Superman

"Power armor?"

Howard frowned slightly, a little confused.

At this time, science fiction master Robert Heinlein's "Starship Paratrooper" has not yet been published, and power armor belongs to a relatively unfamiliar concept.

The best-selling science fiction war novel, which won the Hugo Award, was later adapted into the classic movie "Star Wars". The soldiers in it were all wearing military equipment similar to power exoskeleton.

Many games and film and television works in later generations have followed this concept and carried it forward.

"Similar to my Superman suit."

Luke explained.

He has always been interested in making Howard Stark into Iron Man.

Why have to wait until decades later, let Tony face the news reporter and say the classic line of "I am Iron Man".

In terms of brains, Howard is no worse than his son.

Anyway, the timeline has been messed up, and even Gu has a headache when he looks at it.

You don't need to worry about the original plot anymore, the advantage of foresight is not important to Luke.

He had already completed the primitive accumulation and entered the developmental stage of explosive growth.

"Superman suit? I have always been curious about how the Hydra gang came up with that thing! It requires nano-molecular technology that is impossible to achieve at this stage."

In Howard's eyes, there was an incomprehensible look.

"Before major innovations in microscope manufacturing technology, we could say that we knew very little about the world of atoms and molecules. And your body... your cool suit is a mature application of nanotechnology-to be honest. Don’t believe me, Hydra scientists have mastered the cutting-edge technology for controlling individual atoms and molecules and exploring the microscopic world."

Luke raised his eyebrows, trying to fool a clever genius is really not easy.

Their heads are always filled with all kinds of strange questions, and they can easily find those unreasonable places.

"It does not matter."

Luke cleared his throat and walked through the aisle: "There are many unknown things in the world, just like the Rubik's Cube. To you, is it a product of this era?"

Howard was speechless, after a moment of contemplation, he seemed to feel reasonable, and put away his skeptical eyes.

"Then you mean, let me make a similar suit and use the reactor as the core energy source?"

As the father of Iron Man, Howard quickly understood Luke's ideas and began to consider feasibility.

"Let me think about it, your suit has a high technical content. It has soft and tough ductility and strong applicability. Nano-molecular technology allows the surface to be freely combined and changed."

"You have resisted the tank's main gun, but in the end it was unscathed and the suit was not damaged at all. This proves that it has the function of absorbing high heat and energy. If you consider it further, it may be able to prevent radiation."

"If I were to design it, I would definitely arrange atoms and molecules in a certain way to create something similar to artificial muscle fibers, and then programmatically code it, which can develop multiple uses."

"For example, the surface is hardened, like an upgraded version of the body armor, which can withstand machine guns and artillery."

"It also absorbs the refracted light around it to complete the double "invisibility" of the naked eye and the instrument."

Speaking of technical research and specific applications, Howard, as an arms dealer, naturally has a big brain.

"By the way, I remember the group of generals in the Pentagon. I wanted you to hand over your uniforms and study similar technologies. Why didn't you hear any more?"

He paused and looked at Luke who was listening.

To be honest, Howard is also very interested in the Superman suit.

Just considering that Luke might not agree, plus studying other people's underwear, it felt strange, so he gave up this idea.

"Well, that's right."

Luke nodded.

"Col. Phillips tested my reaction, saying that the Pentagon and the White House are going to have an inquiry meeting."

"Later, the Namor of Atlantis appeared and broke the two aircraft carriers of the Atlantic Fleet. After I pushed them back, no one ever mentioned it."

"Actually, I'm a very good person, and I don't mind cooperating with the Pentagon and the White House in the last questioning meeting."

Howard rolled his eyes, automatically ignored this unreliable answer, and returned to the restaurant on the first floor in his nightgown.

Jarvis, the housekeeper, is not here today. He is generally only responsible for the management of the New York mansion, and occasionally comes here.

It is said that the capable butler who was in his thirties and had the breath of a British gentleman.

He once served in the British Air Force and won the championship boxer for three consecutive years after retiring.

At the same time of extraordinary skill, he is also very capable of doing things.

He is both a close friend of Howard and a reliable helper.

Thinking of the housekeeper Alfred in the next studio, he once had an amazing record of beating Superman.

Every time Luke greeted Jarvis, he was more polite.

After all, the world view of superheroes.

To be a good housekeeper, there must be some hidden tricks.

"Your proposal is very interesting, but it is a bit cumbersome to actually operate."

Howard was eating a sandwich, his cheeks bulging, and said: "The energy system problem, let's put it aside for now."

"The first thing we have to face is the material. Ordinary alloy steel is obviously not enough. For the protection of your body, as well as the defense against heavy weapons, and the shock absorption... These all need to be considered."

