Chapter 773 Saving the World
Chapter 773 Saving the World
Several Iron Man suits that had been physically isolated and networked by JARVIS stood quietly in the lab, without the slightest movement. They were now the unarmed Iron Man suits that had not been activated and were clearly inspected by JARVIS from inside out.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with these Iron Man Armors and the Iron Man Armors still in London guarding the dimensional space. The reason for the physical errors in their internal systems and JARVIS’s core system is actually very simple, that is, Ancient One used the Time Stone to reverse the time in order to save Lin Rui.
Ancient One is powerful, and he does have the ability to use the power of the Time Stone. However, he could not use the Time Stone to reverse the time of the entire world.
So, when saving Lin Rui, Ancient One just reversed the time in the area where the unfinished building was located. In this way, Ancient One can not only save Lin Rui but also minimize the impact of using the Time Stone on the outside world.
However, Ancient One thought that he used Time Stone to reverse time to save Lin Rui is something that only he knows. Unexpectedly, there was still a little trace left, that is the existence of JARVIS.
Although the Iron Man Armors that were also reversed by time also had no “memory”, their experiences made JARVIS, who had been connected to them all the time, make a system error in an instant.
After all, the change of time is something that JARVIS has no way of understanding today. And what happened in those few seconds in the unfinished building had no impact on the whole world, and the only one who felt the impact was JARVIS.
“What went wrong? Clearly, there is no problem.” JARVIS is already considering giving up on trying to figure out what went wrong despite the sheer volume of calculations he had done.
“The support team had entered the Portal on Siberia and the latest information has not come back. However, with the latest judgment on the strength of the Dark Elf fighters that I brought over, I should be able to bring Mr. Stark back safely.” Unable to figure out what went wrong, JARVIS is already “thinking” about his next problem.
When Tony-Stark left the Earth and could not give JARVIS any orders, he could judge what to do according to the situation after executing Tony’s last order. So, in such a situation, JARVIS’ intelligence developed beyond everyone’s expectations.
Dī Dī!
Just as JARVIS was expending a lot of computing power trying to figure out what was going on, a call came in.
“JARVIS, Tony hasn’t come back yet?” Then, the voice of Pepper, who had been stood up by Tony, came out.
When he was simply looking for the Magic Cube, Tony didn’t intend to do it himself, but then the Dark Elf appeared from the Portal and Lin Rui inexplicably disappeared on the way to find the Magic Cube, so Tony had to stood Pepper up on their date.
Before Tony left, the excuse he gave Pepper was that he was going to save the world. It’s been half a day, and the world is still there, but Pepper hadn’t heard back from Tony.
“Miss Pepper, Mr. Stark hasn’t come back yet,” JARVIS replied honestly to Pepper’s question.
“JARVIS, tell me, where did Tony go?” Pepper asked seriously after being silent for two seconds after hearing JARVIS’ answer.
“Mr. Stark… he went to save the world.”
Pepper: “…”
…
There was a long silence on Pepper’s end after JARVIS answered. Pepper didn’t believe Tony when he stood him up. Save the world? That’s just an excuse. Since Tony became Iron Man, he has felt that he should be in charge of everything on earth that he doesn’t like, so Pepper has gotten used to Tony’s frequent, inexplicable absences.
However, JARVIS’s serious answer made Pepper hesitate. JARVIS is a artificial intelligence, no matter how smart he is, he can’t lie. So, did Tony really go to save the world? Pepper couldn’t help but think so. However, it’s also possible that Tony had JARVIS playing along with him.
“Could it be that Killian’s terrorist attack hasn’t been solved yet?” Pepper, who was thinking for a long time, whispered in a low voice.
Pepper knows a lot about Vigilante and Superhero, but she doesn’t have much personal experience. Originally, Pepper was almost caught as a hostage of Killian threatening Tony but she was saved by Lin Ru and others before that could happen. So, Pepper doesn’t really experience much danger.
“It’s not Killian, the terrorist attack with Extremis has been dealt with,” JARVIS replied after hearing Pepper’s whisper.
“What then?… Forget it, Tony wouldn’t let you tell me.” Pepper was going to ask, but she thought better of it. If he could tell her then Tony wouldn’t have used the phrase “save the world” anymore.
JARVIS: “…”
“Never mind. And one more thing, what happened to the two people you just sent to our private infirmary? One of them is Jane Foster, someone I know from college” Skipping over what has often happened since Tony became Iron Man, Pepper then poses another question.
It turns out that Jane Foster and Thor, brought back by JARVIS in Tony Stark’s private plane, have already been seen by Pepper. JARVIS didn’t mean to keep Pepper in the secret, and they were accompanied by Jane Foster’s assistant Darcy. So Pepper soon found out that someone she knows from her college had been brought in unconscious.
“That little girl named Darcy has been making a fuss. When did Stark Industries become a casualty relief center? Except for Jackson. I haven’t seen Tony let outsiders use his private medical room.” Pepper continued to speak before JARVIS could answer.
Although Pepper knew Jane Foster from college, they were just two people who had occasionally seen each other. They were still a few years apart, and they were not friends.
So seeing such a beautiful girl comatose and being sent to Stark’s private medical room, of course, Pepper would think more. After all, Tony used to do this kind of thing a lot.
“Miss Pepper, I’m sorry, this is my fault. Miss Foster and Mr. Thor have been injured for some particular reason, and I’m keeping them here until Mr. Stark comes back.”
“As for Miss Darcy, she’s just a little emotional because she’s worried about her mentor,” JARVIS explained quickly after Pepper finished.
“Really? Injured? Is it serious? I can see that the big man has injuries, but Jane looked fine.” Hearing JARVIS’ answer, Pepper asked in a slow tone.
