The recollection ends.
The two walked on the red carpet.
Luca tilted his head slightly and whispered in Jessica's ear.
"Smile naturally, darling. You look like a secret agent preparing to assassinate the president. Relax, tonight's a good night."
Jessica was startled.
Secret Service agent to assassinate the president?
Was this guy just saying it casually, or did he sense something?
She quickly adjusted her breathing, making her smile appear more genuine, and pressed her body more softly against Luca's arm.
"Okay, boss."
Enter the clubhouse lobby.
A magnificent golden dome, melodious classical music, and socialites everywhere holding wine glasses.
As soon as Luca appeared, he immediately became the focus of the entire stadium.
After all, this is currently the most popular superhero in the world, a walking traffic magnet.
Several portly business tycoons and two high-ranking military officers in uniform immediately came forward to greet them.
"Oh! Luca! It's a pleasure to meet you!"
" Mr. Superman! Last night's performance was absolutely amazing!"
Luca chatted with them with ease, a perfectly timed smile on his face.
Jessica stood obediently beside him, playing the role of a decorative assistant, occasionally changing his glass of champagne.
" Luca, seriously."
A gray-haired lieutenant general lowered his voice and asked with a face full of curiosity.
"Now that you possess such immense power, aren't there any side effects? Or rather, is there any limit to this power?"
Upon hearing this question...
Jessica, who was standing nearby, immediately perked up her ears.
This is precisely her most important task: to find out Luca's weaknesses!
Luca glanced at the lieutenant general, then deliberately pretended to be drunk and let out a burp.
He put his arm around Jessica's waist, pulled her closer to him, and then leaned close to the lieutenant general, lowering his voice mysteriously.
"General, for the sake of our old friendship, I'll only tell you this."
Luca's gaze became somewhat unfocused.
"Do you really think I'm invincible? Actually, I'm not at all."
"My body burns energy very quickly. I need to be exposed to the sun for at least two hours every day to maintain my bodily functions."
"If it's a cloudy or rainy day, or if I don't see the sun for several days in a row, my strength will be greatly reduced. At night, I can't even open a bottle cap."
Upon hearing this, the lieutenant general's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
Meanwhile, Jessica, standing to the side, was already overjoyed!
Weakness! This is the fatal weakness!
It turns out he needs to rely on solar energy!
He's useless if you cut off his light source or wear him down at night!
Excellent, excellent, truly effortless!
Jessica suppressed her excitement and memorized this important information.
Luca glanced at Jessica's slightly trembling eyelashes and sneered inwardly.
Write it down, write it down.
Take more notes.
When Hydra comes looking for trouble on a rainy night, I'll show them what a walking, breathing sun looks like.
"What about Tony?" another business tycoon interjected curiously.
"His armor is simply incredible. Doesn't it have any weaknesses?"
Luca waved his hand, looking disgusted.
Tony is even funnier.
"You really think that suit of armor is perfect? Actually, its energy system is extremely fragile."
Luca moved even closer, his voice so soft that only a few people nearby could hear it.
"The armor's backup power core is actually stored in the second safe in the underground garage of the Malibu villa."
"That safe didn't even have a high-security combination lock; the combination was Pepper Potts ' birthday: 0529."
"If someone sneaks in and takes the backup power, the armor will turn into a pile of scrap metal in less than half an hour. He's just a turtle hiding in a metal shell."
Jessica's heart was beating faster and faster.
Good heavens! Is this guy an idiot?!
He actually blurted out such classified information at a party?!
Was it because he was drunk, and given his usually outspoken nature, that he was so unguarded?
Regardless, this is absolutely the kind of intelligence Hydra has been dreaming of!
Once we obtain the backup power source, we can unlock the secrets of the Iron Man Armor!
Jessica was already planning her route to infiltrate the Malibu villa.
Meanwhile, Luca, holding a wine glass, was glancing at Jessica out of the corner of his eye, admiring the excitement gleaming in her eyes.
He was about to burst out laughing.
Go get it, dear assistant.
There were indeed things in the safe, but there was no backup power source.
Instead, it was Tony's newly developed miniature high-voltage electric shock bomb, plus a whole can of concentrated skunk spray.
The safe will open the moment the correct password is entered.
It's guaranteed to make you feel like you're in heaven, and incidentally, it'll leave you smelling irresistible for the next month.
"Oh dear, I think I've had too much to drink."
Luca rubbed his temples and leaned most of his weight on Jessica.
" Miss Jones, please help me to the sofa over there to rest for a bit. And could you massage my temples while you're at it?"
Jessica stumbled as he pressed her down.
But because he had received crucial information, he suddenly didn't find Luca so annoying anymore.
"Okay, Luca."
Jessica helped him to the sofa in the corner and sat him down.
Luca closed his eyes and leaned his head back on the sofa.
"Give it a little more pressure, Miss Jones. If it feels good, I'll give you a raise tomorrow."
Jessica reached out and gently pressed his temples.
"Okay, boss."
She stared at Luca's handsome face, a cold smile playing on her lips.
Laugh, Stark.
You foolish Playboy.
Once Hydra has everything, I will personally snap your neck.
Luca closed his eyes, feeling the pressure of Jessica's fingers, and sneered inwardly.
Press it, you little spy.
Press it more often.
When you go to open the safe, I'll personally film your miserable state and send it to Tony as a joke.
Tony was just recently worried that no one would trigger the traps he had designed.
