However, with so many years to come, he dared not say that he would never encounter anything that would leave him with deep regrets; this self-awareness was very important.

"I see, I understand now."

"I'll throw a celebration party first and treat Kyle and the others to a good meal."

Tony's eyes flickered when he heard Harvey's seemingly Versailles-like but somewhat cautious words, and he spoke up.

He looked at Harvey the way countless other people on Earth looked at him.

The people on Earth thought he had achieved great fame and fortune and could live a carefree and leisurely life every day, but in reality, he also had his troubles.

If he fails to stop that formidable enemy from coming in the future, it will become his regret.

He felt that Harvey was omnipotent and his strength was unfathomable, and that all difficulties would be easily resolved.

But in reality, if Harvey doesn't say it out loud, no one will know if Harvey is also troubled by something.

"Go."

Harvey saw Tony's eyes regain their clarity and his return to enjoying the moment, and knowing that Tony was no longer controlled by pressure, he nodded.

Tony then left immediately.

Sonia and Harvey were left inside the villa.

"Mr. Kassadin, are you also planning to visit Earth in a few days?"

After seeing Mr. Tony leave, Sonia spoke up.

"Yes, I'll go there and stay for a while in a few days."

"But you can contact me anytime."

Harvey did not deny it upon hearing this.

“Okay, I will keep an eye on Void Isle while you are away, Mr. Kassadin.”

Sonia knew that it wasn't yet time for Mr. Kassadin to decide to stay on Xandar indefinitely, so she wasn't too disappointed.

"Sonia, I've always trusted you completely."

Harvey showed no concern whatsoever upon hearing this.

Sonia's abilities have been fully recognized by him.

"I'm delighted to hear Mr. Kassadin say that. I'll go and make some preparations."

Sonia smiled upon hearing this and spoke.

Sonia then went to investigate what information was available about people involved in the creation of space technology.

Although Mr. Tony hasn't given her the most detailed list yet, it's still very useful to do your research beforehand.

After all, it's impossible to hire laymen who have absolutely no knowledge of the relevant field to do it.

Chapter 262 Since the person is dead, let's not dwell on it.

Tony hosted a three-day celebration party.

He then told Miss Sonia everything about the required personnel, equipment, and procedures.

At the same time, Tony also transferred five billion dollars directly to ensure that Miss Sonia wouldn't be unable to find someone to start work immediately due to insufficient funds.

Once the production line is up and running, he will have even more money, so Tony doesn't care about this little bit of money at all.

Sonia also developed six other islands, dividing the process of creating space jump technology into six islands.

Preventing workers on the various islands from having frequent contact with the information is a process that must be carefully managed to avoid the leakage of core information.

After completing these tasks, Sonia met with some of her previous major clients again to inform them that Tony Stark had developed a space wormhole jump technology.

Furthermore, all performance parameters met the market standard, which was clearly communicated to them.

Dealing with other people requires building relationships, but trading with the Void Island avoids this process and deliveries are much faster.

Therefore, Tony Stark's technology is still very popular.

The market price for wormhole jumping technology in the same space ranges from 30 million to 40 million.

However, Tony's selling price ranges from twenty to thirty million.

After all, arms dealers need to pay for a lot of research and development personnel, as well as various departments that need to operate, and in addition, their products are unique, so the prices remain high.

However, Tony's research funding relies entirely on his own intellect.

There's no need to pay such huge research fees, nor to deal with so many people.

At most, the profits will be split 50/50 with Harvey, so as long as the funds are quickly recovered, you can start making money continuously.

Moreover, these are not the most advanced technologies. He will develop the most advanced space wormhole jumping technology in another year or two.

If we develop space jump technology with higher performance than what's currently on the market, we can increase the selling price.

However, now that Tony knows Earth is about to be in turmoil again, he doesn't have much time for development and research.

So Tony supervised the project for over a month and, after seeing that none of the three different versions of the samples produced had any problems with their performance, he...

In early September 2013.

Tony was relieved to have Lalatina take care of these matters.

Tony, carrying a large amount of alien technology, materials, and books he had bought from various places, embarked on his journey back to Earth.

He hadn't forgotten that he still needed to research the propulsion system.

Conditions on Earth aren't ideal, but they are still suitable for conducting some theoretical research.

Because Tony developed the wormhole jumping technology himself, the return journey time has been greatly shortened.

With just twenty-seven small incidents, Tony successfully returned to Earth.

The space wormhole jump technology available on the market is certainly not the best among all civilizations.

After all, the best ones are definitely from the military of various civilizations, and ordinary people can't get their hands on them.

Harvey explained the situation to Sonia and then went back to Earth to watch the show.

When Tony returned to Earth, he immediately hugged Pepper, and the two became intimate.

After their passionate confession, Tony heard some unexpected news from Pepper.

Who is Killian?

Tony gently stroked Pepper's smooth, delicate skin with his right hand and asked.

"Aldrich Killian, president of the Super Intelligence Agency, originally wanted to come and talk to me about some collaborations."

“He studies biotechnology, and I could tell that he had already injected himself with that drug.”

"So I secretly followed and investigated him, which made him far more powerful than ordinary people."

"Killian has discovered that he has developed something called the Extremis virus."

"If the injection is successful, not only can the severed limbs be restored, but the person will also have a very strong body and be able to control certain fire abilities."

Pepper Potts nestled in Tony's arms and recounted some of the things that had happened to her.

As for Killian's intention to seduce her, Pepper didn't specifically mention it, otherwise Tony would definitely be furious if he found out.

"Extremis virus, huh? The effects sound pretty good, but the name doesn't sound like a good thing."

Are there any side effects?

Tony listened and said thoughtfully.

"Of course there are, not only injections, but also injections have a high failure rate."

"Furthermore, continuous injections are required to maintain the condition, which leads to increasing instability in the body and makes it a type of poison."

Pepper nodded upon hearing this and spoke.

"Where is he now? Did you kill him?"

Seeing that Pepper had already investigated this information, Tony asked.

"Yes, I discovered that he has been carrying out terrorist attacks in various places."

"So I killed him casually, destroyed his organization, and rescued some people."

Pepper chuckled softly upon hearing this.

She certainly wouldn't say that she would kill Killian because Killian lured her to a place, intending to force himself on her and inject her with the Extremis virus.

And they say they like themselves and want to break free from human limitations, and other such nonsense.

That's why she stopped hiding her strength and killed Killian directly.

But none of that matters, because Killian is already dead, and deliberately saying it would only make Tony angry.

"It's a pity that he has great talent, but he chose the wrong path."

When Tony heard that Killian was using the Extremis virus to carry out terrorist attacks, although he didn't know the full story, he knew that this was intolerable.

Even if Pepper doesn't kill Killian, if Steve receives the message, Killian definitely won't be able to escape.

"He does have considerable talent, but he definitely chose the wrong path."

"And for some reason, he seems to hate you."

Upon hearing this, Pepper spoke up, saying that her killing of Killian was also related to this reason.

"Does Killian seem to hate me a little?"

"why?"

Tony asked, somewhat puzzled.

"If you don't know, then I know even less."

"But I had this feeling when I was in contact with him."

"Because he really wanted to prove himself, he even said he would offer me a higher salary than you offered me, hoping to hire me."

"He seems to want to prove that he's better than you."

Pepper rolled her eyes at Tony and said irritably.
