In American comics, drawing cards reveals wave-particle duality

After Tony finally regained consciousness, he looked around with hazy eyes and found himself lying in a dark and damp cave, surrounded by various discarded electronic devices.

"Uh...ahem."

The severe chest pain and the strong foreign body sensation in his nose made him groan.

He casually grabbed and slowly pulled out the breathing tube that was inserted deep into his nasal cavity. Then he struggled with his hands and accidentally knocked over the special water cup on the table next to him.

"woke up?"

"I advise you not to do this."

A strange voice came, and Tony turned his head reluctantly. The strange middle-aged man was shaving in front of a simple and stained lens.

"I... where is this?"

"What's this?"

Tony turned around and was horrified to find a huge battery next to him with wires connected to his chest.

Seeing this, Tony suddenly had an extremely uneasy premonition in his heart. He coughed while pulling off the bandages tied around his body. Then the scene in front of him almost made his heart beat slower.

It was a cylindrical mechanical iron product, and the circuit on it was connected to the battery next to it.

"what did you do to me?"

"It's not what I did, what I did was save your life."

A middle-aged man in academic attire was cooking something in an iron pot while speaking nonchalantly.

"I've tried my best to remove a lot of the shrapnel, but there's still a lot left. And they're all heading for your septum... Want to see it? I left a souvenir, take a look."

The man picked up a glass bottle and shook it. The copper pieces inside collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

"I've seen quite a few of these injuries in my village. I call them dying zombies because it takes about a week for the shrapnel to enter the vital organs..."

"what is this?"

"It's an electromagnet, connected to the car battery, and it's stopping the shrapnel from entering your heart."

Tony's eyes widened when he heard this and he looked at his chest in disbelief.

He, Tony Stark, one of the richest men in the world, is now a prisoner, his life dependent on a simple device.

So, Tony, who was in a very bad mood, silently zipped up the clothes he had just taken out, looked around, and found an infrared camera on the wall in front of him.

"Yeah, smile."

The man teased when he saw Tony had discovered the camera.

"We met once, actually, at a tech conference in Bern."

"I do not remember……"

"Hoho... Of course, if I were this drunk, I wouldn't even be able to stand up straight, let alone give a speech about integrated circuits."

"Where are we?"

"Boom!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Get up now and do it my way."

"Put your head in your hands."

The man quickly pulled Tony up and gave him instructions.

Soon, several heavily armed terrorists came in shouting in bird language, their eyes falling coldly on Tony and the man.

"That's my gun, how did they get it?"

Holding his head, Tony was the first to notice something was wrong.

But the man did not respond to him. Instead, the leader of the group started talking in bird language to Tony, leaving him confused.

Fortunately, the man next to him understood the leader's bird language and translated it.

"He said he was honored to welcome Tony Stark, the most famous mass murderer in American history, the leader of the Ten Rings... He wanted you to build him a missile, the Jericho Strategic Missile that you showed him."

"I reject."

Tony regretted his words after he said them. Then, the angry militants gave him a profound experience of water torture, which left Tony with a trauma and he never wanted to swim again in his life...

Soon, the "compromised" Tony was brought to the weapons base here. He was speechless to find that almost all the weapons here were the weapons he had sold.

"Here are all the raw materials needed to build the Jericho missile. He wants you to make a list of the materials and start working on it immediately... Once you're done, he'll let you go."

Ethan, the man whose name Tony finally learned, translated.

"No... they won't."

Tony smirked and shook the leader's hand, whispering to Ethan beside him.

"Yes."

Ethan responded without hesitation.

At night, in the cave where they used to live.

Tony was wearing a coat and staring at the fire in front of him.

The weapons he made were supposed to be used by the military to protect innocent people, but he didn't expect them to fall into the hands of these terrorists, which made him feel sick.

From this evening till now, there have been obvious vibrations and collisions coming from the outside world... Tony now has only his hope to rely on his good friend Rhodes, who is an officer.

"Don't wait, this cave system is too complicated, your friend may not be able to find this place."

Ethan looked at Tony who was doing nothing and could naturally guess what he was thinking.

"See what happened today... That's your legacy, Stark."

"Your life's work has fallen into the hands of those murderers. Do you want to die like this?"

"Is this the final defiance of the great Tony Stark?"

Tony leaned against the wet stone wall in silence and closed his eyes.

He knew that even the most elite search and rescue team of the US military would find it difficult to find him in this unfamiliar area, so he had to rely on himself.

"I have to find a way to escape." Tony muttered to himself.

Ethan breathed a sigh of relief when Tony nodded.

He advised Tony not entirely out of kindness, and he also had a selfish desire to escape with him.

After all...having help is different from fighting alone.

"Very well... First, you have to stay alive."

Ethan said.

"And to survive, you have to do what they ask...at least for now. We still have a week."

Tony opened his eyes, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

"One week is enough."

Next, Tony and Ethan began to actively cooperate with the demands of the terrorists from the Ten Rings Gang.

"I need welding tools, both acetylene and propane are fine, as well as a welding tool table, a helmet, goggles, and I also need a melting cup and two sets of precision tools..."

In order to cooperate with the "creation", Tony unscrupulously made demands on raw materials to these terrorists. Although the demands were many, the terrorists felt they were extremely reasonable.

It's normal for a genius inventor to need these materials... What's more, they have cameras watching them all the time, so there's no chance of any accidents happening.

Tony and Ethan were naturally aware of the real-time surveillance elements, so they chose to stagger the time, showing the "production" to the surveillance during the surveillance time, while secretly carrying out the "escape plan" at other times.

First, Tony extracted 0.6 grams of palladium from twelve missiles, intending to make a device to "extend" life.

at the same time.

SHIELD headquarters in New York, USA.

Nick Fury sat in his office, his dark face looking even darker after learning about Tony's accident.

He had already sent a professional search and rescue team to Afghanistan for rescue, but the terrain was too complicated. The team worked for three days without any results, and he was so angry that he almost smashed the vase on the table.

There is no way, SHIELD is seriously short of staff now... Director Pierce took Rumlow and Sitwell away, and then fought to the death with Hydra and the Hand.

So, the entire burden of SHIELD was suddenly transferred to him.

Moreover, the bureau is seriously understaffed right now...

He sent Natasha to India to find Dr. Banner, and Hawkeye was also at the border to kill the fleeing remnants... Only Coulson was left?

Forget it. He has been busier than me, the deputy director, recently. He has used three bottles of hair growth product. His girlfriend who plays the cello almost broke up with him because of this.

It would be inhumane to catch him and pull him out...

So, he had no choice but to find Jonathan and ask him to go to Afghanistan to try his luck. Of course... he paid for all the expenses himself.

It's nothing... As soon as Pierce comes back and finds out that his son has to pay for the job, he will definitely make things difficult for him.

After being busy, Jonathan finally had some free time, so he accepted Black Braised Egg's request without much thought.

Although the original book did not mention Tony's specific location, he might not be able to find it even if he went there...but this was a funded trip, so it would be a waste not to go.

Moreover, Jonathan had received a message from Dr. Stern before that:

Bruce Banner is now living in seclusion in India not far from the Afghan border, and he is always thinking of coming back to look for Dr. Stern's experiments.

This time, Jonathan could just take a look at the traces of the green fat man and look for a chance to get some benefits.
