I evolve infinitely in the Marvel world...

Chapter 166 I Don't Understand

Then, more than five months passed quietly since the last Destroyer attack, and the year became 2012.

It took Tony more than three months and countless tests to finally get the first vibranium armor working.

Tony also sprayed the vibranium armor with gold and red paint, but compared to the Iron Man armor...

The Vibranium Armor is taller, standing at 2.5 meters, and its biggest difference lies in its pair of specially made, enormous red gauntlets and a two-meter-long scarlet giant axe on its back.

The gauntlets' primary function is to allow him to unleash void rays, while their secondary function is to enable him to engage in melee combat.

The large axe is mainly used to destroy larger objects, making it more convenient.

Of course, these additions brought the overall weight of the vibranium armor to ten tons.

Even though the thrusters Tony developed were incredibly powerful, they were limited by the special requirements for their manufacture.

Therefore, even at full speed, Tony's vibranium armor could only reach a hundred meters per second.

Tony could only reach the speed of sound if he unloaded the more than three-ton axe.

Compared to the Mach 6 speed of the Iron Man armor, the difference is like heaven and earth, but Tony had expected this.

Vibranium armor isn't known for its agility; its main purpose is to be tough and strong.

It was only because Tony's physical body was strong enough and his stamina was amazing that he was able to wear this vibranium armor.

If someone's physical body wasn't strong enough, it would be questionable whether they could even lift the three-ton crimson giant axe, let alone use it in combat.

It's important to understand that raising a weapon and fighting with a weapon are completely different concepts.

Even without using weapons, Tony could easily shatter most objects with a single impact simply by activating his vibranium armor in charge mode.

During this period, Blue Star was relatively calm, except for the daily gunfights in New York.

Before Tony knew it, the New Year had arrived, making him wonder why Harvey had said he couldn't get away for the time being.

“Jarvis, you said Harvey said I can’t get away from Earth for the time being.”

"Does this include the research I'm going to do on vibranium?"

As the new year of 2012 approached, Tony became increasingly uneasy and began seeking validation and answers from Jarvis.

“I don’t think so. You know Mr. Harvey is incredibly resourceful.”

"Knowing countless things that even I don't understand, since you said you can't get away for the time being, it's definitely not about research."

Jarvis understood Mr. Tony's feelings.

Although Miss Pepper is becoming more and more beautiful and is very close to Mr. Tony.

This allowed Mr. Tony to live a life of debauchery every night, but given Mr. Tony's past reputation for womanizing...

If he could, Mr. Tony would definitely like to try wildflowers.

However, even if he wanted to try wildflowers, Mr. Tony didn't dare to look for them on Earth.

Even though Miss Pepper knew Mr. Tony's true nature, she turned a blind eye to his behavior of seeking out wildflowers.

But at most, that was Miss Pepper allowing Mr. Tony to look for some wildflowers while he was in space.

This can be seen from the fact that Miss Pepper didn't ask Mr. Tony any detailed questions about things in the universe.

He can be carefree in the outside world (universe), but at home (on Earth), Mr. Tony must be more honest and dutiful.

You have to understand that while Miss Pepper's current strength is not as good as Mr. Tony's, Mr. Tony would definitely win if they fought.

But if Miss Pepper gets angry, she could tear the manor apart in no time, and if that gets out of hand, it'll be a laughing stock.

After Mr. Tony created the vibranium armor, he privately told him many times that he wanted to go to space for a spin.

He wanted to go find Renoir and Kyle to show off his latest technology and, incidentally, breathe some fresh air.

However, because of what Mr. Harvey said, Mr. Tony didn't dare to leave Earth casually, worried that something might happen to Earth.

"I hope so. It's quite frustrating to create the latest technology but have nowhere to use it."

Tony sighed upon hearing this and spoke.

Throughout the year, Sonia gave him the money he was owed every three months.

The previous three times, he basically had no money coming in because he needed to pay off debts to Harvey.

But now, at the start of the new year, the fourth payment has arrived, totaling over 700 million.

The money in the universe is worth far more than the money on Earth. With these 700 million, he could live a life of debauchery and have countless women in the universe.

