Facts have proved that the person who knows him best is himself. Although Tony Stark in the video acted as if he did not recognize Maya Hansen, he actually recognized her.
"Yes, it's Maya Hansen." After Pepper Potts's voice drifted down from upstairs, Tony Stark walked out of the suit, "A botanist friend. I've known each other before, but I don't know her well."
.”
After saying this, Tony Stark pulled Maya Hansen aside and whispered to her, "Don't tell me that there is a 12-year-old child I have never met waiting for me in the car."
"He is 13 years old." Maya Hansen said, "Don't be ridiculous, I just need your help."
"What help? Why now?" Tony Stark asked.
"Because I read the newspaper, and frankly, I don't think you're going to make it through the week," Maya Hansen said.
When the video reaches this point, it's as if the pause button has been pressed and it's frozen there.
Then lines of text started to appear.
[Can Tony Stark survive a week? 】
【A can.】
【B cannot.】
[If you answer this question correctly, you will be rewarded with five years of life. If you answer incorrectly, you will be deducted by one year from your life.]
"This is a short question?" Bruce Banner keenly noticed the difference in wording, "Is this third question more than one question?"
"That's what it looks like," Steve Rogers said.
"The lifespan is also rewarded. The captain is rewarded for ten years, but Stark's question is rewarded for five years." T'Challa guessed, "Is there two small questions in this third question?"
"Who knows, I can only say that it is possible." Tony Stark said, "Maybe there are three questions and four questions. The answer space does not say that the reward lifespan of the two questions must be the same."
"This question feels very cost-effective," said James Rhodes. "If you answer two or three questions correctly, all the lifespan deducted for wrong answers in the past will be returned, and there will be a lot left, which can be used for future questions.
buckle."
"Furthermore, this question feels quite simple." Bruce Banner said, "Just because Stark is Iron Man, no matter who the opponent is, he won't be able to last even a week, right?"
"Dr. Banner, you are looking down on me when you say that." Tony Stark said, "What do you mean I won't be able to survive for a week? By saying this, are you tacitly admitting that I will lose? In my opinion, I will lose."
They won’t lose at all. Questions like ‘how long can we last?’ should be asked to them.”
"From the above plot, we can guess that Stark's opponent this time should be the 'Mandarin'." Steve Rogers said, "Does anyone know about this person?"
"Speaking of which, this man and I have been friends for a long time." An unfathomable cold light flashed in Tony Stark's eyes.
"Yes, although I have never met him, but speaking of it, Tony can become Iron Man thanks to Mandarin." James Rhodes also said.
"Have you ever dealt with him?" Bruce Banner asked.
"Remember how I became Iron Man?" Tony Stark said.
"You were kidnapped by a group of terrorists and taken to the desert. In order to escape, you secretly built a battle armor..." At this point, Bruce Banner reacted. "The guys who kidnapped Stark are from Mandarin."
people?"
"That's a notorious terrorist organization called the Ten Commandments Gang, and Mandarin is the leader of the Ten Commandments Gang." Tony Stark sneered, "I haven't even settled the accounts with them yet, and they actually got on my head.
Up?"
"Calm down Tony, maybe the plot in the video is that you go to settle accounts with them first, and they fight back," James Rhodes said.
"This is not important. I just want to know that a terrorist organization actually asked that woman to tell Stark that he might not survive a week." Steve Rogers pondered, "What kind of trump card does this organization have?
That woman thinks even Iron Man can take care of her?"
"I don't know what means they will have in the future, but my answer will not change. Nothing can last more than a week. I will definitely win in the end." Tony Stark said, "I choose A, if I can
!”
[If the answer is correct, the reward will be distributed.]
After the answer results were announced, the paused scene in the space resumed.
"I'm fine." In the video, Tony Stark responded to Maya Hansen saying that he would not survive a week.
"Sorry, because Happy is in the hospital." Pepper Potts came down the stairs, "I didn't expect any guests."
"Not a guest," Tony Stark said.
"That's the lover." Pepper Potts said the truth.
"No." Tony Stark denied.
"No." Maya Hansen also denied, "At most it's a clear night."
"Yes." Tony Stark highly praised Maya Hansen's precise and concise description.
"That's one of those feats, isn't it?" Pepper Potts said sarcastically.
"It's really great, yes." Tony Stark admitted directly.
