After getting the suitcase, which Tony had urged him for several times, from the Weasley Twins, Chen Yu switched game worlds.
He used his wand to open a Dimension Door to Tony’s luxurious villa, and stepped through.
The villa was quiet, with no one in sight.
“Tony! Tony Stark! The suitcase you’ve been longing for, enchanted with the Undetectable Extension Charm, is ready! Come out and inspect it!”
“Pay up quickly so I can go back and settle the final payment!”
Chen Yu called out twice, but there was no response from inside the villa.
Chen Yu scanned the dark villa. It seemed Tony and Pepper were not here right now.
Looking at the sky, not being in the villa at this time, perhaps they went to some banquet or pool party?
Just as Chen Yu was about to return to Kamar-Taj, the lights inside the villa turned on one by one.
Chen Yu thought Tony had returned and called out with a hint of joy, “Tony, the suitcase you wanted is ready!”
The sooner he could sell it, the sooner he could earn the price difference. For this kind of inter-world transaction, multiplying the price by three, four, five, six, seven, or eight times was quite normal!
However, it wasn't Tony who spoke, but his AI butler, jarvis.
jarvis, in his artificial voice, said to Chen Yu, “Hello, Mr. Chen Yu, welcome to Tony Stark’s villa. I apologize, Mr. Tony Stark is currently engaged in a fierce battle with an enemy at Stark Industries headquarters and is not here.”
“Fighting at Stark Industries headquarters?”
Chen Yu thought about the plot of Iron Man. Could it be that this was the moment of Tony and Obadiah’s falling out?
Iron Man battling Iron Monger, it was definitely worth a trip for him to see.
Who doesn’t like to watch two robots fighting with their fists?
“Thanks, jarvis, I’ll go take a look.”
He opened another Dimension Door, this time setting the location on the rooftop of the Stark Industries headquarters building, and stepped through.
The higher the floor, the stronger the wind.
Chen Yu arrived on the rooftop of Stark Industries, standing by the railing, the howling wind making his wizard robe flap loudly.
Seeing two guys in metal armor, like robots, fighting in the street, Chen Yu pulled out sunflower seeds, munching on them and commenting, “Tony isn’t doing well, isn’t he being beaten by Iron Monger?”
Compared to the Iron Monger driven by Obadiah, who didn't care about the lives of passersby, Tony Stark, controlling his MK3 Iron Suit, tried to save an unfamiliar person in a car. First, the car was dragged and skidded, then he was violently sent flying a long distance by a passing motorcycle that Iron Monger casually grabbed, and then stomped underfoot.
Finally, he was thrown into a nearby bus by Iron Monger and took a direct hit from a miniature rocket.
Tsk tsk tsk, it was truly miserable.
The violent explosion caused panic among the pedestrians on the street, who began to flee in disarray. Tony also used the shockwave from the explosion to fly up, creating distance from Iron Monger.
Seeing Tony get up, Iron Monger naturally wouldn't let him escape.
If Tony didn't die tonight, all his plans would be wasted.
Iron Monger’s legs also deformed, and he flew up just like the MK3 Iron Suit.
Thus, the two began an aerial chase.
He fled, he pursued, he had no way to escape.
Soon, a strange sound came from above Chen Yu's head. Chen Yu, still cracking sunflower seeds, saw the red and gold Iron Suit, in a rather gaudy color scheme, landing in an extremely clumsy posture.
The flames from his hands and feet flickered on and off, like a gas stove running out of gas.
This caused his flight path to be very unstable, going up and down, but he still managed a successful emergency landing, albeit in an undignified posture, landing headfirst and then falling face down in front of Chen Yu.
Seeing the Iron Suit tumble forward, slide, lose a few parts, and finally stop at his feet.
Chen Yu quickly spat out the sunflower seed shells, clapped his hands, pretended nothing happened, and feigned looking at the scenery.
The next moment, it seemed the improper landing had damaged the Iron Suit's mask control program. The Iron Suit’s mask slowly opened, revealing Tony’s now weary face.
