Chapter 65: The Iron Man Armor Was My Idea!

Yinsen had a complex expression. Looking at the young man performing surgery on Tony Stark, he felt incredibly shocked.

It was no wonder he was shocked. He knew that for an injury like Stark’s, only an experienced doctor who had handled such wounds would know to use an electromagnet to attract the iron shards. This prevented the shards from traveling with the blood and destroying vital organs in the body!

He really wanted to ask why Wei Ziqing knew all this, but looking at the group of mercenaries staring at them, he could only suppress his doubts and start assisting Wei Ziqing.

Wei Ziqing’s face remained calm. Tony’s injuries were indeed very severe, but he was confident he could save him. Furthermore, with an old doctor like Yinsen there, it was even more certain!

Soon, Wei Ziqing’s tense spirit finally relaxed.

Tony Stark’s personality was proud and stubborn, which was somewhat annoying, but since he saved him, it was enough to make Tony owe him a favor. For the future, this gave him a great chance of obtaining the intelligence of J.A.R.V.I.S.

This was exactly why Wei Ziqing dared to treat Stark even though his medical skills were not high. In any case, even if he failed, the one who died would not be him, so why be afraid!

Seeing that Wei Ziqing had treated Tony Stark, the group of mercenaries was finally satisfied. As long as Stark did not die, there was no problem.

After leaving a command to keep a close eye on Stark, only Yinsen and Wei Ziqing remained inside the cave.

Because the mercenaries had been present, Yinsen had not dared to speak to Wei Ziqing. Now that they were gone, he finally could not resist asking how Wei Ziqing knew to use an electromagnet to save Tony.

Wei Ziqing actually had a good impression of Yinsen. After all, this old man had a truly kind heart. In the original story, he even dared to use a gun to stop the mercenaries just to save Tony.

Though it was overestimating his own strength, his courage and spirit were greatly admired by Wei Ziqing!

However, regarding Yinsen’s question, Wei Ziqing’s expression became a bit awkward.

How could he explain it?

Could he say that you told me yourself?

In the end, Wei Ziqing just laughed it off and said he had once treated a few patients with similar injuries.

Although this reason was a bit far-fetched, Yinsen believed it completely. After all, only a doctor who had dealt with such injuries would think of using an electromagnet to attract iron shards.

Tony was still unconscious. Being locked in this tiny cave, Wei Ziqing was bored, so he chatted a lot with Yinsen, and the relationship between the two gradually grew closer.

By the time it seemed to be late, the unconscious Stark finally woke up. Just like in the original story, Tony was completely stunned when he saw the battery in his chest.

However, he was the future Iron Man after all, and he quickly calmed down. After learning that Wei Ziqing had saved him, he said thank you but then fell silent.

The cave was monitored twenty-four hours a day. As soon as Tony woke up, the group of mercenaries appeared.

They got straight to the point and told Tony that they wanted him to build the Jericho Missile for them. Tony’s expression changed instantly.

The Jericho was the most advanced missile developed by Stark Industries—no, it was more accurate to say it was developed by himself. Tony knew better than anyone the level of destruction it could cause.

If the Jericho Missile fell into the hands of these terrorists, Tony did not even need to think to know what the consequences would be.

He wanted to refuse immediately, but Wei Ziqing pulled him from behind. Wei Ziqing stepped forward with a smile and told the mercenaries that once Tony’s condition stabilized, he would build the Jericho Missile for them.

Hearing this, the mercenaries left satisfied. Tony, however, suddenly changed his expression, and his face turned dark.

After the mercenaries left, Tony said to Wei Ziqing with a cold face: “Wei Ziqing, do you know what will happen if the Jericho Missile falls into their hands?”

“I know!” Facing Tony’s cold questioning, Wei Ziqing’s face remained completely calm as he said faintly: “Nothing more than causing a series of terrifying wars, where countless poor people lose their homes and families are torn apart!”

Hearing Wei Ziqing say this with such a calm face, Tony finally could not help but roar: “If that is the case, then why did you agree to it on my behalf? You, Wei Ziqing, might want to be a killer, but I, Tony, do not!”

“Is that so?” Hearing this, a hint of mockery finally appeared on Wei Ziqing’s face: “If we are talking about killers, I’m afraid that would be you, Tony! Don’t forget how the Stark family started. And don’t forget that the guns these people are pointing at you are military weapons from Stark Industries!”

Uh…

Hearing this, Tony’s entire face froze. He opened his mouth, but he was unable to refute Wei Ziqing’s words.

Yinsen looked at the two of them helplessly. At a time like this, how could they still start a fight?

Moreover, everyone said Tony was incredibly smart, but why couldn’t he see Wei Ziqing’s intention?

Finally unable to resist, Yinsen stepped forward to persuade Tony: “Stark, I think you might have misunderstood Wei Ziqing. He did this to save you!”

“Save me?” Tony froze for a moment. Looking at Wei Ziqing, who was standing aside in silence, he suddenly understood why Wei Ziqing had agreed to build the Jericho Missile for those people.

His face immediately filled with apology, and he wanted to apologize. However, Tony’s personality was incredibly proud; how could he bring himself to say words of apology?

Instead, he said gloomily: “I know he did it to save me, but how? We will die if we don’t make the missile, and we will also die if we do. At most, we just struggle for a bit more time!”

“This…” Yinsen’s face also froze. Tony’s words were not wrong. No matter what they chose, they would die!

“Since we are going to die anyway, why not resist?” Wei Ziqing’s faint voice drifted over, causing both men to freeze. They looked at Wei Ziqing with confusion.

“Resist? How do we resist? They have weapons, and we are unarmed. How can we be their match?”

Tony frowned. Wei Ziqing was not an idiot; did he really think that three people could shake a group of mercenaries?

Wei Ziqing’s mouth twitched slightly. Was the Tony in the original story not very smart?

Now, he had first agreed to build the Jericho Missile on his behalf to obtain materials, and he had spoken so clearly, yet Tony still hadn’t thought of the plan to build the Iron Man Armor!

He stopped playing riddles with him and said directly: “They have guns, so we will make it so they cannot use them. Aren’t you smart? I already made them deliver the construction materials. Can’t you build a weapon that prevents them from hurting us?”

Buzz!

Tony shook all over. The confusion in his eyes was replaced by a sharp light. He looked at Wei Ziqing excitedly and said: “Do you mean…”

Wei Ziqing nodded and said slowly, word by word: “Iron Man Armor!”
