6 Tony Stark

One month later, Liu Ruian, who returned to the MCU, can be said to have achieved a lot.

Although he was not able to completely obtain the most valuable technologies, like material transportation and the construction of Elysium Space Station, but after putting a lot of effort he was successfull in obtaining technologies for the SABRE brain defense system, artificial intelligence, exoskeleton armor, electromagnetic weapons, handheld shields, etc.

As for the Med-Bay3000 fully automatic medical platform, it is quite simple. As a citizen of the Elysium Space Station, he can naturally buy one with sufficient money.

What's more after becoming a prominent scientific researcher on the Elysium space station. It doesn't matter if he has enough money or not, as he can enjoy the benefits brought by this career by taking easy loans.

After bringing a bunch of items that he had broken into piles back to the underground crossing area, he immediately immersed in the research and manufacture of artificial intelligence and intelligent robots.

Even after traversing three worlds in a row and the help of NZT pills to improve his intelligence, he still has feeling of being powerless.

The lack of power here does not mean his own ability, it mean that he does not have sufficient manpower as it is fairly impossible that he alone can maximize the opportunities in every crossing.

Take this time of "Elysium" as an example. If he had enough hands, then this would not only be a good opportunity to obtain all the technological information, but he also would have conquered the entire Elysium Space Station at once.

In this way, the development of his own strength will also be increasing in exponential numbers, instead of having to maintain a low-key attitude for safety as it was now.

As for the problem of training people, it's not that Liu Ruian is not thinking.

It is just that this plan will take a long time. Moreover, human nature is also very unpredictable. Their loyalty and safety are far less compared to intelligent robots.

Although using intelligent robots is bound to have some shortcomings, but comparing to the loss of time and resources in cultivating a living person, the former can be regarded as a quite cheap.

As for Med-Bay3000 fully automatic medical platform, SABRE brain defense system, exoskeleton armor, electromagnetic weapons and mature energy power technology, he is not in a hurry to study them.

First of all, these technologies are actually quite advanced. Although he does not have information of a few, they can always be reverse engineered.

Furthermore, his time is really limited. Without enough manpower, there is no benefit in studying too many projects at the same time.

Half a month later

Liu Ruian finally assembled his own artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence in "Elysium" can not be considered as superior, not to mention that Jarvis, the steward of Iron Man, it is also inferior to the artificial intelligence in several other worlds.

But for now only using this artificial intelligence system, and replacing the original central database and computer system of Umbrella Bio-pharmaceutical Company, has already increased the work efficiency of the whole Umbrella company from top to bottom by numerous times.

And this is the result of Liu Ruian's intentionally controlling the functioning of this artificial intelligence system, to avoid this technology being easily detected.

And after shamelessly designating the name "Red Queen" to the artificial intelligence, Liu Rian, continued his work in development and manufacturing of intelligent robots so that he can have enough manpower to do things in the next crossing.

But unfortunately he has to stop his work.

It is not that he has become tired because of working non-stop.

The reason for this is very simple, because Liu Ruian found that he has no money.

Yes, there is no money.

Immediately after the acquisition of this small biopharmaceutical company, Liu Ruian has not only invested more than 8 million dollars that he made in the financial market, but he even borrowed a sum of money from the bank.

Now, don't say that it is just a small scale company how can all that money exhaust so quickly. Even if a sparow is small creature it still has to eat.

Purchase of various research equipment, manufacturing of equipments, highly qualified staff all require money.

The reason why he chose this company in the beginning is precisely because he thought that it will provide him with a good foundation.

Fortunately, the issue of funds in the beginning was soon resolved because of the listing of the two products "Dragon Blood" and "Succubus".

After the promotion by large-scale free trials has achieved shocking results, a large number of orders and opportunities for cooperation swarmed like a tide.

The opportunity of these orders and cooperation directly brought a huge profit to Umbrella.

Unfortunately, as the scale of biopharmaceutical company is increasing, it also burns a lot of money. Not to mention his different researchs.

What's more these technologies that came from different worlds can't be used directly.

For example, the artificial intelligence developed this time is nothing more than a software.

