Howard’s “Relic”

"Are you the devil?" Tony couldn't help blurting out.

"Oh! They say I'm a god. Forget it, don't worry about such trivial matters. I came here to see you today because I heard that you seem to have a physical problem, right?"

Hearing Loki mention his physical problems, Tony still wanted to be tough: "No, there is no problem. In front of my genius, Tony Stark, any problem can be solved. I just haven't found the inspiration yet."

"Oh? In this case, it seems that the famous Tony Stark does not need the help of this old guy like me. Then I hope you can find inspiration as soon as possible and solve your own problems."

Loki knew that Tony was trying to save face and suffer, but he just wanted to tease him. So although Loki promised Howard to help Tony, he still pretended to get up and leave.

"Wait a minute!" As expected [Tony called out to Loki. "Um...can you really help me solve the palladium poisoning problem caused by the Ark reactor?"

Tony didn't know what was wrong with him, that he would place his hopes on someone he could only call himself an acquaintance.

Maybe he had failed on this issue too many times, or maybe Tony had temporarily put down his dignity in order not to make Pepper sad.

In short, Tony couldn't help but trust Loki when he suddenly appeared in his home and the magical methods he showed just now.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you solve your problem. However, didn't you say that you just lack an inspiration now? I came to you today just to give you inspiration."

"Send inspiration?" What Tony said to Loki could be said to be completely confusing, and he had no idea what Loki wanted to do.

Loki smiled slightly and asked the confused Tony: "You should know who the inventor of Ark reactor technology is, right?"

"I definitely know that this is a technology developed by my father, but it was only after I successfully miniaturized it that this technology became truly practical." Tony answered directly without thinking.

"Actually, you're only half right." Loki was not entirely sure of Tony's answer.

"What do you mean, I'm only half right? Do you know the truth about our family better than me?" Tony curled his lips and said in disbelief.

"Ark reactor technology does not have practical value because you successfully miniaturized it. It's just that at the time when your father invented it, the technical conditions to miniaturize it were not available."

"Not only that, even the Ark reactor technology you currently have is actually only a semi-finished product."

"The new elements that can truly perfectly adapt to this technology have actually been created by Howard a long time ago. But for the same reason, Howard was unable to create it due to the limitations of the technology of his time."

"But he has actually left you clues about everything about the new elements. Howard believes that in the future, with your ability, you will be able to accomplish things that he was not able to accomplish at the time.

"How come I don't know these things?" Tony felt a little defensive.

In Tony's impression, he had never received any praise from Howard since he was a child. No matter what he did, Howard was always dissatisfied with him.

Under such circumstances, how could Howard entrust him with things that he had not completed?

Tony couldn't believe that what Loki said was true, or Tony's reason told him that it was true, but because of Tony's feelings about Howard's existence, he instinctively refused to believe the truth of the matter.

"If you don't believe it, just take a closer look at the future city planning model that Howard left at Stark Industrial headquarters, and you will know whether what I say is true or false."

"I think people from S.H.I.E.L.D have also contacted you, right? You may not know that your father, Howard, is actually one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"He also left something in S.H.I.E.L.D, which is specially left for you. You can contact S.H.I.E.L.D and have someone send the thing over. There is something in there that Howard wants to tell you, but is too embarrassed to face it in person. What I said to you."

"Okay, that's all I have to say. I believe that with your IQ and this information, the subsequent problems should be easily solved."

"I have something to do here. I'm going to New Mexico, so I'll take a step first. I hope you can become more mature next time I see you."

"Sigh~ Speaking of this, I really don't know what's going on with your father and my father. How come they are so incompetent at educating children? You and my brother are in exactly the same situation. How old are you? Like a child."

Loki as he opened a portal in front of Tony. He stepped into the portal in one step, and then disappeared into the living room of the temple.

"Tony, who saw this scene happening with his own eyes, was even more shocked than when he found out that Howard had already created the new elements of the Ark reactor.

"J.A.R.V.I.S, you saw it too, right? It's not going to be another deception this time, right?"

"Sir, you read that right. Mr. Loki did open a space channel in front of you just now, and then left here."

"J.A.R.V.I.S... I thought he was joking before, but now I seem to start to believe that he is actually a god."

"But sir, you said you are an authentic materialist."

"J.A.R.V.I.S, has anyone ever told you that you are very incapable of observing what is happening?" Tony said through gritted teeth.

"Not yet, sir. If I hear it later, I will give you feedback. After all, my shortcomings mean that your design still has flaws, sir.

"It seems that I have to fix the loopholes in your program, J.A.R.V.I.S. But before that, contact Agent Phil Coulson for me. I need to talk to their director about the things my father left me. ."
