Chapter 14

"Whether the future of air combat is manned or unmanned, I would say that in my experience, no unmanned air vehicle can surpass the instinctive reaction of the pilot. The insight cultivated by the pilot's long training Power, the ability to observe the situation deeply through Miao Mian and foresee some consequences, or a pilot's judgment."

At the Air Force base, Colonel Rhodes was leading a group of Air Force recruits on a tour of the hangar, while imparting to them his experience as an ace pilot.

"Colonel, then... why can't we create a co-pilot who doesn't fly the plane?"

"Look at this man who 'fell from the sky', Mr. Tony Stark." Rhodes introduced Tony, who interrupted him, to the recruits.

"When it comes to carrying people or not, you have to listen to the time when he made a mistake in judgment. It was the beginning of spring, remember clearly, the beginning of spring of 1987. The lady on your bed..." Tony did not end his troublemaking behavior. Keep trying to expose your friends.

"Tony, don't be like this-" Rhode interrupted quickly in embarrassment.

"What's her name? Is it Ivan?"

"They will believe it, don't talk nonsense." Rhodes reminded again, he didn't want to lose face in front of the recruits.

"Well, nice to meet you." Tony stopped his joke just in time.

"Guys, go take a look around by yourself first, we need to talk alone."

Watching the recruits walk away, Rhodes patted Tony on the shoulder, "I'm surprised, man!"

"Why?"

"I swear, I didn't expect to see you walking like flying so soon."

“I can do more than just walk.”

"Really?" Rhodes was a little doubtful.

"Yes. Rod, I'm doing something big. I came here to tell you in the hope that you can join me."

Rhodes nodded perfunctorily, but did not give a definite answer: "You could have made these people really happy, because your [accident] at the press conference was very telling. .”

"This isn't for the military, I'm not...this is different."

Rhodes looked at Tony, who was a bit unfamiliar, with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong? Have you become a humanitarian now?"

"I hope you can listen carefully to my plan first..."

Before Tony could finish speaking, Rhodes interrupted him: "No need. What you need now is to get your brain back to normal. I'm serious!"

"Okay." Tony smiled perfunctorily.

"Nice to meet you Tony." After speaking, Rhodes turned around and continued his unfinished work.

"Thank you." Tony felt a little disappointed with his friend Rhodes' incomprehension, but this did not make him give up the plan in his heart. "It seems that I still have to ask Mark for help."

"Mark, come out here, I'll see you if I need anything!" Tony worked vigorously and called Mark's name as soon as he got home.

Ever since he escaped from the hands of terrorists with his crude Mark 1, he had had this plan in his mind. Now, apart from the progress with Pepper, what Tony is most concerned about is the plan that is about to be executed. Even the company The future development of the company has been thrown aside by him.

Hearing his father's call, Mark walked out of the room sleepily wearing plush pajamas, "What are you doing, Dad. I didn't go to bed until 4 o'clock last night."

"Four o'clock? What did you do last night? And it's already 12 noon for you. According to the eight hours of sleep a teenager gets every day, it's time for you to get up."

"Well, who made this house yours? Fortunately, I stayed up late last night to help you eliminate the shrapnel in your chest. Hey, your kindness goes unpaid!"

"Huh!?" After hearing Mark's words, Tony immediately became interested. What he was interested in was not whether the shrapnel in his chest could be removed, because he knew the high risks involved, and at this stage, when everything was controllable, He wasn't willing to risk it; what he was really interested in was the new gadget Mark had come up with.

You must know that Mark has not put any effort into medicine. Even when he was developing the private health consultant Dabai, all the medical data was compiled with the help of Jarvis. Now that Mark said he has a way to clear the shrapnel in his chest , then we must have found a direction in other technologies.

"What new thing have you come up with? Take it out and show it to me!"

"Don't you have something to do with me?"

"There's no rush, no rush, let's see what you make first." Mark's new invention is more attractive to Tony than the unknown plan that has not yet yielded results. After all, Tony In his heart, he has recognized that Mark is a genius beyond himself, although it is impossible to say it with his mouth.