"It's a good thing you didn't jump into the fire," Pepper Potts said to Maya Hansen.
"What?" Tony Stark asked.
"Believe me." Pepper Potts said this to Maya Hansen and then said to Tony Stark, "It's time for us to go out."
"That's it," Tony Stark said, "No."
"Okay." Pepper Potts said.
"I said no." Tony Stark said again.
"Leave right away, there is nothing to discuss." Pepper Potts' attitude was also very firm.
From the subtle atmosphere between the two, combined with Pepper Potts' previous behavior of throwing the salute down the stairs, it can be seen that the two people must have had some minor conflicts and were quarreling.
The next plot was indeed like this, Tony Stark and Pepper Potts quarreled again in front of Maya Hansen.
Of course, the gift from Tony Stark is also quite ridiculous.
While the two were arguing, Maya Hansen was looking around, but she saw a horrifying scene on the surveillance screen. She couldn't help but point to the screen and said, "Stop arguing, don't we need to care about that?"
"
Tony Stark turned his head and saw on the big screen, a cannonball with a long tail, shooting towards here.
boom!
The next moment, the cannonball hit the mansion, and the shock wave of the explosion directly sent Tony Stark and Pepper Potts flying.
Tony Stark reacted quickly. While he was still in the air, he pointed his hand at Pepper Potts and made a strange gesture.
Just when everyone still didn't know why Tony Stark made that kind of gesture at that moment, they saw pieces of armor parts flying through the dust in the sky and landing on Pepper Potts.
The clicks deformed and expanded on his body, and in the blink of an eye, a set of battle armor had been completed on Pepper Potts.
The next moment, with a bang, Pepper Potts fell to the ground.
But she was already in the armor.
"Tony, in this life and death situation, you don't wear a battle armor for yourself, but for Pepper." James Rhodes couldn't help but said, "It can be seen that you are truly in love with Pepper."
"Isn't this nonsense?" Tony Stark said, "Who wouldn't love such a perfect girl?"
"This really surprised me." Thor also said, "Stark, a man with such a bad mouth, would think of protecting others at the moment of his life and death."
"Thor, it's a little too sad for you to say that." James Rhodes said, "Tony withstood a nuclear bomb during the Battle of New York. You guys answered the questions together, don't you know this? Yes."
Isn’t it normal to choose to protect one’s own woman in the face of a death crisis in order to save New York’s anti-nuclear bombs?”
"Sorry. Although I wasn't there when the question was answered, we will share information in the subsequent questions, so I know about it." Thor shrugged, "It's just that guy's mouth is too bad. Looking at what's going on in front of me,
He and I have forgotten about his ability to resist nuclear bombs in the future."
As soon as Thor said this, everyone in the answering room nodded frequently. Yes, as a superhero, Tony Stark is qualified, but his mouth is really stinky, so stinky that people doubt it.
Not a hero.
The video continued to play, and Tony Stark, who had just used the remote control suit to dress Pepper Potts, also fell to the ground.
Without the protection of the armor, he looked rather embarrassed.
Tony Stark turned around and looked around, only to see Maya Hansen lying motionless in a corner, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.
Click, click, click!
Cracks suddenly appeared on the ceiling, and then the whole thing collapsed. Tony Stark sat up from the ground, but it was obviously too late to hide.
At this moment, a steel phantom ran over, stood in front of Tony Stark, and shouldered the falling ceilings.
"I protected you." The armor's face bounced away, and Pepper Potts looked at Tony Stark and said.
"I protected you first." Tony Stark stood up from the ground, "It seems we have to get out of here first."
Boom boom boom!
On the sea, three helicopters rumbled over. One of the guys wearing sunglasses was chewing gum, as if he was here to play house.
"Aha, he showed his face!" Tony Stark slapped his face in the answer space, "I hope this guy won't ask me why when he is caught, so I will have to bother to explain that you want to kill me in the future, but you didn't enter
He won't believe it at all because he has no answer space, so what I said is in vain."
Whoosh whoosh!
In the video, the helicopter once again fired not one shell, but several shells at Tony Stark's mansion.
It seems that the shooter is determined to kill Tony Stark.
Originally, Tony Stark and Pepper Potts were together, but the shock wave of the explosion blew Tony Stark away again and separated him from Pepper Potts.
