Chapter 10, task completed
Therefore, Stark's assistance is absolutely beyond description in words. Perhaps there is no way to express it now, but Promises has secretly resolved that if there is an opportunity in the future, he will certainly repay Stark's kindness well
Identity verification completed, authorization granted. " Jarvis's voice just sounded, and the ring spoke in Xu Nuo's mind, " Task accomplished, well done.
After all, murder is a crime that may even require a life for a life. It is nothing short of a joke for an ordinary person to casually discuss life after committing murder. Many veterans who have truly seen blood on the battlefield often feel a sense of nausea in their hearts after regaining their composure, let alone ordinary people in modern society.
"Very well, Mr. Stark," Agent Coulson said, glancing at the promise not far away, who was chatting with Pepper while holding a wine glass. He lowered his voice slightly and continued, "Regardless of whether what you create is a weapon or not, I hope you can master it perfectly. And also, " Agent Coulson turned to look at the promise again, "Please make sure it does not spread."
After eliminating all the armed militants, Xuenuo looked at the terrified villagers around him. He nodded to Stark, and the two of them activated their flight devices and soared into the blue sky
Yes. Stark, somewhat emotionally stirred, nodded heavily, raised his hand to pat Xu Nuo's shoulder, and said, "My friend, I am very sorry. However, I will not tell you why I am sorry. It is time for us to complete our mission. I have prepared your signature."
Since arriving here, he has maintained a state of high tension. After putting in so much effort for such a long time, he has finally waited for this sentence
"Alright, my friend. I'm a bit confused by what you said," Stark shook his head, "I think we should go have a few more drinks now, shouldn't we?"
With Stark's intelligence, it is impossible for him not to discern the meaning behind the promises made. However, the ease with which he previously destroyed the insurgent base in Afghanistan alerted Stark to the fact that what he had created was not an ordinary weapon, but rather an extremely powerful super weapon
"Hi, Xu," Stark said, his expression somewhat complicated as he approached Xu Nuo with a smile. "I think we should go get something to eat"
Stark watched as Xu Nuo stood there dazed after knocking an armed militant away with a punch, enduring the onslaught of gunfire. Not knowing what was happening, Stark hurriedly called out. Not far away, the armed militants were using concentrated firepower to make the Iron Man suits worn by the two of them ring with a "ding-dong" sound.
It is truly amazing, although the energy consumption is a bit fast. However, it is still very addictive. After removing the battle suit, Xu Nuo looked at the metallic Iron Man suit with a face full of reluctance and envy. His unspoken words were that he also wanted to have such a big toy
On the way back to Marbury Beach after ending the attack, the two encountered an American Air Force F-22 fighter jet that had come for reconnaissance. Without engaging in a dogfight, they separated and successfully evaded the U.S. military aircraft by leveraging their speed and endurance, returning to the villa in Marbury
Regardless of the initial intentions, upon arriving in this world, one is astonished to realize that the excitement and promises made are completely different from what was imagined. The notion of easily sweeping through the entire world, relying on one's superpowers and familiarity with the plot, was completely shattered on the very first day
"I do not believe there is anything worthwhile for us to discuss." Stark raised his glass and took a sip, a hint of indifference flickering in his gaze, "You may have misread the word just now; that is not a weapon."
He is now just a fragile ordinary person. Not to mention S.H.I.E.L.D., even those armed factions can easily take him down. If it weren't for Stark's help, let alone completing the mission and returning to the modern world, it would be extremely difficult for him to survive well in this world.
Once that ultimate villain boss has constructed his battle armor and poses a threat to Stark, appearing to offer assistance may perhaps dispel the last trace of doubt in Stark's mind
With a single punch, Xu Nuo sent the short and stout armed thug, who had grabbed him by the collar in the cave, flying out. Even his miserable screams were choked back in his throat, and without uttering a sound, he crashed into a nearby building, never to regain his vitality.
Looking somewhat confused, Stark, Xu Nuo smiled and nodded, "In any case, we are friends. It may be a bit early to say this now. However, I still want to tell you that the favor you granted me today, I will repay you one day."
Although Stark considers Promise to be his good friend, he still harbors concerns about whether to give Promise a set of this super weapon. The mere thought of Promise potentially using this super weapon inappropriately sends chills down his spine.
Due to the mindset brought about by his proficiency with firearms, Xu Nuo recovered quickly. After turning to Stark beside him and giving a slight nod, the two swiftly cleared out all the armed individuals in the town. Those who truly showed no regard for the lives of others were indeed deserving of death
Thank you, my friend. I sincerely appreciate your help. Xu Nuo extended his hand to gently caress the surface of the titanium alloy Iron Man suit, feeling the cold metallic texture, his mind swirling with countless thoughts.
