บท 123: Chapter 123: The Late Tony
In order to carry more weapons and not have to worry about power, Obadiah had designed the Iron Monger to be gigantic, standing almost five metres tall alone.
The sheer size of the man makes him completely wave goodbye to the word flexible, and Skye's battle armour? Eric had designed it exactly to her height, and with the anti-gravity system based on the gravitational field, Skye could do a dance in the air.
Looking down at Skye, Obadiah raised his other arm and aimed it at Skye, which began to morph rapidly, surprisingly changing into a dark cannon muzzle and immediately flashing with a burst of electric sparks.
"Miss, we're locked on by the electromagnetic cannon." Future warned at the right time, and Skye hurriedly activated her means of response.
Skye, who was in the air, suddenly became erratic, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes up, sometimes down, as if dodging Obadiah's aim, but her dive speed did not diminish in the slightest.
"Idiot!" Obadiah sneered as the battle armor assist computer began to automatically lock onto Skye's position. The Iron Monger had no artificial intelligence assistance, but basic computer assistance was still available.
The fist-sized projectile was accelerated by the electromagnetic field and had a speed of Mach 4 the instant it was launched. At such a high speed, the little distance between the two was no different from being close at hand.
Before the sound of the cannon came, the shell had already struck Skye, but, strangely enough, the shell did not affect Skye in the slightest, not only did she not lose speed, she did not even waver, and continued to dodge while approaching.
"What happened? Did it miss?" Tony Stark poked half his head out from behind the crumbling wall, watching carefully while asking Jarvis through his wireless headset.
"Sir, the electromagnetic cannon didn't miss, but the electromagnetic field around Miss Teddy Bear was so chaotic that the light was affected by the magnetic field and refracted, and what the Iron Monger hit was just an imaginary shadow."
"Faraday effect? No, it should be the magnetic dichroic effect, the designer of the battle armour is really a genius, just a little bit closer to catching up with me."
"Sir, I think Miss Teddy Bear's battle armour is more advanced than your Mark II."
"Shut up, Jarvis ..."
...
One hit missed, and Obadiah fired dozens more electromagnetic blasts in quick succession, taking all of the battle armor's reserves of projectiles in just two seconds, but other than a few audible thuds, it froze without any effect at all.
Skye suddenly stopped when she was five metres from the 'Iron Bastard' and made a hilarious gesture of laughing, pointing at Obadiah and shaking her head repeatedly, the gesture was so contemptuous that it sent Obadiah into a rage.
But before he could activate his other weapons again, Skye darted past the Iron Bastard and behind him, aiming her slender hand at the back of Iron Bastard's head and sending an invisible shockwave that caught Obadiah off guard.
The shock wave silently penetrated Iron Bastard's armour and struck Obadiah directly on the head, knocking him dizzy and sending two arrows of blood spurting from his nose.
Obadiah was horrified, he had never thought that his opponent would be able to ignore the Iron Monger's thick armour and attack him directly, but he was no slouch either, so he fought back the discomfort of the shock and hammered his fists into his chest, opening his chest armour to reveal a large potlike lid.
Skye saw the lid and grimaced, "Electromagnetic cannon, sonic cannon, ark reactor, using all our family stuff, can't this villain design some weapons of his own?"
"Miss, his IQ is less than half of Sir's." Future duly zinged, but unfortunately not to Obadiah's ears.
The corners of Skye's mouth quirked up at her words, her eyes filled with blind admiration for Eric, "That's right, Eric is the smartest man in the world."
With her mouth complimenting her old man, Skye's hands weren't slow, she was very aware of the power of the sonic cannon, it wasn't enough to break her defences but it was easy to get hit.
Skye adjusted the ring's vibration frequency and sent a ripple of vibrations at the sonic cannon before it was ready.
But as if he had been prepared for this, the high-frequency vibrating razor blade in his hand was raised in front of his chest, using the vibration of the blade to interfere with Skye's vibrating ripple, and although it couldn't completely cancel it out, it did completely disrupt the frequency of the vibrating ripple so that it couldn't do enough damage to the sonic cannon.
"Future, I thought you said he was stupid in the head? How would he know to use the shock to disrupt the shockwave?"
"Miss, his battle armor has an auxiliary computer."
"With an auxiliary computer?" Skye brightened, "Then why fight him when we can just hack into the computer?"
Future didn't answer right away, delaying a few seconds before replying, "Miss, its auxiliary computer is not networked."
...
Eric, who was hiding in the lab peering at the screen, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard his daughter's question and gave Future the order to never hack into Iron Monger's auxiliary computer.
"Daughter, the Iron Monger is for you to gain combat experience, what's the point of this if you just cripple him?"
...
With the high-frequency vibrating sharp blade, Iron Monger bought a few precious seconds for the sonic weapon arrangement to be completed, and Obadiah pressed the launch button with a sardonic smile, despite his mouth full of blood.
With a piercing sound, a steady stream of sonic attacks struck Skye, who weaved and danced through the air, using her nimbleness to the best of her ability, always dodging just the right amount of sonic weapons no matter which way they were moving.
"Haha, that's exciting! So much fun!" Skye had completely let go and thrown herself into the fight, not only unafraid but excited to face such a dangerous weapon.
Dodging for a while, Skye suddenly made a fake move, looking as if she was going to dodge to the left. Iron Monger's auxiliary computer controlled the sonic weapon to move to the left, but Skye suddenly changed direction and rushed towards Iron Monger from the right.
Before Iron Monger could adjust his direction again, Skye had nimbly dodged past him and ducked into the dead center of the sonic cannon, adjusting the ring vibration frequency and aiming his attack at one of the Iron Bastard's combat boots.
The high-frequency vibration ripples hit it's boots, and the various parts inside them could not withstand it any longer, starting to collapse from the smallest point.
"Damn it!" Obadiah roared, activating the thrusters on his other foot before they were damaged by Skye's shockwave, and the Iron Monger shot up into the sky with flames rising from one foot, propelling him.
"Hey, don't run!" Skye yelled, flying off after him as well, relentlessly beating out gusts of shock waves behind him.
Watching the two battle armors fly further and further away, slowly disappearing from sight, Tony Stark was lost in thought for a moment.
At that moment, Jarvis suddenly spoke up to remind him, "Sir, Mark One Point Five is finished fitting."
Tony Stark: "..."
