Chapter 113 If I can't beat her, can't I beat you?
There's a problem updating the schedule on the mobile app. Please refresh if you encounter any issues.
"The Silent Hill movie, 'The Silent Hill,' is now showing. Watch the movie to receive a limited-edition keychain and game DLC." These kinds of posters are plastered all over the streets of New York cinemas.
The Stark Industries' financial resources for a full-scale advertising campaign are truly terrifying; even when you go to the restroom to collect free toilet paper, you'll see a muscular man with a triangular helmet printed on it.
The most talked-about topic lately is Stark's first project after his career shift, a game called Silent Hill.
According to online rumors, one participant was so frightened during the experiment that he was hospitalized, which piqued the curiosity of thrill-seeking Americans.
However, this is a really embarrassing thing for a certain bedridden director, thankfully the announcement did not mention his full name.
However, the curiosity of young people in New York was piqued because the game's advertising was very impressive.
A terrifying, bronze-toned gameplay demo video, along with a promotional tagline written by Fuyou himself.
[A game ahead of its time; those with a weak heart should not attempt it. If you dare to take on the challenge... well, you're quite brave!]
Thanks to Stark Industries' massive advertising campaign, most people in New York knew that Stark would be announcing a groundbreaking game at this event.
Everything was like history repeating itself, and the New York crowd, just as Fu You had predicted, began to watch the drama unfold.
Everyone is curious about how a weapons company could switch to selling games.
Even the head of the Time Management Bureau, Barks, was completely baffled.
"Am I here to disrupt this timeline, or are you here to disrupt this timeline?" Barcos really wanted to grab Tony and the other guy and ask them that.
The original plot has been completely altered.
Stark Industries has changed its business, and Iron Man is under constant surveillance. Apart from Tony himself still being alive, there's basically nothing they can do.
So what should I do now?
Should we find an opportunity to kill Tony Stark at this point in time?
It's probably not that simple; the pursuers won't let him do that.
Barcos fell into thought, but then a flash of inspiration struck him.
"Have it!"
Barks had a good idea.
……
"It's just a simple horror game, I don't know what they're all watching and discussing so much," Oppa complained as he sat in his office.
The current situation within the company is extremely unfavorable for him.
Tony was engrossed in his research in the lab, oblivious to everything else, while Fu You was in New York, aggressively promoting his game system.
As for Stark Industries' board of directors... it's basically defunct.
Stark Industries is essentially an arms company; it just started selling games after closing its weapons division.
Therefore, Fu You proposed a solution: "Want a share of the profits? Sure, exchange a portion of your shares for it."
Because the production of the game pod was kept secret and Tony paid for it himself, the board members were forced to become shareholders if they wanted a share of the profits.
They are very optimistic about the future of virtual reality technology, so they have mostly chosen to follow the lead of the industry leaders.
However, this resulted in Tony's side holding the majority of the shares, leaving the council with little power to intervene.
I told the council members right then and there that we couldn't cede power like that, otherwise we wouldn't be qualified to be on equal footing with Tony Stark in the future.
As a result, he was criticized by the council, mainly because the number of game shares he held was much higher than that of other council members.
Cough cough cough, isn't this a lot of stock? This is called reasonable investment.
Oppa felt that these board members had been completely fooled.
At the meeting, Fu You explained the development direction, the sales scope, and briefly mentioned how much money could be made.
These board members actually knelt down at someone else's feet! Where is their integrity?
They even said they'd sell the game to the universe in the future—so that aliens would play the game?
Oppadai had a plan in mind.
The idea of virtual games was proposed only after Tony was rescued.
He had also heard a little about Tony enriching the reactor from his terrorist contacts.
“The device in this game is definitely related to the reactor. I need to get my hands on the reactor.” Oppadai’s face darkened.
He planned to deal with Tony first, and then slowly get entangled with that strange little girl again.
However, firstly...
Oppa picked up the phone: "Hello? Did you get the movie tickets for 'Dumb Mountain' that I booked this morning?"
Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.
……
Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., is feeling down lately.
S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't want to antagonize either of the two new big shots who have recently arrived.
However, we can't just let them play around as they please; we need to keep a close eye on them.
Hawkeye and Black Widow are both out on missions today, so he has to go alone.
He pressed the button on the car key, and the black luxury sedan that Eggman loved emitted a beeping sound to unlock.
