“And there's Ethan, he doesn't know what's good for him either. No matter how much I hinted, he wouldn't help me build the arc reactor.”

Hearing Dr. Ethan's name from Obadiah's mouth, Tony Stark's expression changed drastically, and Chen Yu's eyes also grew serious.

“What did you do to Ethan?”

For Tony Stark, besides his deceased parents, the three most important people in his life were Pepper, Ethan, and Obadiah.

Pepper was Tony Stark's personal secretary, capable of keeping Tony's chaotic daily life perfectly organized.

Ethan was Tony's lifesaver; the time spent in that cave allowed Tony to regain his confidence in life.

Obadiah was Tony's uncle, playing the role of an elder after Mr. and Mrs. Howard passed away.

But Obadiah's betrayal caused Tony immense heartache, and he didn't want to lose another important person!

“Ethan? I wouldn't do anything to him. I just had him locked in the basement here and watched after he refused to help.”

“Don't worry, I wouldn't torture someone who can't threaten my position. What if I hurt his clever brain? Although he's also an old stubborn fool, not as smart as you, Tony, he's seen how you built the reactor. I only need him to make a first-generation reactor. For business, sometimes good enough is enough!”

“After you die, I believe Ethan will know how to adapt to circumstances.”

“For me, one goose that lays golden eggs is enough!”

After Obadiah finished speaking, the Iron Monger's shoulder activated a semi-active laser-guided anti-tank missile.

A red laser aimed at Tony's glabella.

“Chen Yu, don't just stand there, come help!”

Feeling the strange sensation between his eyebrows, Tony quickly called out to Chen Yu for help.

Now that his faceplate was broken, his body couldn't withstand a missile attack.

“Tony, I thought you had some secret weapon. You're actually asking a child for help? You're really regressing.”

“Goodbye, Tony, and the little one over there.”

“Blame Tony!”

After Obadiah finished speaking, he fired the shoulder missile, controlled the Iron Monger to turn around, and prepared to leave.

Real men never look back at explosions!

After Obadiah obtained the MK3 blueprints, he thoroughly understood all its capabilities. He knew that the MK3 Iron Suit was at its end; with the faceplate malfunctioning, it couldn't defend against the anti-tank missile he fired.

Perhaps he couldn't bear to watch Tony Stark perish in the explosion.

That's why he turned around with such inexplicable confidence.

Watching the anti-tank missile fly straight towards him, Chen Yu simply flicked his wand, and a Dimension Door instantly appeared in front of Tony.

After the missile flew into the Dimension Door, it reappeared behind the Iron Monger, causing the Iron Monger's body to stagger from the explosion.

But the Iron Monger was also an Iron Suit meticulously designed by dozens of scientists for Obadiah. The anti-tank missile's explosion didn't leave many marks on it.

“Can you handle this big guy?”

Amidst the roar, Tony turned to Chen Yu and asked.

“Of course!”

Chen Yu gave Tony an OK gesture.

“Alright, you hold on for a bit. I'll find Pepper and Ethan, take them to a safe place, and then I'll be back!”

After Tony Stark finished speaking, he controlled the MK3 Iron Suit and ran towards the stairwell.

Not flying?

It seems the MK3 Iron Suit is indeed almost out of power.

If he still had energy, Tony would definitely not let the MK3 Iron Suit use such a low-key method to rescue people.

After the explosion, Obadiah turned around and saw Tony trying to escape. Although he couldn't understand why the missile bounced back, he assumed Tony was behind it and once again used an anti-tank missile, hoping to send Tony to his grave this time.

“Hey, it's hard for me when you keep ignoring me!”

Looking at Obadiah, whose eyes were only on Tony Stark, Chen Yu felt a little annoyed.

Obadiah initially didn't take Chen Yu seriously; the priority was to eliminate Tony. But when he glimpsed Chen Yu floating in mid-air from the corner of his eye, he immediately realized that Chen Yu belonged to those who possessed special powers.

As a veteran of Stark Industries, Obadiah naturally had access to some secrets that ordinary people couldn't touch.

For example, there was a group of people in this world who wielded special powers.

It seemed the mysterious boy, brought back from the cave by Tony, who mysteriously disappeared and then reappeared, was one of them.

He initially thought Tony had escaped the Ten Rings' kidnapping solely through his own strength. It seemed this kid must have played a part in it.

