American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

Chapter 141 The Thieves Are Distressed 【】】

Nick Fury had a reserved smile on Luke's words that he couldn't afford a few.

The most important thing for S.H.I.E.L.D., whose expenses have risen sharply this year, is money.Luke said he couldn't afford a few, and Nick was somewhat dismissive.

"Can you tell me the price?" Nick looked at the US team who couldn't put it down, smiled, and asked Luke for the price.Then, in a price figure given by Luke in an understatement, the complexion underwent rich and wonderful changes in a short period of time.

Smiling, frozen, stiff, gray.

Even Natasha, who was next to her, never thought that her officer, who always had a serious face, could have such a rich expression to show.

"How much?" Nick felt his voice was about to break.

"200 billion." Luke calmly repeated the price.

"I can't take it." Nick shook his head. "Luke, your price this time is too outrageous. I admit the power of this ring and the uniqueness of Heberon's technology, but this is just a ring."

Can the 200 billion S.H.I.E.L.D. come out?Of course, it can be obtained, not to mention other research funds and various types of aircraft such as Kunming, etc., the construction cost of the just completed space carrier plus the overall guard equipment is far more than 200 billion.

Although it just entered service according to Luke's space program, it will soon be obsolete.

However, as it said, this is just a ring. It looks small and pocket-sized. Even if the cost of its production materials is skyrocketed, compared to the current most expensive material vibrating gold, it can only be doubled. That's five billion billion.This is already scary!

Including the research funding, Luke's offer really made him a little bit overwhelmed.

In the words of his heart: I know you will be very expensive for a black heart, but I didn't expect your black heart to be so expensive!

It was Steve Rogers on the side. He looked at the ring on his finger with complicated eyes, and wanted to take it off, but there was an emotion in his heart that resisted him to take it off.

Although he is a poor ghost, his strength and weapons seem to be the result of a large amount of money and resources, as well as accidental output, which is extravagant.

"Look, this is the cognitive difference between you and me. You think it's just a ring, but I think it's a new era." Luke disagreed with Nick's words.

"You always like to attach some illusory value to your work that sounds reasonable at first glance, but is meaningless when you look at it. Open the sky and say Luke, this price is impossible.

I can't even report the expenses for reimbursement.You don't want to reveal everything now, do you? Nick shook his head again: "So, let's all be sincere." "

"It is impossible to lower the price." Luke is also very sincere: "Pure money can only be this price. However, we can change the way."

"I think you're digging a hole for me again." Hearing these familiar words, Nick's subconscious alarm bells rang out.

"Don't say that, we should be mutually beneficial." Luke corrected Nick's words: "Let's use the new currency for settlement. In the future, I think we can all use the new currency for settlement of such unreasonable equipment."

"I have no money." Nick replied dryly with a cold face.

"do not do that."

"I really have no money."

"You are not conducive to our communication."

"Honestly, little Luke, I'm really poor."

As soon as he mentioned the new currency, Nick immediately showed a different face.The rich and powerful who settled in real currency, and the careful calculation when paying in new currency, seamlessly switch between the two faces.

"You can be endless." Luke pointedly said.

"What do you mean?" Nick looked at Luke suspiciously. The other party seemed to want to give him a way to make money?This made Nick, who was extremely eager for the new currency, instantly moved his heart.

"SHIELD has a family background." Luke reminded.

"You asked me to sell those forbidden items?" Nick's eyes, which had been somewhat expectant, turned cold for a while.

"What can those banned items bring you? A large amount of expenditure every year? Groups of elite agents who lose their lives every year? A huge hidden danger that may erupt due to an accident anytime, anywhere?

Any one of the above is a greater or lesser threat to S.H.I.E.L.D.

In the past, you had no choice. In order to isolate them, you could only keep them in secret bases built for them by S.H.I.E.L.D.But now that you have collaborators, you have better options. "Luke said in a persuasive way.

"So after all, I still have to sell the S.H.I.E.L.D. property, right?" Nick looked helpless.

"Don't cherish your broom, but know how to share. Don't talk about the people or organizations that will join this cooperation circle in the future, just say that now I, you, and the supreme mage, my He Bolun and the ancient mage's mage organization have already developed a close relationship. Cooperation.

