born. said Jarvis.

Tony managed to free a leg.

"Laura."

"Ok?"

"I'm hungry," Tony said seriously.

Laura couldn't help but rolled her big eyes now.

"My lunch has been waiting for you for a long time. I'll heat up the stew again." She turned and went upstairs, and heard Tony's voice behind her:

"One more little problem. When I came back from the circle, the people at the Air Force Base attacked me for an illegal trespassing drone - but then they suddenly let me go. Did you call Roddy?"

"No, no, I don't."

"Oh." Tony finally pulled the other leg out of it too. "Thanks, Miss Government." He blinked his right eye at Laura.

The author has something to say: Gemila seems to be a fictional town, and I refer to the Afghan region.Afghanistan is 8 hours and 30 minutes ahead of the US.

The distance between Afghanistan and the United States is very far. Even if flying at supersonic speed, Nini can fly in the sky long enough.

Another thing I have to say about Jarvis:

I feel that Jarvis's setting is that he can only exist in one place at a time, but the most basic security system is left in other places (entering passwords or being authorized to enter, etc.).He can know the situation in other places through the Internet, but his "person" is with Tony.Moreover, although he has his own thoughts, he has shown considerable autonomy in communication (he can guess the master's mind or make serious jokes), but he is still just an artificial intelligence, and he must have the master's relevant instructions to perform actions , not yet fully autonomous (unlike Vision).I don't know if my understanding is wrong, but this article is written from such a point of view, please know.

Chapter 12

Tony called Miss Bertz over.

"I've got something to do for her," Tony said as he wolfed down the stew.

When Miss Pep Bots came to Malibu, she was taken aback by the horror of the villa.

"What's going on?!" She opened her mouth wide, looking down through the big hole in the living room like Laura did back then.

"It doesn't seem like I haven't been here for a long time-why is it as if the house is going to be demolished?"

She looked at Laura full of doubts, and Laura could only apologize with a smile: "The boss is waiting for you below."

The situation in the basement studio was even worse than upstairs.Pep stood by the collapsed wall, watched carefully for a while and said, "Is this—is this a weapon? I thought you stopped developing weapons, Tony?"

Tony is gesticulating in front of the monitor at this time.The upper body of the Mark II armor is chained behind him as he modifies it.

"To be precise, I no longer provide weapons to others. Some things are better in my own hands," he said.

"What are you going to do?" Pep looked at Mark Two and said, "Are those bullet holes? You, you went to Gamila and rescued the hostages, didn't you, Tony?"

Tony said slightly surprised: "Wow, I didn't expect your brain to turn so fast."

"It was reported on the news. And Colonel Roddy only held a press conference in the afternoon to announce that the United States is not responsible for what happened in Gamila." Pep paused and said out of breath, "Tony, you are committing suicide. "

"I call that responsible," Tony said. "My stuff is in the wrong place—and I have to fix that mistake myself."

Pep took a deep breath.She turned to Laura and asked, "Johnson, are you just watching him mess around?"

"No need to blame anyone. You know my temper, Pep, and no one can stop me," Tony said.

"At least you don't have to go in person—you can tell Roddy, you can ask the military to—"

"Pep." Tony interrupted her.He held Pep's shoulders and said seriously, "You know the army can't do it. I can. Once you have that ability, but choose to do nothing, then when something bad happens It is your responsibility. Besides, selling weapons to terrorists is indeed a mistake made by Stark Industries, and I am only trying to correct this mistake. We produce weapons to maintain peace, not to create chaos."

For a moment Laura felt that she had been slapped in the head.

She thought of wizards.

An ordinary No-Maj can understand the truth, can use science and technology to make up for the lack of magic power, and take on responsibilities that obviously don't belong to him; what about wizards?Kong has magical powers, but he is self-sufficient, content with his own small circle, and indifferent to the outside environment——(Note ①)

Pep suddenly reacted and asked, "Who sold the weapons to the terrorists?"

