Ch: 61-70
Chapter 61 Bunny Girl, Fast Chi
Arthur , 2B Miss, and Eve rushed into the house, sticky and needing a quick wash.
They were covered in the giant monster's slime, almost gone.
This also led him to discover the flaw of the portal gun…
The teleportation was too random!
An unknown World, an unknown place, an unknown location…
This was simply an adventure.
Well, Arthur originally wanted an adventure, but he didn't expect to end up directly in a stomach.
This left him traumatized, and he immediately put the portal gun into his system space, tucking it away at the bottom of his chest.
People always thought crossing Worlds was an easy and pleasant thing.
Arthur , however, stepped forward to speak from experience, saying, "Where was it easy? I almost G-ed!"
"Master."
At this moment, Eve's voice sounded from outside.
"What's wrong?"
Arthur opened the door, immediately casting aside his previous displeasure.
He saw Eve, with her graceful curves, had already changed into the Ultimate Bunny Girl nano-suit, which was not meant for outsiders to see.
Clearly, to bring Swift, she had made up her mind.
Arthur naturally wouldn't refuse the benefits from his personal maid.
Although Eve was still a bit shy, Arthur directly pulled her in.
With a "bang," the door closing made 2B Miss outside feel as if she was in a different World.
At this moment, Eve was the soft, sweet little cake!
"Master!"
Eve whispered, "Swift?"
"Swift will appear soon."
Arthur said, he had already exchanged for Swift's design blueprint.
Swift's price was the same as Eve's, which was a drop in the bucket for Arthur now.
Among the androids, the more expensive ones were the later models.
For example, No. 18, her strength was too abnormal, so her price naturally soared.
"But before that, Eve, you need to show yourself."
Arthur gave the initiative to Eve.
Fortunately, Eve wasn't a naive girl, recalling the dances she had seen online during this time…
She started to dance!
"Indeed, only androids can fulfill all desires."
Arthur waited until Eve finished dancing, then he could no longer hold back.
Especially since Eve wasn't as heavy as 2B Miss.
"Tsk, this nano-suit is really good, it tears with a grab and can automatically repair itself."
...
"Swift!"
In the evening, Swift finally 'appeared'.
She walked out of a white light.
Swift wore the black tight nano-suit of the Seventh Airborne Squad Captain, with yellow stripes that perfectly showcased her curves.
Swift's figure was not as extreme as Eve's, but leaned towards a normal female build.
She also had long, smooth black hair, perfect features and face; her appearance was actually more beautiful.
Swift was beautiful, Eve was enduringly beautiful.
Compared to them, Swift was like the perfect, long-haired, straight-haired girlfriend.
Moreover, she had a resilient personality, excellent combat power, and was also Eve's Captain.
Eve immediately threw herself onto Swift, who didn't expect her to do this and for a moment didn't know where to put her hands.
Her mind was very confused, recalling many things.
Wasn't she infected by the Nier and killed by Eve?
How…
She looked at Arthur , and with a somewhat regal tone, called out, "Master."
Compared to Eve's occasional hesitation, Swift was always very resolute.
Arthur walked over and directly embraced both of them.
They were both his little cakes.
However, Arthur could also tell that Eve and Swift had a lot to say, so he had Eve take Swift to another room.
It was clear that Eve was no longer so melancholic.
...
The next day, Swift barely slept all night, frantically absorbing knowledge about this Earth.
She and Eve stood by the window, looking at the splendor of Earth, no longer missing their other World.
She didn't want to be a savior, even if her existence, like Eve's, was to eliminate the Nier.
But what if this World had no Nier?
She should start a brand new life!
Therefore, with a more positive attitude than Eve, she followed Arthur to understand this World.
Sitting in the bumblebee's driver's seat, she appeared to be driving, but Swift's face was almost pressed against the glass.
Although she had seen high technology in the colonization zone, she had never seen the lifestyle of Earthlings.
"So, this is what human life is like."
A smile appeared on Swift's face: "Beautiful, relaxed."
Eve and the others didn't have such sentiments; they were already tired of it.
Upon arriving at the company, Arthur also received some 'good news'.
Tony Stark was under immense pressure within Stark Industries.
Stark Industries was not Tony Stark's sole domain.
Especially after Obadiah Stane stopped supporting Tony Stark, other shareholders began to challenge him.
With so many shareholders, Tony Stark, who lacked absolute controlling power, was also in a difficult position.
News of his arguments with people at the shareholders' meeting and their unpleasant dispersal spread.
Stark Industries' stock became even more unstoppable.
Arthur also felt the time was right.
"Red Queen, keep an eye on the small shareholders who want to sell their shares."
These small shareholders' shares were not scattered shares; they could only enjoy dividends annually.
But even so, this was a stable source.
But that was before.
Now, the situation at Stark Industries made these small shareholders feel insecure, and some already wanted to 'exit'.
This was also the situation Tony Stark wanted to see.
He didn't make decisions on a whim; he wanted to force others out, then buy back the shares and gain 'absolute control'.
In the current situation, things would only change when Tony Stark researched new energy.
And Tony Stark was confident that he would find new ways to make money, even without weapons.
This was a gamble.
But for small shareholders, they didn't need to gamble.
Watching the value of their shares drop lower and lower, their hearts were bleeding!
At this time, they were hoping for a'sucker' like Arthur to take over.
...
"Sir, You-Know-Who has already acquired over four percent of Stark Industries' shares, almost all the shares held by the small shareholders."
A few days later, Tony Stark received this news.
After Jarvis finished speaking, Tony was a bit shocked: "Who?"
He hadn't even made a move on these small shareholders yet…
His current target was Obadiah Stane.
Tony Stark was no fool.
He didn't believe such a bizarre kidnapping could happen without an inside man.
Moreover, when he returned, Arthur had joked, "Maybe there's a traitor in Stark Industries?"
The sensitive Tony Stark took it to heart.
After returning, he conducted an investigation and set his sights on Obadiah Stane.
It was simply that Obadiah Stane had been too active during his disappearance.
Therefore, he had already begun to plan against Obadiah.
This resulted in the small shareholders' shares being'stolen'.
"I apologize, sir, I cannot find the other party."
Hearing Jarvis's words, Tony Stark smiled.
"Isn't that already the answer?"
"Besides Arthur , that bitch, who else has this capability?"
Chapter 62: Anti-Tony Stark Alliance
Today was the weekend.
Gwen Stacy reminded Arthur again that the Osborn Group had prepared a banquet, inviting many New York celebrities.
For Norman Osborn, this was, firstly, to show his determination to run for office, and secondly, to seek sponsorship…
To this end, Norman Osborn even specially prepared a treasure, a very valuable necklace, to attract attention.
"Dr. Otto was also invited by the Osborn Group."
"Dr. Otto?"
Arthur nodded. Before leaving work, he proactively went to find Dr. Otto.
"Otto."
Arthur hugged the incredibly busy Dr. Otto.
Dr. Otto was a very pure person; a scientist like him held more noble ideals, unlike a capitalist like Norman Osborn.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the two went their separate ways.
But their lives were also completely different.
Norman Osborn achieved great success.
Dr. Otto, however, remained poor; if Arthur hadn't helped him, he might not even have had anyone investing in his laboratory now.
Therefore, he was always very grateful to Arthur .
Arthur naturally trusted him greatly, with key technologies only held by a few of them.
"The Osborn Group invited you to attend the banquet."
After exchanging pleasantries, Arthur said.
Indeed, Dr. Otto was visibly uncomfortable.
"I declined for you."
So, Arthur said.
"Thank you."
Dr. Otto sighed, "I don't want to see Norman in his glory."
This made Arthur smile and pat his arm: "Otto, you are much more glorious than him now. Who doesn't know your name?"
These words made Dr. Otto very happy: "This is all thanks to you."
"No, no, no."
Arthur shook his head: "Without you, it wouldn't have reached this level."
The two exchanged some commercial flattery, and Dr. Otto's mood improved significantly.
