Clarke

A few days later, Stark Group, seventeenth floor.

Tony stood in the center of the room, spinning in a circle with his arms outstretched.

"How's it going? Do you like it? This floor was originally where I researched in the company. Now it has been fully updated and will definitely meet your needs."

Clark stood at the door and looked around the room. Clark was very satisfied with the various cutting-edge equipment.

"If you give this place to me, how will you do research in the future? Will you always be at home?"

Tony smiled mysteriously, came to the window, pointed to a building under construction not far away and said, "See that one? I just bought it and it is being renovated now. I named it Stark Building. Oh, by the way, the design was also done by me. It will definitely open your eyes.”

Clark shrugged, "Maybe, I'm looking forward to it."

After speaking, Clark came to the console and put his suitcase on the table.

"Then as your employee, let your boss accept your investment now."

Clark opened the box and found three bottles of potion and a syringe inside.Clark took a white mouse from the side.

Clark looked at Tony's subtle expression, smiled and said, "Yes, it's a very clichéd form of human enhancement."

Clark injected the drug into the mice.

The mouse was quiet for a minute, and suddenly its breathing accelerated. The monitor next to it showed that the mouse's heart rate accelerated rapidly, reaching twice the normal level.

The body of the white mouse swelled in a circle, and muscles visible to the naked eye appeared on the originally cute and petite body.The white mouse stood blankly in the transparent box, seemingly unaware of its own changes.

Clark and Tony looked at the data on the detector, and suddenly the data began to recover after a minute.The mouse also returned to its original size within ten seconds.

Tony frowned and looked at the restored data, thinking that the experiment had failed.

After more than ten seconds, the white mouse lay down and became motionless. All the values ​​on the detector dropped a lot, and the white mouse seemed to be dying.

Tony shook his head, "If that's all animal testing is, I don't think human testing can be done yet."

Clark smiled and brought up a graph.On the chart, the strength, speed, reflexes and other values ​​of the mouse almost doubled during the period when the medicine took effect, but after the medicine took effect, they dropped back to their original values, as if nothing had happened.

Wait, act like nothing happened

"It's a one-off" Tony suddenly understood.

"Yes, it's not the Superman serum." Clark took out the limp mouse in the box. "It can only take effect for a while. You can increase the dosage to extend the effective time. Although it will prolong the period of weakness after taking effect, but It has almost no side effects. Just wait for the period of weakness to replenish energy.”

Tony stared at the mouse and asked: "How much does a bottle of this medicine cost?"

"It's just the refining of some chemical substances. This is not your Armor Tony. There is no need for highly intelligent AI, no need for rare metals, no need for assembly, debugging, and painting. Just a fully automatic assembly line, and they will have a continuous supply of energy. Produce it." Clark raised his index finger, "One hundred thousand each. This is the cost in the laboratory, and mass production can reduce it."

Tony picked up a bottle of potion in the suitcase, brought it to his eyes, and looked at the light blue potion through the light.

"Why is it blue?"

Clark was stunned for a moment, "Well, actually it can also be red, yellow, purple or green. Blue is because this color is more reassuring and less resistant to injections."

"Does it have a name?"

Clark shook his head "I'm not very good at naming."

“How about plan b”

"Well, don't think about it anymore."

......

Christmas Eve, inside a military base.

"This is plan b"

Tony raised his glass and shouted: "For plan B" and drank the champagne in one gulp.

Military representatives also raised their glasses. Although this potion only has twice the improvement effect and is nothing compared to the super serum, its almost zero side effects and low price allow it to arm army soldiers in large quantities. This This medicine, just like its name, gives every fighting soldier a real "plan B".

The big guys outside the experimental site toasted to celebrate the deal, and the soldiers inside the site sat down to rest and recover their strength after the effects of the medicine wore off.

Emil Bronski clenched his fists in despair, recalling the power in his body just now. The inflated mentality caused by the instant power still remained in his heart. As a veteran who has served for 20 years, Bronski could not even dream of it. Longing for that power.

Bronsky clenched his fists, remembering someone's invitation, and secretly made up his mind.

Blonsky left practice and made a phone call.

"I applied to participate in the experiment." After all, Blonsky could not resist the yearning for more powerful power.

The person on the other side of the phone was in a much better mood and said, "Come to my place to report tomorrow and I will give you the most powerful strength."

