Tony drove to the target location and parked the car on another street.
His destination was a mountain villa. Tony climbed a large tree outside the villa and used binoculars to observe the details of the guards inside.
After determining the positions and perspectives of each guard, Tony arrived outside a wall, leaped over it, and quickly reached the stone steps. Seeing the guard with his back to him, Tony threw a stone weight, knocking him down. The guard's head hit the stone steps, and he instantly passed out.
Tony then stepped forward and shot another guard in the neck. Because it was a nail gun, the sound was very quiet, but it didn't kill the man. He then punched the man in the temple, finally finishing him off.
At this moment, another guard came to his aid and launched a sneak attack on him. Tony turned around, grabbed the guard's arm, and used a stun gun to knock him unconscious and knock him down.
After taking down three guards, Tony continued toward the castle. When he came to a side path, he saw two guards back to back. Tony immediately threw a homemade bomb.
The colored ball rolled into the middle of the opposing team and exploded the moment one of the guards picked it up, eliminating one of them.
Just as the other was about to draw his gun, Tony suddenly appeared with his homemade custom gun and fired repeatedly, shooting the other into the pool of water. He then threw a colored bomb to finish him off.
"Bang!"
After taking down two guards, Tony ran out of bullets with his nail gun, so he casually tossed it into a flowerbed and headed towards the castle.
Because Killian had withdrawn all his elite troops, the number of guards here was greatly reduced, and what remained were mostly his mercenaries, whose combat capabilities were no match for Tony.
Tony quickly infiltrated the castle, observed the staircases on both sides after entering, and then chose a direction and went inside.
Just then, Tony heard a woman's voice coming from one direction, so he headed towards the sound and soon Tony at the room where the voice was coming from.
Inside the room, a guard sat in a chair, while a drunken dancer lay on the sofa opposite Tony.
Tony used his stun glove to subdue the guard and took the handgun that was on the table. The dancer, because she was drunk, did not shout or make a sound, but instead made a shooting gesture at Tony.
"Biu!"
Seeing the other person's expression, Tony did not attack the dancer but instead gestured for her to be quiet.
Tony continued walking inside, gently pushed open a Room Door, checked the situation inside, and took off his stun gloves.
Soon, on the computer in the room, I saw a large number of photos related to the Ten Rings, as well as images and filming equipment of the Mandarin.
As Tony walked forward, carefully observing his surroundings, he discovered that the background here was exactly the same as the one in the video. The more he looked around, the more cautious Tony became.
Continuing to walk inside, Tony saw a large bed. There seemed to be two figures under the covers. Tony cautiously approached and saw that the man was aiming a gun at the bed with one hand, ready to fire at any moment, while his other hand lifted the covers.
"Whoosh!"
The moment the blanket was pulled off, two stunningly beautiful, dark-haired women in sexy lingerie appeared on the bed. They were clearly startled to see Tony holding a gun.
Before Tony could say anything, he heard the sound of a toilet flushing behind him. Tony immediately turned around and hid behind the headboard.
At this moment, the Mandarin emerged from the bathroom and said:
"Ha ha ha, I won't be going in again for at least 20 minutes."
Then, turning to the two girls on the bed, he asked, "Which of you is Vanessa?"
One of the girls said, "It's me."
The Mandarin came to the table, picked up a fortune cookie, and threw it at Nisa.
"Oh, Nisha."
"Did you know that fortune cookies weren't invented in China at all?"
"That was made by United States according to a Japanese recipe."
Tony, hiding behind the Mandarin, watched him speak with disbelief on his face. The voice was completely different from the one he had seen on television.
At that moment, a beautiful woman lying on the bed pointed to the headboard and said, "There's someone hiding here."
Tony then stepped out, gun in hand, and shouted at the Mandarin, "Hey!"
Upon seeing Tony Stark emerge with a gun, the Mandarin immediately raised his hands and exclaimed, "Oh no, oh no!"
Tony aimed at the other person and said seriously, "Don't move."
The Mandarin said, "I didn't touch anything. Take whatever you want."
"Even though these guns are fake, because those idiots don't believe I can handle the real ones."
Tony asked in confusion, "Huh?"
The Mandarin continued, "Hey, do you like these two girls?"
Upon hearing the other person's words, Tony interrupted immediately, "Enough."
"You're a stand-in, aren't you? Where is the real Mandarin?"
Clearly, from just a few words, Tony didn't believe that the person in front of him was really the Mandarin. He had heard Charlotte Doyle tell him about the Ten Rings.
Tony roared, "Where is the Mandarin?"
Where is he?
The startled Mandarin sat down in a chair and pointed to himself with both fingers, saying, "He's here, but he's not here either."
"Here, but not here."
Tony walked up to the other man, pointed the gun at his head, and asked, "What do you mean?"
The Mandarin held up one finger and said, "The matter is complicated and cannot be explained in a few words."
Tony shouted, "Speak!"
"It's very complicated."
Tony glanced at the two women on the bed out of the corner of his eye and said, "Explain yourself, ladies, please leave."
"Get out of bed and go to the bathroom."
Tony then slowly backed away, facing the woman, to make sure she had entered the restroom.
At this moment, the Mandarin quietly got off the chair and crawled to the side. Seeing this, Tony immediately fired a shot into the ground.
"Bang!"
Upon seeing the bullet aimed at him, the Mandarin immediately returned to his chair.
The Mandarin, having returned to his chair, said, "My name is Trevor, full Trevor Slater."
Tony asked, "What exactly are you?"
Are you bait? Or a decoy?
Trevor said, "You think I'm a stand-in?"
"I'm not."
