Marvel Shuttling the Heavens - Chapter 201
Tony slowly raised his right hand in a strange posture, waiting for the missiles to close in, as if he couldn’t even bother to evade them!
“Is that really the famous Tony Stark? How dumb is he that he doesn’t even try to dodge so many missiles?”
The villains aboard the helicopters were very confused at Tony’s reaction—or rather, the lack thereof! It’s one thing if you weren’t able to dodge, but Tony even stretched out his right hand to some sort of a pose. What, do you think you can block the missiles with your palm?!
However, they couldn’t have predicted what happened next!
If the rocket motors in the missiles weren’t still spewing flames, the villains would’ve thought that the missiles were fake product!
The missiles gradually slowed down, as if time had been paused, stopping less than ten meters in front of Tony. The rocket flames were still burning fiercely, but the missiles were unable to move any further!
“Not good. Everyone, retreat immediately!”
The bald boss looked at the bizarre sight and felt a chill in his heart. His premonition, tempered by his experience, made him hurriedly shout to his crew to retreat and turn away immediately!
“Heh, you want to run away now? It’s too late! I appreciate your gift, but unfortunately, I don’t need these missiles! So I will return them to you!”
With a gesture from Tony’s right hand fingers, the missile slowly turned!
Tony relaxed his mind and slowly released his control over the missiles, allowing them to regain their speed as they rushed towards the helicopters!
“Idiot, what is going on? Why did our missiles suddenly targeted us? Hurry up and control the missiles, if you don’t want us all to be dead!”
Whoosh—
The bald man took a machine gun and fired at Tony and the missiles that had turned against them, roaring to the pilot to rein the control back on the missiles!
“B-but Boss, our system doesn’t show any problem! There is no sign of hacking!”
The pilot replied helplessly. Every values on his consoles are normal, there wasn’t any sign of hacking, but no matter what he did he couldn’t regain control on the missiles’ flight!
“Fuck! What do you mean it wasn’t hacked? What’s going on, then? If you can’t take control of those missiles, we’d all be dead!”
The missiles carried special guidance systems, it should be impossible for them to attack targets outside their parameter. Then what was happening? It should be that damn Iron Man’s doing, but how did he do it?
It was already unimaginable that someone could hack those missiles in just a few seconds!
Of course, they would never have imagined that Tony didn’t rely on hacking at all to take control of the missiles. Instead, he used his superpower to forcefully change the direction of the missiles!
…
The bald boss had discovered in time that the missiles had been taken over, and had wisely told the pilots to begin evasive maneuver, but the helicopters could never match the pure speed of the missiles: they caught up to the helicopters in matter of seconds!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
“What happened over there?”
The series of explosion could even be heard from Tony’s villa. The party-goers couldn’t help but to look at the direction of the sea, where they could see dazzling fireballs!
“Jarvis, what’s going on? What did Tony wear his armor for? Forget it, I’ll ask him myself. Hurry up and connect to Tony!”
Pepper was discussing Stark Industries business when she heard the distant explosions. She couldn’t help but to excuse herself and get outside before asking Jarvis, just what did Tony do!
“I’m sorry, Miss Potts, but Mr Stark had asked me to tell you not to worry about him, as he would personally explain everything to you!”
Jarvis refused to connect her to Tony!
“Alright. Just tell him to come see me immediately after he returns!”
…
Tony smiled in satisfaction as he looked at his handiwork! However, he suddenly noticed a figure falling to the sea from the exploding helicopter!
The armor’s sensors indicated that the figure was alive!
“Oh? Well, might as well catch him alive! Let’s find out who sent them!”
Tony’s eyes lit up. He was too preoccupied by testing his power that he forgot to keep some villains alive and blew up all four helicopters! He sighed in relief when he found that one of them was still alive!
“Jarvis, catch him!”
Tony used his armor to accelerate and rush towards the person that was falling towards the sea!
The bald boss was irritated. He was prepared to die, of course, but he never thought that he would die from his own missiles!
Right before the missile hit his helicopter, he bit the bullet and jumped out, taking the gamble to survive impact with the sea surface!
After all, even someone like him would rather live than die!
…
“Hey, open your eyes. You’re saved!”
The bald boss waited for dozens of seconds, but the fall never stopped and he never splashed into the water! Instead, he heard a voice mocking him!
“What is going on? Damn you Tony Stark, what did you do to me?”
The bald boss opened his eyes and found a person clad in bright red armor! He was very familiar with the owner of that armor: it was the target of his operation!
He didn’t know how or why, but his body defied gravity and floated in the air, less than two meters above the sea!
“Hey, I’d watch my tone if I were you! If not for me, you’d have splashed into the sea! Your chance of survival weren’t good!”
Tony couldn’t control human bodies, but luckily, he found some metal objects in the man’s clothes, so he could stop the baldy from falling to the sea!
“I hope you can tell me in great details about why you attack me, to return the favor of saving you!
“Otherwise, I’d have to turn you over to the military. You would probably rat your client out anyway! But you’d be taking the long, painful road!”
Tony’s tone was light and his face filled by bright smile, but his words were full with heavy threats!
“I’ll… speak!”
The bald boss knew that being sent to the military would be fate worse than death! He accepted his fate and lowered his head!
“Dream on!”
Just when Tony thought that the bald boss would cooperate, the bald man suddenly took out a glass vial from his clothes and injected it to his body!
“What are you doing? Do you think some random drug can help you escape? Do you think you have some superpower serum like me?”
Tony stood back and waited, letting the bald boss inject the content of the glass vial. He didn’t think that whatever the medicine was would be in any way comparable to his own!
However, he would soon find that the medicine was not inferior than his own serum—and maybe even superior!
“Ah! Ah! Ah…”
As Tony watched in shock, the bald man suddenly started glowing in bright yellow light, before the color changed into deep red!
“Hey, are you going to explode?”
Tony couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity at the bizarre sight!
Boom!
“He really exploded! What the fuck did you inject to make this huge explosion!”
Tony did not expect the person in front of him to really explode!
A scorching shockwave swept over Tony, though it didn’t damage his armor!
