Chương 122: Chapter 122: Iron Bastard
"No answer? Tony? Did you make that? Unmanned battle armour? Great idea! It would make a fortune selling it to the Ministry of Defence! But why is it in a stupid shape, is it intended for some chick?"
When Skye didn't answer for a long time, Obadiah didn't want to wait any longer and the two Gatlings on his back shot out, the shells piling up fast at his feet.
Unfortunately, he underestimated Skye's battle armour and the spewing bullets, which started to slow down frantically when they were three metres away from Skye, flew less than a metre before they completely lost momentum and fell down.
"What a great idea! Use a special magnetic field to slow the bullets down, Jarvis, record it!" Tony Stark was very shamelessly hiding behind a half wall to steal the show, his face full of the excitement of discovering a new world.
"Sir, I think this battle armour is more advanced than your Mark II." A solid comment from Jarvis caused Tony Stark's excited expression to freeze at that.
"No, it's just a little more creative in places, yes, just a little more creative!"
...
Seeing that the machine gun was useless, Obadiah simply fired all the missiles in his armor, while he controlled the Iron Monger with a heavy stride, and came running wildly towards Skye.
Skye was still discussing her superhero nickname with Future when she didn't expect Obadiah to fire without even a greeting, and the storm of bullets instantly stunned her.
Where had she ever seen this before! She grew up in an orphanage and lived as a princess straight after being adopted by Eric. She was pampered every day and the only exercise she got was sparring with Barton or Psylocke, but they were Eric's men, so they didn't dare to hit her to death, and all they taught her were gentle movements and fancy tricks that were not useful in the eyes ...
The battle armor's magnetic field defense activated on its own, deflecting the roiling bullets, which relieved Skye, but the ensuing missiles made her heart rise to her throat again.
"Future, missiles! What to do? What to do?" No matter how good she was on the internet, in reality, she was still just a fifteen-year-old after all.
"Miss, no need to worry, after calculations, the missiles are not powerful enough to destroy the magnetic shield."
Sure enough, several missiles exploded in front of Skye, but they were all deflected by the invisible magnetic shield, not hurting Skye inside at all.
With the precedent of the teddy bear blocking the missiles, Obadiah knew in his heart that hitting this strange unmanned battle armour in the air with missiles would most likely not do anything, it was just to cover up his next attack.
The fire from the missile blast blocked Future's probing, and by the time her probes had re-detected the Iron Monger, he was less than five metres from Skye.
Two thick jets of flame shot out from beneath the suits feet, propelling its hulking body high into the air as it swung towards Skye, a sharp blade over two metres long extending from the top of that huge iron fist.
This was one of Obadiah's secret weapons, the blade was made of gold and titanium alloy, and a special device enabled it to produce high frequency vibrations that, at maximum power, could cut through a metre of steel like tofu!
The blade did not disappoint Obadiah, easily piercing through the magnetic shield and slashing towards Skye's head, a fierce smile appeared on Obadiah's face.
"Dang!" There was a loud bang as the sharp blade collided with Skye's rabbit helmet, and the Iron Monger, with his size advantage, sent Skye flying.
Skye spun uncontrollably in the air, letting out an ear-piercing scream that Obadiah and Stark would have heard if Future hadn't shielded the sound.
Future controlled the battle armor to hover down, the way this armor flew was fundamentally different from the Mark series, it didn't have jets under its feet, flight relied entirely on an anti-gravity system that altered the gravitational field, the wings on its back only provided power, directional control, and a good look ...
"Miss, shouldn't you be doing something besides screaming?"
"Ah! I don't know!This Iron Bastard is too strong, Future, let's go home!" Skye's face was pale and she looked genuinely terrified, how could she have ever imagined that a real fight could be so terrifying!
"Are you really going to go back on this, Miss, and then let Mister laugh at you?"
"I ..." at the mention of Eric, Skye immediately calmed down and muttered with a pout, "He's not going to laugh at me."
With that on her lips, she knew in her heart of hearts that she was doing really badly! What was she here for? To save Stark, but to try to run away and almost cry when the fight had just started? That was so humiliating!
"What am I going to do, Future?" Regaining her courage and steeling her spirits, Skye asked Future for advice with an open mind.
"Miss, your battle armour is extremely defensive, you don't need to worry about Iron Monger's attack, he can't hurt you, just think of this fight as a computer game, think of the fighting skills Mr. Barton and Ms. Psylocke taught you, you will win!"
"A computer game?" Skye muttered, a bright light flashed in her eyes, completely regaining her composure and her eyes became serious, exactly as they usually were when attacking someone's firewall.
As soon as she got involved with a computer, Skye could get her head working fast, and in the internet, she was queen!
Obadiah could not have imagined that his secret weapon had not caused the slightest damage to his enemy, he looked at Skye floating in the air in amazement and then at the sharp blade in his hand, his face full of confusion.
"Jarvis, what kind of metal is that? Adamantium?" Stark on the side was also shocked beyond belief, this was his home and his testing was far more comprehensive than Obadiah's, even though a large part of it had been destroyed by Obadiah, there was still a lot still in operation and soon Jarvis came up with the answer.
"Based on the data comparison, that is most likely vibranium, sir, the same material as the shield your father built for Captain America."
"Vibranium? Didn't Pops use up all the vibranium in the world to build the shield?"
"I'm afraid that's not the case ..."
In a short gap of ten seconds or so, Skye had already adjusted her state, she treated the 'Iron Bastard' as a big boss with open teeth and claws in the game, the data of the Iron Bastard battle armor flashed through her mind one by one, combined with her own battle armor data, she quickly analyzed where the Iron Bastard's weakness was.
"It's not that hard!" Skye laughed lightly with confidence as her wings flicked and she swooped down towards the Iron Bastard.
...
In Eric's secret laboratory, Eric stood alone in front of the computer screen, watching Skye's change of heart, from weakness to strength, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
In the future, she will have to face the dangers herself, and by giving her more exercise now, she will be in less danger in the future. The Iron Monger is a very suitable whetstone.
