Chapter 15: More!
Ignoring Polaris, Alex put on his sunglasses and walked onto the street.
As soon as he stepped onto the street, he noticed people pointing at him and heard the discussions around him: "White hair, wearing sunglasses, could he be that "mutant"?"
A companion shook their head and said: "Probably just some imitator. How could a random passerby be the white-haired mutant?"
Alex was a bit puzzled. White-Haired Mutant? Then he saw the big screen on the side of the street and watched for a moment, instantly understanding...
He was famous?
On the big screen, a man in his thirties was speaking confidently,
"I was hiding in a nearby shop, just ten meters away from the White-Haired Mutant, and witnessed his battle with another mutant. I am sure he is definitely stronger than Magneto and is currently the most powerful mutant in the world."
???
Alex's forehead immediately showed a few black lines. What was up with this damn reporter? Although he was definitely going to become the strongest mutant in the future, he was only in the early stages right now. He was not currently the most powerful mutant.
Not to mention that his Limitless Technique couldn't resist mental attacks at this time; just the Phoenix host itself was much stronger than him.
How was he supposed to develop quietly with people calling him the strongest mutant now?
He glanced at the name tag below the man, which read: Eddie Brock.
Alex felt the name was familiar. Thinking carefully, he finally remembered. Wasn't this Venom's host?
Alex then ignored Eddie Brock and looked towards the tallest building in the Manhattan area. It was one of the most famous buildings in the Marvel world, Stark Tower.
To obtain the Arc Reactor, he needed to get in touch with Tony Stark. Heading directly to Stark Tower was definitely the quickest way.
Tony Stark had just returned and was about to have a conflict with Obadiah Stane. Saving him during the conflict should be worth an Arc Reactor, right?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Of course, if Tony Stark was still unwilling to hand over the Arc Reactor, there was always the one on him.
Pulling up the hood of his white hoodie, Alex slowly walked towards Stark Tower.
Around him, the light dimmed slightly. Various energies invisible to ordinary people continuously flowed into his body under the precise control of his Level 2 Six Eyes and the effects of Level 3 Energy Absorption.
Although slower than direct contact with energy, it was sustainable.
This greatly enhanced his combat endurance and increased the efficiency of energy collection.
The system's notification sounded continuously:
[Energy Point +1]
[Energy Point +1]
[Six Eyes Experience +1]
[Six Eyes Experience +1]
[Energy Absorption Experience +1]
[Energy Absorption Experience +1]
...
Stark Tower, located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, is the tallest building in the area. Its duck-billed top is highly noticeable and suits Tony Stark's flamboyant personality.
When Alex arrived at Stark Tower, it was already late. He walked towards the entrance, but a few security guards stopped him.
The guards asked,
"Sir, hello, please show your ID."
Of course, Alex didn't have any ID. Even though he knew the guards wouldn't let him through, he replied honestly,
"I have urgent business with Tony Stark. Please inform him."
As expected, the guards were stunned for a moment, then exchanged glances.
They wanted to laugh, but their top-notch professional training prevented them from doing so. One of the guards, barely holding back a smile, said "Sir, it's not April Fools' Day today. This isn't funny."
Knowing this would happen, Alex felt a bit annoyed. He rubbed his smooth white hair and continued,
"Guys, this isn't a joke."
Seeing that Alex didn't want to leave and continued to pester them, the guards' expressions gradually turned serious. They clearly took him as a troublemaker.
Just as Alex was about to display some of his special abilities to 'convince' the guards, a few cars pulled up. A figure stepped out first, followed by several men in black suits with a cold
demeanor.
They noticed the confrontation at the entrance but didn't care, rushing straight into the building. Obviously, they had more important matters to attend to.
Alex immediately recognized the leading woman. With her golden hair and black dress, who else could it be but Pepper Potts?
'It looks like it's time for me to be a hero to a hero.'
Alex rubbed his chin with two fingers, contemplating.
He then looked at the security guards slowly closing in on him and took off his round-framed sunglasses from his prominent nose.
The guards immediately halted. They stared at his exquisite, glowing blue eyes, recalling the recent, most talked-about news in their minds.
The white haired mutant.
In their last moments of consciousness, they saw the man before them smirk and heard him
say softly.
"Sorry, gentlemen, but please 'rest' for a while!"
...
Pepper Potts led a group of agents briskly into the building.
After Agent Coulson used a mini explosive to break the lock, they continued toward Section
16.
The interior of Section 16 was dimly lit, filled with numerous mechanical devices, and several iron chains hung from the ceiling. A huge, rough metal armor stood in a corner.
Looking at the iron armor, Coulson said to Pepper.
"Looks like you were right. He is building armor."
They pressed on, with Pepper's attention caught by screens filled with complex data. She stopped in front of several chains, just as she was about to proceed further...
Suddenly!
Two huge eyes, glowing with pale light, lit up from the darkness!
"Ah!!!"
A piercing scream shattered the nighttime peace.
Pepper ran out, chased by the massive iron armor behind her.
Several agents instinctively fired at the Iron Monger, but they were quickly crushed by its
terrifying metal fists.
In the blink of an eye, only Coulson and Pepper remained alive from the team sent to capture
Obadiah Stane.
Pepper squeezed through a narrow door, with the massive Iron Monger getting stuck in the solid concrete walls, allowing her to escape.
As she ran past the circular arc reactor, planning to flee Stark Tower, something caught her
eye!
Countless terrifying white currents flowed from the arc reactor, emitting a piercing chirping sound, enveloping a handsome white-haired man.
Despite being surrounded by such terrifying currents, the white-haired man remained
unharmed. Instead, he spread his arms, his exquisite blue eyes filled with delight,
"More, give me more!"
Witnessing the incredible scene before her, Pepper instinctively stopped, momentarily
forgetting to run!
