Capítulo 2: Chapter 2: Who Withstood the Nuclear Bomb
[The Q&A session begins. Please be prepared, participants!]
[Question 1: Who destroyed the Chitauri mothership by sending the nuclear bomb into the portal during the Battle of New York?]
[A) Tony Stark/Iron Man]
[B) Steve Rogers/Captain America]
[C) Bruce Banner/Hulk]
[D) Thor]
[Reminder: Correct answer rewards a set of Mark VII armor, while a wrong answer deducts one year of lifespan.]
As everyone in the question and answer space was discussing and communicating with each other, a synthesized electronic voice suddenly resounded.
At the same time, the corresponding text appeared in the air, flickering with a gentle glow, suspending right in front of everyone's eyes.
"What technique is this? A holographic projection? But where is the projection device?" Tony Stark's first concern was not the question itself, but the form in which the question appeared.
He searched high and low, but couldn't find any projection device. The text just hung in the air without any visible means of projection.
"Is this the purpose of the mastermind behind this? To make us answer questions?" Nick Fury stared at the question, deep in thought.
"What is Chitauri? Having a mothership signifies a technological power that only major nations possess. However, I have never heard of any country or region named Chitauri," Natasha Romanoff turned to Nick Fury and asked, "Have you heard of this place?"
"Never," Nick Fury shook his head. "And as far as I know, no country has mastered portal technology yet. If this place called Chitauri in the question can indeed create portals, then its technological capabilities would surpass those of all nations today."
"You guys are actually analyzing this seriously?" Tony Stark chuckled as he listened. "Of course, no one has heard of this Chitauri because it's made up by the question setter! From the question to the options, it's all made up nonsense."
"Mr. Stark, are you saying that the question setter brought us here in a way that none of us can comprehend, just to create a random question and mess with us?" Natasha Romanoff asked.
"I think it's best if we answer the question first, and answer it seriously, just like your future son earnestly telling you that he wants to eat teddy bear cookies," Nick Fury said, supporting his chin with one hand as he analyzed. "In the history of New York, such a war has never occurred. Since it's not the past, it must be referring to the future. This question is about a certain day in the future when the Chitauri will engage in a war with someone in New York. But who? Will it be with us?"
"We have too little information to speculate," Natasha Romanoff also analyzed. "Let's take a look at the options. We can exclude Captain America right away; he died a long time ago and couldn't participate in a future war. The Hulk, who wreaked havoc on the streets of New York a few years ago, has immense strength and can withstand bullets, but he can't fly and wouldn't be able to send a nuclear bomb into the portal in the sky."
"Of the remaining two options, Thor is a mythical god, and he should be able to fly," Nick Fury pondered. "However, he's a mythical figure..."
"Both of you, I think this question is very simple, even a three-year-old child knows the answer," Tony Stark spoke up again.
"Well, what do you think we should choose?" Natasha Romanoff asked.
"Sending a nuclear bomb into a portal to destroy a mothership, what kind of action is that? It's the action of a superhero!" Tony Stark said as he paced. "And who among the four options is a superhero? Though I don't want to boast, it's a fact that it's me! So, this question is very simple, just another cliché story of a superhero saving the world. I choose A, Tony Stark/Iron Man."
[Answer correct! Reward issued!]
A set of stylish red armor appeared out of thin air.
"They actually gave me the armor!" Tony Stark widened his eyes in disbelief, staring at the armor before him.
He hadn't taken this question seriously at all; he had just casually made a remark. But unexpectedly, a set of armor appeared right in front of him!
What's even more bizarre is that the instructions for using this armor also appeared directly in his mind, although he didn't need them.
"Stark, tell me, what you're seeing in front of you, is it a model or the actual armor?" Nick Fury's one eye was filled with astonishment.
Although he asked this question, he already had an answer in his mind.
"If the reward is real, then the question..." Natasha Romanoff shifted her gaze away from the armor and focused back on the suspended text. "Will the Chitauri really initiate a war in New York on a certain day in the future?"
"After we get out of here, I will investigate immediately. I will dig deep and find them, no matter what!" Nick Fury said in a stern voice.
At that moment, the text disappeared, and a video started playing in the air.
"Commander, there's something unusual on the deck!" Agent Hill urgently reported from inside the helicarrier. "Attention, all personnel! We have an unauthorized aircraft taking off. Shoot it down! I repeat, the takeoff was not authorized!"
The scene switched, showing Nick Fury running outside with a rocket launcher. With a loud blast, he hit the tail of one fighter jet, causing it to be instantly disabled, but another fighter jet successfully took off.
Nick Fury picked up a handgun and aimed, but the fighter jet had already flown out of the helicarrier, so he had to put the handgun down.
"You actually shot at your own aircraft with a rocket launcher?" Natasha Romanoff said. "I never thought you could be more extravagant than Tony Stark."
"Unauthorized takeoff? How dare my subordinates defy my orders!" Nick Fury's face turned grim. "But even so, as the director, I don't need to personally shoot down planes with a rocket launcher, do I? What exactly is happening?"
"Stark, do you hear me? There's a fighter jet carrying a nuclear bomb heading your way!" In the footage, Nick Fury failed to stop the jet and quickly contacted Tony Stark.
"How much time do we have left?" The camera cut to Tony Stark, who was lying on the ground, looking very disheveled from the beating he took.
"Three minutes. It will destroy the entire city district."
"Jarvis, divert all power to the thrusters." Tony Stark fought off a few enemies, and his feet emitted a dazzling energy as he shot up into the sky.
