I Hadn't Even Used My Strength, and You Were Already Down?

"Sir, look up!"

A red highlighted marker suddenly appeared inside Tony's mask, falling straight from the sky.

Bang!!!

The marker crashed down heavily right between the two combatants in the blink of an eye.

It literally blasted a hole in the asphalt road, kicking up a cloud of dust that enveloped the entire scene.

A figure was faintly visible amidst the dust, seemingly kneeling on the ground on one knee in a strange posture.

"Lin, is that you?" Tony tentatively called out.

"Cough, cough..."

"Hey~ Tony"

Unharmed, Lin Feng waved his hand to clear away the dust and walked out from the crater.

He greeted Tony somewhat awkwardly.

It was his first time flying, and in order to save Tony, he had gone a bit too fast.

He had wanted to learn Tony's armored landing style for a cool entrance, but his landing wasn't very practiced.

"What? The? Fuck?" Tony said, word by word.

His gaze swept back and forth between Lin Feng and the sky with a mix of astonishment and doubt, finally landing on the huge crater.

"Man! Did you fall from space?"

"Nonono"

Lin Feng quickly shook his head in denial. How could anyone use such a humiliating description?

"To be exact, I flew down!"

"It's just that it was my first time flying, so I wasn't very used to it." Lin Feng chuckled in defense.

Seeing that Tony was still looking at the crater he had smashed, Lin Feng couldn't help himself.

"Stop looking at this crater! It was just an accident, trust me!"

Lin Feng's words pulled Tony's gaze back.

"Oh! Man, I don't even know what to say." Tony pointed at Lin Feng.

"You're definitely an alien!"

"No, I'm an Earthling!" Lin Feng retorted.

"What Earthling can fly?" Tony countered.

...Lin Feng was left speechless.

"I can explain..."

Before Lin Feng could explain, Obadiah at the side saw the two chatting as if no one else was around, and his anger instantly flared up.

Buzz!

With a mechanical roar, Obadiah raised his mechanical arm and aimed it at Lin Feng.

"Hey! Black-haired kid!" Obadiah called out.

"Hmm?" Lin Feng turned to look. "Are you calling me?"

Obadiah opened his mask and nodded. "I don't care what your relationship with Tony Stark is, I'll give you one minute to get out of here!" As he spoke, the huge mechanical arm rapidly clicked with the sound of shifting, popping out a mini-rocket launcher.

"You wouldn't want to make sacrifices for a playboy like this!"

Obadiah didn't fire the rockets immediately; the crater Lin Feng had smashed made him somewhat wary of him.

His only target was Tony Stark, and for an entity of unknown strength like Lin Feng, Obadiah didn't want to provoke him too much.

It would be best if he could leave; if not, Obadiah was going to test whether Lin Feng could block rocket artillery!

"Oh! I can't agree to that! Tony gave me a villa as payment!!" Lin Feng touched his chin and said feignedly.

As soon as his voice fell, a boom rang out.

Obadiah's rocket, trailing smoke, hit Lin Feng accurately.

Striking first to gain the upper hand, the cunning Obadiah fired without hesitation, and a huge "fireworks" instantly exploded on the scene.

"Lin!" Tony called out anxiously! Lin Feng didn't have the Mark 3 on him; if Lin Feng kicked the bucket because of this, Tony felt he would live in guilt for a long time.

"Oh! I'm fine! Tony"

Amidst the dust, Lin Feng slowly walked out.

To be honest, taking a rocket hit just now had startled him too.

Yet the rocket hitting his body felt like a mere tickle; the firepower was just lacking!

The corners of Lin Feng's mouth couldn't help but curl up. Man of Steel, truly amazing!

Seeing that Lin Feng was completely unharmed! Tony and Obadiah both stared with wide eyes.

Not to mention a broken skin, protected by the Bio-Force Field, even Lin Feng's clothes didn't have a single tear.

"What kind of monster!!" Obadiah was shocked and angry.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Three more rockets struck Lin Feng back-to-back.

Yet they still failed to cause even the slightest bit of damage to Lin Feng.

"Are you tickling me?!" Lin Feng curled his lip in disdain, feeling somewhat bored.

Under the abilities of the Man of Steel, attacks like Obadiah's seemed dull and naive.

You couldn't really blame Obadiah; Superman's abilities against Obadiah were completely unreasonable.

In front of Lin Feng, Obadiah didn't have a shred of a chance of winning.

Lin Feng squatted down slightly and said, "There is an old saying in my hometown: courtesy demands reciprocity."

"Take a blast from me too!" As his voice fell, Lin Feng accelerated instantly and punched Obadiah in the chest before the latter could react.

Bang! A massive impact echoed, and the bulky mechanical body instantly flew backward.

Lin Feng's punch directly broke the sound barrier, sending Obadiah flying dozens of meters away and embedding him deep into the ruins.

Poor Obadiah didn't even get the chance to drop a few more harsh words before punching his ticket.

Superman's fists were truly terrifying...

Lin Feng blew on his fist disdainfully. "Is it over already? Boring."

Current-generation Iron Man suits were simply vulnerable under Lin Feng's fists.

