Phantom Kid in the American Comic World
130. Howard Video Cassette
"Wait, Stark!"
Fury ends up panicking, only God knows if Tony is just playing around with him.
“You must be calm!”
"I'm very calm now."
Tony did not put down his palm cannon, but the accumulation of energy stopped temporarily.
Fury and Natasha heaved a sigh of relief. It seems that things have not reached the worst.
The director of SHIELD is not a simple government official. If he was killed, the consequences would be severe, even wealthy capitalist families, like the Starks.
"Give me my father's things!"
Tony shouted loudly as his other hand pointed at the safe.
"OK, okay, this was originally intended for you, you don't actually need this much fun."
Fury tries to talk to Tony in a calm tone.
He slowly put his hand on the safe and pushed it hard.
The safe slides from the side of the table in front of Fury in the opposite direction, Tony's side of the table.
And since the table where Tony was sitting had been hammered to pieces by him, there was a crack that split both sides. However, the crack was not too big.
A seemingly random push can make the safe stop safely at the opposite edge of the table, specifically in front of Tony's side.
Fury's strength is very ingenious and precise.
"Hmph, play your own Avengers game, I don't want to see a SHIELD agent appear at Stark Industries again!"
“Include Coulson!”
Tony snorted coldly, took the safe, and left. But instead of coming out the front door, he immediately smashed the windshield of the fast food restaurant.
Tony walked out wearing his armor, making heavy footsteps.
"explosion!"
With a sonic boom unleashed as the steel suit thrusters began, Tony quickly disappeared into the sky.
Fury sat on a chair with a grim face, with a very scattered mind.
Natasha kept her gun; no fight happened. For him, this is the best result.
Unfortunately, from today onwards, he has fully entered Tony's blacklist.
Looking at the glass facade that broke after Tony left, Natasha wondered if there would be a possibility to improve the relationship between SHIELD and Stark in the future.
Since all the information that the Phantom Kid sent to Tony was true, the SHIELD scientists have been committed to solving the mystery that Howard left behind for years, but unfortunately, the, so far there has been no result.
And if they make small advances in research, Fury won't tell Tony that Howard discovered the existence of a new element.
Nevertheless, the temptation to discover the new element was simply too great, how could SHIELD withstand their greed?!
Fury's defeat today wasn't small; what was left of Howard was nothing, in fact, it was Iron Man's loss of confidence in SHIELD. That was the biggest loss.
The Avengers Alliance project has just begun. Fury is initially convinced that Tony will join voluntarily, but he encounters a major obstacle at the beginning.
Natasha secretly glanced at her boss with sympathy. As the only level ten SHIELD agent, he had authority over a lot of information.
Therefore, no one knows better than Natasha how much Fury has invested in the Avengers project, how much planning he has made, he said, and how he secretly undertook this project under pressure from the World Security Council.
Now it seems that the Board's opposition to this plan is not unreasonable.
After all, even their best plan to con Tony, the best recruit, with his father's legacy has failed.
These people are even less likely to accept SHIELD invitations…
The only one who can join the Avengers unconditionally is thought to be Captain America.
Too bad this guy's still sleeping under the glacier. Before the expedition finds him by accident, Fury has no idea that Steve Rogers is not actually dead.
As Natasha was considering whether to push her boss, she suddenly felt a heatwave.
In an instant, his face turned pale.
This hot wind of course blew off the glass wall that Tony had smashed, blowing past Fury and ending at Natasha's place.
This does not seem to be a problem, it is a very normal phenomenon of air circulation.
But the problem is Fury is in front of Natasha!
When the heat wave struck, it also carried the unspeakable smell of Fury at the same time …
Tony brings the safe back to the Stark Mansion.
He can't wait to open the safe, though he doesn't have time to ask Fury what the safe code is.
But this isn't even a problem for Tony.
Jarvis decoded the safe at random.
However, when Tony opened the safe, he was suddenly stunned.
There is only one video cassette in it, marked with the number “1967”.
“Expo The first Stark Technology was held in 1967 ..”
Toni's eyes squinted. He took out a videotape and prepared it for Jarvis to play it.
“Sorry sir, this is a video recording made in the 1960s. It is not compatible with our existing playback system.”
Since when has our advanced technology become so flawed?
In desperation, Tony must tear apart the box, hoping to find an old video cassette player.
But then again, how could the Stark Tower, which has been completed this year, have products from the last century?
“Jarvis, hurry and ask someone to buy a video cassette player and bring it to me. Forget it, I'll go faster by myself. get my armor ready!”
toni.
“Sorry, sir, although this video cassette was made in the past century, it is a custom made item and can only be played with a dedicated video cassette player. There is no such video cassette player on the market today.”
Toni: “...”
So, Tony had to bring the video footage back to his sea-view villa, hoping to find one of these items in the storage room at home.
Fortunately, he moved all the belongings his parents had left to the villa, and finally took out a dilapidated video cassette player from the rubble.
Tony set it up and played the video tape.
“Gentlemen and ladies, look behind me, this is the design model of Stark Tech Expo, the city of the future as I imagined.”
“This will be the key to unlock the future.”
Instantly, when the scene came out, Tony frowned.
Because this is a video Howard introduced the expo, not secret material.
Not only Tony, but many people around the world have this video.
