227 Temporary calm

On Manhattan's Madison Avenue is the Stark Tower, a 700-foot-tall building that once had the title of "the world's tallest skyscraper" and is no longer true, but its modern Romanesque architecture will always be remembered for its sanctuary feel. novel

In the past, it was the headquarters of MetLife Insurance in the United States, but in order to show off its new product, clean energy, Tony Brown. Stark deliberately chose it for the group's new headquarters, and renovated the top of the building, setting up a huge dazzling sign.

Originally, after handing over the company to Pepper, Tony rarely came to the company, but the last conflict with Roddy damaged his seaside mansion, and then the new element research work with Eric made it even more messy, so in order to make his residence more suitable for Stark's taste, its owner had to redecorate the house again, and for this reason, Tony has been staying at the new headquarters recently.

This kind of uninteresting place is undoubtedly not suitable for Tony's character, he hates ordinary life.

"Technology has changed people's daily lives, with fewer and fewer things to worry about and more and more time to spare." Tony at the moment. Stark sat at the bar, playing with a mug in his hand, and said to Miss Potts, who was sorting out the report. "Have you ever felt so bored lately that you can't do anything?"

"No, I don't think so." Pepper looked up and smiled. "I think it's because you've pushed everything to me, and if you want to take it back again, I'm sure you'll feel fulfilled in life."

"Then forget it, I'll enjoy the sweet life." Tony gulped down the wine from his glass and heard the voice of Jarvis, the artificial intelligence.

"Sir, there's an alarm message near Flushing Bay." Its owner hacked into the police system, so Stark could know what was going on.

"Oh, what's the news - someone has lost their pet. Or was the girls' wallets stolen by thieves? Tony asked nonchalantly.

"It was the Worthin room on Pelican Island that sent an alarm, and the police system has not yet received the specific situation." Jarvis was as honest as ever.

Tony chuckled, he knew that it was the real room of Watsonton Pharmaceuticals, and even knew that the company had hit Eric's idea, although he had mixed feelings about this friend, he was even less likely to have any friendship with Watsonton.

So he shook his head as if he hadn't heard.

"Didn't you always complain that Eric's opportunities were taken away from you, and now isn't the time for you to show what you can do?" Pepper asked casually as she worked.

"It depends on what the opportunity is, it's not every day that Hulk and Doctor Strange appear in this world." Tony poured himself another glass of wine. Said lazily leaning against the bar.

"If that's the chance, I'd rather give it to Eric, at least he won't fall from the sky." Pepper said without raising her head, her words hitting Stark's sore feet. Thanks to Eric's involvement, he, like Banner, became a star to accompany the moon. At that Hammer Industries exhibition, Tony was always calculated by the Russian Ivan, chased by Johnny who was inadvertently beaten, and finally forcibly pressed down from the sky by Eric, not to mention how humiliating that battle was.

This made the Playboy of the Stark family sulk for many days, and he fought for a long time in the research room against his armor. He was not willing to return to a normal life until he had results, and now was the time when he was eager to re-establish his image, how could he tolerate his woman sarcastically mocking him.

"Underestimate me?" Tony couldn't stand the agitation and immediately sat up straight. "My Mark Six has been fully upgraded from weapons and equipment to warframe performance. There's no danger in running into Johnny's kind again, and as for the Hulk - wait until he can fly. ”

Tony said proudly while holding his wine glass, he didn't know that the Hulk had an amazing bounce and often jumped up easily to get off a low-flying plane.

For Tony's boasting. Pepper didn't bother to pay attention to him, she knew this person's character too well, and just took care of herself. Sure enough, it didn't take long for a wave of air to stir up in the room. Then she saw a suit of steel flying out of the balcony.

Shaking her head, Pepper continued her work.

At the same time, a convoy of cars was also coming from the south, guests from Washington, who had come to Watsungton to see the new results.

"Ms. McTuckott, did Senator Kelly have anything to delay, I thought he would come in person?" On one of the extended RVs, a certain celebrity asked Mora that the people here are very sensitive old foxes, and the slightest change will attract their attention, as the leader of the anti-mutant forces, the senator's every move will arouse everyone's concern, and there have been some bad news in Washington recently, and these people need the senator's support for them.

