Chapter 130
In Virginia, Betty Ross was just discharged from the hospital under the greeting of her father. Because of the timely assistance and rescue of the Alliance, even without the use of special drugs, her recovery was much faster than in the original time and space, and she was discharged from the hospital in just four days.
But she still had a worry after being discharged.
This worry was naturally Bruce Banner.
After the accident that day, she completely lost the news of Banner. When she asked her father, he didn't say anything.
This made Betty very worried.
But just as she followed General Ross out of the hospital gate, she saw Tony Stark standing in the parking lot.
Betty was very surprised to see Tony, but General Ross's face immediately turned sour.
"Tony Stark, what are you doing here?" Before Betty could react, General Ross had stepped forward to question Tony.
"Oh, General Ross, is this your attitude towards your savior?" Tony didn't tolerate General Ross's questioning.
Although in theory, it was he who "snatched" Banner, an important military experiment, from General Ross.
But the problem is that this experiment itself has a big problem-because Banner doesn't know the actual situation of the research at all.
Moreover, the agreement signed by Banner and the military is only a research agreement, and there is no relevant content that Banner himself can be used as an experimental subject.
This is also the reason why Tony dares to confront the military on this matter.
Not to mention General Ross himself, the lives of their father and daughter were saved by members of the alliance.
And the alliance is nominally commanded by Tony, and the members are all Tony's friends.
So Tony is naturally equivalent to the lifesaver of the father and daughter.
Therefore, when Tony said this, General Ross felt weak.
What made General Ross even more annoyed was that his daughter was still speaking for Tony.
"Yes, Dad, Mr. Tony saved us, we have to thank him..." Betty Ross was very surprised at her father's performance.
In her impression, although her father had a bad temper and was stubborn, he was not an unreasonable person.
Obviously, General Ross did not tell her about Banner's situation in the past few days.
"Hmph, what do you know...he..." General Ross didn't know what to say for a moment, because no matter how he said it, he couldn't get around Banner.
And he didn't want to mention that man in front of his daughter.
But just because he didn't want to mention it didn't mean Tony wouldn't mention it.
"It's okay, ma'am, I'm not here to ask for a favor, but to convey Dr. Banner's greetings to you!" Tony said bluntly.
"Damn it, don't mention that guy, Betty, go back with me!" Hearing Tony mention Banner, General Ross became even angrier and immediately pulled Betty away.
But unfortunately, Betty Ross couldn't walk after hearing Banner's name.
Although most of the time, she was an obedient and gentle daughter in front of her father, but in her own feelings, the "first lady" of the Hulk was quite stubborn.
Yes, it is said that a daughter is like her father. With General Ross's stubborn character, how could his daughter really be a good girl?
More importantly, she saw from her father's attitude that her father had concealed a lot about Banner.
So she immediately broke free from her father's arm, ran to Tony and asked, "Mr. Stark, what's going on, where is Banner?"
"Let's find a place to talk slowly, General Ross, you can come too, maybe after listening, you will have some new ideas about the "Army Biochemical Power Enhancement" project!" Tony said to the parents very calmly.
"Damn, what did Bruce Banner tell you? Tony Stark, that's a top-secret military project, you are playing with fire." General Ross was shocked and angry when he heard Tony directly say the name of the military project.
"... General Ross, you really don't need to be so angry... In fact, I know more about your biochemical power enhancement project than you... Don't tell me you don't know what the prototype of this project is!" Facing the angry General Ross, Tony was not panicked at all.
If it was a top-secret project of another military, Tony would not be able to say anything. He knew too much. Even if he was the world's richest man and an important partner of the Pentagon, it would be a taboo.
But for the super soldier potion project, as long as Tony brought up his father, no one else in the world would dare to blame him.
After all, the existing results of related projects are all Howard's - unless someone can travel through time and get Dr. Erskine or the original version of the potion to the present.
As soon as Tony said this, General Ross was silent.
As the highest-ranking military officer, Ross knew a lot of things.
Not to mention that he was also a person of the same generation as Howard and had cooperated with Howard a lot.
So he knew very well that the other party had the most say in this project, as Tony said.
"Humph, who knows how much you know, you were still a child at that time!" However, General Ross refused to admit defeat.
But he also acquiesced to Tony's suggestion to find a place to talk.
He also wanted to see what Tony could say.
And in fact, Tony really couldn't say anything new.
It just explained Banner's actual situation and some theories of the super soldier potion.
"So General Ross, you really don't need to keep chasing Banner. His existence is just an accident. If you really have ideas for this project, you might as well follow Banner's steps again... Although I think the probability is similar to the previous super soldier potion." Tony said to General Ross after he finished speaking.
The probability he mentioned is the success rate probability of the military's super soldier potion before.
In fact, the military's previous super soldier potion is not a failure - just like the American TV series Winter Soldier and Hawkeye, there was a retired super soldier.
It's just that like the Winter Soldier of Hydra, there are problems such as low success rate and unstable mental state.
For example, Bronski at the beginning of the original plot was actually successful... He was able to recover from the whole body fractures caused by Hulk.
But the side effects made him embark on the road of no return to becoming abomination.
"Humph... I'll let someone verify what you said!" General Ross snorted coldly. He was skeptical about Tony's words, but he certainly couldn't show it on the surface.
But this was just his final stubbornness.
Because no matter whether it was true or not, he couldn't do anything to Tony.
"I'm going to see Banner!" After listening to Tony's story, Betty Ross said very firmly, completely ignoring General Ross's objection.
Especially in a public place like this with Tony present, he couldn't take any coercive measures against his daughter.
Forget it, let her go... Looking at the persistence on his daughter's face, General Ross compromised helplessly.
At this moment, Tony even felt that the general seemed a little older.
