Although the technical level of these things is quite low and the materials are relatively poor, if they are modified, they may have unexpected performance.
He suddenly frowned...
It’s just that the name isn’t very nice, and the appearance is… a bit forced, lacking that crackling flavor.
Lai Mu paced around the armor for a few steps, turned around, and came up with some good ideas.
"Great Sage, remember what I said."
'Yes, I understand.'
He pointed at a group of eight from the original air force, "These ones, renamed 'Super1', and the appearance is changed to look like a big red-eyed fly. The machine guns are removed, and the hand armor and flight speed are specialized, and they are changed to high-altitude close combat models."
"Rename these marines to 'Tiga'. They should be painted red and blue, with a red light on their chests, and the spikes on their heads should be there... Oh, and replace the red light with a small nuclear bomb, and add a row of high-energy lasers on their forearms."
"This group was originally from the Army, and was renamed 'Iron Pilots'. The coating is jungle camouflage, and a hook is added..."
"The weapons used are MP5 and melee blades. As a special operations model, it can perform some jungle missions."
You can't fly in the forest. If you go too fast, you may hit trees easily. Sometimes it might be more useful to swing around with the hook, and there won't be any blinding light to expose your whereabouts.
As for why the army can fly, we don’t understand what Ivan Vanko is thinking.
He turned his gaze towards the last group, which consisted of marines carrying honeycomb missile troughs on their shoulders.
He tapped his chin with his index finger as he fell into deep thought. From a distance, he looked quite cute.
Missile... stupid and rough... got it!
"Let's change this group to One-Eyed Little Treasure!"
"With the extended arms and load-bearing capacity, it can be used for engineering rescue missions. With missiles built into the body, it can provide long-range support. As for the flight capability... it is reserved."
"In terms of appearance, it uses a brown coating, a single eye, and a high-power laser transmitter inside; the shoulder is printed with a metal 3D-printed branch structure, which should have a moldy... no, sprouting feeling, symbolizing the rescue of life."
It becomes very cool after changing it like this, doesn’t it?

At the same time, at the headquarters of Stark Industries, a press conference was held.
Pepper sat elegantly in the chair, holding a manuscript in his hand, smiling and looking generous and decent.
She remained calm in the face of a large number of media reporters, and her demeanor as a president was apparent.
This press conference was mainly to answer questions about the military's banditry and the Hammer Group's terrorist actions.
"…Yes, all Mark Armor is the property of Stark Industries. The military took our things."
"If they cause any accidents with the Mark Armor, Stark Industries will not bear any responsibility. Moreover, if they gain any benefits from using the Mark Armor, it must belong to the interests of Stark Industries..."
Pepper tapped the tabletop briskly with one hand, making no sound and unseen by the audience.
"We absolutely do not condone their gangster-like behavior, and our legal team is actively seeking justice and compensation for this..."
Although the Mark II was handed over to the military after removing some of its technology as agreed, Stark Industries, with the cooperation of Colonel Roddy, still claimed that it was forcibly taken away by the military. This was to seek public support so as to gain greater benefits in subsequent dealings with the military.
"As for... the terrorist attack by the Hammer Group, we strongly condemn it... Yes, it was Iron Man, Sky Knight and Colonel Roddy who saved the United States. As a member of the United States, I personally express my heartfelt gratitude to them..."
In fact, Pepper was the last one to know about Hammer.
When she entered the villa yesterday, she was wondering why there was a big hole at the gate... When she learned the truth in the morning, she was shocked and blamed Stark for a long time.
"They rescued a terrorist from a prison in Monaco, causing a fire in the prison and murdering a replacement... After sneaking into the United States, they also planned terrorist attacks across the United States..."
"They copied the Mark series armor for this purpose. Please rest assured that all the copies have been destroyed. Their copy was clumsy and failed..."
Ivan Vanko only wanted revenge on Stark, but the public didn't know that.
Lai Mu also consciously guided public opinion, making the public believe that it was terrorists who planned to attack the United States, but were once again thwarted by Iron Man.
Don’t miss the free fame.
"as well as……"
Pepper flipped through the manuscript. "Also, Stark Industries will acquire the factories and equipment left behind by the Hammer Group in the spirit of humanitarianism. Please do not panic, the operation of the factories and the payment of wages will not be affected..."

Chapter 75. Thor, the Hulk, and S.H.I.E.L.D. Consultants
Nick Fury visits Stark Villa for the third time.
The next afternoon after Ivan's death, he took Natasha and sat in the living room of the Stark family.
The one-eyed man in the windbreaker made himself a cup of tea and leaned against the sofa, with his feet on the table without even taking off his shoes.
"So, you're just going to embezzle the batch of machines produced by Hammer?"
