"My friend, the chief is very disappointed in you. We can't bet on a good-for-nothing. This is your last chance."
"You guys handle that Asian kid, I'll take care of Tony."
Obadiah showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever at being called trash, nor did he dare to express any dissatisfaction.
Over the years, Obadiah has been well aware of just how terrifying Hydra's power truly is. For example, former S.H.I.E.L.D.. director Alexander Pierce was actually a Hydra agent.
When he first heard the news, he was almost dumbfounded.
" Stark Industries is very important to us. We hope you won't fail again, or you should know the consequences."
"That Eastern kid is a bit strange," Obadiah remarked.
This is not your concern.
After speaking, the other party hung up the phone immediately.
Obadiah remained silent for a while, then gave an order to his secretary.
"Buy me a pizza."
On the other side, Ling Yi had already followed Pepper Potts to the lobby of Stark Tower.
Just then, Obadiah drove out of the underground parking lot and headed to Tony's seaside villa, perfectly avoiding a collision between the two groups.
"Mr. Ling Yi, thank you so much for your help to Tony. By saving Tony, you have essentially saved the entire Stark Family."
Ling Yi was speechless. " Pepper, you've thanked me four times already, this is the fifth."
But I still feel it's not enough.
Pepper was genuinely grateful to Ling Yi. Although Tony hadn't told her about Ling Yi's abilities, he did tell Pepper that Ling Yi had saved him and Yinsen's lives; without Ling Yi, Tony might have been dead.
This caused Pepper to wake up countless times at night, followed by endless fear.
It's hard to imagine how she would live without Tony.
"Okay, if you really want to thank me, do me a small favor."
"You said."
"I want to buy a house. You should know that I'm currently living in a hotel, but living in a hotel indefinitely isn't a long-term solution. Ideally, I'd like a street-facing house with a lobby, as I'd like to start a small business."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away," Pepper said very seriously.
"Mr. Ling Yi, S.H.I.E.L.D.. can handle any procedural issues for you," Coulson interjected.
Pepper glanced at Coulson, then coldly swept her gaze over Natasha, who was standing next to Coulson.
"No need. Does the Stark Industries really think we can't even handle something this simple?"
That's right, not only Ling Yi came this time to find evidence against Obadiah, but Coulson and Natasha also came.
Ever since learning that Natasha and Coulson were both secret agents, Pepper Potts has harbored a deep resentment towards them.
Especially with Natasha, this woman had repeatedly shown her charm in front of Tony. If he hadn't been firm in his stance, Natasha probably would have succeeded.
When Ling Yi first saw Natasha, he was honestly stunned by her Heavenly People.
As expected of Black Widow, her figure and looks are top-notch. No wonder some people are willing to drink her bathwater; her charm is off the charts.
Pepper was hostile towards Natasha, but Ling Yi was not.
Having seen all the Marvel movies, he knew very well what kind of person Natasha was.
While watching The Final Battle, Natasha's death deeply moved Ling Yi.
This woman, who never lived for herself in her entire life, is a truly admirable and remarkable person.
The group quickly arrived at Obadiah's room and successfully found evidence of weapons transactions on Obadiah's Computer.
Ling Yi and his team are doing very well, Obadiah's side is also doing very well.
Obadiah swiftly lulled Tony into a false sense of security, stole the Miniature Arc Reactor, and quickly returned to Stark Industries ' underground laboratory.
Obadiah had already received the message when Pepper started using his Computer.
Plans can't keep up with Changes. Before Hydra could even make a move against Ling Yi, he Pepper Ling Yi already come knocking on their door, much to Obadiah's frustration.
But now the die is cast and the die is cast.
With the Miniature Arc Reactor, the Iron Monger could be put into use.
With the Iron Monger's power, as long as Tony and Ling Yi are eliminated, everything will still be within the plan.
Obadiah's Computer contained not only numerous weapon sales records but also information about the Iron Monger.
"We have to stop him," Coulson said, frowning.
"Go to the basement."
After Natasha finished speaking, she ran straight out of the office, with Coulson following closely behind.
Ling Yi and Pepper exchanged a glance.
"Their motives are impure; they want the Iron Monger's manufacturing technology."
As a strong woman, Pepper has always helped Tony manage the Stark Industries; her personal abilities and Wisdom are undoubtedly exceptional.
Let's go.
Ling Yi wasn't surprised. The Iron Monger's data was there for all to see; with such excellent stats, it would be strange if Natasha and Coulson weren't tempted.
"Ding, you have sensed Obadiah's hostility towards you. You have absorbed 3 points of Hostility Points."
"Ding! Level 2 Bad Luck successfully activated. Target: Obadiah. The target will remain in a Level 2 Bad Luck state for 24 hours."
"Ding! Successfully Plunder 3 points of the target's constitution."
