Chapter 464 The stinky fart of the Stark family
The war came to the North American continent suddenly and unprepared.
The news got back to the White House, and the "gentlemen" were once again panicked.
Unlike the last time "Aliens Arrive in New York" was just a false alarm in the end, "The Gentlemen" not only suffered no losses, but also received technical support that was far ahead of its time, making it a huge profit.
This time the wolf really cried.
The little Japanese devil is more ruthless than a wolf!
"Why? Why did Orientals appear in Washington State? How did they cross the Pacific?"
"What is the Pacific Fleet doing? Didn't the enemy even notice when they arrived at their doorstep?"
"This is malfeasance! Kimmel should be court-martialed!"
The panicked "gentlemen" could not accept the cruel reality, and they gradually regained their senses after shouting incompetently for several minutes.
Franklin Roosevelt had already picked up the phone and called Stark, but this time it was a different Stark.
"Howard, I hope you can break free from the embrace of ladies for a while and make good friends with your future son..."
Howard on the other end of the phone immediately screamed and complained loudly: "Sir, I'm only thirty years old, how do you expect me to accept a son who is over fifty years old?"
"Listen, I know he is not your son, but America needs you and his special status now." Roosevelt's tone suddenly became cold, and he said seriously: "I already felt this Stark in the last meeting. Mr. Xi’s dissatisfaction with us, the White House cannot respond to him as quickly as before.”
"Uh..." Howard Stark was obviously not an idiot. He heard Roosevelt's subtext, so he immediately asked: "Sir, what happened?"
"The Japanese army suddenly appeared in Washington state, Olympia fell, Seattle and Portland will definitely not be able to defend it. With the existing military power in the west, San Francisco and Los Angeles will not be able to defend it."
"..." Howard took a breath, immediately pushed away the three bodies clinging to him, climbed up from the hotel bed, and said quickly: "I will go find him now, and I will stay with him in the future. Side.”
Not only his patriotism, but more importantly Stark Industries' business. Mr. President has already spoken to this point. If he is not active anymore, the Pentagon will definitely remove Stark Industries from the list of suppliers in the coming year. Cull.
This is a national crisis. If he can't do it or there is someone else who can replace him, that's it. At least he has an excuse to shirk the blame. Now he is the only one who can do this. It's not only stupid but also bad to act petty.
The playboy, who was in his prime, immediately drove to his "son"'s villa after coming out of the hotel.
Tony Stark purchased a property for the Avengers in New York in 1939 as a new headquarters building, located on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, including the Empire State Building and its surrounding area.
Yes, Tony surrounded the entire portal and used automated construction robots to build a hundred-meter-high wall. He also bulldozed most of the high-rise buildings inside and transformed them into an airport, leaving only the Empire State Building and a nearby building. A tall building serves as office and residential space.
He also dealt with the portals in several other cities in this way, but in order to alleviate the anger of the refugees in the main universe of the movie, Tony made new rules for them. After meeting certain conditions, they can immigrate to the safe time and space of 1939.
This time and space is not only safe, but also backward.
The refugees have all been exposed to time-travel movies and TV shows, and they also know Mark Twain's "The Connecticut Yankee in the King of Arthur." Ever since they learned that the other side of the portal is the time and space of 1939, they have been imagining what they would do if they traveled through the past. How to make money and become prosperous, how to accept a younger brother as the boss, how to become king and dominate.
With this carrot, most of the refugees stopped making trouble, and a small number of those who wanted to make trouble gradually lurked after some suppression, trying to obtain immigration qualifications as soon as possible and go to the time and space eighty years ago to become noble travelers.
It's a pity that before the refugees' dreams can be put into practice, reality has changed in a direction that they are completely unable to understand. "Mr. Stark, your father Howard is here to visit." The artificial intelligence "Friday" is obviously not as human as Jarvis.
Since the Ultron incident, Tony has deliberately limited the humanity of the new version of artificial intelligence.
So Jarvis is special. He is a family member that young Tony re-created for himself after losing his parents. Too much emotion was invested in the design process.
"Remember, although this man is closely related to me on a genetic level, he is not my father." Tony emphasized to "Friday" again.
Even so, at least the other party has a special relationship with him.
"Open the door and let him in."
Roosevelt's judgment was correct. After several contacts, he could feel that Tony valued his friends and family. After all, this Tony was an old Tony who could sacrifice himself for his family and friends.
If it were someone in the White House, even Cordell Hull as Secretary of State, he might be rejected after the unpleasant atmosphere last time.
"Wow!" After Howard entered the door, he looked around and praised, half surprised and half pretentious: "The equipment here is so advanced!"
"This... what are these things?"
Howard swore that if it weren't for America, he would never act like an idiot who has never seen the world.
Although he has never seen these advanced equipment, he is so proud!
Tony felt inexplicably relieved when he saw his embarrassed look. Although the man was not his father and he might not be able to give birth to Tony Stark in this universe in the future, seeing this face reminded him of the experience of being scolded by him in the past. Compared to his current appearance, which he had never seen before, Tony always felt inexplicably happy.
Just like a child who has always been looked down upon by his parents, he finally surpasses his parents, returns home in fine clothes, and makes his parents bow their heads and admit their mistakes...
"The analog workbench is an inconspicuous little thing. I made it twenty years ago." Tony said with a calm expression.
Howard glanced at him and confirmed in his heart: This guy is indeed his son! When you fart, it's like looking at yourself in the mirror.
"Wow, you are so awesome!" Howard gritted his teeth and acted like a clown for the sake of America.
"It's okay. Nobel Prize was awarded to me several times, but I didn't have time to go." Tony still looked calm.
"..." Howard was silent for a moment, and then persuaded himself to continue praising: "Really? I have never been nominated."
Tony was so happy that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes could no longer be suppressed.
After a while of disgusting flattery, Howard finally stated his intention: "Smart Mr. Stark, do you know why the Japanese army appears in Washington State?"
"Of course I know, Friday will bring up the satellite cloud images." Tony already knew his purpose.
