"Sorry, Mr. Superman. Mr. Stark added all those functions on his own."
Watching Tony show off so flamboyantly, Reed came over to Peter with a dark expression and explained.
"Hm? I nearly forgot—Mr. Richards also applied some special technology to this suit."
Seeing Reed expose him, Tony's eyes shifted as he spoke slowly.
He then flew from the air to the laboratory's metal wall and slowly raised a hand toward it.
The next moment, an azure beam suddenly shot out and instantly struck the metal wall.
The azure light then slowly spread across the wall, forming a rectangular Blue Light Screen roughly two meters tall and less than a meter wide.
"What is this?"
Peter looked at the Blue Light Screen on the wall, unable to hide his curiosity.
"Hehe, just watch..."
Tony chuckled, then stepped directly through the Blue Light Screen. It actually rippled faintly like the surface of water.
The next moment, Tony's figure appeared outside the laboratory out of thin air, waving at Peter and the others.
"This is?"
Peter turned toward Reed in surprise.
"Mr. Superman, I swear, I absolutely didn't develop this technology to escape from here."
Cold sweat poured down Reed's forehead as he hurriedly explained himself to Peter.
"It's fine. I just want to know what kind of technology this is."
There was a trace of admiration in Peter's gaze as he looked at Reed. As expected of the smartest man in the Marvel Universe.
"Uh, this was actually an idea I had before coming here, but it never succeeded because of limitations in experimental facilities and energy."
"Now that there's ample equipment here, along with the Arc Reactor's powerful energy support, I gave it a simple try. I never expected it to succeed."
"But I really never intended to escape from here. After all, you're Superman. Where could I possibly run to?"
Seeing that Peter did not seem to blame him, Reed slowly began to explain.
"So this technology of yours lets people pass through walls?"
It was almost like magic, and it was astonishing.
"Actually, this is only the preliminary version of my idea."
Reed spoke slowly, leaving everyone present even more shocked.
The preliminary version could already let people pass through walls. How unbelievable would the ultimate concept be?
"My original idea was to open a passage to some kind of special space. If two connected devices were activated at the same time, we could ignore space and distance and travel anywhere we wanted..."
Reed slowly described his originally insane idea.
"Isn't that just a technology-based Teleportation Gate?"
At that moment, even Peter could not help showing a hint of surprise in his eyes as he looked at Reed.
This guy was trying to create magic with technology.
At that moment, Peter had the urge to lock Reed in here forever and keep him under strict surveillance.
He finally understood the meaning of the saying: when Earth had no danger, Reed was the greatest danger.
Of course, if there was an organization even better at causing trouble, it would definitely be the one formed by Reed, Tony, and the others...
Back to Reed. As the smartest genius on Earth, he possessed incredible creativity.
But before his inventions succeeded, the technology he created carried intense unknown dangers.
Take this idea of creating a magical Teleportation Gate through technology, for example.
If he accidentally opened a door to some unknown dimension during an experiment, wouldn't the entire Earth be plunged into enormous danger along with him?
After all, the Marvel Universe contained all kinds of special and terrifying dimensions.
The famous ones included the Dark Dimension, Crimson Dimension, Hell Dimension, and so on.
"If you want to experiment with those strange ideas in your head again, you'd better inform me first."
Thinking of this, Peter could only warn Reed.
"Still, I'm fairly satisfied with the Nano-Suit you completed."
"It's just that the surface is too smooth and feels too metallic. I think it could be altered to better emphasize my muscle outline."
"The black exterior does look cool, and it feels mysterious and imposing, but it's too plain. I think you could add some elegant silver and gold lines or patterns."
"In short, I need that kind of... colorful black. You understand?"
Peter was fairly satisfied with the Nano-Suit, but he felt its appearance still needed some modifications.
"No problem. You just want it to look more 'low-key,' right? I know exactly how to do that. I've always been very low-key."
While everyone else was still trying to figure out what the hell colorful black was, Tony, who had returned to the laboratory from outside, instantly agreed to Peter's suggestion.
A few hours later, a figure streaked rapidly through the night sky.
Inside Tony Stark's Luxury Villa.
A figure suddenly appeared on the sofa.
"Alert... Sir, welcome home!"
Seeing the familiar figure suddenly appear in the villa and hurriedly search for a trash can, J.A.R.V.I.S. immediately cut off the alarm. The lights throughout the villa gradually turned on, welcoming its master home.
"Cough, cough, J.A.R.V.I.S., long time no see!"
After rinsing his mouth with expensive red wine from the wine cabinet, Tony flopped onto the sofa and lazily greeted J.A.R.V.I.S.
"Sir, would you like me to notify the others?"
J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice sounded again, asking for Tony's instructions.
"Forget it. It's too late tonight. Let them get some proper rest first. Notify them tomorrow morning."
Tony thought about it and declined.
"Understood, sir."
With J.A.R.V.I.S.'s confirmation, the villa fell silent once more.
"What an unforgettable experience."
Staring at the familiar ceiling, Tony continuously recalled the unusual events of his kidnapping.
"Superman... Nano-Suit..."
Muttering those words under his breath, Tony suddenly sat up from the sofa.
"J.A.R.V.I.S..."
"Sir, always at your service."
"Create a new research project. Call it—Anti..."
"Cough, cough. Let's call it Nano Armor MK1 instead."
Instantly rejecting that strange naming impulse, Tony slowly gave it a fairly normal name.
"Oh, right. Help me purchase and search for some experimental facilities and special materials around the world..."
"Understood, sir. The new project has been successfully created. Orders for the materials and experimental facilities have been placed and are being expedited for delivery..."
"Sir, do you have any further instructions?"
As J.A.R.V.I.S. spoke, Tony slowly sank into thought.
After a long while, Tony spoke again. "J.A.R.V.I.S., pull up all recent information on Superman."
"Lastly, find all comics about Superman..."
"Sir, didn't you previously say that only three-year-olds..."
"Cough, cough, J.A.R.V.I.S., I think you should learn how to speak with emotional intelligence so you don't embarrass your boss."
Tony, unable to escape the universal law of "it smells so good," declared that as long as he did not feel embarrassed, someone else would be embarrassed instead.
"Yes, sir. I am working hard on it..."
"Nanotechnology... You really have given my future a promising direction!"
Thinking of the Nano-Suit he had tried in the laboratory that day, a dazed smile appeared on Tony's face.
