"Impossible!"
Tony took the helmet back from Li Chuan, put it on, and then instructed his AI butler:
"J.A.R.V.I.S., scan my body and analyze my current physical condition!"
"Yes, sir."
A moment later, J.A.R.V.I.S.'s rich, magnetic voice reported from within the Iron Man suit:
"Scanning. Scan complete. A scan of your body confirms that you are currently poisoned.
The poisoning is concentrated in the chest. Cause of poisoning: the Arc Reactor's palladium element has seeped into your body while supplying power.
Sir, if you continue using the Mark suit, it will accelerate the toxin's spread. In three months, once the toxin has spread throughout your body, you will die immediately."
"Find a solution."
Tony steadied his emotions before giving another command.
His Mark suit not only had implanted body-scanning equipment that could assess his physical condition, but it could also immediately provide the best recommendations, making it not much worse than the world's top doctors.
Of course, the actual treatment still required a hospital. The suit had no surgical functions or corresponding medication.
Soon, J.A.R.V.I.S. replied again:
"Sir, at the current level of medical science, there is no complete cure unless a new element capable of replacing palladium can be found and a new Arc Reactor developed.
Alternatively, ceasing use of the Mark suit to reduce palladium intake, along with consuming large amounts of chlorophyll-rich vegetable juice, may also provide some relief."
"Using your method, how long can I live?"
Tony asked with a frown.
"If you do not use the Mark suit and consume sufficient chlorophyll daily, you can live for two years. If you continue using the Mark suit while consuming sufficient chlorophyll daily, you can live for half a year."
J.A.R.V.I.S. understood what Tony meant and very intelligently listed both possibilities.
Yet after hearing that, Tony fell
