Chapter 111 - Chapter 18: Tony Stark's Crisis

At this moment, while Jason and others were having a headache about Norman Osborn, there was another person in New York City who was having a headache at the same time. And he was almost in pain. This was not just a literal adjective, but an indication of his current real state.

This guy is Obadiah, his strong body trembling and twitching on the floor. He has never known that it is possible to make people suffer so much without using any torture instruments.

It was as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his brain, and all that caused him such pain was just a human finger.

Muradi's fingers, which were faintly flashing with white light, were the source of all the pain.

"Mr. Obadiah, I should have warned you. My companions are not as easy to talk to as I am. If you don't listen to me, you will probably suffer more." Husano spoke to Obadiah in a condescending manner.

"Okay, Muradi, that's enough. Don't let this guy die, he is still useful to us." Husano said to Muradi in the Western dialect.

"American, I told you. Your so-called technology is ridiculous. You have no idea what the world really looks like. It is unwise to think of confronting us." Abdure laughed at Obadiah as usual. "Don't try to be clever with us."

To control Obadiah, they just used a little trick to inject a stream of internal energy into his body, while the fuse was controlled by Muradi.

As long as Muradi mobilized his energy to make a call, the energy hidden in Obadiah's body would react and sting his brain.

The energy itself is harmful while hidden within Obadiah's body, as it feeds on Obadiah's life force, ensuring that it remains dormant within his body.

Obadiah had secretly visited many famous doctors in New York these days, but no one could give him an answer. Today he went to see an authority on the nervous system.

Obadiah always thought that these people were playing tricks on his nerves.

After paying a high consultation fee, he still got nothing. The well-dressed and confident doctor, Stephen Strange, was a complete liar!

Now Obadiah understands that if he wants to survive, he must listen to these terrorists obediently without any conditions.

Sweat had soaked through his expensive clothes. The originally dignified Obadiah now moved like a stingy old man.

Abdure pulled him up and pressed him into the office chair. "Perform well, American. If you dare to show your weakness when Tony Stark comes in later, I promise to throw you directly from the 80th floor."

Muradi was still standing aside coolly, but now the three of them were all in makeup, disguised as Obadiah's bodyguards and standing in his office.

"If you can successfully kidnap Tony Stark and hand him back to the adults, I believe you can be promoted and return home." Muradi spoke to Husano in the dialect of his hometown in the Western Regions.

This language is not widely spread and only people near their hometown can understand it, so they feel comfortable talking in front of Obadiah.

Anyway, this American will be silenced after the mission is completed, so they are not worried about leaks.

As for why Tony was kidnapped again, it was actually very simple. Although Tony destroyed the cave and base in Afghanistan, he did not destroy everything.

Although Husano is not very smart, he still knows how to install video surveillance. After all, it is the 21st century.

After finding some remaining information, Husano has roughly figured out how Tony and Ethan escaped. Iron Armor is really a great invention.

Tony Stark is worthy of the title of genius. He was able to complete such a masterpiece in the cave with just a pile of scrap metal.

And then they saw the news in the US about the massacre in Afghanistan. Those stupid freedom fighters were killing their own people again.

In the TV broadcast, a steel armor dropped from the sky and took care of all the freedom fighters.

Although the appearance is very different, Husano, who has seen the attack method of the first generation armor, can easily infer that this was made by Tony Stark.

In just over a month, Tony has completely updated his armor.

This also made the three change their original intention of killing him and instead decided to capture him alive. There are many arms dealers in this world, but there is only one Tony Stark.

If Tony can mass-produce this mecha, it will be a great help to the adults. As for whether Tony will cooperate at that time, I believe they will have many ways to make him cooperate when they arrive in China.

The three of them put on makeup. Modern makeup techniques are very magical and can completely make one person look like another person.

The plan of the three was simple, but very practical. Let Obadiah pretend to have something to do with Tony Stark, then let Tony enter the office, and then leave after capturing him.

The key to this plan is Obadiah. As long as he doesn't betray them, the success rate is very high. Obadiah has been tortured by them and dares not to resist.

Because he did not obtain the fragments of MK1, Obadiah did not create Iron Monger as in the original book.

In addition, he was controlled by these terrorists and he no longer had the trump card to turn against Tony as in the original plot.

