During the test flight of the Mark 2, Chen Mo sternly stopped it when it reached an altitude of 150000 feet.
Although the Mark 2 didn't freeze at that altitude, which exceeded the flight limit of an airplane, it didn't mean that Obadiah's Iron Monger would be fine with Enron.
After all, the Mark 2 had been improved and strengthened many times under Chen Mo's guidance, and the gap between it and the Mark 1 was immeasurable.
Obadiah had used the Mark 1 as a blueprint and hastily built the Iron Monger in such a short time. Apart from its huge size, strength, and defense, it couldn't compare to the Mark 2 in all other aspects, especially in some areas that Tonny himself hadn't noticed, such as the problem of high altitude ice.
Taking advantage of his speed, Tonny deliberately kept a distance from Obadiah and led him into the sky.
Although the Iron Monger's thrusters were huge and the flames it ejected were far thicker and more spectacular than those of Tonny's Mark 2, due to the huge gap in technology, its propulsion was actually far inferior to the smaller energy engine equipped with the Mark 2.
Coupled with the Iron Monger's heavy weight, its flight speed wasn't actually fast. Tonny suppressed his speed and always kept a distance that was almost within reach. Obadiah, who wanted to kill Tonny with red eyes, followed him into the sky regardless.
Although he suppressed his speed, the two of them quickly reached the altitude of tens of thousands of feet.
Seeing that he was about to catch up with Tonny, Obadiah mocked excitedly.
"Tonny, your design is great. Unfortunately, my battle suit is more advanced!"
Indeed, judging from the performance of the two of them, Tonny's Mark 2 had been suppressed in all aspects. The Mark 2's strength wasn't as large as the Iron Monger's, and it was equipped with few weapons and no heavy weapons. It wasn't a threat to the heavily armored Iron Monger at all.
However, Obadiah, who was chasing after Tonny, didn't notice that the surface of the Iron Monger's armor had begun to freeze, and as they flew higher and higher, the ice on the surface was rapidly thickening.
"Then how did you solve the problem of freezing?"
Tonny looked back at the thick layer of ice on the Iron Monger and responded.
"Is there a problem with the freezing?"
Obadiah didn't quite understand. After all, he was only a businessman and wasn't proficient in technology.
Their current altitude had not yet reached the 85000 feet altitude of the SR-71 Blackbird high-altitude high-speed strategic reconnaissance aircraft, but it had already exceeded the flight limit of ordinary aircraft.
As soon as Obadiah's voice trailed off, Iron Monger's thrusters stopped working after a series of muffled noises. The combat suit's operating system also crashed in this extremely low temperature. The entire combat suit completely lost power and fell down.
Tonny breathed a sigh of relief and stopped. He thought that this suit was perfect, but he didn't expect that many problems would be exposed in the actual combat. Thanks to Chen Mo's improvement on Mark II, he wouldn't have been able to defeat Obadiah this time. It seems that the Iron Man Armor needs to be upgraded.
Tonny looked at Iron Monger, who was falling at an accelerated speed, with a complicated mood. When he was almost out of sight, he controlled Mark 2 to fly to the ground and returned to the place where the two had just fought, Stark Industrial Park.
The fierce battle just now left him physically and mentally exhausted. What he wanted to do most at this time was to take off his armor and have a good rest.
Just as he opened his helmet and was about to take a breather, Iron Monger, which should have crashed, suddenly fell behind him. Before he could react, it firmly strangled Mark 2 with its thick and powerful right robotic arm.
The previous high-altitude low temperature did condense a thick layer of ice on the surface of Iron Monger, and the internal control system also crashed under the low temperature, but Tonny ignored Iron Monger's huge size and the thickness of the armor.
Although it was frozen at first and fell to the ground, the actual situation was not that bad.
The temperature inside the combat suit only just exceeded the lower limit of the control system's operation, but during the fall, the ambient temperature continued to rise. The high-speed falling combat suit violently rubbed against the air, producing a lot of heat. The ice on the surface fell off under the impact of the tumbling and airflow, and the internal temperature rose quickly.
Before falling to the ground, the control system finally restarted, and the thrusters recovered, allowing Iron Monger to land safely on the ground.
Then, Obadiah, who had almost fallen to his death, hid and waited for Tony Stark to land.
Just as Tonny thought he had fallen and let his guard down, Obadiah suddenly flew out of hiding and landed behind Tonny.
Before he could react, Obadiah grabbed him with his advantage of strength and fixed him in front of his chest. At the same time, he raised his left hand, which was equipped with a giant impact hammer, and hammered it heavily at Mark 2's head.
The moment Tonny found himself strangled, he quickly closed the combat suit's mask and struggled hard. Unfortunately, compared with Iron Monger, which was several times larger than him, he was still a little weak. Seeing that he could not break free, Tonny had to grit his teeth and resist.
