"You're kidding, man." Tony's depression eased a little, and he sat up from the ground and shook his head. "I've tried every kind of substance, every possible combination, every element I've tried."

Although he didn't see his efforts with his own eyes, but from the deep disappointment in his tone, he can guess how many experiments Tony organized, and how many times he was overwhelmed by the pain of failure, and finally made him accept that he was hopeless reality.

But Eric didn't flinch, he stared into Tony's eyes, the gray-blue pupils reflected the crystal light.

"Then bring something new and exciting. Don't tell me Howard educated you to be a good baby who can only follow others."

Tony's face twitched immediately at his words.

"You sound like you know him." Tony said angrily, the last thing he wanted was to be compared with his father's name.

It is extremely difficult for a genius to be willing to submit to another genius, even if it is a close relative, let alone Stark, a father and son who are proud and have some knots.

Not long ago, Justin Hammer used his father's name to push him back at the hearing. Now he especially doesn't want to hear about his father.

Although he felt uncomfortable, these dissatisfaction added some motivation to him. Tony regained his strength, exited the armor mode, and directed the artificial intelligence butler Jarvis to start taking out the instruments he had used and reassembling them.

Now the game room is in a mess, and all kinds of tables and chairs have been pushed far away by the shock wave, so there is no need to work hard to clear the room.

"Do you really think this will work?" Tony habitually satirized Eric while making minor adjustments. "With these crude metal pipes and some old wrenches?"

"Then what do you want, you want me to move the Large Hadron Collider from Geneva?" Eric is also operating, he has learned a lot in another space, and the mutant's talent makes him even more Can do things that ordinary scientists can't do. "Instead of complaining and approaching death step by step, it is better to do something to save your life - Mr. Stark's last pair of underwear is almost falling off his waist. He is still trying to keep the hat on his head Not to be blown away, is this comical image the real Iron Man?"

"Of course not." Tony denied Eric's sarcasm.

"Then let it go. I want you to give up your previous experience and devote yourself to new ideas." Eric said, knocking on the docked instrument.In the crisp metallic sound.This extremely crude and small accelerator was finally completed.

The first particle accelerator was called a cyclotron, and it was only twelve centimeters in diameter—small enough to be lifted in the hand.To build such a machine, an electron beam tube is evacuated, magnets can be used to bend the beam of charged particles, and a radio-frequency oscillator, or radio-frequency cavity, is used to accelerate the particles.Of course, what they have to do now is not the original model, but with Eric's help, those preparations have become much easier.In his powerful magnetic field, two beams of light-bearing particles are quickly launched.

"Will it work?" Watching the two rays of light collide.Tony asked nervously. He himself is a top inventor, but at this moment, he pins his hopes more on luck.

"Try it." Eric replied succinctly.

Speaking of it, the method of making new elements is very simple. First, two elements must be carefully selected, and the sum of their atomic numbers must be equivalent to the atomic number of the new element.They are then put into an accelerator, where electrons, protons and other subatomic particles are accelerated and collided at very high speeds.Some of these particles stick together, creating a new element with a new atomic number.

For atoms of low atomic number.A nuclear reaction occurs by impact, with a high probability of generating additional elements.

but.For atoms with a high atomic number, due to the increase in the number of protons in the nucleus, the huge Coulomb repulsion has to be overcome when the nuclear reaction occurs through impact, so it is difficult to combine to form new elements with a higher atomic number.This is why it is so difficult in the history of chemistry to discover a new element that does not exist on the earth, or to recreate a new element in physics.

Now Eric and Tony will challenge this difficult task with their talents and brainpower.

"Boom!" A blinding white light flashed, and the high voltage caused a broken circuit board to be burned, and the pungent smell came out immediately.

"Damn it!" Tony dropped the goggles and cursed fiercely.

"Replace that circuit board, get a better one." Eric was unmoved.

Then they hit the road again, testing Tony's ideas again and again despite a string of failures, and as time went on, his draft booklet was turned page by page, and what remained was thinner and thinner.

"No, this won't work." After another failure, Tony mopped the sweat off his brow and screamed. The failure made him more and more anxious, and his face was covered with oil paint. "The power needs to be increased, there is simply not enough energy available right now."

The superconducting collider in Geneva is four kilometers long and requires [-] to [-] megawatts of power, which is the total power consumption of [-] to [-] households. The one in front of me is small, but in order to achieve the best As a result, the power it consumes doesn't scale down as much as the size.

