He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 125 The Rampage Robot (First Update)

The following evening, in the plaza outside the Queens Grand Exhibition Hall.

Luxury cars lined the entrance to the showroom; most of New York's wealthiest businessmen and political figures had come here today.

In addition, reporters from major newspapers also did not miss this grand event, and the flashes of cameras never stopped.

In the square, a large number of ordinary citizens, attracted by the flyers, had also gathered. They were not eligible to enter the exhibition hall, but they could still learn about what was happening inside through a large projection screen in the square.

Moreover, due to the large flow of people, many small vendors gather here, such as clowns selling balloons, and various food trucks selling ice cream, hamburgers, and drinks.

So it was quite lively.

The citizens in the square outside weren't particularly interested in Hammer Industries' new products in the exhibition hall; they were mainly there to join in the fun and wait for the fireworks display to end.

Among these mobile groups were Li Chuan, Wanda, May, and Peter.

"Honey, it looks like it's about to start inside!"

Wanda pulled Li Chuan aside and pointed to the large external screen in front of the exhibition hall.

The large screen, which was playing a video about the history of Hammer Industries, suddenly stopped and then switched to the view of the main stage in the exhibition hall.

In the camera's view, Justin Hammer confidently strode to the center of the stage, performing practiced dance steps.

At this moment, the citizens outside were also attracted by the screen and turned their attention to it.

Hammer picked up the microphone and began to speak eloquently:

"Ladies and gentlemen, for a long time our country has relied on brave soldiers to risk their lives in battle. Then Iron Man appeared, and we thought we no longer needed to sacrifice lives. But he selfishly refused to share his advanced technology, which is a great pity."

The camera then pans to Tony, who is sitting in the first row below, with Pepper Potts carrying his portable Iron Man suit. Tony gives a very friendly smile and flips the middle finger at Hammer on the stage.

Hammer's expression changed slightly upon seeing this, but he immediately smiled and said:

"It's alright, friends. We Hammer Industries are no worse than Stark Industries. Today, the major newspapers are in big trouble because they will run out of ink."

Next, I will introduce you to a brand new face in the U.S. military—the Hammer Steel Soldiers!

As Hammer turned around, a large spotlight shone on the right side of the stage, and eight all-metal steel robots, each three meters tall, immediately rose up below the stage.

"This is the Army's steel robot, and the one below is the Navy's steel robot!"

Hammer directed the spotlight to move to the left, and eight more robots with slightly different designs rose from below the stage.

"Finally, the Air Force's steel robots and the Marine Corps' robots!"

Sixteen robots rose simultaneously from both sides at the front of the stage.

This scene immediately drew gasps from most of the audience, and even Tony, who had been sitting in the front row expecting a laugh, frowned.

Tony knew that with Hammer Industries' technological capabilities, it was impossible to create the robots on stage that looked so capable.

"Hammer Industries reports to the nation!"

Justin Hammer stood in front of everyone and gave a somewhat imperfect military salute, which was simultaneously saluted by all the robots behind him.

"Without Colonel Rhodes, it seems Tony hasn't sent the war machine out yet."

Outside, Li Chuan looked at the screen and realized why the War Machine suit hadn't appeared.

Tony originally thought he was about to die, which is why he pretended to have a falling out with Rhodes and let him take the War Machine.

But now that Li Chuan can cure the poison, he doesn't need to worry about palladium poisoning. In addition, the government and military have been putting pressure on him, so he naturally can't give away the War Machine suit now.

"Da da da da da!"

Just as Hammer Industries' robots were temporarily pushing the atmosphere to a climax, all thirty-two robots simultaneously activated their weapons and fired a burst of bullets at the top of the exhibition hall.

The roof of the exhibition hall was made of transparent glass. When it was strafed by thirty-two machine guns, it could not withstand the fire and instantly turned into countless shards of glass that crashed down below.

Upon seeing this, the wealthy socialites, military and political figures below screamed in terror and scrambled to escape from the exhibition hall.

"Chili, it's dangerous here. Go find Happy first."

Sensing something was wrong, Tony grabbed the portable Iron Man suit and quickly put it on while giving instructions to Pepper.

Little Chili knew she wasn't of any help here, so she quickly nodded and followed everyone as they fled outside.

At that moment, seeing Tony had donned his Iron Man suit, the robots all aimed their weapons at him.

"Justin Hammer, I know you want to kill me, but there's no need to be so stupid!"

Tony's sarcastic voice came from the Iron Man suit.

Hammer, looking flustered, replied to the robots:

"No, no, I didn't do this. How could I do such a thing? It must be Vanke. He created all these robots. Only he could seize control!"

Killing Tony in front of so many people would be impossible unless he's insane.

If the robot soldier demonstration is successful today, Hammer Industries can rise to prominence, secure a large number of orders, and surpass Stark Industries in one fell swoop. He has no need to do these self-destructive things.

"Looks like I'd better run away first!"

After extracting useful information from Hammer, Tony immediately activated his suit and quickly rose into the air, dodging the salvo from thirty-two robots.

Since it's Ivan Vanko who's behind this, the target is definitely him seeking revenge for his father. As long as he leaves, the people here will be safer.

Of course, the main reason is that his suit is a portable battle suit. In order to be quick to put on and easy to carry, the armor's defensive capabilities are much lower than those of a normal battle suit.

Moreover, apart from the pulse cannons in his palms and chest, he was not equipped with any other weapons. He definitely couldn't win in a head-on confrontation, so he could only escape first and think of other ways.

"Mei, my friend will take you home safely, don't worry."

Everything that happened inside the exhibition hall was seen by the citizens outside the hall through the big screen. At this point, no one wanted to wait to watch the fireworks display anymore, and they all fled the place as if their lives depended on it.

Li Chuan, who had anticipated this, called over his mistress, who was already waiting by the roadside in her car, and asked her to send Mei and Peter away first.

"Wanda, our target today is much tougher than usual, so be careful not to get hurt."

Seeing Mei and Peter leave, Li Chuan took out his wand and cast a spell on his clothes, instantly transforming into a dark wizard.

"I'm very strong!"

Wanda confidently turned around on the spot, transforming into the Scarlet Witch in a red leather jacket and cape.
