BONUS Chapter brought to you by KingSpy25i, enjoy!
“Wait, Stark!”
Fury finally panicked, God only knows if Tony is merely playing with him.
“You should calm down!”
“I am very calm right now.”
Tony hadn’t put down his palm cannon, but the energy accumulation did temporarily stop.
Fury and Natasha breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that things had not yet reached their worst.
The Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. is not a simple government official after all. If he were to be killed, the consequences will be severe, even a wealthy capitalist family, such as the Starks.
“Give back my father’s things!”
Tony shouted loudly as his other hand pointed at the safe.
“Okay, okay, this was originally meant for you, you don’t actually need to be this excited.”
Fury tried to speak to Tony in a calm tone.
He slowly put his hand on the safe and pushed hard.
The safe slid from the side of the table that was in front of Fury to the opposite direction, Tony’s side of the table.
And Because the table where Tony was sitting had been hammered to pieces by him, there was a crack splitting the two sides. However, that crack was not that big.
A seemingly random push can make the safe stop securely on the opposite edge of the table, specifically in front of Tony’s side.
Fury’s strength is both ingenious and precise.
“Hmph, go play your Avengers game yourself, I don’t want to see S.H.I.E.L.D. agents appearing in Stark Industries anymore!”
“Including Coulson!”
Tony snorted coldly, picked up the safe, and left. But instead of going out from the front door, he directly smashed the glass facade of the fast-food restaurant.
Tony walked outside wearing his battlesuit, making heavy footsteps.
“Boom!”
With the sonic boom issued when the steel suit thrusters had started, Tony quickly disappeared into the sky.
Fury sat on the seat with a gloomy face, with very scattered thoughts.
Natasha put the pistol away; no fight did happen. For her, this is the best result.
Unfortunately, from today onwards, she has completely entered Tony’s blacklist.
Looking at the glass facade shattered after Tony left, Natasha wondered if there would be any possibility of repairing the relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Stark in the future.
Because all the information sent by Phantom Kid to Tony is true, S.H.I.E.L.D. Scientists have been committed to solving the mystery left by Howard for so many years, but unfortunately, there has been no result so far.
And if they had made any small progress in research, Fury would not have let Tony know that Howard discovered the existence of the new element.
Nevertheless, the temptation to discover the new element was too great, how can S.H.I.E.L.D. hold their greed?!
Fury’s loss today was not small; what was left of Howard was nothing, in fact, it was Iron Man’s loss of trust in S.H.I.E.L.D. That was the biggest loss.
The Avengers Alliance project has just begun. Fury was originally confident that Tony would join voluntarily, but he encountered a big obstacle at the beginning.
Natasha secretly glanced at her boss with sympathy. As the only level ten agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., she has authority over a lot of information.
Therefore, no one knows better than Natasha how much Fury has invested in the Avengers project, how much planning he has made, and how he secretly carried out this project under the pressure of the World Security Council.
It now appears that the Council’s opposition to this plan is not unreasonable.
After all, even their best of plans to fool Tony, the best recruit, with his father’s relics has already failed.
Other alternatives are the huge green-skinned monster; the hammer-wielding blond alien; that ghost wandering around in a black suit; the tattooed man who likes to stab unmanned submarines with his fork in the deep seas…
These guys are even less likely to accept S.H.I.E.L.D.’s invitation…
The only one who may join the Avengers unconditionally is estimated to be only Captain America.
It’s a pity that this guy is still sleeping under the glacier. Before the expedition discovered him by accident, Fury had no idea that Steve Rogers was actually not dead.
Just as Natasha was considering whether to encourage her boss, she suddenly felt a heat wave.
In an instant, her face became pale.
This hot wind of course blew in from the glass wall that Tony had smashed, blowing right past Fury and ending up in Natasha’s place.
This does not seem to be a problem, it is a very normal phenomenon of air circulation.
But the problem is that Fury was in front of Natasha!
When the heat wave hit, it also brought an unspeakable smell from Fury at the same time…
Tony brought back the safe to the Stark Mansion.
He couldn’t wait to open the safe, although he didn’t have time to ask Fury what the safe’s code was.
But this is not even a problem for Tony.
Jarvis cracked the code of the safe at random.
However, when Tony opened the safe, he was suddenly stunned.
There was only one videotape in it, marked with the number “1967”.
“The first Stark Technology Expo was held in 1967…”
Tony’s eyes condensed. He took out the videotape and prepared it for Jarvis to play it.
“Sorry, sir, this is a videotape made in the 1960s. It is not compatible with our existing playback system.”
Since when did our advanced technology become so flawed?
In desperation, Tony had to rummage through the boxes, hoping to find an old video cassette player.
But again, how could the Stark Tower, which had been completed this year, have products from the last century?
“Jarvis, hurry up and ask someone to buy a video cassette player and bring it up to me. Forget it, I’ll be quicker by myself. prepare my battle suit!”
Tony said.
“Sorry, sir, although this videotape was made in the last century, it is a custom-made item and can only be played with a dedicated video cassette player. There is no such video cassette player currently on the market.”
Tony: “…”
So, Tony had to take the video tape back to his sea view villa, hoping to find one of these things in the storage room at home.
Fortunately, he moved all the things left by his parents to the villa, and finally pulled out a dilapidated video cassette player from the debris.
Tony set it up and played the videotape.
“Ladies and gentlemen, look behind me, this is the design model of the Stark Tech Expo, the city of the future as I envision.”
“This will be the key to unlock the future.”
At an instant, when the scene came out, Tony frowned.
Because this is the video of Howard introducing the expo, not some top-secret material.
Not only Tony, but many people around the world have this video.
