Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 814 The Fall of Iron Man
Thanks to the inspiration from Richter's powered exoskeleton, Tony's conception of the Iron Man suit was earlier and more complete, but the Mark series still cannot avoid an important problem, that is, how to improve performance without affecting the appearance.

As a big toy for billionaires, the Mark series focuses on appearance first, eliminating problems such as ugliness, bulkiness, and dullness. Therefore, just like Tony's other hobbies, it pursues ultimate compactness.

The Hulkbuster armor is a product of special circumstances and does not represent Tony's aesthetic taste.

But if you want to cram more functions into a limited volume, the requirements for materials and technology are too high. Even Tony cannot perfect it in such a short time. Therefore, the Mark series with different functions were developed later to cope with various situations.

As an early model, the Mark III is very classic and full of mechanical feel, but the number of weapons it carries is quite limited. In fact, even if it is fully loaded, it cannot gain any advantage except air combat when facing the larger and much improved Iron Overlord. After all, the two have different positionings, one is a big toy for the rich, and the other is a killer on the battlefield.

So facing forty-nine Iron Mongers, all Tony could do was to make an emergency landing. Any hesitation for even a second would be a disrespect for life.

There was no other way. Air defense is a very important part in modern warfare. Therefore, many modified models of Iron Overlord are equipped with advanced anti-aircraft missiles and anti-aircraft machine guns. They are not very effective in attacking fighter jets, but they are very accurate in attacking armed helicopters. Unfortunately, Tony was eager to save people and rushed into the air defense area himself.

If he had enough energy and was not in a hurry to save people, Tony would be able to use the speed and flexibility of the Iron Man suit to create a fire network, but it was too late now. He went too deep into the range of Iron Monger's anti-aircraft fire and faced the fierce anti-aircraft fire.

In order to avoid turning into fireworks in the sky, Tony can only make an emergency landing as if the plane has crashed.

In such an emergency, there was naturally no way to choose the landing posture, so the newly debuted Iron Man landed on his face and used the legendary prostate brake stunt to make a groove on the concrete floor before he stopped. However, he was forced to polish his chest and crotch, which still made him lose face. Most importantly, he had to personally take off the damaged visor that was emitting sparks, and face Pepper, who was waiting to be rescued, with his old face.

"Tony?!" Pepper looked at Tony Stark, who was lying on the ground and greeting her, in shock, not understanding why he was here.

"Oh my God, go save him!" Pepper said anxiously.

Several members of the Fallout Mobile Team have recognized each other's identity. No matter what the considerations are, they can't watch each other die in front of them, so two team members raised the bumpy metal shields and rushed over, then grabbed Iron Man's legs and dragged him to run wildly. Anyway, the other party was wearing steel armor, so there was no need to worry about him getting hurt.

"No, no, I can walk by myself." Tony, with his legs caught and facing downward, could clearly feel friction somewhere. Both pebbles and sand were defeated by his gold-titanium alloy crotch guard, and the sparks from the grinding seemed to be about to jump onto his face. His face suddenly changed and he tried to struggle, but the power output of the radiation power armor was not inferior to that of the iron suit. Trying to break free would be useless except making his crotch shinier.

After returning to the armored vehicle that served as a shelter, the medic immediately examined Tony, who looked hopeless, and the scanning device integrated into the helmet quickly came to a conclusion.

"Aside from a little low blood sugar and a few scrapes, you're pretty healthy. Do you need some energy?"

After refusing the energy bar offered by the other party, Iron Man now looks a bit miserable. His golden and red iron suit is badly damaged, with shrapnel and traces of explosions everywhere, except for the crotch which is reflective. However, he still does not change his character. He raised his hand and greeted Pepper.

"It seems I'm the only one who hasn't been notified of the party here."

"Because there's no cover girl you like here." Pepper, who was a little touched, said sarcastically. Just as the two were about to continue bickering and flirting, a grenade blew off the wheels of the armored vehicle with a bang. The members of the Radiation Mobile Team reacted quickly and immediately used their shields and bodies to block the debris for the two, and they still had enough strength to hold up the armored vehicle that was almost blown over.

But facing the Iron Monger who was pressing forward step by step, even the action team equipped with radiation-powered armor was powerless. Although the weapons they carried were targeted to a certain extent, they could not find a suitable opportunity to face the Iron Monger who outnumbered them. Instead of taking risks, it would be better to try their best to delay time and wait for support.

However, even with the scrapped armored vehicles as cover, they would not be able to hold out for long. They just hoped that the boss could support them as soon as possible.

The members of the mobile team who were at a disadvantage did not despair. They knew very well that they were only the company's superficial armed force, and they didn't even know much about the real trump card. They only knew that he was very strong, stronger than they could imagine.

"Maybe we should leave here as soon as possible." Tony could see that the combat effectiveness of Richter's people was not bad, especially the power armor, which had been updated again and solved many problems, but Iron Monger was obviously stronger, so he said with a little pride.

"No need, support will be arriving soon." Yan Xu's voice came from the intercom carried by the members of the Radiation Mobile Team.

"It seems you have been paying attention to this place." Tony is a smart man. He immediately realized that the other party was using this place as a testing ground. He felt unhappy for a moment, but he was more curious about what Richter Company would come up with to deal with the current situation. You know, there are dozens of fully equipped Iron Overlords, which are enough to fight against an armored brigade.

Although he didn't say it, Tony knew very well that the inspiration for the Iron Man suit came from Richter's powered exoskeleton, mainly the primary power armor. Therefore, he, who was proud and arrogant, couldn't help feeling awkward.

This is also the reason why Tony invented and designed Iron Monger, just to stand out from the crowd.

I have to say that sometimes men’s desire to win is always used in strange ways.

But this is also a kind of recognition. You know, Tony has never regarded Hammer Industries as an opponent because the other party is not worthy at all.

In Tony's eyes, the ability to maximize the performance of the powered exoskeleton to the point where he could not change anything must mean that their technical level was definitely more than what they had shown, and the radiation powered armor equipped by the mobile team obviously confirmed his guess.

This set of power armor reflects the consistent style of Richter Company. It may not be comprehensive enough, but it has achieved the ultimate on the existing basis.

Even Tony can only make improvements by replacing better materials and using his own patented technology, but this is obviously difficult to mass-produce. Both the production difficulty and cost will make it unaffordable for buyers.

It is because he understands the technical content that Tony is more curious about what hidden cards Richter Company has.
