Chapter 112: Vanko’s Call
2/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.
Pepper’s persuasion was very effective, and Tony stopped talking.
And George also remembered that he had almost offended the very person he shouldn’t offend just now.
“I was rude, Ms. Poz.”
He could only calm down, as Pepper insinuated.
“Sir, there’s a call for you, but it is an undisplayed number.”
Suddenly, Jarvis’s voice emerged from the suit, and Tony’s eyes twitched. Who would call him at this time?
Could it be that…
“Excuse me, I need to answer the phone.”
Tony activated the palm cannon, rising into the sky from the top of the building, stopping in the air for hundreds of meters.
“Jarvis, get on the phone.”
“Hey, Tony, are you okay? It’s great to hear from you again… I doubled the speed.”
As soon as he answered the phone, Tony heard an English with a strong Russian accent, the voice talking was familiar.
The other party first greeted him plainly, and then changed the conversation abruptly.
“Ivan Vanko.”
Tony remembered to whom this voice belonged in an instant.
“You said it was too inefficient to get the counter-energy through the ionized plasma channels and suggested that I double the speed to create more energy, which I did, and it was good advice.”
Inside Hammer Industries, Ivan grinned.
“Ivan, I thought you were dead, but I didn’t expect you to be this quite energetic.”
Tony argued with Ivan while letting Jarvis trace the source of the call.
“Haha, coincidentally, that’s what I thought.”
“Palladium poisoning doesn’t feel that good, huh?…hahahaha.”
Ivan laughed strangely.
“You happen to be at the expo right now, it saves me a lot of effort.”
“Watch carefully, Tony, I will let the Stark pay for all the sins they committed, everything your father has done to our family in the past forty years.”
“I will do it to you in the next 40 minutes, and then completely rewrite Stark’s family history!”
“Sounds good, we can have a good chat.”
Tony continued to talk with Ivan, and then asked Jarvis, “Jarvis, did you find him?”
“Sir, we are hacking into the Oracle telephone network… we tracked the target to the east coast of the United States… New York… Manhattan and neighboring boroughs…”
Almost there, only a few more seconds…
“I hope you are ready, Tony.”
At this moment, Ivan didn’t give Tony a chance and hung up the phone.
He had long known that Tony would try to track his location.
Although Hammer Industries did not have powerful artificial intelligence, the network barrier that Ivan built himself was not easy to break, so he hung up the phone before Jarvis found Ivan’s proper address.
“Manhattan is near… the Expo…”
Tony gazed down at Justin Hammer who had already stepped onto the stage at this time and then thought of the location of Hammer Industries.
It goes without saying that it was Hammer who saved Ivan.
It’s no wonder that Hammer has become more and more arrogant recently.
It’s a pity that Hammer is still as stupid as ever, choosing someone he cannot handle, like Ivan, to help him.
Ivan is like a cruel and cunning Siberian wolf. On the surface, he is working for Hammer. But in fact, he has secretly poured a lot of resources from Hammer Industry on himself.
That mechanical army he created, in fact, is nothing more than a team of broken iron to build up mass-produced cannon fodder, their actual combat power is quite trash.
The few cutting-edge materials have long been unknowingly taken by Ivan secretly to build his own battlesuit.
His Whiplash was specifically designed to take out Mark IV.
On the other hand, when Tony hurriedly flew up to the sky to answer the phone, Director George and Pepper and other people looked at each other.
In addition to Pepper and George, Happy is also here, and there are also George’s elite policemen around him..
“Ms. Poz, do you know who is calling Stark?”
George asked suddenly.
“Looking at Stark’s expression, he doesn’t seem at ease.”
Pepper shook her head and said, “I can’t think of anyone. I would have guessed Colonel Rhodes before, but now, their relationship is tense.”
“In other words, the person calling Tony right now is not someone you are familiar with?”
“In fact, Tony doesn’t have a few familiar people who will call him, including his exes.”
Speaking of this, Pepper’s expression was a bit unnatural. She doesn’t know how others thought of Tony’s romantic affairs at that time, but she herself didn’t want to mention Tony from that time.
“Well…”
After listening to Pepper’s words, George fell into deep thought.
“At this point in time, if the person calling Tony is not someone you are familiar with, then it is most likely a call from Phantom Kid!”
George said gravely.
“Phantom Kid! But how could he know Tony’s private number?”
Pepper asked suspiciously.
“Don’t forget that he pretended to be Colonel Rhodes to lie to you, Ms. Poz. Don’t underestimate the Magician under the Moonlight.”
George’s expression at the moment was extremely serious, causing Pepper to be inexplicably affected.
“With Phantom Kid’s abilities, it is not difficult to know Stark’s private number.”
“If it’s really Kid, why should he contact Tony?”
Pepper was still doubtful.
“Other than that, there is no other reasonable explanation.”
George said solemnly: “Maybe Phantom Kid wants to get Stark out of here. After all, if Iron Man is here to guard the Mountain of Light, it will be difficult for him to find the opportunity to steal it.”
“Kid’s usual smoke bomb will fail in front of Iron Man’s suit.”
Pepper nodded, George’s speculation was very reasonable.
“So, do you think Phantom Kid will appear after Tony leaves the zone?”
“You are right, Ms. Poz. That’s what I think.”
George agreed with Pepper’s idea.
“So, I think it’s still better to activate the security device now, it will take back the Mountain of Light to the treasure room.”
“In this way, be it Kid or not, we can deal with the one phone calling Mr Stark.”
Pepper thought for a while and nodded: “You are right, Director Stacey.”
Pepper walked to the counter where the Mountain of Light was placed and quickly clicked on the booth. A button protruded from the front of the booth, and Pepper immediately pressed the switch.
Then the entire counter was embedded in the floor with a slight rumble.
“Barton, there is a situation!”
Coulson contacted Hawkeye on the roof of a building 1,600 meters away from the central exhibition hall.
“Iron Man suddenly lifted off, the coordinates are…”
