Miami, on the smoke-filled battlefield.
Bathed in holy light, standing on the corpses of kaiju and dangerous wanderers, Tony Stark, who ended everything, breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
Although he successfully killed the 2200 kaiju with the help of J.A.R.V.I.S, this is still a big step forward for mankind.
This means that from now on, mankind will have more options when facing the monsters of the Pacific Rim.
However, just as Tony was about to enjoy the applause, J.A.R.V.I.S, who used his powerful calculation ability to detect the unique energy fluctuations of the kaiju in the Pacific Ocean, said with a serious tone:
"Mr. Stark, I have bad news to tell you."
Although J.A.R.V.I.S said that there is bad news, Tony didn't care.
At least in his opinion, the worst situation has already passed. How bad can it get?
So Tony said disapprovingly. "Don't be so nervous, J.A.R.V.I.S, you have to learn to relax.
Tell me, what trouble did the earth encounter this time? "
Facing Tony's ridicule, J.A.R.V.I.S's voice was as serious as ever. "Mr. Stark, just now, I detected a special energy source belonging to the kaiju in the Pacific Ocean."
Frowning, Tony was stunned. He shouted subconsciously. "What did you say?"
J.A.R.V.I.S said calmly, "Sir, you didn't hear it.
The kaiju you just killed is not the only one. There is another one in the Pacific Ocean, heading towards the west coast of the United States. It is expected to land in two hours! "
Hearing J.A.R.V.I.S's statement, Tony's face was extremely ugly, because he knew what this news means.
However, before Tony could answer, Frey's anxious voice sounded in his ear. "Tony, tell me, J.A.R.V.I.S is joking!"
Don't think that Tony and J.A.R.V.I.S are the only ones fighting against the kaiju. In addition to them, there is also S.H.E.L.D. and the United States government.
After all, the body of the Wanderer was built by the S.H.E.L.D. factory.
During the time Tony was building the Wanderer, it was the United States government that gave him the time to build it.
Facing Frey's uneasy question, Tony smiled bitterly. "J.A.R.V.I.S is an artificial intelligence. He knows everything, but he can't lie."
Following Tony's almost judgmental answer, the communicator fell silent.
The people who were cheering outside only knew that Tony piloted a huge mech and defeated a terrifying monster.
However, they did not know that there was another monster besides the one that Tony had defeated. It was currently approaching the West Coast of the United States aggressively!
The most terrifying thing is that the Wanderer has already perished together with the first kaiju. In other words, there isn't a second anti-monster armor that can fight on earth.
In the face of such a serious situation, after a short silence, the president of the United States stood up.
His tone was heavy, but his voice was incomparably resolute as he said, "Landing in two hours?
I can buy you another one and a half hours! "
After saying this, the president's heart was bleeding.
Because he knew what this promise meant. Not counting the various additional losses, it was the simplest and most basic financial loss — the compensation for the death of the soldiers.
Based on the lowest value of 100,000 USD per soldier, the compensation for death alone was close to 3 billion USD, and this was not including the officers at the rank of captain and colonel.
Combat required equipment, such as:
Weapons, tanks, armored vehicles, artillery shells, bullets, aircraft, etc., all of which require a huge amount of money.
A conservative estimate is that in less than an hour, the United States has spent at least tens of billions of USD.
What if they do it again?
The loss of this day is probably more than 100 billion USD!
PS: The market value of Xiaomi is about 100 billion USD.
This is one of the reasons why only powerful countries dare to be arrogant. Because war is burning money, and small countries can't afford it at all.
In addition, the United States can make a lot of money by bullying other small countries, but fighting against big monsters?
Are you kidding me? Will these kaiju give you land as compensation?
Or will they give you rare resources?
Therefore, the hundreds of billions of USD spent on these two battles were completely wasted. Even so, the president still decided to use this money, because in his opinion, this money is worth it!
What will the earth look like a thousand years later?
The president doesn't know, but he knows that in the next few decades, it will be a tug-of-war between humans and monsters.
After all, from all aspects, the kaiju that appeared on the earth is a planned invasion.
The anti-monster mecha piloted by Tony is the main means for humans to fight against monsters in the future!
As long as he can win over Tony Stark, not to mention hundreds of billions of USD, even if it's trillions of USD, the president can afford it!
Moreover, as the president of the United States, he has the obligation to protect the citizens of this country!
However, what the president didn't expect was that as soon as his voice fell, he heard Tony smile bitterly. "I'm afraid it's not possible this time."
Frowning, the president's eyes flashed with puzzlement. He subconsciously asked. "Why?"
Tony's face was filled with helplessness.
"First of all, there's the problem of the energy source. To make a two thousand ton mecha move like it's flying requires a huge amount of energy. In the battle just now, the dangerous Wanderer's energy source has already been destroyed. To create a new energy source, it will take at least three days."
"Secondly, driving this kind of large mecha is too much of a burden on the body. Even if I have the 'Iron Man Armor' as protection, plus the assistance of J.A.R.V.I.S., killing one monster is already my limit."
"In other words, in my current state, I can't fight again."
There's no other way, the Anti-Monster Armor – Dangerous Wanderer – is already beyond his ability.
Before this, Tony didn't expect that a second kaiju would invade the earth so soon.
Moreover, when developing the Wanderer, Tony considered fighting against one kaiju, not two. Even if the energy source of the Wanderer isn't damaged, with the current state of the Wanderer, it won't be enough to support him in battle.
Moreover, as a test product made in a hurry, the current Wanderer itself has various unstable hidden dangers. It can't fight for a long time.
Facing the situation described by Tony, everyone was silent.
However, no one thought about whether Tony had said this on purpose, because everyone knew very well how the Dangerous Wanderer mecha was built.
After all, it took only three and a half hours to complete a mecha. How can it be of extremely high quality?
S.h.e.l.d.. Frey frowned with irritation in his eyes. "Then what should we do?
The problem with Nagini hasn't been solved yet. I can't contact him at all now. "
On the other hand, Tony's eyes flashed with hesitation. "Should I try to lead him to the deep sea?"
As soon as his voice fell, he heard Frey and the president subconsciously refuse. "No!"
It's not that they are worried that the president will blow Tony up with a missile. If they had this concern, Tony wouldn't have taken the initiative to make this request. The reason why the two refused at the same time is very simple.
Except for Tony Stark, no one on the earth can make an anti-monster armor, so in any case, he can't have an accident!
It's just that in response to the refusal of the two, the silent Tony asked. "Then what do you think we should do?
Do we just watch the kaiju invade the west coast? "
Frey was silent. If either Nagini or Thor were on the earth, Frey would dare to give it a try, but the problem is that he only has Hulk in his hands right now.
With Hulk's strength, it's impossible for him to be an opponent of a kaiju. So in the face of Tony's question, Frey could only choose to remain silent. Just when everyone was speechless and the atmosphere was full of tension.
The president's heavy and determined voice sounded from the communicator.
"You don't have to worry about it, leave this matter to me!"