"Kelly has a proposal for mutants that needs to be added, and today he is going to meet a guest from Boston, so he changed his itinerary at the last minute and I will visit instead of him." The graceful Ms. Mora selectively shared some of the information with the other party, and the truth was that the guests in Boston did have zài, but had nothing to do with the mutants. In order to follow in the lead of the Senate leader, Kelly is no longer enthusiastic about his original position.

Of course, this could not be tolerated for Mora, who was bent on revenge on Eric, and she hoped that the influence of Tongguò people from the bottom up would help Kelly regain his courage.

And her words, the people present did not doubt it.

These days, Mora has been using his status as an alumnus to advise the senator and become his spokesperson, and everyone has some speculation that this eccentric and withdrawn senator has found a life partner, and no one knows that Mora and him are taking advantage of each other. Now that Mora said this, they all believed that she was the plenipotentiary of the senators, so everyone could move forward with confidence.

"Do you know anything about Watsonton's new products?" A man asked tentatively.

Mora groaned, intending to give them some confidence.

"It's their trade secret, and it should have been explained to you by Chairman Watson himself, but to satisfy your curiosity, I can briefly remind you that their new appearance is related to the potential of the human body."

"Is it possible to turn us into mutants?" The other asked impatiently, and the person next to him looked at him, then at Ms. Mora.

Although many people believe that mutants need to be suppressed, no one will refuse the abilities that appear in them.

"Of course not, it's just that it can have a comprehensive improvement in the body, strength, reactions, healing ability, and it seems that there is also intelligence......" Mora said reservedly, interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Isn't that the Soldier Serum?" The man asked recklessly, and the others stared more closely, in the past, pharmaceutical companies did not say that the technology was not up to the requirements, and even if they could meet the requirements of this group of vampires, they would not be willing to let this drug be put on the market, which would make the entire pharmaceutical industry collapse.

Now that this kind of thing has just happened, could it be that the position of the pharmaceutical group has loosened now?

Everyone is thinking about what they can get out of it. At this time, many people thought of the Blood Clan Elixir, which is the only drug that can be comparable to the serum of a soldier so far, it is easy to use, there is no pain when Captain America is injected, and it will not affect the mind, but there are some side effects that are not too strict and make people who are not old want to try it.

If Watsonton's new product can have half the effect without unacceptable side effects, I believe they will be able to achieve great gains.

The people present gestured to each other with their eyes and exchanged words silently.

This news is more important than their purpose, anti-mutants are a long-term process, whether it can be beneficial to themselves is what they are most concerned about, some people are already thinking about how to persuade Watsonton to monopolize this medicine in high society, not to flow to the outside world at will, and more people quietly took out their mobile phones and began to send messages asking their subordinates to quickly eat Watsonton Pharmaceutical stock.

I believe they will have a good harvest on this trip.

With this in mind, these bigwigs across the political, business, and academic worlds waited with a smile on their faces to arrive at the moment when they arrived in the Worthin room.

***

After escaping from his father's office, Warren wanders aimlessly in the real room, not knowing where he should go. Warren is not the kind of mutant with hidden abilities, he grew wings when he was very young, and since then he has lived under his father's wing for a long time, and has not had much contact with the outside world, the only place he can think of at the moment is the mutant office, he has seen many reports of heroes in the newspaper, maybe only there can take him in.

I just hope that my father is not too angry about his choice.

"I just want to live well, and it's okay to be a mutant, it's a God-given ability that I should cherish." Warren meditated in his mind, and he could still enjoy a temporary calm at the moment before the guards rushed into the computing center.

"If we compare ourselves to clay, we will really be trampled on dirt." Warren recited Corneli's famous quote and kept cheering himself on.

"If you show that you think you are humble and insignificant, and you don't trust yourself and don't respect yourself, you should not complain about others, and others will naturally not trust you, respect you, and will also underestimate and despise you."

"Look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who, for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross with contempt for shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

He recited sentence by sentence, and his will became stronger and stronger.

Warren was going to the mutants, with his compatriots.

Silently determined, before leaving, Warren remembered a creature he had heard of as a tool his father had used to show favor to the anti-mutant forces.

Recalling the moment when he looked at the giant sheep, Warren shivered again.

There was no one in the hallway, and after the alarm sounded, most of the staff moved away, and the rest were on the other side of the room.

Warren hesitated, and the ghost sent a god into the isolation room where the giant sheep was. (To be continued!)
