Since Howard's death, Nick has not appeared in front of Tony, at most he has only been watched and watched.

To put it mildly, the fundamental reason is that Tony at that time had no use value.

As an ordinary person, Tony is only technological, and somewhat useful, but his role in the transcendent realm is limited. Especially when S.H.I.E.L.D. got the alien technology, even Tony's last bit of residual value was useless.

So Tony didn't know Nick at all, and he didn't believe he was his father's friend.

As the king of agents, an old coward, Nick didn't blush for a moment, and continued:

"You've always been an ordinary person before, so we didn't bother with your life. But now that you have stepped into the realm of the other, it is necessary for you to know some of the truths hidden behind this world. ”

In the original movie, Tony rejected Nick directly because he didn't believe Nick's words at all.

But now Tony has seen the scene of flooding New York in his "dream", and he also knows from Master Zhan Liukou that there is a supreme mage who can turn back time, and even he himself has cultivated into a "super bat".

Therefore, he is still very interested in the transcendent world that exists behind this world. And this related information is certainly not something that can be easily searched on the Internet.

Now an insider came to the door, and his genius brain understood it with just a flick of the eye.

"So, your name is the department in charge of supernatural affairs?"

"To be precise, S.H.I.E.L.D. is subordinate to the United Nations World Security Council and is not under federal jurisdiction. We have enforcement powers all over the world, and we have offices in many parts of the world. ”

"Oh, it's still a world organization...... Tony suddenly changed his words and asked, "Who's going to fund it?" ”

Although Nick knew that Tony had always been unreliable, he was still shocked by his out-of-the-box way of thinking.

I'm talking to you about how high S.H.I.E.L.D.'s compulsion is, how big it is, and how many cards it is, and you ask me who is responsible for paying for it?

"Uh...... Some of them come from the five permanent members, and the other part is funded by S.H.I.E.L.D. itself. ”

"Self-funded? I see. ”

This kind of self-financing situation is very common in the United States, for example, the CIA often uses business jets to do some smuggling and other businesses, and the military often transports some local products such as powder and ice from abroad to China, and Tony is very familiar with this.

"Don't get me wrong, we have serious channels to raise funds, after all, the most lucrative business in the world has become legal."

"So, you broke into my residence today without permission, just to win me over? But I'm a little worried, you can't pay me. ”

"Tony, you may not know, your father, Howard Stark, is also one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"What? My father was one of the founders of your bureau? He's also a superpower? Tony was shocked this time.

"No, although he is not a superpower, many of his black technologies were more useful than superpowers at that time. He may have mentioned to you that he and Captain America are friends. In fact, he was not the only friend at the time, Captain America. ”

"But after his death, I didn't see any of his friends except Obadiah, and it has been for more than thirty years. Until today, because you popped up out of nowhere. ”

Tony pursed his lips and made a motion with his hand that emerged from the ground.

"I'm sorry, Tony. But please understand that the otherworldly world is very dangerous, and we don't want you to be implicated. This kind of nonsense Nick came as soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't even hesitate, and the expression on his face was as sincere as he could.

Tony leaned back on the couch, "Okay, let's not talk about the past, anyway, I came here without you, and I'm doing well." Tell me about your intentions for today. ”

"S.H.I.E.L.D. is committed to maintaining the safety of the Earth and protecting it from alien invasion......"

"Stop, stop!" Tony stretched out his hand to interrupt Nick's tirade and said impatiently, "Just say it directly, the purpose of your search for me, I don't have any interest in your great organization." ”

"Earth needs you, Tony." Nick had to be concise and get straight to the point.

"Oh, that's a good statement, it makes people's blood boil when they hear it." Tony leaned lazily back on the couch, looking like a salted fish.

"Tony, Earth has never been safe, and has always been coveted by aliens......"

"I'll report it!" Tony interrupted Nick again and raised his right hand in the air, "I reported that there is an alien in the Ultimate Infinity Pavilion in Chinatown, you guys go and arrest him!" ”

Nick choked, and his face froze.

He scolded in his heart, if he can be caught, will it be your turn to report it?

"Tony, I'm not joking with you......"

"I'm not joking with you, I promise you, that Zhan Six is definitely an alien, not a mutant, go on, let me see how strong your organization is." Tony looked at Nick playfully.

Nick took a long breath, "Tony, the matter of Zhan Liu, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been aware of it for a long time, and has been paying attention to him. But he hasn't violated the law at the moment, so we can't arrest him rashly. ”

"Did he join your S.H.I.E.L.D., then?"

"Not really."

"That's it. As my master's eldest disciple, of course, I have to take the same position as my master, and I can't just join any cat or dog organization. ”

"Tony, aren't you curious about the real world hidden beneath the world? Don't you want to know more about the truth of the world? Nick continued to lobby, "As soon as you join S.H.I.E.L.D., our internal database will give you access to the truths that have been sealed in the fog of history. ”

Tony smashed his mouth, obviously a little moved, "Speaking of databases, how did you break through Jarvis's firewall?" ”

"Jarvis originated from Howard's original butler, and Howard reserved the permission code when he conceived all of this, and I happened to get a copy from him."

"Really?"

"Really!"

Tony stared at him for a moment, then gave up.

"I'm not used to working and living, I'm a capitalist by nature." He politely declined.

"Well, I didn't expect you to come 9 to 5, but you can be a consultant. I'm going to build a team of all superheroes who will work together to solve some of the world's biggest crises. ”

"Sounds like you're going to war? I am a civilian and will only provide logistical support. ”

"No problem." Let's fool people in first, and there will always be a way to soften him later.

"Okay, it looks like I'm going to make my boy group debut too."
