Natasha frowned and asked, "Family history?"

"That's right." The young man nodded and said seriously, "Your confidentiality level is higher than mine, and you have the authority to know this information. I will tell you directly. Anton Vanko is a former Soviet physicist who defected to the United States in 1963 and led the Ark Reactor project with Tony Stark's father Howard Stark."

"However, when the project was about to succeed, the two disagreed on the future use of the Ark Reactor. Howard Stark thought that the Ark Reactor could benefit mankind, while Anton Vanke believed that the Ark Reactor could make a lot of money. Howard thought that Anton's idea was too dangerous, so he decided to expel him from the country..."

At this point, the young man paused and shrugged, "Of course, it seems now that Howard still listened to Anton's advice. After all, his son has become one of the richest people in the world."

Natasha ignored the sarcasm in the young man's tone, frowned at him and said:

"Rivers, are you sure Ivan Vanko will come to Tony Stark?"

"Not sure." The Chinese youth named Rivers shook his head, "But based on my investigation and understanding of the target, the probability that he will come here is as high as 98.233%!"

…How was this 0.233% calculated?

Looking at the serious expression on Rivers' face, Natasha's mouth twitched.

After careful consideration, Natasha chose to believe this fellow SHIELD agent.

Although the other party's words and actions are a little weird, he is still trustworthy in terms of ability.

They discussed in a low voice for a while and decided to let Natasha, who was a personal assistant and undercover agent, return to Tony Stark for close protection, while Rivers continued to look for Ivan Vanko's trace at the banquet.

The two cover each other and communicate at any time.

Soon, Natasha found a suitable time to leave the bathroom.

Rivers stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself in the mirror with twinkling eyes.

His real name is Ye Zixun, and his English name is Rivers Skinner. He graduated from the S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy and is currently a level seven agent directly reporting to Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., with a top secret security level. He is one of the fastest promoted S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the past decade.

The reason why he was able to be promoted so quickly, in addition to his outstanding abilities, was also because he had a foresight about the plot.

That’s right, Ye Zixun is a time traveler.

When he first traveled through time, Ye Zixun didn't know that this was the Marvel world, he just thought he had returned to the past.

He originally planned to invest in a business based on his foresight into the future and become an enviable billionaire.

But who would have thought that when he was eight years old, Ye Zixun found a photo among the relics of his adoptive grandfather.

The photo shows my grandfather when he was young, in the army, with Captain America Steve Rogers...

Looking at the name of Steve Rogers and the familiar shield in his hand, Ye Zixun was dumbfounded.

Since then, Ye Zixun's goals have changed rapidly.

From what he knew about Marvel, in this world, power and strength were far more important than money.

Even if he really became a billionaire because of his foresight, so what?

Without Tony Stark's wisdom, when Thanos comes to Earth in the future, he can only sit at home and stare, praying that the one in two probability will not fall on him.

So, Ye Zixun decisively began to change his goal.

He first studied hard, using the advantage of his graduate degree in his previous life to make himself a child prodigy. Then, through his grandfather's connections in the army, he was admitted to S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, a direct academy of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Since then, Ye Zixun has been honing his abilities in the S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy, and finally joined S.H.I.E.L.D. with the excellent result of being ranked first among the students in this period and became a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.

In Ye Zixun's understanding, as a non-plot protagonist, he can only get in touch with the powerful supernatural forces in the Marvel world through S.H.I.E.L.D.

In fact, this is true.

In the battle between Hulk and Abomination that took place at the beginning of this year, Ye Zixun participated in the aftermath work as a front-line agent, and relied on his foresight of the plot to obtain three tubes of Hulk serum that were not destroyed.

However, due to the danger and uncertainty of the Hulk serum, Ye Zixun has not dared to inject it privately so far.

But he still carried one of the tubes of Hulk serum with him as his last resort.

Touching the hard titanium alloy needle-free syringe in his pocket, Ye Zixun took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom.

After exchanging a glance with Natasha beside Tony Stark, Ye Zixun nodded, left the banquet venue, and prepared to go to the racetrack to look for Ivan Vanko's trace.

In his memory, Ivan Vanko should have been disguised as a racing driver's mechanic at this time.

He is currently in a repair room at the stadium, waiting for his enemy Tony Stark to show up.

Because of palladium poisoning, Tony decided to find some excitement in his boring life in the last time, so he personally participated in the racing race.

During the game, Ivan Vanko came out and gave Tony Stark a big surprise with his simple equipment.

