The Stark Paradox

Chapter 20 Iron Woman 02

"Where did these Decepticons come from? Why did Jarvis suddenly appear over New York when Jarvis didn't find the signal at all?" Tasha turned her wrist, and the laser on her hand drew an arc to The wing of the fighter jet flying in the air was cut off, and the opponent lost his balance and fell to the ground crookedly. Then Iron Skin shot a shot without hesitation, stretched out his hand and waved to her to express the gratitude among the fighters.

"It's Ludiqiao." The nearby ambulance mercilessly performed a craniotomy on the enemy close by with the surgical ax that terrified everyone nearby, and replied, "A kind of technology that can reach the earth in an instant." Any corner... Originally this technology was used for interstellar teleportation... but I guess the Decepticons don't have enough resources for a space bridge."

"Oh, sounds like curvature teleportation? I guess you haven't seen Star Trek...I recommend it, it's pretty good." Tasha knocked on her internal line while cooperating with the ambulance's movements to completely nail the enemy to death. "Jarvis? What's going on over there in the building?"

"The evacuation is complete, madam, but it looks like the enemy would rather engage in street fighting than attack buildings, so no problem here for now."

"Honey, I can hear the loneliness in your tone. That's not how I set up positions for your people." Tasha flew over the falling rocks on the tall buildings and swooped down to pick up a person who was about to be hit from the side of the street. Kid, said to his butler.

She put the rescued child in her hand to a relatively safe place three streets away, and then flew into the sky again. Looking at the dilapidated streets and the stalemate in the battle, she felt a call from an emergency line.

Ever since she got Desperate, the mobile phone has become a dispensable decoration for Tasha. She divided her mind from the battle situation and connected the phone directly in her mind, "Ms. Stark, can you explain to me?" What are you doing?!"

On the other end of the phone was a somewhat exasperated voice, and Tasha could even imagine the bearded and staring figure with her eyes closed—as long as Nick Fury’s one-eyed eyes were casually brought in, the scene would become even more realistic—as opposed to Comparing the other party's voice, her answer was a little casual, "I don't seem to understand what you mean, General Hawke?"

"Don't make fun of me, Stark! What's going on with the robot war over New York right now?! I got a call from the President himself!!!"

"You don't ask the aggressor about this kind of thing, but you come to ask me, the victimized private entrepreneur?" Tasha rolled her eyes in the armor...but no one knew her expression, and she flashed a thrilling look to the side at the same time She dodged a tiger's arm--the latter's movement made her feel like she was repelling flies--then she saw a bullet accurately hit the machine's joint, and the next second it came out of the joint. A small explosion scrapped the hand.Tasha took this opportunity to raise an arm, and the repulsion cannon accurately hit one of the enemy's eyes.

Only then did she turn her head and waved to the white-haired man in black and holding a strangely shaped gun standing beside the old-fashioned car.

"Stark! Did you listen to me!" At this time, General Hawk's roar came again from inside.

"..." Tasha frowned and turned down the deafening voice, "So at this time, shouldn't you send your plane over to support?! No, don't be a nuclear bomb! Did you hear me! I don't want to deal with it When you are an enemy, you still bother to deal with your pig teammates."

"Stark, I don't have time for a joke." Apparently the person on the other end of the line didn't take her words seriously, and thought the poor joke was ill-timed.

"Yeah, I'm not free either." Tasha murmured to herself after the other party decisively cut off the communication, and her voice cheered up in the next second, "Jarvis? Is it time to bring the new brother out? "

"madam...Mark 12 still needs to be fully tested..."

"Jarvis, my dad said, do it first." Tasha let out a long breath.

After three seconds of silence, the water surface of the Hudson River began to rippling, gradually violently turbulent as if boiling from within, and within less than a minute, a giant machine flew out from the bottom of the river like a warhead. A signal referring to an arc reactor in the heart of New York City.

"What the hell are you?" Jazz was playing close combat with two Decepticons who were a head taller than him.Jazz had never hated his short stature so much for a moment, and then he saw a huge shadow appearing from behind a Decepticon, grabbing the enemy and smashing it hard on the smashed building opposite.

This guy with the same size as his race has a completely unfamiliar face, but an extremely familiar color scheme.Jazz looked at the blue light in the other's long and narrow eyes, and asked hesitantly, "Tasha?"

"Anti-Transformers armor." The red humanoid machine waved to him, and then made a gesture, "It looks like you are shorter than me, sir." After that, he broke off the street lamp next to him and held it in his hand as a At the same time, the anti-gravity device under her feet ignited and brought her up into the air. She was inserted into the track of a Decepticon flying past, and mercilessly hit it out with the street lamp at hand.

"..." Jazz looked at the flying object that was a head taller than him and said that his whole machine was not doing well _(:з」∠)_.

"Jarvis, record that we need to improve the energy consumption system..." Tasha flew up in the air and kicked a guy, then glanced at the red warning display of the energy bar that was about to bottom out and sighed, "Consumption It can be too fast, and the arc reactor can only last for 20 minutes." Now she will not endanger her life because the reactor energy is exhausted, but she is extremely confident that the energy will be exhausted in a short period of time... This has to be said in It is very dangerous in battle.

