Far across the ocean.
San Francisco.
At the Life Foundation, located on the coast.
The rooftop of the building, designed with a futuristic aesthetic, was open.
One by one, humanoid mechs, spraying brilliant tail flames from their palms and feet, immediately rose into the air, heading towards the battle in New York!
The Arc Reactors in the mechs' chests emitted a bright blue glow.
The sturdy outer shell, mixed with a trace of Vibranium, had lines and contours that adhered to the golden ratio.
The gold and red paint scheme showcased a luxurious style!
The mech heads were like dragon heads.
The mechs had a ferocious, menacing appearance, radiating an aura of extreme danger!
Nearly a hundred mechs, arranged in formation, advanced in unison.
Their speed was enough to break the sound barrier!
They were being remotely and simultaneously controlled by the super AI, Red Queen, from the Red Room Base!
"Kirov Drones are about to deploy."
"... Estimated time to reach the battlefield in three minutes," reported the emotionless electronic voice.
Buzzing!
A deafening roar emanated from the anti-gravity turbine engines.
Utilizing Kirov Airship technology, the developed small drones ascended, forming an air combat formation that blotted out the sky, and departed from the deck of the Red Room Lighthouse Base!
Kirov!
From the game world of Red Alert.
Represents the absolute power of the Soviet Union.
One airship can destroy an entire armored division!
Of course, due to the Kirov Airship's high cost and time-consuming construction...
The understanding intelligent butler, referencing Kirov Airship technology and combining it with modern drone warfare concepts, innovatively invented—
Kirov Drones!
They possess almost all the functions of the Kirov Airship.
The alloy armor was sufficient to withstand bombardment from artillery shells.
They deployed High Explosive Bombs with devastating destructive power.
Because of their diminutive size, similar to that of a toy, they moved at incredible speeds!
Even in narrow alleys.
Escape corridors.
They could still move unhindered! Furthermore, the Kirov Drones were equipped with a suicide attack function.
Through the drones carrying Nano-chips, they could be remotely controlled and synchronized across multiple terminals in real-time.
They were essentially walking gun turrets! Currently, the Red Room Base had established an assembly line capable of automated production, with negligible material and financial costs!
This is the future Shen Du values!
Since he's in modern society, there's no need to resist the convenience and benefits that technology brings.
Not only is Tony Stark racking his brain to figure out the right way to fuse magic and technology.
Even Shen Du is trying to combine the two!
For example, the Enchanted Mecha Legion.
He'll create an unprecedented magical force that surpasses Iron Man!
Leaving him with nowhere to go!
In addition, the Chitauri's bio-technology is worth learning from.
Perfectly merging biology and technology, unleashing unprecedented, shocking deterrence!
For example, the Leviathan Battleship.
A weapon of apocalyptic proportions, a veritable natural disaster!
If Earth hadn't had the Avengers and other superheroes, it would have already been completely overrun, reduced to rubble.
Becoming a stillborn universe, utterly insignificant among the myriad worlds.
"…Here we go!"
Shen Du's eyes narrowed, a playful smile playing on his lips.
Now, the world would know of the Long Live Group!
The Long Live Group would be among the top one hundred companies in the world!
Long Live.
In the Eastern Divine Land, it implied an eternity.
It also symbolized the congratulations and praise of a subject to their sovereign.
Also refers to the supreme ruler.
The highest ruler!
Therefore, after careful consideration, Shen Du decided to name his group as such.
Times change, and years pass.
The status of merchants has reached an unparalleled level.
By leveraging capital to influence the political arena, and then gathering public support, peacefully taking over all the institutions, armed forces, units, and departments of the Eastern Divine Land.
This is the way of the emperor!
"According to the time calculations, the Kowloon Walled City should have already been relocated."
"After retrieving the other three talismans, immediately return to Hong Kong, and awaken the Lord Saint's Palace, which has been dormant for a thousand years!"
Shen Du's eyes flickered, filled with anticipation.
The Lord Saint's Palace.
It displayed the Golden Rooster King's treasures.
Countless gems.
Magic items.
Mysterious artifacts.
And so on.
And so on.
Besides, the courtyard of the Lord Saint's Palace connects to Otherdimensional Space!
Also known as the Pocket Dimension.
Similar to the dark kingdom ruled by Shadow Demon Tara.
