...
The next day, early morning.
X-wing stealthily appeared over Iron Man's mansion in the sky.
George spread his wings, took Wolverine away from the mansion's guards, and descended directly from the air to the balcony, using an unlocking spell to enter the living room of the mansion.
Tony, who was sleeping soundly at the time, was suddenly woken up by J.A.R.V.I.S's alarm.
"Sir, there are strangers entering the living room, should we notify security to drive them away?"
"Not necessary, I'll handle it personally... George?"
Awoken by J.A.R.V.I.S's alarm, Tony immediately sat up and wanted to test out the armor he had just assembled, only to find that the person appearing in the camera was someone who had saved his life before.
Dressed, Tony went to the living room to ask J.A.R.V.I.S to prepare a cup of coffee for him.
"Amazing magician, I never expected to see you again in the living room of my mansion."
"I know who hired those terrorists to attack you."
George didn't waste any words, opening with a huge punch.
Tony's expression immediately became serious as this huge punch landed:
"Who is it?"
"Obadiah Stane!"
George blurted out, and Tony's pupils instantly constricted.
"How are you so sure it's him?"
"Because I'm a mutant, with mental abilities, and I've used them on Obadiah Stane before."
George replied calmly.
Tony smiled at this moment.
"I guessed you were a mutant. I thought there were no more mutants in this world, but it seems there are still some."
At his level, the government's tactics to deceive ordinary people no longer work. Although he had not paid much attention to mutants before, he had some knowledge about their situation.
So, after seeing George display those amazing abilities that day, Tony had some suspicions in his mind.
After returning, he specifically looked into the information about mutants and knew a lot about their history.
"That's the famous Wolverine, if I'm not mistaken. Your hands can really pop out steel claws, just like a cat?"
Turning his head to look at the Wolverine, who was casually smoking a cigar and drinking his expensive wine with an air of familiarity, Tony recalled the information he had seen from the files and asked half-jokingly.
The Wolverine didn't respond, but instead raised his right hand, quickly popping out three wolf claws, and then slowly retracting the other two, leaving only the middle one, as if he had made a gesture of a middle finger.
"Alright, next time you come here, you won't have any wine to drink."
Tony turned back to George:
"Say, why did you specifically come to me and tell me such important information, what conditions do you have?"
Given his understanding of George from their previous contact, George is not the type to help others without any conditions. In addition, he had just found out that George may also have some connections with the Lyons family yesterday.
George asked in some surprise:
"Don't you doubt the authenticity of this information I'm telling you?"
Just met once, he doesn't believe that Tony trusts him so much.
Tony sat down heavily on the sofa:
"First of all, you saved my life. Whether it was because of money or not, I think you wouldn't go out of your way to deceive me."
With your abilities, you could have threatened and exploited me to gain greater benefits at that time, but you didn't do that either. You just earned a negligible difference in stock prices."
Secondly, I also suspect that the abduction incident is related to Obadiah. After all, if I were to die, the company would be his. And those cluster bombs sold to the terrorists—only he has the authority to do that.
Lastly, I very much trust my intuition and judgment."
In the terrorist cave, he had suspected Obadiah, but the years of friendship made him still unwilling to think that way.
But it wasn't until last night's party that he heard with his own ears that Obadiah had allied with shareholders to remove him from his position, and then he knew for certain that Obadiah was absolutely suspicious.
"It seems you're very smart."
George was not too surprised either. He wouldn't consider Tony Stark a fool, as the man's IQ ranks among the top tier of superheroes.
He wouldn't have been able to maintain control if it weren't for his knowledge of the storyline's advantage.
"I do need to cooperate with you on some facts and also need your help in creating something."
"Creating something is fine, but for cooperation, you first need to tell me how we can work together and what specifically we need to do."
George owed him a lifesaving debt, although it was mainly for money, he felt very grateful. As long as it didn't violate his principles, he was more than willing to help.
"No problem, you can take a look at this first."
George threw a USB drive to Tony, who caught it and inserted it into the projector in the living room.
Soon, a video was projected onto the wallpaper in the living room.
It was exactly the incriminating evidence of those experiments that Gafaela had secretly recorded at her laboratory in Mexico.
After watching the video, Tony's expression was also very unpleasant. He hadn't expected there to be such inhumane laboratories in the world.
It's actually using innocent women to give birth to mutant children and forcing them to become killers. That's absolutely inhumane.
"Tony, to be honest with you, I was also an experiment in this laboratory. Originally numbered 757, I fused multiple mutant genes."
Later, I escaped the laboratory with those children and found Logan to help us come to New York.
However, the Alexandria Genetics Corporation has been pursuing and killing us ever since.
"That's why I want to cooperate with you and destroy the Alexandria Genetics Corporation together to prevent them from using innocent children for cruel experiments again..."
George told Tony the general outline of the story with nine truths and one lie, emphasizing the heavy and light aspects. He didn't mention the Mutant Academy or Professor X; instead, he focused on the evil of the Alexandria Genetics Corporation.
Indeed, with the video as evidence, Tony didn't have any doubt and instead had a full face of anger.
Thinking about his decision in the cave earlier and the goal of creating the Mark armor, he slapped the table in front of him and replied:
"I will definitely help you destroy the Alexandria Genetics Corporation!"
"Okay."
With Tony Stark's positive response, George's face lit up with a smile.
In fact, given his understanding of Tony Stark, even without him, as long as Tony knew what the Alexandria Genetics Corporation was doing, he wouldn't have ignored it.
As super heroes, regardless of other things, their hearts are still good.
"By the way, before that, I wanted you to help me make something."
Next, George described his requirements for the staff and gave Tony a general idea of what he needed.
"Can it be made?"
"I want a metal rod that can allow special energy to flow freely, this is not too difficult, but you have to let me test the properties of this energy first before I can design it."
Tony thought for a moment before replying.
George nodded, taking out a storage bead containing some of his own magic.
"That's the kind of energy."
"Alright, come with me!"
Tony picked up the bead and immediately led George and Wolverine to the basement.
He then operated the machine to start testing, and the results were quickly available.
"No problem. According to my calculations, by fusing these materials into a special alloy, it should meet your requirements."