Success clears many obstacles.
Some conflicts, as Dr. Otto also achieved success, he no longer valued them as much.
Let it all pass.
If Dr. Otto were still destitute now… then he certainly wouldn't be so magnanimous.
Instead, he would believe that his misery was all caused by Norman Osborn.
One can only say that the taste of success is indeed wonderful.
In the evening, Arthur was sandwiched in the middle of the back seat by Eve and 2B, while Swift sat in the passenger seat.
bumblebee drove steadily, and soon arrived outside the hotel owned by the Osborn Group.
By this time, many people had already arrived; as Gwen said, they were all New York celebrities.
And each one brought a female companion, arriving in luxury cars.
bumblebee among them… seemed a bit conspicuous.
It was the only yellow one, and it wasn't a luxury car, but… a Camaro?
The gazes of passersby made bumblebee feel a sense of disdain.
It even wanted to drive around and transform into a Rolls-Royce.
"I should have brought a female companion."
Seeing this situation, Arthur immediately felt some regret.
He should have invited Gwen earlier.
To this, Swift calmly arranged: "Master, Eve will accompany you inside."
"Eve, remember to protect Master well. 2B and I will observe from outside."
Here it was, a female companion.
For the banquet, they had specifically changed into formal wear beforehand.
Soon, it was their turn. bumblebee drove over, Arthur got out of the car, and then walked out holding Eve's hand.
Eve naturally took Arthur 's arm, appearing graceful and poised.
This was like walking a red carpet; there were many reporters outside the hotel taking photos, and they naturally wouldn't miss Arthur .
Arthur did not try to steal the show, merely stating that he would support Norman Osborn, and then took Eve inside.
Upon entering the banquet, Arthur felt dazzled.
No wonder everyone liked attending such banquets.
New York socialites had all gathered here, wearing various cut-out dresses, showcasing their fair skin and long legs, truly a display of 'weaponry'.
Even the arranged waitresses were dressed in uniforms, catching the eye.
Arthur felt he was starting to like women in formal dresses.
That feeling of being elegant yet charming, sexy yet not vulgar.
Plus its figure-hugging nature…
Of course, not everyone could wear them.
First, one needed a good figure.
So Arthur couldn't help but admire these socialites; they spent their days in the gym, and this attitude towards 'work' was indeed a form of dedication.
"Li!"
At this moment, Norman Osborn warmly greeted him.
"Norman!"
Arthur hugged him, still unaccustomed to the enthusiasm of Westerners.
It would be great if it was a woman he was hugging.
"Where's Otto?"
Norman Osborn asked.
"He's a bit busy."
Arthur said casually.
"Never mind."
Norman Osborn replied, then introduced the person beside him.
Arthur had seen her on television.
The recently famous'Silver Sable', Silver Sablinova, in New York.
At this time, Silver Sable was also wearing a shimmering white form-fitting long dress, which perfectly accentuated her figure, while the high slits on both sides, to some extent, would not hinder her movements.
Arthur even suspected that this sister could have slits up to her waist when she was younger!
"Arthur ."
"Silver."
The two shook hands.
Norman Osborn smiled: "Silver and her security team have been protecting me and have played a huge role, allowing me not to worry about certain threats."
"I saw your performance, it was impressive."
Arthur also said.
As a woman, to possess such powerful strength was indeed not easy.
"Thank you."
Silver seemed a bit aloof and quickly released Arthur 's hand.
Arthur had no lingering thoughts.
Her hand wasn't soft like other women's; instead, it was like Maria Hill's.
Holding it, he could even feel the calluses on her palm.
It was clear she had been playing with guns for many years.
If one were to be grabbed by her gun, who could endure it?
As the host of the banquet, Norman Osborn did not chat much longer with Arthur .
As Arthur walked in with Eve, a person immediately came over.
A white man wearing glasses, around thirty or forty years old, not tall, but rather thin and small.
"Hi, Arthur , I've always heard legends about you, and I finally get to meet you in person."
"If you're really going to compete with Tony Stark, you must kick his ass hard!"
Undoubtedly, the one who said this was Justin Hammer.
Justin Hammer considered himself Tony Stark's 'lifelong enemy'.
They both dealt in weapons, and they were major competitors.
Therefore, he regarded Tony Stark as an enemy.
But unfortunately…
Tony Stark only saw him as a Joker.
Now, with Arthur 's appearance, Tony Stark had repeatedly lost his composure.
This was simply Justin Hammer's dream self; Arthur was like his internet mouthpiece…
"Hello."
Arthur had no other thoughts about him; Hammer Group was also a large enterprise, and military industry was just one of its aspects.
Thus, the two exchanged enthusiastic words, at least much better than how Tony Stark treated him.
For a moment, Justin Hammer felt that Arthur and he were on the same front.
They were both part of the Anti-Tony Stark Alliance!
Chapter 63 Catwoman? Black Cat!
"Huh, why is this guy here?"
Justin Hammer, who had been delighted, immediately chuckled, "This is interesting."
Arthur also followed his gaze.
He saw a man two meters tall, extremely burly, who, even in a suit, still looked like a muscular brute, bulging in all the right places.
Even Eve tightened her grip on his arm.
Kingpin.
He looked very stout, like an ancient general with 'muscle wrapped in fat'.
It was precisely because he didn't train for dead strength that he could hit Batman with a single punch and leave him unable to recover.
Kingpin arrived in front of Norman Osborn, who was more than a head shorter than him.
But even so, Norman Osborn still wore a 'big shot' smile, his aura completely unfazed.
Everyone looked over, knowing that this was the showdown for this year's election.
The other candidates were far too inferior compared to these two.
Mainly, their 'financial power' was too far apart.
One controlled both the underworld and the legitimate World, and the other commanded the Osborn Group; neither was short on money.
Who else could compete?
Unless Tony Stark high-profilely announced his candidacy, no one could win.
But how could Tony Stark possibly care for the position of New York City mayor?
Making him the U.S. President would be more fitting!
"Welcome."
Norman Osborn, being the Master, showed his magnanimity.
Kingpin was not arrogant either, and they began to converse.
Their voices were low, and with the music playing, it was hard to hear them clearly.
Arthur , however, heard them distinctly.
Kingpin was congratulating Norman Osborn, seemingly showing weakness?
This made Norman Osborn feel a little smug.
Afterward, Kingpin left directly.
He seemed to have just come to say hello.
Arthur was about to remind Norman when he saw Norman Osborn immediately call for Silver Sable, telling her people to be careful and vigilant.
Against a viper like Kingpin, no one could be careless.
What was terrifying about Kingpin was not his martial prowess or wealth, but that he possessed these while also having a brain.
Norman Osborn didn't dwell on it but began the banquet.
For New York socialites, attending such a banquet wasn't about having fun.
It was about meeting people.
Of course, after expanding one's network, taking a glamorous socialite home and spending the night lavishly would be even better.
And the socialites also displayed their charm, hoping to hook up with a rich man and rise to prominence overnight.
In this World, everyone was striving to make their lives better.
It was just that their directions of effort were different...
Their looks were the source of the socialites' confidence.
Many people came to greet Arthur , wanting to get to know him.
Men and women, both.
In all of New York, he was as famous as Tony Stark, equally sought after.
Eve, meanwhile, stayed by Arthur 's side.
Thus, some complained that she didn't act like a female companion but more like a bodyguard.
Soon, everyone gathered, and the lights suddenly converged on the stage.
Norman Osborn, in a suit, stood on the stage and began to thank everyone for coming.
As a successful businessman, what he understood best was 'painting a picture'.
Making the people present feel that if they chose to support him, they would receive generous returns.
This was the operating model of America: give and take.
You help me campaign, I give you support.
Indeed, this piqued the interest of many.
After all, from every perspective, Norman Osborn had a greater chance of winning against Kingpin.
"Ladies and gentlemen, for this banquet, I have specially brought the 'Queen' of the jewelry World!"
