The Truth Rope is one of Wonder Woman's iconic equipment. An artifact blessed by the power of the ancient Greek pantheon, it can force the person bound by the rope to tell the truth. When faced with questions from the holder of the artifact, whether he keeps silent or lies,
It is not an option, and even the strongest will cannot resist its power.
Although the old bat does not understand magic, he has taken a side road of using technology to implement magic methods. His armor can simulate the working methods of magic in all aspects. The mantra lasso also gives him a low profile.
The polygraph version is out.
In short, this suit is basically a low-end and degraded version of the abilities of all Zhenglian members.
But it was enough for the current situation. The man's armor was in tatters and useless. Batman restrained him, holding one end of the rope with one hand, and pulled off the man's helmet with one hand.
The face exposed below was fair and rough, and he looked like a young man. He was not afraid, and glared at the two superheroes, or perhaps more accurately, it should be focused on Iron Man.
He was very angry and seemed to have made up his mind to keep silent. But the power of the noose made him unable to resist, and a burst of electricity stimulated him to grin. His face spasmed, and after a fierce struggle, he finally opened his mouth with difficulty.
"My name...is Cali."
He said through gritted teeth and glared at Stark fiercely.
"You ruined my life, killed my parents, and took away everything from me!"
Chu Cheng was very surprised when he heard this, and his perspective changed to Stark: "Why did I kill your parents?"
It would not be surprising if this were placed in Marvel. The tricks Stark made when he was young offended many people. He himself made a fortune selling arms, and he wished that all his relatives and friends in the world would be killed by Stark-brand bullets.
Hate him to the core. After he changed his identity and became Iron Man, people liked to blame him for every building that the super criminal blew up. It would not be surprising if a new Iron Man's number one black man would pop up out of nowhere.
Is it possible that Stark's taunt value is too high and he is the number one target wherever he goes?
However, after facial recognition recognized his identity, Chu Cheng suddenly understood. This boy turned out to be the descendant of the leader of the illegal armed organization "Eagle's Nest". The Eagle's Nest was annihilated by the steel mecha army a month ago, and all its main members were killed.
Got to be clean.
To Chu Cheng, it was just a trivial matter. The whole process took less than ten minutes, and he didn't even personally supervise the battle. The Iron Legion basically took care of it on its own, so he didn't even remember that he had done it before searching for relevant information.
It turns out that there is nothing much to say about being a descendant of a terrorist. Even if some of the things Chu Cheng did while wearing a Stark vest may be controversial, after all, it is impossible for the terrorists to let it go.
When the Eagle's Nest was in its heyday, it was just a small organization that couldn't get into Chu Cheng's eyes. If it was destroyed, it would be destroyed. What made him wonder was how such a brat from such a badass organization had the ability to steal this thing.
Equipped.
The young man looked angry, obviously unwilling to cooperate: "If I want to kill you, just kill me. Anyway, you have killed all of us, and I am not the only one... uh..."
His fair face twitched again, seeming to be distorted by extreme pain. He foolishly tried to resist the power of the rope, and it was natural that he would not get any good results.
After a while, he finally opened his mouth with difficulty and succumbed to the power of the rope.
"It was...someone...gave it to me." He said with trembling lips.
"Who?" Chu Cheng continued to ask.
"...I don't know." The boy gasped, "Our organization...father and everyone else were attacked by you and all died. I am the only one left.
I couldn't stay at home, because it had become the place occupied by your...those disgusting machines. I escaped, in the boundless desert, not knowing where to go.
Then that person...that person appeared. He said he could save me and give me strength. He asked me to come here to find you...to find Tony Stark and kill all of me.
The culprit of my family. He said I can take revenge..."
At this point, he couldn't speak anymore, and his face was a little annoyed and a little angry. He looked at Batman furtively, obviously thinking that the man had clearly lied to him. Although the equipment given to him was very strong, it also made him feel inflated for a while.
He was already invincible, but he didn't expect that he would be like a mouse to a cat in front of Batman, not an opponent of the same magnitude at all.
Chu Cheng asked him more questions, but these were the only messages that came back and forth. He was frightened by the Iron Legion, and fled alone in the desert like a headless chicken. He was tired and thirsty and saw only one breath left.
That person suddenly appeared.
At that time, he was very weak and not very clear-headed. When he recovered, the man had left. When asked what he looked like and what his characteristics were, he could only vaguely explain.
He couldn't hide anything under the constraints of the mantra mode. Chu Cheng knew that he really knew nothing. So Chu Cheng didn't waste any more time on him, peeled off his armor and tied him up.
, and then called someone to deal with the mess.
Before leaving, the young man was still shouting at Iron Man's back from behind.
"You want to play the hero? Do you think you are better than us? You are just like us, there is no difference!" he shouted, "Murderer, terrorist! The only difference between you and us is that your gun is bigger!"
Iron Man ignored it and lit a fire under his feet before rising into the sky and disappearing.
He couldn't say more, but he didn't need to.
Just as he was fighting, Friday had already gone to find out everything he needed.
Iron Man flew through the bustling urban area, returned to the hospital, and stood in Professor Peng's ward again. But this time he did not take off his armor, and walked into the ward wearing the steel suit, and came to the old man's bed.
The old man was still lying there, looking exactly the same as when he left. He seemed to have not moved. He was not surprised when he saw Iron Man coming in. He just pondered for a moment and said, "So, you know."
"You know that as long as I want to investigate, nothing can be hidden from me."
Stark spoke coldly under his helmet.
"No one stole that piece of equipment at all. The research was terminated, right?" he said. "The higher authorities have re-evaluated your research and concluded that it has no value in continuing.
You lost the funds and you want to prove it again. You are the thief yourself, right, professor? The person responsible for the sudden death...was he the one who committed it?"
"You're wrong about that part, Mr. Stark. I didn't kill him...but the rest is right. They are short-sighted, and I have to make them see the value of this project."
"This is not even your own research." Stark continued, "Episode currently does not have the ability to develop exoskeleton armor of this level."
Professor Peng also admitted it outright.
"Yes." He said calmly, "Its origin is similar to yours... We believe it is alien technology."