"Come on, I'll follow you!" Tony Stark shouted at Pepper Potts, who turned around and looked at him.
Then he ran out from behind the sofa and was about to join Pepper Potts.
But the ground beneath their feet cracked, and the crack stretched between Tony Stark and Pepper Potts, forming a huge crack.
Pepper Potts turned around and looked at Tony Stark, who hurriedly said, "Go save her, I'll find a way around it myself."
Pepper Potts looked at Tony Stark and still wanted to save Tony Stark first.
"Don't stop! Take her out with you!" Tony Stark yelled, "Quick!"
Pepper Potts turned around and left to save Maya Hansen. She helped Maya Hansen up and fired a palm cannon behind her. The recoil pushed her and Maya Hansen out together.
.
Boom boom boom!
At this moment, several more shells hit the villa, and the villa began to collapse extensively.
"Oh, my God." Pepper Potts' face changed drastically outside the villa, and she shouted inside, "Tony!"
After being bombarded by several shells in succession, the villa at this time could no longer maintain its original structure. The ground was sloping. Tony Stark's whole body slid towards the side of the ruins. He finally held a steel pipe.
Only then did he stabilize his body shape.
"Sir, Miss Pepper has left safely." Jarvis's voice rang when Tony Stark leaned over and panted.
When Tony Stark heard this, he made another strange gesture. He first put his hands together and pointed outward, and then patted his chest.
Outside the villa, Pepper Potts' armor was peeled off piece by piece and flew towards Tony Stark inside the villa.
Da da da da da!
The helicopter also used large-caliber machine guns, firing fierce fire continuously.
Tony Stark didn't dare to stand up at all and crawled slowly inside the villa.
An unforgettable scene appeared. Every time he took a step, a piece of armor flew over and landed on him and began to deform. He completed his outfit amidst the baptism of bullets.
When he stood up, a majestic Iron Man had emerged.
"Stark, the way you dress in this armor is even more advanced than the way you dressed in the Battle of New York." Steve Rogers couldn't help but say.
"And it's very cool." James Rhodes said, "If I were a girl, I would be fascinated by it."
"Isn't this just plagiarizing me?" Thor opened his mouth and laughed, "In another parallel time and space, when I was hit by the Destroyer and was about to die, my hammer flew into my hand, and so did my armor.
, piece by piece flew to me."
"Plagiarism, borrowing from others." Tony Stark corrected him, "Can something done by a scholar be called plagiarism?"
"Don't you mean the same thing?" Thor said.
"The me in the parallel time and space in the video definitely didn't borrow from you. They didn't have the space to answer the questions, and they didn't even see the scene before your death." Tony Stark said, "As for me, I did watch you at that time.
I just came up with this way of dressing for that scene, but I haven't finished it yet."
"This greatly increases the flexibility of clothing. It is not restricted by the environment or distance, and can handle almost all kinds of crisis situations." Bruce Banner spoke highly of this kind of clothing, "Stark, you are really talented.
.”
Boom boom boom!
In the video, artillery shells are still bombarding the villa.
However, from this moment on, the situation is different.
Because now Tony Stark is wearing a suit.
"Jarvis, where's the flight power?" Tony Stark shouted.
"I'm working hard, this is just an engineering prototype." Jarvis said.
Everyone who had just breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this was worried again. They thought they would be able to fight back immediately after putting on the armor, but they didn't expect that it was just an engineering prototype.
Although everyone is not sure what functions the engineering prototype has been deprived of compared to the finished armor, the fact that it cannot fly makes the situation not optimistic.
After all, the enemy comes in a helicopter. If you can't fly, it will be quite passive to land and air.
But the situation was even worse. When Tony Stark raised his arm to fight back, he got a "system failure, weapon offline" prompt.
But Tony Stark is definitely not a soft persimmon. Even if the suit cannot fly and the weapon system cannot be used, he is not helpless.
Amidst the fierce enemy fire, Tony Stark stretched out his palms and struck a piece of ruins with his palm cannon. The ruins flew into the sky and hit a helicopter, which fell directly into the sea.
"The first one." Tony Stark stood up and looked up at the helicopter in the sky from the crack above the villa.
"Sir, it cannot be used for combat yet." Jarvis reminded.
Da da da da!
Lines of fire tore through the sky, and large-caliber machine guns began another round of fierce fire.
