Chapter 239 Iron Man's Rebellious Armor
In the Gem Cave, Richard had just recorded a newly mature Gem Beetle. The number of mutations in this batch of Gem Beetles had once again reached a new high.

Richard harvested a bunch of magic gems, but among them, there was no legendary gem that Richard wanted. He could only hope that the next experiment would be successful.

In order to speed up time, Richard used time acceleration magic on some of the gem beetles in the gem cave to make them grow faster.

After checking the gem beetle, Richard went to check the progress of the floating city. The hardening enchantment of the floating city was only one-third complete. It was not an easy task to complete the hardening enchantment of a city with tens of thousands of people.

If it were in the Motera world, this alone would cost more than a billion gold nars. The next step would be laying energy pipelines, rune arrays, rune stones, energy nodes, etc., all of which would cost money.

The energy circulation system, the ecosphere system, and the element furnace matrix system all require a lot of money. It took Richard two hundred years to complete the construction of the floating city.

Back at the Mage Tower, Richard uploaded the optimized energy circuit and rune array to Tower Spirit Emerald No. 1. He planned to start building these things after completing the foundation hardening enchantment.

The same plan is adopted for modular and regional construction.

Richard was sitting on the balcony of his study, leaning on a rocking chair and reading a book leisurely. At this moment, the tower spirit suddenly sent a message: "Master, a steel suit that looks like Iron Man's was found in the sky."

"Is Tony experimenting with a new battle suit again?" Richard became interested and asked the Mystic Eye to broadcast the real-time signal in.

Soon Richard spotted Iron Man who was test flying in the sky, but Iron Man now did not have his previous cool and pretentious demeanor, and was instead swaying in the sky.

Each part of his steel armor had its own ideas. Although he could barely fly, it was shaky and uncoordinated.

"Is this the anti-Tony armor?" When Richard saw this armor, he instantly remembered something.

At this moment, one of the armor parts suddenly fell off, and the flying state that was barely maintaining balance was immediately broken, and Tony fell directly from a high altitude.

"Ta Ling, activate the anti-gravity array and catch him."

"It's the master!"

The magic circle was activated instantly, and Tony, who was falling, suddenly felt that his falling speed slowed down. The next second, his whole body was lifted up by a force.

"call!"

"The power of magic is amazing." Tony breathed a sigh of relief after being rescued, and soon he landed safely on the ground.

After being rescued by Richard, Tony notified Pepper and asked her to send someone to pick him up, and then came to the reception room of the floating tower.

"Is this your new armor?" Richard said with a smile.

He really couldn't understand. Since Tony was able to make the Iron Man suit, why didn't he use Jarvis to control it remotely? Instead, he had to wear it and fight personally in every battle. It wasn't that Richard looked down on him, but Tony's fighting skills were not ordinary.

It would be better to win by quantity, produce dozens or hundreds of machines, and then remotely control them to carry out group fights. Since they are all rich, they naturally want to use money to attack others.

Now he insisted on wearing the armor and attacking himself, so the only reason for doing so was to show off. This answer is in line with Tony's style of being a playboy who loves to show off.

"Yes, this is my latest improved Mark 42 armor. I gave it a name, Prodigal Son. What do you think of it? Isn't it handsome?" Iron Man Tony said proudly.

"Free fall from a high altitude is more cool. Are you doing a physics experiment today to verify the maximum acceleration of humans falling from a high altitude?" Richard said bluntly.

"It was just an accident." Tony said unconvinced.

"I have divided the battle armor into more than a dozen parts this time, so they can be assembled separately. As long as I issue a command, these armor parts will fly directly to my body and assemble quickly."

Seeing that Richard was indifferent to his new invention, Tony became angry and immediately wanted to demonstrate it on the spot.

He ordered the suit of iron armor to be taken off, then came to the other side, signaled to Richard, and turned on the armor wearing mode. In an instant, the scattered parts flew up and flew to Tony in the order of assembly.