With the "overclocked" state of his brain, he can easily keep the entire source code of artificial intelligence and related programs in his mind.

The application of a software is also directly based on its hardware. If the modulating hardware is of poor quality naturally the performance of software will also be poor. If he wants to efficiently use it he also need a hardware with high specifications.

The price of building a top supercomputer can be calculated in hundreds of millions of dollars.

Hence, it is not an exaggeration to say that in these circumstances and under Umbrella's recent actions of spending money like running water, he is in urgent need of funds.

Even if many banks are optimistic about the potential of "Dragon Blood" and "Succubus", they will not be willing to continue to provide large and generous loans to the company. Even banks cannot withstand such a "lost money" method.

And as for getting some antiques, jewelry and other things from different worlds for money, this also came to Liu Ruian's mind.

But this method can only be used a limited amount of time, if he kept using this method he will inevitably attract attention.

Not to mention Umbrella Bio-pharmaceutical Company is not currently ready to comtend with the SHIELD on the bright side, HYDRA in the dark and various other troublesome superheros.

Besides he doesn't want to waste his precious crossing opportunities in making money.

It is a pity that if it was not for the requirement of high-tech equipments Liu Ruian does not have to worry about the funds at all.

"I believe that just taking out some technology can definitely bring me huge amounts."

Knowing that the time of next crossing is near and looking at the deficit in the books of his company, Liu Ruian can only bitterly smile and place his mind on a certain dude.

*****

"Wake up, Daddy is home."

Tony Stark, who has been busy outside for a day, says while snapping his fingers and sits on the chair in his villa's studio. Iron Man who has made countless girls crazy.

"Welcome home, sir, congratulations on the opening ceremony of the expo for the success of the Senate hearing."

"Let me say, it feels refreshing to see you on TV in your clothes, sir."

The artificial intelligence Jarvis who woke up from his dormant state says with no emotional fluctuations in his speech. With its cold humor and use of poisonous words in-between its speech make it even more humanized than many humans.

Then, a robot arm with a certain artificial intelligence accidentally knocked down the dark green beverage that was being stirred together in the blender.

"You! I swear I will remove you and make you a wine rack."

Recently in a bad mood, Tony bellowed at the robotic arm and refilled his dark green drink while asking:

"Jarvis, how much do I have to drink this stinky thing?"

"Eighty ounces can eliminate the symptoms of palladium poisoning."

Jarvis answered truthfully.

Faced with such an answer, it would be strange if Tony felt any better.

Not to mention eighty ounces of this extremely bad tasting drink, of which he has to drink more than two liters every day. Most people will not be able to bear a little amount of it.

After forcing himself to swallow a glass of this dark green liquid that can relieve the symptoms of palladium poisoning, Tony Stark took a portable detector and pressed his thumb on it, saying:

"Check the content of palladium."

The detector that took the blood sample soon gave a value of 24%. Such a result instantly made his face worse.

"Twenty-four percent of the toxicity detected in the blood, it seems that as long as you continue to use your armor the poison will spread faster and faster."

With Jarvis' analysis, the medical perspective analysis image of his chest appeared on the computer screen in front of him.

Faced with such analysis, Tony knew that he will not live longer than a few months.

Since his identity as Iron Man was revealed, Tony knows that it has become his biggest bargaining chip.

Once he lost it, and not to mention the SHIELD and the government which are after him, he will also be drowned by various dark forces.

"Sir, another piece of palladium energy board has been consumed."

Jarvis reminded after detecting the situation on his own owner.

"Oh my god, they can really be consumed quite fast."

Tony took out the latest version of the miniature Ark reactor from his chest and said with a sigh.

"I have simulated every known element, none can replace palladium, your time and choices are running out."

"Unfortunately, the device that made you alive is also killing you at the same time. Although this is not the first time I am saying this."

Jarvis still answered with due diligence.

After replacing the new palladium energy plate in his own ark reactor, he took a deep breath, taking off his T-shirt, Tony looked at the dark purple lines on his chest through the computer screen.

Just then, Jarvis suddenly said:

"Sir, I just received an email, I suggest you better take a look at it now."
