Chapitre 520: Chapter 519: Harvest
On the other side-
Coulson had returned to the Triskelion headquarters with the traded goods and needed to report the results of the transaction to Director Nick Fury.
Walking into Fury's office, Coulson saw the Director engrossed in correcting documents and said, "Director, the 084 items trading event with the ninja forces has concluded."
Without looking up, Nick Fury continued working on the documents and asked, "How did it go?"
Coulson sighed, "It didn't go as well as we hoped. The 084 items we offered didn't hold much attraction for the ninjas."
"Perhaps because the items selected were low-risk or even risk-free," he added.
"We only managed to trade three items: a crystal skull, a mirror, and the Ankara Holy Stone, in exchange for 10 sets of ninja tools, a vial of Felix Felicis potion, a wax bath session, and a physical enhancement serum. The serum required five Ankara Holy Stones for exchange."
Hearing about the acquired items, Nick Fury set down the documents in his hand and looked at Coulson. "What's the Felix Felicis potion?"
Coulson proceeded to explain the effects of the Felix Felicis potion and detailed the resources prepared by the ninjas for the trading event.
After listening, Nick Fury thought for a moment before speaking, "Take the potion to Doctor Erik Selvig. With this assistance, researching the Cosmic Cube will be more effective."
"When taking the potion, bring along the medical observation team and Kabuto. Ensure they oversee the process to prevent any accidents."
"Yes, Director!"
Nick Fury then mentioned, "The compound potion is a very dangerous substance."
"It can transform a person into someone else for a certain period."
"This kind of substance is too terrifying. From now on, we need to strengthen internal permissions checks within S.H.I.E.L.D. Furthermore, during identity verification, we must conduct not only fingerprint and iris scans but also blood DNA matching."
"We mustn't allow ninjas with the compound potion to infiltrate us. If they were to impersonate important figures and carry out terrorist attacks, the consequences would be severe."
Hearing the Director's words, Coulson hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Sir, I'm more concerned about malicious buyers obtaining these potions. The possibility of ninjas impersonating others is rather slim."
"Since their appearance until now, they haven't engaged in such activities, nor have they used their abilities to obscure evidence. Instead, it's the other buyers who pose the greatest threat."
"Especially the organization that purchased a physical enhancement serum. We still haven't found any traces of them."
Nick Fury nodded. "However, they themselves are also a threat, so we cannot let our guard down."
"Take the time to visit various ninja villages and see if we can trade for these items with energy blocks and establish exclusive cooperation relationships with them."
"We also need to reserve several spots for their medical ninjas, just in case."
"Yes, Director."
"Director, there's another matter. Our undercover agent, Ferrel, in the Navy SEALs, has discovered an ancient temple in Afghanistan territory."
"I suspect it may contain a teleportation array similar to what Kabuto used to enter Earth. I plan to bring Kabuto along to investigate."
"But the military discovered the temple first, so I need to inform you and coordinate with them."
Nick Fury looked at Coulson and said, "Take a team of operatives with you. It's likely a war zone over there, so having more people will be helpful. As for the military, I'll handle the communication."
"When are you leaving?"
Coulson checked the time and replied, "To prevent the teleportation array from being activated and used, I plan to depart immediately."
"Alright, I'll take care of the military. You go ahead."
With the Director's approval, Coulson immediately began assembling a team to head to Afghanistan.

Meanwhile-
Charles had returned to the base.
He was currently in his room, where the items obtained in the trade, as well as the materials traded with Hydra, had been delivered.
Additionally, the energy blocks accumulated during this time, as well as various metals such as Vibranium, secondary Adamantium alloy, and Adamantium alloy, had also arrived in abundance.
Charles now had 400 unused energy blocks, with 19,800 grams of Vibranium, 48,000 grams of secondary Adamantium alloy, and 480 grams of Adamantium alloy.
With a considerable amount of metal materials at his disposal, Charles decided to forge a Vibranium longsword for himself, allowing him to wield Chakra weapons firsthand.
As for the remaining materials, he planned to use them to equip his ninjas with powerful tools and leave some for Kankuro to upgrade his puppets and strengthen his abilities.
With the metals sorted out, Charles turned his attention to the 084 items that had arrived.
He placed his hand on the mirror-like magical equipment, and immediately, a system prompt appeared.
"Ding! Detected rechargeable item. Would you like to recharge?"
"Yes!"
"Ding! Recharge successful. Received 5,000 gold coins. Current gold coin balance: 30,196."
Surprised to receive 5,000 gold coins, Charles hadn't expected the mirror to be worth so much more than the previous magical equipment, which was valued at only 2,000 gold coins.
This was quite a profitable deal.
Next, Charles looked at the Ankara Holy Stone. This stone would only reveal its special properties when three were gathered, and its full power would be unleashed when five were obtained.
Charles speculated that it would likely require all five stones to be gathered to maximize its value when recharging.
He wondered if gathering all five stones would attract the attention of the god of Sacrifice, but then he chuckled at the thought.
What could they do even if they noticed? Would they come to Earth to challenge?
With that, Charles stored the Ankara Holy Stone in his storage space and turned his attention to the remaining 400 energy blocks on the ground, choosing to recharge them.
"Ding! Recharge successful. Received 72,000 gold coins. Current gold coin balance: 102,196."
Seeing his gold coin balance reach six figures once again, Charles smiled satisfactorily. This amount would be enough for him to bring more ninjas.
With his plans in mind, Charles entered the system space.
