Chapitre 94: Chapter: 94
"This is a revolutionary technology that can greatly reduce the chances of soldiers sacrificing themselves on the battlefield.
Of course, we still need soldiers who can go to the frontlines. Next, I am honored to present to you the prototype of the all-purpose combat armor, along with its pilot, James Rhodes!"
While Justin Hammer was delivering an impassioned speech on stage, Rhodes, who was waiting backstage, seemed to be in trouble.
"It's your turn, Colonel. Perform well. Tonight is a great opportunity for you!"
"I understand, sir! But we may have encountered a little trouble..." Rhodes said hesitantly.
"What trouble?" the officer asked, confused.
"I have completely lost the control." Before Rhodes finished speaking, enthusiastic applause had already resounded from the stage. The War Machine armor, modified from the Mark II, was slowly stepping onto the stage with Rhodes inside.
Clang!
At the same time, Tony, who had hurriedly changed into the new element reactor and the Mark VI armor, finally arrived at the scene.
"Rhodes, listen! In the next five minutes, you have to trust me. I suspect that Hammer Industries and the Ivan Vanko who attacked me in Monaco are collaborating. Everyone here is in danger, and we need to rescue them!"
"Wait, Tony. Although I don't want to hear your lengthy explanations, I want to say that I trust you because I have locked onto the target."
"The target? What target?" Tony asked, a bit confused.
"The target is you, Tony," Rhodes said awkwardly. "I've lost control of the armor."
"Damn it! Jarvis, help me hack into Rhodes' armor. We need to regain control!"
"Sir, the armor's software has been overwritten, and I'm being blocked by the enemy's servers."
"Surely they tampered with the armor when we sent it to Hammer Industries for upgrades. Looks like you were right, Tony. Hammer and Ivan Vanko are secretly cooperating."
"What are you saying? You actually sent my greatest creation to be modified by a third-rate arms dealer!"
"Well, Stark Industries closed its weapons division, and Osborne Industries was just kicked off the military's supplier list. Hammer Industries was the only option we had."
"You leave me speechless with that statement..."
"Sir, I don't mean to interrupt your conversation, but I must remind you that the Iron Soldiers on the stage have also had their control programs manipulated. They have now locked their weapon muzzles onto you."
"Tony, you have to lead them away. Don't let them open fire in the crowd!" Rhodes shouted anxiously.
"Don't worry, Rhodes. Everything is under my control. Jarvis, contact BAymax for assistance. help us regain control of Rhodes' armor and lock onto all the Iron Soldiers. It's time to flex our muscles!"
"Understood, sir. Baymax has activated hardware acceleration backstage, and we estimate we have 5 seconds to regain control of the armor. Enemy targets have all been locked. Should we initiate a destructive attack?"
"Of course! What are we waiting for? Maximum power to the repulsors, except for leaving a necessary amount to activate the energy barrier to protect the audience area. Open fire with everything else!"
At Tony's command, the Mark VI armor, with its distinctive sharp edges that set it apart from previous models, released all the additional protrusions from its surface. They floated and flew around Tony in a radial pattern.
Some of them separated from the main force and flew in front of the audience, combining to form a huge energy barrier that tightly protected the entire audience section.
On the other side, the remaining floating cannons that had locked onto all the Iron Soldiers were also prepared, with energy converging at the muzzle, emitting a breathtaking light.
Shoo~ Shoo~ Shoo~!
Dozens of miniaturized floating cannons simultaneously fired at the targets, and the beams of energy penetrated the heads of all the targeted Iron Soldiers in an instant.
Boom!
All the Iron Soldiers controlled by Ivan, without having the chance to fire a single shot, turned into nothing but scrap metal, scattered and fallen to the ground.
"That's it, just like that," Tony said disdainfully. Although he said that, he couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction deep down. These floating cannons were really satisfying to use. They were much more enjoyable than the machine guns and bullets he had equipped before. It was worth spending a fortune and signing many unequal treaties to obtain the technical blueprints for the floating cannons from Mark. At the moment he signed the treaty, Tony felt that his integrity had gradually faded away, but now he could only say one thing: "It's awesome!"
Beside Tony, Rhode, who witnessed the entire process, exclaimed, "Is that it?! Hammer Industries, designated supplier of our military. The robots they produce are so easily dealt with, their skills are too subpar!"
"You're right, Tony. We shouldn't have sent the armor to Hammer Industries, such a third-rate manufacturer, for modification. Their skills and quality are too subpar... Sigh!" Rhode regretfully sighed. If Justin Hammer heard this, he would definitely cry. It's not that Iron Solder was too weak, it's that someone else was too strong!
Then Rhode tentatively asked, "Can you help me get a set of these cool weapons?"
Tony opened his visor and smiled slyly, "Unless your military is willing to invest one-tenth of the annual military budget into modifying this armor of yours, don't even think about getting anything out of Mark's hands."
"Alright, you rich people. Poverty really makes me lag behind," Rhode said helplessly.
"Sir, there's a message from Baymax. The control of the armor has been regained, and it has also upgraded the armor's intrusion defense system and combat assistance system, while increasing the authorization level."
"Very well, then it's time for a counterattack, Rhodey." Tony gave Rhode a look, and Rhode understood what he meant. He walked to the edge of the stage and approached Justin Hammer, who was sitting on the ground in shock. Rhode grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
"Tell me, is this your doing, or is it Ivan Vanko's doing?"
"It's... not me. It's that ungrateful Ivan."
"Where is he?"
"He's in my company. I had people guarding him." Hammer dared not hide anything and told Rhode everything he knew.
"From the current situation, it seems that your two guards have already returned to the embrace of God. As for you... wait here to be taken into custody by the New York police," Rhode said, ignoring Hammer's struggles. He tied him up and handed him over to the on-site security personnel.
"Let's go, Rhodey. To Hammer Industries!"
