After inspecting the studio, Cade prepared to walk around downtown Austin. He hadn't been to Austin for a long time since he helped Broly manage the farm.
Tessa needed to deal with the problems accumulated in the operation of the food supply chain and check the bills, so she stayed in the studio. Ivan Vanke took the initiative to ask Cade to accompany him and ask him some questions about production design.
Cade liked Ivan very much and agreed immediately, but Tessa was a little worried.
Ivan Vanke has been in the studio for nearly a month. He works diligently and has never been late or left early. He works in the studio until 10 o'clock every day before going home. But if other engineers want to go out with Cade, Tessa will not worry at all, except Ivan.
Cade was already considered a big Texas man, but Ivan was still half a head taller than him. Although the clothes Ivan wore were very loose, they were still bulging with muscles.
After seeing Ivan easily carry more than 200 kilograms of parts on his shoulders, Tessa had no doubt that he could easily break his father Cade's neck.
"It doesn't matter. I like such motivated children."
Cade said.
Just now, these engineers flattered Cade to the sky. Only Ivan could hit his itch, just right.
Tessa had a headache. Although Ivan was less than 30 years old, he looked like he was of the same generation as Cade. But she couldn't think of any reason to reject Ivan, so she could only nod reluctantly.
Balvino wanted to go with them, but was rejected by Cade.
Cade started the engine of the Mercedes-Benz Maybach and drove slowly on the streets of Austin. After driving the car into a somewhat remote alley, Ivan Vanko suddenly reached a hand into his arms.
Cade, who was sitting in the main driving seat, immediately became alert. He brought Ivan out on purpose, not just because he was flattering. As a daughter slave, after discovering that there was a ferocious person like Ivan in the studio, he certainly wanted to test him for his daughter.
But he didn't expect that Ivan Vanke would be so impatient to take action.
Cade felt a little proud. Ivan would never have thought that the Mercedes-Benz Maybach they were sitting in would be a powerful robot that could subdue them at any time.
"Mr. Cade, because the technology of that powered exoskeleton is too advanced, in order to prevent someone from secretly selling the technical information about the powered exoskeleton, I set up a security firewall, but I didn't expect to eavesdrop on a conversation."
Ivan Vanko said, took out his cell phone and pressed the play button.
After fast-forwarding through the more than 40-minute recording, Cade was already covered in cold sweat. With his hands trembling, he drove the car to the side of the road and stopped.
"What...what do you want?"
He asked in a somewhat awkward tone.
"No, no, no... I'm not taking this out to force you to get anything, Mr. Cade. I just want to meet the real designer of the powered exoskeleton."
Ivan Vanke said this and directly deleted the recording on his phone.
"Hahaha... "
A loud laugh suddenly rang out in the car, and the entire Mercedes-Benz Maybach suddenly vibrated violently and began to deform rapidly.
A few seconds later, Ivan Vanko lay on the ground, looking in shock at the giant robot standing in this deserted alley. The scene before him was even more outrageous than his most outrageous guess.
"Ironhide... Didn't we agree not to expose ourselves in front of ordinary people?"
Cade was a little upset.
Ironhide just laughed out loud, it had been a long time since he had come across such a funny joke.
"I'm sorry, but I just can't help it. I've already advised you not to hide our existence from Tessa. Let's talk about how to solve this problem. Should we kill this guy?"
As he spoke, the muzzle of the gun on his right arm began to charge and glow, pointing at Ivan Vanko's head.
"Believe me, if I shoot him like this, I guarantee that not even a hair will be left on him."
Cade hurried to stop him.
"Don't joke like that, or I'll tell Optimus Prime."
Ironhide had no choice but to put away his weapon.
"You're really not funny at all, Cade. Look at the expression on this kid's face. I think he's not an ordinary person. Very few people would have this expression when facing my cannon."
At this moment, Ivan Vanko had a fanatical look on his face, staring at the iron sheet intently.
"Is he the one who improved my powered exoskeleton? This... This is simply a miracle of mechanical engineering!" He almost jumped up, grabbed Cade's shoulders and asked, "Where did you find him? Is this alien life?"
"Calm down... You need to calm down... Ivan, we can be easily seen by passers-by here, let's go to another place first." Cade looked around vigilantly: "Ironhide, change back to car form."
Sitting in the car, Ivan Vanko struggled to calm himself down.
"I want to join you!"
"Aren't you already working in the studio?"
Cade was too lazy to pretend, so he simply let go of the steering wheel and let Ironhide drive himself.
"I mean to really join!" Ivan directly revealed his trump card: "I have the technology of the Ark Reaction Ring, which is definitely not inferior to the one Tony Stark is using now."
Cade's face immediately turned serious. This was not something to be joked about.
"Ark Reaction Ring? That thing is indeed very magical. Even Cybertron doesn't have such a powerful and perfect energy source."
Ironhide said curiously. After invading the Internet on Earth, the Autobots knew everything about Earth. They were also very shocked when they learned about the existence of the Ark Reaction Ring.
The design of the Ark Reaction Ring is inspired by the Cosmic Cube, and the technology it contains is incomparable to Cybertron technology.
"How did you get this technology? Even for the giant Ark reactor ring, only senior personnel of Stark Industries know the information."
Cade questioned, he was somewhat concerned about the technological source of the Ark's reaction ring.
"It's simple, because the Ark Reactor was invented by my father and Howard Stark together. However, Howard expelled my father from Stark Industries in order to enjoy this great honor alone."
Ivan said in a tone full of hatred.
"This plot is very cliché, so you want revenge on Stark Industries?"
The sound of ironhide rang out.
"Of course, I want revenge on Tony Stark."
Ivan Vanko did not hide his hatred. He knew that for these robots that needed energy to drive, the Ark Reaction Ring should be an irresistible existence.
