Man in Marvel, Host of Venom

Chapter 187, Unforgettable taste
New York, Long Island, in the laboratory of Tony Stark Villa.

Tony turned off the lights in the lab and was looking at the image of his father on the screen.

Tony was half lying on the chair, flipping through the notes left by his father, while listening to the video of his father Howard Stark recording the opening scene for that year's exposition.

After several failed shots were shown, the lights in the next scene dimmed, and it seemed that it was already time for people to rest quietly in the dead of night.

In the picture, Howard Stark was facing the camera, sitting on the sand table in the exhibition, and suddenly spoke in a deep and serious tone.

"Tony, you are still too young to understand, so I will take this part for you first."

Hearing this, Tony turned his head and looked at the curtain in surprise. He didn't expect that his father would leave such an image for him.

"All of this is created for you, and one day you will understand what this means."

"It's not just a human invention, it's my lifetime achievement. It's the key to the future."

"I'm limited by the technology of my time, so there's no way to do it, but one day you'll know all about it."

"At that point, you will have changed the world."

Speaking of this, Howard Stark smiled uncommonly, with a gentleness Tony had never seen on his face: "I never told you, in fact, my greatest creation is you."

The screen ended and all the videos were played. Tony was still holding the cup, staring blankly at the curtain, his father's last words circling in his mind.

The father in the picture is completely different from his impression. Howard Stark in his impression is very strict and strict with him.

I have never said I love him or expressed any other words of friendship.

But judging from Nick Fury's previous conveyance and the final emotional expression in the film, it's not that his father doesn't love him, nor does he not pay attention to him, it's just that he doesn't know how to express it.

Perhaps only when facing an unattended camera could his father reveal his deepest thoughts and express his expectations and love for him.

Tony sat back in his chair and closed his eyes.

Thinking of the time he spent with his parents and what he said in the video, his throat moved up and down, and he seemed to have some unspeakable choking.

After a while, he opened his eyes, sat up, and walked to the console.

At the same time, Jarvis also controlled the clumsy robot hand and walked over carrying a tray.

"Sir, this is the antidote that Mr. Chen prepared for you. The agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. simply detected it but never opened it."

Jarvis's voice rang in the laboratory, and at the same time, a small box on the tray was placed in front of Tony.

"I didn't expect the antidote to be ready so soon. It seems that I should have communicated with them in advance. Next time, next time."

While talking, Tony put his finger on the sunken mark on the surface of the box according to the instructions.

Under the dented mark, a tiny short needle poked out from inside, pricked Tony's finger, and absorbed a drop of blood into it.

Within a second, the test was completed, the box popped open with a crisp sound, and a string of words appeared on it.

"Blood toxicity, 40.00% three."

Tony looked at the words displayed and continued to open the box.

A white mist suddenly surged out of the box, and a faint chill spread at the same time.

As the fog dissipated, four small glass test tubes rose up from the box.

Along with them comes a card filled with instructions for how to use them.

"One dose a day, orally divided into three days, and drink water or eat after 5 minutes."

"The effect is to remove toxins from the body and speed up metabolism to eliminate them from the body."

After reading the card explaining the usage, Tony also picked up a green reagent emitting a soft light and shook it gently.

"I thought it would be an injection, but I didn't expect it to be taken orally like medicine."

"And since it was taken orally for three days, why did you give me four pills? Are you afraid of accidentally breaking them?"

Tony muttered as he unscrewed the cap, and a faint fragrance came from inside and penetrated into his nose.

"It smells quite fresh, and the taste should be good too." Tony thought secretly while raising his head, then poured all the medicine into his mouth and swallowed it.

It was fresh and sweet at the first entrance, and then it turned into extreme bitterness in an instant, so bitter that the tongue and throat felt a little numb.

"Ha! Cough, cough, cough!" Tony's eyes widened and his face was distorted. He covered his mouth and throat, trying not to spit out the remaining potion that he had not swallowed.

At this moment, he finally understood what the extra reagent was for. It was to prevent him from spitting out the medicine, so he prepared an extra one for him.

But he couldn't spit it out even if he gritted his teeth today, otherwise he would have to endure the same pain again. If he drank one more time, he felt that he would die suddenly on the spot.

Tony resisted and swallowed the rest of the potion, then opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath, trying to suppress the bitter taste in his mouth and throat, but bitter taste was different from hotness, and opening his mouth wide was useless.

Tony wandered around and finally got his cup from the wine cabinet nearby, ready to drink some water to suppress the bitter taste.

But when he just picked up the cup, Jarvis next to him reminded him: "Sir, you can't drink water. The reminder just now said that you can only drink water or eat after 5 minutes."

"Drinking water now may affect the efficacy of the medicine, and you may need to drink another dose later."

After hearing Jarvis's reminder, Tony could only put down his cup and walk around with a twisted face.

Suppressing my discomfort, discomfort, and nausea, I survived for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, hearing the reminder from Jarvis, Tony hurriedly picked up the prepared water glass and poured it into his mouth.

After drinking a large glass, Tony felt that the bitter taste in his mouth was much lighter. Although it was still very bitter, it was much easier to accept than before.

"Lyon! You bastard! Jarvis, call him, I want to ask him what's going on!"

Thinking of the taste of the potion, Tony felt that Chen Lin'an must be playing tricks on him, but in order to avoid errors in the effect of the potion and to prevent himself from drinking more, he could only break his teeth and swallow it.

"Sorry sir, our communications have been cut off before. There is no way to contact Mr. Chen." Jarvis reminded.

Hearing Jarvis's words, Tony was also a little crazy, he forgot that the communication was cut off.

There was no way to contact Chen Linan, and there was no way to know from the other party whether this was a prank, so he could only grit his teeth and continue drinking for three days.
