CHAPTER 501 DANGER (1/2)

“Did he find Killian?” Tony murmured while staring at the vibrating tablet, and then he connected to the video call.
Call!
Swiping his finger at the tablet, Rogers’ face in the center of the screen quickly expanded to the entire screen. Then, as soon as the call connected, the image of Rogers appeared on the tablet. Peter, who was standing next to Tony, stepped aside after seeing Rogers’ call, making sure that he would not be seen by Rogers.
“Steve, is there news on Killian?” Tony asked faintly when Rogers’s face appeared.
“Well, the Insight System has found Killian.” Upon hearing Tony’s words, Rogers on the opposite side of the video replied seriously.
“It seems that the Insight System is still very valuable. Where is he?” Tony asked.
“He is in New York. Moreover, he seems to be staying in one of the Stark Industries properties and he seems to be going towards another. Are you still in your villa?” Speaking no-nonsense, Rogers replied directly.
However, when he heard that Killian was in New York, Tony’s calm expression suddenly became serious, especially when he heard Rogers say that Killian was going towards Stark Industries’ property, which made Tony even more nervous.
“Where is he now?! And, how do you know he is going to take action against Stark Industries?” With a very bad feeling in his heart, Tony asked quickly.
“Killian is now rus.h.i.+ng to the industrial park outside Brooklyn. Is there something like your secret research inst.i.tute there?” Rogers quickly replied when Tony’s face suddenly became serious.
“Industrial park outside Brooklyn?! d.a.m.n! JARVIS, connect me to Pepper!” Hearing Rogers’ answer, Tony’s originally serious face was instantly filled with worry, and he hurriedly shouted to JARVIS.
“Tony, what happened? Is there really something?” Rogers asked curiously when he saw the instant change in Tony’s expression through the camera. However, even if there is something important there, why would Tony contact Pepper, did he require her to deal with it?
“There is indeed a very important place there and they are the most important people. I arranged for Pepper to stay in that place, and there is a safe house!” While connecting JARVIS to Pepper, Tony quickly turned towards Rogers and explained.
Ever since he knew that Killian wanted to deal with him, Tony had hidden Pepper in the safe house for her protection.
The safe house is in New York, in an industrial park on the Stark site unknown to the outside world. After many years of secret transformation by the Stark Industries, it is already a high-secret test and research site, and its defense is strong.
And Tony also sent an Iron Man team over there, with twenty Iron Man guards by Pepper’s side. But Tony, who has seen the explosive power of those Extremis fighters, can’t guarantee that those Iron Mans would be able to block Killian, especially the kind of network intrusion that can break through JARVIS’S defense.
“What?! Where is Pepper?!” Hearing Tony’s words, Rogers on the opposite side of the video didn’t respond, and Peter, who was hiding behind Tony, jumped up.
After yelling out loud, Peter covered his mouth and closed it, but the look in his eyes clearly conveyed that he was worried about Pepper.
“Sir, the connection with Ms. Pepper was cut off. Judging by the method of cutting off the network, it should be the same as the previous intrusion into my system.” Just when Tony was feeling worried, JARVIS reported another very bad news.
Bang!
“d.a.m.n it! Send out all the Iron Man you can use right away and kill that Killian and his men! If Killian dares to hurt Pepper, I swear, I will tear him apart!” Hearing JARVIS’s report, Tony put his hand on the tablet and he slapped the console with his other hand while commanding loudly.
“Yes, sir.” JARVIS quickly replied after receiving the order. The other party did not invade the core system of JARVIS this time, but they blocked the area where Pepper was located, and also simulated similar signals so that JARVIS wouldn’t notice that the signal was cut off before this.
