Chapter 50: The Quest for Vengeance
"Don't pretend, I know you're awake."
The fluttering words made Ivan a little uncomfortable, and he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the man in front of him with a little nervousness.
Luke sat on the only stool in the hall and asked, "Do you know why I arrested you?" ”
Ivan shook his head: "I don't know. ”
"Because I want you to live, you're a smart man, but you're not smart enough to do things, you want revenge, but your means are too stupid."
Ivan's expression changed, "What do you know! ”
"It should be clear that from Anton Vanke and Howard's cooperation, to your father being kicked out of Stark Industries, your father and son are living on the streets."
"Eventually, your father died of depression, and you think it's all Stark's fault. Is that right? ”
Luke asked.
"So what?"
Ivan's eyes were lowered, and there was a fierceness in his eyes.
"If you want revenge, I won't stop you, let's be honest, I need your intelligence, I need you to work for me, in exchange, I can let you and Tony Stark have a fair fight."
"Don't worry about the consequences, don't worry about the future, just the two of you, and the honor of your fathers."
Ivan was very moved by this, rolled his eyes, and said, "Why should I believe you?" ”
"You don't have a choice, if you refuse, I'll blow you in the head with one punch, and all revenge, honor, and the dignity of your fathers will all disappear."
"You're going to die here in obscurity, and Tony Stark is going to go on with his Iron Man life."
Luke's words were real and sharp, and they directly pierced Ivan's heart, this rugged Russian man, who was not afraid of life and death for revenge, even hesitated.
“... How long do I have to wait? ”
Ivan replied sullenly.
"It won't be long before Iron Man comes to the door on his own, and you can use the greatest patience and the strongest weapon against him."
"He has a grudge against you?"
Ivan asked, confused.
Luke thought about it, and stabbed him with a sword, and then kidnapped him once, and dismantled his armor, shouldn't it be a grudge?
"Ahem, sort of, I have no reason to lie to you."
Ivan nodded, "What do you need me to do?" ”
"You can continue your research, I will fund you, you will have a separate laboratory, but I can't refuse when I ask you to help me research something."
Ivan thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I agreed." ”
"It's comfortable to talk to smart people, you're free, at least in this base."
Luke waved his hand and ripped the rope off Ivan's body, and asked Mao Mei to arrange a bedroom for him and another room for herself.
At night, Luke lay in bed, thinking carefully.
Hydra got the reactor as he wished, and he also found a base to live in temporarily, but it is worth mentioning.
Ivan's reactor is really different from Tony Stark's.
The difference is in the rotational speed, the first time Ivan was sent to prison because of this rotational speed problem, and it was not until the problem was solved later that Tony was injured.
As for whether Lady Hydra can see the difference, Luke doesn't believe it so much, if there is such a smart person, she will already unify Hydra.
As for himself, he can supervise Ivan to develop an enhanced version of the reactor and high-tech armor, and don't forget, the Mark III armor is still here with Luke.
Also, it's time to recruit some people from this big base, you can choose some from the Hand Club, and then absorb some from the outside world.
The best thing is the bunch of "widows" in the red house, but unfortunately, the time is not yet ripe.
Luke rubbed his face, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After a few days of repairs, Luke left Siberia with Ivan and five Winter Soldiers.
This time, I went back to meet with Fox Smart and the others, and then asked Ivan to prepare the preliminary research and talk about the materials needed, and then bring the people back here.
Otherwise, the seven of them won't be able to support a base.
Riding in a few cars gifted by Mrs. Hydra, the seven of them set off for the nearest city.
After a few days of tossing and turning, I finally arrived in the familiar New York, and as soon as I got off the plane, I felt that someone was watching me and others.
Signaling to Dennis (the inch-headed man) on the side, he naturally took Yves (bearded) next to him and disappeared into the crowd, while Luke and the others continued to move forward according to the established route.
Ivan was somewhat dodging the sun overhead, and seemed uncomfortable.
"It's okay, I'll introduce you to a few of our accomplices."
Luke patted Ivan on the shoulder and said, and several people got into a car, and then Luke picked up his phone and dialed Matt's number.
"I'm Luke, I'm back, are you still at the bar?"
"It's back! It just so happens that you don't have to go to the bar, just come to us, we are in the suburbs of the Harlem photovoltaic power station. ”
"Okay, then I'll go look for you."
Luke communicates the address with the driver and heads for his target.
Half an hour later, Luke and the others arrived at the location of the Harlem photovoltaic power station.
This photovoltaic power station is located in the suburbs, next to the road, looking back from the gate, it is all a solar panel, straight to the foot of the mountain.
There are also some houses available on the hill.
A small white car drove up from the foot of the mountain.
It's Matt and Fox.
"How? Is Russia having fun? ”
Fawkes looked at the people behind Luke in turn, and was a little more vigilant in his heart, none of them were good stubble.
"Fortunately, the main goals have been accomplished, and there are still some unexpected gains, and I would like to introduce Ivan Vanke, the temporary chief scientist of our group."
Luke smiled and introduced Ivan beside him, and Ivan nodded coldly, which was regarded as a greeting.
Matt stepped forward and smiled, "You kidnapped again?" ”
Luke was surprised! Justified: "What is a crutche! ”
"Obviously I was convinced!"
The corners of Ivan's mouth twitched slightly, what kind of persuasion, obviously physical persuasion, if you don't agree, you will blow my head up.
Matt smiled silently, he saw Ivan's reaction and knew that it was not so simple, and then looked at the few big men with big shoulders and round waists behind him, the arms of the blonde hairy girl were almost catching up with Matt's thighs.
"Okay, just come back safely, we'll talk about the rest later, let's take a look at our company first."
Matt guided.
"I bought this underrun PV company and made some changes, and the solar panels, the mountain, and the wasteland behind it, are all ours."
"The excavation of the mountain has begun, the people of the Hand have become our employees, and a small estate has been built on the wasteland, which is enough for us to live on, according to your wishes."
"How about the sea to the east, the desert to the west, and the city of New York to the north? Is this location good? ”
Matt laughed.
"Good! That's great! I don't have to worry about you! ”
Luke naturally agreed, this Matt's strategic vision is also in place, and Luke is very satisfied with this position.