Norman Osborn said with a smile, "I wonder which beautiful lady will receive the desired jewelry?"
A display stand appeared on the stage, covered with a black cloth.
As Norman Osborn opened it, a diamond-studded necklace appeared inside.
Arthur was not interested in this, but the women were.
Fortunately, he didn't bring a woman.
Oh no, Eve wasn't interested either, because she had enough jewelry.
Arthur had given her a pile, enough to wear a different one every day.
This also made Eve spend more time on her appearance.
Norman Osborn planned to use this jewelry to push the atmosphere of the banquet to its peak.
Then, with some publicity, he would become even more famous in New York.
"Bang!"
Just as Norman was feeling excited, the hotel lights suddenly went out.
"What's going on?"
The entire banquet plunged into darkness, and Eve immediately protected Arthur .
"Master, let's go to the side first."
She was not affected by the darkness and led Arthur to a corner.
Because the banquet was already somewhat chaotic at this point.
It proved that in the face of the terror of darkness, even these elites did not perform much better than ordinary people.
Many so-called 'elites' were just packaged products.
Norman Osborn did not panic; instead, he shouted loudly, "Don't panic, it's most likely a power outage!"
Fortunately, it was only a few seconds; Arthur hadn't even reached the corner when the lights came back on.
"Buzz!"
Is it not said that for human civilization, the most important things are Fire and Light?
With the light, these 'human-like' elites immediately returned to normal, as if it wasn't them who had been shouting just now.
But soon, another gasp was heard.
"Where's the necklace?"
Norman Osborn, standing on the stage, was stunned, then turned his head to look.
He saw that the glass of the display stand had been cut into a perfect circle, and the necklace inside had simply vanished!
But it wasn't entirely gone; someone spotted the thief.
Eve looked directly up at the sky, and another person was Silver Sable.
"There's a thief!"
Silver Sable immediately shouted, telling people to protect Norman Osborn, while she herself quickly ran to the side.
Everyone also looked up, but only saw a black silhouette.
"Catwoman?"
Arthur asked curiously, and Justin Hammer at his side twitched his lips: "It's Black Cat."
He looked at Arthur , wondering if Arthur read too many DC comics?
He didn't know the famous 'Black Cat' of New York?
Of course, in terms of appearance and other aspects, DC Comics' Catwoman indeed resembled Black Cat, but...
DC was comics, but Black Cat was a real-life Master thief!
So, the case was solved!
In this World, Catwoman copied Black Cat!
"Is this Kingpin's doing?"
Arthur came before Norman, who was protected by layers of Silver Sable International Security personnel.
"I don't know."
Norman Osborn shook his head.
Undoubtedly, Black Cat's actions not only made it impossible for the banquet to continue.
It also affected Norman Osborn's reputation.
So, Norman Osborn looked at Arthur and said, "Li, help me, get the item back!"
"Okay."
Arthur didn't say much; now the two were collaborators, in the same boat.
Only if Norman Osborn became the Mayor of New York could Future Technology Company receive policy support.
So, Arthur took Eve and left through the back door, immediately calling Red Queen.
Chapter 64 Women Fighting
It's the 21st century, how do we chase a thief?
Of course, with artificial intelligence.
No matter where she runs, Red Queen can catch her.
As long as she uses electronic tools and is within the range of New York, no matter how she runs, she can't escape.
Arthur and Eve returned to the car; Swift and 2B were still sitting there.
Without needing to say much, bumblebee started on its own.
Red Queen also found the key information.
Black Cat, real name Felicia Hardy.
This was deduced by Red Queen through big data; as long as a trace is left, there's nowhere to hide from artificial intelligence.
However, Felicia is a second-generation thief; the first generation was her father, the famous New YorkMaster thief, the Cat.
This can be considered an inheritance...
And why is it said that Black Cat is so similar to Catwoman?
They both like pearl necklaces and jewelry, and they do it to rob the rich and help the poor.
It can be said that she is also a complex woman.
It seems no woman is simple...
Black Cat Felicia's resume is basically all about theft.
From this perspective, she indeed has a lot of talent.
Arthur quickly found a place.
"She actually studied at Empire State University..."
This university really produces talent.
Gwen and Black Cat Felicia are alumni!
"Master, they've stopped."
At this moment, Red Queen reminded him.
"They?"
bumblebee's speed wasn't slow, but it couldn't catch up.
This was because Black Cat directly shuttled between buildings, while bumblebee had to consider road conditions...
But at this moment, Arthur looked at the screen and found that Black Cat had already been caught up to and was fighting.
"Silver Sable?"
Arthur saw the white figure that appeared and immediately recognized her.
It was Silver Sable, whom he had just greeted.
They say the rich rely on technology, and the poor rely on mutation.
The abilities of these two women were trained by themselves, plus some small equipment, they achieved this effect.
Of course, this indeed has technological content.
On the screen, two figures were distinct; Silver Sable was in a white uniform, very conspicuous in the dark.
Black Cat Felicia was in a black catsuit, but her hair color, like Silver Sable's, was long silver-white hair.
When they started fighting, it was like the two sisters of Black and White Impermanence.
Arthur liked watching women fight the most.
Mainly because women like to use their legs when fighting, and long legs swinging around look very elegant.
Just like now, both women were excellent with their legs; Arthur felt they could crush a person.
"Master, should I go help her?"
Eve asked.
This reminded Swift, and she immediately said, "I'll go; I haven't moved in a while."
According to the setting, Swift is stronger than Eve.
Because Swift is the Captain and was responsible for training Eve.
Of course, later, Eve's growth speed was astonishing, so it's hard to say.
They both looked at Arthur .
Arthur nodded: "The most important thing is the necklace; Black Cat Felicia can be ignored."
It's easy to find her, so the important thing is the necklace.
According to Norman Osborn, it's worth a lot of money.
Swift was very happy and immediately jumped out of the car.
The moment she jumped down, her clothes transformed into a black tight-fitting nano-suit.
This was her Captain's uniform, with yellow lines accentuating her body curves.
Although not as astonishing as Eve's figure, it was also a perfect figure.
This is normal; their bodies were all created by the artificial intelligence 'Mothers Domain'.
This proves that the aesthetic of artificial intelligence is actually quite similar to that of normal people.
Swift did not take the stairs but directly started jumping up.
She was like a Master climber, very agile.
"Bang!"
Just then, a gunshot came from the rooftop.
Arthur turned his head and saw that Silver Sable couldn't help but open fire.
Black Cat refused to hand over the item, which infuriated Silver Sable.
Having the item stolen under the heavy guard of her security group, wasn't this slapping her in the face in front of Norman Osborn?
She was not a soft-hearted person to begin with and directly used her gun.
And the terrifying thing was that Silver Sable's marksmanship was excellent; she could shoot from almost any posture, even while wearing high heels, which stunned Arthur .
One might even think she was an Angel Hunter Witch?
Black Cat Felicia was no pushover either; she possessed extraordinary balance and flexibility, and although she didn't have spider-sense, she still dodged the bullets.
Black Cat Felicia weaved and dodged, even shaking her head lightly and taunting, "You shoot when you can't win?"
And at this moment, Swift also climbed up.
"Who are you?"
Black Cat asked in surprise.
"Hand over what you stole."
Swift said very coldly.
She had a cold and aloof older sister's face, coupled with her naturally calm personality, making her appear emotionless.
Black Cat Felicia smiled, took the necklace in her hand, and held it up in front of the two.
"There's only one necklace, but there are two of you."
Silver Sable looked at Swift.
She didn't expect another person to appear.
Swift said decisively, "Give her the necklace; I came here by Master's order."
This made Silver Sable narrow her eyes; it seemed they were allies.
"What if I don't?"
Black Cat Felicia felt it wasn't fun anymore and put the necklace away.
Swift, meanwhile, took off her hair clip and took out her weapon: "Then I won't let you go."