Upon hearing this, Tony immediately raised his pistol and pointed it at the man's head.
Seeing this, Trevor immediately shouted, "Don't hit me in the face, I'm an actor!"
You have one minute to explain.
Trevor explained, "I'm just playing the role; the 'Mandarin' himself doesn't exist."
"So how did you get here, Trevor?"
"Yeah, I had another drug craving, and as a result, I ended up doing something on the street."
"Then what?"
"However, they recommended me for this role."
"They know I use that."
Tony looked at the other person and asked, "What did they say? They said they'd help you get over your drugs?"
Trevor held up one finger and said, "They said they'd give me more, they gave me so much, this palace, and even plastic surgery."
"They gave me a lot of things, and even a speedboat."
Upon hearing this, Tony asked directly, "Him? The Ten Rings?"
Trevor shook his head and said, "No, no, no."
"The Ten Rings and the Mandarin are both fictional characters."
Hearing this, Tony no longer believed Trevor's words. He had heard Charlotte Doyle talk about the Ten Rings, the organization that had once kidnapped him. How could they not exist?
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Tony fired three shots around Trevor, scaring him into cowering in his chair.
"I want the truth. You're lying. I'm going to shoot you in the thigh next."
Trevor raised his hands in terror and said, "I'm telling the truth!"
Tony laughed angrily and said, "I've witnessed the existence of the Ten Rings firsthand. You're telling me they don't exist and are just something you made up?"
Trevor exclaimed in surprise, "What? The Ten Rings really exists? This is so interesting!"
Just then, the window shattered instantly. Tony raised his gun and looked outside, only to see Pakkun, Jiraiya, and Kankuro rushing in.
Jiraiya gave Tony a hug and said, "Buddy, I'm relieved to see you're alright."
Kankuro looked at Tony and said, "Mr. Stark."
Tony smiled when he saw the two men and Pakkun: "Hey buddy, what brings you guys here?"
Jiraiya said, "We came to your aid when we heard you were attacked."
While the three were talking, Trevor pressed the emergency call button.
However, Kankuro used Crow to pull the other person back and said, "We've already dealt with everyone outside. Who else do you want to call?"
Kankuro then grabbed the man and asked, "Are you the Mandarin?"
Trevor quickly shook his head and said, "No, I'm Trevor."
Tony picked up Pakkun, patted his head, and said, "Thank you for finding me again."
Pakkun nestled in Tony's arms and said casually, "You're my backup human, I can't lose you."
Tony said helplessly, "I'm just a backup?"
Clearly, in Pakkun's eyes, besides Charlotte Doyle Kakashi Hatake, Tony Stark was the last person he would send, even though they had a good relationship.
However, Trevor's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Could it be that I've taken too many drugs and am hallucinating?"
"The dog can talk!"
Jiraiya looked at Trevor and asked, "What's the situation now?"
Tony then revealed the information he knew, Kankuro volunteered, "Let me interrogate him; he'll tell you everything he knows."
After thinking for a moment, Tony said, "Alright, it's up to you, Kankuro."
Kankuro took out Veritaserum produced in the Magic World and said, "This is a truth serum from the Magic World. Just one drop will make you answer any question honestly."
Even if you wet the bed a few times when you were little.
Looking at what Kankuro was holding, Tony nodded thoughtfully.
Trevor didn't believe in the Magic World, but he did know a little about the government's Veritaserum.
After Veritaserum, Trevor revealed everything he knew.
In his mind, the Mandarin of the Ten Rings did not exist, and he was Killian had brought in to take the blame for those accidental explosions.
As for those videos, they were all staged, filmed with props and green screens like a movie. The dead people in the videos were also fake.
The unique terrorist attacks, the understanding of serial killers' pathology, and the application of classic Western portraiture were all ideas from the Killian think tank.
Hearing Trevor's words, Tony asked uncertainly, "But Charlotte Doyle told me that the Ten Rings is an organization that has existed for thousands of years, and that they were responsible for my kidnapping."
Jiraiya, said, "They probably found the name of this organization somewhere and just borrowed it."
Tony asked, "Who has Killian captured, and what is his purpose?"
Trevor replied, "He captured the Iron Patriot; his target is likely related to the Vice President."
Tony exclaimed in surprise, "Rhodey?"
Where is he?
Trevor shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it should be related to a large ship on the shore."
"Where exactly is it located?"
Trevor then gave the address to Tony.
After asking the question, Kankuro asked, "What do we do with this guy next?"
Tony said, "Tie him up first, and we'll hand him over to the police after we've dealt with Killian."
Just then, Tony's watch beeped; it was time for his scheduled charging.
Jiraiya glanced at the children's watch on Tony's wrist, then grabbed Tony and teased, "I never expected your taste to become so unique."
"Is this a token of love from Pepper Potts?"
Tony broke free from Jiraiya and said, "No, it was a gift from a little guy, a limited edition."
Jiraiya clicked his tongue, indicating that there was a story behind this.
"My Mark 42 can be put back in its place."
Tony immediately made a gesture to summon his armor, but after a minute, nothing happened.
Tony, somewhat embarrassed, said, "It's quite a distance; it might take a while to get here."
Kankuro spoke up, "Mr. Stark, is it the armor that's charging in a warehouse near Rose Hill?"
Tony asked, "Where have you been?"
Kankuro nodded and said, "I've been there."
Pakkun then spoke up, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
Jiraiya smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Pakkun. We'll handle the rest ourselves."
Tony gave Pakkun another pat on the shoulder and then said, "Goodbye, Pakkun."
"Bang!"
The next second, Pakkun disappeared from everyone's sight and returned to the Summoning Realm.
