Humanoids on the way to upgrade [Comprehensive British and American]

Zoe now lives in a rental apartment near Washington Square Park. She can only live here after her aunt's house was smashed into a big hole by a man in red and blue tights on the roof.

Of course, Zooey is not short of money. The pocket money given by her aunt every month is enough for her daily expenses, but Zooey would not ask her aunt for money unless she encountered special circumstances. More than enough for her tuition and living expenses.

The decoration of this apartment is very simple, one bedroom, one bathroom, and a small kitchen. At the end of the corridor, there is a laundry room on the left.The only downside was that the apartment was facing the street, and Zoe woke up every morning to the sound of the car's gas pedal and horn.

A gray-brown owl rested quietly on the window frame. When it saw Zoe push the door to change shoes, its round eyes immediately looked at her, and it clicked and smacked its lips, trying to get her attention.

Zoe took off the envelope tied to the taupe owl's leg, took out a piece of beef jerky from the side drawer, and brought it to the owl's mouth.The owl held the beef jerky in its mouth, grunted contentedly in its throat, spread its wings and disappeared into the night.

The envelope read "To Ms. Fox, Potion Maker".

"Okay," Zooey thumped her sore shoulder, "Looks like there's work to do again."

Zoe's regular customer placed a potion order and wanted to ask her to help make a topical potion for treating dragon pox. This is an unpopular potion and few people know how to make it, so the customer paid a large The deposit has already been transferred to her account at Gringotts - this is a very good deal, and of course Zooey will not refuse others to give her money.

She took out a well-sealed suitcase from under the bed, which had been cast with a space extension spell, and stored many potion ingredients that needed to be kept carefully.

Zoe took out her wand from her coat pocket, lit the magic fire under the cauldron, and added strange medicinal materials such as cuttlefish juice, salamander claws, and beetle eyes to the cauldron. Over time, the keys in the crucible It turned dark green and began to spit bubbles slowly.

……

"Jarvis?" Tony Stark rubbed his temples, "How many hours have passed since I fell asleep?"

"You only fell asleep for 40 minutes, Sir." The artificial intelligence butler replied with an elegant British accent, "There are still 20 minutes until the data is calculated, and you can continue to rest before then."

"No, I think I need a late-night snack more, order me a pizza." Tony picked up the cold coffee next to the workbench and drank it.

Jarvis said: "Sorry, Sir. It's two o'clock in the morning, and the nearby pizza restaurant that provides takeaway service has closed, and I don't recommend that you eat too many calories and fat at this time. You can make a glass of milk Cereal, some fruit in moderation, the food is in the fridge."

"Oh, should I be glad that the refrigerator is not empty?" Tony opened the refrigerator door, and when he saw a bottle of cold beer in a corner, he cheered like a child, "That's great, I thought I Drink it up."

He searched left and right and couldn't find the bottle opener, so he made do with a wrench to open the cold beer.

"The food in the refrigerator was put in by Miss Potts." Jarvis said, "This is already the eighth bottle of beer you've drunk today. Too much alcohol in your blood will endanger your health, Sir."

"Alcohol acts as a refresher for me," Tony burped, "it will improve my work efficiency."

He maintained a high-intensity research work for several months, his face was very haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't even have time to shave his beard.But it's all worth it. After a series of calibrations, the flight balance system is finally ready to be debugged.

Tony was checking the injectors at the foot of the Ironsuit, and he had to find something to do for himself.

The percentage displayed by the progress bar on the computer screen is constantly increasing.

"Fifteen more minutes..." Tony murmured.

In another 15 minutes, he will be able to fly into the sky wearing the steel suit he made himself.

……

Zoe stirred the potion clockwise three times. With her free left hand, she reached into the suitcase where the potion was stored, and slipped out a living and colorful poisonous snake from inside.

She took out a transparent glass bottle, pinched the viper's neck to force it to open its mouth, and put its fangs into the mouth of the glass bottle.After collecting the venom, Zooey carried the snake back into the suitcase.

Next is the most critical step in making dragon pox topical medicine. If the venom of the poisonous snake is added too much, this medicine will become a poison that sees blood and seals the throat. If it is added in an appropriate amount, this medicine will become Turmeric, which means that the medicine is made.

Zooey carefully dropped a drop of venom into it, and then stirred it carefully.

She took out her phone to check the time, 01:35.

The waiting time for the potion to boil is 15 minutes.

In another 15 minutes, the reward of 600 Galleons will fly into Zoe's Gringotts account.

