Chapter 194: Nolan in the Shadows
"What did you say!"
Reed Richards was undoubtedly enraged.
Since birth, he has been the pride of the sky.
Later, he graduated from world-class universities such as California Institute of Technology, Harvard University, Columbia University, and Imperial State University, and received doctorates in many fields.
He never relied on it to show off anything.
Because for him, it's just a normal thing.
What he pursues is real scientific research, and he always believes that he is the smartest person on the planet!
What Tony Stark, what Pickham.
These so-called geniuses, in his eyes, only have the qualifications to get along with themselves.
But in his heart, he never felt that these people were smarter than him.
And he is also achieving this goal step by step.
Over the years, he has carried out research in many fields, and even rented this building at a young age.
The reason why it is rented, not because he can't afford it, but because, for the sake of higher achievements, he spends all his money on various instruments.
These are his achievements.
He looked down on Victor von Doom and even more down on Nolan Locke.
Because in his eyes, these people are disgusting businessmen.
He has arrogant capital.
And he was always proud.
But now!
Nolan Locke, who doesn't have any commendable research results, actually says he's pathetic!
Big white robots?
What kind of garbage is that!
If he wanted to, he could develop something much stronger than that garbage in a day.
How could he not be angry!
Everyone sensed Reed Richards' wrath.
Susan even tugged at Ranolan on the sleeve and motioned for him to stop talking.
If Reed Richards had been willing to communicate with people, they wouldn't have had a falling out in the first place.
But Nolan didn't stop.
"Isn't it?
I don't know what Ben Graeme means to you.
But even if I don't know him, I also know that he has a promising job, but because of your words, he resolutely gave up everything and chose to help you.
Now, he's become like this, and what are you doing?
Have you ever expressed a little concern for him?
What are you doing while he's arguing with Johnny! ”
Nolan looked at Reed Richards with a mocking expression.
"You're researching, you're studying the abilities you've acquired, you want to explore something more."
"Instinct can do that!"
Reed Richards retorted, his eyes a little fanatical.
"You don't understand what the changes that have taken place in us mean, and once the secrets of our bodies are solved, humanity will be transformed because of it!"
"Heh~"
Nolan scoffed.
Ben Graeme's expression darkened slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Reed is right, I can handle all this, and Reed has more important things on his body."
As he spoke, he seemed to hold his breath.
It's just hard to see from his stone face.
"With Reed's ability, maybe one day, he will be able to figure out a way to restore me."
Nolan sighed slightly.
Ben Graeme, what an enviable friend.
With this kind of friend, you can always trust him and always give his back to him.
It's a pity that he met someone like Reed Richards.
Reed Richards gave Nolan an demonstrative look.
"Do you hear that, it's none of your business!"
After saying this, Reed Richards suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Because of this sentence, Nolan Locke said it to him in the first place.
Nolan's face remained unchanged, not affected by this sentence in the slightest, he just said:
"Hehe, you can't forget what I said to you, but you can forget how painful Ben Graeme is now."
In fact, Nolan's words not only stung Reed Richards.
It also made Johnny's face ugly.
Because from the beginning, Nolan's words seemed to be aimed at him.
Did he do it wrong?
He didn't think so.
Because he hates this big guy.
Just as this big guy hates him.
Make him apologize?
There are no doors.
Nolan didn't mean to bother with Johannistone.
He knew how bad the relationship between the two was, and because the enemy was unlucky, he went over to comfort him?
There are no such people in the whole world.
And he also knows how unreliable Johannistone is, he's a jerk, at least definitely.
But Nolan was sure that Reed Richards was in a hurry.
His expression can no longer be described as angry, as if he is about to eat Nolan.
He's just low emotional intelligence, and he's not stupid.
Nolan's words had already made him aware of his problem.
But he had no idea of changing.
He was just annoyed and angry, wanting to teach Nolan Locke a lesson.
So he raised his fist and slammed it at Nolan.
Nolan's eyes narrowed slightly, and Reed Richards' abilities were troublesome, but he wasn't afraid.
It was at this time.
"Enough!"
A shout rang out.
At the same time, Susan Stone's blonde hair flew away, and a powerful aura appeared on her whole body, isolating Reed Richards' fist.
She looked at Reed Richards with disappointment in her eyes.
"Reed, do you want to do it to ordinary people!"
Nolan shrugged his shoulders and didn't explain.
It doesn't matter if you don't fight, here, even if you fight, it's not interesting.
He's going to find an opportunity to give Reed Richards a big one.
Reed Richards glared at Nolan.
His eyes inadvertently skimmed over Ben, and Ben's eyes were different from what he usually saw.
Damn Nolan Locke!
Reed Richards roared in his heart.
He was furious.
However, he could not vent.
In the end, he could only say unhappily:
"I will try to develop ways to reverse this change, superpowers are personal choices and everyone should have the right to choose."
Nolan chuckled and said to Bengram:
"Ben, it looks like you have a chance to recover, and while that guy is a bastard with Reed Richards, at least he's capable enough."
Ben Graeme nodded at first, and then couldn't help but say:
"Reed... Not a bastard, he's just...... Just ......"
At the end of the day, Ben Graeme glanced at De Richards' back and said nothing.
He felt that Reed was not a jerk, but for some reason, he suddenly couldn't think of a proper reason to refute it.
Nolan smiled silently.
He's also looking at Reed Richards' back.
Is there a possibility, such as...... Let this world have one more 'Doctor Fantastic', and the Fantastic Four become the Fantastic Three?
If you think about it, it's exciting.
Nolan unceremoniously took Susan's waist around her and declared her sovereignty.
Susan didn't refuse, in fact, she was very happy.
She was never one to hide her feelings.
Johnny's face wasn't very good-looking.
