While flying through the sky, Tony had already contactedPepper through JARVIS, telling them to evacuate quickly. Unfortunately, it was too late—Iron Monger, piloted by Obadiah, suddenly appeared and directly eliminatedseveral of Coulson's colleagues.
Coulson's bullets were utterly useless against Iron Monger. He could only flee with Pepper, hopingS.H.I.E.L.D. would be more effective than the police—don't wait until everything's over to show up!
Just as Iron Monger was about to fire at Pepper, Tonyfinally arrived. He immediately positioned himself in front of Pepper and Coulson, crossed his arms, and activated the solidified charm on his arm's exterior. A translucent protective shieldappeared, blockingObadiah's artillery fire. The only damageTonysustained was being pushedback a few steps.
"Aha! Thank you, Weasley!" Tonyexclaimed, looking at his armor that hadn't evenlost its paint.
"Tony! Are you alright?" Pepperasked worriedly.
"I'm fine. Go with this agent to somewhere safe. I'll find you after I finish this." Tony said steadily.
Pepperlooked at Tony with eyesfull of emotion and obediently followedCoulson to evacuate.
"Tony!" Obadiahwasn't about to watchTony's tender moment. He controlledIron Monger—several timeslarger than Tony—charging straight at him, artillery firingcontinuously. To ensurePepper could evacuate safely, Tony could only desperatelymaintain his protective charm, being beatenbackstep by step.
"Whoa, look—your future daughter-in-law is secured!" Gemini sat on a nearby buildingrooftopholding Maria, a pair of compact panoramic binoculars in her hands. Mariaalso had a pair. Though her portrait was of a tea room, she could visitother portraits! These binoculars were borrowed from a ladynext door who watchedhorse races—perfectly adequate!
"I think so too. I've only met that girl a few times, but she seems like a good one. Tonyjustnever saysanything—it's killing me with worry!" Mariacouldn't helpcomplaining.
Geminifell silent. This auntseemed to have her priorities a bit skewed? The onegetting beatenover there was her son, wasn't it?
"Oh oh oh, the girl's safe! Who's that bald man?" Maria said, clinging to the portrait's edge while watching.
"Let me see." Geminilooked in Maria's direction. "Huh? Isn't that my client from two visitsago?!"
"Tsk, I knew it. They definitely went to investigate. Howard was the sameback then—whatever he developed, people would immediately knowabout it. These people." Mariawatched the show, reminiscing about the past with a sigh.
Geministroked her chin. "Thenwhyhasn'tMACUSAcome looking for me? You know, this counts as exposing magic in front of government personnel, right?"
"What exposure is this? Do you thinkthese agents will make it public? Don't be silly—they're tighter-lipped than the wizarding world." Mariascoffedwithout mercy. "Besides, you should know that AmericanNo-Majs, even if you put the truthright in their faces, will stillfirmly believe their own ideas. As for whether their ideas are right? Well, they think they are."
Gemini was speechless, remembering a client who kept shovingbusiness cards into her shop, convinced the shop's potions were developed through research. He wanted to distribute them worldwide. Annoyedbeyond measure, Gemini had directly modified his memory to end it.
"Look, look! He's using his ultimate move!" Mariasuddenly exclaimed.
Geminiput the binoculars to her eyes while feelingsomething was off. This was his real mother, right? How was she more invested in watching the excitement than herself?
In the distance, Tonysaw that Pepper had retreated to safety and finally dodgedIron Monger's attack, no longerserving as a target.
ThoughMagic Mark 1 was equipped with various solidified magic, it carriedno conventional ammunitionwhatsoever. Those solidified spells could only be sustained by Tony's magical power for now. Having maintained the protective charmearlier had already consumedmost of it, so Tony could only rely on his palm repulsors and agile movements to harassIron Monger.
"Don't think you're the only one who can fly!" Obadiahroared at Tonybuzzing around like a mosquito in the sky. With full power, Iron Mongeralsotook flight, lunging at Tony and gripping him tightly.
Tonysmiled. "How did you solve the icing problem?"
"What?" Obadiahfrowned.
The next second, ObadiahfeltIron Mongerfirmly stuck to Tony, followed by obvious centrifugal forceproving they were rapidly ascending.
In just a few minutes, they were already at an altitude of over ten thousand feet. Iron Mongerbegan accumulating a thick layer of ice.
Meanwhile, Tony's Magic Mark 1, accompanied by flowing red light, showednot even a trace of water vapor, let aloneice.
Going higher, the airgradually thinned. Tonysaw that Iron Monger's ice layer was thick enough and decisively released it, watching it fall.
Accompanied by Obadiah's screams, Iron Monger's descentaccelerated. Tonyleisurely followedbehind, thinking smugly: trying to learn from him? A hundred yearstoo early!
The falling speedincreased. Friction between Iron Monger and the airgenerated heat, gradually melting the outer ice shell. Near ground level, Iron Mongerrecovered mobility and managed to move laterally, avoiding a direct crash.
Looking at the research facilitydestroyed by Iron Monger's impact, Tonyhovered in mid-air, locked ontoIron Monger's position. He could see that Obadiahwouldn't die so easily from this fall.
Sure enough, Iron Mongersoon burst from the rubble, directly knockingTony onto the adjacent road.
Screamserupted immediately. Tonycouldn't helpcursing under his breath—whyhadn't the crowds been evacuated?!
Tonydesperately tried to leadIron Mongeraway, but Obadiahsaw through it. "Hahaha! Tony! Still trying to save people at a time like this?! Too late! Watch! They're all dyingbecause of you!"
Iron Mongersuddenly lifted a nearby car and hurled it at Tony. Seeing the flying car with the terrified expressions of the mother and childinside, Tonycursed, swept his right handacross his left forearm—the gun-shaped wandappeared—"Wingardium Leviosa!"
The entire carsuddenly shuddered and floated quietly in mid-air. Accompanied by the mother's terrified screams, the acceleratorroared frantically as the car's wheelsspun uselessly in the air.
Tonycarefully controlled the car, setting it down on an empty section of road. The moment it touched ground, the carshot forward at tremendous speed, disappearing down the street.
"What was that?! What else have you developed! Let's seehow many more you can save!"
Obadiahshouted, continuously grabbingnearby cars and throwing them. Tony could only catch them one by one, placing them on the roadbehind him.
"So they're playing catch?" Maria's tone was puzzled. "Whydoesn'tTonyaim somethingnastydirectly at Obadiah?"