Our bonds are stronger than you can imagine during this time.Almost all the technology and products of Hyperion and I will be disclosed and supplied to the mages, and the materials and knowledge accumulated by the Supreme Mage will also be opened to me without reservation except for a few extremely dangerous books.

This is true cooperation.And you and the S.H.I.E.L.D. Bureau under your control are obviously still wandering outside.There are many things that I don’t need to say, you should understand.It's just that it's hard for you to turn this corner.

You stick to your so-called 'treasures' stubbornly like a miser, holding on to the idea that releasing them will affect the security of the region and even the world.

In fact, who doesn't have a few threatening big killers at home?

If Hyperion's technology is circulated to the outside world and controlled by some unknown people, won't they threaten the security you want to protect?
Could it be that those mages of the lineage of the supreme mage reject those who really want to learn magic just because certain spells and magic are dangerous?

As for the safety of the world, if there is a problem with the large planetary barrier guarded by the supreme mage, no matter how well you preserve your 'babies', what's the use?They are silent in those bases, and can only be swallowed by the invading dimensional demon gods along with the world.

Don't feel that it is irresponsible or humiliating to trade those banned items.Believe me, there will be more and more troublesome and tricky items and creatures in this world. The way you keep S.H.I.E.L.D. will collapse sooner or later.

Treat them as a normal transaction.You can throw out these increasingly heavy burdens from S.H.I.E.L.D., and then exchange them for a large amount of resources, more harmless materials processed by mages, and more technological products of Hyperion in the future.And the new currency that you are most thinking about and most lacking at the moment.

To put it bluntly, most mages may not take a second look at those things that you regard as treasures.Maybe when you want to sell it, no one will buy it.

Looking at the current situation, you know that the future is bound to change dramatically.Both Hyperion and mages are becoming stronger by trading with each other. As another collaborator, why do you exile yourselves when no one excludes you?

Let me tell you a piece of news, don't you know why I want to speed up the construction time of the building?The Supreme Sorcerer has negotiated cooperation with King Odin of Asgard.

According to the report of the ancient one, Odin has no objection to the supreme mage, but expressed concern about you and me, the two collaborators.He thinks we are temporarily powerless to have the power to match his and the Sorcerer Supreme.So he put forward a test, if I can pass, then he will recognize me as a collaborator, and all the products of Asgard and other nine worlds will be disclosed to us.

I have the confidence to pass the test and get my share of benefits.But what about you and the S.H.I.E.L.D.If you can't strengthen your own strength and turn all your resources into growth resources, do you think S.H.I.E.L.D. can still retain its status as a collaborator?
I believe you should know that this is not my alarmist talk.The universe outside has to be even more prey to the jungle. If you can't keep up, you will be eliminated.Master Gu Yi and I are willing to help you as much as we can in the early stage, but the premise is that you also show your due value.

Don't hold your rags and throw money at them every year. Any item that may come from the Nine Realms or other dimensional universes in the future will be more dangerous than them, or more valuable.If you sell it now, you may be able to sell it at a higher price.

Should we go forward with a heavy load and be gradually eliminated, or should we go into battle lightly and seize the opportunity to fight hard?You can think about it for a while.But after Odin and other new collaborators join in one by one, no one can speak for your position except your own power. "

After Luke finished speaking, he stopped talking, gave way to some space, and took Steve on the side to go through the whole set of test procedures, leaving Nick with a cloudy face to think.

"I heard that the super soldier potion can amplify people's desires and emotions?" Luke asked while leading Steve into the testing ground.

"Maybe." Steve nodded.He had also listened to Luke's words just now, but with insufficient information, it was difficult for him to understand the current situation of Nick and S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Then this kind of potion should match the soul ring. If you want to be recognized by the soul ring, you must first have some kind of powerful emotion. Only in this way can you resonate with the energy in the ring." After finishing speaking, Luke Finally, he added: "Of course, I'm referring to the soul ring you wear, Captain."

"I don't understand the current technology, but if you need any help that I can do, I can come to you at any time." Steve nodded.

"Let's go here. Have you seen the target in front? You can attack with the energy beam first to see the lethality." Luke stopped and pointed to a black humanoid target erected 50 meters ahead. .

"What am I going to do?" Steve nodded first, then asked softly in embarrassment.

