When Downey Wears a Tin Can [Comprehensive British and American]

tank

Tactical nuclear missiles fired at two different locations exploded in the space wormholes of the Bronx and the Shetland Islands one after the other. The curtain came to an end.

By the time Downey sent the little spider back to Queens and returned to the Union Building with Mark 11's suitcase, Agent Melinda was already waiting in the Union Hall with the post-war spoils.

Clint Barton was the first to return to the mansion, and he took a curious look up after Melinda waved the other agents to put the pile on the ground.

"When did S.H.I.E.L.D. become a scavenger?" Hawkeye picked up a piece of armor that had been shattered to the size of a palm from the ground, which was probably taken directly from the Eternal rebels, "The Avengers Building is not rubbish. Recycling plant."

Melinda: "This is no ordinary metal, Clint."

Barton threw back the piece of armor in his hand, and rubbed the green viscous liquid mixed with dust on his body in distaste: "Otherwise what is it?" He looked at Dr. Banner, "The mysterious alien science and technology?"

The doctor shrugged: "This is not my field of expertise, you can ask Tony yourself when he comes back."

Barton: "...Oh, I'm not really interested in these either."

At this time, a familiar, low-pitched voice with a smile came from outside the hall: "I just heard someone asking for help from a genius."

After taking off the armor, Downey was still in a decent suit, but with a little battle damage. Downey walked into the hall, and he handed the Mark 11 suitcase to the cleaning robot: "Help me put it in the exhibition cabinet. , remember to wipe it off before putting it away." Then he stopped in front of the three of them, "Is there any problem?"

After finishing speaking, Downey saw the pile of armor piled up in the middle of the hall: "...When did S.H.I.E.L.D. become a junk picker?"

Barton next to him immediately let out a cry of trying to hold back his laughter but failed: "Pfft——"

The seventh-level Chinese female agent almost couldn't hold back her shrewd and capable expression: "...This is not ordinary metal, Mr. Stark."

Downey smiled: "I know, just kidding."

He took out his phone, and dragged out a vertical virtual light screen from the screen: "This is not a metal composed of known elements on the earth. Its properties are similar to Nitinol, and it has the ability to repair itself, but no matter in terms of stability or other The data are much higher than Nitinol."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Melinda: "I seem to have just submitted an application to the post-disaster department of S.H.I.E.L.D., and asked them to leave some for me when they deal with it."

Melinda: "That's all, Mister Stark, the rest are pretty much blown to pieces."

Downey nodded, thanked him and said to the air, "Help me put these in the workshop."

Smart butler: "Got it, Sir."

Then three cleaning robots came up from the workshop, and they began to transport the metals downstairs in an orderly manner. After Donnie washed his hands, took a glass of iced drink from the refrigerator, and returned to the hall, he was still standing there. Melinda in situ.

"Anything else?"

Melinda paused, as if she was sorting out her words, before speaking after a while: "A small question, Mr. Stark, about another Iron Man today."

Obviously the lobby has already sat on the sofa. The other two Avengers are also very interested in this topic, and they all looked over immediately after hearing Melinda's question.

Downey raised his eyebrows: "I know, you are all very curious about him, I can only tell you that he followed up with the one who attacked me—"

He paused at this point, and changed to a SHIELD statement: "The Blue Iron Man who was conducting military exercises on the tourist island with me is the same person. As for the others, I think you should check almost all of them. When he arrived, he did not act low-key."

Melinda: "So you gave him his armor technology? Like Gears of War."

Patton, who was sitting on the sofa, interjected in a low voice at this moment: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen General Rhodes for a while."

"Because it's his border guard period recently." Downey explained casually, and then looked at the Chinese female agent again, "This matter is very complicated. Before I think of how to explain it to you, I suggest that you better not provoke him. At least not now."

Tony Stark's face full of "I just don't like seeing anyone" emerged in Downey's mind: "After all, he is not as easy to talk to as I am."

Melinda said deeply: "I understand, Mr. Stark."

In fact, after visiting the island, S.H.I.E.L.D. had contact with this other Iron Man who suddenly appeared.As Downey said, he is not low-key, and it is too easy to find out who he is. The only difficulty is——

The man seemed to have a deep animosity towards S.H.I.E.L.D. and smashed their drone on the first encounter.

It was hard for Melinda to describe that feeling. For a moment, she felt as if she was facing a very difficult enemy, but the opponent's malice was not offensive. He gave her a serious look, then turned around and went back to his dilapidated unfinished building.

The expression was not good, with a sense of inexplicable familiarity, which made Melinda feel that she seemed to have seen him before.

But she confirmed that there was no such person in her memory.

The Chinese female agent didn't say anything more, she called the two low-level agents behind her, and after talking to the Avengers, she turned and left the alliance hall here.

Afterwards, the three left-behind children of the Avengers sat together and ate the cold dinner, and each started to continue their unfinished work.

Downey returned to the work room, took off his suit jacket and hung it aside, and looked at the armor fragments placed on a pile of utensils in the completely transparent glass compartment next to the work room.

——To be honest, he is somewhat excited now.

The current overall technological level of the earth and Tony Stark's thinking that has not diverged to the universe have limited the growth of steel armor. As early as when Mark 6 and Mark 7 were returned to Tony Stark and Mark 11 was recreated Downey was aware of the problem.

The real world is not like comics and movies where you can draw a set of mechs with cool appearance and extravagant functions every once in a while. Brushes and CG technology are not enough to support who they fight, until the later Mark 46 and Mark 85, and The most well-known sword in the stone, the god group and the infinite gem armor in the comics all need to be made by someone.

