Little bug, I think you should look for your own reasons. You shouldn't be jumping around like that. If it weren't for you, I would have dealt with this lizard man long ago. I should be at home drinking red wine and chatting with a beautiful woman, instead of being here fighting with you and an ugly lizard man." As the saying goes, it's better to lose the battle than the person. Although Tony knew very well that Spider-Man was right, he was too proud to admit it.
"Who are you calling the ugly lizard man?! You tin man!" Joseph's inner anger erupted again, and he could no longer suppress his anger towards Tony Stark. As the saying goes, don't hit someone in the face, as it will hurt their self-esteem.
He was already very sensitive about the fact that he was no longer human, and Tony Stark repeatedly mentioned this to him, and also mocked his appearance.
Didn't your mother teach you manners?
What's wrong with being ugly? Do you think I'll eat your rice if I'm ugly?
The angry Lizard Man took advantage of the moment when Spider-Man and Tony were distracted by each other, and directly whipped Spider-Man to the wall on the other side with his tail. Then he used his hands and tail to roll up several cars and smashed them towards the flying Iron Man. He even jumped into the air and pounced on Iron Man who was dodging the heavy objects thrown by him.
After all, it was just a mecha designed for ordinary people and weapons of average power. It was naturally not perfect against this kind of genetic mutant. The iron armor, which couldn't dodge in time, was pulled down from the air by Joseph and pressed down tightly.
"Go to hell! Tin Man!" The Lizard Man raised his claws that were powerful enough to tear steel plates and said fiercely with a fierce look in his eyes.
Just as the lizard man's claws were about to fall, another figure shot out and knocked the lizard man away.
"It's you!" Tony looked closely and exclaimed in surprise.
How could he not recognize this person? He had met this guy when he escaped from the Middle East.
"When I saw you two beating this guy, I thought everything was safe, but I didn't expect you to be beaten like this." Natasha said helplessly.
She was originally watching the show from the side, and when Spider-Man was about to collapse, she was ready to take action, but then Tony showed up again.
Natasha even began to watch the show with a legitimate reason.
Unexpectedly, these two guys were caught in an argument by the lizard man and were knocked to the ground. If she didn't take action, the playboy Tony would probably die under the claws of the lizard man.
Tony's expression under the mask was a little embarrassed. He hadn't expected this, had he? He hadn't expected this lizard man to jump so high and pull him down in an instant.
But he didn't lose the battle, how could he show weakness in front of a beautiful woman?
As for why he thought she was a beauty, as a veteran in the world of flowers, he could tell from some aspects that the mysterious woman in front of him had such a hot body and a nice voice. If her face was not good-looking, his name would be written upside down.
"I just didn't think of it just now. It would be easy for me to defeat it. I just don't know what this lady's name is?" Tony got up from the ground and asked politely.
"You can call me Venom, but now is not the time to talk about this. Let's deal with this guy first." Natasha frowned slightly, feeling speechless in her heart. This guy's nature is really hard to change. He is still thinking about picking up girls at this time.
"Roar!" The Lizard Man shook his head. Seeing Tony Stark flirting with a girl, his mind exploded. Damn it, he really thinks I'm made of mud? Ignoring me? He roared and charged at the two men.
The black fluid on Natasha's left arm quickly condensed into a shield, and Natasha herself rushed forward.
"Roar!" The lizardman's sharp claws grabbed towards Natasha. Natasha raised her right arm to block the lizardman's claws directly, and punched the lizardman's abdomen with her right fist. After several strengthenings, Natasha's power burst out at this moment was extremely astonishing.
Even the Lizardman himself did not expect that Natasha's fist could have such power.
The lizardman also took a few steps back because of Natasha's fist. Natasha's combat experience was simply not comparable to these people. She immediately stepped forward again, jumped high, and hit the lizardman's head directly with the shield on her left arm.
The lizard man was stunned. Natasha put her arms around the lizard man's neck, and with the help of the force of falling and her arm strength, she threw the lizard man out with an over-the-shoulder throw, and he hit the ground hard.
Natasha knew very well the principle of taking advantage of someone's weakness to kill him. She raised her hand and shot out a spider silk, which wrapped around the lizard man's tail. She swung her arms vigorously, turning the ferocious lizard man into a windmill.
After swinging it twice, Natasha felt that the kinetic energy was almost enough, so she let go. The lizardman was smashed directly into the house, raising a lot of dust.
Tony Stark, standing behind Natasha, was completely stunned. Looking at Natasha's back, he felt a surge of fear in his heart and instantly gave up the idea of flirting with her. If he really succeeded, he would definitely get his legs broken if he went to find another woman!
I can't afford to offend you, I can't afford to offend you, I'll just run away.
Chapter 42: Deal with the Ten Rings
As a former soldier, Joseph was the king among the recruits at that time. No one could beat him in fighting, except the real veterans.
But now, he didn't even have the strength to fight back against this woman. He was not a fool. If he continued to fight, his life would be in danger, and there were two other people who were eyeing him covetously.
Although he is less rational than beastly, he is not a fool. After venting his anger, his anger has decreased a lot, so he naturally won't continue to fight foolishly.
Looking at the smoke and dust rising around him, he took the opportunity to run away.
When the smoke and dust cleared, the lizardman had disappeared.
Natasha frowned slightly. This guy actually ran away? He's not stupid.
Since this guy had slipped away, there was no point in staying here. Without waiting for Spider-Man and Tony Stark to react, Natasha disappeared from people's sight in a few jumps.
The little spider scratched his head, sprayed spider silk from his wrist, and left the scene. Although he was quite confused as to why Natasha could also spray spider silk, was she also bitten by a spider?
Tony watched the two men slip away, shrugged, turned on the thrusters and left the scene. He now understood the flaws of his armor. It was okay against ordinary people, but it was far from enough against these mutants and super-powered people. He needed to continue to improve it.
…
Obadiah Stane, a veteran of Stark Industries.
He once fought together with Howard Stark to create the most prestigious weapons manufacturing company in the world.
Of course, Stark Group does not rely solely on weapons to make money, it also produces a variety of other civilian products.
But there is no doubt that what else in the world can make more money than arms?
People always spend a lot of US dollars to buy various weapons for some boring little things, and then raise the knife to kill their own kind.
Especially after Howard Stark's death, Obaday once controlled this super group. Those were truly the most wonderful days in his life.
Even when he thinks back today, Obaday still feels nostalgic for those days.
However, among the beautiful memories, there are always some unpleasant things, such as the green boy, the self-righteous and playboy Tony Stark.
Obaday wished this guy would keep playing like crazy and squandering money until he spent all his Stark Industries shares.
Only in this way can he truly take charge of the weapons empire. But Tony always disappoints people, and he actually came back!
This guy who had never cared about his father's business actually came back, and under his leadership, the Stark Group was thriving.
In just over ten years, Stark Industries' stock price has increased fivefold, and their arms are sold all over the world.
This should be good news for them, at least for other shareholders, because they can get huge dividends every year.
But it was not a good thing for Obaday. His importance in the group was getting lower and lower, although he still held the position of CEO firmly with his personal relationship with Tony.
But some people on the board have already said that he is old and outdated, and he should give up his power and retire like the other old men on the board.
Buy a luxury cruise ship, take some beautiful and sexy blonde girls to the Mediterranean to enjoy life, and just wait for the dividends to be distributed every year.
For some this kind of life is heaven, but for Obaday this kind of life is hell.
He couldn't imagine how difficult it would be to lose power. It would accelerate his aging and make him lose his vitality, and eventually turn him into a penniless old man, except for being very rich, of course.
So he planned a murder, and the target of the murder was Tony Stark.