"It would be nice if Otto was here, and I can borrow his artificial sun." Eric mused, but Tony didn't want to.

"Hey, you said Doctor Octopus in front of Iron Man? This is too ridiculous!" The playboy picked up the wrench and smashed the metal tube hard, and in the painful scream of the instrument, he connected his own Ark reactor----with It's fitting that Iron Man's core goes to save Iron Man's life.

After the power connection is completed, the accelerator restarts.When two beams of particles collide, the Eric converging magnetic field makes all the particle beams move in one direction, so as to obtain better results.

Time passed by, although the powerful radiation was blocked by Eric, the temperature of the room was still rising, and Tony was sweating more and more, but no decent discovery was made. Finally, after a burst of flickering, the accelerator stopped running ---- The instrument overheated, and Eric had to stop it to avoid accidents.

The strong light was lost, and the room was once again occupied by a dark tide.When the last ray of light in Tony's eyes faded.He became ice-cold all over, as if soaked in the poisonous water of despair again and could not get relief.Contrary to his frozen body, his heart was being burned by a ball of flames, all kinds of strong emotions were intertwined and almost made his chest explode, and he endured it for a while.Suddenly, Tony couldn't control himself and jumped up and kicked the instrument frantically.

"I knew it! I knew it!" Tony's eyes were red.The usual demeanor was gone. "How can a new element be produced so easily? Even if it appears, it will decay and disappear. We can't keep it!"

He cursed incoherently, and just pulled himself together when he was hit again, this time Tony hurt more than before.

Amidst the cursing and kicking, another voice sounded in the darkness.

"Take three 10-minute breaks, then start over."

Eric's voice had a metallic quality to it.Cold and hard without any emotional ups and downs.It happens to be a wonderful inverse ratio to Tony.

"No, there is no experiment Eric, I won't listen to you anymore, it's all over, I'm going to enjoy the rest of my life, I won't fucking waste my life." Tony's voice became louder and louder, until At last he yelled as hard as he could. "Listen, I'm fed up with you! Why the hell should I listen to you. This is my life, I don't care anymore. Why do you discipline me, I'm not your student!"

"Then you can die now, anyway, you have enjoyed life, you have no regrets, right? I can help you!" Eric shouted back with a louder voice.

Then he waved his hand, and Tony was rolled up by a long steel pipe, gesturing to be thrown through the glassless floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Ah!" Tony yelled, hugging the slender window frame tightly.

"Do you want to kill me, you lunatic!" The steel pipe returned to its original position, and Tony hurriedly crawled back to the room, lying on the ground and angrily accused him.

No one answered, Eric looked around, those metal parts that were kicked down and smashed and deformed one by one floated up from the ground and docked again.

Tony watched his movements. In the faint morning light of dawn, Eric's appearance gradually overlapped with another figure, which was as cold and tough, and operated precisely like a machine.

"Do you know my father?" Tony asked, before Eric could answer, he continued. "He was indifferent and calculating. He never said he loved me or liked me. He just arranged my future and told me to follow the steps... But I was never reconciled."

Eric was silent for a while, this was the darkest hour before dawn, the cold wind blew into the room, and the silence inside was like a tomb.

"I can understand, Tony." Eric looked over Tony's body, as if he could see the world he had left long ago. "I had a father like that too...but that's not a reason to give up on yourself."

He spoke slowly, as if the words consumed a great deal of strength.

"Maybe they are right, but we are our own masters, and we should control our own destiny, no matter whether the result is falling to the ground and dying."

"Okay, let's try again."

Tony sighed and stood up again, and this time they made the best of everything they could.

Two luminous particle beams shot out again to form a third beam. Under the action of the magnetic field, this beam of light was guided into the brand-new Ark reactor. , Tony was pleasantly surprised to see the birth of a stable triangular new element sample.

"What are you doing?" A female voice sounded from outside, and the hangover Pepper was awakened and walked in from outside the room.

The one who greeted her was the ecstatic Tony. Tony hugged her vigorously and circled her in the air several times before announcing that he was finally out of the clutches of death.

"So, you kept it from me from the beginning to the end?" Although Pepper had already guessed the reason, he was still very annoyed when he heard Tony talking about it.

"I know it's my fault. Every time I have trouble, you help me. I don't want to make you sad." Tony tried his best to explain, and then changed the subject. "Thanks to Eric this time... Hello, Eric?"

Pepper and Tony looked over at the same time, and there was no one in the room, only the broken curtains swaying in the wind under the sunlight. (to be continued~^~)
