Chapter 9 Gathering in the Dark Night
Stark Industries was founded by legendary weapons developer Howard Stark, and with the help of many parties, it quickly monopolized the high-end market.
Many models of the weapons it studied are still in service even now.
As a company that made its fortune by manufacturing arms, shutting down the weapons department is equivalent to killing half of one's life. For this reason, the board of directors decided to remove Tony Stark's board seat.
It is hoped that this will force the other party to reopen the weapons department.
"Listen, Tony."
"Your move has put the company into dire straits."
"You need to give me an explanation"
Obadiah has secretly taken control of the board of directors, and now he only needs the shares in Tony's hands to fully control the company.
When the time comes to restart the weapons department, Stark will still be the giant.
But before that, he needs to understand the other party's confidence in doing so.
At this time, the two of them were standing in front of the Ark Reactor. This was a facility that had been built before and had been displayed here as an abandoned project.
"My explanation is that there is a more profitable business waiting for us."
Tony then pointed to the Ark reactor which was trying to operate.
"Stop joking, Tony."
"The Ark Project has been proven to be impossible to realize. It's just a gimmick."
But when Tony lifted his shirt, the blurry blue light made Obadiah gradually fall silent.
"now what?"
Tony asked seriously.
"When did you make it?"
"Okay, you can put it down now. I'll go talk to the board of directors."
Obadiah turned around and touched his beard, turned around and repeatedly told Tony not to tell anyone, and then left with complicated emotions.
The appearance of the Ark Reactor disrupted his plan.
But thinking of the broken item he brought back from the desert, he had new thoughts.
"No one will disdain his own strength!"
The same goes for Obadiah.
Watching his "uncle" who was once like a family member leave, Tony's eyes showed mixed emotions.
In the past few days since he returned to New York, in addition to making new armor, he also investigated the group of people who ambush him.
The organization that that group belonged to was called the Freedom Fighters, a group of terrorists.
Tony had previously asked Rhodes to investigate, but the result was that the organization had been destroyed, and there was no one alive in the entire base.
Moreover, the traces left at the scene were also very strange, as if they had been ravaged by some large creature.
In addition to the main base, other scattered secret gathering points have also been cleared.
At the scene, Rhodes also discovered Stark Industries products.
After recalling the weapons and equipment he saw at the beginning, which were all from Stark Industries, Tony already had his own guess in his mind.
In this company, there is only one candidate who can bypass his authority to operate so many arms.
That's Obadiah Stane!
"Hey, I hope it's not what I thought..."
Shaking his head, Tony walked towards the studio. He needed to complete his armor as soon as possible.
A armor with more complete functions and a greater sense of security for him.
Time passed quietly, and on this day, the headlines of major front pages finally changed their titles.
【Surprise appearance! Is the opponent a hero who punishes evil and promotes good, or a thug hiding under a steel helmet]
[After the mysterious street hero, another freak has appeared]
[Just to fight criminals? Where is he, the new messenger of justice! 】
Below the title is a golden-red figure flying in the air.
"This weird sense of familiarity, and this bright color scheme"
"Tony Stark is still such a slut"
Putting down the newspaper, Lu Xixian thought to himself.
He had just finished a benefit performance, and all the funds raised were donated to charitable organizations.
Lu Xixian didn't care where the money would eventually go, he was just bored.
But looking at the environmental protection girl who was giving a speech not far away, he casually touched the wall when he stood up.
Shortly after he left, an explosion flooded the podium.
"False but not real, words and deeds inconsistent"
"It's a sin to live, so be reincarnated as soon as possible."
Lu Xixian's life is not very peaceful these days, and her home is filled with cameras and surveillance equipment.
Thinking of the Coulson I saw that day, it was no longer necessary to think about the origin of these surveillances.
But Lu Xixian is a little confused about where he showed his flaws and why he attracted the attention of SHIELD.
Oh, no, they are not called SHIELD to the outside world now.
It is the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency.
This damn name is so long.
Of course, these surveillance equipment will not pose a threat to Lu Xixian. Under simple illusions, they will only let the other party see what they should see.
But this is a bad sign, it means that his pace will speed up.
