Li Yue wanted to see Tony, who had been kidnapped, so he thought of teleporting to the cave where Tony was imprisoned, based on the movies he had seen. Then, Li Yue disappeared from where he stood. Li Yue was just trying it out, and he didn't expect it to actually work.
Li Yue's current teleportation was almost silent. He set his teleportation point in a corner next to the cave entrance. Li Yue thought it was the middle of the night and there would only be Tony and the doctor, Yinsen, here. To his surprise, when he arrived, he saw a large group of people holding guns in front of him, which startled Li Yue. He was about to instantly teleport back when he realized they all had their backs to him and hadn't noticed him. He then breathed a sigh of relief and stopped his immediate thought of returning.
Knowing that he hadn't been discovered by these people, Li Yue relaxed and began to observe his surroundings. He saw a bald man among the terrorists, holding a pair of tongs with a glowing red charcoal, facing a person who was being held down by two terrorists and couldn't move. Beside him stood a middle-aged man with a small mustache, and on his chest was a device, radiating a blue light like an LED light, though Li Yue didn't know what it was.
Seeing this situation, Li Yue immediately knew what was going on. Just like in the movie he had seen, the bald leader was threatening Tony with Dr. Yinsen's life, demanding that Tony quickly build missiles. However, Tony had never made missiles; he had been working on building the Mark I to escape.
Knowing that things were still developing according to the plot, Li Yue directly teleported back to Uncle John's house. He planned to come back tomorrow. Tomorrow, Tony's Mark I would be completed, and then Li Yue could watch Tony unleash its power while wearing the Mark I.
Tony hadn't slept all night. Although the terrorist leader had spared him and Yinsen, he had given them an ultimatum to deliver the goods by tomorrow. Tony hadn't built weapons as they had instructed, but rather the Mark I armor, so he naturally couldn't deliver the goods to the terrorists tomorrow.
However, the Mark I was not yet completed, so Tony and Yinsen had to work through the night. Even with such continuous work, it was only completed after noon. But while Yinsen was helping Tony put on the armor, they were discovered by the terrorists, who sent a few subordinates to investigate. They tried to force their way in but were blown away by a bomb Tony had installed on the door.
Under Tony's guidance, Yinsen operated the computer to start the Mark I's control program. However, the program needed time to start, and the recent explosion had already alerted the terrorists, with a large number of them rushing towards the cave.
"Mr. Stark, I'll go buy you some time." Yinsen said to Tony, picked up a terrorist's gun, and rushed out.
"Come back, Yinsen, stick to the plan!" Tony was trapped in the armor, and the control program still needed some time to load. He could only shout at Yinsen, who was running out, but Yinsen was gone in a flash. Tony could only fret internally, praying for the loading program to finish quickly.
"Hello, Mr. Tony Stark, do you need any help?" Just then, a voice came, and the source of the voice was not far from Tony. Tony looked over and saw a young man in casual clothes standing there. He was the one who had just spoken.
"Oh, my god, who are you? Where did you pop out from? Are you a magician?" Tony was indeed Tony; he still had the presence of mind to quip at this moment.
"Mr. Stark, you can call me Li Yue. Is there anything you need my help with right now?" Li Yue asked Tony with a slight smile.
Li Yue had already been here several times today, watching Tony rush to build the Mark I armor, so he hadn't shown himself. After eating something and returning, this was the situation he found.
"Li Yue, right? Your name is too hard to pronounce, it's a real mouthful. Regardless of how you appeared here, please help me call Yinsen back. He'll die if he goes out like this." Tony didn't know how Li Yue appeared here, but he felt that Li Yue wasn't an enemy, because he couldn't move at all right now, and if Li Yue wanted to kill him, he wouldn't have any way to stop him.
"Okay, Mr. Stark, give me two seconds." Li Yue said to Tony, and then disappeared from in front of him.
Tony was startled by Li Yue's move. He couldn't see how Li Yue disappeared at all. As a genius scientist, Tony felt his scientific worldview collapse. A person disappearing silently in front of him, out of nowhere, would be incredibly difficult for anyone to believe. Tony said he could barely accept it if Li Yue opened a wormhole before disappearing, but disappearing like that in front of him, he really couldn't accept it.
However, before Tony could have too many thoughts, Li Yue reappeared in the same spot. Just like before, Li Yue reappeared silently.
"Mr. Stark, I've already sent Yinsen to a safe place. What are you going to do next?" After Li Yue disappeared, he teleported through the cave. In less than a second, he found Yinsen, who hadn't run far. Yinsen was holding a gun and firing ahead, but awkwardly, there was no one in front of him, and he didn't know what he was shooting at.
Li Yue didn't bother with all that. He teleported beside Yinsen, put his hand on Yinsen, and then he and Yinsen disappeared together.
Tony didn't know if Li Yue had been gone for two seconds, because he felt that after Li Yue disappeared, he hadn't even had time to blink before Li Yue reappeared in front of him.
"Oh, my God, how did you do that? A time-space tunnel? A wormhole? Superpower? Or magic?" Tony was truly shocked. It was too fast. He heard that in the blink of an eye, Li Yue had found Yinsen, sent him to a safe place, and then returned to him. How could that be done?
"Mr. Stark, you can just think of it as a superpower. My ability is to instantly go anywhere I want." Li Yue didn't elaborate much on his ability, he just gave Tony a brief explanation.
"Oh, your ability is so cool! How did you get it? Can you let me study this ability of yours? Don't worry, I only need a little of your blood. Also, what powers this ability of yours? What kind of energy does it consume? And what's the furthest distance you can teleport?" Hearing that this was Li Yue's superpower, Tony bombarded him with a barrage of questions.
"Mr. Stark, we can discuss these things later. Let's talk about what you plan to do next. Do you need me to take you to a safe place?" Li Yue's head was spinning from Tony's barrage of questions, so he could only interrupt him and say.
"No, I want them to pay for their actions, and I want to get my revenge with my own hands." Tony's eyes fell on the progress bar on the computer screen, which was only one-third complete. He refused Li Yue's help, feeling that he needed to personally resolve this matter.
"Alright, I won't be too far from you. You can do whatever you want." Li Yue actually knew Tony would refuse. The reason he waited until now to appear and help Tony was because he knew Tony would choose to do this, and had to do this. Some things needed to be resolved by his own hands.
Li Yue believed that Tony, after leaving this place, would have a new beginning. He would no longer be the arms dealer Tony Stark, but Iron Man Tony Stark.