Ye Zixun has already thought about his next performance. He decided to take action when Ivan Vanko really threatens Tony, and quickly take down the villain of "Iron Man 2", and then take this opportunity to establish a good friendship with Tony Stark.

All the predecessors who traveled to the Marvel world did this, so Ye Zixun felt that there should be no problem with him either.

In this way, Ye Zixun lurked somewhere in the racetrack, waiting for the plot in his memory to appear.

After waiting for a while, the game began.

Tony was still sitting in the banquet hall, hugging Pepper and watching the car race on the big screen.

Listening to the ** commentary coming from the loudspeakers in the venue, Ye Zixun hung up the phone with Natasha, stared blankly in the direction of the banquet with his eyes wide open, seeming to doubt his life.

...This development is wrong!

Why didn't Tony play in the game?

“Could it be that something I did before caused a butterfly effect?”

Ye Zixun frowned tightly, recalling his deeds after traveling through time with a look of doubt on his face.

At this moment, screams and exclamations suddenly came from the building in the direction of the banquet.

Ye Zixun suddenly raised his head, threw away the maintenance tools in his hand, ignored the scolding from the team leader beside him, and ran towards the banquet.

Three minutes ago, at the banquet full of lights and feasting, a racing mechanic in a yellow uniform quietly broke into the venue, biting a chewed toothpick in his mouth, and cast a seemingly nonchalant look at Tony Stark who was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window.

Looking at the face in his memory and the blonde beauty beside him, Ivan Vanko smiled.

The next second, the black rubber handle slipped from his sleeve, and two slender metal whips popped out from the handle.

Ivan Vanko pressed the button, and the Ark reactor on his chest was instantly activated. A powerful electric current surged out of it, and white arcs of electricity entangled the two metal whips like spirit snakes.

“Crackle—”

Electricity crackled in the air, and the heat ignited his clothes.

The burnt smell in the air finally attracted the attention of everyone at the banquet.

Christine, who was talking to Justin Hammer, saw this scene and screamed immediately.

The crowd suddenly became chaotic.

Tony Stark finally noticed Ivan Vanko, who was wearing simple armor.

Seeing the energy source on his chest that was similar to the Ark reactor, Tony couldn't help but be stunned.

At the same time, Ivan Vanko swung the electric whip in his hand with a grim smile, paying no attention to the innocent people around him.

“Pah—”

The long metal whip carrying a powerful electric current came crashing down, splitting the table in front of him in half.

The people around suddenly screamed, and a lady in gorgeous clothes collapsed to the ground, crawling backwards using her hands and feet, her delicate face full of distorted fear.

Everyone turned around and ran out of the banquet venue.

Ivan Vanko ignored the passers-by who were running away, skillfully waving the whip in his hand, and walked towards Tony Stark.

Tony met Ivan Vanko's eyes and immediately realized that the other party was probably targeting him.

"careful!"

Natasha suddenly kicked Tony away and rushed to the side while holding Pepper.

"boom!"

The electric whip came down, splitting the table in front of everyone in half.

The high temperature ignited the white tablecloth, and the diffuse white smoke choked Tony next to him and made him cough repeatedly.

Finally, the bodyguards of the big shots who were waiting outside the venue arrived and shot at Ivan Vanko with their guns.

But Ivan Vanko was not afraid at all. He swung the whip in his hand at an extremely fast speed. The white arcs of electricity bursting from the metal whip connected into pieces in the air, blocking all the bullets.

Seeing this scene, the bodyguards who were shooting couldn't help but be stunned.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ivan Vanko swung out his whip with a grim smile. Countless arcs of electricity surrounded the whip, like a white streak, cutting the three unsuspecting bodyguards in half.

Blood gushed out, and the three bodyguards who were cut in half fell to the ground wailing.

At the same time, Tony's bodyguard Happy also arrived at the venue.

He was also holding a red briefcase in his hand, which was the Mark 5 portable iron armor developed by Tony.

Tony quickly got up from the ground and was about to take the red briefcase when a long white electric whip cut through the air and struck Tony's head with a piercing scream.

At this critical moment, the Gray Mist Coin on Tony's chest lit up with golden light.

The outer shell made of white jade suddenly cracked, and the gray mist turned into golden lightning, instantly shattering the metal whip full of white arcs in Ivan Vanko's hand, along with his entire arm.

Blood splattered everywhere, and broken flesh and metal fragments fell all over the ground.

Ye Zixun came hurriedly from the racetrack at this time and happened to see this scene. He could not help but stand there in a daze.

...What the hell is this?

He remembered that this plot was not in the movie!
