The next day, Lan Luo was woken up by Tony's call, his eyes still a bit hazy. Seeing the three white figures on the bed, he knew he hadn't rested well last night.
Lan Luo went to the living room and directly opened the projection: "Hi, Tony, what's up so early?"
Seeing Tony's haggard face and messy bed-head on the other side, he probably hadn't slept last night either.
"Oh my god, Lan Luo, I finally got through to you." Tony was also very happy to be able to contact Lan Luo. It was Lan Luo who contacted him before, and his calls usually went unanswered.
"I just got back from Nidavellir yesterday. What do you need?" Lan Luo already had a guess as to why Tony was looking for him.
Tony Stark said without ceremony: "Lan Luo, I need your help. We recently obtained a mind stone. I want to create a mechanical body to protect Earth through artificial intelligence, just like the Daji you created before. It might not be as advanced, but it will definitely reach your level in the future."
Lan Luo knew things had advanced, and also that he had dealt with the biggest villain of Iron Man 3 ahead of time. So now, Tony wanted to use the power of the mind stone to create Ultron. If he joined their team, he could directly control Ultron and also find the Adamantium alloy made by Dr. MacLain.
Some people claim Adamantium alloy is the source of Wolverine's bones and weapon materials, known as the hardest metal on Earth, a man-made alloy that, once smelted and cooled, shows no signs of melting even at temperatures of 500,000°C. Its chemical structure is a US Government secret; it is not an element and possesses properties not found in any element on the periodic table.
However, Wolverine's claws have been cut off before, and some also mention Captain America's shield, but that shield currently seems to have limited use, only absorbing damage and releasing received impact damage.
Lan Luo thought for a moment and still asked: "What technology do you need from us?"
Tony on the other side answered without thinking: "Life Cradle Technology."
When Daji was created, he had watched from the side. Although Tony also wanted nanotech, he believed he could create nanotech himself. But Life Cradle Technology was a technology that gave mechanical bodies life; even he had no idea how to research it.
Thinking of this, Tony felt a bit envious of Lan Luo. Helen Cho was not only beautiful but her research capabilities were not inferior to his at all. The most crucial thing was that Tony also knew Lan Luo had at least one more, Christine.
He heard Thor say that Lorelei, the succubus in their palace, was also involved with Lan Luo. Although he hadn't seen that succubus, Thor said that just her voice could charm many men, so she must be good. Thinking of the beautiful vases at his own parties, it was better not to compare; once he did, he lost all interest.
"Alright, I'll come over later, but you also have to do me a favor." Lan Luo wanted Jarvis to help him find Adamantium alloy. After all, as an outsider, searching for such a thing would definitely attract attention from some people. Moreover, searching by himself in an unfamiliar place, with few acquaintances, the chance of getting confidential information would certainly be less than Tony's.
Tony also asked with some curiosity: "What is it that even you need my help?"
"Adamantium alloy. I think your armor should also need this alloy. Legend has it that this metal is the hardest metal on Earth, a man-made alloy that, once smelted and cooled, shows no signs of melting even at temperatures of 500,000°C."
Lan Luo's words caught Tony's attention. His armor was already made of uru metal from Lan Luo, incorporating vibranium and uru metal. But if he could get Adamantium alloy or its data, his armor might become even more powerful.
"Okay, I'll have Jarvis help look for it." Tony would not doubt Lan Luo's judgment. When he gets it, he will share it with Lan Luo. This is also a transaction. Lan Luo is somewhat inconvenient in the US, and he has the influence of Stark Industries, so he can obtain a lot of information through the weapons department.
Lan Luo was also very happy to receive Tony's reply. He turned and went upstairs again. Before long, soft moans echoed from upstairs again. After all, they were just happy last night, and now was the time to solidify their relationship.
That evening, Lan Luo arrived at Tony Stark's luxurious villa through a rune wormhole, finding that Tony seemed to be holding a welcome party for him. There were quite a few famous people present, including Dr. Banner, the Hulk, and Black Widow Natasha. It was obvious they knew about Lan Luo's existence from Tony and wanted to recruit him. Also present was Captain America, whom he hadn't seen in a while, and who was clearly doing well among the Avengers.
Little Pepper, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, also appeared. Tony saw Little Pepper's expression looking at Lan Luo, so he quickly stepped forward and hugged Lan Luo, saying: "Friends, let's welcome our new friend, Lan Luo Jones."
Lan Luo also enthusiastically hugged Tony and said: "This operation must have been very thrilling."
Tony also sounded a bit angry when he heard this: "I didn't expect the military to disregard our lives, but we all got through it, didn't we?"
Little Pepper, standing nearby, held her hands to her heart and asked Lan Luo with some concern: "They'll come again, won't they?"
Lan Luo nodded and said: "They are all Thanos's subordinates. You should know that Thanos is an extremely powerful being even in the universe, having destroyed many star systems and having countless subordinates."
Little Pepper then realized Tony's recent unusual behavior. She looked at Tony and said: "I'm sorry, no wonder you've been under so much pressure recently."
"Perhaps it's not as bad as you think. Thanos wouldn't dare come to Earth right now. Your Tony is only slightly stronger than an ant in the eyes of others, just a tiny bit." Lan Luo made a small gap with his thumb and forefinger, and also teased Tony.
Tony Stark, hearing that they had only eliminated one of Thanos's forces, said with low spirits: "Are we just going to wait for them to come and destroy Earth?"
Lan Luo rolled his eyes at Tony and said: "Didn't you hear me say he wouldn't dare come to Earth? Earth is coveted by many demon gods from the Dark Dimension. Aren't they all on Thanos's level? Why haven't they destroyed Earth yet?"
Little Pepper felt relieved upon hearing this: "I never thought I'd hear this. Is what you're saying true, Mr. Lan Luo Jones?"
She found it somewhat unbelievable; she had never heard of such things. What demon gods? It sounded like mythology.
"Haven't you met Thor and them? What's so unbelievable about this? You are not the only protectors in this world. Odin bears the heavy responsibility of guarding the Nine Realms, and there's also the Ancient One, who I consider my teacher. She can know everything about the past and future, possessing the mind stone with the power of time. It can be said that not many in this universe can defeat her."
Lan Luo's words also relieved some of Tony's pressure; he had truly felt overwhelmed recently.
