In Nick Fury's eyes, S.H.I.E.L.D. was originally a giant behemoth, while Lu Yi at best wanted to be a mosquito, lying on this enormous creature and sucking a little blood.
No matter how strong Lu Yi was, he was ultimately just a mosquito—incapable of inflicting serious damage on S.H.I.E.L.D.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yi was indeed a mosquito—but not an ordinary one. He was a mosquito from the world of myths. He didn't just want a little blood; he wanted all the blood in the beast's body. He didn't even want to leave the bone marrow—he intended to drain it all.
How could he carry this conversation forward?
If Nick Fury could afford the consequences of offending Lu Yi, he would have thrown his shoes at Lu Yi's face a long time ago.
"Can you ask for a little less? I really can't take it anymore!" Nick Fury's face turned bright red as he tried to keep his tone calm.
"Of course. Don't treat me like a bad guy—I'm actually very kind. If you say you can't handle it, of course I can ask for less!"
Lu Yi said happily. Nick Fury's eyes nearly rolled to the back of his head, leaving only the whites.
You're the only 'good guy' who mercilessly killed more than 20 U.S. soldiers with fireworks and personally executed all the surrendering soldiers. Don't tell me you weren't even trying to lie!
However, Nick Fury didn't say these words. Instead, he smiled and asked, "How much do you think you can ask for?"
"The amount of adamantium remains unchanged. I only want the full traceable data of the Sentinel Program's results and all technologies from the S.H.I.E.L.D. tech archive that are older than five years!" Lu Yi glanced at Nick Fury and said firmly.
This time Lu Yi had indeed compromised. The value of what he wanted had dropped more than tenfold.
Technology evolves so quickly—it becomes obsolete every moment.
Nick Fury only knew the general concept of the Sentinel Program, but not the specific details. However, he understood the situation of his family's technology library.
Strictly speaking, technology that's five years outdated could no longer be considered cutting-edge. In the shadows of the world, as long as you're willing to pay, you can find it. This was barely acceptable.
But Nick Fury was not satisfied—he wanted to suppress more people.
"Can you ask for even less?"
"Sure. The amount of adamantium stays the same. I only need the earliest model results of the Sentinel Program, and I only want technology from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s archives from ten years ago. Is that okay? Is that sincere enough?"
"That's enough!"
Nick Fury smiled. Although still difficult, it was no longer impossible—and the resistance he'd face would be much smaller.
Lu Yi was truly a "good" person.
He began to believe in this judgment and thought he had found a reasonable explanation for why Lu Yi had never used his power to break the law for so many years.
Haha, I must say, Nick Fury is really blind.
"When do you think we can restore General Ross?"
"Impossible in this lifetime!" Lu Yi said coldly.
What? Didn't we agree before?
"That was before. Since my demands have been lowered, my treatment of General Ross must also be lowered. You should understand—one cent, one quality!"
"Is it possible to—"
Nick Fury tried to persuade Lu Yi, but before he could finish, Lu Yi interrupted him.
"No, Nick Fury, you must remember—I am not your subordinate, nor someone you can control. You can only take what I give you—don't take what I haven't given!"
Lu Yi stared deeply at Nick Fury and said in a low voice.
Under Lu Yi's gaze, Nick Fury felt a chill pierce straight into his bones, but he didn't dare say anything.
His sixth sense told him that if he dared to say one more word, what awaited him would not be Lu Yi's calm demeanor, but a fierce assault.
Divine power is like a prison, divine grace is like the ocean!
This bizarre phrase suddenly appeared in Nick Fury's mind.
"Nick Fury, let's begin! If you face any resistance, just tell them this is the bottom line. If they disagree, they'll have to face me! I haven't been to the White House or Congress yet!"
Lu Yi's tone was casual, but the threat within his words was unmistakable.
Nick Fury was clearly worried about Lu Yi and the future. Lu Yi was like an unstable human-shaped self-propelled nuclear bomb—ready to explode at any moment.
This time it was just a threat—but what about next time?
America has many foolish congressmen and foolish generals who act without considering the consequences, idealizing everything.
What if they provoke Lu Yi?
Nick Fury could take the blame for the military once—but not twice. He didn't want to hear news about some congressman, general, or even the President being assassinated.
The plan that had always been in his mind now became more urgent—he wanted desperately to make it a reality.
"I know what to do!" Nick Fury said blankly, deep in thought.
"Good. That's it. Send me what I want as soon as possible—I don't want to wait!"
"Alright!"
"And don't forget!"
After saying that, Lu Yi no longer stayed in the conference room and vanished before Nick Fury's eyes.
Only Nick Fury remained in the conference room, his face full of disbelief.
This is really no fun.
Lu Yi was terrifying enough—but now, with teleportation, he was even more terrifying. This meant Lu Yi was more perfect, and his threat level had doubled.
"Damn it, how could there be such a difficult person in the world?"
