CHAPTER 604 WORRY
Just when Lin Rui and the others were raiding Mandarin’s hideout, Tony and the others were still in New York tackling the remaining Extremis fighters. And, in order to give the world’s general public the greatest confidence, Tony broadcasted all his Iron Man battles this time.
Among them, Tony’s appearance in front of the White House was a close-up. Tony was sending a message that he is still alive and he is still capable of protecting them.
Boom!
A laser shot broke the mutated arm of an Extremis Fighter who was still unwilling to surrender, and Tony was about to “take over” the White House. Because the White House was also prepared for these Extremis Fighters, only one of their Extremis bombs exploded, causing minimal damage that remained under control.
And after Tony led the Iron Man army arrived, he has nonchalantly taken over the battlefield.
Under the blows of the overwhelming Iron Man, these Extremis Fighters were soon left with only three who were still resisting. And Tony also recruited an Extremis Fighter to his side here, after he surrendered, Tony has quietly arranged an Iron Man to take him out of the battlefield.
Although Tony is willing to share the secrets of Extremis with Rogers, but it does not mean that he is willing to share them with Mr. President and the Army. After all, the American side was not something Tony trusted and supported either.
“Sir, another Extremis Fighter has expressed his willingness to surrender.” Just when Tony was about to kill the fleeing guy in front of him, JARVIS’s voice came over.
“Well, then tell him to get rid of his transform state, and then take him back.” Tony was quite happy that another Extremis Fighter was willing to surrender.
“Then, the remaining two seem to be fanatics, so don’t waste time and end it quickly. I have created a big enough scene this time. I also want to give Mr. President some of my time.” After the Extremis Fighter over there surrendered, there were only two Extremis Fighters left in the White House who were still fleeing, and Tony finally decided their outcome.
“Yes, Sir.” JARVIS faintly agreed upon hearing Tony’s words.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
During the fighting in the White House, Mr. President was in the underground safe house. Regarding Tony’s high-profile appearance in front of the White House this time, although Mr. President had a smile on his face, he didn’t necessarily think so positively in his heart.
“Why is there a genius like Tony Stark in the world? And, such a genius is not owned by the country.” The president hiding in the safe house of the White House looked at Tony in the live broadcast and muttered to himself.
“Sir, there are super-geniuses in the world who are far ahead of others, and Tony Stark is a genius who is far ahead of others in physical electronic network technology. Otherwise, various famous magazines and media in the world would not have evaluated him as a scientist of the century.” Hearing the president talking to himself, his secretary sitting next to him replied indifferently.
“Of course I know this, I’m just feeling a little bit of emotion. Also, you said Tony Stark is a super genius in physical and electronic networking, do you know of any other super genius in other areas?” Hearing the words of the secretary beside him, the President sighed and asked after he remembered something.
“Although there are indeed few geniuses comparable to Tony Stark, they are not uncommon.” Hearing the President’s question, the secretary next to him answered calmly.
“En!? Who else?” The President, who obviously doesn’t know much about this kind of high-tech geniuses, was a little excited when he heard the secretary’s answer, so he asked.
Seeing that a single Tony Stark can stir the world by himself with the Iron Man Technology, the President is now particularly sensitive towards these talented individuals. Maybe, there are some hidden geniuses in the world who have quietly researched something powerful, just like Killian.
The Extremis Serum can create almost invincible warriors. Technology is really the most unpredictable thing a country can do. Technology is indeed the most important thing that drives a country’s development, but these technologies have to be captured in their own hands to be able to do so.
“En…there is Otto Gunther Octavius, a scientist who has made great achievements in Neurology, Physical Nuclear Energy, and Mechanics. Although he may be slightly worse than Tony Stark, he is also a genius who has reached a high level in his field of study.” Upon hearing the President’s question, the secretary directly introduced someone who the president had never heard of before.
“Otto Gunther Octavius? Neurology, Physical Nuclear Energy, and mechanics, that is not very similar to the development direction of Stark.” Hearing the person introduced by his secretary, the President frowned and asked. He is already tired of the usual intrigue with politicians so he doesn’t really doesn’t know who this is and what he is studying.
“Mr. President, science can actually be divided into very detailed categories. This Otto Gunther Octavius is very different from Tony Stark. If you are interested then I can pull out his detailed information for you to see.” Knowing that the President certainly doesn’t understand this aspect, the Secretary went on to explain.
“Well, of course, I am interested in him. A genius who can be compared with people like Tony Stark should be held in our own hands.” Hearing the Secretary’s words, the president replied seriously.
“Are there others?” After knowing the first one, the President now wanted to know if there were more such talents.
“There are, but it’s better to wait until I have compiled the information, and then you can go through it.” Faced with the President’s interest, the secretary pushed his gla.s.ses and said. Compared to the President who knew very little in this area, this secretary with gla.s.ses seemed to know very well.
“Good, we also need to have our own strong enough technology team to do so. The Military is always doing things to hide this and that and they do so without me knowing about them, do they really think that they can do anything without my support? And the M Department is also hiding many things, and they do not always tell us anything about their own experimental progress, if we do not do anything then sooner or later, something bad is bound to happen!” The President said helplessly as he once again watched the Iron Man army’s mighty appearance on TV.
It seems that the President is not very satisfied with some of the practices of the Military and the actions of this so-called M Department.
“Sir, it can’t be helped. The Military and the M Department are extremely confidential places, even you do not have full authority to know the details.”
“So, what is the use of me being the President?”
