In the next two days, everything seemed calm, there were no explosions, no terrorist threats, as if nothing had happened, but both Chen Mo and Tony Stark knew that this was just the calm before the storm!
Aldridge?? Killian's manor base has been exposed. Although he decisively evacuated all personnel and equipment in advance, it does not mean that he will give up his original plan and ambition. In order to avoid the plan being destroyed, he will definitely accelerate the implementation of the plan!
Chen Mo's prediction was not wrong, although Aldridge?? Killian hid on a yacht in the Atlantic Ocean and did not move, but his men had already arrived in Los Angeles and were lurking in the dark!
Originally, Aldridge?? Killian's most powerful man was Eric Savin. Killian had also ordered him to attack Pepper before, but Chen Mo's unexpected appearance not only destroyed their carefully prepared explosive attack, but also caused Eric Savin to die tragically on the spot.
So this time, after leading most of the people to hide at sea, Aldridge?? Killian instead sent another powerful man, Ellen Bright, a former female agent of the National Security Agency, to capture Pepper!
And due to the appearance of Chen Mo, Aldridge?? Killian also sent two more "Ultimate Lifeforms" who had also been modified by Extremis to assist.
The exposure of the Miami Manor base has proved that Tony Stark has a strong network intrusion ability. They themselves have the ability to hack into national broadcast television networks and public monitoring systems, so naturally, they will be on guard against being discovered by Tony Stark.
So after arriving in Los Angeles, Alan Britt and his two companions have been moving in the dark, and all their actions will avoid the cameras. With their strong physical fitness after Extremis enhancement, it is not difficult to avoid the cameras if they are intentional.
Without anyone in the villa noticing, Ellen Bright had completely grasped Pepper's whereabouts!
Originally, Ellen Bright actually considered directly taking people to attack Tony Stark's villa and packing Tony Stark, his Iron Man Armor, and Pepper, who the boss cares about very much, together with them.
They have three Extremis Creatures that have been strengthened by Extremis. Even if Tony Stark puts on his Iron Man Armor, he is definitely no match for them!
However, when she saw Chen Mo's figure appear in the villa through the binoculars in the distance and never left, Ellen Bredt immediately gave up on this idea!
Although there were three of them, it was still too risky to attack the villa directly when Chen Mo was present. After learning from Eric Savin's mistake, Allen Britt was naturally more careful. After all, the commander's reputation was too great!
Therefore, after a period of secret investigation and confirming that Chen Mo wouldn't be leaving anytime soon, Alan Britt decided to follow the original plan and capture Pepper!
That morning, after breakfast, Pepper left the seaside villa in Malibu in a car under Happy's escort as usual and headed for Stark Industries.
Sitting in the back seat, Pepper recalled the "battle" with Tonny last night, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up into a happy smile.
Since the incident in New York, the in-depth communication between the two of them has decreased a lot, and even if there is, it is usually cursory. Since Chen Mo's return, Tonny's anxiety has improved, and he has completely changed at night. Not only has he regained his previous vitality, but he has even become a bit more energetic, as if he wants to make up for all the things he owes her for the past six months!
Although the next two days were not as sleepless as the first night, they still fought until late at night. Although Pepper could bear it, it was inevitable that she would feel sleepy in the morning, so she almost slept all the way to the company these days.
Today was no exception. Not long after they set off, Pepper, who was sitting in the back seat, fell asleep with a satisfied smile.
Happy glanced at Pepper, who was asleep in the back seat through the rearview mirror, and shook his head as if he was used to it, and focused on driving.
Tony Stark's seaside villa is not too far from Stark Industries, and it won't take long to reach it if they go all the way south along the seaside road.
But today was destined not to go so smoothly!
Just after the car turned a corner, Happy suddenly found that not far ahead, an uncle had fallen in the middle of the road, completely cutting off the road!
And the strange thing was that the lower half of the trunk of the tree was still burning with flames, as if it had been struck by lightning and fell down.
But Happy knew that something was wrong after thinking about it for a moment. It was a sunny day today, and there was no thunder at all!
But there was no time for Happy to continue thinking. This seaside road was a cliff on one side and a mountain wall on the other. At this moment, the entire road was blocked by this big tree, and the car couldn't pass at all. If they hit it directly, the car would be destroyed and they would die!
Happy could only immediately step on the brakes and slow down with all his might.
Fortunately, Happy reacted quickly, and the car finally stopped before hitting the tree trunk. Pepper, who was dozing off in the back seat, was also shaken awake by the sudden jerk of the brakes. She quickly supported herself with both hands on the back of the seat in front of her, not slapping her face directly on it.
"What's going on?"
When the car came to a complete stop, Pepper quickly looked up and asked Happy in confusion.
"The road is blocked. Something's not right!"
As soon as Happy's voice fell, before the two could react, the roof of the car above their heads suddenly shook, and then a large part of it sank in, as if something had hit it!
Happy's expression changed immediately, and he shouted, "Sit tight!" Then, he quickly put the car in gear, stepped on the accelerator, and suddenly reversed the car. At the same time, he quickly turned the steering wheel, and with a shrill sound of tires rubbing against each other, he turned the car around!
With such a violent reverse, if something else fell on the roof of the car, it would have been thrown off long ago. But until the car completely turned around, Happy did not find anything falling down, which made his heart sink!
Just as Happy quickly changed gears and was about to step on the accelerator to rush back, he suddenly found that on the road ahead, two people had appeared at some point, blocking his way, one on the left and one on the right!
If it were any other time, Happy would hesitate, but now it was obvious that someone was deliberately ambushing him. Happy gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator without hesitation. The engine roared violently, pushing the car forward!
What shocked Happy was that as the car accelerated, the two people in front of him didn't have any intention of dodging. On the contrary, as he accelerated, the two of them also started abruptly and rushed up to the car!
