Tony Stark's Shock!

The reactor was connected to a detection device, Howard quickly detected the working status of the new reactor.

"Sir, the reactor has received its updated core and is operating normally!"

"Very good!"

Upon hearing this, Dr. Ethan exclaimed excitedly.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., what are the reactor's output power and total energy values?"

Chen Mo asked, curious about just how powerful this new energy source, which Howard described as being many times more powerful than a nuclear reactor, actually was, as the movie didn't show it in detail.

"Testing in progress, conducting full-power operation test..."

As J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice rang out, the Arc Reactor on the experimental platform quickly shone brightly. After a moment, J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice sounded again.

"Sir, after the Fourth Generation Arc Reactor was replaced with a new energy core, its maximum output power is five times that of the original. Moreover, its current energy consumption is negligible. Preliminary estimates suggest that the total energy of the fourth-generation reactor is at least a hundred times that of the third generation!"

The three were thrilled upon hearing this. It not only meant that the Iron Man suit could have greater power and endurance, but also represented a more powerful new energy source that could change the world!

The Third-generation Arc Reactor, which originally used palladium metal plates as its energy core, was designed to power the Iron Man suit in combat. Its output power and endurance were basically sufficient to support a high-intensity battle.

However, for fighter jets, tanks, or even larger Sky Carrier, the original Third-generation Arc Reactor are no longer sufficient. To solve the power and range issues, a large number of reactors are needed, but that would be far too expensive!

Therefore, the Sky Carrier of the Strategic Defense, Attack and Logistics Agency uses a nuclear reactor.

However, even if they wanted to use the Arc Reactor without regard to cost, they didn't have the technology. Apart from S.H.I.E.L.D.., which was operating behind the scenes and was headed by Howard Stark, the true inventor of the Arc Reactor, only Howard's son, Tony Stark, possessed the technology.

Needless to say, S.H.I.E.L.D.. only used the Arc Reactor on himself and his Iron Man suit, without putting it on the market. Even if Stark Fury wanted it Tony, he couldn't get it!

If the Third-generation Arc Reactor could only power small devices, such as Iron Man suit, then the current Fourth Generation Arc Reactor, with five times the output power, is sufficient to power the engines of the Sky Carrier. Only four reactors are needed to power the entire Sky Carrier, and at least a hundred times the total energy value can keep the Sky Carrier in flight for a long time, ensuring a sufficiently long combat readiness time.

This is only a preliminary estimate. After all, the reactor's energy reserves are so high that the consumption in a short period of time is not obvious, and the error is relatively large. After J.A.R.V.I.S. conducted tests for a sufficient period of time, the final total energy value was more than 300 times that of the Third-generation Arc Reactor!

Even at full power, with five times the original energy consumption, the Iron Man suit's battery life has increased by at least sixty times!

As long as he doesn't fight frequently, Tony Stark could go for many years without needing to replace his reactor!

After confirming the reactor's stability, Tony Stark eagerly fitted the new Fourth Generation Arc Reactor to his chest.

The newly installed reactor shone brightly, and Tony Stark felt a powerful and clean energy reaction in his chest. He knew that his life was finally saved!

All of this was made possible by the New Element and research materials left behind by his father, Howard.

However, a question arose in Tony Stark's mind: why didn't his father leave the research data with him, but instead left it with S.H.I.E.L.D..?

Without Chen Mo, he would never have obtained that research data, nor would he have been able to successfully create this New Element so quickly.

As Tony Stark recalled the research materials he had previously reviewed, his doubts deepened. He had a feeling that he had overlooked something important!

Tony Stark gave Chen Mo a strange look, forgetting about the telekinesis they had discussed earlier, and spoke directly into thin air.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., retrieve my father's research data from before."

"Yes, sir!"

As soon as J.A.R.V.I.S. finished speaking, a virtual screen unfolded in front of Tony Stark.

Frowning, Tony Stark reviewed the research data once more, but this time he looked at it more carefully and focused on different aspects.

Seeing Tony Stark's strange behavior, Dr. Ethan turned to Chen Mo and asked in confusion.

What's wrong with him?

Looking at Tony Stark's expression, Chen Mo guessed why he did this, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

"He must have discovered something interesting."

A few minutes later, Tony Stark suddenly became excited, then looked up sharply at Chen Mo and asked.

"Father! My father, he..."

As he spoke, Tony Stark's voice trembled slightly.

"Is he still alive?!"

Dr. Ethan looked astonished upon hearing this and couldn't help but turn to look at Chen Mo beside him.

Chen Mo met Tony Stark's anxious and complicated gaze with a smile and nodded.

"That's right!"

Upon hearing this, Tony Stark, though mentally prepared, still froze on the spot, and Dr. Ethan also looked incredulous.

Actually, even before Tony Stark learned that Sharon's parents, Captain America Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter, had actually faked their deaths instead of being frozen in the sea, he wondered if his father might still be alive. However, at the time, it was just a casual thought. Steve and Peggy were the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.. and powerful Super Hero, while his father was just an arms dealer, ultimately just an intelligent but ordinary person.

Later, when he learned from Chen Mo that his father was also one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.., this idea resurfaced.

However, as a genius scientist, Tony Stark knew very well that ordinary people could not accept cryopreservation. His father, Howard, was just a scientist, not Super Hero with superhuman physical abilities like Steve and Carter. If he were to enter the cryo-chamber, he would simply freeze to death.

So Tony Stark put that speculation aside.

However, Tony Stark discovered a problem in this research data.

Previously, Tony Stark was so eager to find the right way to create the New Element that his attention was focused on the experiment and he paid no attention to anything else.
