Chapter 1376 Tony’s huge psychological pressure
In fact, it is not just Wayne and Shazam who are aware of this kind of snooping.
Even if this is indeed only an event that affects a small area, there is always someone at the center of the event!
At this time, Tony, who was in the center of the storm, also realized that something was wrong. He had a vague sense of this sense of prying eyes, but at the beginning, he only thought he was a man from SHIELD.
It’s funny to say that at first Tony thought it was SHIELD developing something new after mastering the technology of the witcher. He was quite happy at first.
But as Tony felt more and more prying eyes, he began to investigate to a certain extent.
As Tony realized that the observation methods used by SHIELD personnel could not avoid his investigation, he took off his clothes and realized that there was something weird in this matter!
However, this process was not completely fruitless. After the investigation, Tony's impression of SHIELD changed slightly.
Because when SHIELD personnel paid attention to him, they did not choose methods that were unacceptable to him.
Tony didn't like Nick Fury's approach of having everything under control at first, and he was also resistant to SHIELD acting in this way!
But now there's a change in the way SHIELD operates, which is of course a good thing.
It’s just that the results Tony got made the trouble even more serious!
Since it is not someone from SHIELD who is spying on him, then the guy who is spying on him is not a simple guy.
Tony himself is in a state of nervous tension because of the Ultron incident. Now any slight disturbance makes him feel huge pressure!
Tony is already considered strong-willed. He is no longer the playboy who has not experienced many changes.
Whether it was the ugliness he witnessed as Iron Man or the horrific things he saw as a member of humanity fighting against demons, Tony's will has been tempered!
But the impact Ultron has caused is much more terrifying than anything he has experienced in the past!
Tony didn't think at first that the feeling of being spied on might be his illusion, but no matter how many ways he used to change the current situation, he could still feel that kind of prying eyes.
Tony once thought that his spirit was severely damaged in the Ultron incident, causing him to fall into madness without knowing it!
But as Tony began to examine himself in depth and learned some knowledge about mental health and other aspects on his own, Tony did not find that his mental state had changed!
It was also from this moment that Tony firmly believed that the prying eyes he felt were not an illusion!
Ultron did not tell him the reason why he wanted to kidnap him at that time. Although Tony still looks normal on the surface, he has reached his limit in his heart!
And Tony can't even think of anyone to talk to about these worries!
Only the people closest to him can help him share these pressures, but even if Pepo listened to him, he could only worry with him.
In order to prevent Pepo from getting involved in these troubles, Tony can only choose to remain silent and bear the pressure alone!
As for other existences, it's not that Tony has given up on asking for help.
On the one hand, Tony's pride makes him unwilling to ask for help from others, and more importantly, Tony's trust level in others is that the strong people who can help him are relatively low.
He is no longer stubborn about the need to deal with demons. That is because he has understood that if humans want to resist the demons in the Burning Hell, they must get the help of the Nephalem and the High Heaven!
But there is not even a clue to the situation he is facing now!
Should Tony be asked to post advertisements everywhere to tell others that he feels being spied on, and then seek help from some "wonderful people"?
It would be easier to just call Constantine!
Tony still knows something about Constantine. After all, Constantine's past information has long been placed in SHIELD's database.
SHIELD's database is almost undefended for Tony, and Constantine's information does not require high-level confidentiality measures.
Although Constantine always takes huge risks when dealing with things, this guy is always very good at dealing with these strange things.
“Dong dong dong~”
There was a knock on Tony's door.
Tony glanced at the camera at the door for the first time and relaxed a little after realizing that the person standing outside the door was Nick Fury's life substitute.
He was not afraid that he would see a stranger at the door on the camera, but he was afraid that he would not see anything.
Sometimes Tony wonders if he has gone crazy, but he doesn't realize it yet.
Tony walked to the door, opened it, and then made way for a space large enough for Nick Fury to walk in.
He watched Nick Fury walking past him with a serious face. After passing Jarvis's examination and finding that Nick Fury had a normal body temperature, he felt a little relieved.
"I thought you would come here in person, why did you use a life substitute to see me?"
Tony asked eagerly before closing the door.
In his opinion, Nick Fury's performance is strange enough!
“You seem to be extra sensitive now. Is this a good thing for a scientist?”
Nick Fury did not answer Tony's question directly, but with Tony's intelligence, he still understood what he meant.
Nick Fury is worried that this sensitive person might kill Nick Fury directly because of some inexplicable stimulation!
Tony shook his head, noncommittal.
He doesn't know if he is necessarily safe now, but even if he understands Nick Fury's approach, he is still a little dissatisfied.
But he can't say anything now.
This taste further deepened Tony's anxiety!
“It is certainly a good thing for scientists to be sensitive, as it helps us grasp those subtle and difficult-to-see inspirations.
But for me, a scientist with a considerable degree of combat effectiveness, it is Not necessarily."
Tony smiled and said something self-deprecating.
He is not sure whether he can be as "normal" as before, instead of suddenly giving Nick Fury a blow in front of him in a violent mood.
"SHIELD has made appointments for you with many professional doctors in the spiritual field, but it seems that you haven't seen any of them so far?"
Nick Fury asked.
He was a little curious about how Tony considered it. After all, Tony's situation was here. To say that no one noticed it would be the stupidest joke.
“I can’t trust strangers, but I was kidnapped by the devil Ultron without any feeling.
Now I am afraid of being alone, but with other people The fear of people staying together has no intention of calming down.”
