"Enough," he said. "Shut up, Tony, and do a good job of yourself."

"I introspect? Why should I introspect? Because I poked your sore spot?" Tony sneered, "Old man, isn't it very frustrating that the serum hasn't been reproduced, the military must have a backlog of dissatisfaction, right? Your recent actions are too hasty, even I can see that there is something wrong. What? Are you angry when I say it right? "

Howard said, "You don't understand anything."

You are still too young, son, young and frivolous, thinking that you are a genius who can trample everyone and everything under your feet, but in fact it is not the case at all, one day, you will be ruthless by what you do yourself Slap hard.

I won't be able to help then, but my dear Maria, and Karl, they may do something.

"I know a lot more than you think, old man." Tony took his father's reluctance to talk about it as a guilty conscience, and he crossed his arms with a bit of complacency on his face, "I don't want to care about you, old man. Leave me alone, just don't cut my experiment budget, the research and development of new weapons is reaching a critical period, I just need to..."

"Nothing, Tony." Howard interrupted him. "Your budget is gone, and you'll have nothing for a while—throw your party, invite your female models, hang out with Carl, whatever, at You won't get a penny until I'm done with my work."

Tony's expression froze on his face. He wanted to say something, but before he could say it, Howard had already walked away without looking back.

People in their tens of years, their footsteps are still as steady as ever, as if they can continue to walk like this for the next few decades.

"Ah—" Tony yelled, turned around a few times angrily, and finally kicked over the stool next to him.

"Please keep calm, sir." An elegant British male voice rang from Tony's cell phone, "According to your memo, in half an hour, you still have..."

"Cancel! Cancel everything! If you can't cancel, postpone it!" Tony gritted his teeth and said, "What's wrong with the old man! What a fuss!"

After walking around the room for several times, Tony felt a little more comfortable. He stood with his hands on his hips for a while, and asked, "Jarvis, calculate whether the funds I can use now can support this experiment."

"Okay, sir. According to my calculations, the total amount of liquidity you can currently mobilize is [-] million US dollars, which is only enough for you to complete the first four stages of the experiment. Neither the fifth stage of the experiment nor the sixth stage of testing can be completed. A conservative estimate puts the cost of the last two phases at around $[-] million."

Tony stood in the middle of the living room, bit his cheek, thought for a while, and said, "Call Carl."

"Dialing for you."

Tony held up his mobile phone and waited silently. After a few seconds, the call was connected, and Carl's brisk voice came out: "Hello? Tony?"

"Hey K," Tony said, "I want to ask you something, have you got any money lately?"

"Howard warned me in advance not to give you money." Carl blocked Tony's words as soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was full of embarrassment, "He also told my brother, so now I only have two hundred million to give You... need my brother's permission for other money, and I can't move it."

Tony gritted his teeth and scolded Howard severely in his heart, but he only comforted Carl a few words: "It's okay, K, lend me your [-] million first, and I will think of other ways."

Not long after he hung up the phone, he received a transfer notice. Although Carl looked soft, he spoke and acted very vigorously. Tony had learned this many times, but he was not too surprised. He just stared at the string of many People can't even imagine the following numbers in their entire lives, and worry about: Why does he only have such a small amount of money?Where else can I raise money?

Don't look at Tony's incomprehensible man, he is good at making money - not to say how clever his business methods are, of course he understands the basic skills, but he is far inferior to Lex.As handsome and nimble as Luther is, the part he's better at is making money with patents on groundbreaking, industry-changing technologies.

Although this part of Lex.Luther did a good job too, in fact, Luther did a lot better than him.

Damn why do I always think of that bastard who plotted against Prince Karl!

Tony became irritable, but he couldn't control it, because even today, Luther is the only one who made him suffer a lot but had to bite the bullet and hold on, and couldn't even find a suitable reason to retaliate.

People have a very strange psychology. When someone is slightly stronger than you in a certain aspect, you will be envious and jealous of him, but when someone completely beats you in a certain aspect, your feelings for him will be different. Naturally switch to appreciation, respect and even worship.

And of course it is impossible for a narcissist like Tony to be like an ordinary person!

When someone is better than him in a certain aspect, he will dismiss the other party, and believe that sooner or later he will catch up; someone completely beats him in a certain way and will continue to beat him in the days to come When he heard the other party's name, he would explode in place.