To be honest, after what he just said, he now dislikes Nolan Locke very much.
"Nolan Locke, watch your moves, you haven't decided on a relationship yet!"
Johanneston couldn't help but speak.
Nolan smiled.
"I'm sorry, I thought we were in a relationship."
As he spoke, Nolan pinched Susan's cheek with his right hand and kissed her.
Looking at Johnny's depressed expression, Nolan was in a sour mood.
The purpose for which he came here today has been exceeded.
Not only did he scold Reed Richards, but he also made Johnny angry.
On top of that, the Fantastic Four are one step closer to disintegration.
Then, with hesitation on his face, Nolan said to Ben:
"Your abilities, the side effects are terrible, but a bad appearance doesn't affect your mind."
Nolan's words are obviously chicken soup, but at least Ben Graeme is very useful.
Even if he was in a hurry, he was actually ready to not be able to change back.
So in his opinion, Nolan is the most sincere comfort to him.
I went to the Fantastic Four.
Nolan went home and waited quietly for the rest of the story.
In fact, the follow-up things developed much faster than him.
The Fantastic Four are getting active.
Although now the Fantastic Four is full of internal contradictions.
But Reed Richards still relied on his brains and tied everyone up.
Although gain ability.
But even Susan is actually worried about whether there are hidden dangers in such an ability.
And the Doom Group.
Victor attended several more meetings at the request of the Board of Directors.
At the same time, he also identified his abilities.
Now, he has a metal body, and at the same time, he has the ability to absorb electricity.
His current skin was as if it were real, revealing the metallic color inside if it was damaged.
He could even feel that he was now out of his human identity.
Another meeting was held.
Several shareholders of the Doom Group are again putting pressure on him.
Victor suppressed his anger and could only explain:
"Give me some more time, and it won't be long before I'll get the Doom Group back on its feet."
He had already thought of what those shareholders were going to say.
"Victor, we've given you too many opportunities in the past month."
One shareholder said angrily.
Victor said secretly, sure enough, it was still the same rhetoric.
But in the next second, the shareholder's expression was indifferent.
"I'm sorry, this time, you won't have a chance anymore, from now on, Victor von Doom, the board of directors has unanimously decided that you will be stripped of your position as president of the Doom Group."
Hearing this, Victor von Dum was stunned.
Then he stood up with a bang, his anger palpable.
"You can't do that!"
Victor looked excited and said:
"I founded the Doom Group, and I have put in a lot of effort to get it to what it is now, you can't just drive me away!"
As he roared, the entire conference room went on and off, making the directors uneasy.
Recently, there seem to have been several similar situations.
But it was clear that his argument made no sense.
Victor glared at the shareholder who had spoken earlier.
"You'll regret it!"
The shareholder sneered.
"You've got a month left."
Regret?
A month later, it was the Doom Group that had the final say.
The first thing he had to do was to smash the Victor statue in the hall.
He'd hated that damn sculpture for a long time.
No, he won't wait until a month from now.
He'll do it tomorrow!
When Victor walked into the company the next day, he saw his statue being toppled down.
His anger was accumulating.
It's just that he still firmly suppressed his anger.
He still has a chance.
Just find a way out of the game within this month.
Soon, he saw the news and saw the Fantastic Four gradually make a name for themselves.
Victor went to find Reed Richards.
He hoped that Reed Richards' brilliant brain would get him out of this crisis.
After all, if it weren't for Reed Richards, he wouldn't have had this kind of problem.
But......
Reed Richards saw Victor with a calm expression.
Especially after hearing Victor's request, he spoke:
"I'm sorry, I don't have that ability."
Then he added:
"I'm sorry that the experiment failed, but it's something I can't help but have a lot to do right now."
His mind is now full of studying Gamma rays.
Reed Richards?
This matter has nothing to do with him.
What he hates the most is these guys who do things for money.
So he never liked Victor, and at the same time, he hated Nolan Locke!
Reed Richards' words directly allowed Victor to break the defense.
He even had the urge to kill Reed Richards.
Reed Richards was so indifferent to this.
At this moment, Victor's anger has almost been completely ignited!
Damn the guys!
These bastards!
He had no other way.
He even wanted to kill, and he now had great abilities.
If Reed Richards' research could be obtained, his company would be able to recover.
Even if you don't talk about Reed Richards, if he kills that shareholder.
Naturally, he will be able to get more time.
And during this time, he will succeed.
He's Victor von Doom!
Answer the office.
It's nightfall.
The night was dark.
The entire Doom Group was plunged into darkness, with only a few light shows that people were still busy.
Victor looked at the Iron Mask on his desk, a glass of red wine in his hand.
Perhaps, he really should.
That's when it happened.
Victor suddenly looked behind him.
"Who are you!"
In the corner, a figure appeared.
He didn't even know when the man was there.
Victor's hole shrunk, but there was no fear on his face.
Even before, he had never been afraid, not to mention that now he had gained great ability.
"Looks like you're trying to kill?"
The voice was somewhat familiar, but Victor didn't remember it for a moment.
The voice continued.
"Perhaps, you have other options, and you don't necessarily have to go down the road of killing.
If you need it, I can inject 30 million for you. ”
With the sound, the figure came out of the darkness.
"Nolan Locke?"
Victor was a little surprised.
Nolan's face was calm.
Victor frowned, he didn't understand why Nolan Locke was suddenly here.
It was even guessed that he wanted to kill.
But......
"An injection of 30 million will not solve any problems."
Victor shook his glass, his face calm.
"For your sake, you can leave, we have no premise for cooperation."
He wondered how Nolan Locke was here, plus Nolan Locke's words, so he did give up on the idea.
Nolan naturally didn't go.
"No, we do.
This time in space, we all lost a lot, only Reid Richards got everything, maybe, we can work together......"
