Marvel: The Rise of Little Iron Man

Underground garage.

Tony Stark knelt on his knees and stared at the city model in front of him frantically, "snatched" from Pepper's office.

His chest fluctuated violently, and the suffocation caused by palladium poisoning and the excitement that was about to be revealed were intertwined, making his whole body tremble slightly.

Pepper's disappointed eyes still lingered in his mind, like a needle, piercing his heart and hair.

But now, he doesn't have time to think about it.

"Jarvis, start the holographic scan, the highest accuracy, and disassemble this damn model into an atomic level for me!"

Tony's voice was hoarse, with a kind of decisiveness.

"Do as you say, sir."

Hum--

Light blue light shines from the ceiling, like a large invisible net, covering the entire model.Between the flow of light and shadow, a virtual city identical to the solid model slowly emerges and rotates in mid-air.

Countless data streams brushed like waterfalls, and Tony's pupils reflected these crazy jumping characters.

His father, Howard Stark, the man who was always old-fashioned and alienated in his memory, hid the greatest secret of his life in the toy he hated most in his childhood.

"Enlarge the core area, that's the spherical building, yes, that's it!"

Tony stretched out his hand and roughly pushed aside the layers of buildings in the virtual image, pointing directly to the center of the model.

The holographic image changes accordingly, the spherical building is infinitely magnified, and its internal intricate structure is clearly presented in front of Tony's eyes.

That's not a building structure.

That's an atomic nuclear model.

Protons, neutrons, electron orbits... Everything is arranged in an unprecedented, perfect and harmonious way.

"Found..." Tony's breathing stagnated for a moment. He stared at the structure, and his eyes burst into a hot light. "I found it! Old man, you old bastard... You really did it!"

It's been a long time, and it's purely a scientist's sense of ecstasy and accomplishment.

At this moment, he is not a billionaire, a boy, or a dying patient.

He is just an engineer who solves the puzzle of the century, a...The son finally understood his father's last words.

However, just as Tony was immersed in this ecstasy, there was a roar comparable to an earthquake upstairs!

"Rumble--!!"

"Clam!!"

The harsh sound of metal cutting and the loud noise of the wall collapse made the whole villa tremble. The dust on the ceiling fell, spilling Tony's head.

"Jarvis! What's going on? We were attacked by missiles?!" Tony roared subconsciously.

"Sir, it's not an attack." Jarvis's voice was as calm as ever. "It was Master Paul who started the second phase of the villa renovation project."

"Renovate?" Tony raised his head in a daze and happened to see a team of silver robots with spider-like mechanical legs crawling over the wall. Their front ends stretched out a high-frequency laser beam and were accurately cutting the load-bearing steel beams on the ceiling.

At the door not far away, Paul was leisurely leaning against the door frame with a cup of hot cocoa in his hand, enjoying the "construction site" leisurely.

"Do you call this transformation?" Tony pointed to the demolished ceiling above his head and felt that his blood pressure was soaring. "You are demolishing the house! My Malibu Mansion!"

"Don't get excited, Dad." Paul took a sip of hot cocoa with a calm smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's just an optimization and reorganization of the space.Believe me, you will fall in love with this place after it is finished.

Looking around, the whole villa hall has completely changed. The walls have been removed, the floors have been lifted, and countless miniature magnetic shaft robots are building a brand-new metal skeleton like hard-working workers and ants.

The scene is chaotic, but there is a sense of orderly scientific and technological beauty.

And Paul Luo is the only king in this chaos.

Tony opened his mouth and found that he was powerless to refute. He forced himself to withdraw his gaze and refocus on the new element in front of him.

"Jarvis, analyze this atomic structure, calculate the synthetic path, and list all the conditions required!"

"It's being analyzed... The structure has been confirmed, sir. This is a brand-new stable element, which can theoretically perfectly replace palladium, and the energy output efficiency will be increased by at least 50 times.

Jarviston paused, and there was a trace of helplessness in his voice.

"However, sir, based on the simulation of the existing database, with our current technology and equipment, this atomic nucleus cannot be synthesized. It needs a... particle accelerator."

"What?" The smile on Tony's face froze in an instant.

It's like a traveler who has been trekking in the desert for three days and three nights and finally seeing the oasis, but finds that it is just a mirage.

