Marvel: Spear Bureau Technical Advisor

When he came back with the finalized electromagnetic pulse rifle forward, Colonel Rhodes had already put on the silver-white Mark armor designed for him under Tony's bewitching.Now, his whole body except his face has been wrapped in battle armor.

"Test preparations are ready, see you buddy." Tony winked forward.

Looking forward to Colonel Rhodes who was full of novelty and excitement, he kindly reminded: "Roddy, are you sure you want to test it yourself?"

"Yes...huh?" No matter how dull Colonel Rhodes was, he still felt something was wrong, "But now I'm not sure."

"What's the matter, man." Tony looked at Colonel Rhodes with disdain, "There is no danger, it's just a basic test; you don't need to fly into the sky, you don't need to fight terrorists, just stand there."

Colonel Rhodes looked back and forth between Xiangqian and Tony, and his heart became more and more suspicious.

Tony sneered and said: "Okay, okay; I admit that I overestimated your courage, Roddy. You just stand aside and watch, I will come in person. OK? Jarvis, help Mr. Colonel take off the armor , and prepare video recordings and record data..."

"NO, NO, NO!" Colonel Rhodes couldn't hold back his face anymore, he waved his hands again and again, stopping Tony's actions; "I come, I will come, I can do it."

Qiangqian couldn't help mourning for Rody in his heart; aggressive tactics are actually a cheap trick, it may not work on enemies, but it often works surprisingly well when used between friends.

You friends, you can't lose face if you lose anything.

Tony was still there: "Hey, this is the most dangerous experiment - very dangerous - I warn you, as a novice pilot you can't control the unintended consequences..."

Colonel Rhodes was desperate to jump into the trap: "You have to trust a senior air force colonel. I have served as a fighter test pilot for three years; handling unexpected situations is my job."

Xiangqian was assembling the rifle while listening to the intrigue of two middle-aged clowns.The rifle that has been finalized is no longer the semi-finished product it was before, but looks like a complete firearm anyway.

"Ready?" Qiang asked.

"Of

course! "Tony said hurriedly; then he tapped on Colonel Rhodes' armored chest, giving a thumbs up specially; "You are the bravest, buddy. "

Turning around, he turned his back on Colonel Rhodes and blinked forward.

"Of course!" You didn't know that Colonel Rhodes, who was cheated, had a confident expression on his face, but he froze completely when he saw the rifle in Xiangqian's hand.

It was a 10 mm large-caliber sniper rifle with a length close to that of the Type 12.7, but a strange asynchronous gun with a barrel that was nearly twice as large in diameter.The cylindrical bullet that is being pushed into the clip makes people shudder just by looking at its size.

"What kind of gun is that? Don't tell me it's an anti-material weapon!" Colonel Rhodes still knows the goods.

"Don't worry, Roddy; I'm using the low-power mode, which theoretically doesn't have the ability to penetrate Mark's armor." Push the magazine forward to the gun body, and the bullet is loaded.

"Theoretically?" Colonel Rhodes' eyes almost popped out.

Shrugging his shoulders forward: "Well, we tested it in the laboratory, and it is indeed impossible to penetrate."

"Then can I have a look at your test records first?" Colonel Rhodes asked hastily.

"Sorry, I can't. Cover the mask!" Without giving Colonel Rhodes a chance to struggle, Qianqian raised the gun and pulled the trigger; at such a short distance, even the effort of aiming was saved.

Rhode's reaction was fast enough. When he pulled the trigger forward, he dropped his visor, completely protecting himself from the beginning to the end.

"Hey!" A crisp metal impact sounded from the belly of the armor.Although the powerful kinetic energy of the ball bullet gave Colonel Rhodes a strong sense of vibration, it did not penetrate the armor.

It's just that before Rhodes was lucky, he heard a "buzzing" sound, and then the entire armor was like a solidified statue, unable to move anymore.

"What happened?" Colonel Rhodes was a little panicked; the display screen in front of him went black directly after a "sizzling" sound, and the armor that could have been able to respond in time with the wearer's body movements now resorted to milking. I couldn't move even a little bit of strength.

The two arms were better, and they could drive the transmission gears to swing with enough strength, and the two legs basically stopped moving; Rhodes felt that his legs seemed to be buried in the solidified cement, and he was completely pulled out. not come out.