In high spirits, Stark approached a Mark II, having had a few extra drinks at the previous party, his complexion slightly flushed. He turned to Xu Nuo, arms outstretched, and said with a smile, "As a symbol of our friendship, it is now yours."
"Xu! What is wrong with you?" A slightly anxious voice from Stark came through the helmet, instantly awakening Xu Nuo from a moment of confusion
Of course. Stark, with a flash of anger in his gaze, smiled as he raised his glass in a gesture.
I am fine. " Coming back to my senses from the inner demons of my first murder, Xu Nuo shook his head and regained his composure. "Let us end this battle; these scum have no value in continuing to exist.
The dull sound of metal striking the body is intermingled with the painful crack of bones, evoking a sense of discomfort.
Xu, my friend. Evening, Stark's workshop
No ground attacks occurred; Prometheus and Stark simultaneously launched small high-energy missiles into the sky. Both the tanks and the Jericho missiles, along with those armed militants, were all engulfed in the soaring flames and smoke.
At this moment, Xu Nuo let out a long sigh of relief
At this moment, the promise felt akin to winning the jackpot in a lottery. The sensation of being clad in super armor, impervious to bullets coming from all directions, and the unrestrained ability to kill and decide life and death left the promise somewhat disoriented. Within the nature of man lies an inherent desire for slaughter, an instinct that has been passed down through countless millennia since primitive times. It is merely suppressed in modern society.
Xu Nuo is now clad in a suit of metallic armor. Even those nearby who are unaware of its power can feel their legs weaken merely from the sound that makes one's teeth ache, accompanied by a damp sensation between their legs
The subsequent events are quite simple. Unlike the scene in the original storyline where the first-generation Ark reactor, suffering from insufficient energy, was thoroughly beaten, the fully equipped Iron Man with a second-generation Ark reactor, and in the case of two Iron Men, quickly resolved the massive robot of the villain boss after a fierce battle upon their arrival at Stark Industries.
The matter did not end here; it was merely an appetizer. In another town not far away, there were even more armed factions. They were equipped with M1A2 heavy main battle tanks and Stark Industries' top military weapon, the Jericho missile. However, all of this was nothing in the presence of two Iron Men
After a moment of silence, Xu Nuo turned to look at Stark beside him, "My friend, thank you very much for your generosity. I know that what I am saying now may be somewhat difficult for you to understand, but I want to express that your assistance has been crucial for me."
In that case, let us wait for the plot to continue unfolding. Xu Nuo understood Stark's meaning; he also knew that without Stark's authorization to his butler, J.A.R.V.I.S., the Iron Man suit could never truly belong to him. Under these circumstances, Xu Nuo was determined to wait for the further development of the plot
Hmm. Xu Nuo raised her eyebrows slightly and nodded gently, "As you wish"
Just as he clearly saw the villainous boss enter the villa with the intent to harm Stark, he chose to hide himself as if he were completely unaware. It was only after the villainous boss had left that he reappeared to save Stark's life once again
This is exactly the intention
"Xu, my friend." After Xu promised to reinstall a spare arc reactor for Stark following the pile of *books* and diagrams, Stark, with a complex expression, grasped Xu's hand and said, "You have saved my life once again, and I owe you for that."
In order to obtain Iron Man's suit to complete the mission and return home, he promised that he would be willing to do anything.
The act of murder is an extremely significant matter for those who have received universal education in modern society and deeply understand the severity of legal sanctions
"No, no. My friend." Promising smiled as he helped Stark up, looking at him calmly, "You owe me nothing, Tony. We are friends. I am your fan"
"Mr. Stark, the weapons you possess have already impacted national strategic security. I believe we need to sit down and have a discussion." This was said by Phil Coulson, an S.H.I.E.L.D. Level 8 agent, who did not appear during the confrontation with the villain boss, as he addressed Stark.
Once the false identity created by the ring is exposed, it is possible that the promise of spending the second half of his life will be buried deep within some underground laboratory. Only after he reveals everything he knows, including the incident of secretly watching someone bathe during his childhood, might there be a chance for him to find peace
This feeling is truly wonderful. Promises, wearing a metal helmet, gazed at his own fist through the electronic surveillance system, unable to help but murmur to himself
Xu Nuo's gaze flickered slightly, and she nodded with a light smile, "Alright"
Looking back now, my decision in the cave in Afghanistan was indeed very correct. If I had not taken the initiative to hold onto Stark's thigh, if I had not worked tirelessly to gain Stark's trust, then with my current abilities, there would have been no chance of obtaining an Iron Man suit from Stark. The greater possibility would have been either being sent away with a sum of money from Stark or being taken away by S.H.I.E.L.D. In either case, it would mean that the promise of returning home was lost.