Tony Stark wore a suit and fled in panic in the villa that was already riddled with holes.
When he ran to a corner, Tony Stark forced his hands to take apart one arm of the armor and took out a cylindrical object from inside. It should be some kind of cannonball that was originally used to fire. Tony Stark
Tucker threw it directly towards the helicopter, then raised his hand and fired a palm cannon.
boom!
Amid the sky full of flames, the helicopter was also scrapped.
"The second one." Tony Stark had a smile on his face, but he couldn't stop laughing because the helicopter actually crashed down on top of his head!
Tony Stark ran away, the helicopter fell behind him, exploded, and the shock wave overturned it, falling to a large hole in the ground, and the whole person fell into the ruins.
Because Tony Stark is too trapped, this huge villa is built on the seaside, so once he falls into the ruins, if he cannot climb up, he will be buried under the sea.
Boom boom boom!
Another digital media shell came over, and another shell ignited other armors in the villa, causing those armors to explode.
The villa, which was already riddled with holes and was in danger, was completely blown up.
And Tony Stark, wearing armor, also fell into the sea along with the villa.
At this point, the screen paused again and text began to appear.
[Is Iron Man Tony Stark dead? 】
【A is dead.】
【B is not dead.】
[If you answer this question correctly, you will be rewarded with five years of life. If you answer incorrectly, you will be deducted by one year from your life.]
"I have to say that the brutality of this battle far exceeded my imagination." Sam Wilson said, "I thought it would be easy for Tony Stark to deal with a terrorist organization, but I didn't expect that he even lost his family.
It was bulldozed.”
"It's not that Iron Man is not good, it's that he didn't put on a real suit and didn't perform to the level that Iron Man should have." James Rhodes said, "If Tony puts on a suit that can fight, that's it.
Several helicopters were destroyed easily."
"Stark, can your suit operate underwater?" Steve Rogers asked.
"Because I never thought about going underwater one day, I didn't add this function. The current armor is not suitable." Tony Stark said, "But in the video, the parallel time and space me, the armor at that time
But it's much more advanced than I am now, so I really don't know if the armor can be used in the water."
"Based on what you know about yourself, do you think you will add this feature in the future?" Steve Rogers asked again.
"Yes." Tony Stark thought for a while and said.
"Then let's assume that the armor can operate underwater." Steve Rogers said solemnly, "In this case, the possibility of Stark's death is very low."
"Is it possible that even though the armor has this function, the one in the video cannot operate underwater?" T'Challa said, "That one is an engineering prototype, and its function is disabled. Will it be the same as being unable to fly?
,It can’t go into the water?”
"This may not be big." Tony Stark said, "The reason why the engineering prototype cannot fly is because flying requires power, but launching into water does not. If the battle armor is designed with this function, the prototype will definitely have it."
"So all things considered, the possibility of Stark's death is not high." Steve Rogers said.
"I think we should pay more attention to why Mandarin went directly to Stark's house." Bruce Banner said, "They directly dispatched such a large amount of firepower, without even saying hello, and directly launched a brazen attack.
, they are very sure that that villa is Stark’s home.”
"I'm not an anonymous guy. Who doesn't know me in the entire United States?" Tony Stark didn't care about this. "After finding out my specific address, it's not surprising that a terrorist organization can do this."
"Yes, this is not strange, but there is one thing that is strange." Bruce Banner said, "Why would that Maya Hansen come to your house and tell you that you can't survive a week?"
"She came to me for help." Tony Stark said, "She asked me to help with something."
"But she also said that you wouldn't last a week." Bruce Banner said, "It can be seen from this that she knew that Mandarin was going to attack you, and you asked her to stand there as soon as they met, and you still
No matter whether you are Mandarin or not, it shows that you also know that Mandarin is going to attack you."
"Maya Hansen also said that she read the newspaper and thought you wouldn't survive a week." Steve Rogers said, "Has the news that Mandarin is going to attack you already published in the newspaper?"
"Before Mandarin killed Stark, did he first report the fact that he wanted to kill Stark?" Thor couldn't understand this at all. "Is there something wrong with this Mandarin's brain?"
"Before you kill someone, write a letter telling the person I'm going to kill you, or send a letter to the police saying I'm going to kill someone on that day." Sam Wilson said, "I've only seen this kind of perverted and stupid thing in movies.
