Boston.

The city, the capital of Massachusetts and the largest in New England, used to be an important shipping port and manufacturing center, but over time it became a center for higher education and healthcare. At present, its economy is based on scientific research, finance and technology - in particular bioengineering - and is considered a world city.

Although there were no large quantities of raw materials and no cheap manpower, the location of the new factory was finally chosen. The simple reason is that the convenience of the port city and the commitment of S.H.I.E.L.D. give the city a double advantage, while other factors - such as electricity, materials and workers - have little impact on the factories that adopt the new equipment.

If you have a choice, the West Coast cities may be better, the vast and sparsely populated inner states can also be, of course, the Great Lakes region has advantages in transportation and materials, but due to Eric's current control, it can only be limited to the New England region in the east, and after some research, Boston, known as Athens in the United States, came into his sight.

For the students, Babi is perhaps the happiest because this is his hometown, after all.

Listening to the familiar northeastern accent, Iceman fidgeted a little, and from time to time he opened the window and poked his head out of the bus.

In addition to his classmates, he was accompanied by reporter Eddie and Dr. Octopus, who had removed his robotic arm.

Eddie has been getting a lot of important news lately, and his position in the Daily Bugle suddenly overwhelms his rival Peter, and in the confrontation between mutants and Spider-Man, the former has the upper hand, and Eddie is also taken seriously. Out of gratitude to Eric, he wastes no time in reciprocating and scandalizing mutants into evil careerists, but Eddie insists on making adjustments. Instead, it was replaced by various doubts.

Eric doesn't care about this, no matter what kind of doubt, as long as the facts are conveyed correctly, one day the citizens will realize that they can't get out of the existence of a level hero.

Dr. Otto, who was huddled on the other side of the car, was a little mentally aggrieved, since he was found by Eric, the scientist fell deeper and deeper into a swamp, although no one stopped him from leaving, but it was difficult for him to find a more suitable place than here, and the appearance of the little girl who resembled his dead wife made him have to follow Eric's footsteps closely, this time was the first mission. He wants to make a more practical and stable machine for his Ming.

"I've heard it's not very mutant-friendly here." Alicent and Mary whispered that while Babi was proud of his hometown, his friends knew about his experience. Iceman once froze a mob to save others, only to cause a mob of mutants to storm his home in an attempt to disadvantage him, but a police officer took him to the police station and solved the problem with the help of Scott and the professor.

The professor brainwashed the people around him, erased their memories and persuaded his parents to enroll him in the academy, and Bobby the Iceman was born.

"It's much better now." Hearing his girlfriend's suspicions, Babi hurriedly explained to them. "The last time I came back. I was welcomed, and I was specially invited by the fan. ”

The mystery is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his friends are even more skeptical when they hear this name, this college is probably trying to study the abilities of mutants.

Ignoring the noise of young people. Eric instructed the driver to drive the car to the Lois Hotel.

Formerly the headquarters of the Boston Police Department, this historic Back Bay hotel is conveniently located less than 500 yards from Copley Square and Boston Square.

As the contact person on the side of S.H.I.E.L.D., Coulson was waiting there.

"I thought you'd choose somewhere like the Bostonian Hotel or the Copley Building. Didn't expect you to stay in a tourist hotel. After the cold noise, the senior agent's face was full of bitterness.

The cheapest place to stay in Boston is, of course, a motel, and the most expensive is a tourist hotel. And the one Eric chose is still the most famous five-star hotel.

"How?" Eric asked knowingly.

"The difference in room price is $600 per day, and the bureau will definitely not agree to it." The middle-aged man stared at Eric and wanted to hear him say something like a promise to pay for himself.

However, Eric ignored him, it was rare to take advantage of S.H.I.E.L.D., and of course he would not miss it.

"Willing to spend billions on a new headquarters, but unwilling to spend a few small dollars for a friend's happiness, should I criticize Director Fury for being stingy or praise him for his shrewdness?" Eric teased.

Now Coulson can only hope that they will go well, and if they do their best, the finances may not be too difficult for him.

"Tell me about the land." Eric gets straight to the point.

Coulson quickly entered the state: "Out of the city all the way to the north about seventy miles, near the Portland area, it was originally a small rolling mill with an annual output of two million tons, but now it is bankrupt and no one has taken over, we can save you a lot of trouble in operation, at most 200 million US dollars can be taken in full." ”

"How big is the area?" Eric asked.

