A certain U.S. Military Base.
"General, I'm very sorry, Iron Man's Mark IV is too perfect. Aerial combat, long-range, close-quarters combat—it's almost impregnable. Even the strongest soldier, equipped with the latest individual exoskeleton and the strongest individual firepower, stands no chance against Iron Man!"
"To defeat Iron Man, you'd need at least a company with a large amount of heavy weaponry!"
A scientist in a white coat said tremblingly, and behind him stood a row of equally dejected scientists.
Each of them hung their heads, like defeated roosters.
Defeating Iron Man with a company clearly didn't et the requirents of the Martial Arts Tournant.
Actually, there was sothing else this scientist didn't say.
A company, when facing Iron Man, would basically be serving themselves up.
Iron Man isn't a target that just takes hits without fighting back!
The General's na was Chris Lennox. Not long ago, General Ross was impeached and forced to resign because of Abomination.
Chris Lennox was a rising star who ascended by stepping on Ross. A new official takes office with three fires, and General Lennox was full of ambition, determined to achieve great things.
At this opportune mont, Iron Man Tony Stark held a Martial Arts Tournant, and the final victor would take Stark's latest Mark Five.
Lennox was incredibly excited, as if he had been injected with a stimulant.
He imdiately gathered weapon experts, tactical experts, material experts, chanical power experts, and a series of other specialists, who spent nearly half a month researching before and after.
But ideals were full, and reality was Stark; a ladle of cold water poured over him chilled him to the bone.
Lennox's face was ashen, and he roared, "All the data for the Mark series is here, even so blueprints for Mark One and Iron Monger!"
"I didn't ask you to design a new set of Iron Armor from scratch, and I even omitted the most difficult power supply technology. All I asked was for you to design a plan to defeat Iron Man based on the Mark IV data, that's all!"
"Hundreds of you experts, spanning all high-end fields, can't even compare to one Tony Stark?"
"And there's the Silver Armored War God's Wind God. Stark can do it, the Silver Armored War God can do it. Even if humanoid ch technology is difficult, shouldn't there only be a one-generation gap with current cutting-edge technology?"
The lead scientist raised his head and said, "Sorry, General, not every scientist is nad Tony Stark. Also, I think you misunderstand the Silver Armored War God. Tony's technology can still be explained by modern science, but much of the Silver Armored War God's technology cannot be scientifically explained. We can't even begin to research it!"
""
Lennox slamd the door shut and stord out, sowhat exasperated.
Shit, everyone fell for Tony Stark's trick!
The humanoid ch technology is too advanced. Can individual combat really defeat him?
Perhaps it's true, as the dia reported, that Tony Stark never took the Military seriously.
His only enemies are the Silver Armored War God and his Wind God!
The so-called "World's First Martial Arts Tournant" is Iron Man's challenge declaration to the Silver Armored War God!
Just then, a lieutenant colonel leaned close to General Lennox and whispered, "General, I think you might have gone down the wrong path. Defeating Iron Man isn't as difficult as you imagine."
Lennox was imdiately very surprised. Had his thinking gone astray?
"Tell more!"
The lieutenant colonel imdiately smiled, "General, without that Iron Armor, Tony Stark is just an ordinary person. You might want to visit Alcatraz Prison!"
Alcatraz Prison?
General Lennox narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.
He certainly knew Alcatraz Prison. The reason it was called "Alcatraz" was because it housed only the most heinous criminals.
As well as various non-humans!
Moscow.
Referencing Tony's Arc Reactor and various docunts left by his father, Anton Vanko.
Ivan Vanko successfully designed the Vanko-version Arc Reactor, and two electric whips were also developed!
The equipnt was almost complete, and he didn't secretly get a visa and plane ticket from the black market like in the movie.
If he wanted to, he could challenge Tony Stark and settle the score at any ti!
But Whiplash didn't.
He also possessed full-coverage tal exoskeleton heavy war armor technology!
It was in the blueprints his father, Anton Vanko, left him. Its na was Crimson Armor!
Since Tony Stark arrogantly held the Martial Arts Tournant, he would challenge him openly and fairly.
He wanted to prove to everyone in the World that Tony Stark was a Joker, and his father, Howard Stark, was a shaless thief.
He would take back everything he had lost!
Pierce led the way, and several HYDRA mbers quietly t again.
Looking at the red ruby placed in the box, everyone's breathing quickened.
This red ruby was famous; whoever possessed it almost had endless power.
But this red ruby was extrely mysterious. S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists had studied it for several years without any breakthrough.
As for the principle by which it granted power, they knew nothing.
Moreover, this red ruby didn't acknowledge everyone; ordinary people holding it experienced no reaction.
If not for top-secret docunts recording that this red ruby was once the source of the Red Tank's power, everyone would have doubted if this record was a rumor.
But everyone knew it was true!
The Universe is too vast, too mysterious; no one knows how many unsolved mysteries it still holds.
Pierce knew that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mysterious items alone numbered no less than a hundred.
For example, the Tesseract.
Back then, Red Skull used the Tesseract to develop unprecedented energy weapons, almost sweeping across Europe.
If Captain Arica and his Howling Commandos hadn't ambushed them midway, the war situation might have been different.
There was also the mysterious Obelisk, which S.H.I.E.L.D. kept highly secretive about.
It was too mysterious; its exterior was seamless, it could disable all electronic devices, and it could turn humans into stone, making it very bizarre.
Pierce: "The red ruby has been brought out. Your mission is to find soone who can trigger its power. I don't care what thods you use, find that person, then defeat Tony Stark, and bring back the Mark Five!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Hail HYDRA!"
"Hail HYDRA!"
The champion's prize was the Mark Five; this bait was simply too tempting.
Not only the Military and HYDRA, but even minor gangs developed a strong interest.
And the Russian mafia in New York not only considered it but also took practical action.
One of their enforcers, nad Aleksei Mikhailovich Sisyevich, succumbed to the temptation of money after a series of inducents from the Russian mafia boss, and ultimately accepted a high-risk chemical radiation experint.
The most bizarre thing was that he actually succeeded!
After a layer of strong polyr adhered to his body, Sisyevich beca impervious to blades and bullets, and could also withstand extre heat and cold.
In a strength test, Sisyevich knocked down a building with a single headbutt!
Since then, Sisyevich earned a new nickna, "Rhino"!
