Chapter 108
In the luxury office, Tony has had a brief and serious conversation with Lin Rui for more than ten minutes, and Tony has also talked about his plans with Mirage Knight . In general, Tony hopes to have a stable connection with Mirage Knight . On one hand, Tony can provide Mirage Knight with better equipment and advanced technology; on the other hand, Mirage Knight will help Tony build a special organization to protect civilians from the threat of evil forces . Of course, the initiative should be in Tony’s hands . He doesn’t want others to use his own things and not listen to him .

Lin Rui wasn’t surprised to hear about Tony’s plans, because Tony was already doing it, and the Iron Man is now the guardian of the American people . So far, Tony has played a good role in this image . However, it is impractical for Lin Rui to listen to Tony from now on .
“So, I’m like mercenary? You pay for the equipment and then I do something for you? Sitting in a chair, Lin Rui turned his legs upside down and said lightly . That’s his simplest understanding of Tony’s intentions . Of course, he’s much more advanced than those mercenaries . Maybe it’s a super mercenary?
“No! No! No! We are a cooperative relationship . But I’m giving you money and better equipment . Don’t I have a say in matters?” Seeing Mirage Knight pointing out his plan, Tony shook his head and explained .
Putting his legs down, Lin Rui felt it was a bit ugly to pose in Phantom Suit . But Tony doesn’t care what shape he’s concave in .
“It’s the same for me . I would appreciate it if you would provide me with funds and better equipment . As for the future, I can’t do it if I listen to you . I’m not as foolish as the little Spiderman kid . And there’s another important reason I don’t want to get too close to you right now . ” Sitting slightly straight, Lin Rui said slowly .
“What’s the reason?” Lin Rui’s answer was also expected by Tony, who was obviously not Peter . However, the ‘another’ reason that Lin Rui said is what Tony interested . Does he not like him?
“Because you and SHIELD are too close . Maybe it is not your intention, but they have been deeply involved with you and they will continue to do so . As for me, I don’t have much affection for SHIELD, I don’t want to expose myself for your reasons . ” Finally, Lin Rui is about to start pitting S . H . I . E . L . D .
“S . H . I . E . L . D . ? You know them too? How much do you know about them? Why do you say that?” Tony was a little surprised to hear the name that came out of Lin Rui’s mouth and asked several questions .

Before Coulson found Tony, Tony never knew there was such an organization . And after Nick sought Tony’s help to form an Avengers alliance, Tony also sought out the organization but got nothing . Apart from the information Nick gave Tony, he was not clear for the time being .
“S . H . I . E . L . D . , a global anti-terrorism organization hidden in the dark . Terrorist organizations here are not guys with guns for them, but organizations and guys that pose a greater threat to the World . They are also responsible for monitoring and controlling individuals who are far more powerful than ordinary people, such as you, Iron Man . ” Without elaboration, Lin Rui simply explained to Tony the existence of S . H . I . E . L . D .
“As for why I don’t like them, this is a secret . You may know it later . Anyway, I will not involve too much with SHIELD . If I am you, I will not entangle too much with them either . ” After explaining S . H . I . E . L . D . , Lin Rui also reminded Tony .
“Why? Listening to what you said, their purpose seems to be similar to mine . Moreover, such an organization should welcome people like me . ” Tony did not understand why Lin Rui doesn’t like S . H . I . E . L . D . and asked again .
“Of course, their purpose is good . However, a large organization always has internal problems, and the internal problems of S . H . I . E . L . D . are not a little bit . ”
“Internal problems? It seems that you know more about them than a little!” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Tony suddenly sighed .
Now, Tony feels it’s necessary to change his mind about the Vigilante in front of him . He thought it was just a man with some sense of responsibility and some strength . But Tony didn’t expect that he would know so many things he himself didn’t know . Tony didn’t like the feeling that it was totally out of his control .
“Maybe, so if you really want to cooperate with S . H . I . E . L . D . , we’d better keep a distance . ” Seeing Tony pondering, Lin Rui said with a smile . Lin Rui is slowly raising his status in Tony’s eyes so that his voice will become more and more important . Using the information that Tony didn’t know to pit S . H . I . E . L . D . , Lin Rui feels he’s doing a good job .

