Chapter 25: Second Generation Ark Reactor

Los Angeles, Marbury Beach.

After Tony Stark returned, he only appeared in front of reporters and announced that Stark Industries would no longer manufacture weapons.

He hid in the laboratory by himself, and saw no one except Pepper who came to check in every day.

He hid and developed his own armor.

The drawings designed in Afghanistan have been brought back and entered into the computer.

At this moment, in front of Tony, there is a three-dimensional projection, which is exactly what he built in the cave using existing resources.

"Jarvis, remove the shell, keep the core technology unchanged, and repackage it with a newly designed shell."

"Yes, sir!"

As Jarvis's voice sounded, the three-dimensional projection in front of Tony began to rotate.

The outer armor parts scattered and disappeared.

Then more images of armor components appeared out of thin air.

Around the Ark Reactor in the middle, they were installed one by one in an orderly manner.

The modeling of MARK2 has been initially completed.

"How's it going, Jarvis?"

Tony stretched out his hand and turned the projection, looking at it carefully from front to back and left to right.

"I have to say, sir, your work is ahead of its time!"

"I'm always ahead of my time, Jarvis, help me place the order, I need them to send the first batch of materials as soon as possible."

The initial appearance of the battle armor has been finalized.

Tony Stark picked up another launcher on the table.

In his vision, this launcher can be used as a power system and a laser cannon as a conventional weapon.

"It seems that I have to replace the reactor immediately. The current speed is too low and cannot keep up with the consumption of the armor."

After lowering his head and muttering something, Tony took a brand new Ark reactor on the table.

…

"Good afternoon, Mr. Qin! Mr. Stark is in the laboratory. I will inform him immediately that you are here!"

Tony originally gave Qin Xiao permission to enter the house, but it did not include the underground laboratory.

It turned out that only Pepper and Rhodes had the password and permission to enter from Jarvis.

But now, there is one more.

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Stark wants you to go down directly. The access to the basement will be opened to you later. The password for the door is 106!" (This password is true. I specifically watched the part where Pepper entered the basement in Iron Man 1.)

When Qin Xiao entered the basement, he happened to see Pepper putting his hand into Tony Stark's chest.

And a wet copper wire was pulled out from inside.

I have to say, it still looks quite disgusting and terrifying.

There is a hole in the chest, and others stick their fingers in.

"Oh shit, what do I see? Is this a new pose for you two?"

"Tony, have you entered women's bodies too much before, and now it's a woman entering your body?"

"Hey!!! Qin, I don't think you are that glib!"

Pepper originally had a frightened look on his face when he did this, but after Qin Xiao teased him like that, he immediately recovered.

"That's because you don't know him well enough, Pepper. You will know in the future. Compared with him, I am as honest as a cow on your uncle's farm!"

Tony asked Pepper to insert the wire of the new reactor base into his chest, and then walked towards Qin Xiao.

"Tony, do you plan to stay like this? I mean, you don't plan to find a doctor to treat yourself thoroughly and take out the shrapnel or something."

Qin Xiao pointed at Tony's chest.

"To be honest, the night light on your chest is actually pretty cool, but it's such a big thing stuffed into your body."

When talking about the reactor on his chest, Tony became unusually serious.

"I won't take it out anymore. This thing saved me. I'm not just talking about my life. It determines what kind of person I should be in the future. I have to keep it to remind myself."

"Tony, what to do with this old one?"

Little Pepper is still Tony's personal assistant. When she saw Qin Xiao coming to see Tony, she was preparing the basement and asked Tony what to do with the old reactor.

"Destroy it, burn it, you know I have many characteristics, but nostalgia is definitely not included!"

"OK!"

Pepper went upstairs with the reactor.

Qin Xiao knew that she would seal the old one in a transparent cover and give it to Tony as a gift.

And when Obadiah snatched the reactor from Tony's chest, it was this old one that saved Tony's life at the critical moment.

But now that there is another Qin Xiao in the world, this bridge should be avoided.

What's more, Qin Xiao came here this time to solve this matter.

"Hey, Tony, don't you have anything to ask me? About Afghanistan!"

Seeing Pepper go upstairs, Qin Xiao opened his mouth first and said.

Even if we don't consider the system and mission issues, the two parties have known each other for such a long time.

From a personal perspective, the two parties have indeed become friends.

Apart from the secrets of the system and time travel, Qin Xiao had no intention of hiding anything from Tony, which would create some distance between the two.

"A man came to see me two days ago. He comes from an intelligence department with a long and stinky name. What's his name? Anyway, he is an agent with a very impressive hairline."

Tony gestured to his forehead and described the appearance of the visitor.

"He told me everything about you, the death of your parents, how you got your serum, how you met that sexy agent chick, etc."

"You also said that you joined them to save me, but I won't thank you because you lied to me. Your energy comes from the super soldier serum, not from Chinese Kung Fu. Hell, I even paid you More than a month's salary."

Tony took out two bottles of beer from the refrigerator and handed one to Qin Xiao.

Tony Stark, don't expect to hear a thank you from him easily.

But Qin Xiao knew that although he was talking about deceiving him, his eyes were full of gratitude.

Otherwise, why did he even give himself the password to the basement today?

"Okay, actually you didn't lose. You even won millions of dollars in the casino, all because of me. Is that what the agent with the touching hairline told you?"

Qin Xiao said that the good old Agent Coulson appeared in his mind.

"Um?"

Tony asked doubtfully as he took a sip of beer.

"Is there something else you, bastard, are deceiving me about?"

"That's not true. It seems that he definitely didn't tell you clearly how I found the secret cave that the US military couldn't find for more than a month."

"oh?"

What did Tony seem to think of?

He raised his head slightly to signal Qin Xiao to continue.