Rhodes gritted his teeth and exerted strength on his legs, but he swayed back and forth with the entire armor, almost losing his balance and falling down; so he didn't dare to move at all.

"Dangdang" Someone knocked twice on the visor, and then Tony's voice came: "Are you okay, Roddy?"

The sound was isolated by the armor, and it became very small when it was heard by Colonel Rhodes' ears.

"Of course not!" Rhode shouted loudly, "What happened?"

"It's an electromagnetic pulse." This time it was a forward voice, "The electromagnetic pulse destroyed all the electrical systems inside the armor."

When Rhode heard the word "electromagnetic pulse", he understood that he had been tricked by Tony.

"Do you have a way to reboot?" he called from inside the armor.

Xiangqian said: "I'm afraid it won't work! The Ark reactor is fine, but all the external output lines were burned due to a short circuit."

"What?" Rhodes exclaimed angrily, "Am I going to be trapped in this iron shell forever?"

Tony comforted: "It's okay, Roddy! We can microwave power from the outside and restore part of the transmission system. Be patient, it will take up to 15 minutes!" His voice was full of uncontrollable gloating.

Colonel Rhodes was very irritable, but he could only wait patiently in the dark and dreary space.After a while, he felt the armor being attached to the leash, then being pulled up and moved.

Soon, the black lacquered screen lit up first, and the back armor automatically fell off, revealing Colonel Rhodes' uneasy face.

"I almost thought I was going to suffocate in it; is this what you call an experiment without any danger?"

Tony said plausibly: "Of course not. I said that this experiment is very dangerous. Did you forget? I also said that I admire your courage very much."

"Yes, it's very dangerous." Rhode sneered, "Wearing this armor to fight is indeed very dangerous. An electromagnetic pulse can turn it into an iron coffin."

"It's actually 'Iron Maiden', I like this code name better." Qianqian stabbed at the side with the knife secretly; he put down the rifle, picked up the peeled off visor and observed carefully to test the damage effect of the electromagnetic pulse.

Tony is not to be outdone: "Actually, I have already designed the electromagnetic pulse protection layer; all subsequent models will have the ability to resist electromagnetic pulse."

"It doesn't matter." Xiang Qiang said, "The low-power mode I just used, the warhead only has the ability of electromagnetic pulse attack, but not the ability of physical damage."

"Physical damage?"

Nodding forward, he said: "Yes, in the high-power mode, the warhead will obtain huge kinetic energy through electromagnetic effects. After hitting the target, it will first produce physical damage, destroy the integrity of the armor, and then burst out an electromagnetic pulse."

"Mark's armor is so big, no matter how good your integration engineering is, the electromagnetic protection layer must be integrated with the armor itself." He knocked on the visor in his hand and said, "Once the surface layer of the armor is destroyed, the electromagnetic protection layer will also be damaged." There is a high probability that they will be destroyed at the same time.”

Tony picked up the rifle on the ground and looked it up and down thoughtfully; "So, this rifle can not only fire electromagnetic pulses, but also fire bullets with electromagnetic kinetic energy?"

"Of course, I designed the bullet specifically for this gun; in low power mode, the warhead is just a high-energy storage battery for emitting electromagnetic pulses; but in high power mode, it is no different from an anti-tank armor-piercing round." explained forward.

"How much does this gun cost?" Colonel Rhodes stepped into the role of a military equipment expert.

Qianqian smiled and said, "About twenty thousand dollars."

"That is to say, for the price of one mark armor, you can manufacture thousands of this rifle?" Colonel Rhodes felt unbelievable.

"About four thousand." Qianqian asked with a smile, "How about it, can this rifle cancel the military's plan to install Mark armor?"

"I don't know; but, if it were me, I would never want to wear this armor and go to China." Colonel Rhodes complained a little depressed.

Tony didn't want to hear people belittle his invention. He deliberately changed the subject, pointed to the trigger on the rifle and asked, "Why do I see a third mode besides the high-power mode? What's the last mode?"

Qianqian was startled, and quickly stopped: "Wait, the third mode is..."

"boom!"

The entire laboratory fell into complete darkness.

"Large-scale electromagnetic pulse burst." Xiangqian finished what he had no time to say in the darkness.While speaking, he touched the corner of the laboratory according to his memory, and pushed open the only ventilation window.

