welcome, everyone. Come to the Stark Technology Expo, and the future is right before your eyes. If you have any further questions, please allow this special guest to explain them to everyone. Please welcome my father, Howard!"
"Technology can achieve everything..." Tony said this, and an old video image immediately appeared on the huge screen behind him.
At the same time, a legendary figure Howard appeared in the image. Although it was just an image, he brought the atmosphere of the entire expo to a climax.
The opening ceremony was very successful, which meant that Tony achieved his goal today. What he had to do next was another very difficult thing.
The question is how to get out of here.
At this moment, the aisles of the venue were already crowded with countless admirers and various people who had intentions towards Tony himself. It was not so easy for him to get out of here, especially when he could not use his Mark IV to force his way out.
Chapter 102: Johnny Blaze
Fortunately, he has a bodyguard who is conscientious and has a great appearance.
Hogan is a big man who is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 190 pounds. He looks very powerful and knows a little bit of boxing skills, which are not very useful.
So dealing with those fans and the like was extremely easy. Soon, Hogan and his boss broke through the siege and arrived at an absolutely safe place.
Of course, this kind of security is actually relative. At least, for government officials, this is not a safe place.
As soon as he entered the internal-only parking lot, Tony saw a new sports car paired with a typical Irish beauty.
So he immediately stopped Hogan from raving about the sports car, pointed at the Irish beauty leaning against it and asked, "Who is she? Did she come with the car?"
"I hope so, then I can buy one!" Hogan shook his head, indicating that he had no idea what was going on.
Seeing Tony, the Irish beauty leaning against the car immediately walked over with a smile and greeted him: "Hi! Tony, nice to meet you!"
"Hello, beautiful lady! Who are you?" Tony held the beauty's hand and had no intention of letting go.
"Law enforcement officer! I'm from Washington." The Irish beauty's words made Tony immediately let go of his hand. He looked at the beauty, and the eagerness in his eyes immediately diminished a little.
Because he already felt that this was a big trouble.
So, he immediately changed the subject and said to Hogan, "Get in the passenger seat. I'll drive today!"
Hogan shrugged and walked obediently to the passenger seat, while Tony opened the door and sat in the driver's seat. Of course, he continued to talk to the law enforcement lady.
"Miss, where is your hometown?"
"Bedford, Mr. Stark."
"It's really far. Then why did you come here?" Tony asked with a frown.
The law enforcement officer smiled and said, "I came to see you!"
"Looking for me? What do you want from me?" Tony started to act crazy. He had already guessed who was looking for trouble with him.
