Roaming the universe, all thanks to your many dark skills!

"If we're lucky, maybe a week," said Stack-Pendix. "Experts believe there will be another monster attack before then."

“There used to be 30 Hunters parked here, but now we only have four left.”

At this point, he suddenly looked at Rosen and the other two and asked, "How many Hunters do you have?"

"Three." Tony Stark smiled and said, "We can always make more when needed."

"Well, that's good news." Stack-Pendix nodded.

"I didn't expect the situation to deteriorate so badly," said Raleigh Beckett.

"It's that bad." Styk-Pendix said, pointing to a red mecha standing next to him, and said, "Storm Red from China, one of the strongest hunters."

"Assembled in Changzhou, it is made entirely of titanium, without any alloys. Each muscle is driven by 50 diesel engines. It is a precise and deadly fighter. It is piloted by the Wei brothers, the triplets are locals, and have successfully defended the port of Hong Kong Island seven times."

“They adopted Thunder Cloud computing integration and three-arm operation, and the effect was remarkable.”

At this time, Rosen caught a glimpse of three young men in red sports vests playing basketball nearby. They must be the so-called Wei brothers.

Then Stek-Pendix took them to see the last T90S tank, the Cherno Alpha, the first generation of mecha, the oldest and heaviest hunter in service. (Note)

"It never makes mistakes. It's a brutal war machine. It's piloted by Sasha and Alex Kadnovsky."

"I've heard of them, patrolling outside the Siberian city walls," said Raleigh.

"They guarded there for six years." Steck said with emotion: "Six whole years."

As a former hunter pilot himself, he knew too well how difficult and dangerous these six years had been, so he looked at the two of them with admiration in his eyes.

"Heck, Chuck."

Styk-Pendix pointed to a middle-aged man walking towards him and said, "Everyone, this is Hercules-Hansen, an old friend from the first generation of mecha era."

"Heck, and his son Chuck were the turning point."

Pointing to the huge mecha next to him, Steck said: "They are driving the Eureka Raider, which is the fastest hunter in the world, the first and last fifth-generation mecha. Australia announced its retirement the day before Sydney was attacked." (Note 2)

"Luckily we didn't leave." Heck said thankfully.

"This is our turning point now," said Stack-Pendix.

"Wait, what turning point? You haven't told me what I'm doing here yet?" Raleigh Beckett asked in surprise.

Tony Stark asked, "You're not asking us to rush into the monster's lair with a nuclear bomb and kill them all, are you?"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but recall the scene when he carried a nuclear bomb into the space channel during the Battle of New York.

At that time, I rushed forward without thinking about anything. I was so scared when I thought about it afterwards. Now I have run away to this world that has almost nothing to do with me. If it happens again...

Tony Stark didn't want to think about it anymore.

But Stack Pendix and Heck Hansen looked at him at the same time, with a look of surprise and recognition in their expressions.

"No way?!" Tony said.

"You guessed it right. Just like you did in your world, we will destroy the crossing point, Mr. Stark." Stike-Pendix said, "We will put a one-ton thermo-nuclear warhead on the back of the Raider, which is equivalent to 120 million tons of TNT explosives."

He looked at Raleigh Beckett and said, "You and the other two Hunters are tasked with covering them. And you..."

Stack Pendix looked at Rosen, Tony Stark and Alita and said, "If you are willing to participate, you will be responsible for patrolling the periphery and blocking the attacks of the monsters."

"I thought we were just resistance fighters." Raleigh asked in surprise, "Where did you get such a big thing?"

"See those Russians?" said Stack-Pendix. "They have everything."

"General, we have attacked the crossing before, but it was useless. We couldn't penetrate it. Is there anything different this time?" asked Raleigh Beckett.

"We already have a plan, all you have to do is be prepared." Stack-Pendix obviously didn't want to say more, so he called Heck and left.

"The so-called plan is actually no plan at all." Tony Stark curled his lips and said with a bit of disdain: "No matter which world they are in, these people's clichés have never changed."

"That's why we're all counting on you." Rosen patted his shoulder and said, "It's better to do it before they take action, or..."

After pointing to the war clock on the wall, he continued: "Think of a solution to the problem before the monster attacks again."

"Perhaps... Mr. Stark can talk to Dr. Newton Goetzel and Dr. Herman Gottlieb in the base."

Mori Mako, who had been standing nearby and listening to their conversation, suddenly said, "One of them is a biologist who studies monsters, and the other is a mathematician who studies the laws of monster behavior. Perhaps you can get some useful inspiration from them."

"Thank you for your reminder. I will definitely go if necessary." Tony Stark replied with a smile.

When Rosen saw him like this, he knew that he would definitely not go.

After all, Tony Stark has his own pride, especially in scientific research, and he rarely gives in easily.

Later, Mako Mori took Raleigh Beckett to his room to put his luggage, and then repeatedly invited Rosen and others to stay and enjoy dinner at the Hunter Base.

Unable to refuse the hospitality, Rosen and the other two went to the restaurant and enjoyed a meal which was considered quite sumptuous at the time.

Of course, they also saw the scene where Heck Hansen's son Chuck Hansen attacked Rowley Beckett.

To be honest, Chuck Hansen looked like he deserved a beating when he spoke, which really made Rosen feel itchy.

However, this kid didn't provoke him for no reason, so Rosen naturally wouldn't stand up for Rowley for no reason.

"This kid has more personality than I did when I was young." Tony Stark praised.

"Don't blame him." Heck-Hansen said to Rowley apologetically: "I raised him myself. He is very smart, but I have never figured out whether to give him a hug or kick him away."

"Excuse me, sir." Rowley raised his eyebrows and said, "You really should kick him."

"Haha..." Rosen and others present all laughed at the same time.

After finishing their meal, just as Rosen and the other two were about to say goodbye and leave, Stack-Pendix appeared again and invited them to visit Raleigh's co-pilot selection activities.

So Rosen, Tony Stark and Alita saw Raleigh Beckett knock down a group of co-pilot candidates on the field with a short stick.

"Rosen, I'm a little confused. What does the selection of the co-pilot have to do with the current fight?" Tony Stark asked Rosen in a low voice.

"I don't know either." Rosen shook his head and said, "Maybe it's to cultivate tacit understanding."

"Does defeating the opponent count as tacit understanding?" Tony Stark looked at him and Alita beside him and said, "According to this logic, then the tacit understanding between you and him must be explosive."

"Mr. Stark, are you interested in coming to the court to play?" Raleigh, who had just defeated a candidate again, suddenly looked at Tony Stark who was whispering on the sidelines and said.

"If you agree to let me wear the Iron Man suit, then of course there is no problem." Tony answered without hesitation.

This statement may sound cowardly if spoken by others, but it is quite convincing when it comes from Tony Stark's mouth.

"So, what about Mr. Rosen?" Raleigh looked at Rosen with a sharp gaze full of provocation. Obviously, this was his real purpose.
