Chapter 129 This krypton is not that krypton (3 updates)
The auction items at the charity gala are not about what expensive items you put up for auction, but who paid for them. No matter how expensive the item is, no one bids for it, that is shame. On the other hand, worthless items are sold at sky-high prices, which is face.
As a warm-up session at the beginning, Ange's "fake" sold for US$3 million, which is definitely an exaggerated price.
For a moment, Tony thought he was giving Ange face, but after seeing Ange's mysterious smile, Tony took a closer look at the gold bracelet on his hand and couldn't help but burst into tears: "Fuck! This is the real thing!"
His voice attracted the attention of guests at several tables around him.
"Really?" Little Pepper was also confused.
It is true that most of Tony's physical attributes are at the level of a mortal, but his intelligence and perception are absolutely extraordinary.
You may not realize it when you look at it from a distance, but once you get it in your hand, the faint divinity on the bracelet cannot be concealed.
Tony had only seen a similar light on Thor.
It's a pity that his perception only supports him to detect this kind of light at close range, otherwise he would never have offered the three million price just now.
Now it seems that three million is not only not much, but also a bit too little.
Pepper Pepper whispered: "Isn't it the wrong time?"
Tony grimaced: "We'll talk about it when we get back."
The age of gold can be detected by X-ray diffractometer or atomic absorption spectrometer.
Normally, this would not be fake.
For a guy with the ability to open portals, this is not possible.
Unexpectedly, Ange lost an auction item, and Tony couldn't find anything to replace it.
Fortunately, Tony's auction items are out.
"Gentlemen and ladies, this is the original Iron Man MK8 type donated by Mr. Tony Stark. For safety, its flight system, weapon system and parts involving sensitive technological content have been dismantled. But even so, the mecha
The exoskeleton system can still help its users easily lift two tons of weight..."
Unexpectedly, as soon as the bidding started at 500,000, Ange immediately killed everyone in the audience.
"12.5 million!"
The whole place was dead silent.
To be honest, if it were a complete version of Iron Man, maybe competitors would buy it at a high price and take it back for study.
At a time when Iron Man is iterating to the MK42 type, the technological content of this early model is not high to begin with, let alone a castrated version with tons of content removed.
You must know that the average cost of drone armor previously developed by Hammer Company was only US$100 million. If mass production is carried out, the price can be lowered.
To put it bluntly, the exoskeleton system alone is not worth the money. This Mk8 is just a large toy.
Then, Ange gave Tony such face, which really flattered Tony.
In the eyes of others, Tony is seen as spending a lot of money, but he is actually very poor recently. He is so miserable that first the Stark Tower in Manhattan, New York, was seriously damaged, and then his villa in California was just bombed by Aldridge.
To rebuild these, which one does not cost money?
However, those who suffered heavy losses due to the destruction of New York all pointed their fingers at Tony, who was responsible for the destruction of New York.
Who told most superheroes to run away after a fight, but you, the Iron Man, are the only ones who have lost their online names and surfed the Internet under a real name?
Not to mention, someone actually filed a lawsuit based on the live video and asked Tony to compensate for the collateral losses. Even if the Stark Group's legal department has a battalion of people, there are many lambs who can't bear to eat wolf meat.
The United States is a country that enforces laws based on precedent. Once someone wins Tony's lawsuit, 10 million people will rise up.
At this moment, Ange bought Tony's big toy at a high price, and this donation will be counted on Tony. There is no doubt that this will make Tony's reputation in public opinion better.
Tony cast a grateful look at Ange - this guy is so capable!
He could completely imagine that Ange would mobilize his media tomorrow to make a big deal about this matter.
Ange once again made a big bet on a small target (at this time, the US dollar and soft girl coins were 1:8), which immediately attracted a lot of crazy bees and butterflies.
There is no reason why Ange deliberately asked Wonder Woman to be his female companion to calm down the show. Her noble temperament and strong aura alone can persuade many girls to turn away. However, they can't resist the bold ones, so they use various methods to stop them.
He made an excuse to come over to say hello and hand over a small piece of paper with their phone number written on it.
However, even Ange never imagined that one day he would become someone who would make headlines professionally.
Suddenly, the lights in the entire venue dimmed.
Even though it took less than two seconds for the venue to switch to the backup power supply, as a woman screamed, everyone noticed that something was wrong.
"ah--"
"Look! What is that?"
Following the man's direction, everyone saw a dazzling fireball falling from the sky over New York.
People with strong eyesight can even see that it is definitely not a meteor. The slow speed and rhythmic flashing light fully prove that it is an unnatural thing.
Tony and Ange looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
At this moment, all the TV screens in the venue were suddenly occupied, and the original electronic signals were cut off and turned into a ball of snowflakes.
No, there is still a human figure among the snowflakes.
A series of deep, robotic sounds came from the screen. They were not in a single language, but seemed to use different languages depending on the user's regional language.
"You are not alone..."
"I am General Zod."
"I come from a distant planet."
"I traveled across the vast sea of stars to find you. You protected one of my people. Now I ask you to hand him over to me."
"For some reason he chose to hide his existence from you. He did his best to blend in with you. He looks very similar to you. But he is not human. If anyone knows his location, the fate of your planet depends on you.
It’s in hand.”
"Kal-El! Did you hear that?"
"Come out and surrender within 24 hours! Or let the entire earth bear the consequences!"
The threatening voice ended, and the oppressive atmosphere disappeared immediately.
At a time when the haze of the New York War has not yet dissipated, the words of the alien who claimed to be General Zod easily aroused fear in people's hearts.
Without any words, the focus of everyone's attention immediately fell on the only superhero in the room - Iron Man Tony*.
Tony was not surprised by this, but he was a little angry: Why are you looking at me like this, Ange? By the way, you shouldn't have caused this Zod, right?
Ange seemed to understand Tony's question. Although my name is Ange Wayne, I am not the same person!
Ange smiled and put a hand on Wonder Woman's shoulder: I'm sorry, they are looking for one person, but I am with the same group.
Tony rolled his eyes: Yes! It's really not him.
Tony will never forget that Kratos was in a group of three when he was playing the Greek chariot, and this pretty girl must be one of them beside her.
Tony was muttering in his heart, and his old friend Colonel James Rhodes immediately called over with a life-threatening call: "Tony, it looks like the Avengers must assemble again."