The Afghan massacre did lead Tony to question him as to why their weapons were still being manufactured.

But he managed to cover up the matter and pushed it to other shareholders, making Tony believe that he supported Tony and it just took time.

So he and Tony still maintain a good relationship on the surface, and tonight Obadiah asked Tony to come and talk under the pretext of problems with the weapons manufacturing department.

He had been tortured by these terrorists and was afraid of them. He did not dare to refuse their demands. The pain was even worse than death.

In order to dispel Tony Stark's vigilance, Abdure chose the Stark Industries Building as the location of the action, which is a place where Tony is most likely to let down his guard.

Who would have thought that Tony would be kidnapped in his own company?

And there is someone Tony trusts the most who is pulling the strings here.

"Ethan, seriously you should try the MK2's flying ability, it will give you a blast." Tony was walking in the corridor of his building. He was about to go to Obadiah's office to talk to him about the weapons department.

At the same time, he also called Dr. Ethan through the Bluetooth headset, who was helping him complete the MK2 armor at home.

"Come on, Tony, my heart can't stand such a great stimulation. The doctor advised me not to do any strenuous activities." Ethan said to Tony on the phone.

"You're talking about heart problems with a man who has seven or eight pieces of shrapnel stuck outside his heart that could kill him at any time?" Tony laughed.

"Ethan, are all the data sheets for MK2 complete now?"

"Yes, your actual combat experience in Afghanistan provided us with perfect test data. Thank you, Tony, for saving my hometown."

"No need to thank me, this is just making up for my original mistake."

"But I did find a lot of problems during the flight. The high-altitude performance of the MK2 is not perfect enough. As soon as the flight altitude reaches the intersection of the stratosphere and the mesosphere, serious icing problems will occur."

"Do you have any good ideas, Dr. Ethan?"

"Tony, the average temperature in the mesosphere is below -92.5 degrees Celsius. And you are flying at a speed of almost Mach 1.5. This will happen during the flight..."

"This is going to lose a lot of heat in flight, I know that. So that's what we're going to solve, Doc."

"Tony, I don't think you should focus all your abilities on one type of iron armor. You have already reached the limit of human aircraft within the atmosphere. If you go any higher, you will enter the Earth's escape zone."

"If you are not planning to build a space vehicle that leaves Earth's orbit, I think the MK2 will fully meet your flight needs."

"Higher, faster, and stronger are the driving forces for human progress. Oh, Doctor, please don't hang up the phone yet. I'll talk to Obadiah about the weapons department, and then we'll continue to talk about the improvement of MK2."

There are not many people Tony Stark trusts in this world. Apart from his deceased parents and the old butler, there are only three people he can trust: Pepper, Ethan and Obadiah.

He always regarded Obadiah as his own uncle, and he never thought that one day Obadiah would betray him.

When he pushed open the door of Obadiah's office and walked in, he saw two bodyguards standing behind Obadiah. He said in surprise, "I thought this was a private meeting."

Before Tony could finish his question, Abdure, who was hiding behind the door, rushed up with one step.

He was as agile as a cheetah and was knocked down by a palm before Tony could even notice him.

Tony has not yet undergone rigorous fighting training. Although his physical fitness is good, his reaction ability and sense of crisis are too poor. Tony fell straight to the ground.

"Okay, let's take this guy away, our mission is accomplished." Abdure directly carried Tony on his shoulders and spoke to his two companions in the Western dialect.

"What should we do with this guy?" Husano pointed at Obadiah.

"Kill him." Abdure's decision was simple and clear.

Muradi snapped his fingers lightly, and the energy that had been lurking in Obadiah's body suddenly rioted, rushed directly to his brain, and exploded directly in his brain.

Do business with a dangerous person, unless you are more dangerous than he is.

Sometimes when doing a transaction, you must understand the person you are trading with, but Obadiah probably won't have the chance to learn this lesson.

"Prepare to retreat." Muradi removed a piece of floor-to-ceiling glass that had been tampered with long ago, and Abdure directly fastened himself and Tony Stark with the prepared rappelling lock.

They jumped down from the 80th floor, followed closely by Husano and Muradi.

Tony Stark is in crisis.
