Chapter: 88

Stark Mansion.

"Nice to see you again, Tony, Mark." Nick Fury visited the place once more.

However, unlike the last time when he sneaked in under the cover of darkness, Fury had vowed since that day that he would only enter this place openly in broad daylight. He still vividly remembered the experience of being tied up by Mark.

"Director, once you're done with your conversation with Dad, do you have time to talk about our deal? I've already prepared everything." Mark interlocked his hands, rubbing his palms together, with a glimmer of money in his eyes.

Fury: "No problem. I think it's fine to postpone other matters compared to your deal."

"In that case, you two can talk first. I'll take the items to the laboratory in the underground garage." Mark turned around and left, while countless micro magnetic-axis robots under his control began to move.

Fury was highly impressed by the talent and technology Mark displayed. If Tony's inventions made him feel like a dreamer, then Mark was more like a practical doer. For agents like them, who relied heavily on their intellect, nothing was more enticing than Mark's inventions.

But getting back on track, they needed to address Tony's issue first. "Tony, do you know that thing on your chest was made based on unfinished technology?"

"I already know that. I found some clues in the research manuscripts left by Howard. He must have discovered an efficient, clean, and non-toxic new element back then. However, due to technological limitations at the time, he couldn't complete the preparation of the new element, so he used palladium as a substitute.

I miniaturized this unfinished technology and greatly improved its operational efficiency, then applied it to myself, but it ultimately put me in a predicament. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the molecular structure of this new element in his manuscripts."

"That's right. Your father mentioned that the Arc Reactor was just a stepping stone to greater technology. He was preparing to launch an energy competition that would leave all competitors in the dust. He had stumbled upon a clue to a superpower source, and in front of it, a nuclear reactor would be like a AAA battery."

"I think Anton Vanko was also involved in this project, right?"

"Yes, Anton Vanko believed it would bring him enormous wealth. When your father found out, he expelled him from the country. When the Soviets realized he was useless, they exiled him to Siberia, where he lived a life of alcoholism and bitterness for 20 years.

It wasn't a conducive environment for a child to grow up in. The one you encountered in Monaco was his son."

"So, how can this superpower source be completed?"

"Your father said that to accomplish this plan, he could only rely on your intelligence and resources."

"That's impossible." Tony firmly denied, "My father never believed in me. He was cold, calculating, and never once said he loved me or liked me. It's hard for me to believe he would say I can complete his great plan."

"It's not like that." Fury's response was equally firm.

"Is that so? It seems you understand my father even more than me." Tony expressed his confusion.

"In fact, it's true. He was one of the founding members of S.H.I.E.L.D." With that said, Fury stood up, and his agents brought a box in front of Tony.

"What!? Wait, what is this?"

"This is what your father left for you. Go unravel it. Coulson and Natasha will be here watching you until you solve the puzzle and complete the superpower source. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving the mansion.

I'm busy today, so I have to go talk to Mark about our deal."

...

As Fury left Tony and arrived at the laboratory's glass door, he was stunned by the sight before him.

Countless micro magnetic-axis robots neatly arranged items in the laboratory, while Mark commanded everything from a high position.

"This truly amazes me. Is this technology also on our trade agenda today?" Fury walked in and asked Mark.

"If you want it, of course. But this thing is not something an ordinary person can play with. To control so many micro robots, coordinate their cooperation, and multitask with them, you need a clever brain." Mark explained to Fury.

"It seems I'll need to bring in a few smart subordinates to try it out. Show me the other inventions you've prepared first. I'm very excited about your demonstration."

"Haha, then let's start with the familiar nutrient hibernation pod. I already told Agent Romanoff about its general function, but there is crucial information you probably don't know yet.

The nutrient hibernation pod uses high-speed electron nuclear power to decompose and recombine the injected nutrient solution, creating a special substance that can repair the human body and provide necessary nutrition and energy.

And this nutrient solution is derived from the modified Super Soldier Serum I obtained from our previous trade."

"What!?" Nick Fury widened his remaining eye in astonishment, staring directly at Mark. "Are you saying you have successfully replicated Dr. Erskine's Super Soldier Serum formula?"

"That's right. The difficulty of reproducing this formula isn't high, considering the amount of information Dr. Erskine left behind. By reverse-engineering, it took me only two days to figure it out."

Upon hearing this, Fury was struck like lightning. This was mind-boggling. Even the Hulk could go crazy.

It took our S.H.I.E.L.D. and even the military decades without success, and we accidentally created a Hulk in the process. And here you are, claiming it wasn't too difficult and finishing it in just two days!
