[Comprehensive British and American] Shoebill stork is passing by

"Ping-pong—"

"Ping ping pong pong-"

One after another.

Stark is knocking and knocking, his strength has not fully recovered, and he is sweating and has no strength after knocking twice. The feeling of weakness all over his body tells him that he is recovering from a serious illness. If he wants to complete his plan, In any case, he needs to rely on others for help, but he doesn't trust others.

Turning around in the existing options, Stark took a fancy to the Fool who was always staring at him in the corner.

"You have nothing to do anyway, right?" Stark rubbed his hands and approached the Fool with a smirk.

The always motionless Fool finally reacted, perhaps feeling the crisis of being calculated, he retracted his neck and narrowed his nictitating membrane.

stare--

At this time, Stark was used to the Fool's death gaze, and he didn't care at all. He hooked his fingers and said, "You like to be fed, don't you? I can press that button for you at regular intervals. In exchange, you have to do things for me."

The Fool seems unmoved.

"I don't want to?" Stark thought for a while, and continued: "Then you are just the whalebill stork raised by the old bat. What do I care about Stark? Why should I feed you?"

Hearing that he refused the feeding, the Fool fully opened the nictitating membrane and stared at the human in front of him.

Seeing that there seemed to be hope for this matter, Stark continued his efforts: "But if you do things for me, then you can be regarded as my employee, and I will pay you," he pointed and pressed a button, "It is also a matter of course It should, shouldn't it?"

It seems that it makes sense?

The Fool tilted his head slightly, only about 5 degrees, which is his usual movement when thinking.

After thinking for a moment, the Fool nodded.

agreed.

Reaching a reasonable deal is better than grabbing human afternoon tea every time, isn't it?

Simply fantastic!

Stark jumped a little in his heart, and continued: "Come with me, I need you to knock something for me." He regarded the whalebill stork as another extra silent person who would not respond, and forced himself to Forced to babble, "Don't worry, it will definitely not exceed your ability. In fact, this matter should be extra simple for you."

After all, according to the information, one of the Fool's attack methods is "chattering".

And the hammering of "thousands of tempering" requires such a strong and continuous force.

"Are you afraid of high temperature?" Stark asked specifically just in case.

The Fool looked at the red-hot steel and shook his head.

Well, then you still need to use tools, but fortunately, there are ready-made ones here.

……Um?

How can there be ready-made?

Stark was stunned.

"What the hell is this?!"

He picked up a strange wrought iron hammer. It didn't look like it was held by someone. It was not horizontal. The angle at which the handle was tilted was strange and very wrong.

Stark gestured for a long time, and put it on The Fool's mouth.

"..." Oh, he solved the case.

"Emotional old bat will also enslave you." Sigh.

Thinking about it, Batman has always been an ultimate demon who can use living people as machines. Now there is such a strong, powerful, and very obedient whalebill. With Batman's personality, how could he let him go? ?

Stark tried to hand the hammer to the Fool, and sure enough, it caught it immediately, and the movements were naturally skillful, and it seemed that he had done a lot of work.

Then put the things that need to be forged in the designated place, and the fool will beat them by himself.

Very worry-free and effort-saving.

perfect!

"That's why you used my stuff to enslave my bird?" Batman who just came back took off his hood and looked at Stark with disgust, "Did the doctor say you can enter the private laboratory?" ?”

"No, but that's not important." Stark was tossing about the design without looking up.

Batman didn't care too much. He took a shower first, dried it and put on a clean bat suit again. Then he came over and saw that Stark had completed most of the design drawings.

Mark - Morning Star.

Apparently a whole new set of armor.

"Unexpected," Batman muttered, and under Stark's questioning gaze, he said, "I thought you'd want to grab the one you had."

"You mean the one that came from another parallel?" Stark did not deny that he did have this idea, but because of some sauces, he gave up the original plan and started to forge his own new armor, "The two A Stark must have two sets of armor to play."

"I told you Stark Industries is still in operation."

"But I don't trust them. Why are you hiding in this cave and secretly making your own equipment instead of entrusting it to someone you can trust..." Halfway through the sentence, Stark suddenly paused, and he noticed that Batman He is in a bad mood, but his mood is not good either, "Isn't it because there is no one to trust, so I can only retreat to my own safe zone and do it myself?"

No one can live in a cave all year round.

