I'll go get it for you, then you can figure out how to convince Pepper yourself."
Seeing that Tony seemed to have a plan for this, Harvey didn't say anything more.
He teleported directly back home, and the next second, Harvey appeared before Tony, carrying various Gravity Devices that Sonia had helped him purchase.
"I'll be staying on Earth for a while to relax."
"Call me when you've handled things and are ready to leave."
After placing the items on the ground, Harvey waved his hand and left.
After Harvey left, Jarvis quickly scanned the strangely shaped devices and spoke.
"Sir, after scanning."
"It's best not to activate these items inside the laboratory. Otherwise, if an unknown Gravity Device is activated, the drastic changes in gravity will tear the laboratory apart."
"It would prolong your research progress."
Jarvis offered his advice immediately.
"Hmm, how to change gravity should be one of the starting points for a Cosmic Warship."
Tony nodded at the remark, then squatted down and opened several large, different-shaped boxes. Looking at the contents, his eyes became somewhat fervent.
One must know that it was precisely because current human technology couldn't solve the problem of gravity that the selection criteria for human astronauts were exceptionally stringent.
If he could thoroughly research this, it wouldn't just mean endless wealth—to be honest, Tony currently had no shortage of money.
More importantly, if he could thoroughly research the Gravity Device and then produce it independently, it would allow for a broadening of astronaut selection criteria, which would help humanity understand the Universe more quickly.
Moreover, this item was also crucial for creating Cosmic Warships. He had learned about it from books, but due to limitations in materials and knowledge, he had no way to start.
Now that he had ready-made Gravity Devices, he only needed to research and understand them, then he could emulate and replicate a lesser version.
He could directly produce lesser inventions based on the materials, then gradually improve them through research to create his own inventions.
Some inventions come from sudden inspiration, quickly leading to various inventions that ordinary people don't understand.
But more inventions require extensive knowledge and accumulated experience, supplemented by various instruments for research, to ensure their creation.
If existing inventions can be researched, it's even more like standing on the shoulders of giants.
If the various civilizations in the Universe have grown into giants, humanity is currently like a child who has not yet grown up.
Various technologies from aliens can rapidly help Earth's technology grow.

After Harvey handed the items to Tony, he returned home and took a comfortable bath.
"Sonia, arrange afternoon tea for me…"
As Harvey finished his bath, his golden battle armor automatically appeared on him, and he casually gave an instruction.
However, after speaking and realizing there was no response, Harvey looked at the familiar surroundings and remembered that he was now back on Earth, and Sonia was not with him.
For nearly half a year, his daily meals had been served by Sonia, making him accustomed to it without realizing.
But after Harvey realized he was on Earth, his golden battle armor receded, and he walked into the walk-in closet, picked out a clean, casual outfit, and drove out to find something to eat.
Harvey drove around, eventually heading to Chinatown, where he ordered some of his favorite dishes.
S.H.I.E.L.D. also became aware of Harvey's return, so they instructed Agents to stay away from the areas where Harvey was active.
Although they didn't know where Harvey had suddenly disappeared for several months, they were very clear that unless absolutely necessary, they should not leave the vicinity of his location; otherwise, they should stay as far away from Harvey, this demon, as possible.
Even if others were super-powered individuals, Nick Fury had ways to deal with them.
However, facing Harvey, a demon whose strength was terrifying and who was unbound by law or morality, if S.H.I.E.L.D. provoked him, it might cease to exist.
Their last escape was fortunate because Coulson had left a good impression during his contact with Harvey, and Tony Stark had helped smooth things over.
Therefore, unless absolutely forced, Nick Fury did not want to stand against Harvey again.
Moreover, until Harvey caused extensive damage to Earth, Nick Fury couldn't very well ask Captain Marvel for help.
After Harvey finished his afternoon dessert, he drove around.
While on Xandar, he had to consider various matters, such as how to rapidly improve his strength.
Even upon returning to Earth, he was considering whether he could bring Tony into the Universe.
However, since this plan was now complete, Harvey naturally decided to thoroughly relax.
Harvey drove around New York. Faced with numerous beautiful women trying to pick him up, he, for the first time in a while, chose a beautiful woman whose appearance, figure, and age were all suitable, and spent the night with her.
The beautiful women of Xandar were similar in appearance and body shape to those on Earth, so each had their own charm. If he wanted to find a companion, it wouldn't be difficult.
However, over there, Harvey had to maintain Kassadin's identity.
So he wasn't limited by physical desires; at most, he would find something to do to pass the time.
Now that he was back on Earth, resuming his identity as a wealthy New York young master, there was naturally no need to hide.
The next day at noon, when Harvey woke up, he indulged in another moment of pleasure, then gave the woman two million U.S. dollars and severed all contact.
Money was a small matter for Harvey; currently, just the dividends from Stark Industries alone brought him two to three hundred million each month.
It could be said that even if he spent five million a day, Harvey wouldn't exhaust his daily income.
If he had relations with a woman and didn't completely cut ties, that would be troublesome. He didn't want these minor matters to affect his mood.
Afterward, for more than twenty consecutive days, Harvey spent his time eating and being accompanied by beautiful women.
Once the need to consider earning money was removed, the lives of the wealthy were indeed this simple and unpretentious.
During this period, Sonia also called to report that many visitors had arrived.
However, without sufficient intelligence and unable to meet Harvey, not many people—only eight—could persist for four or five days, still firmly believing in the Void God Cult.
Some even claimed it was a scam by Kassadin to trick them into spending money on the island.
For this, Sonia even sought Harvey's opinion on how to handle it.
Harvey naturally didn't care about these rumors. Although he sought Void Energy, he had set very broad conditions, willing to give everyone a chance.
However, as long as he obtained one or two more hero templates, Harvey would be confident enough to deal with many powerful enemies.
So, for those who wanted to gain the power of the Void and change their lives, Harvey didn't have too many demands; at least, they couldn't be overly eager for quick success and needed to possess sufficient patience.
If they didn't even have the patience to wait a few days, such people, after gaining power, would inevitably risk violating the Void God Cult's precepts due to their desire for even greater power.
Executing them was a small matter; the main issue was that it would attract a lot of trouble, and might even lead other members of the Void God Cult to commit similar violations of the precepts.
Harvey currently didn't have enough power to dictate rules for the Universe, but when selecting individuals, assessing their character was still possible.
