American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 681 Support
"Tony, although I don't like your arrogant attitude, I have to admit that you do have an enviable talent in the field of technology..."

Killian circled the Iron Patriot once, then entered the armor and muttered, "But times have changed. The future belongs to my genetic technology, not your mech..."

"Just wait! Since the woman you love can't soften your heart, there will always be someone who can make you submit or even surrender."

Killian activated the Steel Patriot, gave a few instructions to his men, and then leaped into the air and flew away.

"What nonsense is he spouting?" Tony had a bad feeling as he watched Iron Patriot leave.

Based on his previous actions, Killian is not someone who speaks without reason.

"Who knows? Let me think, who are the people who can make you submit..." Colonel Rhodes said casually, still teasing Tony.

But not long after, he seemed to realize something, his expression changed, and he said, "I think I know who he's going to see."

"At this time of day, the president should be giving a speech at the White House. And the 'killing machine' is one of the people who can easily get close to the president."

In other words, if Colonel Rhodes is not mistaken, Killian is now planning to kidnap the president.

This really caused a huge commotion.

"Tsk tsk tsk, although I hate to say it, I still have to. Rhodes, you're finished this time. Afterwards, the president and White House officials will probably skin you alive." With his friend in such bad luck, Tony finally found an opportunity to retaliate, gloating, "Also, the armor I supplied to the country is called Iron Patriot. It's not some kind of [Killing Machine]."

Iron Patriot is the name Tony gave to the armor he donated, representing a certain attitude of his.

"Killing Machine" was a nickname Colonel Rhodes gave to the suit of armor without his permission.

Because he thought that was cool.

"No, I insist on calling it 'Killing Machine.' And I already suggested to you that I should be given private access to that suit of armor," Colonel Rhodes persisted.

Furthermore, he has always believed that since Tony has given away the armor, he should grant the user single-person access.

Instead of the way it is now, where anyone can just get into the armor and use it.

“That’s my armor. Even if it’s been given away, I should still have the highest authority over it.” Tony felt that the product’s patent rights needed to be clearly defined.

However, considering the current situation, he said dejectedly, "Forget it, now is not the time to dwell on these things. I just hope that your guess will never come true."

However, what you fear most is what comes to pass.

Before Killian left, he seemed to have given some instructions to his men.

Just as Tony and Colonel Rhodes were debating and explaining themselves, a few thugs brought in a television and placed it in front of the two of them.

The television was showing footage of the president giving a speech at the White House, and then, in front of everyone, the Iron Patriot went to the president's side without any hindrance.

Then he seized the president and soared to the top.

The speech was abruptly ended.

"I'm finished!" Colonel Rhodes knew what that meant.

After this ordeal, he will likely lose the president's trust and even the right to use the Steel Patriot.

"Don't worry, if we manage to escape this, I'll grant Iron Patriot access that only you can use." Tony, unusually kind, offered some comfort to his fellow sufferer, Rhodes.

"Thank you, I feel much better." Colonel Rhodes forced a smile onto his bitter face.

“No, no, no, you don’t have to do this. I don’t like men…” Tony suddenly screamed.

It turned out that, without anyone noticing, Colonel Rhodes's hand, which had been behind his back, had been placed on Tony's hand.

Tony, who has a clear case of mysophobia, makes sure everything he connects has been handled by Pepper Potts' hands, especially when it comes to men.

Moreover, having just started making progress in his relationship with Chili Pepper, he had no intention of getting involved in a gay relationship.

Even if the third party is Colonel Rhodes, it won't work.

"I don't like men either..." Colonel Rhodes' face also showed a look of disgust.

Tony later realized that he had misunderstood his friend.

The two were strapped to the frame back to back, with their hands close together behind their backs, allowing for a lot of room to maneuver.

Therefore, Colonel Rhodes is trying to free Tony's hands from their restraints.

Because they couldn't see what was behind them, they inevitably had to test the waters a few more times, which led to Tony's misunderstanding.

After Tony understood Colonel Rhodes's intention, he didn't say anything more, but his expression remained resistant.

Fortunately, after fulfilling Killian's instructions before leaving, the thugs in the room went off in twos and threes to chat and joke around.

They didn't even notice Tony and Rod's subtle actions.

It's safe to say they're just petty thugs; even with someone leading them, they're still not respectable.

In the villa on the other side, Mike had already finished his dessert.

The taste was surprisingly good. "Alright, Tony's probably getting impatient, it's time for me to get moving." Mike put down his napkin and prepared to head to Tennessee.

He hadn't forgotten that he still had a mission to complete.

"You just got back, where are you going again? No, you have to take me with you this time." The little girl, around ten years old, is at the age where she's very clingy.

Seeing Mike create the portal, Hit-Girl immediately swarmed over.

"Stop messing around, I have important business to attend to." Mike pushed away Hit-Girl who was clinging to his leg.

It just doesn't work very well.

Hit-Girl clung tightly to Mike, blinking her big eyes and saying cutely, "You said the same thing last time, and then you left for more than two months. Anyway, this time, you can't fool me again."

Despite his strength, Mike still didn't have a good solution for the little girl's tantrums.

"Moritz~"

Just then, Scarlet Witch, who was clearing away the dishes, suddenly looked up and stared at Hit-Girl.

A flash of red light passed through his eyes.

"Okay, okay. I got it~" Hitgirl, after being warned, chuckled and let go of his hand.

Immediately, an innocent and adorable expression appeared on her little face.

Of course, this wasn't meant for Mike to see, but rather to deceive the Scarlet Witch behind him.

HitGirl had long noticed that as the power of chaos within her grew stronger, Scarlet Witch's emotions gradually became "unpredictable."

Sometimes it can be quite scary.

On the contrary, Scarlet Witch's emotions would inexplicably stabilize when she was facing Mike.

The precocious Hit-Girl has decided to find a time when the witch isn't around and give Mike a good rant about her.

"Don't worry, if things go well, I should be back tonight, and maybe I can even have dinner with you guys." Mike, who doesn't use his [mind-reading] ability to probe the thoughts of those around him, has no idea what Hit-Girl is planning.

After offering a word of comfort, he stepped into the portal.

"What the hell, acting like nobody cares..." After Mike disappeared, HitGirl muttered arrogantly.

They expressed their dissatisfaction.

"Moritz, given your previous performance, you can play for an extra hour today." Over there, Scarlet Witch, dressed casually at home, was helping Mike finish up.

"Really? I knew you were the best~" HitGirl, having received permission, happily rushed to the sofa.

There was a handheld game console there.

HitGirl, now engrossed in the game, decided to postpone her complaint for a while.

In short, it's not a big problem.

"Stop, Rhodes. Our savior has arrived!"

Inside the Tennessee terrorist stronghold, Tony looked at the unique, pure white portal that appeared before him, a relieved smile spreading across his face.

Finally, I no longer have to endure men touching me.

this point is very important.

"Just bear with it a little longer, I'll be done in a minute." Colonel Rhodes, whose mind was focused on untying Tony, didn't notice the portal not far away.

They just thought Tony was being dramatic.

"Listen to me, stop wasting your time. Mike's here to save us..."

"You mean the Guardians?"

"..."

After being reminded, when Colonel Rhodes looked up, he saw Mike, who was radiating a soft white light, walking out of the portal.

A barrage of magical whips swept out, instantly imprisoning all the terrorists in the room.

As the magic whip slowly retracted, the terrorists fell one after another.

"Cool~"

Colonel Rhodes was stunned when he witnessed the power of magic for the first time. This mysterious power was not only highly efficient, but also very elegant to use.

Compared to that, the right to use the [Killing Machine] doesn't seem so appealing anymore.