"Bang bang bang."

Tony was hit directly in the crotch by the armor part that rushed over, and Richard felt the pain just watching from the side.

"Tony, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Tony Stark gasped in pain. But he gritted his teeth and said, "It doesn't hurt."

"Tony, I think you should be responsible for Pepper's happiness and improve your armor."

Before Richard could finish his words, the armor behind him flew over instantly and knocked him and his armor away.

"Okay, I think you should change the name of this armor. He can't be called the Prodigal Son, he should be called the Rebellious Son!" Richard used the levitation technique to prevent Iron Man Tony from breaking his table.

"Although there were some twists and turns, I still managed to complete the fitting successfully," Tony said with a smile.

"Really?" Richard pointed behind him, and the next second, the leg armor part of the culprit who caused Tony to fall from a high altitude flew over instantly, and before Tony could react, he was knocked away in an instant.

This time, without Richard's levitation skill, Tony fell flat on his face, and the armor on his body was broken into pieces again.

"Okay, I admit that this suit of armor is not perfect yet, but I believe that I can improve it soon." Tony, lying on the ground, still insisted.

Soon, Pepper arrived with her bodyguards.

"Sir Richard, thank you for saving Tony." Pepper thanked.

"You're welcome. It's just a piece of cake." Richard said with a smile.

"Richard, although the Prodigal armor is not yet perfect, I have already made dozens of other armors. They are definitely more practical than your Iron Warrior. Do you want to come and see them?" Tony was unwilling to see his own armor fail, especially when he saw Richard's Guardian Golem.

So he invited him and wanted to show him his other armor.

"Okay." Richard thought about it and agreed, then took the Aphrodites with him.

These Amazon warriors have been out of touch with society for a long time. Richard wants to let them get in touch with modern society to increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons.

When Tony saw those Amazon female warriors, his eyes suddenly changed when he looked at Richard. Their aesthetic taste was exactly the same as his. He had a group of supermodels at home.

"They are not supermodels, but Amazon warriors." Richard said. "I understand, I understand, it's COS, I understand." Tony gave him an I understand look, he used to play this game often, but his health has been bad recently.

Although it was a family dinner, Xiao La Jiao still prepared a very sumptuous meal.

After a simple meal, Tony couldn't wait to drag Richard to his laboratory. At this time, dozens of Iron Man suits were already placed on the walls of the laboratory.

Each of these iron suits has a focus, and each is equipped with different weapons. Richard also found anti-magic armor and anti-Hulk armor. However, the effect is hard to describe.

"Are these all your armor?" Aphrodite said in surprise as she looked at dozens of sets of armor.

"Of course." Tony said proudly.

"it's beautiful."

"But they won't be like the armor just now." Aphrodite said with a smile.

"Impossible, that was just an accident!" Tony denied it directly.

"Well, it's a surprise." Aphrodite shrugged, and then said something heartbreaking, "Among so many types of armor, is there any that can compare to the Guardian Golem?"

"This guardian golem is magic, and what I have here is technology. The two are completely different. Besides, there has been no battle between the two sides, and there is a lack of experimental data." Tony was talking to him with an embarrassed expression.

After seeing Richard's half-smile next to him, Tony had to admit: "Well, the current Iron Man suit is still no match for the Guardian Iron Warrior!"

"But I will definitely surpass him," Tony emphasized.

"I believe this!" Richard nodded. He knew that Tony had obtained the Chitauri and alien technology, and now he had achieved results. As long as he was given time, when his nanoparticle armor came out, its combat power would indeed surpass that of the Guardian Golem.

"Look, even Richard admitted it." Tony was very happy.

"I will definitely succeed!"

Richard shook his head. Tony didn't know yet that his golem had been updated to an Arcane Guardian. One golem of this kind could easily kill more than a dozen Guardian Golems.