Tony closed the door and as he spoke, he walked to the wine cabinet and opened a bottle of whiskey for himself.
Usually he would find a glass, put ice cubes in it and enjoy the wine slowly.
But now he was a little rough and broke the mouth of the bottle directly at the table, and then poured it into his mouth violently!
Nick Fury's one eye flickered, and he realized that Tony's situation had reached a very serious level, but now he had no good way to help Tony.
Most of the best mental and spiritual doctors currently available are in the Arkham Sanitarium that Wayne rebuilt.
It's not like he doesn't know what Arkham represents. For him to convince Tony to go to Arkham, he can't get past his own level in the first place.
The doctors SHIELD contacted for Tony were indeed elites, but Tony himself showed an uncooperative attitude.
He can't force Tony to be sent to the doctor!
And to put it harshly, he is not sure that he can subdue Tony now! Without even investigating, Nick Fury could guess that Tony must have made a new arrangement for his security.
Even though Tony doesn't seem to be wearing a suit now, who knows if Tony can put on the equipment in just the blink of an eye.
After experiencing the previous kidnapping, it would be strangest if Tony was not prepared at all.
Even if Nick Fury is not a cutting-edge scientist, he can think of many plans to avoid the recurrence of previous encounters.
He would not think that Tony, a top scientist, would not think of these things!
Nick Fury is also troubled by Tony's situation. The more smart people get into trouble, the harder it is to get out of it.
And now Tony is very insecure. Faced with a smart man who is always insecure, many of Nick Fury's methods are difficult to work.
It may even cause counter-effects!
Nick Fury is very worried about Tony's condition. Tony is still a very important member of mankind today.
Although SHIELD has obtained the technology of the Demon Hunter, they are not satisfied with inheriting the technology and using it.
It is the right approach to innovate based on the original technology, and if you want to do this, you cannot do without the help of those scientists!
Although Tony was not the smartest person in the world, his importance has been enhanced due to the passing of Dr. Reed!
Even before, because of the "help" of those archangels, human technology has opened up a new path.
But with the end of Ultron time, mankind's trust in the Archangels has also been exhausted!
Today's human beings are unlikely to go through the process of building trust again when facing archangels. Only mutual use is a result acceptable to both parties!
"Tony, we don't have much time."
Nick Fury said very gently, he was afraid that his words would put more pressure on Tony.
Tony is well aware of the situations faced by human beings, and he also knows that the best result is for him to get into work as soon as possible.
"You are not the type to say these things. If you have any problems, just say it directly."
Tony acted very calmly, but his body was shaking involuntarily. The fact that he was in a very bad state at this time.
Nick Fury was a little hesitant. He didn't know if he should continue this conversation.
Fortunately, he still had less important things to share with Tony.
“Wayne is going to start a meeting about the future of mankind. I would like to ask you if you are willing to attend?
Of course, this is not a forced thing, but I also think it is. It’s necessary to do this.”
Nick Fury used Wayne as a shield.
He originally wanted to ask Tony if he could resume work as soon as possible.
Out of rationality, he knew how important the answer to this question was to mankind, but out of his sensibility, he gave up asking Tony this question at this time.
Tony is not the kind of person who shirks responsibility. Once this kind of question is asked, Tony will definitely say "no problem".
But Nick Fury has seen too many people who have suffered trauma, and Tony's situation looks very serious!
"I am willing to attend. I think Wayne wanted to contact me at the beginning, right?
Since he talked about this through you, then please tell him, I’m waiting for him at home today.”
Tony said.
Although he still couldn't suppress the instinctive trembling of his body, his mental state seemed to be a little more relaxed.
At least he didn't show any stress or mania.
Although Nick Fury still can't let go, Tony's performance also tells him that he should leave now.
As for the issue of "peeping" that Wayne mentioned, he did not mention it. This was one of the reasons why he only chose to use a life substitute during this trip.
Not only Wayne and Tony were very concerned about the identity of this unknown peeper, Nick Fury also immediately started investigating after learning about it.
According to the statement given by Wayne, the Nephalem's perception was blocked by this peeper.
Then you should try other perception methods of the game first to see if you can get any clues from them!
The arrival of Nick Fury is just part of the test. Next, he will arrange for the Lanterns from SHIELD to come nearby to try to find any clues!
"I know, I'll let Wayne know."
Nick Fury said.
Nick Fury understood that his hasty arrival and the use of a life substitute had already made Tony guess something.
But since Tony didn't say anything, it meant that Tony knew what he was doing.
Nick Fury realized almost instantly that Tony was also aware of the existence of the peeper. This is not difficult to understand!
After all, as the center of the spying, Tony will definitely notice some different changes!
This is also true.
Tony's mental state was slightly lifted, not just because he was going to have a meeting to discuss the future of mankind.
But he confirmed from what Nick Fury and Wayne were going to do that the feeling of being spied on was not his delusion and illusion!
Nothing can soothe an increasingly restless heart more than being recognized when a person is on the verge of collapse.
"Tony, take care of yourself and have a good rest."
After Nick Fury finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Tony's hand still held the bottle of whiskey that had its mouth broken. Although his hand was still shaking uncontrollably, he already felt calm in his heart.
He is sure of one thing, he is not alone!
His partners are not only those Nephalem who are so powerful that they almost subvert his previous understanding of the world, but also those who are just ordinary people like him.
Those he can understand and are familiar with are also his partners!
His nervousness about the new world now calmed down at this time!
