Chapter 24: The boy’s shield? The old man’s shield! (Ch 24)

…

After dealing with Ethan and his wife and daughter, Leon and Tony returned home and found that Rod was already sitting in the living room waiting with Jarvis’s permission.

“Tony, Leon, I think I need an explanation.”

Rhodes looked at the two brothers with a “kind” smile on his face.

Seeing this.

Leon and Tony looked at each other. The former shrugged to show that he didn’t care, while the latter nodded and led Rhodes to the underground workshop where the iron armor was stored.

They had complete trust in Rod, who was one of the few good friends with whom the two brothers could confide, joke, and have equal conversations.

(ps: The Rhodes here refers to the Rhodes who is like Tony’s good brother in “Iron Man 1”, not the Rhodes who is like Tony’s little follower in “Iron Man 2” and subsequent movies.)

After Tony explained.

Rhode looked at the three sets of steel armor in the window and couldn’t help but exclaimed:

“Oh my God!”

“You said that you used only this suit of armor to wipe out the group of armed warlords entrenched in the town of Gemilla, along with the Stark arms sold to them by Obadiah?”

“To be precise, it’s me and Leon together.” Tony corrected: “But even without Leon, I can do it alone.”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Leon rolled his eyes and didn’t bother to argue with Tony. After all, what he said was the truth.

“If Tony relies on the Iron Man armor, then what about you, Leon?”

Rhodes looked at Leon.

Leon smiled slightly, raised his hand and fired a palm cannon, easily shattering a bulletproof glass in the underground studio.

Now he has no shortage of energy.

Because as soon as he returned home, Leon asked Tony for the small arc reactor that he had prepared in advance.

As long as Leon doesn’t suck it too hard, this reactor will be enough for him to use for a long time.

“Shit!”

“Super power?”

Rhodes had a look on his face as if he had seen a ghost, and Leon enjoyed it very much.

after all.

Having super powers but not showing them off is like walking in the night in fine clothes.

Just relying on Rhodes’s supporting role, Leon will definitely save him from the Skrulls.

No, instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative.

A thief can only steal for a thousand days, so you can’t guard against thieves for a thousand days.

It seems.

The Skrull extermination plan is about to be put on the agenda.

Leon didn’t want to teach Pei a Skrull disguised as a Goblin one day in the future. The scene was terrifying to think about.

He is a staunch human racist.

All others, except for the races that meet Leon’s aesthetic standards, are heretics!

“Tony, I…”

After seeing Tony and Leon’s super powers, Rhodes, whose worldview somewhat collapsed, suddenly became shy.

Seeing this, Tony waved his hand and said without waiting for him to finish, “No need to say more, Rod, Mark 2 is prepared for you.”

“Oh, Tony!”

“You are such a nice guy!”

Rhodes was so excited that he gave Tony a bear hug. With a click, Leon on the side used his mobile phone to record this beautiful scene that could be compared to the “Empress Luffy Picture”.

after.

Rhodes couldn’t wait to ask Tony to take him for a ride in the sky, and Leon once again demonstrated a flying speed that crushed them all.

That provocative attitude made Tony so angry that he wanted to immediately make Mark 4 and Mark 5…

Happy times are always short.

Two and a half hours later.

Rhodes left the seaside villa contentedly.

But he did not take the Mark II away. Not only because the Mark II had not yet undergone the latest system maintenance, but also out of consideration for protecting Tony’s identity as Iron Man.

It has to be said that as a good friend, Rhodes has nothing to say about Tony and Leon. This is why Leon is willing to show his superpowers in front of him and why Tony is willing to directly give him a set of iron armor.

Money is easy to get but a true friend is hard to find.

This is the common trouble that the two brothers have because they are too rich.

After seeing Rhodes off.

Tony immediately put the Mark IV armor on the agenda and started working on it, while Leon moved his bedroom directly to the mechanical maintenance room on the second underground floor where Arcee was parked.

In order to develop a relationship with Arcee, Leon decided that if he didn’t stay overnight at one of his other sisters’ houses, he would sleep with Arcee.

“Leon, you are not a child anymore.”

Arcee looked at Leon who was leaning on her and was speechless.

“But compared to you, I’m just a child…ah!” Before Leon could finish his words, Arcee spun on the spot and threw him out of the driving seat!

“Leon, don’t you know that talking about girls’ important numbers, especially their age, is a very impolite behavior?”

Arcee was so angry that she changed into combat mode and gave Leon, who was lying on the ground, a thump.

However.

Leon never plays by the rules.

He looked at Arcee lovingly and said from the bottom of his heart: “Arcee, you are beautiful like this too.”

“you……”

Arcee’s pretty face suddenly turned red, and in a blink of an eye she changed back to motorcycle mode, facing Leon with the back of the motorcycle, not daring to look at him directly.

Seeing this.

Leon smiled crookedly: The plan works!

The easiest way to conquer a pure and innocent lady like Arcee is to play it straight. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to be handsome enough and have already occupied a certain position in her heart.

the next day.

The second underground floor of the seaside villa.

Leon and Arcee’s mechanical maintenance room and bedroom.

Leon woke up from his big bed in a daze. He had a strange dream last night that he was inexplicably pressed under the Five Elements Mountain instead of Sun Wukong.

“Christine, have you become heavier?” Leon asked confusedly, wanting to reach out and lift the softness that was pressing on him…

“Huh?”

“What’s so hard?”

Leon was completely awakened by the strange touch on his hand.

Then I realized there was no Christine.

Only Arcee, the motorcycle mode, was standing next to him. For some reason, she was leaning against his bed. Looking at the lit screen of the car computer, she seemed to be awake.

“Who is Christine?”

Arcee questioned.

“A journalist friend.”

“……”

“……”

Leon didn’t say much, and Arcee didn’t ask any more questions. Neither of them knew that the other was in an awkward situation, so they seemed to be in unusual harmony.

a long time.

Arcee reminded, “Leon, maybe you should read the headlines of today’s news.”

“oh?”

“Let me take a look.”

Leon somersaulted over the bed and landed on Arcee’s waist very accurately. The car screen automatically searched for today’s headlines.

The first thing that caught my eye was a soldier boy, oh no, Leon’s headshot.

He was smiling as brightly as a child, as if he was throwing the shield and was completely sure that he had a talent for throwing.

I don’t know which cutie took this photo secretly, but it has brought out 70% of Leon’s handsomeness.

It’s just that because the distance is far and the helmet covers the upper half of the face, the photo is a little blurry.

It’s probably hard for ordinary people to associate this photo with Leon at first glance, but…

“Shock! The demons from hell that appeared in the town of Gemilla were wiped out overnight! The resurrection of the Son of God, Superman!”

“According to the frontline reporters, the two superheroes who liberated the town of Gemila were called saviors by the local residents—”

“Iron Man and Shield Boy.”

“God damn Shield Boy, why didn’t he name himself Shield Old Man?” Leon laughed angrily, “This is the report copy written by Tony, right?”

“Iron Man is covered in a suit of steel armor and his identity remains a mystery.”

“But the identity of the Shield Boy is suspected to be the second son of Stark Industries, Leon Stark. Based on this, Iron Man may be his elder brother, Tony Stark.”

“The above reports are purely speculation. If there are any errors, please do not take them seriously.”

“Hey, the disclaimer is already there.” Leon’s mouth twitched, “Which reporter is this so unprofessional? I have to kill him!”

Furious, Leon immediately started the quantum speed reading and flipped to the bottom line. The signature was…

“Christine?!”
