Chapter 70: Erskine's Death

"Oh, my God, you just scared me!" Howard Stark looked at the shields, and after making sure that they were all real, he glared and said, "No wonder you can put things like the Great Laser Knife, the Concussive Forbidden Power Fist, the Healing Fruit, and the Space Folding Backpack on the counter for sale, it turns out that you actually have the terrible 'copying' process!" ”

Hearing this, Shang Yu smiled and said, "Now there is one more 'Super Soldier Serum'. ”

"Okay!" Howard was reminded by him, only to find that there was an extra "Super Soldier Serum" on the list of goods, which was very cheap, only one space-time coin.

But as soon as this thought was born, it felt that something was wrong.

Although a space-time coin is inconspicuous compared to other things, it is also the price of a ton of gold, which is higher than the cost of an atomic bomb.

"I guess let's continue to talk about the 'Vibranium Shield'!" Howard Stark said: "The smelting of vibranium is not as simple as you think, although I don't know what level of your technology is, but since you still need our 'Super Soldier Serum' and 'Vibranium' here, it is obviously still within the range of my understanding, and among the methods I can think of, there seems to be no one who can smelt 'Vibranium', at least not this 'Mutated Vibranium Shield'." ”

Shang Yu did not refute this sentence.

The technology of the Earth Federation is actually far beyond Howard's imagination, but it is true that the "black technology" unique to this world is not available in the Earth Federation.

Because of black technology, it is not linked to the overall level of science and technology at all!

"Give it a try, it really can't be helped, it doesn't matter." Shang Yu said.

The cauldron lid is an integrated attack and defense, which is still very good as a cold weapon, and can already be sold in stores.

Then, together with Howard Stark, the two tried all kinds of methods, fire, blisters, freezing, and tried all the ways they could think of, but they couldn't find a way to destroy the vibranium shield, let alone smelt it into the desired shape - in the end, Shang Yu had to admit that Captain America's cauldron lid really didn't have any way to smelt.

As for ordinary vibranium, Howard still has some of them, but the quantity is very small, and if it is not made into a finished product, it cannot be copied in the space-time factory, but it is made into a finished product, and it cannot be reshaped after copying.

Although ordinary vibranium is not as hard as the lid of the cauldron, it is just as difficult to smelt, barely made into knives, and even has no sharp edge.

The ability to absorb kinetic energy also makes it immune to whetstones, making it unable to be processed and polished.

"Forget it, this vibranium is not suitable for weapons, it is enough to have a cauldron lid, as long as you find a way to get the Cosmic Rubik's Cube in the future, the purchase of this world will be basically completed!" Shang Yu finally reluctantly gave up the manufacture of "vibranium cold weapons".

If you can't polish it, you won't have a sharp edge, and you can only make it into a blunt weapon.

As for blunt tools, the inexpensive "super alloy wrench" can meet the needs of people below the level of broken steel, and the cauldron lid can meet the needs of broken steel and mountain lifters, and there is no need for other blunt tools at all.

That evening, Howard took Steve, who had just become Captain America, to Shang Yu.

"Mr. Shang Yu, I have very unfortunate news for you." Howard said.

Hearing this, Shang Yu looked at him, then at Captain America, and said, "Is it that Dr. Erskine was assassinated by Hydra and died?" ”

Both of them were stunned when they heard this.

"How do you know?" Steve wondered.

"Alas!" Shang Yu sighed and didn't answer.

The inertia of history? The corrective power of the plot? The trajectory of fate? Or is it the stability of space-time?

The reason Shang Yu didn't know, but he had already guessed it, and now it is confirmed.

Your own appearance can change the details of history, but it seems that it is difficult to change the course of history, unless it is the kind of collapse that cuts off all possibilities, otherwise the corrective power of the plot will work to correct the deviated trajectory. Like the red skull, everyone is dead, and if you become a ghost, you have to fight with the United States, which is a kind of correction of the will of the world.

However, none of this has anything to do with Shang Yu, he is just a passerby after all.

It's good to get the things he wants to buy, and he doesn't care about the rest.

"Send Dr. Erskine's corpse here!" Shang Yu said: "He has no relatives and not many friends, as one of his few confidants, I want to help him collect and bury." ”

Hearing this, Howard was silent and nodded.

Erskine's body was quickly sent over, but his fatal wound was not a gunshot wound as Shang Yu imagined, but a collapse of Yin Qi into his body and soul.

"Can you tell me a little bit about the situation?" Shang Yu asked Steve.

Immediately, Steve said, "I didn't know much about the situation at the time, a 'spatial rift' that I couldn't understand suddenly appeared, and then the goblin with the red skull on his head killed him. I was the only survivor of several other super soldiers who were killed, and I fought hard against the skull, but I didn't hit him. ”

When Shang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The trajectory of fate is really difficult for manpower to resist. ”

"I don't believe in fate." Steve said.

"The trajectory of fate is not called fate, not superstition." Howard said.

He seemed to think of something, but didn't say it.

"However, although the trajectory of fate is difficult to resist, our Huaxia people always firmly believe in a sentence, called 'man will conquer the sky'!" Shang Yu said, and for the first time, he fully mobilized the healing fruit ability and released it on Dr. Erskine.

This is the "restorative" effect of the healing fruit developed to the extreme, at the expense of lifespan.

It's almost a life-for-life act.

But the perfect-level healing fruit, this price is not fatal, and for Shang Yu, the life of an ordinary person is insignificant.

So, he can bring people back to life!

The souls that had been devoured by the curse were soon reunited and revived under the effect of the fruit's ability.

Erskine opened his eyes in confusion, saw Shang Yu, and couldn't help but smile, and said, "Could it be that you really made a promise to work for you forever after death?" Are you the Grim Reaper? ”

He also thought he was in the world of the dead.

"I'm not the Grim Reaper, and you're not dead, you're just resurrected by me." Shang Yu helped him up and said with a smile: "However, you have already paid for this world once, and now, your life is given by me, work for me for the rest of your life!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled out a contract.

This is an employment contract for the owner of the branch.

Seeing this, Erskine was stunned for a moment, and then wrote his name on the contract and said, "It looks like the treatment is quite good." ”

Shang Yu smiled.

The treatment of the branch owner is indeed very good, almost equivalent to being in the immortal class.

Because there are so many things that can be obtained to increase lifespan.

"Damn, how did I forget the healing fruit's ability to resurrect the dead!" Howard exasperated.

Apparently, due to his negligence, Dr. Erskine, who invented the Super Soldier Serum, was abducted.

"This, it turned out to be a resurrection, how is it possible?" Captain America Steve glared.

"What's next you're going to do with the Red Skull?" Erskine asked Shang Yu.

In this regard, Shang Yu smiled and said, "Of course he took the initiative to kill him, how could such a dangerous thing as the Cosmic Cube stay in the hands of a devil?" ”