A thin ray of skylight leaked in through the window, restoring some light to the laboratory.

Tony, who was holding a rifle, looked embarrassed; while Colonel Rhodes, who was still sealed in the armor and had just taken off half of his right arm armor, looked dull.

Tony carefully and nonchalantly put the rifle on the experimental bench, pretending that it had nothing to do with him.

Rhodes looked at the arm armor that was half off, and then quietly disassembled the equipment that was completely down, and asked blankly: "What is a large-scale electromagnetic pulse burst?"

"Simply put..." Qian Qian carefully said, "The electromagnetic pulses of the first two modes are excited after the warhead hits the target. The pulse has clear directionality and constriction, which can effectively avoid accidental damage to electric power other than the target. equipment; but the third mode is a large-scale explosive attack in an emergency."

"How big is the large area?" Rhodes asked again.

"Theoretically speaking, at least fifty yards." Qianqian looked sympathetically at Colonel Rhodes, who was destined to be locked in the battle armor for a longer period of time, and then pointedly pointed the finger at Tony; "Why don't you first Have a look at the manual?"

Tony pouted his neck and argued strongly: "I never need to read the manual, all the equipment I use is designed by myself; I can understand the design ideas of external electronic products at a glance."

"So you launched a large-scale electromagnetic pulse attack after taking a look at it?" Colonel Rhodes had a black face.

Make a heartbroken statement forward: "I must add and record the consequences of careless operation in the manual."

"It's best to record the name of the person who operated indiscriminately—Tony Stark, who thinks he is the smartest in the world!" Rhodes added.

"That's right, I suggest adding one more thing;" Tony said shamelessly, "After Tony Stark's operation, Colonel Rhodes became the first person in this century to receive the punishment of the 'Iron Maiden'; For the first time in a century!"

The three of them were arguing with each other, when they heard Pepper's voice from the stairs.

"Tony, what's the matter? Why are all the electrical appliances shut down, even my laptop..." The voices and high-heeled footsteps stopped abruptly at the door of the laboratory.

Through the skylight through the ventilation window, Pepper Potts saw three men with the same silly smile in the laboratory; the assistant to the president of Stark Industries almost immediately concluded that the culprit of the scrapping of electrical appliances was in this laboratory.

"What happened?" Pepper's voice cooled predictably.

Tony was the first to rush to answer: "It's nothing, something happened to the experiment. Uh... the current is overloaded."

Pepper was expressionless, but turned his gaze forward.

He pointed forward without hesitation: "Tony just made a mistake, he launched an electromagnetic pulse attack on the entire villa." The young playboy smiled innocently.

As for Colonel Rhodes, he breathed hard to get Pepper's attention: "Hey, Pepper; Tony locked me up here. Can I ask, do you know if there is a screwdriver or something in the villa? I have to put This armor is dismantled."

"O~~~K!" Pepper took a deep breath, "I'll look for it, you guys...wait."

These three men had made such a mess of the villa that even half of the work done on her laptop was scrapped; now, these culprits are still there, silly? !

The footsteps of "Tap Tat Tat" gradually faded away and disappeared at the height of the stairs.

"I have good news and bad news, which one are you going to hear first?" Looking forward at Pepper's back disappearing, he said with lingering fear.

Colonel Rhodes shook his head like a rattle: "No, I don't want to hear it. According to my experience, every time someone tells good news and bad news, it's actually bad news; so, I don't want to hear either. listen."

"No, no, no, I don't think it's right." Tony confronted him, "We have to be optimistic. What news could be worse than the current situation? I want to hear the bad news first, and it won't be too bad anyway; And if the good news is good enough, it can be uplifting."

"Yes." Xiangqian said he couldn't agree more, "The bad news is that Pepper must be very angry."

Tony's face froze imperceptibly, and he said calmly, "Of course, we've all seen it. So, what's the good news?"

"The good news is: there is a high probability that her anger will not be directed at me." Looking forward to the sealed Colonel Rhodes, "Of course, there is a high probability that it will not be directed at you."

"Oh...that's really good news." Rhodes was amnesty.

Therefore, Xiangqian and Rhodes focused on Tony Stark at the same time.

"Tony, you must be thrilled by the good news, right?"