As night fell, Matt wore his homemade combat uniform and hid in the grass. As a gang member in front of him with a gun finished his cigarette and left, he waved to Luke and the two behind him.
"Shet! This is the thirteenth stronghold we have searched!"
"I hope this time I can get something out of it!"
Jessica's patience has been almost exhausted.
These three days, the three of them worked separately and explored many secret strongholds under Kingpin's command.
But alas, nothing was found.
Among them were either white noodles or guns and ammunition, and there was no trace of the missing people at all.
If this continued, Jessica decided in her heart that she would rush towards the Fisk Building, then grab Kingpin, hold down his fat head and smash it against the wall.
Then he questioned the other party fiercely.
"Where did you hide those people!"
"Hush, there's something going on ahead!"
Upon hearing this, Jessica immediately became silent and then looked outside carefully.
Clint Barton, a level-7 agent under SHIELD, is a veritable marksman. As a combat master, his eyes have been modified to give him the vision of an eagle.
So his code name is Hawkeye.
This time he accepted a secret mission to investigate mysterious disappearances and suspicious mutant orcs in Hell's Kitchen.
Originally everything went smoothly, but when he entered this stronghold, he remembered a voice in the darkness.
"Look, a little mouse who can use a bow and arrow."
"This is not the place you should be"
He was dressed in pitch black armor, and between his fingers were sharp knives filled with cold light.
Bullseye at this moment was different from the past. The invasion of black shadows and the influence of the beast soul made his animal nature slowly overwhelm his humanity.
[Bullseye: High Threat]
[Ability: A long-range ability comparable to locking]
[Warning: It is suspected that he has been transformed and has the ability to travel through shadows! 】
The intelligence agent's warning rang in his ears, and Hawkeye looked at the bullseye ahead and said.
"I like your confident attitude"
"I hope you can have this mentality when you beg for mercy."
Hawkeye put his left hand behind his back, and in the next second, three arrows were already flying towards Bullseye's heart.
"Hahaha, this is the funniest joke I heard tonight!"
A thin sound of wind sounded, and all the flying knives in Bullseye's hand disappeared.
Then in the dark night, sparks of collision sounded from time to time.
Two people who also had the characteristics of sharpshooters started fighting in the dark battlefield.
At the same time, the movements during the battle also attracted the attention of the three Matts.
The night is the world of the despicable, the veil of the hypocritical.
All sins are covered by black. Even if the sun rises, it will still sink in the shadows.
At this moment, under the cover of night, Tony was flying in the air, wearing a black armor coat that was far less high-profile than it was during the day.
This is Tony's newly developed armor, the Scout, which is specially used for exploration and pursuit.
This armor is only equipped with a small part of the firepower system, thus enhancing the battery life and tactical camouflage. Finally, it is equipped with the self-developed Jarvis body scanning system.
"Hell's Kitchen is such a great place!"
In just a short journey, Tony has already witnessed twelve robberies, six gang fights, and even one heavy weapons firefight.
This was unimaginable in his previous zero-stage life. As one of the top people in society, he only needed to enjoy prosperity.
After stopping a robbery, Tony disappeared into the air again.
He hadn't lost sight of his goal tonight.
Exploring the mysterious man named Dan Chenzi.
Tony would not completely believe what Lu Xixian said, he would only believe what he saw.
But before that, he needed some validation.
Looking at the stronghold in the distance through the night, Tony rushed there according to Jarvis's guidance.
And underground in the stronghold, Dan Chenzi was slowly peeling off the essence of the person in front of him.
"How many more people are there?"
The body in his hand turned into dust, and Dan Chenzi looked at Jin Bing aside.
At this time, Jin Bin still had the same huge physique, but if you look closely, you can find that a canine tooth on the side of his mouth is exposed, with a trace of blood red on it.
"There are still three hundred people who will be sent one after another. You can wait for a while."
Now Jinpin has lost his previous arrogance. The ferocious tiger is chained. After receiving the baptism of the beast soul, his soul has lost his control.
"I can afford to wait, but the bugs outside need to be dealt with."
“It’s a little too lively tonight”
Looking in three directions respectively, Dan Chenzi thought to himself, what kind of day is tonight.
Why are you all here?