Although Lu Dan had considered sending his men, he received a phone call.
It was Fu You calling.
"Hey, Chief Egg, are you here to keep watch today?"
The surveillance was an open secret, and no one brought it up.
"Yes, I plan to send my men..."
"You can do it yourself, and while you're at it, buy me some things. I need potato chips, cola, and an eel bento box..."
Fu You rattled off a long string of words.
The man with the braised egg turned green with rage. Was he treating me like takeout?
"That's all for now, thank you." Before Lu Dan could complain, Fu You finished explaining everything, thanked him, and hung up the phone.
"..." The braised egg was speechless.
But looking back at the supermarket behind him, Lu Dan sighed helplessly.
"Let's buy it." Egg turned around and planned to go to the supermarket to buy everything first.
Just as he turned around, a huge explosion rang out behind him, followed by a shockwave.
As expected of a veteran agent, Egghead started trying to dissipate the force the moment he was blown away by the blast wave.
After rolling around on the ground, the boiled egg pushed himself up to stand up.
"What?!" Egg turned around in surprise, only to see a raging fire in front of him.
The center of the flame is...
"My car!" Eggman's only eye almost popped out of its socket.
His car was at the epicenter of the explosion.
Egg instantly realized what had happened: his car had been planted with a bomb.
But who could have done it?
"It's a pity it didn't explode." A light green armored figure slowly emerged from the flames.
"Hmm?" Eggman was certain that the strange person in front of him was the murderer who attacked him with a bomb.
That light green armor is, of course, Kamen Rider Bartholomew.
“One-eyed, black-faced, and…” Barcos bent down and picked up the pieces of the black luxury car from the ground: “The black car, you must be Nick Fury?”
Although he was asking a question, his tone was one of certainty.
"Hmph..." Egg's expression was very tough, as if he would rather die than confess.
but……
"Help, please help me, help me"
Lu Dan, with his hands behind his back, was frantically sending text messages to Fu You.
1. I discovered a genius chef today! He made ribs the size of a bottle cap, but the pieces of meat were only the size of a thumb. How did he manage that?
2. I recorded myself during a live stream before, and I thought I was speaking Mandarin, but my accent was really heavy. I should really study Mandarin.
3. (Continued from image) Zapdos, a Fighting/Flying type, can't fly, much to Groudon's delight.
Chapter 114: The Final Battle at the Quantum Summit
Upon receiving Lu Dan's request for help, Fu You, though puzzled, rushed over immediately.
It shouldn't be before Captain America 2, so it's unlikely that Hydra was behind it.
So it seems that it was Barcos who made the move; after being silent for so long, he has finally shown his face.
Fu You really didn't expect that he would choose hard-boiled eggs as his target.
They probably wanted to get rid of Eggman to prevent the Avengers from being established.
Fu You decisively contacted Tony: "Tony, the target has been spotted. Use the quantum system to observe him and prevent him from using quantum tunneling to escape."
Tony turned on the equipment he had painstakingly built in the lab, a smile playing on his lips.
"Don't worry, he won't get away this time."
With Jarvis as his computing assistant, Tony began processing the massive amounts of data displayed on the several screens in front of him.
The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind.
……
"Fuck! Who is that guy?" Eggman ran frantically down the sewers, clutching his injured arm.
After being attacked by Barcos, he was almost powerless to fight back and was forced to hide in the sewers to barely escape the attack.
Barcos didn't pursue for long; he stopped and looked in one direction.
A blue and white motorcycle was speeding towards him along the wall; it was Fu You's Heavy Bunny Riding Mode.
"They came very quickly, but I've already achieved my goal." Barcos has gotten what he wanted.
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Don't move, or I'll shoot you." Gwen pointed her pistol at Barks.
She also received a support call from Fu You, who happened to be nearby, so she rushed over immediately.
"Heh." Barcos didn't seem to care much.
He pretended to raise his hands, as if to surrender.
A pistol posed no threat to him.
Suddenly, a crack appeared behind Barcos, sucking him into it.
Gwen fired several shots, but they all missed.
Then the crack trembled, and many dark figures emerged from it.
The figures that appeared in the cracks were all familiar to everyone.
The Chitauri from Avengers 1, the Dark Elves from Thor 2, the robot army from Avengers 2...
These are all grunts that the Avengers have dealt with before; they are not strong, but their numbers are enormous.
