Marvel’s Big Villain

On the outskirts of Los Angeles, a beach house in Malibu.

Tony Stark is alone in the laboratory on the basement floor.

The lights were turned off, it was dark and silent, and even Jarvis, who liked to chatter, didn't speak.

Jarvis is an artificial intelligence with high emotional intelligence, he knows that the young master is at a critical moment of fear and confusion.

This is a hurdle in his heart, and he must take the initiative to overcome it by himself. The help of outsiders is just icing on the cake.

At this moment, Tony felt like a mess in his heart.

He was both terrified and curious about Jason's superpowers.

What was frightening was that he was afraid that Jason would suddenly come to his door and end everything for him.

Curious, what principle does this superpower belong to? Can it be cracked with scientific methods, so as to find a way to restrain and target it.

Tony sat on the office chair, propped his head on one hand, and rested the other hand casually on his lap.

This position has been maintained for several hours, until the first rays of sunlight from the east came in through the vents, and Tony was awakened.

He stood up, moved his limbs, and rubbed his hands violently on his face.

After regaining some energy, Tony said, "Jarvis, turn on the TV."

Jarvis's voice hesitated: "Sir, your mood is very unstable. I suggest that you should not watch TV at this time."

There was a self-deprecating smile on Tony's face: "Since I set foot in the arms industry, there are people who criticize and insult me ​​in the news every day. Over the years, I have gotten used to it. Turn on the TV."

"Okay, sir."

As soon as the voice fell, the large-screen TV in the laboratory lit up, and it was time for the morning news.

The host was slightly sad, and said the casualties last night in a heavy tone.

In the battle with Jason last night, a total of more than 300 police officers, more than 200 soldiers, more than 100 Stark industrial security guards, and dozens of onlookers who liked to join in the fun were sacrificed.

In the United States, which is known as the world's most powerful military country, hundreds of casualties occurred. This is definitely a case that shocked the whole country. What's more, this case was broadcast live in the whole process, and the psychological shadow it brought to ordinary citizens may not last a lifetime. obliterate.

Jason Walter has successfully surpassed that adult and has become the greatest fear and shadow in the hearts of the American people and the government.

Seeing the bloody numbers on TV, Tony's heart ached a little.

Although he is a cold-blooded death merchant, he has not completely lost humanity.

If he hadn't underestimated the enemy, if he had done enough research beforehand, if he had been more careful, these people would not have died.

After a long silence, Tony said: "Jarvis, in the name of the Stark Charity Foundation, distribute 500,000 US dollars to all victims. The company's more than 100 security guards will also issue an additional 500,000 US dollars in condolence compensation .”

"Yes, sir," Jarvis said.

After saying these words, Tony sat back on the chair exhausted.

Losing money and compensation is the only thing he can do now, and it is also the only way to alleviate his conscience.

As soon as the TV screen changed, reporters took to the streets to interview passers-by for their views on the incident.

"I think the military and the government are so incompetent. The military spending approved by Congress is increasing every year, but they let a group of robbers commit big crimes repeatedly."

"Jason Walter is too dangerous. Originally he was just an ordinary robber, but suddenly he has magical superpowers. If the government doesn't kill him sooner, the whole world will be in crisis because of him in the future."

"I want to say to Mr. Tony Stark, your steel armor is a pile of rotten shit. If it weren't for your blind self-confidence, if it wasn't for provocation, these hundreds of lives would not have to die at all."

………………

Stark's face twitched, feeling a little upset.

But although what the man said was harsh, it was extremely true.

In the face of Jason's superpowers, his steel armor was indeed like a puddle of shit, and it didn't play a single role.

Perhaps, the Iron Armor wasn't that powerful, and it was he himself who fell into a state of self-indulgence.

Just when Tony fell into self-doubt, Jarvis said, "Sir, Miss Pepper is here."

Tony looked up at the screen.

I saw that Pepper was stopped by the security outside and was being carefully checked.

The first thing I did when I got home in the early morning was to upgrade the security inside and outside the villa again.

Within a five-kilometer radius of the villa, there are security fighters and armored tanks stationed with live ammunition.

The armed helicopter on the roof is ready to take off at any time. Once someone suspected of Jason breaks in, Tony can leave immediately by helicopter.

After ten minutes of careful inspection, Pepper finally came to the villa and walked into the laboratory.

Tony didn't greet him, but concentrated on watching the news.

The speeches in the news were very harsh, and Pepper frowned, unable to listen any longer.

"Mute! (Mute)"

The next moment, the big-screen TV immediately went silent.

Pepper walked up to him and sat down in a wheelchair.

The four eyes are facing each other.

I saw that Tony's complexion was dim, his eyes dull, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness, and he completely lost the spirit of life and vitality in the past.

Obviously, what happened last night tormented him physically and mentally, and he stayed up all night.

Pepper was a little distressed, she moved closer, clasped Tony's big hand tightly with both hands, and encouraged: "How long do you want to immerse yourself in past failures?"

Tony raised his head and looked at her confusedly.

Seeing his eyes, Pepper became very angry, and angrily said: "Jason is squandering your money at this moment, are you willing? Looking at those victims and their families, don't you feel sad? Listening to TV Aren't you angry with those words that slander you?"

Tony said: "Not reconciled! Distressed! Angry! But what can I do."

Pepper continued: "Aren't you a genius inventor, then hurry up and develop a weapon that can kill Jason."

Tony smiled wryly: "The Iron Armor is already the product I am most proud of, but in front of Jason's superpowers, he is like an educational toy for a three-year-old child."

Pepper frowned: "Then you develop a weapon that is more powerful than the steel armor!"

Tony sighed, shook his head and said, "I don't know if I have this ability, or I don't know if technology can defeat superpowers."

Pepper looked into his eyes and said seriously: "Believe me, if even you can't beat Jason, then no one in this world can beat him."

Hearing these words, a warm current surged from the depths of Tony's heart, and then flowed all over his limbs.

Tony seemed to have been given a shot in the arm. He regained his energy and joked, "Why do you trust me so much? It can't be that you have a crush on me, right?"

Pepper gave him a blank look: "You pay too much, I don't want to change to a stingy boss."

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

The haze shrouded in the depths of Tony's heart finally shone into a ray of gentle sunshine.
