The so-called hand-to-hand payment and one-hand delivery, from ancient times to the present, has not changed this practice, no matter what line of work you are engaged in. For example, Erica and Pepper are not trustworthy to each other, but their credibility as 'businessmen' is still there. So, that doesn't stop them from making a deal a successful deal, because that's in a sense something you want to do.

"I want to know what you need me to do, and I can only plan it if I know what the job is about. Of course, this situation is very human. If you want me to deal with someone, it depends on who he is. If you ask me to settle a thing, it depends on the size of the matter. Of course, if you want me to take something, I also want to know how precious that thing is. Erica tasted the red wine carefully, and she was not in a hurry to speak, under the influence of being in the top position for a long time, she had gotten rid of the shadow of the past. Of course, only in the dead of night or in front of people she would not be guarded against, she would take off the disguise she had just experienced, "So, you can tell me now, is it a person, or a thing, or a thing?" If it's the former, then I guess it's going to be a little difficult. ”

"As you guessed, I really need you to spy on and track someone for me, and I need to know everything about his every move, who he has seen, what food he has eaten, and what color his clothes are. How is it? Is it difficult for you to be sleepy with such a thing? Pepper raised her eyebrows, and asked Erica this sentence in a hurry, since the other party has said that there is nothing that money can't do, then she can know that the other party is planning to ask for a lot of money now, she doesn't care about money, she has a lot of money, if the money can be settled, then why bother to do it yourself, "Don't be in a hurry to say your answer first, money is not a problem for me." Whatever price you make, as long as the price is not too excessive, I can satisfy you. ”

Pepper said this, which made Erica hesitate a little, this Pepper's statement seems to not care about money, and another way to understand it is that this task will be very troublesome, and the person they need to monitor must not be simple, otherwise who will spend so much money?

After thinking about it, Erica asked her own question, "I need to know who my mission is." ”

Subsequently. Erica hears a surprising and ugly name from Pepper - Tony Stark!

Now, in the United States, or in the world, no one will believe that you don't know Iron Man. The most famous playboy in the United States and the world's largest arms dealer and arms dealer can be said to be famous all over the world for being a superhero. His information is not secret, and even very public, you can say that he is proud, or you can say that he has no fear, but he has just revealed his identity in front of the whole world, so he must rely on it. So the question is, should this task be accepted?

Erica hesitated for a moment. From the tone of Pepper's voice, the reward for this task will be a considerable amount, but it also means the difficulty of the task, and she can't guarantee that the task will be completed 100%. If she failed, it would be unwise to add an opponent to herself, so she couldn't face such a choice, and she remained silent. There is no opening.

Seeing this, Pepper hesitated in the other party's heart, so he heard her sneer: "You were still boasting just now." There's nothing you can't do. But what about now? Obviously you are afraid, how do you know that you are going to fail if you haven't tried? I can give you any information about him so that you can spy on that guy, so that your chances of success will be greatly increased. Of course, if you're still hesitant, I can triple that number. With that, she made a $100 million gesture.

Seeing this considerable reward, Erica clenched her silver teeth and opened her mouth to agree, but she held back at the last moment. Because she knew that if she agreed to this task, it would mean endless trouble, "Miss Potts, you need to know the risk we are taking!" If the mission fails, we will face the financial resources and power of a super-rich man, and it will undoubtedly be a catastrophe! I don't want to end up with my own power buried for this mission! Wouldn't you do such a calculation? ”

So how do you know what kind of benefits this will bring you if it succeeds? My calculation is that you'll get $200 million plus my friendship! And not as timid as it is now! Pepper showed the confidence she had when she had forgotten the negotiations, and pressed Erica hard. She knew that the other party was already tempted, and as long as she worked harder, she would be able to make her agree.

Erica was still hesitating, and Natasha, who had not spoken at this time, said lightly, which made her hesitate, "I know what you are afraid of, I can guarantee that no matter whether your mission fails or succeeds, that guy will not trouble you." ”

Erica's heart moved when she heard this, "What do you use as a guarantee?" Can you interfere with the other person's mind? He's not the kind to be at the mercy of others. The whole world knows this. Unless you can come up with evidence that convinces me, there is absolutely no way I'm going to say yes. ”

Natasha smiled mysteriously when she heard this, and silently spit out a person's name from a perspective that Pepper couldn't see, and then saw Erica's pupils shrink, and after being silent for a while, she nodded slightly, "I understand, we can accept this task." But the pay must be three times the original! I don't think you're going to say no, right? Because you also know the difficulty of this task, don't you? ”

Seeing Erica agree, Pepper couldn't help but be overjoyed, "It's okay to triple the pay, since you have accepted the task, then you must complete everything I have explained, otherwise, I can cancel the cooperation between us at any time, do you agree with this?" ”

Erica nodded, "That's it, the cooperation will take effect immediately, I need you to provide information, and I will give you what you want at 22 o'clock every night!" Whether it's intelligence, or whatever......"