He squinted his eyes and looked at Lai Mu who was sitting across from him. "No matter from the perspective of law or property ownership, these things should not belong to you, an alien."
Lai Mu looked around. Stark was sitting on the left, playing with his phone; Agent Beauty was sitting on the other side of the same sofa as Fury, away from her boss, just smiling at people.
Lai Mu leaned back on the sofa, thinking for a few seconds, and trying to find the feeling, "Are you discriminating against me?"
"Are you discriminating against an alien?"
There was heavy sorrow and tears of accusation in his eyes.
“In this land where different races and countless ethnicities blend together, all can live in harmony and friendship, like brothers and sisters… I thought I was the same as you.”
"I thought I had the same obligations and rights as the locals. I thought I was one of you... I worked so hard to save America from the clutches of Hammer and Vanke."
"Are you just going to deny my efforts?"
His voice was choked with sobs and hoarseness, which made those who heard it sad and listened to it cry.
"You know what? I have a dream."
"I dream that one day on the golden beaches of California, aliens from beyond the sky will be able to sit down together with humans born here on this land and speak of brotherhood."
"I have a dream that one day even S.H.I.E.L.D., a place of darkness and injustice, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice."
“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by their race or nationality but by the content of their character.”
Stark rolled his eyes and rarely looked away from his phone - wake up, you don't have any children!
Natasha covered her mouth and laughed, with a little more affection in her eyes. This child is quite interesting.
Fury coughed uncomfortably, and almost choked to death on the tea leaves. He gritted his teeth, with a dark smile on his face, "...speak human language."
Lai Mu nodded, "Okay, I'll stand on my side and say a few fair words."
"First of all, you shouldn't push a minor too hard. It's not gentlemanly."
"Secondly, the spoils belong to the victor. This has been a human custom since ancient times."
"at last……"
He looked at the other person with a smile, as if to say that the weather was nice today.
"What if I don't give it to you?"
Fury gritted his teeth uncomfortably. It was just a matter of course. Why was this guy so angry today?
He looked in the direction Lai Mu was looking and found his feet on the table... Can't I just put them down?
"Okay, everyone here knows the truth. I'm not here to argue with you today. Since you said you are one of us, then there is a proposal about protecting the earth. Are you interested?"
"Big Boys League?"
"It's the Avengers."
Fury motioned for Natasha to open the laptop she had brought and turn the screen towards Stark and Lemu.
"There are many uncontrollable threats in the world. There are countless aliens like you, some good and some bad."
"There are also many crazy genius scientists, ambitious billionaires, and genetically mutated monsters."
The information of Ivan Vanko and Justin Hammer appeared on the computer screen. Needless to say, everyone at the scene knew them.
Then Fury pressed enter, the screen jumped, and a video played.
The video is silent.
Shaky footage showed a giant green monster fighting an army at what appeared to be a school.
The monster could easily jump dozens of meters, withstand hail of bullets without any damage, and was extremely powerful. It could dismantle an armored vehicle as easily as a child unwrapping a chocolate package.
Stark frowned, looking at this damn thing solemnly… It didn’t even require parameters and calculations, one glance told you that if you face this guy, even wearing Mark III armor, it’s no more than a dragonfly against a human.
Maybe they could escape, but once caught they would be easily crushed to death without any ability to resist.
Lai Mu took a look and remained calm. He knew the Hulk, but he didn't notice that it happened at this time.
Stark asked Nick Fury, "Is this the genetically mutated monster you were talking about?"
Fury said nothing, pressed enter again, and skipped to the next video.
The video shows four medieval weirdos in strange costumes, holding swords and shields, fighting against a strange armor in a modern town.
The armor sprayed out golden-red lasers from its face indiscriminately, destroying houses and cracking the ground wherever it went.
Then a big fool with long flowing hair turned into a medieval god of war. He flew to the sky with a red cloak and a hammer, summoned storms and lightning, and quickly extinguished the fire in the armor.
Finally, the big guy and his four men summoned a huge beam of light and disappeared into thin air.
Stark's face became even more serious. If these things were true, then the problem would be serious, very, very serious.
"Jarvis, check the authenticity of the video..."
Fury smiled and said, "These are all real things that happened in the past two days. You can check them out at will."
He looked at Lemu again, with a meaningful look, "You may know this last person. Coulson found him in New Mexico... He claims to be from Asgard."
Lai Mu was a little puzzled. He smiled politely and nodded, "Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes."
If you don't understand, just start playing, it's not a big problem.
"Now, for the safety of mankind and the Earth, I formally invite you to join the Avengers. What do you think?"
Nick Fury stood up and looked at the two people in front of him with a solemn and dignified expression.