Tony walked away from the crowd to the balcony and called Clark, who had returned to Kent Farm.

"Yes my friend, everything went perfectly, just as I thought it would. By the way, say hello to your parents for me."

After hanging up the phone, Tony drank champagne and had new ideas about the armor.

Clark hung up the phone and shook his head thinking of Tony's sinister act of selling a potion for $12.

After touching the head of Hans next to him, he returned to the house and watched TV with Jonathan and Martha. The family of four happily enjoyed a rare warm moment.

At night, Clark came to the spaceship in the forest and stroked the outer shell of the spacecraft. Clark said to Joe: "I always feel that the peaceful days are coming to an end."

Joe emerged and looked at the sky. "Maybe" looked at Clark again, "How does it feel to fly?"

"Excellent" Clark clenched his fists and looked at his fists. "Since helping Tony defeat Stan last time, my strength has begun to grow again, and that day I floated directly from the ground."

"You have been able to break away from the constraints of the earth's gravity. With a little practice, nothing in the world can be faster than you." Joe looked at Clark with relief.

Clark smiled and said, "You don't need to be able to fly to be a scientist." After that, he returned to Kent Farm.

Beside the spaceship, Qiao smiled mysteriously.

"Maybe."

......

Los Angeles, Cliff House.

Clark looked at Tony, who was being helped by the robot to put on the armor, and raised his eyebrows, "I still don't appreciate your exaggerated appearance."

Tony was poked left and knocked right by the robot hand, and he oops twice from time to time.

"This is in line with my identity, and this is a classic color scheme, okay?" Tony took the time to turn around and retort to Clark.

Clark shook his head, "I still don't understand why you need me to come here to test the armor."

"Well... I installed a new weapon on this armor, and the inspiration is related to you." Tony finally put on the armor, moved his body, and did a backflip on the spot like a superhero.

Tony came to the three prepared targets, raised his right hand and clenched his fist, palm down.

"Buzz" A red laser shot out from the back of Tony's hand. Tony moved his arm, and the three alloy targets were divided into two halves by the laser.

Tony exhaled, looked at the helmet that showed only half of the energy left, and shook his head.He opened his helmet and turned around and asked Clark: "How is it?"

Clark shrugged, "Yes, concentrating the energy into a line saves more energy than my eyes, but the power is a bit weaker."

Tony looked at Clark speechlessly, "Not everyone is like you. Are you really not an alien?"

"Maybe." Clark smiled and did not answer Tony's question.

Tony removed the arm armor and showed Clark the damaged laser emitter. "It's not perfect yet, the energy consumption is too high, and the launch port cannot withstand such a high-power output."

Clark looked at Tony's chest. Six bomb fragments were embedded in his internal organs. The reactor in his chest maintained a magnetic force to attract the fragments and prevent them from penetrating into his internal organs.Some of the blood vessels near the reactor appear to be the wrong color.

"How do you plan to solve the problem of palladium poisoning?"

Tony looked a little unnatural and raised a large glass of something like vegetable juice on the table. "Of course it's through vitamin supplements. Do you want some?"

Clark sighed, "You know this only provides some relief."

Tony finished replenishing his "vitamins" and rubbed the cup in his hand. "Yes, but there is no good way yet."

"I plan to start researching variants of the potion in the next few days, trying to activate human cells and improve resistance." Clark looked at Tony.

Tony only comforted himself by thinking that Clark could take more than ten years or even longer from the development to actual use of this potion.Waving his hand, "Then I'll thank you in advance."

Jarvis suddenly said: "Sir, someone has contacted me, it's Nick Fury."

"Is Tony Clark there with you?" Fury's face appeared in the air, looking very gloomy. "Turn on the news, something happened in Harlem."

Jarvis turned on the news thoughtfully, and a female reporter stood in front of the camera and screamed loudly.

"The live broadcast we are seeing in Manhattan, New York, shows two giants who suddenly appeared and were fighting in the middle of the street."

A car was thrown near reporters and the live broadcast disappeared.

Clark and Tony looked at each other, and Tony took off his armor and replaced it with another one.

"Are you going to drive or something...wtf" Tony looked at the floating Clark in shock.

Clark smiled and said, "You're not the only one who can fly, right?"

Tony laughed, "Open the door Jarvis, let the racing begin."

As soon as the door next to him opened, Tony flew out first with a "woohoo".
