In the afternoon, Lake made a phone call to Pepper Potts and then went home from get off work on time.
He cared a lot about Wanda's matter, but from the surveillance, it was obvious that Wanda didn't seem to want to see him at this time. Moreover, Lake also had some questions that he had not figured out, so he cared a lot, but not too much.
Late at night.
Lake was woken by the phone call.
"Hello!"
"Director, Obadiah Stane has been found."
"…"
Lake lifted the quilt and rubbed his brow: "Where is it."
look.
There was no need to waste tracking cards on Obadiah Stane. As a destined villain, he would undoubtedly reveal his true identity even if he was hiding before his destiny was fulfilled.
"Fort Hancock."
"…New Jersey?"
"Yes."
The homeland agent on duty said, "Just now, an explosion occurred at a Stark-owned property in Fort Hancock. When the local police rushed over, Obadiah Stan killed the first group of firefighters and police officers and escaped."
Lake nodded at first, but then frowned: "What did you say? Killing firefighters and police officers?"
Is Obadiah really that powerful?
At this point, Obadiah and Tony Stark had fallen out a long time ago. Even if he could find a way to get Tony's first-generation machine blueprints, would Obadiah, who was currently hiding and acting like a rat, have the time to tinker with his own Overlord mecha within these fifteen days?
The land agent over there said: "The surveillance footage from the scene has been sent..."
Just as the homeland agent was speaking, a scream was heard downstairs.
Skye's?
Lake raised his eyebrows, and with a whoosh, he passed through the wall, and with a thud, he jumped down from the spiral staircase.
Just then.
A cute little cry came.
Bu-yi!!!!
Snap!
Iron Man Tony, who had just pushed the door open and walked in from the balcony, looked like a beggar with his arm guard torn to pieces. He instantly attracted the attack of Eevee who was trying to protect Skye.
thunder!
Click!
Under Lake's gaze, a bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere and hit Tony Stark. Then, a wisp of black smoke emerged from Tony's head. Tony exhaled a puff of black smoke and his lips moved.
With a thud.
Tony fell to the ground.
Lake was stunned.
Skye, who was wearing pajamas, staying awake late at night, holding Eevee and a glass of milk in her hand, was also stunned.
Five minutes later.
Skye hugged Eevee, blinked, and looked at Lake, who was lying on the sofa and pouring life potion into Tony's mouth. He said softly, "I'm sorry, Lake."
The Ibrahimovic in his arms was also calling "Ibrahimovic" softly, and seemed to be apologizing.
After Lake gave Tony a bottle of life potion, he said, "It's okay. This guy asked for it."
In the middle of the night, you come to visit and instead of going through the front door, you go through the back door?
Serves you right.
Lake thought so in his heart, feeling Tony's breath of life at the moment, and then looked at Skye curiously: "It's the middle of the night, why aren't you sleeping?"
Skye said, "I'm thirsty, so I came down to have a glass of milk."
Lake said "oh".
Skye blinked, as if thinking of something. He lowered his head and looked at the cute Eevee in his arms, which looked like a small cake. Then he looked up at Lake and said, "Just now, Eevee..."
Lake interrupted directly: "You are mistaken again, it's an illusion."
Skye's mouth twitched: "How can there be so many hallucinations? There are no bugs in my brain anymore."
The bullet turning is an illusion.
The letters that appeared out of thin air in the electronic fireplace were also illusions.
good.
I accepted it and regarded it as an illusion.
But just now...
Sky dared to swear to God that although he was frightened by Tony who broke into the goal, after the Eevee in his arms stood up, he could clearly see a bolt of lightning falling on Tony.
Lake looked at Skye seriously and said, "What we see is not determined by our eyes, but by our brains. Think about it yourself, Eevee, is it scientific that such a small pet can summon thunder?"
Skye opened his mouth: "...It doesn't match."
Lake spread his hands towards Skye and said, "I'm done, go to bed."
Skye said "oh" obediently, and when he was walking towards the spiral staircase holding Eevee and a bottle of freshly heated milk, he stopped, stood there and thought for a while, then was silent for a second or two, and started walking again.
Is there really something wrong with my brain?
Skye thought so in his heart.
soon.
Skye disappeared down the spiral staircase with a heart full of questions and self-doubt.
Lake shook his head helplessly. He felt that if he continued to deceive Skye like this, sooner or later Skye would probably start to doubt whether this world was real.
Should I tell her Skye's story in advance?
As Lake was thinking this, Tony Stark cried out in pain on the sofa, turned over, and fell directly to the floor with a plop.
