65 - Obadiah Stane [2]

"How..do you know it's me?" Tony Stark frowned.

At this time, he hadn't taken off Mark Three, and had also not revealed that he was Iron Man.

Derrick then said, "Everyone knows that you are Iron Man."

Tony Stark looked at Derrick in disbelief. In his opinion, he had done a good job of keeping his identity a secret.

For this reason, he thought about it carefully. At the moment, the only people who know about him were Colonel Rhodes, his assistant, Pepper Potts, Obadiah, the terrorists who kidnapped him before.

"...Well, I will then admit that there is a small problem with my identity's confidentiality."

Tony Stark generously admitted it but, he honestly doesn't care how many people know about his identity. It was rather troublesome for him to keep his identity a secret.

"But I'm curious, what is 'Iron Man' you're talking about?"

Perhaps because he felt that there was no threat from Iron Monger, Tony Stark felt very relaxed. He noticed that Derrick kept calling him Iron Man and for some reason, Tony felt that this name seemed to be particularly for him.

Derrick explained, "Shouldn't a superhero have a superhero name? I think the name 'Iron Man' is quite good for you. If you don't think so, what about Optimus Prime?"

"Hmm, no, Iron Man has the ring to it."

Tony interrupted Derrick's words, and told J.A.R.V.I.S, "J.A.R.V.I.S, register this name, I will use this from now on."

Derrick was startled, is this the advantages of being rich?

Seeing what Tony did, Derrick suddenly had a bold idea.

'If I register the titles of Hulk, Black widow, and Hawkeye in advance, when these superheroes become popular in the future, I can open different stores using these names, such as 'Hulk Tailors'. Won't I make a lot of money?'

Derrick thought about it, but reluctantly gave up on this tempting idea.

The main reason is that those superheroes might just smash his store after they know about it, and directly make an Avengers fight show in his store.

Seeing that Derrick was still videotaping, Tony said in a bad tone, "Although I like the name you just recommended to me, I want to remind you that your video has seriously violated my rights, and I can ask my lawyer to sue you for invasion of my privacy."

Derrick said disdainfully, "You're talking as if someone doesn't have a lawyer, one of my lawyers can beat your lawyers a hundred times, AND, he won't even break a sweat."

As long as Derrick sends Matt, literally beating a hundred people would not really be a problem.

Tony's eyes widened. For the first time in his life, he saw someone more arrogant than himself.

It was no exaggeration to say that his team of lawyers was definitely the best in America.

Just when Tony was about to refute, he saw Derrick suddenly turn his head and run away and not forgetting to point the camera in his direction while running.

Before Tony could react, he heard a heavy bang behind him.

Tony just turned his head and saw the huge figure of Iron Monger's armor and the mechanical arm that grabbed his leg.

Tony Stark: "..."

All of a sudden, Tony lost control of his whole body, and after he was grabbed by Iron Monger, he was thrown indiscriminately.

J.A.R.V.I.S kept reporting, "The left arm is severely damaged, most of the weapons are disabled..."

"Incendiary Bomb!!"

Tony roared as Mark III's legs shot out a lot of flames in an instant. The scorching heat burned the Iron Monger's armor, forcing it to loosen its grip. It was only then that Tony managed to break free.

J.A.R.V.I.S did not forget to remind, "Sir, there is only 2% of the spare energy left, which can barely maintain the arc reactor in your chest. If it is reduced to the lowest value, the arc reactor will immediately lose its function. After that, there is a 78% chance of the metal shards flowing into your heart..."

"I know about that!"

Tony knew how dangerous this situation was, and he might die at any time.

Being in this trouble, he had long forgotten the existence of Derrick.

Taking advantage of the smoke, Tony immediately contacted his most trusted assistant, "Potts, go to the center console and turn on all the circuits when I tell you."

Potts' tone was a little nervous, "What… what do you want to do?"

"I'm going to blow up this place, otherwise, there is no way to stop Obadiah."

After notifying Potts, Tony jumped on Iron Monger at the right time.

Under the analysis of J.A.R.V.I.S, he quickly found the gap in the Iron Monger's armor. He thrust his left arm through the gap and pulled out several important connecting wires, which directly disabled the detection system of the Iron Overlord's armor.

"Damn you, Tony!!"

Even the sound that had been mechanically changed could no longer conceal Obadiah's anger at the moment.

Losing his vision, he could only grab Tony using a wild guess. Obadiah's guess worked and he grabbed Tony, who was trying to dodge and threw him on the ground, and stepped on him with his thicc mechanical legs again, completely cutting off Tony's movements. (E/N: Please, I don't know what happened, Tony just got hit.)

What's worse was that the light of Mark 3 was gradually dimming, and the remaining power was no longer enough to maintain even the normal operation of Mark 3. The steel armor that was originally used to protect him had now become a prison instead.

"It's over now!"

Looking at the Iron Monger, Tony felt despair.

At the same time, he also thought of Derrick who was holding a sniper rifle. At this time, he should still be hiding somewhere on the roof.

Tony remembered that Derrick had a modified sniper bullet, which could explode with some decent explosive power. If he cooperated with him at the beginning, he would have a chance to escape the Iron Monger.

But now...

Tony gritted his teeth. The shell of the Iron Monger was too thick. Even with the explosive power, it was difficult to damage the Iron Monger's armor. There was almost no possibility of victory at all.

"Shhhhh..."

At this moment, the Iron Monger armor in front of him slowly opened, revealing Obadiah, who was sitting in the cockpit. Since the aiming system of the Iron Monger had failed, he could only aim with his own eyes.

However, he would love to do it!

Seeing Tony struggling under his feet, Obadiah smiled cruelly, and moved the mechanical arm to remove Tony's helmet.

"Tony, I want to witness your death with my own eyes, I want you to watch me kill you with the weapon you made yourself!"

After taking off the steel helmet, Obadiah expected to see Tony's face full of remorse or fear.

However, Obadiah noticed that Tony was looking at him strangely.

"Tony, is this your last failed attempt to escape!?"

Tony had a stiff expression as he said, "No, I just feel a little cold in my face, can you help me put the helmet back on?"

BOOM~~!

With a gunshot, Obadiah's cruel expression suddenly froze.

Blood dripped out slowly from a hole in his forehead.

Slow footsteps sounded as Tony's eyes met Derrick once again.

At the moment Derrick held the camera in his left hand and a pistol in his right hand as shook his head in a mocking way.

"Never use equipment that can help you fly without a helmet.

Tony, who was also not wearing a helmet, remained silent.