Even Batman needs to go out and let the air go, let alone Stark who is flamboyant by nature.

After being "imprisoned" for so long, it's good enough that he hasn't gone crazy. Stark feels that even Batman can't ask for more from himself.

He asked: "When I finish this set, I will go out for a walk."

Batman's objection is also strong: "You've been underestimated by a psychiatrist."

"His evaluation of you must be worse." Stark retorted in seconds.

Batman:  …

That's right.

The psychiatrist was quite unlucky when he met them. The patients in charge were more difficult to deal with than the other. Certificate of Rehabilitation".

The doctor is tired.

Stark silently mourned for the unlucky doctor for 0.3 seconds in his heart.

"By the way, Crispy Peach hasn't woken up yet?" Stark suddenly remembered something.

The treatment that the Burke's parrot received with him at the time was only because the medical technology for animals was very limited at that time, so the recovery was not good. After that, the end of the world came, and human beings retreated steadily. Regression, let alone what to do with animals, but Batman has no time here, so he can only make do.

The illness of that peach was delayed in this way, only relying on the life support cabin.

After Stark woke up, he had a lot of free time, so he started to toss about these things. In theory, the modified life support capsule should be able to wake up the little bird.

"Are you addicted to sleep?"

Thinking of his bad state in the "sleep" before, Stark was a little worried.

Although the bird almost killed him, it wasn't the bird's problem. At that time, it should be under the control of Hydra and didn't understand what it was doing.

He didn't want to see the bird wake up mad and pluck itself.

Batman shook his head.

"I don't know. At present, there are only two possibilities: It has indeed died of consciousness, but it was hanged by an instrument, and the body cannot die. Second, its consciousness is too weak to wake up, or it simply Don't want to wake up."

"If we are the latter," Stark didn't like to choose the one that sounded hopeless when making assumptions, "what can we do?"

"The ability of strange shadows."

The abnormal image can amplify the ability of others or the consciousness signal of the main body, and also has a special influence, which can mobilize other people's emotions, memories, etc. Although it is not an active operation type, it is very useful.

Stark blinked his eyes, looked sideways at the Fool who was blacksmithing step by step, and asked, "Then why don't you try?"

"Not sure." Batman replied succinctly.

To put it bluntly, Batman's trust in Alien Shadow is limited, and most of the time it's just because there is no other choice.

And, when the peach wakes up, whether it will cause more trouble or provide help, everything is unknown. They are not sure to control this matter at all now, even if they can wake up the mutant Burke's parrot, it will be impossible. It shouldn't be now.

"Wait a minute," Batman said.

……

A signal sounds.

The eyes of the two people shifted accordingly, and they came to the front of the console. Batman opened the operation interface twice and jumped to another special receiving port.

Two signals are blinking.

One is a silhouette of a brain.

The other is the bat logo with a hollow question mark in the middle.

A special fan of aesthetics.

Stark pointed to his head and asked, "What does this mean?"

"The treatment of the variant Burke's parrot can enter the next stage, and the key person has been found."

"...?" Stark asked, "Who?"

"Professor X."

That's good news.

Stark pointed to the bat mark with the question mark again: "What about this one?"

"This means that there are guests coming." Batman narrowed his eyes, "and it's the 'guest' we are all familiar with."

For some reason, Stark subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the corner of the room.

I saw the fool who has not moved for thousands of years.

"Do you think the whalebill stork over there will come over?"

"do not know."

Batman was taken aback for a moment, and also took a look at the Fool, thinking it was impossible.

"Although it can fly, it can't move freely in the cracks."

On the contrary, climbing in that kind of place is more efficient and safer. If you want to fly, it is easy to bump into things, and the wings as big as the Fool cannot pass through the narrow place.

Birds cannot fly without space to flap their wings, and at the same time, birds like the Fool, who live along rivers, are not born with the ability to live on cliffs in their blood.

Give the simplest example.

Big birds often need a certain amount of space when they land, and some even have to jump twice to relieve the impact.

This also means that the Shoebill cannot land on the narrow platform close to the cliff at all. Once it encounters a place that cannot pass by during the flight, it will face great danger.Sliding means falling into the abyss, and there is not enough wind in the gap, and there is not enough space, it is impossible for it to fly again in mid-air.

Batman: "..."

"I'm not that stupid." He said firmly.

Stark whistled, and said in a low voice: "It's hard to say."