Tony seemed a little dazed by the electric shock. He supported himself with his arms, stood up, and looked at Lake who was sitting on the sofa in pajamas: "Lake?"
Lake looked at Tony with interest: "Stark Industries is not far from here. Why did you come to me instead of looking for Pepper? Are you looking for help?"
Tony looked at his tattered armor, stood up and shook his head: "I don't want Pepper to see me like this."
Lake said "oh", then his face darkened and he said to Tony, "Then thank you."
MMP.
You can't let Pepper see your miserable state, but I can?
Well...
never mind.
Lake shook his head. "Tell me, what's going on? There's no reason. You've already transformed. Killing Obadiah shouldn't be a big deal, right? Why are you in such a bad state?"
Jack has already led the team over there.
New Jersey has its own Department of Homeland Security. Lake just made a phone call there, and they said they would share the results of the investigation into this case with New York State.
Tony connected with Jarvis and asked him to diagnose his body while answering Lake's question: "Obadiah is no longer Obadiah."
Said.
Tony was talking about what happened when he arrived at Fort Hancock.
actually...
Even Homeland Security did not expect that Obadiah Stane would play the trick of hiding the truth. They investigated the assets under Obadiah Stane's name and various cash expenditures, but they did not expect that Obadiah would hide among the assets under Stark Industries.
this...
The operation was quite bizarre, especially this asset. After Tony's investigation, he found out that it did not exist in the Stark Industries system. He couldn't help but wonder how many assets that Obadiah had secretly purchased for Stark Industries that were not registered in the system over the years.
In short.
After finding out all this, Tony Stark maintained the Iron Man suit and went straight to the door wearing the brand new Iron Man suit after nightfall.
Lake interrupted, stifling a laugh, and looked at Tony: "And then, you got beaten out?"
Tony looked at Lake, ignored the words, and continued speaking.
Fort Hancock, located below the Statue of Liberty and on the edge of Larripa Bay, is an unremarkable warehouse that looks old and has no signs on it.
When Tony entered the warehouse, it was obvious that Obadiah Stane's cloning resurrection had entered the final stage, or to be more precise, the cloning warehouse had been opened.
The moment the cloning chamber was opened, endless black fog emerged from the ground. Tony even saw the two creatures he had cloned and resurrected, which he originally thought were his parents, had completely transformed into parasitic demons.
After seeing Tony, the two parasitic demons immediately fought with Tony.
At that time, Obadiah looked back in shock. Behind him, his wife and children who had crawled out of the cloning warehouse were tearing their lips like the Slit-Mouthed Woman. Under the countless black mists, they bit Obadiah who had his back to them.
Afterwards.
Seeing this, the two parasitic demons that were being hit by Tony's palm cannon and were retreating continuously also retreated directly. Just like the parasitic demon that was bitten from behind Obadiah, they bit Obadiah from the front.
Tony was dumbfounded.
He was a little confused about what was going on.
Almost at the moment when Obadiah screamed, the black mist that emerged from the four parasitic demons directly surrounded Obadiah. In the black mist was accompanied by blood and Obadiah's shrill screams.
Next second.
With a loud bang!
Tony Stark was directly blasted out of the warehouse by the erupting black tide, and even blasted into a private house.
Then...
Fort Hancock, which originally had few residents, suddenly woke up from its sleep.
Tony quickly stood up and went out to meet the enemy.
In the shattered warehouse, four parasitic demons were lost, but Obadiah, with black smoke all over his body and blood-red and dark pupils, looked at Tony Stark who was in front of him and said something.
Lake looked at Tony and said, "He said something. What did he say?"
Tony recalled the scene, looked at Lake, and said, "Black-hearted."
Black heart?
What the hell is this?
However, the demon with a name, at the very least, is not one of those low-level demons that don't even deserve a name. At the very least, it should be a mid-level demon.
Tony nodded: "Yes, he said he is black-hearted, he came here to..."
Lake blinked: "What do you want."
Tony said in a deep voice: "Reopen the gates of hell."
Lake gasped.
Not the kind of surprise that's surprising.
Well...
All right.
It was also surprising.
But I am not surprised by the grand ideals of this black-hearted demon, but I am surprised by his arrogance.
You said you would reopen the gates of hell, so just reopen them.
Do you think the New York Temple is just for decoration?
or...
You think that witch hunters or other magicians living in New York are transparent.
Reopen hell and make you bleed from the nose.
How to open it?
Do you want to open it with your head?