They basically all fall under the category of pocket universes.
The Pocket Dimension is home to the incredibly powerful Dragon Legion!
Like a Western dragon, transformed by Kingpin, it has wings and the ability to breathe fire, enough to sweep across the Eastern Divine Land and defend Hong Kong!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
One after another, humanoid mechas trailed smoke, speeding down from the sky!
Kirov Drones, painted with shark-mouth designs, arrived almost simultaneously!
The unprecedented, fully equipped mecha legion, along with miniature Kirov Airships that looked like toys, made no attempt to hide or conceal themselves.
They appeared directly and openly before the world!
"Stark."
"Is this your Iron Legion?!"
With fiery red, shoulder-length curly hair, and clad in a black, figure-hugging leather suit that accentuated her perfect curves, the super-agent known as Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff, parted her red lips, a mixture of surprise and delight on her face.
A mecha legion numbering a hundred units!
The design was similar to Tony Stark's Mark IV armor.
It was clearly equipped with incredible firepower.
The only thing that set them apart was that the head was shaped like a dragon's head, with gaping fangs, exuding a breathtaking beauty!
When exactly had Stark developed an Iron Legion?!
And how had he managed to keep it a complete secret?!
"As expected of Tony Stark!"
"Long live!"
"We're saved!"
The panicked New York residents, who had been scurrying around with their heads in their hands, couldn't wait to cheer upon seeing this.
Nearly a hundred Mark IV armors!
Undoubtedly, this could completely destroy the alien forces ravaging New York!
And those shark-mouthed drone airships...
They should be even more formidable!
Enough to wipe out all those alien bugs!
The residents of New York unconditionally trusted Tony Stark, the world-famous superhero, Iron Man!
After all, since Stark Industries shut down its weapons division, it had thrown itself into the charity industry, investing in and supporting numerous new research projects.
In his spare time, he became Iron Man, fighting crime and bringing so much good to New York, and even the entire world!
Even if Iron Man hadn't reached the heights of later generations, he had already gained countless fans and fanatics.
They were going crazy praising Tony Stark!
Moreover, only Tony Stark possessed the manufacturing technology for the Arc Reactor! As for Whiplash, Ivan Vanko...
Colonel Rhodes witnessed his death with his own eyes!
"Uh."
"To be honest."
"The Iron Legion in front of me has nothing to do with me."
Tony Stark, sporting a pair of small mustaches, was silent for a long time. With a constipated expression, he squeezed a few words from between his teeth.
"Who exactly stole my technology..."
"They even copied my idea!!!"
Tony Stark's expression was complicated.
He was so angry he started to laugh.
Even the brilliant Tony Stark had to admit that the combination of the Iron Legion and the drone formation was seamless.
It had been swirling around in his mind for a long time, but he hadn't had time to apply it, to mass-produce it.
The related supporting equipment was extensive.
It required research from scratch.
The key was that he hadn't dreamed that someone would beat him to it, turning the inspiration and idea into reality!
"We are from the Long Live Group."
"Welcome, everyone, to the purchase of the armaments and toys we produce."
The emotionless voice of a humanoid mecha spoke.
Long Live Group?!
Stark firmly etched the name into his memory.
However, he didn't have the energy to search and investigate at the moment.
Because the Enchanted Mecha Legion and the Kirov Drones had already begun their actions.
They were engaging the incoming alien warriors!
Buzz!
Energy flowed from the Arc Reactor in his chest, instantly boosting to maximum power.
A laser cannon, as thick as a bucket, blasted through a group of gliding vehicles!
"Woah."
"This power is not much different from your Mark VII Armor!"
Natasha was full of praise.
"Er..."
"It's really not my work!"
Tony Stark was speechless.
Exclamations and questions kept coming through the earpiece.
S.H.I.E.D. Director Nick Fury and Pepper Potts, who was communicating remotely, were both asking about the origins of the Iron Legion and the drones!
Even though Tony Stark tried his best to deny it, they all took it as a show of quiet pride.
At the same time.
White House.
World Security Council.
Sentinel Task Force.
Witnessing the scale and power of the Iron Legion, they couldn't help but once again consider how to seize it for themselves!
Especially General William Stryker, a hawk-ish elder who deeply hated mutants.
He could hardly wait to restart the Sentinel Program!
