New Element!
Tony Stark surveyed the remaining buildings and the slowly rotating globe in the center. The patterns he had sensed earlier became even more pronounced. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and Tony Stark spoke to J.A.R.V.I.S..
"Using buildings as a framework to construct protons and neutrons!"
As Tony Stark finished speaking, the remaining buildings on the virtual projection converged towards the center and were incorporated into the circular globe-shaped structure. Under J.A.R.V.I.S.'s calculations, they were arranged as points of light on the sphere according to a certain pattern.
After the final simulation, all the buildings disappeared, leaving only a sphere with a large number of light spots evenly distributed on its surface, floating in front of Tony Stark.
Tony Stark suddenly spread his arms wide in front of the floating orb of light, and the orb instantly grew larger, enveloping Tony Stark within it.
Those individual points of light are the basic particles that make up the elements!
This ball of light is the New Element that Howard left for Tony Stark!
"You've been dead for so many years, and you still want to teach me."
Tony Stark said, but couldn't help but laugh. This was a gift left to him by his father Howard!
"Sir, based on simulations, the New Element you discovered should be able to replace the palladium you are currently using."
J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice rang out in the laboratory.
Tony Stark slammed his hands together, and the points of light that filled the room quickly shrank back, transforming into a ball of light the size of a quail egg in his palm.
Tony Stark chuckled softly, his fingers gently pinching the orb that represented the New Element.
"Thanks, Dad!"
With this New Element, his palladium poisoning can be cured!
However, J.A.R.V.I.S. didn't finish his sentence.
"Unfortunately, it cannot be synthesized."
J.A.R.V.I.S. is right. Creating a New Element is not as simple as just having its structure. Creating a new element involves reconstructing it at the atomic level, which is not as simple as synthesizing a new compound.
However, Tony Stark was not discouraged. Just as Chen Mo said, he had already created the Iron Man suit, so how could creating New Element be difficult for him?
Just as Tony Stark was full of fighting spirit and about to start experimenting, the laboratory door was suddenly pushed open, and Chen Mo and Dr. Ethan walked in.
Tony Stark saw Chen Mo and immediately went to greet him excitedly.
"Dad, I've found New Element!"
Looking at the ball of light in Tony's hand, Chen Mo smiled and nodded.
"I knew this wouldn't be a problem for you!"
Then, Chen Mo turned his gaze to Tony Stark and asked with a smile.
"So, is it possible to manufacture it?"
Tony Stark smiled and nodded, speaking with confidence.
"No problem! It's just that it might take some time to conduct the experiments gradually, and the timeframe is hard to say!"
At this point, Tony Stark's expression turned somewhat grim. He knew his physical condition well; he could only hold on for a few more months at most. To be honest, he wasn't absolutely certain he could create the New Element before palladium poisoning killed him.
After all, creating New Element is extremely difficult, and even he could not do it easily. The experiment is also highly random. If you are lucky, you may succeed on the first try, but if you are unlucky, you may fail every time you try hundreds of times!
Seeing this, Chen Mo smiled and walked forward, took out a USB drive from his pocket, and tossed it to Tony Stark.
Tony Stark reached out and caught it, then looked at Chen Mo with a puzzled expression.
"You think I went to S.H.I.E.L.D.. and came back empty-handed? This is all your father's research on this New Element, including later research on manufacturing methods."
Upon hearing this, Tony Stark glanced down at the atomic structure of the New Element that he had painstakingly deciphered from the sand table model left by his father, Howard, and then looked at Chen Mo with a resentful expression.
If you have any readily available materials, just give them to me directly. You've made me waste all this time!
Despite Tony Stark's resentful gaze, Chen Mo remained unfazed.
"Wouldn't it be more rewarding to solve the puzzle yourself? Besides, Howard went to so much trouble to leave you with this riddle, wouldn't it be a waste for me to just give you the answer?"
Tony Stark recalls today as he first learns from Chen Mo that his father Howard, is not the selfish and cold-hearted arms dealer he had imagined, but one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.. He then finds the dusty archives, sees the video Howard left him, learns about his Howard's true feelings for him, and finally discovers the New Element his father left him in the sand table model that could change the world. He truly enjoyed the whole process.
"Okay, Dad, you're right!"
Tony Stark looked at Chen Mo helplessly and said.
Tony Stark then plugged the USB drive Chen Mo had given him into the computer and had J.A.R.V.I.S. project it onto the screen, quickly reviewing the contents.
The initial research section was quickly skipped over, and Tony Stark went straight to the structural diagram of the New Element. After comparing it with J.A.R.V.I.S.'s diagram, it was exactly the same as the atomic structure he had deduced from the sand table model!
Tony Stark then focused on reviewing the research on the creation of the New Element. Clearly, Howard had also conducted extensive research and experiments. Although he ultimately failed to create it, he had gained many valuable insights, which made Tony Stark's creation plan clearer.
Although the research data that Chen Mo brought could only serve as a reference, it saved him from many detours and greatly shortened the expected time to create the New Element. Tony Stark was now fully confident that he could create this New Element before his physical condition deteriorated!
With a wave of his hand, Tony Stark turned off the projection and walked excitedly to Chen Mo and Dr. Ethan.
"So?"
"Dr. Ethan asked with concern."
Tony Stark looked at the two of them and smiled confidently.
"Get ready for a major overhaul! Time to break the ice!"
Tony Stark said, glancing around the lab.
This laboratory is several hundred square meters in size, which is not small. However, an essential piece of equipment for creating New Element is a particle accelerator, which accelerates microparticles such as neutrons and protons that make up atoms in order to recombine new atomic structures!
The particle accelerator needed to produce this New Element is too large for this laboratory to accommodate!
Opening up the entire villa would be enough!
The particle accelerator is actually just a ring-shaped pipe. There's no need to demolish the entire villa; just making holes of a sufficiently large size in some of the walls will suffice.