Hope, when burning to the highest point, it will be ruthlessly extinguished by a basin of cold water.

"Ha, particle accelerator." Paul smiled and came over, "I thought it was a big problem."

He put the hot cocoa in his hand on the workbench and glanced at the complex atomic structure diagram, with a relaxed tone as if he was talking about today's weather.

"For the people of the Stark family, nothing is impossible, right?"

This sentence was like a match, instantly lighting up the extinguished flame in Tony's eyes.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at his unfathomable son, his eyes were full of complicated emotions. There is surprise, there is unwillingness, and there is a trace of... dependence that even he himself does not want to admit.

"Do you... have a solution?"

"There are always more ways than difficulties." Paul shrugged his shoulders without saying anything, just about to say something.

An untimely voice suddenly came from the garage entrance.

"It seems that I came at the wrong time."

Agent Colson walked in slowly, wearing his straight suit that had not changed for thousands of years, with a professional smile on his face. He took a look at the villa that had been demolished like a ruin, and then at the atomic model suspended in the air, and his eyelids couldn't help jumping.

"Mr. Stark, Paul. S.H.I.E.L.D. No, the Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Bureau needs to supervise you for 24 hours."

"Wow, have you finally decided to use my name?" Paul raised his eyebrows, "But guardianship? My father doesn't have time to play with you now.

Colson's eyes fell on Tony, and his tone became serious: "We know you're in trouble, Tony. Therefore, I was sent here until the crisis was lifted.

"I don't need a nanny." Tony refused coldly.

Colson sighed, as if he had expected this reaction. He turned to look at Paul with a trace of inquiry in his eyes.

"In fact, I have something else to do. Paul, I'm about to be transferred to New Mexico to carry out an urgent mission.

"New Mexico?" Paul's heart skipped a beat.

Here we go!

He knows what will happen at that place and at that time.

"Yes." Colson's expression became a little mysterious, "There are some... inexplicable phenomena. A huge crater, and a... very special hammer.

Before he finished his words, Paul's eyes lit up in an instant, amazingly bright.

That's not a meteorite, that's the landing point of the Rainbow Bridge.

That's not a hammer, that's Thor's hammer, Myernier!

An irrepressible excitement and desire gushed out from the bottom of his heart.Asgard's technology, Uru metal, and even... the power of God!

This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"Agent Colson," Paul's voice had an imperceptible tremor with excitement, "What do you want to say?"

Colson looked at Paul's reaction and was a little surprised, but he continued: "The situation there is very complicated, and we need a top technical consultant. Originally, I wanted to invite Tony, but his current situation... So, I want to ask you, are you interested in going with us?"

He paused and added, "Of course, I know you are still a child, which is risky. I'm just offering a possibility that you can refuse."

"I promise."

Paul almost blurted out without any hesitation.

"What?" This time it was Tony and Colson's turn to be stunned at the same time.

"I said, I promised." Paul repeated, his eyes were clear and firm, "However, I have a condition."

"You said it." Colson immediately said.

"I want you to use all the resources of S.H.I.E.L.D. to help my father build a temporary particle accelerator. I'll send you the list of drawings and materials later. Paul's speech was extremely fast, and his brain had begun to run rapidly. "In exchange, I have the first priority of the right to know and use the 'thing' in New Mexico, all the research results."

"This..." Colson's face was embarrassed. The particle accelerator is not a toy, and the "hammer" is listed as a top secret.

"Deal."

In no time for Colson to refuse, Paul patted the board directly, with an unquestionable smile on his face.

"Believe me, Agent Colson, you will never lose money on this deal. Because what you are about to face may be beyond yours..."

He hasn't finished his words yet.

"Shila--!"

The lights of the whole villa flashed fiercely without warning, and then all of them went out!

The moment in the garageFalling into darkness, only the holographic projection and the ark reactor on Tony's chest were still emitting a faint blue light.

An indescribable and powerful energy fluctuation, like invisible waves, swept through the entire Malibu Beach.

"Jarvis?" Tony's voice suddenly tightened.

"Sir, the external power grid is normal, but the backup power supply... is invalid." For the first time, Jarvis's voice appeared. "Detected a strong gamma-ray burst of unknown origin, approaching..."

In the darkness, everyone's expression was fixed.

The storm seems to have come earlier than expected.