Seeing Tony’s forehead bleeding, it seemed the black technology shock absorption wasn't very effective. He started bleeding from such a short fall, so Chen Yu teased, “Tony, why is your newly designed MK3 Iron Suit so weak? It looks like you’re going to lose this fight…”
Tony struggled to stand up from the ground. Hearing Chen Yu’s voice, he paused, moved his arm, and threw a damaged mechanical glove that had lost its operational ability onto the ground.
He forced a smile at Chen Yu that was uglier than crying: “Chen Yu? When did you get here? No wonder jarvis told me to fly this way, so it was you here.”
Then, hearing Chen Yu’s evaluation of his Iron Suit, Tony immediately clarified.
“It’s not the MK3 Iron Suit’s fault. Obadiah cunningly stole my second-generation arc reactor. I’m currently using the old one from the cave! This caused the Iron Suit to be low on energy, otherwise, I would definitely have beaten this crudely made Iron Monger!”
“Besides, I had already planned a strategy. If it weren’t for jarvis’s reminder, I would have already lured Iron Monger to ten thousand meters above sea level. His Iron Monger definitely hasn’t undergone de-icing treatment, so I would have a chance to win!”
“De-icing? Tony, have you fallen and hit your head? Iron Monger doesn’t have that weakness at all! The reference data for designing Iron Monger was directly based on your latest MK3 suit design from your computer, a collaborative effort by dozens of top scientists. If they couldn’t create an arc reactor to power the armor, I wouldn’t even need to steal your reactor; I could just directly kick you off the board!”
Hearing Iron Monger’s voice, Tony immediately turned around. A giant steel monster descended from the sky, crashing onto the rooftop of Stark Industries, causing the entire rooftop to tremble violently.
“Tony, do you think everyone is as flashy as you? Designing Iron Suits to be so gaudy and ostentatious. Look at my Iron Monger, this is true art of war. More is good, big is beautiful, caliber is justice, and range is truth! Your soft and flimsy appearance only satisfies your extravagant desires!”
“The company is the same. For you, Stark Industries is simply not important. You have never cared about Stark Industries. It was me! It was I who built Stark Industries from nothing, bit by bit, toiling day in and day out, finally making it the wealthiest corporation in the world.”
“And you! After returning, you impulsively decided to close the weapons division and develop ridiculous clean energy. Do you know how many people your decision will offend? Do you know how many billions of dollars we will lose? Do you know how many companies are coveting our position and secretly rejoicing?”
“No, you don’t know, and you’re not interested! You’re just an overgrown playboy! For you, Stark Industries will only decline in your hands! So, I cannot let you continue to make mistakes. You are not fit to manage Stark Industries. Only I can lead Stark Industries to its peak!”
Obadiah clearly harbored long-standing resentment towards Tony Stark. Seeing the disheveled Tony, he directly spoke his mind.
According to what Obadiah said, after Chen Yu put the MK1 suit into the Serenitea Pot, Obadiah, upon learning that Tony had designed the Iron Suit, clearly had ulterior motives again.
He chose to infiltrate Tony’s laboratory and copied the design blueprints for the latest MK3 suit.
Thinking about it, before Obadiah revealed his ambition, he was Tony’s most respected elder, possessing the highest authority next to Tony and Pepper for jarvis. It wasn't impossible for him to deceive jarvis with sweet talk, and under the guise of doing what was best for Tony, openly trick jarvis into giving him the MK3 suit blueprints from the database.
It was Tony Stark’s fault for being a complete idiot in life and overly confident, never considering that Obadiah wanted to replace him as the director of Stark Industries.
Obadiah was also confused. Tony Stark had never been very interested in Stark Industries. If he had talked to Tony properly, appealing to his emotions and reason, he might have achieved his goal without bloodshed.
Moreover, after taking the arc reactor from Tony Stark’s chest, he left with the arc reactor without finishing him off while Tony was incapacitated.
This gave Tony a chance to fight back.
Tony being an idiot in life was a well-known fact.
But Obadiah, you old fox who throws tantrums in the business world, actually made such a rookie mistake.
If you don't cut weeds at the roots, they will grow back with the spring breeze.
I really don’t understand what you villains are thinking, always giving the protagonist a chance.
Perhaps Obadiah still had other thoughts about Tony Stark and didn’t want to kill him?
Don't understand, not really.
Chen Yu shook his head, not quite understanding Obadiah's thoughts.
