Falling in an arc, Mark 0 suddenly slowed down as it dipped even closer to the sand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony was stunned for a moment before he quickly understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flying Angel of Judgment was propelling him from behind. Only by dipping even lower would he have more time to offset the enormous inertia caused by Mark 0’s descent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke had no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tycoon’s last explosive burst had been too fierce. In just a few seconds, he sent himself 400 meters into the air. Then, the engine cut out and Tony started to free fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his jets, Luke could only dash over from the side to save Mark 0 in order to save the tycoon’s life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the White Wolf Armor’s jet system was far inferior to Tony’s Iron Man Armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because the tycoon’s armor had a palladium reactor, and the White Wolf Armor didn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Luke knew how to make a first-generation arc reactor, but he hadn’t obtained any palladium yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were nuclear materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The biggest problem with this thing wasn’t that it was scarce, but that the production and sale of palladium was strictly controlled by all governments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every transaction was bound to be recorded down, and there weren’t many agencies or organizations who could use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t a problem for Tony to use a bit of palladium. For example, when Stark made certain missiles, a very small amount of palladium was used: about 0.15 grams in each missile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if Luke wanted to buy it from someone else, he would easily draw attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the FBI and the CIA knew how many big fish they had caught with this sensitive material as bait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Luke dared buy it off the black market, he would definitely become a target, since those who would buy this thing basically wouldn’t use it for anything good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most weapons dealers, even the worst ones, wouldn’t sell it casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke, who didn’t have an arc reactor, could thus only use this jet system which was far less efficient than the Iron Man armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the most difficult problem with high-speed flight was the energy supply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as there was enough energy for propulsion, and enough quantity to substitute for quality, a few dozen third-rate suits on a battlefield would be no less practical than Tony’s Mark 1; they would also only be a fraction of the cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke wasn’t arrogant and wouldn’t look down on Tony’s extravagance; he wanted his own armor to be as strong one day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Luke’s help, Tony continued forward several dozen meters more in Mark 0 before he hit the sand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the impact wasn’t too great, and Mark 0 got its legs stuck in the sand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke, who had let go at the last minute, flew over ten meters with the momentum before he returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pulling Tony out, he asked, “How do you feel? You won’t die, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony finally heaved a sigh of relief and coughed. “No,cough cough, no problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke picked him up and ran some distance before he found a pile of rocks to hide Tony in. “Wait here for a moment. I’ll clean up those guys.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony was stunned. “Wait, we should find reinforcements first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were a lot of people down there, and they had almost killed him just now. He didn’t think it was a good idea for the Angel of Judgment to go back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke chuckled. “I’m not you.” With that, he jogged over the ridge and disappeared from Tony’s sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony smacked his lips, finding the man’s words a little not to his liking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had just been saved, and he had no right to be angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He struggled to move so that his upper torso was in the shadow of the rocks, and he felt slightly better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun was too bright here, and after being exposed to it for too long, he felt like a steak on a metal plate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he was even more helpless to fix the fact that his crotch was hot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rock could only cover his upper torso, so he could only let his crotch suffer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hot baths for a week when I get back!As Tony made this decision, he heard gunshots from the other side of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was different from what he had expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the beginning, the gunfire was intense, but after two minutes, it dropped off significantly, and then stopped altogether in less than five minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten minutes later, Luke appeared over the ridge again and glided over to Tony. After examining him for a moment, he asked, “Isn’t the metal skin warm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony looked conflicted. “I can’t take it off without help.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke nodded. “That’s true. After all, you built it with your own hands in an emergency. Let’s go. I’ll take you back to look for tools.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Picking Tony up again, Luke activated the jets and slowly flew back to the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the scenery around him, Tony couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong with your jet engine?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke immediately understood. “Too slow? From the day it was designed, it wasn’t meant to bear the load of two people, much less this big lump of iron on you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony had nothing to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When this person flew solo, he was quite fast. As a one-man flight system focused on agility, it was top-notch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, it was Mark 0 who slowed it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without specialized gold titanium alloy to guarantee sufficient protection, Tony could only make up for the lack of mass with weight, so Mark 0 was over three times heavier than Mark 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But without this thick shell, he wouldn’t have been able to withstand the heavy machine gun fire just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After crossing the ridge and sliding down, they finally sped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony couldn’t help but ask, “Who are you? Why did you save me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke said, “Haven’t you seen me on TV? They all call me the Angel of Judgment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony wasn’t used to this pace of conversation. Had he ever acted like a fanboy earlier?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke said, “Fine, I was just kidding. You can call me White Wolf. Tony Stark is qualified to know my codename.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony asked, “Do you know me, Mr. White Wolf?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke chuckled. “Stark Industries. Few people in the world don’t know it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief silence, Tony said, “Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke said, “Don’t thank me too soon. I think it’s best if we maintain a purely business relationship.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tony: “What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People who were friends with Tony often had to pick up after his rotten behavior, girlfriends included.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luke didn’t think it was a good choice to be his friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, this was the first time that White Wolf and Tony had met, so he should act like he wasn’t familiar with the tycoon.\u003C\u002Fp>",1173,"2026-06-06T03:36:06.314Z",1,"novelbin.me","410a3d2622da874a285822d86f714473d714f6a5e7314e3533676f520a601e57","super-detective-in-the-fictional-world-chapter-816","super-detective-in-the-fictional-world-chapter-814",2233,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-detective-in-the-fictional-world-cover.jpg"]