The battle ended with the military's final troop surge.

Although Megatron has been frozen for more than ten years, it seems that the CPU has not been completely frozen. Seeing that his own combat power has been depleted, he has increased his personnel. As the leader of the first army, he still listened to the suggestion of the adjutant Starscream A decision was made to withdraw temporarily.

——What did Starscream say?Temporary retreat for a better attack?

Megatron comforted himself with this, and ordered his closest confidant, Soundwave, to open the land bridge and retreat temporarily.

General Hawk stepped out of the fighter plane, looked up at the huge robots gathered nearby, and then at the machine that fell in front of him, which was more similar in size and shape to humans. When the opponent stepped forward, he instinctively touched the robot with vigilance. The gun at the waist, after seeing the other party walking forward while peeling off the exoskeleton at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing the inside, it was difficult to digest this scene for a while.

It took him a minute to look at the woman in a suit and leather shoes standing in front of him, with a blue light faintly revealing from the shirt on her chest, digesting the reality that there was no hallucination in front of him.

He even heard the discussions of his subordinates behind him, as well as the civilians who were slowly gathering to watch.

The joint forces directly under the president and hidden weapons were dispatched, a large number of exposed robots... and this... civilian entrepreneur in front of him.

civilian entrepreneurs...

"Ms. Stark...we have to talk..." General Hawk rubbed the bridge of his nose and said helplessly.

"Oh, about this... you can make an appointment with my assistant, Carol, I believe my appointment will be fully booked after today, so it's best as soon as possible~" Tasha threw a Stark wink at Hawk , then turned her head and glanced at the big guy behind her, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave with my new friend first." She said so and waved to Jazz, who nodded without words and walked to She turned into a Pontiac in front of her, and opened the door directly to wait for her.

"Are you sure there is no problem with this?" Jazz asked on the way back to the mansion, "Although it is not appropriate for me to say this, it is difficult to explain." Jazz used an affirmative tone rather than a question.

"MIB will take care of this matter." Tasha leaned back in her chair, let Jazz drive, and closed her eyes. Before that, she forcibly broke through the satellite firewall modified by the sound wave, and temporarily repaired the damaged communication.It's been a long time since I used Extremis on such a large scale, even though it has become a part of her, I still feel a little uncomfortable.

She fought back the hangover and the headache from overuse of Extremis, she replied without thinking.

"You know what I'm talking about..." Jazz's tone was a little tougher this time.

"About the armor? I probably need to discuss it with Carol first..." Tasha's tone was not as worried as the Jazz, and she still inevitably paused when she mentioned her assistant's name, and let out a long breath." First of all, I have to find a way to prevent my head from being trampled on by Carol's high heels..."

******

After Carol finally got through the 37th consecutive phone call after seeing the report about the New York War, he first lost his temper with the other party's incoherent speech, and then rushed to New York quickly by private jet.

After really seeing the remnants of the streets of New York and the appearance of the Stark Building, her concern for her boss was raised to the highest level-although the five letters on this building never looked good. , but there are only two letters left in this way, it can't be described as miserable, okay!

Carol rushed into the Stark Building with great worry, looked at the building under renovation, and went directly to Tasha's personal laboratory on the basement floor according to the building's smart butler's prompt. One person, one machine among the blue virtual data streams suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Oh. Carol." Under the reminder of Jarvis, his boss stopped the deafening rock and waved his left hand wrapped in armor.

"..." Carol watched as the armor wrapped in Tasha's hand melted into a liquid state and then shrunk into her body, unable to digest this fact at all.Not to mention the big guy on the other side waving her friendly hand.

At this moment, such a depressing thought flashed through her mind.

——Will I still have time to escape tomorrow's press conference if I resign today?

*****

Tasha looked at the cards in her hand, completely ignoring the large number of reporters and flashlights gathered outside the arena - solving those flashlights and annoying problems is simply Stark's innate talent.

This is a press conference issued by the special forces. After General Hawke, the spokesperson, explained the Autobots and Decepticons, she had to go on stage to explain the issue of armor. There are many witnesses, and even the MIB can't completely modify the memory to prevaricate the past, and some people even linked the blurred photos of the previous attacks on pirates and the inexplicable annihilation of terrorists in the Middle East... So for this matter, she Must respond on behalf of Stark Enterprises.

Regarding the cooperation with the Autobots, it is easy to explain...

Tasha flipped the top card over and saw another, an explanation of her armor—

It was an excuse given to her by the military, much like the one she had used to hide her identity all those years ago—a set of armor controlled by her bodyguards.

Sounds like a perfect excuse, like it was yesterday.

But no matter how perfect an excuse is, there will always be a day when it will be exposed.

Thinking of this, she pressed the card in her hand on the table, raised her head, and showed a perfect smile to the countless microphones and flashlights——

"I am, Iron Woman."
