"Young Master Leon, welcome home. It's truly wonderful that you are safe and sound."
After facial recognition granted him entry, Jarvis immediately greeted Leon. His tone was slightly emotional, as if he had already developed a hint of human emotional awareness.
"Jarvis, how long has it been since Tony had his accident?"
"Young Master Leon, it is now the evening of the 85th day."
"What?"
"85 days have passed!"
Leon suddenly felt that time was pressing.
In the original work, it took roughly three months from Tony's kidnapping to his escape, but the movie didn't specify whether it was more than three months or nearly three months.
The Ten Rings Gang accepted Obadiah's commission to assassinate Tony, but they changed their minds at the last minute, hoping Tony would help them build Jericho missiles to realize their ambition of World domination.
The Ten Rings Gang secretly rescued Tony, who was incredibly lucky not to be blown up by a missile on the spot, and imprisoned him in a cave.
He was given only seven days to build Jericho missiles using the raw materials provided by the Ten Rings Gang.
However, Tony used a feigned tactic, secretly building the Iron Man Mark One armor with the materials provided by the Ten Rings Gang, and successfully escaped.
But the scientist who saved Tony, Ethan, sacrificed himself in that cave to cover Tony while he put on the armor.
This is the beginning of the movie "Iron Man 1," which resurrected Marvel.
Ethan's sacrifice
Paved the way for the future Iron Man.
Although theoretically, it's unlikely Tony would die now, people die when they are killed.
After all, Leon, an anomalous existence, has appeared, and it's hard to guarantee that other uncontrollable variables won't arise in the plot.
Moreover, Leon also wanted to save Ethan, who was practically Tony's life mentor and helped him turn over a new leaf.
With him assisting Tony, Leon felt his life would be much more comfortable, with nothing to worry about, allowing him to focus on his educational and training endeavors.
After unlocking with fingerprint and password, Leon took the elevator down to Tony's usual mechanical laboratory and parking lot, which Leon jokingly called "Tony's Mystical House."
He glanced around but didn't find his target, so he asked, "Jarvis, can the Jet Glider move now?"
"Young Master Leon, the Jet Glider has always been in standby mode, but due to its incomplete design, it places immense stress on the pilot. Without Mr. Stark's permission, I cannot activate it for You."
"Come on, Jarvis, what time is it now? Sometimes, when you're a person, your bottom line needs to be flexible; You need to know how to adapt."
"Young Master Leon, I am not human. I am merely an artificial intelligence created by Mr. Stark and can only operate according to the programs Mr. Stark has set."
"But in my eyes, You are my family."
"......"
Jarvis was silent for a moment. Beside Leon, the hidden elevator leading to the underground test parking lot slowly opened from inside the wall.
Seeing this, Leon's mouth curved into a smile, and he took the elevator again to a deeper underground level. However, after he exited the elevator, he was blocked by an extremely thick, bank-vault-like blast-proof alloy door.
"Young Master Leon, I can only do this much for You."
"Without Mr. Stark present, I cannot open this door."
"It's alright, Jarvis, You've already helped a lot."
Boom—
Leon grinned.
A deliberate punch landed on the metal door, only managing to create a small dent. The surrounding walls shook twice, and tiny fragments fell onto his shoulders.
If he had more time, Leon estimated he could also punch through this door with his bare hands, but that would be too slow.
A chest cannon might blast it open in a short time, but the resulting damage could destroy the contents inside or even the entire Villa.
"Young Master Leon, according to Mr. Stark, this metal door can fully withstand a nuclear blast impact. It is very difficult to destroy it by physical means."
As soon as Jarvis finished speaking,
With a loud bang, Leon had already smashed through the one-meter-thick reinforced concrete wall next to the metal door with the shield in his hand.
"......"
Jarvis instantly fell silent.
Leon shook the shield in his hand and laughed, "This door is tougher than the wall. Doesn't that make the wall the door? Brother, he's still not professional enough."