But he didn't dare leave, a feeling that frustrated Tony immensely.

Harvey, on the other hand, was thrilled. Freed from his Kassadin identity, he lived a life of unbridled pleasure on Earth.

Moreover, while Harvey was known for his womanizing, he also had a good reputation. Most people who had received his help spoke highly of him.

Tony overheard this from time to time and couldn't have been more envious.

It's a good thing to have Pepper join the Void; he'll have a loving wife who will be with him for many years to come.

The downside is that he has to restrain his restless desire to sneak out and have a meal with Pepper.

“Mr. Harvey said that now is not the time for you to leave with peace of mind.”

"Please wait a little longer."

Jarvis, seeing his husband like this, offered words of comfort.

"Yes, I'll start researching nanotechnology after today."

Tony nodded when he heard Jarvis's words.

Now that Tony has studied the Vibranium armor, not only has his strength become more comprehensive, but his skills have also improved by leaps and bounds.

Now that he has the vibranium armor for direct combat, he will definitely evolve the steel armor into nano armor to make his methods more diverse.

The path of science and technology has an end, because wisdom and time are finite, and reaching the end is not something that ordinary people can do.

Even after conquering the nanotech armor, Tony has only temporarily completed his current level of self-improvement.

He still has a lot of technology to research if he wants to lead Earth into the interstellar age.

An ordinary person might choose to give up after thinking about these things, but Tony joined the Void in the hope of having a longer lifespan to explore the limits of technology.

As 2012 approached, Harvey, while routinely scanning the area around New York, still couldn't find Banner.

Although Banner is a super genius like Tony, his life is more tragic compared to Tony's.

Moreover, Banner's personality is different from Tony's.

If Tony had obtained the Hulk's power.

Tony would definitely choose to control the power within him, rather than fearing the Hulk like Banner did, and even trying to kill the Hulk by committing suicide.

To be honest, Harvey didn't understand Bruce Banner's thinking at all. After all, Banner wasn't even afraid of death, so why wasn't he willing to try to accept and control the power within him?

Chapter 167 The Beginning of the Avengers' Assembly

Power itself is neither good nor bad; it is only the user who makes it good. If the user does good, it is good; if the user does evil, it is evil.

Many people, when faced with certain situations, yearn to have power, yet cannot.

Harvey knew Banner was kind-hearted and didn't want to cause trouble.

That's precisely why Banner should be thinking about how to control this force, rather than constantly suppressing his anger.

Having great power is something many people dream of, but Banner is running away from it.

He can find Banner at any time, but now is not the best time for him to contact Banner; he needs to wait a little longer.

Anyway, once Bruce Banner returns, Loki will definitely come back with the Mind Stone, so there's no rush.

I wonder if Loki will still dare to be so arrogant after seeing him destroy the Destroyer this time.

However, given Loki's tendency to be easily swayed by petty ambitions, maintaining his flamboyant nature is not impossible.

Harvey, deep in thought, began to anticipate Loki's possible actions.

Captain America, Steve Rogers, was provoked by Tony.

For so long, they have been training like crazy.

His strength has now reached five tons, which is more than twice as strong as before.

Although he didn't know when he would see Tony again.

However, Steve was also holding back a lot of anger.

The next time he sees Tony, he'll definitely show him the difference between flesh and machines.

Time flies, and March has arrived in the blink of an eye.

In S.H.I.E.L.D.'s underground secret laboratory.

This Tesseract has been with S.H.I.E.L.D. for some time now.

However, he lacked the talent to conduct the research. Now, with the recruitment of Dr. Eric, he has finally made some progress in the research on the Cosmic Cube.

However, the originally stable Cosmic Cube suddenly began to become unstable.

Therefore, Nick Fury came to check on the Cosmic Cube.

"Doctor, what happened?"

Nick Fury asked the question as soon as he arrived.

"Director, the Cosmic Cube has activated automatically for some unknown reason, and we cannot predict its current state."

Dr. Eric spoke up upon hearing this.

Are you kidding me?

Nick Fury countered with a question.

“This joke is not funny at all, Chief.”

Eric didn't hesitate when he heard this and spoke directly.