The cooperation took effect, Pepper walked out of the speakeasy with a happy face, she couldn't wait to share this joy with Natasha, but Natasha suddenly said: "Pepper, I think I need to deal with some things, you go first, we'll talk about it later." ”

Let's talk about it. Without waiting for Pepper to agree, she turned around and re-entered the speakeasy, bewildered by her actions.

After entering the bar, Natasha relied on her memory to enter the box where she was before, and in it she saw that Erica had never left, and she couldn't help but sit down and said slowly: "I think you have a lot of doubts." ”

"Indeed!" Erica raised her eyes and glanced at Natasha lightly, and said lightly, "You're that guy's guy, right?" How else would you have said his name? I'm curious, how did you meet? It doesn't seem like there's anything in front of each other. ”

"You don't have to worry about how I met him. I think we can work together. Natasha poured herself a glass of red wine and tasted it slowly, "I need you to help me find the guy I worked with with Tony Stark, and then monitor his movements and tell me all his information without any hiding." How is it? I can pay you. ”

"If this is an order, I don't think there's much to talk about between us. If it's a collaboration, I'll accept it. Erica had a smirk on her face, "Don't think that knowing him will give you the same treatment as him. What He can give me, you can't give me. Even the mission just now. Why did I come next? You and I both know why. ”

Natasha nodded, signaling that she knew that there was nothing wrong with Erica's words, she just needed to cooperate. She didn't care about anything else, she needed to know who that person was, because the guy hiding in the shadows gave her a familiar feeling.

Talked about two collaborations at once. Seeing off the two of them, Erica closes the speakeasy and gathers her right-hand men to set up tasks. In fact, this task is not difficult, but you need to consider the consequences of things. Natasha brought up the man's name to dispel her worries, which was undoubtedly successful, but she still had her own ideas in mind.

Putting aside these things happening on Earth, the battle between Rocky and Stardust is undoubtedly getting hot, this guy is not only extremely fast, but his body is hard and even has no weaknesses at all. Even a being more powerful than it would be able to do any damage to this guy, and unless a way can be found to restrain the Ezreals, this evenly matched or even inferior situation will not change in any way. So, what exactly is the weakness of the Ezreal people? Not many people know about it, because they don't have a lot of information, and even Rocky himself has heard of such a species in the universe for the first time. This creates a lack of intelligence and makes it impossible to fight. Obviously, Rocky's strength is stronger than this guy, but the final result is so embarrassing.

'What the hell is this guy's weakness?' Could it be that they are working on the cosmic energy that they are close to? It's a good direction, but the other party doesn't seem to be using that kind of power in particular, so he still can't find any good solution.

However, this matter took a turn for the worse in the next moment. Suddenly, the spaceship still shook, and Rocky and Stardust stopped in a very tacit understanding, and looked at the overwhelmed Ganata together. Because there is no one who knows the ship better than Ganata and Galaxus. However, the expression on Ganata's face at the moment clearly marked confusion. So the question is, what exactly is going on? Why did the stalled spaceship suddenly move? Could it be that who's driving the ship somewhere? Or do you want to go back to home? It's an unknown. If it is the former, then it is undoubtedly a prelude to Gallacostus' attack on Earth. If it's the latter, it proves that Galactus is in trouble, and it's likely to be related to Thanos, whom Green mentioned.

The latter news is not good news, Galactus will still come back when he goes back to solve the trouble, and the only way to do it is to get the ultimate eraser, but the ship's turn means that Rocky will leave this star field, and he can't just leave again after finally coming back. So, after weighing it for a few seconds, he chose to leave the ship.

At this time, Rocky is faced with a question, that is, should he take Ganata with him? Take her with you, and you can undoubtedly get yourself back on this ship again. But is the other party willing to leave with him? I'm afraid this is still unknown.

Stardust also seemed to know Rocky's intentions, and did not make any offensive posture, and said slowly: "It seems that you chose to leave?" It's okay that saves me a lot of trouble. It's just that the only regret is that the battle between us is going to be put on hold. ”

Rocky was silent. Noncommittal to Stardust's words, his gaze turned to the overwhelmed Ganata, and said softly, "You should be aware of the movement of the spaceship at this time, right?" So tell me, what are your options for? ”

Ganata was silent, she knew that the ship was heading back, which was a happy thing, but now she was faced with a choice, should she follow the ship home? Or follow Rocky back to Earth?

Of course, Rocky couldn't have told Ganata that if you left, he wouldn't be able to find the ship again. You won't be able to get the ultimate eraser. He put it another way, "Actually, if you were on Earth, wouldn't it be an influence on your father?" On Earth with you, he won't make any drastic moves. On the contrary, if you return, your father will be more and more unscrupulous. ”

Ganata thought about it, and seemed to feel that it made sense, but there was a feeling that she couldn't say anything was wrong.

"I'm leaving! If you want to keep up, do it as soon as possible! Rocky chose to retreat, and he turned and left. Without the slightest hesitation. However, he kept an eye on Ganata's actions, and soon received a satisfactory answer.

Ganata hesitated, but chose to leave with Rocky. Speaking of which, there is nothing good about your own home. It's better to stay on the earth and enjoy the kind of free life that has never been there, not to mention, how can you give up if you finally have a friend?