The Heavy Impact Hammer hit Mark II's head hard, and the huge impact shook the entire battle suit. Obadiah, who was inside Iron Monger, could feel the huge vibration coming from the battle suit, and the part that was directly hit was slightly deformed.
A fierce smile appeared on Obadiah's face. Today, he was going to completely eliminate Tony Stark, the biggest obstacle to his complete control of Stark Industries.
Fortunately, Mark 2's defense was extremely strong. Tony Stark inside the combat suit only felt that his entire head was shaken and a little dizzy, but he did not suffer any substantial damage.
In the movie, Tony Stark, wearing Mark 3, was hit by a tank shell and fell directly from a high altitude, smashing a large crater on the ground. However, only the surface of the combat suit was slightly damaged. The body under the protection of the combat suit was unscathed, showing the strength of the Iron Man Armor's defensive performance.
In addition to the powerful Gold Titanium Alloy Armor, the most important part of the defense system of the entire combat suit is actually a special shock absorption and buffering system.
This technology can be said to be the most core technology of the Iron Man Armor. It is with it that the Iron Man Armor can have a super defense that surpasses heavy tanks in such a small size.
This shock absorption and buffering system, which can be regarded as black technology, is also what Chen Mo is most interested in. If it weren't for Tony Stark, the power of Hydra alone might not have been able to develop it in hundreds of years.
Only Chen Mo, who personally participated in the design and manufacturing process of Mark 2, knows what is the most valuable part of this combat suit.
Although the design of the Arc Reactor energy, the flight thrusters, and the drive system of the entire combat suit are very high-tech, it is not absolutely impossible to manufacture.
In Iron Man 2, Hammer Industries imitated armor similar to the Iron Man Armor. Although it was not mature at that time and there was a big gap between it and Tony Stark's Iron Man Armor in many aspects, it was completely completed with the help of another genius scientist, Ivan Vanke, and it had actual combat ability.
But even so, they are just steel machines that are remotely controlled. Speed, defense, flexibility, maneuverability, and other aspects are average.
Moreover, without the core shock absorption and buffering system developed by Tony Stark, if it is driven by someone inside, the huge impact caused by a powerful attack or fall will directly shock the controller to death.
The whip armor made by Ivan Vanke seems to be powerful, but in fact, it only relies on two flexible and powerful energy whips, which makes people unable to get close to it. Its own defensive ability is not strong, and it mainly relies on the surface of the steel armor for protection.
The shock absorption and buffering system invented by Tony Stark can greatly weaken the impact of the outer defensive armor, and the final impact transmitted to the body is minimal. It can be said that as long as the outer alloy armor is not broken, the people inside will not be in danger.
So Obadiah's attack did not directly shock Tony Stark to death as he wanted. However, the gold-titanium alloy used in the outer defensive armor of Mark II, although it is a super special alloy used by Seraph military satellites, is not indestructible after all. Under the attack of the heavy impact hammer, it is slightly deformed.
Obadiah was not annoyed when he saw that he could not kill Tonny in one blow.
"What a surprise! It seems that you have also upgraded the defense system! "
Obadiah could not help but admire Mark II's powerful defense.
"Tonny, you are really a genius!"
"Unfortunately, you must die today!"
Obadiah's face began to turn ferocious, allowing Tonny to struggle uselessly under the fixation of Iron Monger's thick mechanical arm. He once again raised the impact hammer of his left arm and launched a series of attacks on Mark II's head.
Despite the offset of the defensive armor and the shock absorption and buffering system, Tonny's brain was still buzzing from the continuous powerful impact, and he could only instinctively struggle uselessly.
"The damage to the head armor is 15%!"
Jarvis's voice rang in Tonny's ears, and a diagram of Mark II's full armor appeared in his shaky vision. The head had lit up with a red alarm, and a progress bar next to it showed the damage.
As Iron Monger's heavy impact hammer bombarded Mark II's head again and again, the damage to the armor became more and more serious.
"Sir, the damage to the head armor is increasing rapidly and has reached 37%. The estimated damage time is 24 seconds!"
Jarvis's warning made Tony Stark anxious, but he was powerless to resist at this time.
Just as he was racking his brains to think of a way to crack it, the damage to the head armor had reached 90%. It would be completely destroyed after a few more attacks, and then his head would be blown up together with it.
Tonny, who was still at his wit's end, could only watch the damage continue to increase. A feeling of despair quickly rose in his heart. He had already felt this kind of powerless despair twice.
The first time was in the desert of Afghanistan, lost in the vast sea of hot sand. The second time was when Obadiah subdued him with a nerve paralyzer and took away the second-generation arc reactor in his chest. Both times, it was Chen Mo who appeared in time to save him from the brink of death.
But this time, Chen Mo should still be in the seaside villa at this time and could not make it. Even if he did come, he was probably no match for Obadiah's Iron Monger. It seemed that he was really going to die this time, but Little Pepper …