So now, when Tony thinks of Lex.Luther felt uncomfortable all over.

Then why do you think of Luther again?It can only be said that the experience of being hanged and beaten by the other party when he was a fledgling was too profound, and Luthor's ability is indeed a topic that cannot be avoided at all. A person who nods and smiles from time to time.

seriously?Are they all serious?At this time, Tony would be very broken and think, this group of people are still full of praise for him after being severely used by Luthor?It seems that these compliments are still from the heart?

"Luthor is a hypocritical villain!" Tony said publicly more than once.

Of course, this sentence has only become a few words of talk in the upper class, and it has been published in third-rate small newspapers a few times, giving people a vague impression that the young Stark and the young Luthor are not on the same page.

But is it something new that Tony isn't right with someone?

It’s a new thing that Tony has a good relationship with someone——When Tony first said good things to Carl, countless newspapers gave up inflammatory remarks and headlines, just blacked and bolded all of Tony’s speeches, and then printed them on the a page.

Probably too shocked to know what to say, and what does "truths speak louder than words" mean?

In short, Tony, who was wandering around in the same place now, thinking about Luthor, couldn't figure out where he could get the money.

He also considered Wayne. To be honest, only Luther and Wayne's family could provide the amount of money he was short of, but the idea of ​​finding Wayne only stayed in his mind for less than half a minute.

In comparison, it was also the first time they met, and neither Luther nor Wayne treated him very kindly. At any rate, Luther hadn't said anything in person, and the young master of the Wayne family opened his mouth as if he had offended him. It was just sarcasm, and he sarcasm several times in a row. This attitude was obviously abnormal. Tony himself felt that he had offended Wayne at some unknown time.

In this respect he has always been very self-aware.

So after much deliberation, the only person he could ask for help was Luthor.

Evil, I didn't expect that one day he would be Tony.Stark also needs to bow his head with the megalomaniac from the metropolis, just thinking about Tony feels very disgusting, but the desire for experiments overwhelms everything, and his love for science and truth briefly overwhelms his dislike of Luthor , Tony took two deep breaths, and finally made up his mind.

"Jarvis, call Luther."

Carl, who was carrying a child standing in the middle of the road to the side of the road thousands of miles away, raised his eyebrows: Isn't it?Tony is going to ask Lex for help?

By the way, Carl doesn’t monitor his friends all the time. He listens to the other’s heartbeat and situation every twelve hours for the little bat that kills him every day. For people like Tony and Diana, he Just listen to them every now and then when I think of them.

Tony's words caught his attention because he mentioned Lex.

When people mentioned "Superman" and "Lex Luthor", he was very sensitive.

Jarvis' voice followed Tony's order: "Sorry, sir, I don't think this will work. Your number is on Mr. Luthor's blacklist."

"what?"

Tony's face was full of confusion.

"It is recorded in the historical records that you once tried to hack into the intranet of the Lex Group. After the failure, you also tried to hack into Mr. Luthor's computer. The former Mr. Luthor gently exposed it, but the latter made him very angry. He will Your number is blacklisted. Shall I contact his secretary for you?"

"Okay, okay!" Tony said angrily, almost rolling his eyes, "Isn't he just trying to hack his computer? Did he hide some secrets in the computer, baby like that? Jarvis, you—"

"Sorry, sir, I can't break through Mr. Luthor's firewall."

The phone rang twice, and Moxi's cold and restrained voice came out: "Hello, this is Moxi."

"I'm Tony Stark, I have something to ask your boss and ask him to remove me from the blacklist!"

"Sorry, Mr. Stark, the boss won't come out for any reason when he's in the lab, unless aliens invade and the end of the world is coming." Mercy's voice was cold, "Do you need me to make an appointment for an interview? "

Tony, who knew how busy Howard was and how busy he was, was very dissatisfied: "Then you are going to tell me that his appointment list is already scheduled for next month, right?"

"No, Mr. Stark, the boss has time tomorrow."

Tony was about to blurt out I depend on Luther for his availability?Can't see it at all?He looked like the kind of workaholic who got up early in the morning to start work, and then worked overtime until late at night before returning home!

If he knew that he had such a guess, Mercy would have laughed and said nothing.

The boss does get up early in the morning, but he will work overtime until late at night?

If such a scene appeared in her dream, she would wake up immediately with fright.