Her weapon, like Eve's, was the one-handed sword 'Blood Blade'.
This was new technology researched by Mothers Domain; when not in use, it could transform into a hair clip.
2B watched with much envy; if she wanted to use a weapon, she had to 'carry' it on her back.
But that was too strange in society, so she couldn't take it out easily.
"How boring!"
Black Cat Felicia said immediately when she saw one with a sword and the other with a gun.
She turned around, accelerated, and directly performed a 'leap of faith' downwards.
If it were an ordinary person, they would be splattered.
But Felicia had a grappling hook with a built-in ejection device.
So she, like Batman, began to shuttle between buildings.
Seeing this, Swift immediately jumped down as well.
She performed consecutive jumps in the air, then a single traverse allowed her to cross the building.
"I..."
Silver Sable was completely stunned.
Now, only she was left standing on the rooftop; she dared not jump.
Is this New York, a place teeming with talent?
...
"Swift, come back quickly!"
Swift was about to catch up to Black Cat when she heard Arthur 's voice and could only stop and walk back.
"What's wrong?"
She was a bit confused.
It would be easy for her to catch up to Black Cat, and she believed she could defeat Black Cat.
After all, no matter what, Black Cat Felicia was just a normal human.
Arthur then said, "Norman Osborn has been captured. Red Queen, track Black Cat and find her hiding place."
"Understood."
"Swift, come back; we need to hurry over."
Arthur instructed, and the screen had already turned into a 'live broadcast'.
The person hanging was Norman Osborn.
Chapter 65 Norman Osborn's Acting
Not long after Silver Sable left, Norman Osborn, naturally, was not foolish; he knew it was best to return to a safe place at such a time.
So, he had Silver Sable International Security personnel escort him back to Osborn Group.
As expected, something really did happen.
They were ambushed halfway, and the opponents were very professional, using a lot of equipment.
In an instant, Norman Osborn knew who it was.
Kingpin!
Although Kingpin did not appear, where there is suspicion, there is guilt, and Kingpin was the only one Norman Osborn could suspect.
Such methods are not very common in America.
Everyone has money and ability.
If it doesn't succeed, aren't they afraid of others' retaliation?
So, when such a method is used, it means it must succeed.
Apparently, Kingpin had also reached a point where he had no choice but to use such methods.
Moreover, Kingpin did not dare to casually kill Norman Osborn.
Norman Osborn was just captured.
He was instantly taken into the air.
Norman Osborn was a bit panicked, but he didn't shout; instead, he looked at the person who grabbed him and said, "Vulture, what do you want? What he can give you, I can also give!"
"Hehehe!"
Vulture sneered.
Vulture, whose real name is Adrian Toomes, was originally an electronic engineer who always had a dream of flying.
He conducted countless experiments, wanting to create wings like a bird's.
So he invented this flight suit, and for some reason, his temperament changed drastically, and he began to retaliate against society.
To put it bluntly, it was still because of a lack of money.
Many superheroes also lack money, but they held onto their moral bottom line and did not become bad guys.
"Norman, the show has just begun, why are you scared already?"
Vulture grabbed Norman Osborn and continued to fly upwards.
Norman did not dare to make any moves; if he fell like this, he would be finished.
"Where are you taking me?"
Norman asked, forcing himself to remain calm.
"Taking you to where you should go."
Vulture only replied.
Moreover, he directly took out his phone and started a live broadcast.
Although the picture quality was blurry and the internet speed was slow at this time, it was still possible to see that this was Norman Osborn.
"What's going on? Is this Norman Osborn?"
"Yes, I've seen him outside the Osborn Group!"
"What's happening? Was he kidnapped?"
"Wow, rich people also get scared at times like this, hahahaha!"
"..."
Vulture was very satisfied with the situation and directly took Norman Osborn to the top of the Future Technology Company building.
Arthur , who was watching the live broadcast, also cursed when he saw this scene.
If Norman Osborn really had an accident on top of his own company building, that would be big trouble.
But there was nothing he could do; after all, the Osborn Group was protected layer by layer.
Vulture also didn't dare to approach casually.
So he followed Kingpin's instructions and came to the Future Technology Company building.
This company supports Norman Osborn!
Moreover, this company doesn't seem to pose any threat; what can artificial intelligence do to him?
Upon reaching the rooftop, Vulture hung Norman Osborn upside down over the edge; if he let go, Norman Osborn would fall.
Norman Osborn looked up and saw the ground was very far away; if he fell...
He swallowed.
At this moment, Vulture also laughed loudly: "Norman, look, everyone in the live stream is watching you, let me see how many viewers there are..."
"Wow, it's already over ten thousand!"
"Today is the moment to witness your cowardice!"
As Vulture spoke, he loosened the rope.
Norman Osborn immediately'slipped' for a certain distance.
This feeling of weightlessness made Norman Osborn unable to hold back any longer, and he screamed out.
"No!"
"Vulture, what exactly do you want to do?"
A look of panic finally appeared on Norman Osborn's face.
He knew this was happening under the eyes of countless people in the live stream, but he was about to break.
No one fears Death!
"I want to ruin your reputation!"
Vulture laughed loudly.
This was Kingpin's scheme.
He didn't dare to truly kill Norman Osborn, but wanting a person's Death isn't just physical Death...
There's also spiritual Death and social Death!
If all of New York saw Norman Osborn's cowardly side, how could he still run for mayor?
No one would like a coward!
"No!"
Norman Osborn shouted, the fear in his heart growing deeper.
But... he was a successful businessman, a guy who aspired to become a politician in America.
In America, you can be a fool, you can be crazy, you can be incompetent, you can be unskilled!
But you cannot lack acting skills!
Norman Osborn forcibly calmed down; his suit was already wrinkled by the evening breeze, and his hair was disheveled.
But he suddenly looked at the camera and said, "Dear New York City citizens, I am Norman Osborn, and as you can see, I am currently suffering a malicious attack from my competitor."
"No matter who he is, or what he wants to do, it's all to prevent me from becoming mayor, from bringing change to New York, from making New York better, from making New York great again!"
"I will never compromise, never!"
At this moment, Norman Osborn appeared somewhat hysterical, but this spirit shocked everyone in the live stream.
"I declare that my vote will go to Norman Osborn; he is a real man!"
"Not afraid under these circumstances, is there anyone braver than this?"
"Make New York great again!"
"Does anyone think this is too fake? Like Norman Osborn directed and acted it himself!"
"Brother, would you hang yourself on the top of a building if you were directing and acting it yourself?"
"..."
As Norman Osborn's 'performance' unfolded, the sentiment in the live stream instantly changed.
Originally, they were just watching him for entertainment, but who would have thought he would put on a show under such circumstances!
Arthur also didn't expect it, which made him realize even more that Norman had something special about him.
Indeed, capitalists are never ordinary people!
"Shut up!"
Vulture was clearly flustered.
Kingpin had told him to discredit Norman Osborn, but who would have thought Norman Osborn not only wasn't scared but also performed exceptionally well.
"Norman, if you're not afraid for yourself, you should at least think of your descendants!"
Vulture immediately said.
Norman Osborn heard this and was not afraid; he even looked at the camera and said, "Don't do this, I can announce my withdrawal from the election, but you cannot lay a hand on my son.
To me, family is more important than anything!"
This was still an act, spoken for the people in the live stream to hear.
Because in America, the concept of family is actually very important.
Not everyone is a 'little Black' who grew up with 'Daddy Where Did You Go?'.
As expected, Norman Osborn's reputation soared.
Kingpin, who was watching the live broadcast, was furious.
He immediately connected with Vulture and roared, "What are you doing, you idiot?"
But Vulture was not his subordinate.
Vulture was hired by Kingpin with money; originally, Bullseye should have done this, but Bullseye was dead!
Therefore, Vulture also got angry.
Chapter 66 Levi just has a mouth
bumblebee sped all the way to the company building.
Many people were already 'eating melon'.
The police officers who rushed over could do nothing at all.