"Jarvis, this is the adaptability I was just talking about."
"When he gets back, remember to remind him to change the material of the walls too. They're too brittle. Who can they stop?"
After a bit of showing off, Leon stooped and passed through the "door" he had smashed open, entering the "garage" that Tony had specially built for Leon.
The space inside was not large, shaped like a cylindrical section, with various manufacturing and modification equipment hanging on the circular walls.
The floor was leveled with metal plates, covering an area of about 100 square meters and standing four meters high. It seemed as if such a large space had been carved directly out of the rock face.
The most eye-catching item was the extra-large motorcycle-like machine quietly parked in the center of the garage, even larger than a typical family car.
This was a concept Leon had dreamed of before, and he had persistently pestered Tony, like a Doraemon, just to have him use his astonishing wisdom to help bring it to life.
"Heh heh heh~"
Leon caressed the cold metal shell of this extra-large motorcycle, named "Jet Glider," with great fondness, while Jarvis began to introduce it.
"Following Young Master Leon's wild dreams, Mr. Stark equipped this Jet Glider with multiple experimental Arc Thrusters on its sides and tail."
"Coupled with the omnidirectional wheels Mr. Stark specifically developed for this motorcycle, the Jet Glider gained maneuverability far superior to conventional motorcycles."
"It can perform various unconventional maneuvers, including but not limited to self-rotation, lateral sliding, and near-ground hovering."
"At the same time, Mr. Stark also added a diving module, truly achieving amphibious capabilities across sea, land, and air."
"Maximum speed underwater is 100 km/h, maximum speed on water is 650 km/h, maximum speed on land is 1300 km/h, and maximum speed in the air is 2500 km/h."
"The entire motorcycle is electrically powered, with a medium-sized Arc Reactor as its energy source. Without considering mechanical wear or engine heat dissipation, it can continuously cruise at maximum power for one week on a full charge."
"Wait, a medium-sized Arc Reactor?" Leon raised an eyebrow, scolding with a laugh, "That damned liar, Tony!"
"I told him before to miniaturize the Arc Reactor to serve as a power source, but he insisted, 'It can't be done, how could it possibly be done? That kind of technology is too advanced.' And now it's already finished."
"Young Master Leon, in fact, Mr. Stark completed the design and manufacture of the medium-sized Arc Reactor the day after You proposed the concept of 'miniaturizing the Arc Reactor.'"
Jarvis reminded him.
Upon hearing this, Leon fell silent. It was false to say he wasn't moved.
Tony was indeed a damned genius.
"Jarvis, activate it."
Retracting the shield into the system space, Leon sat on the Jet Glider and said.
Regarding the shield on Leon's arm disappearing into thin air, Jarvis remained silent, instead repeatedly reminding him:
"Young Master Leon, the Jet Glider's design is not yet complete. The pressure on the pilot during acceleration and turning is more than three times that on a fighter pilot. An ordinary person simply cannot withstand it."
"Do You think I'm ordinary?"
"Hurry up!"
Leon urged, as time waits for no one.
"As You wish, Young Master Leon."
Seeing that Leon's mind was made up, and his physical performance of smashing the wall with a shield earlier was indeed far beyond ordinary, Jarvis no longer tried to dissuade him.
Accompanied by a roar like a fighter jet taking off, the Jet Glider's vehicle screen and engine simultaneously started.
A circular area with a diameter of six meters separated from the metal floor where it was located, slowly rotating downwards with the Jet Glider, entering the launch track.
At the same time,
Somewhere in the cliff below the foundation of Bin Hai Villa.
Rumble!
The rock wall opened to both sides.
A glowing metal track with a strong sense of technology, hidden behind it, immediately became visible.
Whoosh—
An invisible, pitch-black Rocket shot out from it, speeding across the near-shore Pacific Ocean towards Afghanistan.
It was the Jet Glider Leon was riding.
"Jarvis, I'm leaving the driving and customs issues to You."
"It is my honor to serve You, Young Master Leon."
