He took the key from the guard and gently unlocked the iron door.
The first thing he saw was a large wooden workbench haphazardly set up. Various tools and metal scraps were scattered all over it.
To think they could create a miniature Arc Reactor and a suit of armor surpassing all technology in this environment… Truly worthy of the title, Iron Man, the mortal who rivals the gods.
Qin Xiao couldn't help but admire.
He looked into the cave. Two simple army cots were placed in the far right corner.
Two people were lying on the cots, covered with blankets of an indiscernible color. One was Dr. Yinsen, who briefly appeared in the movie.
The other was Tony Stark, who had already become Iron Man. Qin Xiao could see the faint blue light emanating from the Arc Reactor beneath the blanket.
After all, they had spent so much time together. Qin Xiao had developed a certain level of friendship with Tony.
The usually impeccably dressed Tony Stark looked like a complete mess.
With a hint of sorrow, Qin Xiao gently pulled back Tony's blanket.
"Snap!"
Just like that, Tony suddenly opened his eyes, his hand already gripping Qin Xiao's wrist.
"Uh, as your coach, should I compliment you on how well you've learned?"
Tony Stark's eyes widened, then erupted with a burst of surprise.
Qin Xiao didn't have time to say anything else. He quickly got up and turned around, clamping his hand tightly over Yinsen's mouth before he could speak.
"Shut up! If you want to live, don't shout. I'm Tony's friend!"
Yinsen was just woken up. His first reaction was to open his mouth and yell, fortunately Qin Xiao reacted quickly.
"God, I never knew seeing you could make me so happy. How did you get here?"
Tony lowered his voice, saying in surprise.
"Do you believe me if I say I'm here waiting for the next subway? Stop talking nonsense, of course I'm here to save you, my friend. Also, don't get close to me, I don't want to hug you. Damn it! Tony, you have no idea how awful you smell!"
Breaking free of Tony's embrace with effort, Qin Xiao couldn't help but pat the dust off his body.
Lowering his voice, he said: "The people outside have been dealt with. Now, keep your voice down and follow me!"
At this moment, Hawkeye's voice also came from the earpiece.
"Qin, you need to speed up. There's a monitoring room here, it's aimed right at your position. I've already taken care of a bastard who got up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, I can't hold on much longer."
"Hurry, we don't have time!"
Qin Xiao urged the other two.
Although Tony was curious about who had come with Qin Xiao, he knew this wasn't the time to ask questions.
He stood up, went to the workbench, grabbed a stack of blueprints, and followed Qin Xiao without hesitation.
When Qin Xiao led the two of them out, Black Widow had already begun to set up some small bombs around the area.
She notified Hawkeye to retreat, and the two of them climbed up towards the cave.
Black Widow looked down at the canyon filled with armaments and said,
"You two go get the car. I'll stay here and watch. If they come out, I'll give them a free fireworks show!"
Black Widow held a small detonator and said,
The situation had been urgent, and it was also dark. Tony hadn't gotten a good look at Hawkeye and Black Widow.
Now, hearing Black Widow speak, he got a clear look at her.
"It's you!"
It seemed Black Widow had made a strong impression on Tony at the casino.
But Tony was wise enough not to ask too many questions at this moment.
Instead, he said to Black Widow with a serious expression,
"I want to stay with you. The missiles, rifles, and so on below are all weapons from Stark Industries. I don't know why they're here, but I want to destroy them myself."
Qin Xiao understood Tony's current state of mind the best out of everyone. Without waiting for the others to speak, he immediately took over the conversation.
"That settles it. I'll stay and protect them. Yinsen, you go with Agent Barton to drive!"
Hawkeye glanced at Qin Xiao and Tony, said nothing, and gestured to Yinsen. He then turned and left.
The three of them found a hidden spot and lay down.
The sky was beginning to brighten.
Qin Xiao looked at the glowing Arc Reactor on Tony's chest and said, "That's a cool tattoo. It even glows. Get me one when we get back!"
Tony gave a bitter laugh.
He pulled down his shirt, revealing the Arc Reactor.
"This thing is a giant electromagnet, and there's a bunch of shrapnel constantly trying to reach my heart. I swear, you wouldn't like the feeling."
Even Qin Xiao, who knew the details, couldn't help but be shocked as he saw such a large piece of metal embedded in the man's chest, let alone Black Widow.
"At least you won't need a nightlight when you go to the bathroom anymore!"
Qin Xiao didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only pat his shoulder and say.
As soon as he finished speaking, a cacophony erupted from the camp below.
"Don't speak, they've found us!"
Black Widow said, and the three of them fell silent, watching the camp.
A large group of disheveled terrorists emerged from the cave on the left, holding various rifles and shouting at the surroundings.
Black Widow handed the remote detonator to Tony. "Wait a moment. Wait until there are more of them!"
Tony didn't speak, taking the detonator and clenching it tightly in his hand.
Evidently, the experiences of this period still left him with a certain psychological shadow.
After a short while, a bald, burly man angrily led a group of people out.
Having reviewed the surveillance footage, he was unwilling to give up and re-entered the cave where Tony had been imprisoned.
After more than a minute, he finally emerged from the cave, standing at the entrance and shouting orders to the people below.
"Now!"
Black Widow said.
Almost the instant her words fell, Tony slammed the detonator switch.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The small bombs Black Widow had planted detonated almost simultaneously.
They then triggered a large pile of missiles on the ground, along with grenades and bullets and other military supplies.
The violent explosions made the ground shake, even for the three of them standing over a hundred meters away.
Countless bullets were propelled by the explosions, scattering and bursting in the air.
It really did look like a large-scale fireworks display.
At this moment, the sound of a car engine echoed behind the three of them.
Hawkeye watched as an off-road vehicle sped towards them from the distance.
"Get in the car, the explosions will attract the attention of the local military and government. Let's not cause any unnecessary trouble; we need to leave quickly!"
Hawkeye waved at the others.
Tony took a deep look at the place, then turned and got into the car with Qin Xiao.
No one noticed the leader, the bald, burly man.
He was thrown into the cave by the shockwave the moment the explosion happened.
Although injured, he had at least avoided the full force of the blast.
As the others were leaving, he slowly crawled out of the cave, watching the dust from the cars disappearing.
He reached into his pants and pulled out a satellite phone!
