Marvel's I Can Control Metal

Looking at the carefully packaged reactor in his hand, Tony raised the corners of his mouth.

It was placed on the table.

Leo wanted to go up and take a look. Although he knew what it was, he still couldn't control his curiosity.

Tony turned back and pointed at Leo, "Don't damage it. I can give you that sports car, but you can't damage this one."

"Do not worry"

Looking at this memorable reactor, Leo thought of the final scene in Avengers 4 and felt a little dazed.

After a while, he put it back in its original position, glanced at Tony sitting in front of the computer, and smiled helplessly. The person he is now is not him yet, but one day, he will become him.

......

Thousands of kilometers away in Afghanistan, in a dark tent, several bearded soldiers were piecing together the fragments of the Mark [-] dug out from the desert.

Holding a few drawings left by Tony in his hands, he spent several days facing hundreds of fragments.

Finally, I pieced together a rough human shape, and there were still many tiny parts that I didn’t know where to place.

Standing next to him was a bald man with a cigarette in his hand. The burns on the right half of his head had scabbed over.

He looked at the helmet of Mark [-] with dark eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

After 20 days.

Tony sat in front of the computer round table that he had reassembled. There were a total of eight computers placed around him, all of which displayed different data on the armor.

Looking at the data on the two screens in front of him, Tony continued to analyze the problem.

"It was recorded that the main sensor failed above [-] feet, and there was also a problem with the pressurization system, possibly due to ice."

"Your perceptiveness is very keen, sir."

Jarvis continued, "If you're going to fly out of the atmosphere to other planets, maybe we should also enhance the exhaust system."

Tony looked back at the armor data on the three screens behind him, remembered the tragedy of falling from the roof, and continued talking.

"Contact Sith Corporation and reconfigure the metal material of the shell to use the gold-titanium alloy of the Seraph satellite."

"This should not only ensure the power-to-weight ratio, but also increase the strength of the fuselage, do you understand?"

"Yes, sir, do I want to show you the renderings?"

"Yes, show me"

The computer in front of Tony began to pop up some structural component diagrams.

Leo came down from upstairs, "Mr. Stark, I just heard something good, gold and titanium alloy, right?"

He said to Tony with a smile, licked his lips and looked at him expectantly.

"Leo, is tungsten alloy no longer to your taste? The metal consumption has been getting faster and faster recently."

Tony turned around and said, "A few days ago, it was only one ton in three days, but now it consumes almost one ton of metal in one day. What on earth have you done?"

"Don't you know, my abilities require metal assistance, and the higher the quality of the metal, the less I need. Although tungsten alloy is great, I have to change my taste occasionally."

Leo smiled flatteringly. It is true that ten tons of metal have been consumed in these days. Although tungsten alloy is not particularly expensive, it adds up to 300 million US dollars.

Leo has lived in Tony's house for so long. Although Tony didn't say anything and often verbally excluded Leo, he already regarded Leo as a friend in his heart.

Tony, who originally had only Pepper and Rhodes as his best friends, was absolutely not stingy when it came to his friends.

"Jarvis, buy two more tons of gold and titanium alloy."

"Okay, sir."

"Leo, do you know how expensive this thing is? The black market dealers outside have been eyeing this kind of metal. In the black market, one kilogram is worth three thousand US dollars. You are too rich to eat it." Tony couldn't help complaining. .

Tonight's Disney Concert Hall is rolling out the red carpet, and Tony Stark will present his third donation to the Fire Department Home Fund, which has become a gathering place for celebrities in Los Angeles.

Such background sounds came from the TV that had been playing on the wall, and Tony's attention was attracted by his name.

"Jarvis, did we receive the invitation?"

"No relevant records, sir."

As the news continued to play out on television, he had not been seen in public since his outrageous remarks at a press conference, and there were claims that he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and had been bedridden for weeks.

"But whatever the truth, no one expects him to be here tonight."

Tony looked a little disdainful after hearing this, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"The synthesis of the renderings is complete." A three-dimensional image of the Mark III appeared on the computer. The golden armor looked very eye-catching.

"A bit too flashy, what do you think?"

"My thoughts, you've always been so low-key," Jarvis replied.

Tony turned around and poured a glass of water from the kettle, just in time to see his beloved red and yellow classic car.

"Add a little bit of that flashy red into it."

"Okay, this will maintain your low-key style."

Leo listened to the conversation between Tony and Jarvis, and he really fell in love with the artificial intelligence Jarvis more and more.

And Tony never seemed to regard Jarvis as an intelligent system.

The word us is often used in all conversations, as if Jarvis is always with him.

But Leo suddenly frowned and realized that what Tony poured out of the kettle was actually chlorophyll juice. It seemed that he had discovered the palladium metal poisoning caused by his many experiments.

Because of the built-in reactor, metal palladium poisoning would occur. It was not until the information left by Howard Stark was found, new alternative elements were found, and the fourth-generation reactor was built that the problem was solved.

Of course, it would also be a solution to remove the shrapnel from Tony's chest and then externalize the reactor, as was done with Rhodes' war machine and Ivan Vanko's death whip.

Leo is well aware of Tony's character, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder, self-destructive tendencies, and is a typical narcissist.

Although it is undeniable that Tony, as a genius, CEO of Stark Industries and other titles, has narcissistic capital.

This kind of confidence makes Tony think that he can control his life.

However, once a narcissistic person realizes that failure is inevitable, he is likely to collapse or even self-destruct.

This was most vividly demonstrated by Tony in the palladium poisoning incident.

And the current armor still uses the reactor on Tony's chest to supply energy. Can it be externally installed?

of course can.

Tony said that he will not produce weapons, weapons that kill people.

Does that steel armor count as a weapon?

Doesn't count.

As long as Tony is in the Iron Suit, controls the suit, and charges his body, Iron Man is not a weapon and will not fall into the hands of bad people.

The core of the steel suit lies in the reactor. A suit without a reactor is basically harmless.

So Tony didn't dare to put the reactor outside the Iron suit. Once he did, anyone could put on this suit. Iron Man was no longer Iron Man, just a weapon. Tony made the most powerful suit in history. Powerful mass murder weapons.

As Tony said later, this is a high-tech exoskeleton and cannot be called a weapon. Only when I personally charge and control the suit can I be Iron Man.

So for Tony, even if Leo takes out the fragments from his chest now, he will not remove the reactor from his chest.

Placing the reactor externally will greatly increase the risk of leakage.

......

"Coloring completed."

A red and gold picture of the Mark [-] appeared on the screen.

"I like it, make it and be horny"

"Automatic assembly begins and is expected to be completed in five hours."

Tony stood up and glanced at his watch, "No need to wait for me, honey."

"Leo, do you want to go out and play?"
