Back at the orphanage, Slade lay on his bed, quietly thinking about what to do.

"First of all, enter Stark Industries, where you will meet a lot of interesting people, including the S.H.I.E.L.D. doglegs." Uncle Li's words kept echoing in Slade's ears.

"It seems that Stark is an indispensable part of the big things to come!" Slade thought to himself. "I've heard of Tony Stark's fame, and his old man Howard Stark's profile still has a place in the Captain America memorial, and the shield that Captain America relies on the most is designed by Howard Stark."

Besides, Stark Industries takes hundreds of millions of orders from the U.S. government every year, making Tony Stark worth tens of billions of dollars in the top ten of Forbes' wealth list all year round. And Tony Stark has always been high-profile, having had intimate relationships with almost all Playboy cover girls, and has also made him dominate the headlines of newspaper entertainment pages all year round. Slade remembers this very well, and Uncle Lee curses every time he sees the lace news in the newspaper's entertainment section with Tony Stark and a certain playboy cover girl.

"How do you get into Stark Industries?" Slade tossed and turned in bed and couldn't figure it out. Instead of wasting time in bed, I decided to go to the New York Public Library and use the computer to look for clues.

The orphanage has always been in a poor environment, not to mention computers, and even half of the electric lights are broken. However, the New York Public Library provides a number of computers to make it easier for older people to access new technology.

Slade browses Stark Industrial's website on his computer at the New York Public Library. "This is really troublesome, I was originally a fifteen-year-old boy who had just graduated from junior high school, how could he enter Stark Industries?" Slade frowned.

Suddenly, Slade jumped up from his chair and said, "Wow! Got it. ”

It turned out that Stark, as a super consortium that started with arms and focused on heavy industry, opened high-tech departments such as biotechnology and energy at the request of Howard Stark and Tony Stark to explore capital for a foothold in the future world. In order to discover and recruit more dynamic and creative new generation scientists, Stark Industries recruits a number of interns every year. Not only Stark Industries, but other major companies such as the Osborne Group are recruiting interns to identify seed players who can generate profits for their businesses. (Please refer to the movie "The Amazing Spider-Man" in which Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy intern at Osben as high school students, including "Spider-Man - Homecoming" in which Tony Stark borrows the spider from Aunt May for offering Peter Parker an internship)

Because the best polytechnic high school in New York State is Midtown High School of Science and Technology, and Stark's hometown is in Long Island, New York, Stark Industrial's high school internship program has two fixed slots reserved for Midtown High School of Science and Technology every year. But even so, as a middle-class rookie who entered Midtown Science and Technology High School through a convenient passage, it is difficult to compare with those geniuses in the third and fourth years of high school!

Slade, who had finally found his chance, frowned again. "In this case, I can only study engineering knowledge and find a way to make a name for myself in Zhongcheng Science and Technology High School. By the way, there is hope for taking advantage of your disability privileges.

Slade left the computer section of the New York Public Library and went into the library section to learn about engineering.

Slade didn't know how to become strong enough to be able to be fearless of divine power in a world where gods existed, but Old Man Stan Lee told him the story of an ordinary person's American dream of becoming a god: after witnessing the murder of his parents, Bruce Wayne became an orphan with only money, and in order to save his beloved city of Gotham, he not only wandered around the world, experienced criminal psychology and visited various martial arts experts, learned various genres of martial arts, and won many doctorates at a young age. After that, he returns to Gotham and uses his high technology and super perseverance to become a super-god hero - Batman. This seems to be an example that Slade can emulate and learn from!

Slade asked Stan Lee for all the comics about "Batman", and summed up several points from Bruce Wayne to Batman: mastery of various factions of martial arts, exercise of human extreme physical fitness, crazy learning of knowledge, unyielding will and huge wealth. Everyone is easy to say in the first few items, how to get the ability to be rich? Whatever, finish the first few items well, find a few private jobs by yourself, and are you afraid that you won't have money?

Since then, Slade has planted a seed in his heart: to become as strong as Batman.

To that end, Slade learns different martial arts at various gyms in New York: while he doesn't have the ability to travel around the world to learn from the world's top martial arts masters like Batman does, New York is a great place to have everything, and it's enough for Slade who is just getting started.

Although Slade does not have the willpower to burst out like Bruce Wayne in order to avenge his parents, he has been bullied in an orphanage since he was a child, and he has no close friends except Uncle Li, and that lack of security and satisfaction makes Slade's determination to become stronger and stronger, "I want to be strong!" So strong that no one can bully me! And to help people like me who need help. “

Since then, Slade has been on a strict diet, working in a gym to earn some money to pay for his own training and nutrition. Find some of the best gyms in New York to learn boxing, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling. Practice boxing every day like a martial arts idiot, and constantly challenge your physical limits. For this reason, Slade paid the owner an extra 30 dollars almost every week to compensate for the sandbags and equipment he had broken. To build stamina, Slade jumped straight into the Hudson River and swam from Brooklyn to the library in Manhattan.

Since then, Slade has gone to the library every morning to read and study, to the Captain America Memorial in the afternoon, to chat with Uncle Lee, and then to a famous boxing gym near Hell's Kitchen to practice martial arts skills and improve physical fitness, and then to study at the New York Public Library in the evening.

A summer vacation has passed, and Slade has gone from a thin, pale and malnourished teenager to a handsome little guy with streamlined muscles and a bronzed complexion. Self-taught all the courses for three years of high school and several AP courses (Advanced Placement courses): Calculus, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, etc. Slade has no interest in weekdays, except for boxing, and spends all his time studying. But seriously, Slade found that he didn't seem to have the super high IQ of Bruce Wayne, and was completely unable to quickly comprehend obscure expertise, but did his best to learn about high school in three months of summer.

The summer vacation is over, Slade cleans his school bag and lays down in bed early to get ready to rest. "Tomorrow is the first day of school at Midtown Science and Technology High School, and I hope there will be a few beautiful girls in the school." The excitement of high school life made Slade look forward to it.