Thereupon. In Stardust's gaze, Rocky and Ganata departed side by side, quickly disappearing from his eyes.

"I hope you guys can show up in front of me again. Know that the battle between us is not over yet! ”

Leaving the spaceship hand in hand with Ganata, Rocky did not breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the huge spaceship had turned away from the earth, he just thought that such a crisis had been delayed, and that one day it would happen again.

Ganata silently watched the spaceship leave, and couldn't help but sigh lightly, "The spaceship is gone, does this mean that the earth is safe in a short period of time?" So, are you still going to get that ultimate eraser? ”

"As long as I don't surpass Galactus in strength for a single day, then I'm determined to get the ultimate eraser!" Rocky was adamant, "And you don't know when your father will return, do you?" Maybe it's a day, maybe another month, maybe a year, but it definitely can't be a lifetime! So, I need to be ready at all times! ”

"At least now that time has been bought for you to become stronger, even if you want to get the ultimate eraser, you will eventually defeat my father's emissaries, right?" Ganata told the truth, if it weren't for this sudden reason, the battle between Rocky and Stardust just now would not have known when it would have been.

"You're right, but it takes a lot of factors to become stronger...... "Rocky's current stage is no longer just about being able to become stronger by virtue of the so-called cultivation, he needs to constantly look for those powerful beings to defeat and devour them.

When they landed on the edge of Manhattan, Ganata couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if she was holding back a wave of emotion the whole time, "I find that I am still more suitable for this kind of peaceful and free life." As for fighting or something, it's not for me at all. ”

"You're not fighting." Rocky nodded, "You and your father are completely at the extreme of two possibilities, if you grow up to your father's level in the future, I believe you will definitely not be like your father." ”

"He is him, I am me, although we are father and daughter, but our personalities are not the same. If I'm serious, maybe my personality is more like my mother......" Ganata nodded her chin, as if caught up in memories with her parents.

Hearing this, Rocky couldn't help but be a little curious, who is Ganata's mother? It is absolutely impossible to be an ordinary existence, and if it can give birth to Ganata with the same existence as Galactus, then it must have the strength that is not inferior to Galactus.

However, it is clear that Ganata did not tell Rocky who his mother was, and he did not ask, and the two returned to Manhattan without any inconsistencies.

Rocky first sent Ganata back to the hotel, then back to his apartment, looked at the clock time, three o'clock in the afternoon, and then looked at the calendar, which showed that it was the third day since he left Earth, and there was no concept of time outside of space. And in the past three days, what happened that he didn't expect? Perhaps, this requires him to find the answer.

Pepper and Natasha were told the news of his return, and Rocky said that he would go to work tomorrow, and Pepper was fine, he didn't seem to react much, and his speech was very natural. But when it was Natasha's turn, she told him that something seemed to have happened in the past three days that caught him a little off guard, or rather expected but ahead of schedule.

The two of them were in a coffee shop, and Rocky and Natasha sat facing each other, stirring the coffee, "Tell me, what's going on?" Why did so much happen after I left? And, don't say none of this has anything to do with you. ”

Natasha shrugged, as if she didn't think there was anything wrong with all this, "Isn't this what you planned?" It's just that it's all ahead of schedule. To be honest, I've done some tricks in it, but you're the one who really made it happen. ”

Rocky was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "Are you trying to say that Pepper Potts has fallen under my charm and has taken the initiative to fall out with Stark?" No kidding, do you think I'll believe this frivolous statement? I know them very well, and the relationship between them is definitely not something that can be broken up in a few words, and there must be some direct reason for this. ”

"Even if you're right, but the current situation is the confrontation between Pepper Potts and Tony Stark, Stark Industries is now divided, and if we add another fire, then the entire Stark Industry will be destroyed."

Natasha's eyes burned with excitement, how could she not be happy to see that her plan was about to succeed?

But Rocky was not happy about this situation, so he saw him frowning and said, "This is not in line with my plan at all." In my plan, at least they need to go through real conflicts, not get back together at any time, as they are now. ”

"Compound? I think you're getting some things wrong, Pepper Potts has followed my advice and spied on Tony Stark, do you think they would have a chance to get back together in such a situation? Natasha seemed pretty sure that the two wouldn't get back together.

Rocky smiled disdainfully, "Are you thinking of all this too simply?" Why is Pepper Potts spying on Tony Stark? Is it because she needs to find the person to work with Tony Stark? Do you want to find each other's flaws? Perhaps this is possible. But one reason I can think of is that she wants to give herself a reason to forgive Tony Stark. And this approach is the tacit understanding between couples for more than ten years. ”

Natasha was stunned, but she didn't think of this deeper possibility, if it weren't for Pepper Potts's lack of death to Tony Stark, her plan could fail at any time, and even suffer unspeakable backlash.

Could it be that Pepper Potts retains some trust in himself? But why didn't I see it at all? I don't remember this woman being good at acting! If it is really as 'Liszt' said, then this thing is too terrifying. How deep does Pepper Potts's scheming have to be? I'm afraid everyone was tricked by her...... (To be continued.) )
