Gradually, Tony gets closer to the truth and feels the absurdity of things.
The root cause of the matter actually came from his arrogance and a one-night stand.
He ignored Aldridge Killian, who was actually very talented, and slept with Maya Hanson, and just solved a "little problem" for her by the way, which Maya regarded as the key to breaking through the flaws of the Extremis virus.
So two geniuses who had been harmed by Tony joined forces to form a miniature version of the "Avengers" against Tony alone.
Aldridge vowed to destroy everything for Tony.
Just when Tony started to fight back and found out that the Mandarin was actually a hired actor and his real enemy was Aldridge, the situation finally got out of control.
Aldridge used the Trojan horse program implanted by AIM in the "Iron Patriot" mecha to trick the pilot, Tony's old friend James Rhodes, into stealing the Iron Patriot and using it to invade the old American University.
The commander's Air Force One hijacked the president.
Aldridge, who was in a showdown, also kidnapped Pepper Pepper.
So far, it seems to be no different from history.
Apart from……
On Ange's private island, a group of Aldridge's men were swiftly crossing the dense woods and invading towards the villa.
They are not ordinary people.
Once upon a time, they were elite U.S. military veterans who had to retire due to disability.
Aldridge relied on the Extremis virus to lure them into the water, telling them that through this experiment, they could restore their permanently lost limbs.
These veterans who were controlled by the Extremis virus not only regained their broken arms or legs, but also gained powers beyond mortals.
At this time, they, who were heavily armed, suddenly heard some strange sounds.
"Listen, what is that?"
"Horse hoofbeats?"
"No! Not only that, why does it sound like a carriage?"
"Who the hell rides in a carriage these days!"
However, the neighing of the horses and the rolling of the wheels became louder and louder.
With rich combat experience, they immediately dispersed, occupied favorable terrain, and all aimed their M4 assault rifles equipped with large drum magazines in the direction of the sound.
There was only 10 centimeters of grass, so there wasn't much room for cover. There were only a few large rocks, which were already the best cover.
When the hillside they focused on was about a hundred meters away, a strange thing finally came into their sight.
It was indeed a carriage, but a Greek horse-drawn chariot that only existed in museums or historical legends.
The biggest difference from history is that the three war horses pulling the cart are not only extremely powerful, but also covered with luxurious gold ornaments. The bodies of the horses are translucent.
The sharp-eyed intruders discovered that standing in the carriage of the carriage was none other than Ang Wayne, the target of their trip.
Anyway, the boss's order was that no matter life or death, they opened fire on Ange without hesitation.
"Thud, tug, tug!" The sound of assault rifles, as dense as fried beans, resounded throughout the world.
It stands to reason that normal people would have been beaten into a sieve long ago.
The carriage rushed very fast, but the distance from 100 meters to 50 meters happened to be the advantageous shooting range of the assault rifle.
However, the scene they imagined of shooting horses and people together did not happen.
Instead, the bullets rained down on the horses' heads, causing unexpected refracted sparks to appear.
The bullet... ricocheted!
"This is impossible!" These uninformed 'little friends' were collectively shocked.
They may have other ideas, but the carriage was traveling too fast and it was too late to make other moves.
At this moment, some people tried to dodge, some were changing to more powerful grenades, and some were pulling the tabs of grenades. However, all their actions failed when the carriage driver suddenly whipped his whip - the speed of the carriage increased instantly.
More than double!?
This is outrageous!
It was like the catapult start of an electric car. The three immortal horses exerted force at the same time, and in the blink of an eye they flew across the small fifty-meter distance between them.
When the first three intruders were directly smashed into pieces by the undead horse, their limbs showed extremely weird twists. It was unknown whether the number of bones on his body reached four figures.
You can tell at a glance that he is dead.
"Ahhhh--" At this moment, an intruder saw that he could not escape. His whole body turned a strange red color, and he stretched out his hands to block the chest of the charging horse, trying to stop the horse with his inhuman strength.
progress.
To be honest, this strength is definitely not small. When a man and a horse collide, the ground under the man will sink half a meter deep on the spot.
The sad thing is that even if his strength is three times that of ordinary people, he is just a bigger bug in front of the magical horse given by Poseidon.
The war horse trampled over without any hesitation.
The next moment, he was directly rolled underground by the wheels of the car, unable to even self-destruct.
There seemed to be a mysterious black hole on the chariot, and the last and most violent red light that appeared on his body was suddenly sucked away.
Not to mention an explosion, not even a fart.
The only thing that could be heard throughout the countryside was the unpleasant, shuddering sound of wheels crushing bones.
"Run!"
The remaining guys ran away. Their agility was not twice that of ordinary people! Not to mention that golden light suddenly appeared from the meat grinders on both sides of the wheel, which suddenly expanded the harvesting range to ten meters on both sides.
"Ah ah ah -" Even if their whole bodies become translucent and all the power in their bodies is stimulated by the terminal virus, they still cannot resist the harvest of this death chariot.
The only guy who fell to the ground and didn't die on the spot thought he had a lucky escape.
Unexpectedly, a javelin shot exploded his head.
Maybe this is the last shot to survive a disaster!
Once they met, all the intruders were stunned.
At this moment, Ange was riding the fourth horse that pulled the carriage, a precious rouge horse from the Amazon, whipping him non-stop with a 20cm riding crop.
He looked around at the empty surroundings as if belatedly, and suddenly asked: "Did we hit something just now?"
Panthesilea pulled the horse's reins out of breath: "Maybe... just now... the wheels of the cart crushed some bugs. It's okay, let's continue driving."
"good!"
Not long after, Tony, who received the news that the president and his wife had been kidnapped, suddenly received an anonymous email on Iron Man.
In the photo attached to the email, there were clearly the corpses of a group of desperate virus soldiers.
There is only one line in the signature: A group of idiots have offended me.
At this time, James Rhodes, who was next to Tony, saw Tony stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?"
"A piece of good news."
"Huh? Aldridge's people seem to have provoked some guys in Gotham City who shouldn't be messed with."
Soon, the loyal American colonel knew who Aldridge had provoked.