"Secondly, I don't have inhuman power like you. To increase the power of powered armor, you need to carry various weapons, such as machine guns, micro missiles, and thrusters."

"I just thought about it. If you want to make a real thing, it should be a small giant three to four meters high. It may be cumbersome to operate and can only be used as a mobile fortress that attracts firepower."

"It doesn't feel very useful-I would prefer him to be close to a normal person's form. It is best to attract the eye. It is a trivial matter whether it is strong or not, and it matters whether it is handsome or not!"

Howard swallowed the last bite of the sandwich and took a sip of hot milk.

He was really moved by Luke's advice.

Just as a truth-seeking and pragmatic scientist, Howard thought carefully and found that the feasibility was not high.

On the one hand, there are limitations of the times, on the other hand, it involves many technical difficulties.

Unless you put in a lot of energy and time, you can't get any results.

"There will be bread, and there will be milk. Technical problems will be solved by Atlantis. As for...materials, I can give you a surprise gift package at that time."

Luke has a mysterious face, inexplicably a bit like an old man with a white beard who puts gifts in his stockings at Christmas.

"But that's all afterwards, now get me out of the shower, take care of your moustache and messy hair, and then rush to Washington, DC. Today is my honor ceremony."

Hearing Luke giving orders, Howard subconsciously sniffed the pajamas on his body, and noticed that there was a bad smell of food, so he obeyed the instructions rather well.

"Tsk tusk, the youngest lieutenant general in the history of the United States, really enviable!"

Before leaving, he took a bite of the lemon slices in the fruit plate and said sourly.

...

...

The White House, South Lawn.

Not long ago, the President added a balcony to the South Colonnade and by the way conducted a thorough inspection of the country's highest-level official residence.

It turned out that the problem was too serious and there were many hidden safety risks, so I decided to launch a large-scale rectification.

Now, the president's family has moved to Blair across Pennsylvania Avenue.

Today is the honoring ceremony of Major General Cavill, and the press conference is scheduled here.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to see the President and cabinet members gather at the White House.

"Little Cavill... Oh no, you should be called Lieutenant General."

The President, who had not yet come to the stage to give a speech, was facing the reporter and held Luke's right hand affectionately.

Judging from his appearance, it seems that he has not given up the idea of ​​introducing his daughter to the other party.

"I just fulfilled my responsibility and implemented the idea of ​​maintaining world peace. This is nothing."

Luke, as always, said beautiful things that he didn't believe in.

He met Mr. President's daughter, even though the other party was very enthusiastic and proactive.

However, Luke's interest is lacking and can't be impulsive.

In the last meeting, he just smiled politely and maintained a basic demeanor to show his attitude.

"Mr. Lieutenant General, it is time to consider the issue of starting a family."

The president was still reluctant to give up, saying positively: "I talked to your uncle, Frank, and he hopes to see you get married and have children, and lead a happy and peaceful life."

Luke curled his lips and played the emotional card?

He didn't want to step into the grave of love so early, it would only stumble his own footsteps.

How can the grand goal of the stars and the sea be delayed by the love of children!

"With all due respect, your Excellency, I am actually not as good as the newspapers and news."

Luke showed a serious expression and continued: "If you know something, you should know my private life..."

"That's not a problem!"

The president made a very big appearance, saying that he was a past person and he knew everything.

"It's normal to like pretty girls with hot bodies. Look at Little Kennedy, playing so presumptuously, but it doesn't prevent him from becoming a promising young man."

"I have heard of Mr. Lieutenant General's private life. Except for the Sicilian woman, and Ms. Carter from S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"You see, there are only two. This is not related to romanticism. It can be said to be self-cleaning and abide by the rules. It is a role model among young people."

Luke opened his mouth slightly, and some did not react.

Is the atmosphere of high society open to this extent?

Having two lovers is not worthy of being called a "wandering son"?

He is about to be promoted to lieutenant general, inexplicably feel despised.

"It's not easy for a young man in a high position like you to hold onto his heart and restrain his desires."

Mr. President let go, tidy up his suit, and prepare to speak on stage.

"After the award ceremony, I have a family dinner, Mr. Lieutenant General must come over. After the last meeting, my daughter Mary admires you very much and says your name every day."

Luke was shocked again, how could there be such a father who forcibly promoted his daughter.

I feel that if he can do it, the president would like to force him to obey.

Luke has a sense of crisis, his brain is running fast, thinking about solutions.

and many more!

He looked at Howard who was sitting behind, and a thought came to his mind.

It's time for this self-proclaimed playboy to perform real skills.