"It's about two hundred acres." Coulson replied.

"I thought it should be multiplied by ten." Eric was very dissatisfied, and although he couldn't use so many places, it was always good to have a larger area.

"It has to be Indiana, it's New England." Coulson tried to persuade him. "We could have helped a little more, and we could have found a way to add some more to your public land, but we really can't do more. Think about it, there are dedicated ports, there are private railways and roads, and where else in the east can you settle your compatriots here, as long as they don't break the law. ”

"That's not enough, unless there is a loan guarantee." Eric didn't plan to give up a dollar himself, and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s order could be used as collateral to lend a sum of money from the bank.

"I'll report back to the commissioner, and if we can, we'll ask the SBA to help you apply for a loan guarantee." The other party saw his urgent need, and Coulson could only grit his teeth and agree.

At this point, Eric finally nodded his head in agreement, and he was going to go to the factory site with Coulson to investigate the site, so that the young man could relax for a while.

"You can play here for half a day, and if Babi has time, he can ask him to show you around, but I'll see you at the hotel in the evening."

The students shouted yes, and Coulson winked at his men before leaving with Eric.

"It's almost eleven o'clock." Before going out, Eric looked at the time, they left New York at half-past six, and it was not yet noon.

"Yes, we can reach our destination in another hour, and we can get to the neighborhood and eat again." Coulson replied that he thought Eric was there to confirm the time of arrival, when in fact he was just trying to confirm the time of another event.

While the agent accompanies Eric in the Boston car, a good show is playing out in Chicago.

At this moment, the famous North Michigan street is experiencing a rain of bullets, and a man wearing special bulletproof armor, wearing a black mask, a silver metal arm, and a crimson five-pointed star on his shoulder is on a killing spree.

"Who is that guy?" A police officer hid behind a police car with a sweaty face, and when he first received the call, he thought it was an ordinary gang vendetta, but he didn't expect to jump out of the famous killer quickly.

"I don't know, we just shouted to both sides, and neither side of the conflict recognizes that it is their people." Another policeman replied loudly.

In fact, it was just a misunderstanding, the killer was only targeting someone in the car who had been accidentally involved in a gang fight, but now there was some suspicion that he was hired by one of the parties.

"Hold on." One of the gang leaders shouted that he was a little pessimistic about the prospects, that no one should try to cover up the chaos caused by the "Magnificent Mile" on the Chicago River, and that he kept scolding the other leader who had been shot and killed by his side for being too ruthless.

However, there is no way to do it, so you can only eliminate the killer first and then find a way to find someone to blame.

"Concentrate your fire, I want you to shoot together." The leader shouted, and his men reloaded their pistols or shotguns.

There was a sudden silence on the street for a moment, and then at the sound of a "fire" signal, the sound of fried bean-like gunfire rang out again.

In the face of public criticism, the killer did not resist, he rolled over and jumped behind a car, and then the place where he was standing was hit by dense sparks, and there were fires everywhere.

"Well done, just a little bit." The leader shouted, then muttered, "I should have bought a grenade if I knew this." ”

Then he saw a grenade pointed at his forehead.

Dazzling fireworks exploded, and the leader's head suddenly exploded, and the flames rang out with a loud sound, and brains, flesh, and broken bones were splashed everywhere.

The rumbling sound shattered all the windows of the nearby cars, and the ground was full of glass shards, and the target, who was still trapped in the car and did not get down, was suddenly inspired by some kind of signal, and he pushed the car door and ran down regardless of it.

It was another loud bang, the gangsters in the near distance and the weak policemen in the distance heard a violent explosion at the same time, they could even feel the vibration under their feet, and shouted in their hearts that it was not good but there was no way, the other party's firepower was strong, the gangsters couldn't run, and the police reinforcements hadn't arrived yet, could they only let the unscrupulous killer be arrogant?

Their fears turned out to be a false alarm, and when the sirens blazed all the way to the scene, there were no more gunshots nearby, and the police and the emboldened gang looked up at the same time, and the killer had left at some point.

Now only a few bodies remain in place.

So, when Coulson accompanied him all the way to the factory, Eric had already ticked off the first target on his list. (To be continued!)