"Relax your mind and use your will to control the energy pouring into your body from the ring. You have to learn to use them skillfully like fists." Luke explained simply.

Following Luke's words, Steve relaxed his mind, and naturally imagined the energy in his body as his most familiar weapon, a round shield.

The golden energy round shield was held by Steve in the palm of his hand, and then he threw it towards the human target in a familiar manner.The round shield drew a semicircle in the air, and then precisely hit the target, sinking deeply into the target.

Then there was a brilliant explosion.

"It seems that you used it well." Luke praised this scene.The good qualities and emotions represented by the gold of tolerance seem to match Steve's heart very well.

If you compare the method and difficulty of mastering the energy in the spiritual ring to a mathematical problem, some people just can't do it if they can't do it, and even if you beat him to death, he can't do it.But some people are casual, and they can make difficult problems that others can't do without scratching their heads.

This is talent!
And Steve Rogers obviously has this amazing talent.

In the following time, under Luke's reminder, Steve demonstrated item by item according to Luke's requirements. When the test ended, the entire training ground was almost a mess.

But Luke didn't care either.Anyway, the test field here always has to go through similar scenes every now and then.Not worth paying a little attention to.

And Nick, who was carefully observing Steve's test from the beginning to the end, finally came up after the test, and the only one eye looked at Luke quietly, and said in a complicated tone: "Did you Premeditated?"

"Planning what?" Luke turned his head to meet Luke's one-eyed eye.

"From the very beginning, you planned to drag me into a pit with S.H.I.E.L.D.? Those so-called cooperations are to tie me, S.H.I.E.L.D., and even some people into your chariot step by step?

It’s like boiling a frog in warm water. When you wake up, you don’t even have the determination and room to retreat except follow the path you pointed out to the dark. "Nick said softly.

"I can't admit it." Luke immediately denied Nick's words, "Maybe you are too suspicious and always like to think of people in the worst way? You don't need to put your energy and suspicion on me, I and yours There is no conflict between interests and the bottom line. What you have to worry about in the future should be people from outside the earth, more troublesome people and dangers."

"But what if there's a hidden force within me that I can't control?" Nick asked.

"Then you should increase the strength of your confidants first while you can still master S.H.I.E.L.D. The stronger your confidantes are, the more choices you have for the future, and the better you will be in the face of crisis." It is calm.

Moreover, if you can gain a firm foothold during this period and gain the recognition of other collaborators, then your identity is not just the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., nor is S.H.I.E.L.D. An organization that is easily manipulated by political means.

You will jump to another level.Will be more free, but also more dependent.That undercurrent may also be more cautious.Because if they want to master S.H.I.E.L.D., they also cannot do without you. "Luke spread his hands.

"It seems that the best road in front of me is the one you pointed out to me." Nick had a look of pretended helplessness on his face.

"After I go back, I will select a batch of banned items as the first batch of pilots, and after sorting them out, I can give you and the mages each a list. You can give the price after reading it, or make other requests. I consider.

I only have one condition, that is, I can't let them go out easily. "

"Of course." Luke agreed to Nick's request.

"Well, I have one more request. I need at least one ring like the one on the captain's finger." Nick pointed to the golden yellow ring on Steve's hand.

"I can satisfy you with this request, but you need to pay for items of equivalent value." Luke thought for a moment and nodded.Always give Nick a little sweetness, just think of strengthening the strength around him.

"So, what about these rings? Don't tell me they also have that outrageous price." Now that he had made up his mind, Nick relaxed, and opened towards the metal ring not far away, which contained other mass-produced rings. The box pouted.

"Chenghui, pre-sale, one billion, an absolute price of conscience! I use my morality to assure you!" Luke gave the quotation solemnly.

"Thank you, your morals are worthless to me." Nick gritted his teeth.

　PS: Crowdfunding helped the author think about the representative animal nature of each emotion.Let me make a sample: For example, red represents: anger, revenge, war, battle, and the embodiment of animality is the hound of Tindalos.Just click on the inscription, for example: Seal of Vengeance, immortality.Blood hunts, goes to the sky and enters the earth.certainly.There is a high probability that these will not be included in the text, which is a bit embarrassing. Let us play in our circle and enrich the settings.If you have a big guy with inspiration, you can post a chapter.
