Paradise Tower, in the living room of a 66th-floor apartment.
Rhodey awkwardly looked at the two glaring women, gave a dry laugh, and said:
"Um, Gwen, why are you here?"
Gwen had said she was going home tonight.
Earlier, Rhodey had even sent her home.
But why was she here again now?
"I called Gwen." Daisy said with a resentful expression, "You never came home, and your phone couldn't be reached, so I could only contact Gwen to ask if you were still with her."
Phone?
Rhodey remembered and took his phone out of his interdimensional space.
His phone had been left on the passenger seat earlier.
When the car was stored in the interdimensional space, it was also stored along with it.
That's why Daisy couldn't reach Rhodey's phone.
Careless!
If he had known, he would have taken out his phone earlier. In that case, with just Daisy alone, it would have been much easier to fool her than with Gwen and Daisy both present.
Hmm...
It wasn't exactly fooling.
After all, Rhodey and Wanda hadn't done anything yet!
"Speak, where did you go?"
Gwen looked at Rhodey with warm anger. This philandering scumbag, why couldn't he give her a break?
Were two girlfriends not enough to satisfy him?
Did he have to find a third?
"No, you misunderstood!" Rhodey said, "I didn't go messing around. I went to fight the Avengers earlier. Did you see the bright light in the sky before? That was me fighting a guy named Vision from the Avengers in space."
"You went to fight the Avengers?!"
The two women looked at him with question marks on their faces.
"Why?"
They asked in confusion.
Out of nowhere, why fight the Avengers?
"A misunderstanding, it was all a misunderstanding. It's all cleared up now."
Rhodey said.
"Really?"
The two women looked at him suspiciously.
They always felt that Rhodey hadn't told them the whole story, as if he was hiding something.
"Of course it's true, would I lie to you?"
Rhodey looked heartbroken.
"Am I really so insincere in your eyes?"
As a result, both Gwen and Daisy nodded, looking at him with an expression that said, "How dare you say you're sincere."
This made Rhodey extremely embarrassed.
So he pretended to be angry and said, "Alright~! So that's how I look in your eyes. Fine, think whatever you want!"
Rhodey turned and walked away, looking heartbroken.
Behind him;
Gwen and Daisy exchanged glances, then shook their heads helplessly.
This guy, changing the subject again!
And yet, they still fell for it.
"Rhodey, don't be angry! We didn't mean it, we were just joking."
The two women quickly went to comfort Rhodey, afraid that he would really get angry.
"Just saying it was a joke is enough?"
Rhodey said with a straight face.
"Then what do you want? We'll listen to you!"
Gwen and Daisy quickly said.
"You said that yourselves!"
Rhodey's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the two with a chuckle.
Oh no!
They fell for it!
Gwen and Daisy secretly thought, 'This is bad, he's not going to make some outrageous request, is he?'
"Want to regret it?"
"Too late!"
Rhodey said triumphantly.
"Well, I have to go home. I'll talk to you later. See you tomorrow!"
Gwen saw this and quickly found an excuse to escape.
But Rhodey pulled her into his arms.
He held her tightly.
"You came, and now you want to leave?"
...
In the lounge at Avengers Base.
A group of Avengers sat separately, the atmosphere subtle.
Just then;
Tony walked in from the corridor, his face grim.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Natasha asked quickly when she saw him.
"Vision is in trouble. Satellite footage shows him floating in space, completely still."
Tony said.
"I'm going to bring him back now, and then we'll figure out what exactly went wrong."
Upon hearing the news that Vision was in trouble, the Avengers present no longer dwelled in their previous low spirits.
One by one, they began to worry about Vision's condition.
A moment later;
A burst of Fire shot into the sky outside.
It was Tony flying away in his Iron Man armor, equipped with a space combat system.
Hadn't Tony purchased Vibranium from Rhodey several times before?
After the Ultron incident, he used this Vibranium to create an Iron Man armor capable of space combat!
However, unlike previous Iron Man armors, this armor was much larger!
It was even much larger than the Hulkbuster armor!
Tony named it the "Guardian Armor," meaning a warrior who protects humanity.
Tony had placed great expectations on this armor.
And so;
The Guardian Armor's weapon system was the most powerful among all of Tony's armors throughout history!
It not only carried various explosive and energy weapons found on other Iron Man armors but also added nuclear weapons, laser weapons, and three types of melee weapons.
Among the melee weapons was a Vibranium greatsword.
The blade of the greatsword alone was a full five or six meters long!
However, compared to the Guardian Armor's eight-meter height, this length was just right for it to use.
In addition to this;
The Vibranium used in the Guardian Armor was more than thirty times that of a normal Iron Man armor!
It cost Tony a fortune, combined with what Ultron found, and what was subsequently purchased from Rhodey, to gather enough Vibranium.
And so;
The Guardian Armor could absorb even more massive amounts of energy.
It wouldn't quickly reach its absorption limit.
The Guardian Armor's combat power was extremely strong. In simulated combat, Tony used the Guardian Armor to single-handedly challenge the entire Avengers.
The result was that the Guardian Armor's win rate was as high as 82.5%!
This shows just how powerful this armor truly was.
It's important to note that;
Tony even included Hulk and Thor in his calculations.
And still, it had an 82.5% win rate.
If they weren't included, wouldn't the win rate be 100%?
However, even with such a powerful armor.
Tony had never thought of using this armor to threaten Rhodey before.
On one hand, he didn't want to do that.
On the other hand, Tony believed it would be completely useless!
Where did most of his Vibranium come from?
Wasn't it purchased from Rhodey?
