Tony's heart, which had been hanging in his chest, suddenly fell when he heard Jarvis' words.
It's over, the nightmare is finally over.
Ever since Tony was poisoned by palladium, he has been living in a daze every day, hoping to numb his nerves with all kinds of debauchery and enjoyment.
This caused his mental state to deteriorate and he almost reached the brink of a mental breakdown.
But now it's different, they have successfully created new elements and Iron Man has been reborn.
If being kidnapped by the Ten Rings and becoming Iron Man was a transformation, then this time, he understood what his true self was!
Justin is now on a golf course. He is in high spirits. With the remote-controlled iron soldiers made by Ivan, he will soon embarrass Tony Stark.
With the remote-controlled armor made by Ivan, he believes that he will soon be able to escape from his current embarrassing position, replace Stark Industries' original position, and become the leader in the arms industry.
But just as he was fantasizing about his future glory and bragging to Congressman Stern, the initiator of the hearing against Tony who played basketball with him, Congressman Stern proposed that he see the Iron Soldier.
This made Justin a little confused. Wasn't he just bragging? Why did he take it so seriously?
Although the Russian scientist was rescued from prison by himself, he was very arrogant and ignored his boss. He even replaced his steel armor with remote-controlled soldiers without saying hello to him.
As for his current request, he didn't know whether Ivan would agree to it.
In order not to lose face in front of Congressman Stern, Justin had no choice but to bite the bullet and call Ivan.
"Hey, Ivan, Councillor Stern is with me, and I want him to see the Iron Soldier."
Inside the Hammer Industries factory, Ivan pressed the microphone on his ear and replied while adjusting the Ark reactor: "The Iron Soldiers are not ready yet."
"What do you mean?" Justin excused himself to Councilman Stan and walked away before continuing. After all, Ivan's current identity was still not public.
"I can only show, not demonstrate." Ivan replied indifferently.
"What's the difference?" Justin asked with a smile.
"It's very simple. Those remote-controlled soldiers can't fly or fire." Ivan answered very calmly, as if he didn't care about Justin's thoughts at all.
"Wait, what else can they do? This is a firearms show." Justin was almost amused. If they can't fly or fire, what use are they to me? Tap dancing? Please, I want weapons, not dolls.
"I can make them salute." Ivan said calmly, his tone not at all inferior to Justin's.
"I can make them salute? What does that mean? Salute?" Ivan was completely upset and asked angrily, "What does that mean? Ivan, isn't this what we agreed on? You promised to make steel armor, and then you promised to be steel soldiers..."
Ivan interrupted Justin's chatter and said, "Dude, everything will be fine."
"That's not what I want." Justin seemed to want to say something, but Ivan didn't give Justin a chance to continue talking and hung up the phone directly.
Justin on the other side was so angry that he almost threw his phone to the ground.
Justin was in no mood to play ball now, so after resigning to Councilman Stern, he returned to his factory angrily and came to Ivan Vanko's room with a group of tall and strong security guards.
But Ivan did not panic. He just sat calmly on the bed, looking at Justin, who was so angry that his hair almost stood up.
Ivan's fearless performance weakened the momentum of Justin, who was leading a group of people. It can only be said that he was a coward.
It's no wonder why Tony looks down on this guy. It can only be said that Tony has an extremely sharp vision, or it can be said that dragons don't live with snakes.
Tony is the dragon and Justin is the snake.
And it's an extremely pus-filled snake.
"I rescued you." After turning around twice, Justin remembered that he was here to vent his anger. He pointed at Ivan Vanko's nose and cursed, "I gave you the funds, the life you have now, and oh, yes, and that little bird."
Finally, Justin remembered the white parrot that Ivan raised.
Ivan curled his lips, the bird was not his.
"But now you tell me that your soldiers can't do anything and can only serve as props?" Thinking of this, Justin became furious again. This time, he wanted to slap Tony in the face, not let himself be slapped by others.
"Take his bird away." Justin pointed at the white parrot that Ivan was teasing and said to the security guard behind him.
The security guard grabbed the white parrot and stuffed it into a cloth bag.
"Take his pillow too," Justin said.
The security guard also took away the two pillows that Ivan was leaning on.
"And shoes." Justin pointed at Ivan's shoes.
The security guards took off Ivan's shoes one by one, revealing a foot engraved with scriptures.
Chapter 145: The Stark Expo Begins
"How do you feel about me taking your things? Are you upset?" Justin looked at Ivan and asked.
Looking at Ivan's expressionless face, Ivan nodded and yelled at him, "Good, because I'm super upset too. We signed a contract, I saved your life, and you gave me the iron armor. This was our condition, but you didn't do it. I don't know if you are a genius or a liar, I don't know what you are. Fortunately, a gift fell from the sky, otherwise you would have hurt me badly. Now I have an improved version of Stark technology. Your expensive iron soldier can only be used as a prop for my demonstration set. Do you understand what I mean? You have lost everything now."
Lost everything? Ivan was too lazy to make any expression. If he could, he really wanted to raise his middle finger to despise this idiot.
You are indeed an idiot, and you deserve to be held in someone's hands and toyed with.
"No matter what, you have to give me what I want." Justin threatened viciously: "Finish it as soon as possible."
"These two are your new babysitters." Just as Justin finished speaking, two security guards who were very tall and had very fierce faces stepped out from the crowd.
"They are not easy to talk to, so don't piss them off." Justin glared at Ivan and said.
After saying that, Justin turned around and left. He still had to prepare for the expo. Ivan failed at the critical moment, but he couldn't just not go to the expo. He wanted to slap Tony in the face this time, but he told the military and the government in advance, and these two parties also said that they were optimistic about him. Come on, young man.
If I suddenly back off now and say no, I can't go.
Wouldn't that be like standing up the government and the military? Do I still want to be in this business?
Fortunately, God had been kind to him. Justin secretly felt lucky. Fortunately, he still had a Mark II suit of armor that Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes had procured. After adding a large number of weapons, he transformed it into a war machine. He could still hold his own and get through this stage. As for what would happen next... it all depended on Ivan's ability to handle it. If he couldn't, it would be all over.
After Justin left, Ivan looked at the two guys who were staring at him. Ivan spat out the toothpick and a malicious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
After a while, Tony, who was debugging the new element core, received a call.
"Tony, are you still alive?" Ivan wiped the blood off his hands and asked with a smile.
Behind him were the two burly men, but they were both dead.
Ivan hangs their bodies from a telephone wire, spinning them in circles in the air, with the stolen parrot perched on Ivan's shoulder.
"I doubled the speed." said Ivan on the other end of the phone.
"What?" Tony was a little confused. Who is this person? !
