Chapter 95: Iron Man's Dark History That He Wants to Erase [Sixth Update, Please Subscribe]
Lin Feng didn't know that this short entry in his diary had caused great mental exhaustion to everyone who read it.
For him, his carefree days may not last long!
[The most famous scene is probably the one where Iron Man carries a nuclear bomb. It is also Tony Stark's first battle as a mortal man against a god. It is truly breathtaking.
However, can Tony Stark still have this kind of awareness this time?
Without having been to Afghanistan, without truly experiencing life and death, without hovering between life and death, without experiencing the crazy indulgence of near-death from palladium poisoning, without the profound memory of being taught a lesson by his father twenty years after his death, could he still be the Tony Stark in memory?
It's hard to say, but I have to say that Howard Stark is indeed a remarkable person who gave birth to a genius like Tony Stark. He was just limited by the times. Otherwise, his current achievements would not necessarily be worse than Tony Stark's!
"To stand shoulder to shoulder with a god with a mortal body?"
Everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. turned to look at Tony Stark with doubt in their hearts. Could this man really do what Lin Feng said and finally achieve the goal of being on par with gods with a mortal body?
Isn't this too incredible?
Tony Stark couldn't help scratching his head. Could the person Lin Feng was talking about really be him?
Even with his calm personality, he still felt a little strange when he saw these descriptions. Could this be describing himself?
Not to mention others, even he himself felt it was weird.
"Carrying a nuclear bomb? What does that mean? Can I carry a nuclear bomb?" Tony Stark racked his brains but couldn't figure it out. What kind of famous scene was this? He couldn't understand it at all.
But then he thought, there is nothing wrong with this, what could be wrong with this, he, Tony Stark, is a person with such awareness.
"Although, it doesn't seem bad to be on par with gods with a mortal body!" Tony Stark muttered to himself.
Black Widow Natasha looked at Tony Stark meaningfully. The first part only said that Tony Stark was on par with gods with his mortal body, but the second part talked about the series of hardships Tony Stark had gone through, such as going to Afghanistan to experience life and death, suffering from palladium poisoning, indulging himself on the verge of death, and being taught a lesson by his father twenty years after his death. It seems that the original Tony Stark should have experienced a lot of things.
Tony Stark also noticed these things, but he would never admit that he did not have that kind of awareness. Well, maybe it might not be as profound as his own understanding in the original timeline, but it was definitely not that unbearable.
For smart people, knowledge is like turning stone into gold, and Tony Stark is definitely such a smart person.
He was also a little unconvinced, saying that his father was a great genius and gave birth to a genius like him, which was true. He also thought that he was limited by the times, but he said that he had been dead for twenty years and could still teach him?
He doesn't believe it!
[Tony, driven mad by near-death experiences, is redeemed by his father from 20 years ago. No matter how many times you watch this, you'll still feel a certain touch of emotion, right?]
A video appeared in the diary, and everyone clicked on it.
To everyone's surprise, the film didn't start with Howard Stark, but Tony Stark, wearing a golden and red Mark armor, DJing and having a party. He looked wanton and crazy, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, and stumbling around.
Even Pepper Potts was speechless when she saw this scene. The crazy party continued until Tony Stark's friend War Machine Rhodes came.
His reckless behavior, even using energy cannons to hit watermelons and wine bottles, completely angered his good friend Rhodes.
"Tony, are the parties you usually hold at home always this crazy? You have such a strong taste."
Hawkeye Patton couldn't help but complain. Although he knew the tricks played by these rich kids and playboys, such a crazy and insane party still made him frown slightly.
"No, actually, most of the time, it's still normal. At least I won't wear armor at this party like a clown seeking attention!" Tony Stark couldn't help but complain.
Although he was complaining about himself in the video, he was very angry. He felt that the self in this video, oh no, maybe the self in another timeline, was ruining his reputation.
Yes, he did play around a bit, was a bit too relaxed, and had too many women, but he would not joke about his iron armor.
That was his hard work, his preparation to fight evil and resist aggression.
And the self in the video actually used the armor to hold a party to please the blonde girls with big breasts at the party, which was also a humiliation for him.
