Chapter 57: Tony’S Fighting Spirit
Tony Stark’s Ocean View Villa, Malibu, California.
Tony’s figure was sitting in front of the workbench with some dullness, holding a small acorn with a faint green light in his hand.
It was the acorn necklace Oakes gave him.
And to his left is a small holographic display with a line of words marked on it.
“Blood toxin content of 10%”.
“Jarvis, how are the preparations for the exposition?”
“Yes, sir, all the preliminary work has been prepared, and this year-long scientific-industrial event will start as planned in a week’s time.”
Jarvis listed the progress of all preparations for the Stark Industry Fair on the holographic display, and Tony nodded in satisfaction.
“This time the scene is opened in Queens, the new Stark Industrial headquarters building, I have already selected the site, right in Manhattan…
We’ll be moving soon, Jarvis. ”
“But sir, for the phenomenon of palladium poisoning, we have tried all possible solutions, and none of the known elements can replace palladium.
Dr. Oaks’ magical acorn is already the most efficient method, but it can only delay-
If it weren’t for the strong inhibitory effect of acorns on poisoning, your blood toxin content should be close to 20% now.
Moreover, the enrichment rate of palladium is not linear. Without acorns, your blood toxin content will definitely exceed 90% next month. ”
Jarvis couldn’t understand the detailed data of the style, so Tony could not help frowning, and muttered to himself:
“…Yes, this time, it’s going to be a lot of trouble, I don’t know if it’s too late.”
“Sir, maybe you can call Dr. Oakes, he may have a more effective treatment.”
Jarvis’ suggestion gave Tony a sigh of relief:
“Jarvis, I can be 100% sure and certain that Oaks’ own treatment will be much more useful than this little acorn.
But as long as the reactor is still in my chest, palladium poisoning is inevitable. ”
“But sir, if you give up the use of battle suits, the toxin precipitation speed of the reactor’s low-power operation, Acorn can completely prevent your poisoning from deepening.
And if Dr. Oakes really has a more effective method, there is even hope to eliminate the phenomenon of poisoning. ”
“You know that’s impossible, Jarvis – I’m Iron Man, the suit and I are one, and our joint efforts during this period have brought the world into the longest period of peace.
The U.S. government has done nothing, but it can continue to argue in Congress with peace of mind, but it is because no one dares to jump out and challenge me when I am in my prime—
All of this, the peace I want to see, I want us to guard together…”
“Sir, but your life…”
“Jarvis! I’m the superhero Iron Man!
I would rather die brilliantly than give up this power to protect peace because of a mere threat that is not yet deadly! ”
Tony’s voice was so calm that he was a little surprised.
“Sir, your determination is admirable.”
After a moment of silence, Jarvis said again:
“But why did you refuse to seek help from Dr. Oakes?”
“I’m not rejecting Oaks’ help.”
Tony put on the acorn necklace and shrugged:
“With the help of Acorn, I still have at least two months, and even I’m sure, with that guy in Oaks, even after two months, I still can’t die if I want to—
But I’m the genius Tony Stark, and I don’t want to be an incompetent person who depends on someone else to survive, even if that person is my friend. ”
A flash of arrogance flashed on his face, and Tony seemed to have a terrifying fighting spirit:
“Going to someone else for help without pushing yourself to a dead end? That’s not my style.
I’m already receiving help, so I can’t solve the problem by myself, and I’m too sorry for the title of ‘the greatest genius’! ”
“But sir,” just when Tony was in full swing, Jarvis’ untimely voice sounded:
“Last time, you took the initiative to ask Dr. Oakes to help deal with Obadiah.”
“Hey Jarvis, I’m here to protect Pepper, that can’t be arrogant!”
Tony’s mouth twitched: “And I used the Ark Reactor as a thank you!”
“That way I’m relieved, sir.”
Jarvis’ tone seemed cheerful:
“When you can’t hold it anymore, I’ll contact Dr. Oakes directly for you.”
Tony: “…”
“Sir, there is a call from Dr. Oakes.”
‘shut up!”
Tony rubbed his face with his hands before answering the call, with a relaxed tone:
“Hey man, have you received my invitation?”
“Hi Tony, of course, the Stark Industry Expo. This is an event that hasn’t been held since 1974.”
Oaks is clearly very interested:
“It’s a pity that it doesn’t match my major, but Dr. Eason is very interested—
We’ll be there on time, but this time I have other business with you. ”
“uh-huh?”
“Do you have any gamma-ray-related research facilities there?”
Oaks’ voice lowered instinctively:
“The more professional the better.”
“Gamma rays?”
Tony was stunned for a moment, but still instinctively blurted out:
“Hey man, are you kidding me, what research device do I have? Even if I don’t have it now, it will definitely be there tomorrow!”
“…Well, it seems that you are the right place to look for a local tyrant, but I need to… secretly do it, eh?”
Tony touched his chin, his eyes full of desire to explore:
“When did you become interested in gamma rays? That’s not a field that an average physicist can handle. Could it be that you’re finally ready to switch to a doctorate in physics?”
“No, I just need to study its effect on cells. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com cooperates with my plant transformation experiment.”
Oaks made a random reason, but it was close to the truth:
“I just don’t have a way out. After all, Dr. Ethan is not very convenient. I don’t want to owe them favors over SHIELD. The equipment list will be sent to your email.”
“OK, I’ll send it to you tomorrow.”
“The fee is deducted from the dividend.”
“Of course, I will.”
Tony heard that Oaks on the opposite side seemed to be silent all of a sudden, and couldn’t help complaining:
“Don’t worry, the cost price.”
“…Are you all right recently?”
Ox’s abrupt sentence made Tony sweat a bit on his forehead:
“Huh? Me? Of course I’m fine, I’m fine, why ask that?”
“That’s good. Listening to Melinda saying that the amount of lace news you’ve received has dropped significantly recently, I thought there was something wrong with you…”
“Hey! Wow! Oaks, you bastard!”
Ox’s strange tone made Tony almost lose his breath, and he screamed strangely:
“You little chick dare to question me, a super old driver!
It seems that I need to find a time to hold a private party for you. Don’t worry, I will definitely choose at least ten experienced and top-notch beauties to serve you specially! ”
“Ah…that’s not necessary, just eat the necklace if it really doesn’t work…”
“Sheet! I just need to wear it! Hurry up and send me an email! Hang up!”
The phone hung up, Tony let out a long breath, and after a few seconds, he showed a wry smile.
“Sir, Dr. Oakes, he…”
“He probably noticed something.”
“Sir, I mean Dr. Oakes’ email has arrived.”
“…”
