Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 132 The Great Battle of Queens (First Update)

He had also inquired with Sun Long about the fact that practicing meditation could break through the limits of the human body.

However, Sun Long told him that this was normal and there was no need to be too surprised.

The purpose of practicing meditation is to break through human limits. Since one can achieve immortality, it is not a bad thing for the shackles of the physical body to be broken.

However, under normal circumstances, no magician would spend time specifically training their physical body, because practicing meditation and researching magic are already very time-consuming for magicians.

Besides, it's pointless for a magician to spend a lot of time training their body to be two or three times stronger than the average person; a few fireballs would still burn them to a crisp.

Most importantly, in the fundamental concept of a magician, magic is art, a pursuit, and truth; everything else is nothing in comparison.

However, Jerry didn't think so. Magic was important, but the physical body was also fundamental, and the two were complementary.

Besides, he wasn't that fanatical. To him, magic was just a kind of power, a means of protecting himself, and the strength of the physical body was the same.

Moreover, he has a superhuman mode, which greatly enhances his overall combat ability once his physical body becomes stronger.

Imagine how wonderful it would be if, just when the opponent thought you were a fragile mage and finally managed to get close to you by breaking through all your spells, you slammed down a powerful attack and sent them flying back.

Of course, in battle, you should use magic to solve problems whenever possible. Close combat should only be used as a trump card in the most critical situations.

Moreover, close combat is indeed more dangerous, and it is safer to deal with it from a distance using magic.

A week later, in the most prominent and luxurious showroom in Queens.

Jerry, Elsa, Haas, and Bailey followed Pissard and sat in the seats that had been arranged for them.

At this time, there were at least a thousand people in the entire exhibition hall. Apart from a few reporters and staff, those who could sit here were basically big shots from all walks of life in New York with money and status, and their families.

Among them were many military generals and members of parliament.

Today, Hammer Industries is going to show everyone combat robots that can replace human soldiers in battle.

If successful, it could potentially change the pattern of future warfare.

"Good evening, Miss Potts. Is Mr. Tony not coming today?"

As soon as Jerry sat down, he heard Pizarro's voice.

Turning his head, he saw Pizarro chatting with a slender blonde woman, and sitting next to her was an acquaintance.

It was the Black Widow Natasha whom Jerry had helped remove her hair with the hair-removing spell on the plane a while ago.

"Mr. Pizarro, hello. Tony has some urgent business to attend to today, so he can't make it!"

After looking at Big Pizarro, Potts immediately replied with a smile.

Pizarro is one of Stark Industries' main suppliers of raw materials and a very important partner, so Potts attaches great importance to it.

Especially now that Tony has taken a hands-off approach, she has to shoulder all the work alone. Although she is still angry, she doesn't want Stark Industries to run into problems under her leadership.

"Oh, I see. That's a real shame!"

Pizarro looked at Potts and sighed softly.

Originally, because of Tony's presence, he had absolute confidence in Stark Industries, so in terms of raw material supply, Stark Industries was given priority, and Hammer Industries was second.

But now, Tony has actually handed over the entire Stark Industries to his secretary, Virginia Pepper Potts, to manage, in addition to the many absurd things that have been reported about Tony these days.

This led him to gradually turn his attention to Hammer Industries.

If Hammer Industries' robots are really as powerful as Hammer claims, then he'll have to seriously consider future collaborations.

"Who are you all here?"

Potts looked at Bailey and Haas and the others.

"Oh, this is my daughter, Belle, and over there is his friend."

Pizarro focused on introducing his daughter, while only briefly mentioning Haas and his two companions.

At that moment, music suddenly started playing throughout the exhibition hall, and Hammer, dressed in a gray suit, danced a little dance to the center of the stage amidst applause.

He then began his impassioned speech.

The main point of the entire speech was that with his robot warriors, in the future, when wars break out, soldiers would no longer need to go to the battlefield; they could simply be controlled remotely by computers in the rear to win the war.

Jerry, sitting below, scoffed at Hammer's speech.

He has always felt that using robots to wage war is highly unreliable, because in a technologically advanced world like Marvel, there is never a strongest hacker, only a stronger one.

Using computers to control robots in wars could lead to the loss of all the robots painstakingly produced at great expense if a skilled hacker were to appear.

Halfway through the speech, rows of Hammer Industries' steel robots began to emerge from underground elevators.

There are four different branches of the military: Army, Navy, Air Force, and Special Forces. Each branch has eight robots, each nearly three meters tall, which looks very imposing.

Finally, Iron Man's friend, Colonel Rhodes, also made an appearance in the War Machine armor as ordered by the military.

However, just as the audience below erupted in applause and nodded, a red figure, dressed in gold and red, suddenly flew rapidly from afar and landed gracefully on the stage.

Upon seeing the figure appear on the stage, almost all the audience members in the exhibition hall stood up and applauded at that moment.

The war robots on the stage are indeed impressive, but they are just soulless machines. How can they be compared to Iron Man, who has a unique personal charisma and is extremely wealthy?

It wasn't until this moment that many of the bright minds in the exhibition hall realized that even if Hammer Industries' remote-controlled robot performed successfully this time, it would still be no match for Iron Man; they were simply not on the same level.

This includes Pizarro, who has also gotten up now.

Because no matter how absurd Tony's behavior was before, the moment he appeared in the Iron Man suit, he would definitely become the focus of everyone's attention.

"Huh, what's going on?"

Just as Jerry was marveling at Tony's popularity, with even his own dad, Haas, a die-hard fan, standing up to applaud, suddenly, the Hammer Industries robots and Colonel Rhodes, clad in armor, simultaneously revealed their weapons and pointed them at Tony.

This scene immediately caused panic throughout the venue.