Captain America Rogers frowned slightly. In his era, although the morals of the upper class were not particularly good, the morals of the entire society were still much better than today, seventy years later.
Incestuous activities only happened in private, but doing it in public undoubtedly challenged the values of people of that era.
For a moment, everyone was angry and speechless.
Especially Tony Stark, he felt that this was simply his own dark history!
His reckless behavior finally angered Rhodes. He went down to the basement and came out wearing a silver-white battle armor. He yelled at everyone, "I'll only say this once: Get out!"
Seeing his friend coming out in a suit of armor, Tony Stark was not surprised, nor was he angry, nor did he think that his friend had stolen his armor. His expression was extremely calm, as if he had expected this day to happen.
He even had the DJ play a kick-ass song to liven up the atmosphere.
Rhodes roared that Tony Stark was not worthy of wearing this armor and asked him to take it off.
The two sides started fighting with each other, like two children, hitting each other with the fitness equipment in the gym, and even fought in the center of the crowd, scaring everyone to retreat.
A direct fight would result in both sides suffering losses.
When Tony Stark woke up, Rhodes had already left in his armor. Tony Stark could have asked Jarvis to stop it, but he didn't. He just watched him leave.
When everyone saw this, they looked at Tony Stark in shock, because they knew very well how much Tony Stark valued the armor technology. During this period of time, he had withstood all kinds of pressure from the military, the government, and foreign consortiums, and refused to let the armor technology leak out.
Even Tony Stark said a very famous saying that the weapons humans have already made humans have a high enough killing efficiency, and they don't need any more.
Rhodes' background is undoubtedly a military background.
Tony Stark handed over the armor without any hindrance, which was not in line with his habit.
"So, is this the palladium poisoning that Lin Feng mentioned, the madness before death?"
Hill asked carefully.
Everyone suddenly remembered that the diary seemed to mention this point, which was Tony Stark's madness before he died of palladium poisoning.
They didn't see the palladium poisoning, but they saw the madness before death.
Tony Stark, a respectable rich young man who usually acts high and mighty, is like a crazy clown at this time. He even changes his will and lets his good brother take his armor away.
Is this what Lin Feng said, that after experiencing life and death, one's personality will undergo a drastic change?
It has indeed changed dramatically.
Tony Stark also noticed this and realized why he behaved like a psycho in the video, especially when he handed the armor to Rhodes. It was probably because he didn't want to embarrass his good brother.
After all, Rhodes had come to him more than once or twice about this matter during this period.
He was also under a lot of pressure from the military.
He knew all this very well.
But now he has also begun to seriously consider whether he should ask his good brother to bring back a battle armor so that he can have a good report.
Anyway, according to his estimation, the military would not be able to break his technology, and the final right of use would most likely be in the hands of his good brothers.
"Jarvis, help me calculate this palladium poisoning. If poisoned, how long can a person live?"
Tony Stark asked.
After a moment, Jarvis gave the answer, saying, "At most half a year, but if the palladium element can be isolated, there is a way to treat it!"
Tony Stark immediately understood where the problem lay. It was not a problem with the palladium element. The palladium element could actually be isolated. For example, the energy used in his current armor was generated by the nuclear fusion reaction of the palladium element, but it had no effect on him.
But the person in the video seemed different. He remembered that in the last video, after Obadiah took away his Ark reactor, his face immediately turned pale, as if he was about to die.
In other words, I had to rely on the Ark Reactor to survive at that time, so I was actually facing a dilemma at that time. Either use the Ark Reactor and then slowly die of palladium poisoning.
Or don't use the Ark Reactor and die instantly.
It's that simple.
Later, he asked Jarvis to conduct a deduction and analysis. Based on his symptoms and his experience in Afghanistan, he speculated what might be wrong with him that forced him to use the Ark Reactor, otherwise he would die.
The deduced results indicate that there are probably shrapnel in his body, and tiny shrapnel is flowing in his blood vessels. He has to use the magnetic force generated by the Ark reactor to absorb these fragments. Otherwise, these shrapnel will flow away with the blood, and he will die soon.