They were too few in number, only able to barely maintain order and tell people not to stand below and watch the show, to be careful of falling debris…
Even the employees of the nearby Stark Industries came out to watch the show.
Arthur finally understood.
Who said there's no overtime in the capitalist World?
Were these employees 'refreshed' by the World itself?
"Red Queen, what's the situation now?"
Arthur asked, "How do we stop him?"
"Ghost Spider has already arrived."
Red Queen said, "I'm already calculating how to save him."
Gwen happened to be on patrol outside, and the moment she received the news, she immediately rushed over.
Arthur looked up and saw a figure pressed against the glass, then directly stepping on the glass with great speed, running towards the rooftop.
During this, she also used webs as assistance, launching herself up like a human arrow.
She leaped onto the rooftop.
Gwen focused her eyes and saw the agitated Vulture.
She had fought Vulture a few times before and knew how troublesome he was.
Vulture was excitedly shouting, "Shut up, I'm not your subordinate, you have no right to command me!"
He seemed completely unprepared.
So, Gwen directly delivered a flying kick.
"Bang!"
Vulture reacted quickly, not only dodging but also loosening his grip.
"Ah!!"
The sudden weightlessness made Norman Osborn scream.
Fortunately, Vulture didn't let go; he grabbed him and laughed loudly, "If you come any closer, I'll throw him down."
"And I'll also let everyone know who made me do this!"
He directly threatened both of them.
Norman Osborn knew he was talking to Kingpin, but he didn't shout it out.
Once Kingpin's name was shouted, he would be even more doomed.
Kingpin was as nervous as Norman at this moment; he hadn't expected Vulture to suddenly go crazy.
However, he was also thinking about what to do next if Norman Osborn was really killed.
A dead person cannot retaliate.
Once Norman Osborn died, his allies would also disperse.
Dead people have no value!
Therefore, Kingpin realized that besides a little trouble for himself, Norman Osborn's death might be better for him.
So, Kingpin suddenly fell silent.
But Gwen didn't; Gwen immediately raised her hand and said, "Don't!"
"You put him down, and all of this will be as if it never happened!"
As she spoke, Gwen also moved away, telling Vulture not to get agitated.
"Vulture, you can have anything you want."
Norman Osborn also said.
And Vulture was somewhat swayed; he asked, "What should I do?"
Kingpin replied, "You've already failed, you trash!"
Kingpin was deliberately provoking him, and sure enough, Vulture suddenly let go.
"You bastard!"
He furiously cursed Kingpin, but Norman Osborn also fell.
"No!"
Gwen immediately shot out a web, but she was a step too slow.
The height of hundreds of meters made Norman's descent very fast.
It seemed no one could save him.
Kingpin also showed a smile.
Just then, a pane of glass was suddenly shattered.
"Bang!"
A mechanical arm stretched out from inside, firmly grabbing Norman Osborn.
Although Norman Osborn was in some pain, he survived.
He opened his eyes and saw Dr. Otto wearing sunglasses.
"Otto!"
Norman Osborn was instantly incredibly moved, tears in his eyes: "Thank you, I…"
"No need."
Dr. Otto replied, "I haven't forgiven you, Norman, I just don't want Li's investment to go to waste."
Just before, Red Queen had told him about this matter.
Dr. Otto naturally agreed to help.
Although he also hated Norman Osborn, he had never thought of killing Norman.
And for Arthur , he was willing to save Norman.
For Dr. Otto now, saving Norman was too easy.
…
On the rooftop, Gwen had no more concerns and immediately unleashed a fierce attack on Vulture.
Others also rushed over, such as Silver Sable.
She also realized she had been tricked, so she was very angry.
She directly boarded Silver Sable International's fighter jet, descending from the sky, and joined Gwenin ganging up on Vulture.
Soon, Vulture was subdued.
Kingpin, watching the news, was instantly furious and smashed the TV to pieces.
Not only did this not harm Norman, but it also increased his prestige.
What would he use to run against Norman Osborn now?
Downstairs, Arthur also accepted an interview with reporters.
Since everything was fine, he naturally wanted to capitalize on the buzz.
"The mechanical arm that just caught Norman Osborn was developed by our company…"
"Osborn Group and Future Technology Company are strategic partners!"
"I call on all New Yorkers to cast their precious vote for Norman Osborn; he will lead New York to be even better, making New York great again!"
Arthur shouted this slogan once again in front of the camera.
A slogan that made a certain person's eyes light up.
After the speech, Arthur was satisfied.
Tonight, at least most people in New York were watching this news.
Although the prestige value wasn't much, it was better than nothing.
He had almost completely exploited America's wool, which led to a decreasing increase in prestige.
It seemed difficult for each person to repeatedly generate prestige, because they already knew Arthur , unless Arthur did something that made them 'admire' him again.
Otherwise, prestige would only decrease.
Because people already thought Arthur was very 'awesome'.
Therefore, Arthur had to make his prestige 'World-class'.
Arthur also had ideas on how to do that.
By making World-shocking news.
"Mr. Li."
George Stacy came over to greet him.
"I'm very sorry this happened."
"It's fine."
Arthur shook his head and said, "Norman is my partner, please protect him."
"And… that Ghost Spider."
"I know, I also have a headache with this vigilante; she always acts before us police."
George Stacy said, rubbing his temples.
Arthur understood the situation, George Stacy still didn't know that Ghost Spider was his daughter.
So he said, "No, I think she's very good, maybe you police could cooperate with her?"
"Cooperate with her? No, no, no!"
George Stacy immediately refused: "She looks like a little girl who thinks she can change the Worldwith a little ability; such people are too naive!"
"I'd rather die, jump off the roof, than cooperate with her!"
Watching George Stacy speak so righteously, Arthur didn't say much more.
Mainly because Norman Osborn came down.
"Norman, didn't you wet your pants?"
Arthur walked over.
"…"
Norman Osborn, having survived the ordeal, was originally somewhat relieved, but now he was just speechless.
Arthur was good at everything, except he had a mouth.
No wonder Tony Stark wanted to get into the ring with him!
Chapter 67 Don't contact me anymore. I'm afraid people will misunderstand me.
Norman Osborn's assault had a significant impact.
First, he himself benefited from the misfortune, with his approval rating skyrocketing to sixty percent.
Now everyone understood that with this incident, no one in New York could contend with him.
Even Tony Stark himself might not be his match.
Much less Kingpin.
It could be said that from the moment he was attacked and did not die, he was already a hero in New York.
This was an unchangeable momentum.
Kingpin also vanished, seemingly not preparing to resist.
However, Norman Osborn clearly wouldn't let him off.
As for Arthur , because he saved Norman Osborn's life, their relationship deepened.
The next day, Future Technology Company's building began repairs, especially the damaged windows.
Arthur then brought Swift to replace her artificial spine.
Swift now had two auxiliary spines, divided into upper and lower sections, which respectively improved Swift's speed and regeneration ability.
It must be said, this was also high technology.
However, ordinary people couldn't install such prosthetics; these were adapted for the Airborne Squad.
And there was a gap compared to Sandevistan.
Arthur watched the surgery complete this time and immediately felt a little unable to look directly.
Swift's entire spine was extracted…
Could ordinary people really withstand this kind of surgery?
It would probably require a large amount of anesthetic.
Then, the Sandevistan would be installed.
Arthur had Swift rest underground first, while he returned to his office.
Sitting in the office, he saw the file sent by Hope.
Due to the military contract, the company's production lines were already 'full throttle'.
It was a good thing they obtained the military factory from Stark Industries, otherwise, current productivity simply couldn't keep up.
Even so, the production speed of drones was still a bit behind.
Because they had to be transported from across the ocean and then assembled, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Arthur needed more production lines.
But in America, labor was precisely the most expensive.
Why was manufacturing returning to America an impossible feat?
It was because of the high labor costs.
The production cost of the same item in America would increase many times over.
In the following days, New York seemed to have become 'calm'.