"Obadiah Stan. Speaking of which, Pep, I need you to do something for me." Tony returned to the work table, found a small USB flash drive and handed it to Pep, saying, "This is Cipher chip. I need you to go to my office, hack into the computer mainframe, and get back all the recent weapon shipment lists."

Pep held the USB flash drive and looked at him solemnly.

Tony didn't care, he had already turned back to the monitor.

"It could be in the administrative folder, or it might be on the hidden disk. If that's the case, you just look for the one with the lowest number."

"What are you going to do if I get the list back?"

"Same old thing. If it's a backdoor deal, I'll stop it. Find my weapon and destroy it."

"Tony," Pep said, frowning. "You know I'd do anything for you. But I can't be the one to push you to your death. Tony, you're killing yourself."

"All I want is the list," Tony said. "I said, it's my responsibility."

"Then I resign." Pep threw the USB flash drive on the table.

Tony said loudly: "For so many years, you have always stood by my side. At the beginning, I relied on destruction everywhere to make war money. When others called me a 'death merchant', you didn't leave me. Now I want to protect those who suffer because of me." When I was with you, you were going to go far away from me?"

"If I didn't have this belief, I would have died." Tony sat down and looked down at his chest. "Pep, I'm not crazy. I just finally understand my mission." With a rare sincere look on his face, he looked at Pep firmly, "And I know I'm doing the right thing, I just Know."

Miss Bertz was persuaded at last.She came back and took the USB drive from the table.

After Bertz left, Laura said, "I think you did the right thing. But will Miss Bertz be in danger?"

"Obadia hasn't completely broken with us yet. And it's my office, Pep will be fine."

"I always thought it was kind of dangerous."

"Then you call Roddy?" Tony said and went back to the monitor, "Go ahead, I have work to do. Jarvis? I think the exhaust system needs to be enhanced. I've been in it for a long time A little stuffy."

"I have no contact with Roddy." Laura retorted in a low voice.

After thinking about it, Laura felt that the matter was a little suspenseful.She went back upstairs to the bathroom and called Coulson again.

Laura did not expect the danger to come so quickly.

It was the second night, and Laura was in the kitchen preparing supper.Without warning, she was suddenly electrified and her body twitched.As she collapsed, Laura saw Obadiah Stan's face.

Tony was completely wrong.Stan didn't just fight them, Obadiah Stein wanted them dead.

"Jia... Weiss..." Laura spoke with difficulty, "Jia..." Her mouth opened and closed, but it was all in vain.She couldn't make a sound.

"Wand... wand fly..." Laura's tears flowed down, "Tony..."

Laura was very pale, and could not hold back her own tears.Her mind was full of Cecilia's face lifted out of the Forbidden Forest eight years ago.What a lively girl Cecilia is, it was she and Lillian who accompanied her through the childhood when she was abandoned by her parents.Although she is an orphan, she has always had the rosiest complexion and the brightest smile in the world...

But when she came out of the Forbidden Forest, her face was gray marble... She could no longer happily call her name, nor hold herself in a warm hand...

Tony... Is there another person going to disappear in front of her like this?

After struggling for an unknown amount of time, Laura finally managed to summon the wand into her hand.She gave herself a quick resuscitation, but with little success.Stan didn't know what to use. The wizard's healing magic was always ineffective against No-Maj high-tech damage.Laura lay on the ground panting for a while, and finally got up.

"Tony...Tony..." She staggered towards the basement, calling out Tony's name.

In the studio, Tony Stark was lying on the ground, with bulging veins on his head, wide-eyed eyes, a face like gold paper, and a big hole in his chest—his reactor was gone.

"Merlin...Merlin!" Laura pointed her wand at Tony, but couldn't think of a spell.She doesn't have a spell to solve the current situation, Tony doesn't have a reactor, and the fragments of shells left in his body will gradually rush to his heart, and he will die!

reactor!Laura suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "The handbag is flying!" she shouted.

Tony heard the sound, turned his head with difficulty, and stared at Laura.

There was a sound in the air.Laura's handbag roared in from the first floor and went straight to the owner's arms.She quickly dropped her wand, reached in and fumbled