"Okay, but it's impossible to take it out. Come into the room with me and I'll show you." Mark turned around and walked into the room again.

Tony followed closely, but as soon as he entered the door, his eyes were attracted by the huge metal ball in front of him, "Tungsten carbide?" Tony recognized the alloy material used in the ball in front of him at a glance.

"That's right, the sword never grows old. There are 400 pounds of tungsten carbide here. Come over here and I'll show you something interesting." Mark waved to Tony and led him to the test bench in the room.

There is a set of chemical preparation instruments placed on the experimental table, which have been connected in an orderly manner. They also contain chemical reagents of various colors. It is obvious that Mark's new discovery this time is related to chemistry.

Mark picked up a test tube and poured the chemicals in it into the preparation equipment. "Mix some perchloric acid and a drop of cobalt pigment." Mark moved along the table, constantly adjusting various instruments and adding reagents. "A little bit of hydrogen peroxide, and then heat it to a temperature of 500 Kelvin." After speaking, Mark turned on the heating device.

After putting the prepared liquid into a spray bottle, Mark handed it to Tony: "Try it and spray it on the tungsten carbide sphere."

Tony took out the bottle and put the reagent on the huge sphere as Mark said. The reagent sprayed out, forming a pink spray, and the entire metal ball soon turned pink under its shroud.

"It's done, isn't it great?" Mark asked excitedly when he saw the experiment was successful.

"Very pink?" Tony was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect Mingkanghui to make something with such no technical content.

"Here comes the most exciting part." But obviously, Mark had given up before and did not reveal the real results.

Mark stretched out his right index finger and lightly poked the tungsten carbide sphere that had turned pink.

Poof~

The entire sphere quickly disintegrated and turned into a true pink dust that filled Mark's room.

"Wow!" Tony, whose whole body was dyed pink, couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the real reagent.

"It's great. Chemical metal embrittlement. Just inject a few milliliters of the corresponding reagent into your chest to turn all the shrapnel into powder, which will be excreted by the body's metabolism. Unfortunately, I haven't found one that can be used on the human body. A non-toxic or low-toxic formula, otherwise you can become my first clinical trial subject."

"What an amazing invention. It seems that the metal formula I will use in the future must be kept secret from you, because the [Steel Son Project] I will discuss with you next will use a lot of metals. "

"[Steel Sons Project]?" The moment he heard Tony's plan, Mark's head was filled with black threads. "Can I not participate?"

"It really has to be you, Mark."

"..."

Chapter 15

"Hey, listen Mark, you have to at least give me a chance to explain the plan to you, right?"

"Okay, let's talk about it first." Mark accepted Tony's statement. In fact, he had already guessed what the plan Tony was talking about was the research and development plan for Mark's series of steel suits. But Mark has some ideas about this that he disagrees with Tony.

"Listen, this was a genius idea and plan. Do you know how I escaped from the terrorists?

The army claimed that I was rescued by them, but in fact this was not the case. I relied on this thing. "As he spoke, Tony turned on the holographic projection device, and a pair of bloated steel armor appeared in front of the two of them.

"This is the secret of my escape. A steel suit, powered by the Ark reactor on my chest, capable of fighting for 50 minutes under extreme conditions. With this rough work and the magical suit you gave me, I and I Dr. Ethan, who was imprisoned together, successfully escaped from the clutches of the terrorists and destroyed their stockpile of weapons."

"So this is your next plan, right? Develop a more refined and powerful protective armor." Mark followed Tony's words and directly stated his purpose.

"That's right! I want to develop a series of steel armors for my own use. This project can not only ensure our safety, but more importantly, it makes me excited! Integrate powerful weapon systems, flight systems, communication systems, The combat system...and so on, are all integrated into such a small armor. It will be the highest creation of mechanical engineering and electronic engineering on the earth!

