Chapter 230 The Rise of Machinery
Looking at the steel soldiers who were transformed into mechanical life one after another, Ivan Vanke's scarlet pupils burst out with scorching light.
The previous hunt for Tony Stark made Ivan Vanke deeply understand the pain of being alone.
When he was hunting down Tony Stark.
If it weren't for Tony Stark's strength in numbers, he sent bodyguards one after another to stop him.
He wouldn't let Tony Stark get a chance and escape.
He even found such a terrifying helper in the end to deal with him.
Recalling the young man who seemed immature but possessed all kinds of incredible abilities, Ivan Vanke's scarlet electronic eyes were filled with a violent energy.
If it hadn't been for that guy's intervention.
Tony Stark is no match for him.
And if that guy hadn't intervened, he wouldn't have died.
Thinking of his "death".
Everything he went through in order to climb out of hell.
Ivan Vanke, who had already survived such a situation, still couldn't help but shudder.
The body full of mechanical parts was making a rattling noise.
Although I am lucky enough to be that believer.
But he didn't want to experience the horrific experience before again.
"snort!"
"Wait!"
"Soon, very soon, I will no longer be the only one."
Looking around at the steel soldiers who were transformed into mechanical life one after another, as well as the large-scale equipment that was activated.
Excitement filled Ivan Vanke's electronic eyes.
Although he suffered inhuman and horrific torture in hell, he also possessed incredible terrifying abilities when he returned to the human world.
Being able to activate equipment and give life to machinery through the mechanical heart is one of them.
With this ability.
He can quickly assemble an army of machines.
certainly.
The energy in the mechanical heart is not endless.
Ivan Vanke, who had just crawled out of hell, had only accumulated the power to activate the Mechanical Heart once.
That's why.
Ivan Vanke was so quiet when he was locked up in the warehouse by the bald engineer.
It wasn't until the bald engineer was brought to this arsenal where a large number of weapons and steel soldiers were stored that the power of the Heart of Machinery was unlocked.
"Tony Stark, and that damn bastard, wait!"
"It won't be long before I come to find you."
After crawling out of hell.
Aylin, who had killed himself once, was set as his must-kill target by Ivan Vanko, just like Tony Stark.
And this time.
He will never fail again.
"Click, click..."
Just when the number of "alive" mechanical beings around Ivan Vanke reached one hundred.
The violently beating mechanical heart in Ivan Vanke's body suddenly stopped beating and quickly decomposed into disorganized parts one after another.
And the beating sound of the mechanical heart suddenly stopped.
Around Ivan Vanke, the various mechanical devices that were transforming into mechanical life but had not yet completed their final transformation all stopped mutating.
And, it returned to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Is the energy... exhausted?"
When all changes stop.
Around Ivan Vanke, forty steel soldiers were arranged neatly.
And behind these forty steel soldiers, there is a huge figure of huge size.
Those huge figures are the mechanical beings mutated from large-scale equipment.
Looking at the many mechanical lives surrounding him.
An unprecedented sense of security quickly arose in Ivan Vanke's heart.
These mechanical lives were transformed and resurrected by the mechanical heart.
He will be his most loyal subordinate and his most heroic warrior.
And these mechanical soldiers.
While giving Ivan Vanke a sense of security, it also inspired his inner desires and ambitions.
"not enough!"
"I also need more soldiers, and stronger warriors."
One hundred Iron Soldiers is too few.
A torrent of steel composed of a hundred steel soldiers can instantly overwhelm an army of tens of thousands from the front.
But compared with the hundreds of millions of troops in the entire human army, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Not to mention the terrifyingly powerful weapons in human hands.
If he wants to completely spread the mechanical light to every corner of the earth, then he must have more men and stronger firepower.
And whether it's the men who want more.
Whether it is to replenish energy for the mechanical heart and revive more mechanical life, it is inseparable from various energy sources and resources.
"For the glory of machinery, I must have more resources."
Thinking of this, Ivan Vanke looked at the body of the bald engineer lying next to him, his eyes flashed, and a bold idea suddenly came to his mind.
I can't stop thinking about it.
After thinking for a while.
Ivan Vanko fished out the bald engineer’s cell phone from among his corpse.
After picking up the mobile phone, Ivan Vanke found a data cable from his fingertips and quickly deciphered the bald engineer's mobile phone password.
After looking at the name Justin Hammer in the address book.
A hint of smile seemed to flash across Ivan Vanko's cold steel mask.
After summoning a steel soldier and giving him a few instructions, Ivan Vanko took a video with the bald engineer's mobile phone and sent it to Justin Hammer.
"The bait has been sprinkled, and now we have to wait for the big fish to take the bait."
Ivan Vanko made a decision.
He didn't seem to realize that he, who originally regarded revenge as his creed, had unknowingly turned his goal into spreading the glory of machinery.
The moon sets and the sun rises.
Time soon came to eight o'clock in the morning.
Because a major accident occurred at the dance held by Midtown High School last night, in order to suppress the impact and discussions among students, the school authorities of Midtown High School specially gave all twelfth grade students a three-day holiday.
And Aylin, who unexpectedly got a three-day holiday, simply drove his Aston Martin to the Miracle Building in the core of Hell's Kitchen.
After driving into Hell's Kitchen, the roar of Aston Martin instantly attracted the attention of countless people.
In Hell's Kitchen, which is synonymous with poverty and backwardness.
Luxury cars like Aston Martin are rare.
The beautiful appearance and roaring sports car engine attracted the envious eyes of countless people in Hell's Kitchen, and also attracted the attention of a large number of car thieves and thieves.
