บท 123: Chapter: 123
"By the way, Baymax, how has the company been operating during this period?" Mark suddenly remembered that he hadn't paid attention to the company's development for a long time.
Since returning from S.H.I.E.L.D., Mark had instructed his secretary not to disturb him unless it was necessary, and he hadn't seen her come to report or seek assistance. Now, thinking about it, Mark asked Baymax about it.
"The business is doing well. The CEO has been releasing new products every quarter according to your development plan.
Although your absence from product launch events did have some impact on the company's publicity, both revenue and profit margins have shown a rapid growth trend.
Especially the artificial eye derived from the simplified version of the artificial white eye, after its product launch, they collaborated with the company's charitable foundation to initiate a public welfare activity, greatly enhancing the company's image and brand value."
"Mmm." Mark nodded after listening, clearly very satisfied with the work of the company's top management. "Since everything is going smoothly with the company, inform Hover-canon that I'll be going home in a while and ask it to wait for me at the company entrance. Also, let my dad know and see if he's at home..."
"Master, I apologize for interrupting you, but there's an urgent call from S.H.I.E.L.D."
"Connect."
"Mark..." A voice familiar to Mark came from the phone, S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury.
"It's been a while, Director Fury. From the tone of your voice, it seems like you haven't been having a pleasant time?" While talking to Fury, Mark connected to the internet through the nanobots within his body and checked today's date.
Being too focused on the Bloodshot transformation and Rune Technology research, Mark had neglected the passage of time. When the precise time displayed in front of Mark through the neural connection module, he already knew the purpose of Fury calling him.
"Indeed, I haven't been having a good time. That's why I need your help, preferably for free.
Do you remember the Dark Forest Law we discussed last time? It seems like we've become a target..."
"Does my dad know about this?" Mark asked calmly.
Having completed the Bloodshot transformation and possessing advanced technology, Mark was confident in handling this crisis.
"He is an advisor to our S.H.I.E.L.D., and I have already contacted him. He said the decision is entirely up to you. If you agree to join, I will send you the address of the meeting point later."
"Nothing is truly free. I won't do a losing deal. However, I'll allow you to owe me for now. Send me the location, and I'll leave now." Mark's eyes were sharp. He has been developing for sixteen years, and it was time to see how far he had come this time.
"Baymax, send the address to Hover-cannon. Cancel the previous plans. The date Loki arrived, May 1st, 2012, hasn't changed. The flapping of butterfly wings here is not fierce enough. I need to put more effort into it; otherwise, the author might say I'm being idle."
...
"I heard you agreed—'' In the self-driving Hover-cannon, Mark didn't expect to receive a call from Tony as soon as he set off.
"Are you concerned about me, Dad? It's all up to me, isn't it what you said?"
"I don't have time to care about you!" Tony said stubbornly, "Originally, I should have been at Stark Tower tonight, spending some quality time with Pepper, celebrating the birth of the world's first self-sustaining clean energy landmark building. But it was ruined by that bald guy and you, you stinky kid.
You should know that when I agreed to be their advisor, I specifically mentioned that consultation time would be every other Thursday from 8 to 11 in the evening. Those damn exploiters..."
"So, should I say congratulations or apologize? If I tell you that you missed more than just that, would you feel even worse?" Mark couldn't help teasing Tony.
Tony: "What do you mean?"
"I've already come up with a plan that can safely remove the shrapnel from your chest, 100% guaranteed. I was planning to contact you and resolve your little problem tonight.
Unfortunately, Nick Fury's call came in before I could dial the number, so I have to inconvenience you, Respected Mr. Tony, and ask you to endure a few more days." Mark spoke with a hint of pride to Tony on the other end of the phone.
"100%?!" Tony exclaimed in disbelief, "Are you still half-asleep? There's no such thing as a 100% safe plan. I'm well aware of how dangerous the shrapnel lodged in my chest is, or else I would have undergone surgery to remove them long ago."
"No, if you see my plan, you would be amazed because I've made significant progress in nanotechnology.
These little things are tiny enough to enter your chest without you noticing, grab the shrapnel, cut an incision , remove the fragments, and completely heal the incision without leaving even a mark."
"I think we should find some time to consider this matter. " Tony immediately changed his stance after hearing Mark's description, knowing his capabilities.
"I think we should solve the immediate problems first. After the trouble I encountered in New Mexico, it really shook my confidence.
But before that, you should have sister Pepper take Nini to a nice vacation spot."
"Oh, that big guy seems quite powerful. I saw it in the information they provided me.
As for Pepper's safety, you don't have to worry. Just now, I already had her bring everything to Washington."
