Chapter 220: Fair farce (3)

"Are you sure you sent them an invitation?"

Stark hesitated for a moment. "The invitations were sent by Pepper. I was busy setting up the exhibits at the time..."

He took out his mobile phone and called Pepper. She was busy signing orders with some businessmen who had come to attend the expo. After answering Stark's call, she snapped, "Hammer Industries' invitation? Of course I didn't send it! Didn't you complain last time that their technology was so bad it polluted your brain just to have them in front of you?"ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

After hanging up the phone, Stark rubbed his hands awkwardly. "Things have taken an unexpected turn. Pepper didn't send an invitation to Hammer Industries..."

"If you don't send them an invitation, they won't come? That's not very dedicated," Schiller exclaimed.

The two spoilers who knew the plot beforehand could only stare at each other in disbelief. They had calculated and analyzed everything, but they didn't expect Hammer Industries to actually follow the rules and not show up without an invitation. What kind of villainous behavior was that?

"Even if Hammer Industries doesn't show up, Ivan Vanko, who has a grudge against you, should..."

"Peng!!!"

The two turned around to face the glass curtain wall. A huge mechanical whip crackling with electricity slammed against it, but the glass didn't break.

"This is a new technology I just developed recently," Stark explained. "The larger the area, the stronger the strength."

"He doesn't seem to be able to come in." Schiller watched the huge whip continuously hitting the glass curtain wall of the hall. The onlookers thought it was a performance project created by Stark and were very excited, surrounding the glass and taking out their mobile phones to take pictures.

Stark took out his phone and said to the other end, "Someone is causing trouble, evacuate the crowd first."

When the security guards of Stark Tower rushed in and drove the crowd out, most of them still didn't understand what was going on. Although they had been wandering around for a long time, they obviously didn't expect the expo to end so abruptly.

Many people didn't want to leave, but they were still driven away by the security guards and evacuated through the emergency exits.

Stark pressed a few buttons on his mobile phone and the corner of the glass curtain wall opened. Stark and Schiller stood in place and turned their heads to look at the corner, but the villain they had been waiting for didn't show up as scheduled. Schiller was a bit helpless. "Can't you make some noise and let him know the door is over here?"

Stark covered his forehead and looked at the electric whip that was still beating the side glass wall. "Do I have to prepare an emergency entrance sign for him?"

Stark, who had been spoiled early because of his high-dimensional perspective, knew that Hammer Industries and Ivan Vanko wanted to cause trouble, but he still held the Stark Industrial Expo as scheduled.

But he wouldn't joke about his own life, so before the industrial expo, he upgraded Stark Tower comprehensively, including but not limited to improving the building's strength, installing new defense systems, using new technology to manufacture new glass curtain walls, and preparing evacuation routes.

But the current situation is that the stage is set, the protagonist has made a dazzling appearance, but the villain is trapped outside because he can't open the upgraded glass curtain wall.

The protagonist had to open a door for him and let him onto the stage. Even more embarrassing was that the door was too high-tech, and the villain didn't recognize it, so he still couldn't get in.

"Never mind, I'll go help him."

After finishing his task, Schiller disappeared and turned into mist outside Stark Tower. He saw Ivan, wielding his whip, hanging below the 89th floor of the tower and continuously hitting the glass curtain wall.

The armed helicopter without sight began to turn around like a headless fly.

"...You ask me about the situation here?" Rhodes, who was negotiating with the military, glanced out the window with his mobile phone. "I can't really describe it to you."

On the floor-to-ceiling window, a lightning whip snapped up, followed by a spider web sticking to the wall, a red and blue figure quickly swinging past, and then a shimmering Mech armor slid past with a "whoosh". Then, a helicopter with a nose full of gray mist spun and fell.

"In any case, the battle is intense... you ask me which side has the upper hand?"

A shadow appeared above Rhodes's head. He turned his head to see a huge parachute floating down outside the window. The helicopter pilot below was cursing on the phone while drifting down. Rhodes asked Pier on the phone, "... Do you know the antonym of evenly matched?"

At this time, Whip finally realized that he couldn't compete with Spider-Man and Iron Man in the air. He leaped down and landed on the terrace on the west side of Stark Tower, and Stark landed in front of him.

Whip stared at him fiercely, and Stark's face mask rose. He looked at Whip and said, "Although I know you probably won't listen to my explanation, and if it was me before, I wouldn't bother explaining to you..."

"Shut up! You and your father are just as despicable. You're all thieves, a group of dirty and nasty rats..."

"You obviously can't beat me now. Your reactor is too outdated and doesn't have enough power. If you don't adjust the power, you won't even be able to fly for a long time..."

Stark's tone did not contain any sarcasm, just calmly stating a fact, but Ivan was completely provoked by him.

In his view, the Stark family were all thieves who stole his father's achievements, exchanged them for their wealth, and used that wealth to create better reactors. He himself could only rely on Justin Hammer because he didn't have enough money to listen to his stupid ideas and make Mech armor for him.

This anger had been building up in his chest for a long time. He didn't want to hear a word from Stark anymore. He swung his whip, and Stark dodged. He seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, several Mech armors flew over from the sky.

Whip turned his head and gritted his teeth: "Hammer! You idiot, you promised me that you wouldn't interfere..."

Justin Hammer's voice came from the lead Mech armor: "I'm here to help you. Do you really think you can beat Stark and his army of Mech armor on your own?"

The Mech armor landed, and Justin confronted Stark: "It's time to reveal your lies, Stark! The Ark Reactor is not your or your father's invention, and it's not exclusive to you. Your technology is not outstanding..."

"Is that so?" Stark leaned against another building of Stark Tower, but before he could speak, Rhodes piloted the Mech armor and led the group of Mech armor that appeared at the Industrial Expo, flying to Stark's side and landing.

"Do you think you're the only one with a Mech armor army?" Justin, who had military support, was obviously inflated, but he had a reason to be.

The batch of Mech armor behind him was no longer Hammer Industries' personal modifications and research. Ivan provided the core energy for these Mech armor, and the military participated in the modification, even using some of the Life Foundation's technology. At least from the outside, there was no difference from the Stark Mech armor led by Rhodes, even more in number.

Stark said, "That was the previous version."

Before Justin and Ivan could react to what he meant, Stark flew into the air again. He stretched out his hand and said, "J.A.R.V.I.S, activate defense protocol."

As he clenched his fists, thousands of cannons on the back of Stark Tower flashed brightly.
