Chapter 31 Dinner
Tonight, the Visas Hotel has become the most lively place in New York.If there are no such exaggerated events such as the arrival of aliens and super criminals tearing down several streets tonight, then tonight's dinner will probably be the headlines tomorrow.

The road in front of the hotel is full of expensive luxury cars, just like a high-end car show.Celebrities from all walks of life in New York gathered here, and even some rare big figures from the upper class attended.

The one who has such a big face and hosts this dinner is the very famous Tony Stark.As a rich second generation, he escaped from a group of bandits not long ago, and immediately made a big news-announcing that the weapons company Stark Industries, which has been dedicated to weapons development for a century, will no longer produce weapons.And before the public opinion had time to digest this explosive news, even more explosive news followed - he admitted that he had developed a high-tech suit and that he had transformed himself into a generation of superhero Iron Man.

Two press bombshells made the name Tony Stark more popular than all other rich second generations for a full year, and it looks like it will last longer.And due to the emergence of Iron Man technology, Stark himself has become more and more involved in politics, which is one of the reasons why his banquet has such a great influence.

"It really lives up to its reputation, Stark." Eric stood in front of the brightly lit hotel with emotion.

He received the invitation letter this morning.Anyway, the school has been closed for the past two days, since people are so kindly invited to meet the legendary Iron Man, it's not bad (of course not just to have a meal and drink).

The theory is that he'd need a formal suit, and maybe a spruce up, before attending such a dinner.But now, he is only wearing an ordinary black windbreaker, and the leather shoes are more like street stalls in the night market. Even if he is wearing a British handmade custom suit, he can't be more conspicuous.

And a certain person has no self-knowledge at all, arrogantly showed the invitation card to the doorman, swaggered in, and went straight to the food and drink, as if he was a diner in the first place.

But it seems that there is nothing wrong with it, he was here to eat.It was the first time for him to participate in such a large banquet freely and unrestrictedly as a guest.Of course, he didn't forget that the Lord must have come to him for a purpose, but before the other party appeared, he didn't seem to have anything to do except eat.

Also, another reason not to wear a suit is that you can't wear the armor on your back with that thing.

Sure enough, after a while, they took the initiative to find them.

"Eric Charlotte?"

Eric, who was dealing with a piece of cheesecake, turned his head and finally saw the legendary Tony Stark, who was followed by two business partners, holding a half-full goblet of red wine in his hand.

"I've wanted to meet you for a long time. I wanted to visit your home, but because my schedule is too full these days, I had to invite you to the banquet for a chat." Tony said and shook his hand in the cup, "Would you like some?"

"No thanks, I'm not old enough to drink."

Tony shrugged: "Sometimes rules are meant to be broken, otherwise you won't be able to move forward and where did you get your clothes? Did you buy them online?"

"Forget it." Eric took the last bite of the cake, "but anything fits me perfectly."

Tony couldn't help laughing, and said to the people around him, "I like this kid."

He drank the red wine in one gulp, and whispered to Eric: "Go and wait for me on the balcony, I think we have a lot of topics to talk about. Five minutes, I'll go find you as soon as I get rid of these people."

Facts have proved that the rich second generation seem to have a very weak sense of time.Eric drank Mistral for 10 minutes on the balcony before Stark appeared.

"Sorry, sorry, those girls are too enthusiastic." Tony leaned against the pillar and said, "Then let's get to the point. Just to make sure, you know why I saw you, right? Did you make it yourself? ?”

Erik knew he was referring to the Almazo armor.He had expected this was what Tony wanted to ask before rushing to the dinner.

"No, my dad made it or at least it seems so."

"Oh? Then he's a genius. I found out he works for the government."

"If you wonder why he didn't mention how he is now in the resume, then maybe I can answer-he is dead."

"Ah, I'm sorry."

"If you want to ask about the origin of my armor, or want blueprints, you may be disappointed - I know almost nothing about it." Eric spread his hands, "Look, I Don't know what my dad made it for or where, and I don't know why he gave it to me. One day I was suddenly attacked by a bunch of crazy people, and then I don't know who gave me this thing, and then my Life just turned upside down. Or maybe it became what it should have been, I can't tell."

Tony listened quietly, and nodded approvingly: "I think I can understand you. My life has also changed completely not long ago, but the good part is that at least I changed voluntarily."

After a pause, he said, "Now, I think I can give you a chance."

"Opportunity? Like applying for a part-time job?"

"Kind of like," Tony said, "believe me, ability is a burden to people who can't afford it. And now, you can choose to give it to me, and then you can let it all go, like any other kid After finishing school, find a job, find a girl you like and start a family."

"So... you want my armor?"

"What? No, I'm just... well, yes," Tony admitted with some frustration, "Yeah, not too long ago I was smug that Iron Man was the best single combat system on the planet, and now It’s not anymore. I’ve analyzed several of your battles and studied the performance of that suit of armor, and they’re indeed better than mine for the time being.”

Although he puts a lot of emphasis on the word "temporarily," Eric sees that it's not easy for Stark to admit it.

He smiled slightly: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Stark. But if it is my father's intention to give me this armor, I can't."

He only had time to say so much.

Because of this moment, the two rocket warheads shot through the wall and rushed into the hall with thick tail flames.

The strong impact cut off the load-bearing column of the hall, the crystal chandelier went out in an instant, and the flames quickly occupied the hall.Eric watched with his own eyes that Stark was blown up like a leaf by the scorching wind, and then he was pulled out by irresistible force, his body was as light as a feather.