The most crucial thing was that Tony Stark still hadn't appeared.
He seemed to have forgotten about the octagon cage.
Arthur urged him a bit, but Tony Stark in the video was engrossed in 'iron forging'.
"What octagon cage?"
He had a roguish look.
Arthur then said, "Tony, you wouldn't want the World to forget you, would you?"
For people like them, being forgotten by the World was the most unbearable thing.
Both of them were the same; they both loved the spotlight.
Therefore, Arthur held press conferences these past few days, trying to stay active.
But the effect was not significant.
He looked at the online comments; many people were shipping him and Tony Stark.
This made Arthur want to vomit blood.
Could any CP be shipped?
But precisely because of this, without Tony Stark, the traffic plummeted.
Tony Stark indeed became anxious upon hearing this, then looked at the masterpiece he was crafting, and regained his confidence: "Impossible, the World will forget you, but it won't forget me!"
"This time, I will let the whole World know who the true genius is!"
Thinking of the Mark II Iron Man Suit he was about to build.
Tony Stark only felt that Arthur was no longer on his level.
"Don't contact me anymore; I'm afraid people will misunderstand that I'm on your level."
So, Tony Stark said arrogantly.
Arthur :?
This made Arthur unable to hold back: "Tony Stark, that junk you're building isn't even fit to carry my shoes!"
"Both 2B and Eve can easily tear apart that junk suit of yours!"
This also broke Tony Stark's defense.
"You're full of crap! Those inferior androids of yours, I'll take them out one by one with my suit's cannon!"
"Heh heh, they'll just tear you to pieces."
Tony: "If you're so capable, build an Iron Man Suit too!"
Arthur : "If you're so capable, make androids too!"
…
Verbal sparring couldn't satisfy Arthur .
And no matter how he tried to coax him, Tony Stark just wouldn't come out.
Now, the Iron Man Suit was Tony's pride and joy; he wouldn't leave the lab until it was built.
Arthur could only find another way.
His psychological preparation was complete, and he was ready to continue using the portal gun.
This was mainly based on two considerations: first, reputation points.
There were too many 'Great Gods' in the Marvel Universe; Arthur needed to be a bit more low-key.
But going to other Worlds wasn't scary; at worst, he could just run away and never go back.
So he could do whatever he wanted.
The second was to solve the production problem.
Hope indeed had many connections; Future Technology Company filled one part of Stark Industries' void, while the rest was divided among Hammer Industries, Osborn Group, and others.
The fall of one giant would give birth to new giants.
Just like how the dragon slayer eventually becomes the evil dragon.
That void was there, and someone would always fill it.
So this time, Arthur was fully armed and prepared for anything; even if he appeared inside a Kaiju's belly again, nothing would happen.
He brought almost everything he could, especially weapons.
And he also had three bodyguards!
At this moment, the four stood by the wall, and Arthur reached out to open the protective shield.
Rick Sanchez's black technology could withstand a lot of damage; ordinary bullets and lasers couldn't harm him.
"Bang!"
A blob of green goo appeared.
"Master, let's go in first."
Swift quickly stopped Arthur , then had Eve scout ahead.
Both Eve and Swift were wearing the Seventh Airborne Squad's nanosuits and holding Blood Blades.
Then Eve nodded, entering with a brave expression.
After a while, Eve returned, at least proving it was relatively safe.
However, Eve's unruffled face still showed some surprise.
"Master, there's a Kaiju over there."
Another Kaiju?
Arthur was speechless; he wasn't Ultraman, was he?
…
Hong Kong, Dome Base.
Because of the approaching Kaiju, alarms blared throughout the city, and people outside fled into the underground tunnels.
Among the crowd, only one man and three women were special; not only did they not run, but they actually headed towards the coast.
But at this time, no one paid attention to them.
Arthur looked at the familiar words, feeling a sense of familiarity with everything.
"This is a Kaiju?"
"Oh my goodness, even an Alpha Kaiju wouldn't be half as big as this Kaiju."
Soon, they arrived at the shore, found a high vantage point, and saw the Kaiju Eve had mentioned.
It was hundreds of meters long, incredibly massive, and looked very threatening.
And Arthur knew what it was.
'Kaiju'.
Watching the ferocious Kaiju slowly approach the shore, the entire shore was already deserted.
And a Jaeger also went directly towards the Kaiju.
"This is the 'Pacific Rim' World."
Arthur was already thinking about how he would 'make a name' for himself in this World.
Chapter 68 I'm Just Too Kind
In 2013, the unclassified Kaiju "Axehead" (also known as the Infiltrator) landed in San Francisco. The U.S. Air Force and the British Royal Air Force pursued it relentlessly for six days without effect.
Finally, three tactical nuclear bombs were used to kill it, but by then it had already flattened three cities, causing millions of casualties.
In 2014, a second Kaiju landed in Batangas Province, Philippines, attacking Manila.
It was later eliminated by the U.S. forces stationed in the Philippines, also using tactical nuclear weapons, but before that, it had destroyed most of downtown Manila, causing tens of thousands of Deaths, and its remains after Death polluted a large area of land. This Kaiju was later named "Chaos."
Subsequently, a third Kaiju appeared, then a fourth.
They all emerged silently from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.
It was not until then that the heads of the World's major powers convened a summit to discuss the problem of combating the Kaiju.
At the conference, based on the proposal of Dr. Jasper Sheffield, the gigantic Jaeger project, "Jaeger Program," was born, specifically designed to combat Kaiju.
Subsequently, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps was established in Hong Kong.
They then developed a human-machine interface system: the Pons System.
Within a few months, the first Jaeger, "Challenger Yukon," was developed, but its pilot died during the experiment due to neural overload.
Through the efforts of Dr. Catherine Lightcap, the "Drift" neural synchronization system for two pilots was successfully developed.
From then on, Jaeger pilots changed from single to two, or even three.
And the Dome Base where Arthur and his team are located is the earliest and largest Jaeger Base in the World.
However, as of today, the Jaeger Program is too expensive, leading some to want to abandon it.
They are preparing a 'Wall of Life' project, intending to replace the Jaeger, but for now, it is just a proposal.
Under the Jaeger's iron fist, this Kaiju was beaten to Death.
Arthur and the others just took a look and felt that this Kaiju was very ordinary.
It could even be said to be very weak.
They were not interested in the Kaiju, but rather in the Jaeger.
This was a red Jaeger, with double fists on its left arm, but it didn't look strange.
This was China's fourth-generation Jaeger, Crimson Typhoon.
"Let's go, I already have an idea."
Arthur found a computer on the street and directly plugged Red Queen into it.
...
China's capital.
"Mr. Li, this Kaiju that invaded Hong Kong has been defeated, but the frequency is getting faster and faster. Now the United Nations is discussing a Wall of Life project."
In a hidden conference room, a dignified old man listened to the report.
Mr. Li's identity was extremely distinguished, and he was also the decision-maker. He snorted coldly: "These foreigners are short-sighted. What's the use of shutting themselves in without military power?"
"It's like a person on the battlefield, if he only carries a shield, how can he counterattack the enemy?"
Hearing Mr. Li's words, everyone else nodded.
At this moment, a voice appeared: "Mr. Li is right."
"Who?"
Everyone present was instantly horrified. Even Mr. Li's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he quickly calmed down.
"May I ask who this friend is? How are you speaking?"
He asked calmly, which Arthur admired greatly.
"Mr. Li doesn't need to worry. My name is Arthur . I'm in Hong Kong, and I just watched Crimson Typhoon and the Kaiju fight up close."
Arthur said with a smile, directly having Red Queen project himself over.
Looking at the screen, Mr. Li's eyes narrowed instantly, looking at the scene behind Arthur ; it was indeed Hong Kong!
Of course, such image transmission was not difficult, but... how did Arthur hack in?
This ability was too abnormal.
"Mr. Li, is it? What do you intend to do?"
