Chapter 90 - 88
Only a Chapter today. I'm busy with a few things. Thanks for reading!
...
In the dark cave, Tony Stark, who had been missing for several months, lay on a wooden board, wearing a dusty gray tank top. He stared blankly at the small window in the corner, the only source of light.
He could no longer remember how many days and sleepless nights he had spent there. In the beginning, he had clung to life by holding onto a car battery, then he fell into a state of despair. He was forced to create a new weapon, the Jericho missile. Finally, encouraged by the old man named Yinsen, he resolved to use his intelligence to escape.
In the corner not far away stood a tall object covered by a rag—his only hope for escape.
Tony's chest rose and fell, and he could feel his life force weakening. Every night, the pain in his chest would wake him up multiple times. His eyes were unfocused, and his mind felt completely blank.
Not far away, Yinsen, with gray hair at his temples and glasses, sat in front of the stove, brewing low-quality coffee.
Aside from the chaotic noise outside, the cave was quiet and strangely peaceful. Noise? It seemed distant.
Tony Stark was still in a daze when he suddenly sensed something was wrong. He sat up abruptly from the board and looked at Yinsen in surprise.
Yinsen had stood up at some point and was now looking at Tony with the same concern.
"What's going on outside?" Tony asked.