Host attribute panel:
Strength: 4 (5 for a normal adult)
Agility: 4 (5 for a normal adult)
Physical fitness: 3 (5 for a normal adult)
Mental state: 6 (5 for normal adults)
Ability: None
Bloodline: Ordinary Human
Warehouse: Constitution Orb (+3 Constitution) x1...
Ling Yi wasn't surprised by the Hostility Points; this guy probably hated him to death a long time ago.
Level 2 bad luck; it just means Obadiah is going to have a really bad time.
The 3 points of constitution gained through Plunder are quite valuable.
Obadiah is just an ordinary person. With 3 points of his constitution taken away, isn't he useless from the start?
And that was indeed the case. Just as Obadiah started up the Iron Monger, he suddenly Weakened Sensation wash over him.
With only a sliver of physical strength remaining, Obadiah's body was in a dangerous state, on the verge of fainting due to his weakened state.
Despite his Weakened Sensation, Obadiah piloted the Iron Monger straight out of the laboratory.
They ran right into Natasha and Coulson, who were chasing after them.
"Oh my god..." Natasha exclaimed, quickly hiding behind a wall.
"You little bug!" Obadiah Taunt.
Then, they prepared to use a miniature Rocket to take care of Natasha.
However, at that moment, something unexpected happened.
To Natasha and Coulson's astonishment, the miniature Rocket launcher that should have bounced off the Iron Monger's shoulder got stuck.
The Rocket that were supposed to be launched exploded on the spot because the launch pad was jammed.
It's important to know that the Iron Monger had more than one Rocket.
The continuous explosions sent the Iron Monger Iron Monger sprawling about, and before it could take two steps, it collapsed to the ground... collapsed!
The close-range explosion sent parts flying everywhere from the upper part of the Iron Monger, but fortunately, the Iron Monger's defenses were indeed impressive.
Obadiah was quite shocked, but he did not die on the spot.
But at this moment, he was in a terrible state.
Damaged parts caused Iron Monger's upper body to stiffen. Obadiah managed to stand up, but after only two steps, the armor began to Disassembly.
After a series of clanging and banging, the Iron Monger was reduced to a pile of parts.
Just then, Ling Yi and Pepper walked over.
"Wow, can anyone tell me what happened?" Pepper Potts asked in surprise.
Obadiah, kneeling amidst a pile of parts, looked utterly disheveled.
His face was pale and unsightly, and he was Bleeding from all seven orifices.
The explosion had given him quite a shock, and given his already limited physique, if he had a health bar, Obadiah would be down to the bare minimum.
"Is this the power of the curse?" Obadiah looked at Ling Yi as he approached, his eyes filled with shock and resentment.
" Tony, why do so many people help you when you're just a rich young master? What makes you so special?"
Ling Yi laughed and said, "Why? Because he's the Protagonist."
At that moment, a booming sound came from the sky, and then a figure in Hong Jin descended from the sky.
"That's right, I'm the Protagonist, Obadiah, you deserve to die!"
Tony's last shred of affection for Obadiah has now completely vanished.
Obadiah almost killed him before; if Yinsen hadn't been in the villa, he probably would be dead by now.
Obadiah already deaf due to his ruptured eardrums, but seeing that Tony was still alive, he knew that his chances of survival were slim.
His last breath escaped, and he collapsed to his knees amidst a pile of parts.
Obadiah died even more decisively than in the original storyline.
The Iron Monger armor was destroyed as soon as it appeared, and the scene where it was supposed to fight Iron Man never happened.
I wonder if Tony will ever say "I am Iron Man " again.
I always feel that without Tony's line, the Marvel Universe seems to lack a certain charm.
"Hey, Miss Agent, you'd better put down what you're holding."
Just as Ling Yi was lost in thought, Pepper's cold voice suddenly rang out.
Natasha shrugged; she was currently holding a Miniature Arc Reactor emitting a blue glow, seemingly about to stuff it into the small bag at her waist.
"I need to report this matter and establish a legal basis for Obadiah's case; this is the evidence."
Natasha made up a reason on the spot.
"Put it down!" Tony said, raising his hand and pointing his palm cannon at Natasha.
"Enemies or friends, I think S.H.I.E.L.D.. should be able to distinguish between them."
Tony added in a cold voice.
Natasha was also helpless; it wasn't her idea to take it, she was just following orders.
Through the earpiece, Nick Fury's exasperated voice came through, "Put it down!"
Nick was very envious of the Iron Man Armor technology, especially the Miniature Arc Reactor technology, but he cared more about Tony's attitude.
Tony was already a chosen member of the Avengers, and he didn't want to turn Tony into an enemy of S.H.I.E.L.D..
"Receive!"
Natasha deliberately put her hand to her ear and said this to Tony, as if to tell him that she was also following orders and that "stealing" was not her intention.
"Okay, perfect ending. Go home and get some sleep. I'll come find you again tomorrow." Ling Yi glanced at Tony, turned around, yawned, and walked out.
Tony didn't say anything; he figured he and Pepper would have to clean up the mess.
