After the armor was opened, Pepper walked out from inside.

Seeing this scene, Shi Xiaolei suddenly noticed that the steel armor that landed in the courtyard was not the one that left before.

It is a bit smaller in size, and its body shape is also slightly slender. The most important thing is that the color scheme of this armor is not Stark's favorite color of gold and red, but the background color of dark blue, which is almost black, with a little The silvery white…

Suddenly, recalling the "Reunion 4" he had seen before time travel, and the steel Pepper who appeared in the big scene in the last scene, Shi Xiaolei had a clear understanding in his heart.

This thing was obviously tailor-made by Stark for Pepper... If you guessed correctly, it should be Stark who took time to make it for Pepper before going to Asgard this time.

After asking, the answer was as expected by Shi Xiaolei.

"So, are you worried that you won't be able to come back, and Pepper who stayed here suddenly encountered some emergency?" Sitting under the shade of a tree, Shi Xiaolei held a piece of cold and sweet watermelon in his hand, and smiled to his friend. Jokingly said: "I never expected that Mr. Tony would be so careful. It seems that you have already thought about it and decided to spend the rest of your life with Pepper."

It's not that Pepper is regarded as his other half. With Stark's piss, it is absolutely impossible to equip her with a steel armor.

As a friend, Shi Xiaolei has a deep understanding of Stark.

"It's just by the way." The dead duck said stiffly, talking about Stark.

"Huh? By the way? Are you sure?"

"Of course." Stark subconsciously glanced at Pepper, who was playing puzzles with Kang Na more than ten meters away, and said casually, "Didn't I say it before, because the matter of buying the hull from Ermao's house requires Are you talking to the military for a while? I won’t explain the process and reasons in detail. In short, I picked one from the old model and changed it to a size suitable for Rhodes..."

"I seem to have heard someone mention my name." Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, before the words fell, Rhodes came out from behind the two of them carrying a few cans of cold beer.

Seeing that Shi Xiaolei still had unfinished watermelon in his hand, Rhodes only threw a can for Stark. Then, while sitting down on an empty beach chair, he opened the pull ring casually: "Guys, what are you talking about, take me one."

"It's nothing, let's chat casually." Shi Xiaolei smiled: "I just heard from him that I bought you a suit of armor too. How about it, isn't it nice to fly freely in the sky wearing a steel armor?"

"It's okay." After taking two sips of beer, Rhodes nodded triumphantly: "It's quite cool, but the weapons on board are a little less, and the feeling of firing is not as good as when flying a fighter jet."

"It's good to wear something." Stark gave Rhode an angry look, and stark held back his mouth: "Weapon or something, don't expect me to take action. You know, I have quit that thing. "

"I know, I know." Rhodes raised his hand, making a gesture of surrender: "I didn't say anything, don't be so sensitive, OK?"

"Then you complained about too few weapons just now?"

"I just said that there are a little less weapons, and I didn't say that you should do it for me." Rhodes looked helpless: "Actually, I went to your company today just for this matter."

"Um?"

"The higher-ups approved some budget for me to equip the armor with weapons." Spreading his hands and shrugging his shoulders, Rhodes explained seriously: "No matter what is installed, it must be controlled through the armor...the armor You made the control program installed in it, but you didn’t open source code, so we can’t adjust it at will. Although the budget is quite large, there is always an upper limit. If I pick those weapons back, it will be the same as the control you designed. The program can’t match, isn’t the money wasted? There’s no way, I can only make a few more trips and discuss with Jarvis a few more times.”

"You're pretty smart." Stark laughed.

"I wear the battle armor, and I am the one who sets out the mission." Rhodes said with a wry smile, "If there is a problem with the weapon, I will be the first to be unlucky. Please, I don't want to lose my life because of equipment failure .”

"How can there be such a problem with the armor I designed." First, Stark smiled proudly, and then changed to a slightly disdainful expression: "Even if there is a problem, it must be because of the armor you chose. Those weapons. By the way, who did you order them from? Lockheed? Or BAE?"

"NO, it's Hanmer Industries."

"Justin Hammer's company?" Stark raised his eyebrows: "Man, I suggest you change to another company."

"I know you don't like him..."

"It has nothing to do with that." Waving his hand and interrupting Rhodes, Stark shook his head disdainfully: "Aside from my opinion of him, from an objective point of view, Justin Hammer is just a poor imitator That’s all. Do you know what clumsiness is? You can only imitate some furs, and the quality of the inside is not guaranteed at all... Hehe, you dare to use the weapons he made, buddy, I can only say that you are a **** warrior.”

"Not likely. In fact, I just went to his place the day before yesterday and tried the samples he prepared." Without directly accepting Stark's opinion, Rhodes distinguished for Justin Hammer with some doubts: "Although It is true that some parts are not so suitable~lightnovelpub.net~ But the problem is only in the specifications, in terms of quality, I feel pretty good."

What is the specification? To put it bluntly, it means that the firepower is not up to the standard, or the weight and size are too large, which is not suitable for carrying on the armor. For example, if the main guns of a battleship cannot be equipped on a destroyer, it is called inappropriate specifications.

"Anyway, I've said everything I need to say. You can figure it out." Shrugging, Stark raised the finished soda can, aimed at the foam box a few meters away, and gently threw it out: "Of course , if it is because of the request of the superior, then you can pretend that I didn't say anything."

With a soft clang, the can was tilted more than one meter and fell to the ground.

"Tsk~." Shaking his head, Stark sighed and stood up while leaning on the armrest of the recliner.

"Okay, you guessed it right." Rhodes also raised the can in his hand, and glanced at the foam box: "Maybe that guy has taken care of it, and when he passed the message to me, he deliberately mentioned more Several times, I was asked to choose him first. I am just an ordinary colonel, the general has spoken, and I can only listen...Yes! Dude, look at my vote!"

"Look at what?" Stark picked up his soda can and threw it into the foam box, and took out the one that Rhodes just threw in, and dropped it on the ground: "You didn't throw it in, did you?"

"...Hey, is there anyone like you?"

"I didn't do anything." Then he threw the wet wipes that had just been wiped into the foam box, and Starkrappi smiled: "There are no fingerprints on the jar. If you are not satisfied, you can find someone to identify it." ah."

"...I mean, no wonder you didn't throw the tissues in together just now." Seeing Stark with a smirk on his face, Rhodes' black face was speechless.