Because the first armor I built in Afghanistan was the Mark 1 named after you, I plan to make it a Mark series, numbered in the order of development, also called the "Iron Son Project", how about Are you as excited as me? "

Having said this, Tony excitedly put his hand on Mark's shoulder, customizing Mark's calm little face with sparkling eyes.

"It's okay. In fact, even if you don't tell me, I still have plans to develop my own mecha project in the future. And since you can build the first-generation mecha in a simple environment like terrorists, I really want to I don’t know if there’s anything I can do to help you.”

"That's not the case. I really need your help, Mark. The various chips you compiled for Baymax are also applicable to the Mark series. I hope to add them to the suit as an unmanned module. Under development.

Moreover, one person is short-term and two people are long-term. The efficiency of our two geniuses working together will definitely be greater than working alone. Didn't you just say that you wanted to build your own mecha? While helping me, you can also accumulate useful experience, and you can even carry out your projects at the same time. We can have a competition to see who has more powerful results. "

"!" After hearing Tony's words, Mark's eyes, which were not very interested at first, also lit up. Mark Sager is a complete homebody and doesn’t have many hobbies. In addition to conducting scientific research and reproducing various ideas in my mind, my biggest hobby is competing with my father. Every time he could be a little ahead of Tony, Mark would be excited for a long time.

"Since you said so, then I agree. But you have to change the name of this plan. The [Iron Son Project] sounds terrible. Why not just call it the [Iron Man] Project."

Seeing that Mark had already agreed and that changing the name of the plan was not a big deal, Tony nodded and agreed readily.

"By the way, one more thing. Although my mecha design has not been completed yet, I can't show it to you. But since we are going to compete, we have to be fair. What I can tell you now is my mecha plan. It’s called [Transformers Project], and the plan is to produce giant mechas that are over 5 meters in size. I’ll let you know the details on the day when the results are displayed, I promise you will be very surprised.”

"You're still lying to me, dad! Forget it, then I'll just wait and see what surprises your [Transformers] can bring me. Come with me to the garage, I can't wait to get started!" Tony rubbed his hands together excitedly when he thought about the research and development work that was about to begin.

"You should at least let me have breakfast first - no, lunch, stinky daddy!"

"Jarvis, are you there?" Arriving at the underground garage, Tony immediately called for Jarvis' help.

"For you, sir, I'm always here."

"Good afternoon, Jarvis." Although it was already noon, Mark still greeted Jarvis as usual.

"Good afternoon, Master Mark."

"Jarvis, I want to create a new project document, labeled Mark 2."

"Store the file into the Stark Industries central database?"

"No! I actually don't know who I can trust right now. Until I say otherwise, let's just keep everything on my private server."

"Working on a secret project, sir?"

"I just don't want this thing to fall into the wrong hands. Maybe in my hands it can do good."

Arriving at the test bed, Tony opened the holographic design of the Mark No. 1 suit, "Mark, come here and take a look. What do you think about deleting this?"

Tony zoomed in on some details of the suit and asked Mark for his opinion.

"I think its size can be reduced, because removing it directly may affect the balance of the suit during flight."

"That makes sense. The metal material also needs to be replaced, but I won't discuss this with you. I've just seen your metal become embrittled."

"In fact, you only need to cover the surface of the suit with a graphene coating to protect against the effects of metal embrittlement agents, and it can also reduce the overall weight while improving the protective capabilities of the suit."

"That's right. I knew I was right to join you. I will also be equipped with the graphene battery you previously developed as a backup energy source, as well as a super-forced motivation. This can turn me into a Hercules."

Tony and Mark just talked to each other in the garage. When they had similar opinions, they made rapid progress. When they disagreed, they would argue and try to convince each other. But no matter what, in the end it was Tony who made the decision.

After two hours of discussion, the first version of the design was finally completed. At this time, viewing it with a holographic projection, the newly designed suit was no longer as bloated and rough as the Mark 1, and the body shape was closer to the size of a normal person. . The defense power that cannot be judged by the naked eye has also been greatly improved after using Mark's graphene nanomaterials.
