Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1471 Growth
Tony quickly made a temporary but highly targeted modification to his Iron Man suit, adding several sets of high-intensity ultraviolet lamps.

These ultraviolet lamps are different from the ones that vampire hunter Abraham Whistler in the movie "Blade" pieced together using simple folk materials. They come from Stark Industries' top production lines and are the crystallization of technology and engineering art.

Whistler's UV lamp can threaten vampires to a certain extent, but it is often powerless when facing powerful enemies. Tony's UV lamp, on the other hand, is a different story.

Ultraviolet rays, an electromagnetic wave that is ubiquitous in nature, are subdivided into long-wave ultraviolet rays (UVA), medium-wave ultraviolet rays (UVB) and short-wave ultraviolet rays (UVC) according to their wavelength.

Among them, the UVC band is known for its strong bactericidal ability and is a star in the field of disinfection.

However, under natural conditions, due to the protective mechanism of the Earth's atmosphere, UVC can hardly penetrate the atmosphere to reach the surface. This is both the gentleness of the laws of nature and a barrier that protects humans from harm.

But artificially created UV lights, especially high-intensity versions, can mimic and amplify this natural force, making them an effective weapon against certain threats.

Tony's ultraviolet lamp has an intensity of an astonishing 100000 microwatts per square centimeter (μW/cm). Behind this number lies a shocking energy density.

To understand this intensity intuitively, let's compare it with the intensity of ultraviolet rays in nature.

At noon when the sky is clear and the sun is shining directly on the ground, the intensity of ultraviolet rays is high, but usually only a few thousand microwatts per square centimeter, for example, around 3300μW/cm. This intensity is enough to make human skin feel burning. Long-term exposure may even cause sunburn, accelerate skin aging, and even increase the risk of skin cancer.

Tony's ultraviolet lamp is dozens of times more intense than the former, almost beyond the scope of human cognition.

Such high-intensity ultraviolet lamps have specific applications in industry and scientific research, such as circulating air ultraviolet disinfection machines.

The ultraviolet lamps inside this type of equipment are designed to effectively kill microorganisms in the air, including bacteria, viruses, etc., to ensure air quality and safety.

To achieve this goal, the irradiation intensity of UV lamps has been greatly increased, often exceeding 10000 μW/cm or even higher.

They spread the ultraviolet light evenly in the space through circulating airflow, achieving a rapid and thorough disinfection effect. However, even such professional equipment is difficult to compare with Tony's modified version of the Iron Man suit in terms of strength.

Tony's modification benefited from his unique arc reactor technology. This energy source not only provided him with almost unlimited energy support, but also allowed him to make bold energy allocation and innovative attempts in emergency situations.

When these ultraviolet lamps were activated, dozens of Reaper vampires were instantly exposed to such high-intensity ultraviolet rays that their bodies seemed to be engulfed by invisible flames. They let out shrill screams and then turned into nothingness. An indescribable burnt smell filled the air.

Chad Norma witnessed this scene and was horrified.

He originally thought that by using a Reaper as a shield, he could temporarily block Tony's attack and buy himself time to escape.

However, he never expected that these seemingly ordinary ultraviolet lamps would possess such terrifying power.

He quickly rolled sideways in an attempt to avoid the deadly light, but even his carefully prepared sunscreen, heavy brown coat and tight hood could not block this hellish light.

Ultraviolet rays of this intensity not only pose a deadly threat to humans and vampires, but even some advanced materials cannot withstand long-term exposure to them.

Even wearing special protective clothing cannot resist it.

The ultraviolet rays penetrated all obstacles and hit his skin directly. Although its intensity was attenuated due to the angle and distance, it was still enough to make him feel an unprecedented burning pain, as if every inch of his skin was being peeled off. His bones made crackling sounds under the irradiation of the ultraviolet rays, which was a sign of the rapid ebb of vitality.

However, his instinct for survival drove him to keep running, even though his body was collapsing rapidly and the pain in his body almost made him lose consciousness. He knew in his heart that if he stopped, only death would be waiting for him.

Reaper vampires do not feel pain, but they can feel the reaction caused by ultraviolet rays. This is the instinct of living things, reminding them to stay away from harm, otherwise they will be killed by ultraviolet rays without knowing it.

"Still want to run?"

Tony chased after him, like a large searchlight, shining indiscriminately.

Chad Norma rolled and crawled into the sewer.

"Are you a rat? How dare you crawl into the sewer?"

Tony teased, then he realized why he couldn't find the vampires.

"They're all hiding in the sewers!"

New York's underground sewer system is huge and complex, with incredibly vast interior spaces, some of which are even large enough for cars to pass through.

This place is like another world in the city, hiding countless secrets and dangers.

People don't know what's in there because many people throw pets they can't afford to keep or things they don't want to deal with into the sewer.

In addition, there are all kinds of messy things piled up here, forming an intricate ecosystem.

Tony didn't rush in.

Sewers are dangerous and complex. Once you are trapped in them, you are likely to lose your sense of direction or even encounter unpredictable dangers.

"Jarvis, add a new item."

Tony said in a deep voice, "Lock all the entrances and exits of the sewers in New York! I want to make sure these vampires have nowhere to escape."

Jarvis quickly responded to Tony's order and began to mobilize satellite and ground monitoring systems to conduct a comprehensive scan and lock of New York City's sewer system.

Each entrance and exit was accurately marked on the map, forming a huge network diagram. Tony stared at the image on the screen, and he had already made up his mind.

After Chad Norma entered the sewer, the air around him seemed to solidify, and a smell of mold and rust came to his face, accompanied by the faint sound of dripping water and the rustling of unknown creatures in the distance, creating a depressing and weird atmosphere.

Almost at the moment when he steadied his feet, it seemed as if countless pairs of eyes opened at the same time in the darkness, flashing greedy and cold light.

Hundreds and thousands of Reaper vampires, the former shadow hunters of the city, now gathered silently from all directions as if summoned by an invisible hand.
