Stunned for a moment, Tony frowned. "You want it? What for? "
Luke gestured at the jet on his back. "Do you think I'm using such a low-power gadget because it's environmentally friendly and energy-saving?"
Tony was still frowning. "You have the technology?"
Luke asked, "What do you think?"
"Where did you get the technology?" Tony subconsciously asked.
Luke crossed his arms. "Is this what you get for saving you? Mr. Stark, you're really a "generous" person. "
Tony came back to himself, a little embarrassed.
This was a habit he had developed over the years, and it had happened again.
When it came to technology, he couldn't help but go into problematic mode, especially when it came to the palladium reactor. He didn't think anyone else in the world could do it.
Seeing that the tycoon had shut up, Luke continued, "If we have a deal, I'll go get it from you when I have the time. If you don't want to, then forget it. "
Tony was stunned. "Huh?"
Luke said, "Palladium isn't a bad solution, but it's not the only one. Since I ran into you today, I might as well ask. "
Looking at the tycoon's expression, Luke said mockingly, "Don't worry. Even if you refuse, I won't kill you. I'm not you, and you're not one of those women. "
Tony looked awkward for a moment, but he quickly composed himself.
As the CEO of an arms corporation, how could he survive in society if he didn't care about his face?
"Yes or no?" Luke said, "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have bothered to come all the way to America."
Tony pondered for a moment, clearly considering Luke's offer.
A few minutes later, he nodded slowly. "I can get you some palladium, but the amount …"
Luke nodded even more straightforwardly. "It's not like I'm going to use it to make a bomb. Just two pounds will do."
Tony was stumped by Luke's offer again.
He was a businessman after all.
Although he didn't like to bargain with other people, as that was the job of other people in the company, it was common for other people to come and bargain with him.
He really wasn't used to someone who didn't beat around the bush.
Luke didn't care. He was just making a casual remark.
After a while, when he had money, he would naturally collect palladium from other sources, so he wouldn't have to look for Tony anymore.
Although Tony looked like an obedient boy now, he was very shrewd.
Right now, his life was in Luke's hands. Although Luke didn't mean it that way, as one of the most successful arms dealers in the world, how could the tycoon trust someone so easily?
Saving someone's life was not important to many big shots.
At most, they would be grateful for a moment after being rescued. Once they were safe, these big shots would habitually weigh the gains and losses.
If there were benefits, they would betray their savior. This was not uncommon.
For example, when Luke had saved Tony earlier, the tycoon hadn't thanked him. At the very least, the tycoon hadn't passed the system's judgment of gratitude.
Luke wasn't surprised.
Only an idiot would think that Tony, who had been an arms dealer for more than a decade, would be so open to anyone as if they were brothers.
Without enough time and experience of going through thick and thin together, he wouldn't trust anyone.
Luke knew that very well, because he was the same kind of person.
Tony's expression fluctuated for a long time before he finally nodded. "Deal."
Two pounds of palladium was far from critical mass and could only be used as fuel, which was in line with what Luke had said earlier.
Also, even if Luke asked for more palladium, he would agree first.
If Luke dared to ask for it, he would agree.
Whether or not he would give it, or how much, could be considered after he escaped.
After everything he had experienced recently, Tony had learned one thing: when you were under someone else's roof, you had to lower your head.
When necessary, it wasn't shameful to feign civility with the enemy.
Luke chuckled inwardly when he received Tony's promise.
With the system around, he couldn't casually take someone else's things for himself.
There wasn't anything illegal like palladium that he could snatch away.
Two pounds of palladium was valuable, but it was nothing compared to Tony's life.
Luke didn't force Tony to complete the deal. It was another matter for him to overthink things.
If the tycoon wanted to go back on his word in the future, Luke could just take two pounds of palladium from Tony.
As part of the deal, the system naturally wouldn't deduct his credit points.
Essentially, this deal was the same as Weyland's, except that Tony wasn't paying with money.
Satisfied with the deal, Luke didn't waste any more words with the tycoon. He turned around and left. "I'll be going now. Be careful."
Tony was stumped. "You …"
Luke said, "I don't want to be caught by your soldiers. Hehe, they don't have a good reputation. "
Lost for words, Tony could only watch the white figure disappear into the cave.
For a moment, he couldn't help but wonder why this Mr. White Wolf looked like he couldn't wait to leave. Is it because he's jealous that I'm too handsome?
Just as he thought that, he smelled the "strong" "masculine scent" on himself, and came back to himself. Could it be that he couldn't resist my "charm" anymore?
Ignoring the self-doubting tycoon, Luke jogged out of the valley.
He wasn't worried about Tony's safety.
He had personally confirmed the deaths of all the criminals in the valley, and there was no one within dozens of kilometers of the valley.
The person Tony had contacted on the radio just now was Happy.
Clearly, Tony was very suspicious of the American military, and didn't want the military to learn that he had been rescued.
Happy is his loyal confidant, and in some emergencies, he has special authority to mobilize Tony's Private Army to carry out actions.
Tony was an arms dealer, and his background had never been clean. It was just that he rarely did these things himself.
Naturally, it was necessary to mobilize these private troops now.
Luke didn't really leave.
After he left the valley, he returned to the small cave and waited while he watched the surveillance feed from the drone.
It was a little bitter, but he was happy to read the system notification.

The Ten Rings gang had done a lot of evil, and their average experience and credit points were 50.
Only the leaders of a regular gang would have that many experience and credit points, but there were more than two hundred of them here.
The elite monsters were waiting for him to kill them. It was rare for Luke to encounter such a good thing. How could he not be satisfied?
But there was another notification that gave Luke a headache.
