Iron Man and Little Pepper

Peter continued to dart around the room.

But he soon realized he couldn't just keep dodging like this.

Before, when there was only one Iron Man Armor, he was actually quite relaxed.

Although the Iron Man Armor was controlled by an AI, the AI used "algorithms" and lacked human flexibility.

With Peter's insight and Spider-Sense, it was easy to handle.

So he wasn't flustered at all. In fact, he even took a break to get some water – he was a bit thirsty from all the running around.

But that was before.

Now, three Iron Man Armors, under the control of the intelligent system, were all coming at him.

They coordinated with each other, and their power increased significantly.

If the difficulty coefficient of facing one armor was 2 to the power of 1, which is 2, then facing three armors would be 2 to the power of 3, which is 8!

The power had increased by a factor of 8!

It was quite terrifying.

In this situation, if he continued to only dodge, he would become increasingly passive.

"I need to find a way to restrain two of them!" Peter thought, moving quickly.

When he passed a narrow area, Peter left behind some separation web fluid.

The separation web fluid exploded at the predetermined spot, turning into a tripwire.

An Iron Man Armor chasing him, moving too fast, was directly tripped.

At this moment, the delayed web bombs Peter had left on both sides of the tripwire suddenly triggered.

Bang!

Several web bombs exploded with extremely small time intervals, wrapping the Iron Man Armor layer after layer.

That Iron Man Armor was directly cocooned, much like how a spider wraps its prey with silk in a "hunting band."

With one armor out of the encirclement, Peter immediately felt the pressure greatly reduced.

So, he didn't stop. He continued to run along the walls and ceiling in the room.

The other two Iron Man Armors were still chasing him.

At a certain moment, he suddenly braked hard and shot webs from both hands simultaneously, sticking to the two Iron Man Armors.

The intelligent system detected his deceleration and immediately ordered the Iron Man Armors to slow down and turn back to chase him, but they fell right into Peter's trap.

Peter pulled hard on the webs, and the two Iron Man Armors crashed into each other, clattering to the floor.

Peter was startled: "Damn it, I didn't break Mr. Stark's armor, did I?"

"You kid, sneaking into my office and breaking my armor?" a voice suddenly sounded.

Immediately after, the elevator nearby stopped, and two people appeared inside.

Peter recognized both of them.

One was Tony Stark, Iron Man, whom Peter had seen before.

The other was a mature woman, Stark's rumored girlfriend and CEO of Stark Industries, Pepper Potts.

Of course, Peter hadn't met her, but he usually paid attention to Stark Industries, so he often saw her on Stark Industries' official website and in some interviews, which was why he recognized her at a glance.

"Kid, some people outside estimate my Iron Man Armors at $560 million each. Let's round it up, making it a neat 1.7 billion. How do you plan to pay? Credit card or cash? Or maybe you can work for me for life?" Tony Stark looked at Peter with a serious expression.

Seeing the two of them appear, Peter awkwardly jumped down from the ceiling, took off his Spider-Man mask, and stammered, "I, I'm sorry, Mr. Stark, Ms. Potts, I, that, I..."

Pepper Potts lightly patted Tony Stark's arm and gave him a playful glare: "You're scaring the child."

Tony Stark shrugged and snapped his fingers.

Click, click, click—

The armor fragments on the ground trembled, flew into the air, and in a few breaths, they reassembled.

On the other side, the armor bound by the webs sprayed flames, burning off all the webs on its surface.

After a short while, three pristine armors flew back to their storage location.

Only the mess in the room indicated what Peter had been doing there.

Peter finally understood that this "honest-looking" Stark was actually teasing him!

That made sense. He hadn't even used much force, mostly relying on clever maneuvers. How could he possibly damage these armors made of gold-titanium alloy?

And now that he thought about it, if each armor was $560 million, then three would be $1.68 billion, right?

How did it become 1.7 billion?

And there was the rounding up?

What a wicked capitalist!

However, after figuring this out, Peter relaxed.

This proved that Tony Stark was indeed joking with him.

"Come on, kid, sit over here," Pepper Potts walked over to Peter, took his hand, and led him to sit on the sofa.

Tony Stark, however, was already sitting there with his legs spread wide.

"So, tell me, Mr. Pajama Baby, why are you here instead of doing your community service?"

"I'm not Pajama Baby," Peter argued, but looking at the mess in the office, his tone softened involuntarily.

Fortunately, Tony Stark got down to business, which gave Peter an out.

He picked up his backpack and took out a test tube and a packaging bag.

The test tube contained the web fluid optical microscope glasses. Because this item would spoil and become unusable if left out of the sterile environment for too long, he could only take one test tube and store it in a tube of sterile water.

The packaging bag contained the SPC-120703 Polymer Biomass Fiber Material. Although it was a biomass fiber, it was actually the same as other polymer fibers, so it didn't have many storage requirements.

Peter placed the two items on the table, along with his proposal and research report, and pushed them towards Tony Stark.

Tony Stark picked up one with great interest.

Pepper Potts brought two drinks from the refrigerator, one for Tony and one for Peter.

Tony was initially distracted, but then he became a little more serious.

Seeing his reaction, Pepper also became curious.

At this moment, Pepper got herself another drink and sat down next to Tony.

Tony handed her the one he had finished reading: "Here, you take a look too, it's quite interesting."

Pepper placed her drink on the table and picked up the research report and proposal to read.

Watching their actions, Peter felt extremely nervous.

This felt very similar to his interview to get into Midtown High.

That time, it was for school.

This time, it was for investment, so he could better dedicate himself to being a superhero, and so Aunt May could live a better life!

A few minutes later, Tony and Pepper finished reading both items Peter had given them.

Tony looked at Peter with some surprise: "You made this yourself?"

Peter hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Even though it was developed in the world of the Amazing Spider-Man and while merged with the Amazing Spider-Man, it still counted as his development, right?
