Chapter 89. The Mysterious Man Possessing the Ten Rings and Ten Commandments
Inside the laboratory, Obadiah was tightly strapped to a chair, his eyes blazing with fury. He shouted, "Stark, so what if you win this time? We will rule the world and restore order!"
"This—" Stark looked at Ji Yuan, his eyes filled with deep confusion, "What happened?"
"Mind control," Ji Yuan said. "Your uncle is under mind control, which is why he's acting so strangely. However, we'll only know the truly crucial information after he breaks free from mind control."
After saying that, he looked at the girl beside him: "Wanda, you remove Obadiah's mind control."
"Me?" Wanda pointed to herself in surprise. "Can I?"
"You can do it." Ji Yuan nodded firmly. "Believe in yourself, feel the rhythm of your heart, set things right, and you will break free from the control of your mind."
Under Ji Yuan's encouraging gaze, Wanda nodded, secretly cheering herself up, and stretched out her hands to Obadiah, red energy gathering in her palms.
The crimson energy completely enveloped Obadiah. Wanda focused her mind, carefully sensing the unusual fluctuations in his consciousness.
She quickly detected a completely different rhythm. With a slight thought, the power of chaotic magic surged in, smoothing out this unusual rhythm.
"Did you succeed?" Wanda looked at Ji Yuan expectantly.
"It's a success." Ji Yuan nodded and said, and then a barely perceptible ray of light entered Obadiah's body.
Wanda happily raised her hands and stepped aside to stand next to Ji Yuan.
Obadiah, who had fainted due to the chaos magic, slowly awoke at this moment. His eyes no longer held anger, but deep remorse: "Tony, I—"
Seeing this, Stark quickly untied the ropes binding him and slowly said, "Uncle Obadiah, what happened? Why did you do this?"
Obadiah sighed and said something that surprised Stark: "Actually, I just wanted to kidnap you, but something unexpected happened and I almost killed you. But the result is good; at least you're not such a bastard anymore."
Stark's eyes widened in disbelief. "Kidnapping was your own idea? And it has nothing to do with mind control?"
Obadiah smiled and nodded: "It was my idea. I wanted to kidnap you. I originally wanted to give you a shocking lesson, but I didn't expect to run into a mysterious person."
He told everyone present the whole story of how he was mind-controlled and the information he received during the control. After he finished speaking, he lay down on the chair, exhausted, and fell into a deep sleep. The mind control had taken an enormous toll on his mental health.
Stark rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
He never expected that this involved a super transnational criminal organization; he had originally thought it was just a small terrorist group.
Fortunately, Uncle Obadiah did not betray Stark Industries; he was merely being controlled, though his motives were complicated.
Am I really that much of a jerk?
Stark looked at Ji Yuan and said, "Did you already know?"
Ji Yuan shook his head. He really didn't know that. In his memory, Obadiah wanted to replace Stark and take control of the entire Stark Industries.
To achieve this goal, he not only plotted to kidnap Stark, but also stole the reactor and built the Iron Monger in an attempt to kill Stark completely.
But now?
Obadiah did indeed plan the kidnapping of Stark, but his aim was not to kill him, but to awaken him through a shock education and get him back in charge of the company.
This is definitely the truth, exactly the same as what Ji Yuan heard through mind-reading.
The key to Tony's near death was that Obadiah's mind was controlled by the mysterious man, whose goal was to steal various technologies from Stark Industries through Obadiah.
As for why he didn't directly control Stark, Ji Yuan had no clue.
Furthermore, Obadiah's memory did not contain the specific appearance of the mysterious person; it seemed to be deliberately blurred. He only remembered that the mysterious person had ten rings on his arm and a ring on each of his ten fingers.
"What the hell is this?" Ji Yuan wondered to himself.
You know, the Ten Rings are from the movie, and the Ten Commandments are from the comics. How come you have both?
An epic buff? Or are they just secretly together? These two backgrounds are completely different, it's really strange.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it."
Ji Yuan shook his head. Whether it's the Ten Rings, the Ten Rings, or the combined version, let's focus on being able to withstand Noah's normal punch first. Even if we can withstand it, there are still thousands of skills waiting to be used against it, so there's no need to worry too much.
"So what should I do now?" Stark asked Ji Yuan instinctively.
"You're asking me?" Ji Yuan spread his hands. "You should ask Jarvis."
"Yeah, right." Stark stomped his foot. "Jarvis, go check the place where I was attacked and see if there are any clues."
"Yes, Mr. Stark," Jarvis said slowly, then transformed into a beam of light and entered the network, traveling along it to the Middle East.
"Tony, what's going on with Jarvis?" Pepper asked in confusion after seeing Jarvis turn into light and enter the network. How come Stark's technology seems to have advanced to a higher level after just one morning?
"Oh, Pepper, this is the latest research from the genius Stark, the super artificial intelligence Jarvis. He has many, many abilities. What do you think? Am I amazing?" Stark winked at Ji Yuan, who smiled knowingly.
Pepper squinted and smiled, saying, "Yes, yes, our genius Stark is the best."
A few minutes later.
A bright light suddenly appeared in the laboratory, and Jarvis's body reformed. He said, "Mr. Stark,"
Nothing was left there; it seemed someone had deliberately cleaned it up.
"Alright." Stark waved his hand. This was within his expectations; such a transnational terrorist organization would certainly not leave any clues about their whereabouts.
He then looked at Ji Yuan with an extremely lewd smile: "Ji Yuan, look, I'm being targeted by this super criminal organization now. Can you give me one of your blessing spells too? You don't want me to get killed without even realizing it, do you?"
Stark had already asked Pepper. Under the protection of that magical blessing, the car was not only completely undamaged, but they couldn't even feel any vibration inside. Even when the car was reversed, their sense of direction remained constant. The magic contained within it is worth investigating.
Ji Yuan curled his lip and said viciously, "I really wish you were killed. Now Jarvis can transmit data to his main body and merge with you at any time. Are you still afraid of being attacked?"
"But what if?" he said with a grin, changing the subject. "How about ten billion protective spells?"
"Go to hell!" Stark cursed.
Ji Yuan laughed and said, "You'll have the chance to experience the power of protective magic later. Right now, why don't you get more mechs? We have a lot of people to catch in our final operation."
After he finished speaking, ripples spread through the space, and Ji Yuan and Wanda disappeared into Stark Tower.
Stark watched Ji Yuan vanish in an instant, a burning desire gleaming in his eyes. One day, he would unravel the essence of the power of light and surpass the gods!
