Chapter 1030: Awkward
In the coming days, Lin Rui stayed with Tony and told him all about his recent journey. However, he did not reveal everything and kept some information to himself, including the fact that he was not traveling alone.
Lin Rui couldn’t risk exposing Bucky to Tony, especially given the special relationship between Bucky and Tony.
As Lin Rui shared his travel experiences with Tony, the latter asked JARVIS to retrieve the Antman suit that Lin Rui had left in the northern city where he was previously staying.
Tony had been studying the suit and the Pym Particle technology that powered it but had not yet been able to crack its secrets. This made him realize that Pym’s technology was indeed impressive and quite different from the flashy Iron Man suits.
“These little things are what you got from that Pym tech, right?” Tony asked Lin Rui as he held the tiny Antman suit in his hand, referring to the recent Antman incident that had made the news.
“Yeah, you probably heard about what happened with Pym tech. But what I just told you is more important. And as for the giant man, that’s also thanks to this suit,” Lin Rui replied, nodding at the suit in Tony’s hand.
“I do know about that. You left after causing a mess over there and left SHIELD to clean it up. I didn’t know at first if you had contacted Rogers or if he found out on his own. You got rid of that Darren Cross guy, slapped around the old-timers, and made SHIELD deal with the aftermath. But I have to say… you did it all very nicely!” Tony said, pressing something on the suit in his hand as he spoke. He chuckled as he praised Lin Rui’s actions.
As Tony laughed, the Antman suit in his hand suddenly enlarged. He had figured out the basic operations of the suit thanks to the information Lin Rui had provided him.
“Haha, those things should have been done by SHIELD in the first place. I just gave them a nudge in the right direction,” Lin Rui said, feeling a little embarra.s.sed as he touched his nose and spoke.
“Do you know how much trouble you caused SHIELD by pa.s.sing by like this? Rogers sent Falcon and Coulson to solve the problem quickly. At first, those old guys weren’t grateful, but after Falcon nearly demolished their luxury villas, they became obedient. They not only promised not to cause trouble in the future but also surrendered their personal weapons and the scientific research results they had been conducting secretly for years.” Thinking about the recent incident that happened at SHIELD, Tony couldn’t help but laugh.
Not long after Lin Rui left, Falcon and Coulson arrived in the city. They first went to Pym Tech to get some information. Although Professor Pym had a grudge against SHIELD, he was only against the older generation of those guys.
While Falcon and Coulson were investigating, Professor Pym was quite cooperative since they were going to deal with his enemies. However, he didn’t reveal the existence of the Ant-Man suit and Pym Particles. So, currently, only Pym Tech and Tony had the Ant-Man suit and Pym Particles.
Although Professor Pym was cooperative, the old SHIELD guys who were in the same generation as him were not. They initially made things difficult when Falcon and Coulson came to investigate.
During the most intense conflict, those big shots even used their personal weapons. However, after Falcon intervened, those weapons were quickly neutralized.
After the weapons were dealt with, those big shots had no choice but to cooperate. Now, if they choose to cooperate, they can enjoy their remaining years peacefully.
Otherwise, they will have to spend their remaining days under SHIELD’s watch. As for the missing Darren Cross, no one knows where he is.
Now that everything has been resolved, n.o.body cares about his whereabouts. “Really? Falcon is capable of doing that!” Upon hearing Tony’s words, Lin Rui also laughed. He could imagine how angry Falcon must have been before taking action.
By the way, speaking of Falcon, after the Dark Elf invasion, SHIELD’s strength has also been rapidly increasing. Falcon’s equipment has been upgraded a lot, and now his wing speed is much faster, with some additional functions as well,” Tony said, and then his eyes flickered as he suddenly remembered something.
“Is that so? That’s normal. If there were no upgrades, that would be abnormal,” Lin Rui replied, unfazed by Tony’s words.
The Dark Elf invasion was already a major event, and the forces that partic.i.p.ated in this event would undoubtedly experience an upgrade in their strength and technology after defeating the Dark Elves.
It was like the loot dropped after defeating a boss in a game. For Earth, continuously resolving various events was the key to rapid growth.
“It seems like you’re not surprised at all. Do you know what upgrades I have here?” Tony couldn’t help asking when he saw Lin Rui’s expression and heard his nonchalant words.
“Upgrades here? Are you saying that you’ve successfully developed the nanotech suit?!” Lin Rui’s eyes lit up at Tony’s question.
In Lin Rui’s memory, the personal Iron Man movie plot had ended with Extremis. There were no significant changes in the Iron Man suit’s upgrades in the other Marvel movies, except for the direct upgrade to the nanotech suit.
The nanotech suit was made entirely of nanomaterials and could continue to fight as long as the nanomaterials were not exhausted. Moreover, the nanotech suit’s armament speed and carrying capacity were much faster than the current Iron Man suit.
If Tony had really developed the nanotech suit, Lin Rui would not be able to resist wearing a suit himself. The nanotech suit was already beyond the traditional meaning of armor and more like a piece of comprehensive tactical equipment.
“Nano…” Tony’s face froze and he repeated the word “nanotech” without continuing.
As a highly intelligent technology talent, Tony had always been researching nanomaterials and had also been thinking about applying nanotechnology to his suit. However, at this stage, nanotechnology was not yet mature enough to be applied to his suit.