Mr. Li asked steadily, signaling to the others with his eyes.
To quickly locate Arthur .
Arthur , however, smiled and said: "Mr. Li doesn't need to worry about me. If I don't want to be discovered by you, you won't be able to discover me."
"The reason I'm meeting Mr. Li in this way is because I don't want to waste time. My time is very precious. Let's put it this way, I'm here to cooperate with you."
Hearing Arthur 's words, Mr. Li stabilized himself slightly: "How do we cooperate?"
"I am just too kind-hearted."
Arthur sighed with emotion: "I don't want to see our compatriots in this World suffer from Kaiju, so I can provide you with technology, including Brain-computer Interface, chips, and other technologies. With Brain-computer Interface, and then undergoing cybernetization, single-person Jaeger piloting can be achieved."
"Of course, I can also provide you with weapons that do not belong to this era."
There was a lot of hidden meaning in Arthur 's words, and Mr. Li naturally understood it.
What did he mean by 'this World'? 'Does not belong to this era'?
Could it be...
His heart skipped a beat, and he exchanged glances with the others.
"Li... May I call you Xiao Li? Perhaps five hundred years ago, we were also one family."
Mr. Li suddenly tried to get closer.
Arthur was not surprised and smiled: "Of course, I also respect you very much."
"Alright then, Xiao Li, since it's a cooperation, what do you need?"
He saw that there were several women behind Arthur , and each one was more beautiful than the last.
"Then I'll be direct."
Arthur smiled: "I need you to help me produce some high-tech items. Of course, you will also benefit."
"If possible, give me more news segments. I don't mind being famous."
Arthur said these things in a joking tone, as this was what he cared about.
This was a new World; no one knew him.
And once he became famous, how much reputation value could he gain?
It should be known that China's population is several times that of America. With such a large population Base, the reputation value would definitely be higher.
This was also why he directly sought cooperation with Mr. Li.
Official power is the strongest!
Of course, Arthur also wanted China in this World to become stronger. Even if it wasn't the same World, Chinese civilization shared the same roots.
This was a cultural identity.
So he provided technology for free, as long as they could help him produce.
Mr. Li naturally wouldn't refuse, but asked: "Xiao Li, shall we meet?"
"No problem, I'll wait for you in Hong Kong."
Arthur nodded.
Subsequently, Mr. Li and the others immediately became busy.
And they did not neglect Arthur and his group, immediately contacting the Hong Kong side to provide convenience for Arthur and his team.
Arthur did not conceal himself, so vehicles quickly arrived, and everyone was respectful towards Arthur .
Subsequently, Arthur proposed to visit the Dome Base.
This was naturally not refused, and they quickly took Arthur and his team to the Dome Base.
The Dome Base is enormous, capable of accommodating six Jaegers.
The Jaeger currently in the Base was Crimson Typhoon, which had just returned from battle and was undergoing emergency repairs.
It can be said that playing with Jaegers is 'money-consuming'; manufacturing costs money, repairs cost money, and once damaged, it's a huge loss!
Chapter 69 This is probably a father beating his son
Li Lao came very quickly; the next day, he brought his team to Xiangjiang.
At Dome Base, Arthur met the amiable Li Lao, dressed in a Tang suit.
"Li Lao."
Arthur was very respectful.
"Little Li."
Li Lao also had a face full of smiles.
For a day, they looked at the technology Arthur had sent over.
The Brain-computer Interface and various cybernetic body technologies astounded their scientific team.
One scientist asserted, "This technology is at least fifty years ahead of current China."
Perhaps even more.
Because the technology of various countries in this World is 'lopsided'.
With the emergence of Kaiju, there was a threat to life, which caused their technology points to be skewed; technologies related to Jaegers advanced by leaps and bounds, while other technologies slowed down.
Of course, if one only looks at Jaeger-related technologies, they definitely surpass those of parallel timelines by a lot.
Therefore, Li Lao became even more attentive to Arthur .
Moreover, the demands Arthur mentioned seemed even easier to him.
What more was there to say when they could get technology for free?
Thus, Arthur , who was suspected of being from 'another World', was simply an Angel.
"Little Li, what do you think of our technology?"
Li Lao asked cordially.
"Very impressive."
Jaegers are a man's romance, and such large Jaegers, even bigger than Gundam.
So, Arthur also liked them very much.
"It's just that I'm a bit confused, is the record of this Kaiju correct?"
Arthur asked.
"Oh?"
Li Lao asked, "Why do you say that?"
"A Kaiju with a height of over a hundred meters, but a weight of only two thousand tons?"
Arthur chuckled, "It's like an adult weighing less than fifty pounds, which makes one feel ridiculous."
"But it is indeed true."
Li Lao also nodded, which was puzzling.
So, Arthur took a sip of tea and chuckled, "A monster I know is also over a hundred meters tall, but weighs a hundred thousand tons."
"..."
Li Lao was shocked and said, "Then what about a Jaeger facing such a monster…"
"It would probably be torn to pieces."
Arthur nodded in response.
This was not a lie; Arthur was referring to the legendary King of Monsters.
Godzilla!
When he saw the data, he felt it was outrageous; compared to Godzilla, this Kaiju was like a child, wasn't it?
Is this really a monster?
If Godzilla fought a Kaiju, it would definitely be like a father beating his son, one strike and no sound.
One must know that the handsome King Kong weighs twenty-five thousand tons, and his height is less than half of Godzilla's!
This Kaiju's weight of two thousand tons…
It makes this thing look like a joke.
"Little Li, are you from another World?"
After taking a sip of tea, Li Lao also got straight to the point.
"That's right."
Arthur nodded, "Li Lao doesn't need to worry about anything else, I'm here to cooperate."
Li Lao chuckled and nodded; naturally, he would not refuse.
But he was very cautious in his heart.
Even if Arthur had no other intentions, what about others from his World?
Would they be tempted by the resources of a World?
But there was no choice; he dared not offend Arthur casually.
At least for now, Arthur 's mastery of technology was too advanced, and he could easily hack into their network…
So, they first discussed matters of cooperation.
Arthur would provide the technology, and they would provide the production lines and such.
What interested Li Lao the most were things like the Brain-computer Interface.
"With these, can a single person really control a Jaeger?"
For the Jaeger program, Jaeger pilots were equally precious.
Every pilot had to undergo several years of training, and they were all the most outstanding members of humanity.
Therefore, in this World, no celebrity had as much influence as Jaeger pilots; they were the true 'big stars'.
However, this was also the most dangerous thing; fighting monsters meant Death could come at any moment.
Arthur chuckled, "If you don't believe me, you can let them try first."
This made Li Lao and the others immediately look at the beautiful women beside Arthur .
Hmm, each one more beautiful than the last.
And also very strange.
But besides that, there was nothing else special.
Arthur chuckled, "Controlling a Jaeger puts immense pressure on neurons, which is why it's difficult for a single person to operate; to put it plainly, their mental strength isn't strong enough."
"But don't worry, this is 2B, she is a combat-type android from the YoRHa unit."
"Android?"
Li Lao's hand trembled slightly.
How many era-transcending technologies did this young man possess?
He was now only grateful that Arthur had no ill intentions, but was full of goodwill.
If he had been even slightly malicious, they would probably have been in trouble.
So, 2B herself was eager to try.
"Master, is it okay?"
"Master, I also want to play a bit."
Eve and Swift also looked at Arthur .
"Are they also androids?"
Li Lao asked curiously.
Arthur really wanted to nod, but didn't want to discourage Eve and Swift, so he just said, "They are very special, and have had many cybernetic implants."
Although he said so, everyone understood.
This made many people envious; such beautiful androids, how wonderful would human life be in the future World?
With androids, who would still want a Zhenren (Immortal)?
Androids are not only good to their Master, incredibly thoughtful, but also don't lose their temper like a Zhenren (Immortal).
What a blessing!
Not only was Arthur curious, but Li Lao and the others were also curious, and immediately arranged for it.
