Chapter 12 Who Is the Wisdom of Mortals?

When Leon entered the laboratory, he found that except for several Ark reactors and a stack of DC comics on Tony's desk, there was nothing special.

Even Tony isn't here.

"Tony?" He looked around, "Where are you?"

Leon's super hearing does not stay on at all times.

Just like Superman in the movie.

He has to concentrate and let his brain reject most external information in order to live in a quiet world.

When he didn't get a response, Leon listened slightly, looking for Tony's movements: "It turns out it's in the garage, but why does it sound a bit noisy?"

When Leon finds Tony in the basement.

He looked like he had dark circles under his eyes, but he was full of energy.

He wears mechanical shoes with exposed wires on his feet, holds the controller in both hands, and is directing the "little assistants".

"Benben, you continue to take the video. Daidai, go over there. Yes, it's right there. You are responsible for putting out the fire."

Then Tony stood in the center of his improvised experimental platform and took a few deep breaths.

"Okay, let's give it a try. First activate 10% of the thrust and prepare to take off. Phew..."

Tony shook his shoulders and took a deep breath to adjust: "Come on, three, two, one!"

He pressed the control device in his hand, and a powerful jet of flame suddenly shot out from the iron shoes under his feet.

laugh! !

The ferocious thrust sent Tony flying into the air.

Then it hit the ceiling hard with a thud, obviously the impact was not light.

"Oh!!" Tony shouted in pain and fell to the ground.

The intelligent robotic arm on the side determined that the situation complied with the instructions and immediately released fire spray.

"Oh, that must be painful." Leon looked at Tony, who was covered in white spray, and sighed with his head back.

"Leon?" Tony turned his head when he heard the voice, his cheeks squeezed together in pain, and he twisted his shoulders on the ground, "Come and give me a hand, I'm afraid my ribs are going to be broken."

"Here we are... maybe you'd better ask Daidai to prepare a crash pad for you next time." Leon stepped forward and lifted Tony to the chair.

He glanced up and down: "Very good, it's just a skin injury. You can still continue to do the extreme sports you just did."

"That's not an extreme sport." Tony rolled his eyes, "That's me making the Mark 2 suit!"

"You mean your second suit of armor is this pair of shoes? Do you want others to shoot at your shoes? Don't be kidding, these shoes are not Captain America's shield." Lyon joked.

"Of course not! I am currently experimenting with the propulsion system. Once this link is completed, the subsequent efficiency will be greatly improved."

Tony immediately retorted, not forgetting to ridicule: "Of course, ordinary people with average grades like you basically can't understand the logic here."

Now it was Leon's turn to roll his eyes: "I got admitted to Columbia University no matter what. Do you have some misunderstandings about ordinary people?"

"Oh? Really? There's nothing you can do about it. When I was your age, I had already graduated from MIT for many years and had three doctorates from Cambridge. I really couldn't understand the feelings of ordinary people."

Tony waved his hands in disgust: "But it should be the same. When you get to Colombia in the future, you will find that your teachers can't understand my armor."

"I'm sorry, my university major is business, and my teacher probably understands the economic benefits of your armor."

When Leon didn't have the ability to awaken before, he could only develop in the direction of managing a company. Naturally, he applied for a business major in college.

But it's different now.

He knocked on Tony's iron shoe: "And the past was before, and the present is now. Don't forget what kind of ability I awakened."

"Ability, what ability? Isn't it just about getting stronger in the sun?" Tony wondered.

"It's superman's ability!" Leon emphasized, "I have everything Superman has!"

"So? Are you going to come and tell me now that you are actually a Kryptonian? Yesterday, your Kryptonian father who became a super artificial intelligence came to your door and asked you to put on red pants and save the world?"

Tony said with an exaggerated expression: "Or are you saying that your cousins ​​from Krypton have received the signal from the spacecraft and will come to capture you tomorrow, so they come to me now for help?"

Leon was speechless: "Tony, when did you have so many naive assumptions? Of course I am from Earth. You took me for so many physical examinations when I was a child and you didn't know it?"

Leon is undoubtedly from Earth.

Nineteen years ago.

He traveled to this world and became a baby.

By chance, he was adopted by the Starks.

Although I have no memory of before I was one year old, I don’t know if I have biological parents in this life.

But his appearance is not much different from his previous life, and his blood tests have never had any accidents since he was a child.

It all shows that he is a native of Earth.

"Also, you have read too many DC comics recently! There is no DC darkness in our world!" Leon complained.

"Then what do you want to explain?" Tony tilted his head.

"I mean, Superman also has a power called a super brain, and so do I."

A super brain will allow him to make more achievements in engineering, and even reach the top very easily.

Leon pointed to the iron shoes: "So now I can completely understand your research, and even surpass you."

"Beyond me?" Tony raised his chin directly, "Leon, this year's April Fool's Day has passed, you can save this cold joke until next year."

He squinted his eyes: "And I don't remember Superman having this ability. If he has a super brain, can he always rush up and punch the enemy in the comics?"

Leon smacked his lips: "Maybe... it's his super brain that tells him that he must first learn to believe in his super power when facing difficulties?"

"Isn't that a reckless brain?" Tony concluded, "So you still can't understand my armor."

Leon didn't want to argue anymore: "Stop! The meaningless argument ends here! People like you who only read half of the comics are the most annoying. Go and finish Superman's comics before you refute me!"

Without waiting for Tony to argue.

He said directly: "You mortal wisdom, since you say I can't understand your armor, do you dare to let me learn from you?"

Leon raised a finger: "It only takes one day, and your knowledge will become my knowledge."

"And in three days, I will create a better armor than yours!"

"What did you say?"

Tony was no longer sleepy now.

What he couldn't stand the most was others' provocations in his professional field.

Especially when the provocation comes from his stupid brother.

"This is really the funniest joke I heard in 2008."

As if his chest didn't hurt anymore, Tony jumped out of bed and looked directly into Leon's eyes.

"I accept your challenge."

He declared victory: "Mortal wisdom? Huh? I will return this title to you in three days."

"Follow me."

He waved his hand, returned to the experimental site, and began to command the intelligent mechanical arm.

"Daidai, you go clean up the site; Benben, go get the materials, and the others, wait for me to design a new jet structure."

Lyon squinted at Tony, who was full of fighting spirit in front of him, and the desire to win in his heart also burned.

"Jarvis, send all the knowledge related to the exoskeleton mecha to my Stark Pad, I want to understand Tony's design drawings within half an hour."

"Okay, Master Lyon." Jarvis agreed first.

Then it asked again: "But, Master Leon, do you still remember the purpose of your visit to Tony and Ms. Pepper's previous request?"

"Pepper? What's wrong with Pepper? Ignore it for now."

Leon twisted his arm: "Today I will let Tony know what a super brain is."