"But I think you'd better modify the activation mode of your armor." Richard said.

"You are now using brainwaves to activate the armor, which seems very convenient. But what if you activate the armor in your dream while you are sleeping?"

Richard's words made Tony Stark immediately realize the danger. Brainwave activation is convenient, but this situation does happen. Once he activates it in a dream, Pepper will definitely be injured in the way the Prodigal Son armor is worn.

"Thank you Richard." Tony realized the danger and immediately went to the workbench to upgrade the chip. He set a restriction for activating the armor, that is, the armor must be activated when he is awake.

"Tony, why don't you use Jarvis to remotely control the Iron Man suit instead of wearing it yourself? As a billionaire, you can do this."

"Would that still make him Iron Man?" Tony refused.

"Okay." Richard shrugged.

Richard knew that Tony was suffering from a disease similar to post-war syndrome. He felt very uneasy without his armor, just like some veterans who would sleep with their guns hugged even after retirement.

Nick Fury drove away from the base, but he was still thinking about what happened not long ago. As the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., he was restricted in his authority, which was obviously very abnormal. Combined with his previous investigation, he was completely sure that there was a hidden power in S.H.I.E.L.D.

As a patient with advanced paranoia, Nick Fury can't trust many people, so he plans to let Natasha and Captain America investigate.

The bustling streets are bustling with people. The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the earth, covering the city with a layer of golden light. The clouds in the sky are also dyed golden red by the sunset, which looks very beautiful.

Many people, attracted by the beautiful scenery, walked on the streets and in the parks. The atmosphere seemed very leisurely. After experiencing the Battle of New York, the citizens finally recovered from the war.

Nick is driving his specially modified car to the secret base. His car looks unremarkable on the surface, but its interior is completely different. Its super power system, fully intelligent AI control, and powerful armor protection system make its defense performance surpass that of armored vehicles.

The vehicle is also equipped with a retractable Vulcan cannon and a grenade launcher, and even has the ability to fly with a turbocharged engine, and oh, there's also an air conditioning system.

This car can be said to be the equipment that an agent dreams of. Although he rarely goes out on field missions anymore, he still got one for himself as a commemoration of his previous field career.

"Start encrypted communication and connect me to Hill." After leaving S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick felt something was wrong.

The signal was connected soon.

"I'm Hill. Chief, do you have any instructions?" A woman's head appeared on the virtual screen on the car's windshield. She was one of his confidants.

"I think the situation is not good. They seem to have noticed it. Now you should come back immediately and prepare to launch the plan in advance!" Nick Fury said.

"Understood! I will come back as quickly as possible." Level 9 Agent Hill agreed immediately.

After the call, Nick Fury brought up the Insight Project, which was partly inspired by Richard. Richard's space-based satellite network weapons scared many people at the time, so SHIELD also planned to prepare its own space-based weapons.

They are based on the sky carrier and adopt a large amount of Chitauri alien technology. The bottom carries ultra-long-range and precise positioning weapons, which can launch fatal air-to-ground strikes on Hydra around the world through satellite locking.

After taking off, the three sky carriers will enter the geosynchronous orbit and then stay in the geosynchronous orbit for a long time.

After investigation, Nick Fury discovered that there were already many Hydra people in S.H.I.E.L.D., and after starting the investigation from the murder of Iron Man's parents, he found a lot of suspicious points.

Combined with what he discovered later, he came to a surprising conclusion, that is, Hydra was not destroyed, but hidden. And there are a large number of Hydra lurkers within them.

"what's the situation?"

When the car reached a traffic light, Nick Fury suddenly found a police car next to him, and the police inside were staring at him with a bad look.

What's going on? Can black people drive luxury cars? When will black people really stand up in this society?

Nick Fury asked unhappily, "Are you going to check my ID?"

It's really the opposite of what happened. Two small policemen dared to check the director of SHIELD's car. Believe it or not, I can fire you with just one sentence?