As a result, countless questions swarmed in about material issues, reactor upgrade issues, and armor circuit replacement issues. Downey felt that he could probably understand where Tony Stark's anxiety came from, because he was now I can't wait to split one day into ten days.

In this superhero universe full of unknowns, no one knows who their next enemy will be.

And if Donnie remembers correctly.

As Mark 46, the raw material that was widely used in steel armor technology after the Blood Edge armor, the appearance of the first memory metal in the comics came from the purification of the technology of the ancient civilization of the Eternal Race.

If he can have a certain reserve of memory metal now, at least he can temporarily skip the research and development of Mark 11 to Mark 25, and directly create Mark 26 that can fuse gamma rays, and the absorption and regeneration of memory metal will only make the Mark 26, originally made of Nitinol alloy, has more stable performance and stronger three-dimensional data.

"The instrument is ready, Sir."

Downey looked at the simulated three-dimensional pattern on the virtual light screen in front of him, reached out and clicked on it a few times: "Try the first refining method."

"Injecting an equal amount of solution into the experimental metal—"

Downey watched the instrument start to operate on the light screen, while adjusting the deviation value of each step due to various factors, and then half a minute later——

"No relevant reaction detected."

Downey stretched out his hand and swiped twice on the light screen: "Try an oxidizing dissolver."

"Injecting an equal amount of solution into the experimental metal—"

"No relevant reaction detected."

Downey slowly frowned after trying all the twelve metal dissolvers currently in Stark Industries' possession and all of them were ineffective.

He seemed to have encountered his first problem since he came into this world, and then he tried every other method he could think of, but the final result was still nothing.

It's very similar to getting some kind of high-level item when playing a game. Because of the level limit, you can only watch it, but there is no way to use it.

Long-term stagnation in the progress of experiments will only make people more and more irritable.

"It has been detected that your body is in an overloaded state." After an unknown amount of time, the voice of the smart housekeeper sounded again in the laboratory, "You need to rest."

Donnie pressed the sour brows, raised his head from the virtual light screen in front of him where several formulas had been densely written but had been rejected one by one after the experiment, and glanced at the clock.

"It's not until twelve o'clock."

Smart butler: "Physical reactions can't lie, Sir."

Downey didn't speak. He really felt that his current state was not suitable for these brain-intensive research, because too many failures would only make people's thinking more and more blocked and rigid.

"Let Benben help me make a cup of coffee." He let out a long sigh of relief, and before the mechanical arm in the corner was about to press the coffee machine, he stood up from the chair again, "Forget it, I'll go by myself."

There is no milk and maple syrup in the workshop.

Let him drink black coffee, he would rather drink chlorophyll.

The time is [-]:[-] in the evening, the captain and the others will rush back to the alliance tomorrow, Dr. Banner is probably still busy with his experiments on gamma rays, Patton is patrolling the Bronx and Queens with the S.H.I.E.L.D. The entire Avengers Building was very quiet.

When Downey walked up the stairs in the workshop, what he saw was a lady standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with her back turned to look at the bustling Wall Street outside in the hall with lights on.

At first Downey thought it was Agent Melinda who had gone and returned, but when the other party heard the movement and turned around.

"Natasha?" Downey was a little surprised, "Have you guys returned to New York yet?"

The Black Widow standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows is still wearing her black agent uniform, with bandages on both palms and an obvious wound on her face. How thrilling the battle experienced in the Teland Islands.

Natasha's expression was very calm: "The captain and the others will arrive tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared from the bracelet on her wrist. Black Widow frowned, reached out and took off the shock bracelet, without explaining why she returned to the alliance first, and walked straight past Donnie to put the bracelet on. on the tray of the cleaning robot.

Downey walked to the refrigerator and took out the iced latte that was ground inside. After seeing Natasha's movements, he asked casually, "Is there something wrong with the bracelet?"

Natasha, who was already planning to walk out of the hall, seemed not expecting that the other party would take the initiative to talk to her. She was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It was hacked by those rebels, but that's not important." After finishing speaking, she seemed to think that was it Leaving was a bit blunt, so out of politeness, she asked one more question, "Aren't you going to rest?"

If it is said that this alliance can at least say a word or two to Tony Stark before this, apart from Bruce Banner, who was originally good-tempered, there is probably only the only lady, Black Widow.

"I'm doing an experiment." Donnie picked up the cup on the dish rack and poured a cup of coffee, "But it seems that I encountered a little problem at the beginning."

Natasha: "You might be able to ask someone else." She paused, then added, "But that shouldn't be possible."

With Tony Stark's personality, when encountering a problem, don't talk about asking others for help, just let go of his posture and discuss it, which seems to him to be something that will never happen.

Donnie froze for a moment, and didn't recover until Natasha left the hall.

It's like a problem suddenly found another solution.

Yeah, why would he ignore this.

——There is more than one Iron Man in this world!

Donnie raised his head and drank the coffee in the cup, and put the empty cup upside down on the tray of the cleaning robot. He paused when he saw the bracelet on the tray, and finally reached out to put the bracelet away, and then returned to work. between.

Facing the screen full of failure formulas, he turned to Tony Stark's number from the address book.

Press Dial.

The phone was picked up after a long beep.

On the other end of the phone: "What are you doing?"

Probably a physiological reaction.

Downey heard that familiar voice and the not-so-kind tone for a moment.

Almost unable to keep up with the action, he pressed hang up.
