Cherreads

Chapter 92 - Chapter : 63.1 : Missile Bombed The Villa

People following the live broadcast never imagined that Tony, standing before so many reporters, would openly declare war on terrorists. His words were so flamboyant and powerful that the audience erupted in cheers.

Watching Tony's furious expression, some viewers felt a pang of distress. The director sighed softly and quickened the pace of constructing the Hall of Honor of Heroes. This Hall was inspired by Tony, but it was not his alone. In a past life, anyone who contributed significantly to a particular historical era could be chosen to join the Hall of Heroes.

As the live broadcast continued, the audience numbers suddenly surged. News of Tony's bold declaration spread rapidly beyond the studio; everyone wanted to see how Tony would handle the terrorists. Yet, amid the excitement, many critics argued that Tony's approach was too radical.

"Terrorists are terrorists; what they do is morally wrong."

"It's risky to expose your address like that."

"If terrorists carry out attacks, there will be nowhere to hide or cry."

"Tony isn't afraid of trouble."

"Exactly, with Mark 42 on our side, we're invincible!"

The screen then shifted to Tony's private studio.

[ In the sleek spatial holographic projector, the appearance of the black-robed master and related information appeared. ]

[ Jarvis's voice chimed in: "I've compiled data on the black-robed master, sir." ]

[ Jarvis continued: "Sources include S.H.I.E.L.D., the FBI, and the Special Investigations Service." ]

[ Tony manipulated the holographic interface with both hands, forming two grasping plates to pull information into a larger display. ]

[ Jarvis announced: "Now, initiating virtual crime scene reconstruction." ]

[ A vast array of data materialized in the form of interconnected blue lines, weaving into a detailed three-dimensional model of the explosion site. ]

"Wow! This is incredible! Much better than Killian's show!"

"Is this a reconstruction of the scene?"

"Tony's high-tech gadgets are everywhere!"

"This display alone must make many envious."

"Who wouldn't want one?"

"What's Tony trying to do, find the culprit?"

"I'm not sure; all I see is a bunch of data. After all, Tony's not a detective."

"Look, Tony's bound to surprise us again."

[ Tony rose and stepped into the holographic visualization of the entire crime scene. ]

[ "Okay, let's see," he muttered, examining the data while saying to himself, "He's familiar with terrorist tactics and resistant strategies." ]

[ Turning around, Tony glanced at the model, scratched his head, and commented, "It looks quite lively here. Seems like a lot of action is happening." ]

[ Jarvis added: "The explosion's heat exceeded 3,000 degrees Celsius, vaporizing objects within a 12.5-yard radius instantly." ]

[ As Jarvis explained, relevant demo information appeared directly in midair. ]

[ Tony inspected the scene and noted, "No bomb fragments were found within three miles of the theater." ]

[ Jarvis confirmed: "That's correct, sir." ]

[ Tony looked down at his feet, where the area surrounding Happy's fall was displayed. "Show me Happy," he ordered. ]

[ Images updated and layered over each other, gradually revealing the actual scene at that moment. Following Happy's finger and gaze annotations, Jarvis marked the target point. Tony approached, and the display refreshed in real time as he moved. ]

[ Seated on a chair, Tony waved his hand, isolating that specific area. Different information flashed between his gestures. "When is a bomb not really a bomb?" he mused. ]

[ Suddenly, two images appeared, and Tony locked onto them, enlarging for detailed examination. ]

Inside the Administration Office, several military industry leaders rose abruptly, staring at the screen in disbelief. The 3D reconstructions of Happy lying on the ground animated before their eyes. Jarvis intelligently marked the points of interest, causing the military executives to gasp in astonishment.

"This level of artificial intelligence is astonishing!"

"Jarvis's methods must be authorized by the global satellite system. Otherwise, this clarity wouldn't be possible."

Every time Jarvis made a move, the military leaders expressed awe and excitement. With Jarvis, many seemingly impossible tasks became attainable.

Johan praised: "I've seen many detectives or investigators in previous cases, but nothing like this. It's innovative and highly efficient!"

The director studied the massive 3D holographic projection and asked the military boss, "Can this kind of holographic system be developed? I used to think holographic projection and intelligent systems were only for high-end studios, not for practical case analysis. But now, it's incredibly powerful."

The military leaders pondered this. Several shook their heads slowly. "It's difficult," one said. "A simple 3D projection is feasible, but such an interactive, responsive display is impossible."

Another added, "It's not just that. Jarvis is the pinnacle of AI; no system like it exists. Many functions are still hidden."

The director had to temporarily set aside this hope.

At the Federal Police Headquarters, Police Chief Sid stood with his team, watching the live feed on the monitor.

He exclaimed in shock, "If we had this equipment, our detection capabilities would skyrocket."

His subordinates echoed his amazement.

"Chief, this is incredible!"

"With this, we'd save so much trouble."

"We wouldn't even need as many personnel, just rely on this intelligent system."

"But that's also a concern. He's accessing so much information, obviously with extensive permissions."

"There's a security risk."

"Could someone hack this system?"

"Hacking? Not likely. It's too powerful and secure."

Despite their admiration, worries lingered.

Sid regained his composure and said, "Let's see how the inference works in practice."

Everyone turned back to the screen, and what happened next left them all stunned.

[ Tony asked: "Did any military personnel die?" ]

[ Jarvis replied: "No public records, sir." ]

[ Tony moved to the top of the display and commanded: "Show the heat source again, and factor in the heat." ]

[ A large amount of data appeared projected onto the central display. ]

[ Jarvis announced: "Analysis complete. Satellite data has been linked, and thermal mapping has been generated for the past year." ]

[ Red columnar models representing temperature levels appeared at various points, suspended in the air. ]

[ Tony scrutinized the many heat signatures and instructed, "Remove the area attacked by Mandarin." ]

[ Many of the heat sources vanished instantly. ]

[ Tony then focused on the remaining signals. Pointing to one in the corner, he asked, "Are you sure this wasn't his attack?" ]

[ Jarvis enlarged the image, displaying the heat signature of the bald man, Savin. ]

[ "This predates any Mandarin attack; this was a suicide bombing," Jarvis confirmed. ]

[ Tony ordered sharply, "Bring him here." ]

[ Jarvis continued: "The heat signature is very similar, around 3,000 degrees, involving two military personnel." ]

[ "Have you been to Tennessee, Jarvis?" ]

[ Jarvis replied intelligently, "Plans are underway to fly there now." ]
