The Ability Should Be Used on the One You Love (Extra 2 for Monthly Tickets)

"Master, you really are a scumbag!" Tony stared at Zhan Liu, who was sitting across from him and leisurely drinking tea, his expression complicated.

"What are you referring to?" Zhan Liu was very satisfied with his prized disciple and did not mind the small verbal disrespect.

"You never told us that after reaching the Tenth Heaven of Magnetic Field Rotation, one could read other people’s thoughts and memories at will." Tony complained bitterly.

"Haha…" Zhan Liu burst into laughter.

"I’m really looking forward to seeing how Peter’s worldview will be reshaped after he reaches the Tenth Heaven."

"What a disgusting hobby!" Tony curled his lip. "Whenever I remember you rummaging around in my head and searching through it at will, I feel sick from the bottom of my heart!"

"Haha… Tony, you’re overthinking it. I have no interest in reading your memories. Other than X-fluid, what else could possibly be in your head? I’m afraid of being contaminated!" Zhan Liu mocked him.

"Nonsense! I’m the genius Tony Stark. My head is filled with nothing but engineering blueprints. Even if you wanted to look, you wouldn’t understand them!" Tony stubbornly denied it, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tony, you only read someone else’s thoughts when you care about what they think. I don’t care about anyone’s thoughts, so naturally I have no interest in rummaging around in other people’s heads. But…"

Zhan Liu asked with an evil grin, "By the way, have you tried reading the thoughts of someone close to you? How did it feel?"

Tony smacked his lips. "Hmm… Pepper is very satisfied!"

"Damn! You really are a genius, using this ability for that!" Zhan Liu was stunned and admired him wholeheartedly.

The title of Lustful War God truly suited him!

Tony was not ashamed in the slightest. Instead, he wore it as a badge of honor and said proudly, "An ability should naturally be used to make the person you love happy. Using it for anything else would be a true waste! By the way, I don’t read men’s minds. It’s too disgusting!"

Zhan Liu rolled his eyes, seeing right through the man. Tony was lecherous to the bone. He was beyond saving!

"Have you tried reading Obadiah’s thoughts?"

"Uncle Obadiah? What happened to him?" Tony asked in surprise, momentarily stunned.

"Oh, right, Master, you don’t know yet. He died in the aftermath of the battle earlier. Unfortunately, Magneto’s reversal of time was too brief, so it couldn’t bring him back to life." Tony took a sip of tea and sighed regretfully.

"Is that so? He’s dead…" Zhan Liu said regretfully.

He had really been looking forward to seeing the moment Tony discovered Obadiah’s true nature!

"I should have held out a little longer earlier. If he had been able to come to the Martial Arts School and study for a few months, even if he had only reached the Current Drive Realm, he wouldn’t have met such a tragic fate!" Tony deeply regretted it and could not let the matter go.

Tragic?

That’s hard to say!

Maybe it was actually fortunate.

Zhan Liu thought maliciously.

Tony took another sip of tea and continued:

"I’ve discovered that the Strong Magnetic Armor still has some shortcomings. It can only provide a realm enhancement to people who possess the power of Magnetic Field Rotation, but it offers no help at all to those who practice Current Drive or to ordinary people. I plan to conduct in-depth research in this area in the future."

Zhan Liu frowned. "Tony, your research direction is wrong. You should be researching upward—how to create armor that allows Magnetic Field Rotation practitioners to reach higher realms—instead of researching downward and making something for ordinary people to use."

"Of course I want to research upward too, but my research has hit a bottleneck. I can’t see any possibility of a breakthrough in the short term."

"Tsk! Fine, do as you please." Zhan Liu did not know that the bottleneck Tony mentioned was actually a materials problem, nor did he ask further. After all, he knew nothing about scientific research, and saying more would be pointless.

After seeing Tony off, Natasha came over with a pile of documents and asked Zhan Liu, the school’s master, to sign and confirm them.

Looking at Natasha’s curvaceous and graceful figure, Zhan Liu could not help thinking of what Tony had just said.

This did seem like an interesting way to use it!

Once the thought occurred to him, Zhan Liu immediately tossed the documents aside and began practicing the mind-reading effect of the Tenth Heaven of Magnetic Field Rotation on Natasha.

After leaving the Martial Arts School, Tony flew straight home, where Pepper was waiting for him.

Ever since the two had confirmed their relationship, although they had not held a wedding, their relationship had already gone to the next level. They were no different from a real married couple.

Tony landed in front of the house and hugged and kissed Pepper when she came out to greet him. He had wanted to continue kissing her for a while longer, but Pepper pushed him away and pointed inside the room.

"There’s a guest."

He entered the room sulkily, leaned against the sofa, and glanced sideways at Nick Fury across from him. "Why aren’t you off building your boy band? What are you doing here?"

"Hey, don’t be so cold, Tony!" Nick smiled and tried to ingratiate himself.

"I brought you an heirloom your father left behind at S.H.I.E.L.D. There should be something inside that he intended for you."

"It seems to be a new element. With the technology available at the time, it was completely impossible to manufacture. Perhaps it can help with your current predicament."

"A new element?" Tony was stunned.

Most of the elements in the world were already listed on the periodic table. Discovering a new element was no easy matter.

Especially considering that this element had been discovered decades ago yet remained unknown to everyone else until now, it was even more remarkable.

"What kind of new element is it?" he asked curiously.

"The specifics are all in this box." Nick pointed at the box on the table. "You’ll only know whether it’s suitable after you manufacture it."

Tony hesitated, but eventually reached out and took the box.

Seeing that his objective had been achieved, Nick immediately stood up to leave.

Tony’s mind was full of thoughts about what was inside the box. He casually waved his hand and told Nick to get lost.

Fortunately, Nick did not care about such superficial formalities. What he cared about was Tony’s research results. As long as Tony developed it, he had plenty of ways to obtain the final product.

Full of hope, Tony brought the box to the laboratory and, with Jarvis’s help, deciphered the hidden blueprint of the new element’s structure.

But after manufacturing the new element, he discovered to his disappointment that it was meant for use in the Arc Reactor. It could replace the palladium inside, turning the new Arc Reactor into an efficient, clean, green energy source.

The thing was remarkable. It could successfully transform Stark Industries into an energy company.

But the world was changing too quickly now, and the thing no longer had much use.

As long as ordinary people trained in Current Drive, their own bodies would become mobile power stations—completely green and environmentally friendly.

Before this new element could even enter the market, it had already been rendered obsolete by the times.

It was easy to predict that in the future, anything unrelated to Magnetic Field Rotation would basically no longer qualify as cutting-edge technology.