Perhaps only after the Mark 50 series in the later stages could they last a few more seconds under Lin Feng's hands.

"JARVIS, did you see that?" Tony, who was watching from the sidelines, asked. Lin Feng's punch completely exceeded his cognition.

It didn't look like something a human could possibly throw at all.

"I saw it, sir!" JARVIS replied.

"Mr. Lin Feng's punch just now broke the speed of sound. It's simply unimaginable."

"Also, Obadiah is dead, sir."

JARVIS quantified and displayed the data of Lin Feng's punch just then. That punch had directly broken the sound barrier, and Obadiah had literally breathed his last under that single strike.

The armor on his chest was beaten inward until it caved, directly crushing Obadiah's body flat.

"Hoo..."

Tony let out a long breath and instructed, "Contact the logistics team to clean up the scene, JARVIS."

The things that had happened over the past two days were too absurd; whether it was Obadiah's betrayal or the strength Lin Feng displayed upon his return, Tony felt he needed some quiet time.

"Can my reactor still be used? I mean, that..." Tony pointed at Obadiah's mecha slumped not far away.

"It's damaged, sir. Mr. Lin Feng's punch happened to hit the reactor area."

"Fine." Tony said speechlessly; he would have to build another reactor when he got back.

"Hey! Tony, how was it? My punch just now!" Lin Feng, having ended the battle with a single punch, lacked excitement and ran over to ask Tony, who had been dazed for quite a while.

"You're just a monster, Lin!" Tony couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"Don't deny it. If you told me you were an alien, I don't think anyone would doubt it!"

"But now isn't the time to talk about this. We should leave. My people will handle the scene," Tony said.

"A little longer, and those annoying reporters will swarm us again."

Lin Feng nodded and asked, "Alright Tony, so, I'll come find you tomorrow?"

Knowing that Tony had just been through a major battle and needed to rest, Lin Feng didn't say much and prepared to fly back to his own villa.

"Wait! Lin, take me back to my villa. I have some questions to ask you by the way!" Tony reached out to stop Lin Feng, who was about to take off...

Lin Feng nodded again, stepped forward to hook his arm around Tony's shoulder, and said, "Hold on tight!"

The next second, man and iron shot straight up into the sky, flying swiftly toward Tony's villa. At this moment, Pepper was also on her way there.

Back at the villa, with JARVIS's assistance, Tony took off his armor and grabbed a bag of ice to press against his head to reduce the swelling.

Pulling out a bottle of whiskey once more, Tony sat down opposite Lin Feng, who had been waiting for a while.

During the wait, Lin Feng had turned on the television, which was broadcasting live coverage of the battle outside Stark Industries.

"Hey! Tony, you're famous!" Lin Feng said with a full smile, pointing at the screen and teasing.

"I've always been famous!" Tony Stark rolled his eyes and looked at the TV as well.

Tonight's battle had been quickly captured by reporters as a hot topic. Although it wasn't like the original timeline where the Stark Industries reactor itself got blown up, these reporters swarmed like cats seeing fish, scrambling to report the course of events while constantly exaggerating.

Who knew which daring person had taken the footage, so clear and from such close range.

On the screen, Stark wearing armor could be seen fighting back and forth with Obadiah, and the report had even made the evening news.

The speed of internet transmission quickly allowed this information to occupy major forums and video websites.

The television continuously replayed the entire process of the event.

In the video, Iron Man gradually found himself at a disadvantage. After all, the current Tony lacked combat experience, and with the reactor's energy running low, he failed to gain any real upper hand against Obadiah.

Suddenly, the footage shifted. Lin Feng's figure appeared on the screen, and his bizarre landing style alongside a punch that broke the sound barrier directly drew gasps from the host, prompting countless onlookers to erupt into yet another wave of heated discussions.

Some guessed that Lin Feng was a superpower user, others guessed he was an alien, and some even guessed he was a secret weapon of Stark Industries. However, the most popular theory by far was that Lin Feng was a mutant.

Seeing this scene, Tony couldn't help laughing out loud, looking at Lin Feng with teasing eyes. "You're famous now too!"

This... The handsome fellow was left speechless. His own face was clearly visible on the screen, making Lin Feng feel rather awkward.

He had let his guard down; why hadn't he remembered to find a piece of cloth to cover his face!

Still, it wasn't a huge problem. He was bound to show his face sooner or later, or where else would his Reputation Points come from?

Ding~ Congratulations to the host for completing the mission, obtaining 1,000,000 Reputation Points and one Black Superman Suit.

The system's voice rang out, settling the rewards for the mission.

Lin Feng opened the system inventory, where a black suit lay quietly inside.

Black Superman Suit: A Superman suit made of special material, featuring unique technology for recovering stamina and healing injuries, while also possessing the ability to enhance the absorption of solar radiation.

Seeing the powerful suit, Lin Feng's mood instantly improved, but the rewards didn't end there.

"In this incident, the host is expected to gain over 1,000,000 Reputation Points; the exact Reputation Points will still require time to ferment," the system's pleasant prompt chimed in.