“It seems that I really need to think about it . I’m glad that you would share this news with me . ” With a nod, Tony said he was thinking about it .
“Since you have asked this, I can give you a piece of important information for free . After all, you should you already have Palladium Poisoning now?” Seeing that Tony has slowly settled in, Lin Rui intends to strike while the iron is hot .
When he heard Lin Rui suddenly mentioning his Palladium Poisoning, Tony’s eyes flashed and his feet were placed on the box next to him .
“How do you know about that?” Now, Tony finally feels a little threatened . Only Ivan, who also made the miniature Arc Reactor, and Jackson know about his Palladium Poisoning . Why does Mirage Knight know about it?
“You don’t need to know that, anyway, I won’t go around telling anyone about that . And, not only do I know you have Palladium Poisoning, but I also know how to cure it . ” Just as Tony stared nervously at Lin Rui . His next sentence made Tony even more shocked .
“Treat Palladium Poisoning?! How is it possible? As long as I still wear this piece on my chest for one day, this thing can’t be cured . ” A little calmed down, Tony went on . Even the Low-Level Holy Spring Water that was given to Tony before was only temporarily, letting his body recover . Palladium still continued to erode his body .
“Of course I know, so you need a new element to replace Palladium . I think Mr . Stark has been looking for a long time . ” Smiling, Lin Rui said faintly .
“You even know that? Who the hell are you?!” Tony couldn’t calm down anymore, all of his secrets had been laid bare .

“Now what you should be concerned about is not my knowledge, but the new element that can replace Palladium . Don’t you want to know where it is?” Head tilted, Lin Rui asked calmly .
“Do you really know?!” If the Mirage Knight really knows where the new element that can replace Palladium is, Tony really doesn’t have to worry about the threat of death .
“Of course I know, I don’t talk nonsense . And it’s in the organization I’ve been talking about . ” With a nod, Lin Rui changed his position on the chair . “In fact, one of the founders of S . H . I . E . L . D . was your father: Howard Stark . When your father died, he left a legacy in S . H . I . E . L . D . , and you will find what you’ve been looking for in that legacy . ”
“My father? Founded S . H . I . E . L . D . The new elements that can replace Palladium are in S . H . I . E . L . D . , in what he left behind?” Lin Rui’s successive news explosions almost overwhelmed Tony, he could hardly believe it .
What he had been looking for was hidden in S . H . I . E . L . D . , and they kept it a secret . His father’s legacy did not come to him and S . H . I . E . L . D . put it away . Thinking of this, Tony’s heart burst into flames .
“Yes . I think, with Mr . Stark’s current friendship with SHIELD, you should be able to get back Howard’s legacy if you go to them . As for whether you can find new elements in it, I believe you will not be disappointed . ” Feeling the ups and downs of Tony’s emotions, Lin Rui pushed the waves around again .
After a while, Tony calmed down from the news . He had taken his feet away from the Iron Man Armor Box . “Thank you for giving me the news . It’s very important to me . ”
“No, I’m glad to be able to help Mr . Stark, too . ” Knowing that Tony had slowly trusted himself, Lin Rui said with a laugh .
In another world, Nick would have told Tony the news himself and then Tony would’ve paid a big favor and joined the Avengers . Now, Lin Rui told Tony that Nick, who should have been a good man, became a cold-blooded fellow in an instant . I don’t think Tony would like him anymore .
“So, is Mr . Stark still willing to fund me?” Lin Rui asked again when Tony thought about taking back his father’s legacy from S . H . I . E . L . D .
Tony Stark is a big local tycoon . If Lin Rui’s League of Defender wants to develop rapidly, it must have a lot of money and more advanced technology . Stark’s funding is obviously a good idea .
“I think, I will be happy too . ” Looking at Lin Rui, Tony replied faintly . In response to the news that Lin Rui shared with him today, Tony had every reason to help Mirage Knight instead of S . H . I . E . L . D .
“OK! So today’s meeting will end happily . Mr . Stark, It was nice talking to you . I’ll contact you again . ” Now that everything has been said, Lin Rui doesn’t want to stay any longer . Maybe this place is under S . H . I . E . L . D . surveillance right here . As he spoke, Lin Rui got up from his chair and walked to the window .
“It was good to meet you too, Mirage Knight . ”
“Good-bye, then, Mr . Stark . ” Finally, Lin Rui greeted Tony and jumped out of the window .