The staff at Dome Base immediately went to make arrangements.
2B, meanwhile, changed into her uniform and underwent some temporary training.
2B didn't need to move; she just needed to prove that her mind could withstand it.
However, for an android, this seemed very simple?
This kind of experiment would naturally not use Crimson Typhoon, but rather China's first-generation Jaeger.
Horizon Brave!
Now that Jaegers have been updated and iterated, Horizon Brave's performance has fallen behind.
But after all, it was built with real money and effort, so it was not decommissioned.
Horizon Brave is over seventy meters tall, looking as if it has two warheads on its back.
Soon, 2B, dressed in her uniform, arrived at the control cabin, then quickly descended, connecting to the Jaeger.
"Buzz!"
"Initiating neural connection!"
2B felt no mental pressure because she was an android…
As expected, operating the Jaeger placed no burden on her.
Li Lao and the others watching this scene were immediately delighted.
"If the Brain-computer Interface and neuron-enhancing chips are installed, reaching this level is enough."
"Not just the Brain-computer Interface, but also cybernetic augmentation."
Arthur added.
"It would be great if we could produce androids."
Li Lao looked at Arthur expectantly.
But Arthur shook his head.
He didn't even have the technology yet…
It takes ten million reputation points to exchange for one!
Subsequently, Eve and Swift also went up to try; they were similar to humans, but they were 'New Humans'.
As expected, although there was a little mental pressure, it wasn't significant for the two women; it was very easy.
No wonder Mothers Domain was so certain that the humans she created were New Humans…
Finally, to demonstrate his strength, and even more so to play with the Jaeger, Arthur also tried it himself.
He was a 'telepath', and as expected, Li Lao and the others were all shocked.
Chapter 70 A real man should play big
The next day, all Chinese citizens received news notifications on their phones.
"Genius Scientist Arthur Emerges, Bringing a New Chapter to China!"
"Arthur : The Origin of a Genius Scientist!"
"..."
All kinds of news, the headlines of every platform, only had one name.
And for those who didn't read the news, the Propaganda Department directly sent text messages in its name, ensuring they reached every person's phone, also with only one name.
That was Arthur .
The people of China were bewildered. Who exactly was this person?
You're so amazing, do your parents know?
They only knew that this Arthur was incredibly awesome, but what did he do?
They didn't know!
Of course, the news quickly began to introduce him.
Titles like 'Father of Artificial Intelligence' were bestowed upon him.
This wasn't Arthur brainwashing Elder Li and the others.
Ahem, he did use his telepathy, but he didn't forcefully control anyone; it was just that some people harbored hostility towards him.
Arthur naturally wasn't pleased and directly modified their memories a bit.
Now, the hostility no longer existed!
At this point, Arthur also realized how terrifying over a billion people truly were…
His reputation value instantly surged by several hundred million and was still rapidly increasing, estimated to reach a billion very soon.
He had originally wanted to buy some things, but seeing this rate of increase…
It seemed… the Superman serum from "Megamind" wasn't out of reach after all!
The regrettable thing was that it couldn't be publicized worldwide.
But Arthur had no regrets; he was Chinese, so of course, he had to take care of China.
At worst, he would just visit a few more Worlds.
Under Elder Li's arrangements, Chinese factories quickly began production.
Brain-computer Interface, prosthetics, drones, firearms…
Even the PPDC had a new training plan, which was to have the 'Jaegers,' or pilots, start installing Brain-computer Interface and other devices.
This could enhance 'computing power'; as long as ice Water was prepared in the mech cockpit, there was no fear of the brain exploding.
Wouldn't operating a mech then be effortless?
Conversely, Arthur also acquired a lot of technology.
It was equivalent to a technology exchange.
The Pacific Rim World had simply skewed its technology points, which didn't mean it had none.
In fact, because it specialized, it was even more powerful than at typical points in time.
For example, the sling technology on the helicopters transporting mechs was incredibly impressive.
There was also the manufacturing of the Jaeger mechs and so on.
Arthur could choose not to use them, but he couldn't be without them.
He could refer to them when he went back; what if he really managed to create an Iron Man Suit?
Next, Arthur originally wanted to continue gaining fame.
The easiest way to gain fame in this World was to pilot a Jaeger mech to defeat a Kaiju, which would make him known worldwide.
But after waiting for a long time, he suddenly remembered…
The frequency of Kaiju attacks wasn't high; it might only attack once every few months!
Therefore, Arthur 's idea of showing off faded. He couldn't wait for several months, and besides, they might not even attack China!
…
"Tony Stark, I'm back!"
Arthur returned with a batch of goods. It must be said that with the experience of producing mechs, these items were much better than those produced by factories in the Marvel Universe.
As soon as he returned, Arthur forcibly intruded into Tony Stark's communication.
Then he saw Tony Stark's face, directly filling the screen.
Before Tony Stark could reply, he heard 'bang, bang, bang' from the other side!
"What's wrong? Are you a husky tearing up the house?"
Arthur immediately mocked.
"Shit, you bitch, can you stop intruding casually!"
Tony Stark dropped something and immediately said angrily.
He was experimenting with his Iron Man Suit, and then Red Queen 'popped' Jarvis away, almost causing his suit to go out of control.
"Oh, your suit doesn't look so good."
Arthur ignored him and instead sneered.
"Bullshit!"
Tony Stark was furious.
His Iron Man Suit, which he had painstakingly built, was nothing in Arthur 's eyes.
If Jarvis hadn't been unable to defeat Red Queen, he would have forcibly cut off the call!
"Tch, I don't even bother with small things like yours."
Arthur said proudly, "Real men play big, understand?"
With that, he directly had Red Queen send over the data for 'Horizon Brave.'
Tony Stark was somewhat incredulous after seeing it.
Height: 72.54 meters.
Weight: 1890 tons.
Seeing the weight, Tony Stark finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What kind of garbage did you make? Do the statistics make sense?"
"A mech that tall would need to be at least six or seven thousand tons to be barely reasonable. What's the use of a thousand tons?"
Arthur chuckled, "Is it possible that this is designed to match the enemy?"
After all, Kaiju were only a little over two thousand tons…
Arthur had long known it was unreasonable.
Godzilla could probably kill a Kaiju with one tail whip.
"Tch."
Although Tony Stark had some complaints, he was still very interested in the technology.
"Send me a copy of the technology."
He said directly, arrogantly.
"Then you send me your suit too."
Arthur immediately said.
"No!"
"Then I won't either!"
Both of them treasured their technology immensely.
The reason Arthur was showing off was actually to see what Tony Stark was capable of.
After all, the Pacific Rim World had already begun building fifth-generation mechs.
Could Tony Stark upgrade it himself?
Unfortunately, Arthur did not succeed.
Tony Stark only wanted to upgrade his Iron Man Suit right now.
After all this time, Mark II had finally come out.
So, he said to Arthur helplessly, "Do you have anything else? If not, can we hang up?"
These words hurt Arthur .
He had sought out Tony Stark immediately upon his return, and this guy was ungrateful?
Arthur angrily hung up the communication and then called Hope and Gwen to understand the company's situation.
In reality, with Hope as the CEO, it didn't matter much if Arthur didn't go often, so the company was running smoothly.
However, he still had to go and see for himself.
After touring the company, Arthur finally understood why military industries made so much money.
Military industries have high demand and are easy to upgrade.
Other technologies, like Professor Connors' technology, are difficult to achieve major breakthroughs.
And because of the appearance of the T-Virus, he was now keen on combining the properties of the two serums.
For better research, Professor Connors had even uncharacteristically installed a prosthetic limb.
He used to be very resistant to such things.
For some people, they don't like prosthetics; they prefer their original flesh and blood bodies.
Just as not everyone wants mechanical ascension.
If one can't even remain human, then what's the point?
Professor Connors was like this, which was why he wanted to restore his arm.
But now, he was willing to temporarily use a prosthetic limb because it could help him complete his experiments better.
