Having just arrived in the new world, Tony, still a bit dazed, knew he had to defend himself first, even if he didn't understand the situation.
He raised the pulse energy cannon in his hand and aimed it at the steel skeleton in the center:
"Step back, T-800, or I'll open fire!"
"T-800? You should watch less movies. I'm not Arnold Schwarzenegger!"
Cyborg completely understood the joke this guy was spouting, but that didn't stop him from getting so angry he was practically spitting out a CPU.
It's overloaded.
When the opponent's scanning pulse first came into contact with the steel skeleton, the steel skeleton performed a reverse scan. When the scan results were displayed, the steel skeleton almost lost its composure on the spot.
Previously, Cyborg had been wondering who dared to break into the watchtower alone, but now he realized that the other person probably just wanted to die.
"How dare you invade the watchtower wearing such an outdated mech system?"
"behind?!"
Even if what this cyborg said was true, Iron Man would never accept it:
"The Mark 7 is the culmination of Stark Industrial's top-tier technology, the final design I completed on the toilet after three days and three nights of painstaking work! I won't allow you to destroy it like this!"
Thinking of this, Iron Man immediately prepared to teach his opponent a lesson. He opened fire with the pulse beam in the palm of his mech, melting the several drone mechs that had just been firing at him. Then, he smugly showed off the powerful firepower equipped on his mech to the main body in the middle:
"Look, who else can do that?"
He could obviously tell that the robots melting beside him were all remotely controlled unmanned machines, and the real body was the half-human, half-mecha creature in front of him. This was just a response to the creature's denigration of his own mecha.
"Fuck you, everyone here can do it!"
After counting the remaining 78264 drones after the unit losses, I was amused by the mysterious figure in front of me.
"You stay here and behave yourself. Once I've fixed the teleportation system, you'll be sorry!"
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Iron Man, of course, wouldn't listen to the other party, and immediately prepared to drive the Jaeger to find Joey by following the signal, until he discovered that the Jaeger was no longer responding to his commands:
"What?!"
Just like the human body, the Mark series armor's operating system is also divided into two layers. The first layer is the surface-level behavioral control, which is operated by Iron Man himself, just like a person raising his own hands and feet.
The other layer, much like the subconscious mind that controls a series of deep physiological activities such as breathing, blinking, and heartbeat, is managed by Jarvis.
Tony discovered that his surface commands to control the war machine were completely ignored, and he couldn't even move a single finger.
"Jarvis, initiate a system self-check. What happened?"
Jarvis, built into the Mark 7 processor, did respond actively to Tony's commands, but to no avail:
"The self-inspection process has been initiated, Mr. Stark, with an estimated completion time of 1024."
"Are you fucking kidding me?"
Tony immediately went berserk:
"Now we're both going to be used as human batteries by this Terminator!"
Meanwhile, the steel-boned old man calmly continued repairing the damaged watchtower. After this minute of exchange,
He found that the other party was not a very high threat.
Compared to the Amazons, Atlanteans, Superman, Captain Atom, and the Kryptonians who just left, Cyborg, whose confidence had been shaken, felt like he was back in his comfort zone after practicing on this "Mr. Stark" in front of him. "Damn it, if I can't handle the Kryptonians, I can handle you!"
Even amidst his busy schedule, Cyborg still managed to dedicate a thread to chatting with the unfortunate soul trapped inside his own armor, correcting the latter's pun errors:
"No, Mr. Stark, the human battery plot appears in The Matrix, not The Terminator."
Although Cyborg still didn't know who gave the other party the courage to break into the watchtower wearing such an intelligent mechanical suit that broadcast all electrical signals and had virtually no firewall, since they had come to him, he might as well ask:
"Can you explain to me how you obtained the watchtower's transmission frequency? And why did you attempt to infiltrate our base?"
"This isn't an intrusion, I'm here to find..."
With his system hacked by Cyborg and unable to move, Tony was now left with only normal communication as an option. Just as he was about to explain his purpose, he saw Joey arriving through his eyes and immediately cried out as if he had grasped a lifeline:
"Hey, Joey! Help! Help! Get this T-800 to let me go!"
"Superman, do you know this intruder?"
Cyborg looked at Joey and noticed that the way Joey was looking at this "Stark" was definitely not their first meeting. He immediately prepared to unlock Tony's armor.
"This kind of misunderstanding can be very dangerous. Please make your friend be more careful next time."
"No, I've never seen this person before in my entire life!"
Joey, returning from the medical room, confirmed that Tony hadn't been killed by Cyborg and then turned to leave, urging Cyborg to hurry up:
"Steelbow, hurry up and repair the system, and while you're at it, take care of this intruder!"
"Hello!!!"
After a period of commotion, Cyborg, who could distinguish between jokes and banter, ultimately returned Tony Stark's freedom.
However, Tony, who had just been released from his Iron Man suit, was clearly not happy:
"I traversed countless worlds to reach your universe, can't someone even offer the slightest bit of admiration for my feat?"
Tony was all alone in the room with Cyborg at that moment. Joey glanced at him and left the hall without even a word of welcome.
Snap snap snap~
Steel Bone perfunctorily generated two new hands, giving the garrulous guy in front of him a little encouragement:
"Well, congratulations, Mr. Magellan, you've discovered the secret of parallel universes!"
After all, this was the first time he had ever met someone so reckless.
"You should be thankful that our teleportation system's firewall is down right now. Otherwise, given the situation just now, if I had rejected or distorted the teleportation request through the firewall, you might have been lost forever in the endless void during the teleportation journey!"
"Are you out of your mind? Why are you here?"
Joey, who had just left, rushed over with the watch he had initially used to travel through time. He had kept this watch with most of the fragments of the Helm of Destiny.
The constant crises that had plagued him for the past few days meant that he would have almost forgotten he even possessed such a thing if Tony hadn't suddenly appeared.
"I need to get you back right away!"
"No, don't even think about it."
Tony Stark, of course, refused. He had just jumped from one universe to a completely new one, a universe that even included Hollywood, and the movies Terminator and The Matrix!
He wouldn't go back easily until he had satisfied his curiosity.
"Alright, since Cyborg is about to repair the system isolation layer, what do you want to know?"
Tony's sudden appearance reminded Joey of something, giving him some new ideas.
For example, how to manipulate the timeline.
But for now, he can satisfy Tony's curiosity, who's been forcing himself to endure hardship:
"Before you decide to get involved in our mess, I have to tell you—you asked for it."