She set an alarm on her phone and hummed a song in a good mood.

……

Tony stood on the console, letting the mechanical arms around him put on the steel suit for him.The structure of the battle suit is very complicated, even with the help of a mechanical arm, it will take a lot of work to put it on.

"The next upgrade will make it easier to wear the suit." Tony wrote this down in his heart.

"Are you ready? Jarvis." Tony exhaled, "I said three two one, you light the fire."

"No problem, sir."

The skylight on the top floor of Stark Tower opened slowly, and Tony could see the dark night sky as soon as he looked up. He inevitably felt a little nervous, but this tension could not make him retreat.

"Get ready, three, two, one—go!"

Bright and sharp flames spewed out from the limbs of the steel suit, and the powerful propulsion sent Tony into the sky.

"Oh!!!" Tony roared excitedly, this kind of advance to the sky brought him infinite joy, and his chest was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

He manipulated the thrusters on the steel suit to change direction, trying to fly around the entire New York City.

Tony flew higher and higher, and the lights of the whole New York City were connected together. The car lights followed the track of the road and shuttled back and forth.

While Tony was enjoying the fun of flying freely, a red warning suddenly appeared on the holographic screen of the steel suit mask.

Jarvis reported the current status of the steel suit to Tony with a nice British accent.

"Sir, there is a disorder in the program of the flight system, which will affect the balance of the suit."

"Calculate for me, what are the chances of me falling?" Tony tried his best to maintain a smooth flight.

"At present, we can safely land after a buffer—if nothing else happens."

As if to confirm what Jarvis said, the left foot of the steel suit seemed to be stuck in the injector, and it stopped spraying flames.

"Jarvis, I never knew you could speak so effectively!" Tony rolled in the air performing a free fall, and the trajectory of the steel suit slid along with a trail of black smoke.

"...The self-inspection is complete, and the foot injector circuit is damaged due to overheating." Jarvis's British accent is still unhurried, "Sir, you are falling at a speed of 11.16m/s, and it is estimated that you will fall in 1 minute 48 Seconds later it touched the ground."

"You don't need to tell me this, just tell me the solution!" Tony yelled brokenly, aiming the remaining three jets at the ground, trying to slow down the descent.

"When I was in the Iron Armor, I had calculated this unexpected factor, and you also installed a shock absorption system in the Iron Armor according to my suggestion," Jarvis said, "Perhaps you should consider using a parachute next time. Built into the Iron Suit as backup insurance."

"Thank you so much for your proposal! Jarvis!" Tony broke down even more, and he planned to go back and upgrade Jarvis's system—if he survived to go back.

……

Zooey looked at the time on the phone and felt a little uneasy.

The potion was almost ready, she needed to continue to stir it patiently.

You need to stay absolutely focused this weekend, or you will cause a big mess-like accidentally brewing cough syrup into explosives.

Zooey's premonition has always been accurate, she felt that something bad might happen, but this feeling was so sudden that she was really at a loss.

Zoe was doing the last step. She stirred the potion in the pot clockwise three times, then counterclockwise three times, and so on.

At this moment, there was a deafening loud noise from the roof, and the used potion was almost spilled. Zoe's expression changed drastically. When she looked up, she saw a golden-red steel battle armor broke through the roof and smashed towards her.

Zoe dodged back subconsciously, and the steel battle armor just hit the potion that had not been successfully brewed, and the ugly yellow-brown liquid splashed all over the place, and the hard alloy was corroded out after it was stained on the steel battle armor. big hole.

This iron guy seems to have a person inside, and the moaning sound is probably a man.The man in the golden-red battle armor staggered and stood up while supporting the half-collapsed table. The mask on his face fell off with a click, revealing the face of the bearded playboy.

"I'm sorry, this thing is still in the experimental stage, it's just an accident..." Playboy suddenly cracked his shell, he lowered his head, saw the corroded yellow-brown liquid continuously flowing on the armor, his pupils shrank.

Even the most acidic substance in the world cannot corrode such a hard special alloy so easily... So what is leaking from his body now?

The room was full of dust. Zooey coughed and fumbled for the wand on the ground, pointing at the playboy unceremoniously and said: "Forget everything!"

The author has something to say: Nini: I can go to heaven in 15 minutes!

Zoe: In 15 more minutes I'll be making little money!

15 minutes later--

Nini: I fell from the sky :)

Zoe: My pennies fly away :)

So it's all Tin Can's fault!