In Hell's Kitchen, it is rare to find fat sheep who can afford Aston Martin.
However, when Ailin's Aston Martin was parked outside the Miracle Building.
Those car thieves and thieves who followed Aston Martin and thought they had met fat sheep, immediately withdrew their eyes with fear.
"Bad luck!"
After cursing secretly, those guys who followed Aston Martin suddenly dispersed and quickly disappeared in the crowd of Hell's Kitchen.
After Kingpin died.
After a period of chaos in Hell's Kitchen.
As the territories were redivided, the chaotic situation quickly became clear.
Among them, the Miracle Group, which emerged as a new force and quickly took in most of the elites left by the Jinbing Empire, and bit off a piece of fat from the huge corpse, became the new overlord of Hell's Kitchen.
During the rise of the Miracle Group, it was not that no one had paid attention to it.
However, those who had their eyes on it, without exception, became stepping stones for the Miracle Group and were killed by them.
After a bloody killing.
The Miracle Group stepped on the reputation of those gangs and quickly rose to power, becoming the object of fear again in Hell's Kitchen.
Although the reputation of the Miracle Group is far from that of the Jinbing Empire at the beginning.
But in Hell's Kitchen, it has become a bully that no one dares to provoke.
Even in Hell's Kitchen, the other two gangs that rose up in the chaos listed the Miracle Group as an object that cannot be provoked.
In this case,
After seeing the Aston Martin parked outside the Miracle Building, even the most greedy car thieves gave up the idea of stealing Aston Martin.
They wanted to make a fortune, but they didn't want to lose their lives.
·········
A dozen minutes later.
Ailin, under the respectful leadership of Bucky.
He went straight into the third underground floor of the Miracle Group.
When Bucky and Ailin disappeared in an exclusive elevator.
In the Miracle Group, people who saw their backs speculated about Ailin's identity.
In order to quickly digest the [Instigator] potion.
In the fights between the Miracle Group and other gangs in Hell's Kitchen, Bucky was almost always the leader.
Therefore, Bucky has a prestige in the Miracle Group second only to the boss.
Except for the BOSS, they have never seen the "instructor" respect others so much.
···········
As the elevator slowly descended.
Bucky, who had just pressed the elevator button and stood in front of Erin, could not help but straighten his body.
It was strange.
His boss was the one who was moody and looked more difficult to serve, but the gentle Erin behind him put more pressure on Bucky.
Bucky dared to make some jokes in front of the clown Erin, but he didn't even dare to say a few words in front of Erin.
Erin, who was standing behind Bucky, seemed to see Bucky's tense nerves and smiled faintly: "Why are you nervous? We have met before. Speaking of it, your first mental stamp was left by me."
As Erin spoke.
Recalling the warm feeling that the first mental stamp brought to him in his mind.
Bucky's tense nerves were relieved a lot, and even his muscles became less stiff.
"I don't know why, I always get nervous when I see you."
Bucky just explained.
The exclusive elevator that goes directly to the underground third floor made a "ding" sound.
Outside the elevator.
At this time, a figure in a white coat was standing.
This figure was none other than Dr. Banner, who hurried out of the laboratory after hearing that the real "big boss" was coming.
Unlike Bucky.
Dr. Banner didn't know the relationship between Erin and the Joker's clone.
He only knew that the man behind the Miracle Group was the terrifying existence who summoned the six-winged angel and almost beat Hulk into a psychological trauma.
That's why Dr. Banner, who just knew Erin was coming, was more curious about Erin, whom he had never met.
Before the meeting.
Dr. Banner had imagined various images of Erin in his mind.
In order to control his emotions, Dr. Banner also read some Christian and Catholic scriptures.
Originally, he thought that the big boss who could summon the six-winged angel would be a white-haired saint, or a monk of the church.
But he never thought about it.
The big boss who really appeared in front of him would be so... young.
If Bucky hadn't been standing behind Erin with a respectful face, and Dr. Banner had also felt a rare fear from the Hulk in his body.
Dr. Banner really didn't dare to connect Erin with the mysterious strong man who summoned the six-winged angel and attracted the attention of the whole network.
"Hello, Dr. Banner!"
After walking out of the elevator, Erin took the initiative to stretch out his right hand and said with a smile, "Why, am I different from the image you imagined?"
The moment he heard Erin's voice, Dr. Banner came back to his senses.
He stretched out his hand and shook Erin lightly in a panic.
Banner said, "In fact, I never thought you would be so young. But I can feel that the Hulk hidden in my body is afraid of you."
"Really?"
After hearing Banner's words, Erin flashed a trace of surprise.
Hulk is actually afraid of himself?
This is something Erin had never thought of.
[Could it be that the previous battle in Harlem left a psychological shadow on the newborn Hulk? ]
Recalling the scene in the movie where Hulk was psychologically traumatized by Thanos and even didn't want to appear.
Erin smiled and shook his head.
Then he asked, "Dr. Banner, how is your research on the repair wax going?"
Talking about his own research.
Dr. Banner, who was a little restrained in front of Eileen, was refreshed and became more confident.
"Based on the research during this period, I have found a lot of material substitutes in the formula, and through continuous experiments, I have configured three optimal solutions."
At this point, Dr. Banner glanced at Eileen and said, "It is inevitable that verbal narration is a bit empty. If you have time, Boss, I can take you to the laboratory to see the effect on the spot!"
"Watch the effect on the spot?" Eileen nodded and said, "In that case, I will trouble Dr. Banner."