However, according to what Obadiah knew, this group of people wasn't very strong and hadn't completely transcended the human realm.

Even the legendary hero Captain America, who could easily defeat a fully armed elite squad on the battlefield, only displayed superhuman physical abilities.

And not like Chen Yu, floating in mid-air out of nowhere.

“No wonder Tony let you cover his retreat. So you're also a capable fellow.” Obadiah was still full of confidence. The Iron Monger's thick armor, made of military-grade alloy, had far superior defensive capabilities than tanks and aircraft carriers, giving him an immense sense of security.

So what if he could fly?

Tony's MK3 Iron Suit could also fly, and wasn't he still beaten into a hasty retreat by him?

So Obadiah aimed the missile at Chen Yu: “A freak like you might be worshipped as a god in underdeveloped regions of Africa, but just being able to fly is useless. Times have already changed. I don't believe your body can withstand a missile's explosion!”

After speaking, Obadiah fired another anti-tank missile.

This time, he wanted to see clearly how his missile was deflected.

The missile whistled through the air.

And just as the missile was about to touch Chen Yu's body, he instantly vanished.

The anti-tank missile drew a graceful arc across the sky and disappeared into the night.

Obadiah first cautiously checked his surroundings, finding no trace of Chen Yu.

“Hmph, he ran away? It seems besides flying, he has nothing special. Tony is more important…”

He said, preparing to control the Iron Monger to chase Tony.

“Woah~ oh! Is this the Iron Monger's cockpit? It looks quite cramped. I suggest arranging a co-pilot seat next time. It would be super cool to control the mech and take a girl for a ride!”

The sudden voice from above made Obadiah's hands and feet go numb instantly.

Obadiah looked back, only to see an unknown Dimension Door made of starlight directly passing through the Iron Monger and connecting above the cockpit. And Chen Yu, who had vanished, was now looking at Obadiah in the cockpit through the Dimension Door with interest.

Through the Dimension Door, Obadiah could see the starry sky behind Chen Yu.

Obadiah controlled the Iron Monger to grab upwards, only to find nothing above the Iron Monger. Chen Yu wasn't simply perched on top of the Iron Monger.

This little monster used a method he couldn't understand to connect to the internal space of the cockpit, and he wasn't even on his Iron Suit.

“You… you… what do you want to do?”

Obadiah was dripping with cold sweat. Without the protection of the Iron Monger armor, he was just an ordinary old man, seventy years old, who could knock down an ordinary person with one punch, but otherwise defenseless.

Facing a freak with special abilities like Chen Yu, naked, he felt somewhat lacking in confidence.

“Nothing, just borrowing your Iron Monger!”

After Chen Yu finished speaking, he reached out to grab Obadiah.

Obadiah, a mere mortal, despite desperately resisting inside the control room, was still no match for Chen Yu.

All of the Iron Monger's weapons were designed for external threats; not a single weapon considered what to do if an enemy invaded the interior and the pilot was threatened.

Now Obadiah deeply regretted it. He wished he had installed two guns inside the Iron Monger.

Obadiah resisted desperately, and Chen Yu became increasingly excited!

“Hehe, the more you resist, the more excited I get! I've been eyeing these large mechs for a long time! Let me play!”

“No! You freak, get out!”

Facing the villain, Chen Yu, utterly devoid of morality, dragged Obadiah, a seventy-year-old man, out of the Iron Monger and casually threw him to the ground, preparing to operate it happily.

Big is good, more is beautiful, caliber is justice, range is truth.

Chen Yu wholeheartedly agreed with Obadiah's aesthetic. If Obadiah had made his Iron Monger two or three times larger, Chen Yu would have been even happier.

That wouldn't be piloting an Iron Suit, but directly piloting a Gundam!

After throwing Obadiah to the ground, to prevent him from escaping, he added a full-body binding spell to stop him from causing more trouble. Looking at Obadiah lying stiff as a board on the ground, Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction.

This is rigor and professionalism.

Then he climbed into the Iron Monger's cockpit.

“Hmm… my hands and feet are a bit short… but that's okay!”

“I just need to temporarily extend my limbs with a spell, and I'll be able to reach the control stick…”

“Alright, everything is perfect!”

“Watch my Super Invincible Iron Monger, charge!”

Chen Yu piloted the Iron Monger, taking its first firm and powerful step.
