A fantasy of a beautiful manga

Chapter 268 Aldrich Killian
New York, Stark Tower, 5 minutes ago.

"...everything in the building is complicated, Tony said, and that should change, Pepper." Happy approached Pepper and offered him his latest idea.

Ever since Tony didn't need him as his bodyguard, Happy has become the head of Stark's Industrial Security Department. Although he can't drink Tony together, Happy still likes this job very much. After all, he can manage Many of them go back to the company, and they have more rights than before.

Now that Harpy is looking for Pepper, he just wants to get rid of some redundant people in the company and give the company a new look.

"Aha? So, you suggest that I replace all the cleaners with robots?" Pepper signed a transfer list, looked at Happy, and said helplessly.

"I mean, among all resources, manpower is the most complicated, we should start to solve it immediately..."

Happy was explaining, but at this moment, Pepper's assistant came from the side: "Miss Pepper, your four o'clock appointment is here."

"Okay, I'll go right away...Happy, I'm going to see a client, I'll talk about it later, okay?" Hearing what the assistant said, Pepper suspended the conversation with Happy, and went to the reception room to make an appointment customer of.

Although the person who made the appointment this time did not write down his name, he only said that he was the person in charge of the aim technology company, but Pepper still had to meet him. After all, his company is one of the fastest growing technology companies in the United States in recent years. The company is likely to bring new orders to Stark Industries.

As the sole person in charge of the company and the executive director of Stark Industries, this is one of Pepper's most important tasks every day.

Since Tony Stark shut down Stark Industries' shutdown weapon more than two years ago, the company's stock has plummeted. Fortunately, Tony later came up with a new type of clean energy and High-intensity energy still allowed Stark Industries to start again, and slowly returned to the top position in the technology industry.

In particular, the alien war that took place in New York more than half a year ago prompted the U.S. government to urgently need to upgrade the country's technology and obtain high-intensity energy to enter beyond the earth, so Stark Industries ushered in another big order , so that Stark Industries has risen to another level, even higher than before.

The so-called war is a war of technology, money, manpower and material resources. With high technology, the earth can hope to fight against unknown alien life, instead of the same as now, when encountering an alien army, we can only use nuclear bombs, or even not The Avengers Alliance and Guardian Alliance controlled by the government will fight against it.

Therefore, Stark Industries' new project, the Stark element containing high-intensity energy, has become the new favorite of the government, and it is used as an energy source for high-tech weapons and vehicles that the government's science and technology department is researching.

Although the alien war has caused the entire earth to panic, the earth is not without gains from it. The weapons of the alien Chirita army, the two-man flying machine, and the large mechanical turtle have all attracted the earth, which is now in urgent need of technological breakthroughs. With the long-awaited nectar, the capital has been greatly improved.

Among them, the energy used in the weapons and vehicles of the alien Qiruita army has also been used as an important research object, but after all, it is an alien thing, and there are many elements in it. , but directly chose Stark Industries' new energy as the preferred energy supply.

In addition, many companies, the earth, and other countries are interested in Stark Industries' new energy and have placed orders one after another, making Pepper even more busy.

People from Aim Technology Company came to see me today, probably because of the purchase of new elements...

Bringing Happy, Pepper entered the reception room, and saw a short, thin man in a suit.

"Pepper." Seeing Pepper coming in, the man showed an extremely excited smile.

"Killian?" Seeing this person's appearance, while being surprised, Pepper remembered the other person's information in his mind.

Killian, whose full name is Aldrich Killian, although Tony didn't remember him, but as Tony's assistant, Pepper knew Killian because he had worked with him and even chased him...

But later on, she seldom saw each other. The most recent time was five years ago, and she never saw each other again, and she didn't know what the other party was doing.

But she remembered that the other party should not be rich. She didn't expect to become the person in charge of Aim Technology now, and she looks like a successful person, which is a bit strange.

"Killian, these five years... where have you been?" Pepper asked.

"I joined aim and became the person in charge of aim." Killian skimmed his experience lightly, and fixed his eyes on Pepper, "Call me Aldridge, after so many years, your complexion is really good Not bad, Pepper."

"You too..." Pepper looked at the other party. She remembered that the other party's health didn't seem to be very good. She had been suffering from illness all the time, but now she looked better than Tony. It was a miracle.

"Uh, why didn't you wear the badge you were given when you entered the door." Looking at Killian who was having such a happy conversation with Pepper, Happy was a little unhappy, and specifically picked a trouble, trying to make this guy suffocate.

Although Pepper said the guy's name, Happy still didn't remember who the guy in front of him was. In this regard, he and Tony were somewhat similar.

"Happy, this is a guest..." Hearing what Happy said, Pepper, who was eager to work, turned around and looked behind him, "You go to work first, okay?"

"you sure?"

"Yes."

"Well, I won't go far, it's nearby." There was no other way, Happy could only choose to leave.

And when Happy left, Killian looked at him with some haze in his eyes, but he remembered that this guy embarrassed himself with Tony back then.

"What have you been doing since you joined aim?" After sending Happy away, Pepper also officially entered the working state, inviting him to sit down on the sofa.

"Biological technology." Killian took out a small box, took out a thing from it and installed it behind his ear, then threw the other three on the table, and then said very normally:
"My think tank is currently working on a small thing. I call this idea the ultimate creature... I'll darken it here and let you see..."

Killian pressed down and took out another remote control-like thing from the box. Under Pepper's amazed eyes, it really darkened the very bright reception room without the lights on.

Then, the three balls thrown by Killian on the table turned into a triangle, and then emitted countless light spots of different colors, accumulating into a starry sky.

"Uh, wait a minute, this is the pattern of the universe, I got it wrong..."

Seeing the starry sky being projected, Killian smiled at Pepper amusedly, and then fiddled with the thing that was just placed behind the ear, turning the original starry sky into the shape of a human head.

The human head is seen through, and the nerves composed of light spots inside are clearly visible. Pepper is not surprised by this. Although this virtual 3D technology is a very good technology, it is not surprising.

Killian continued: "This is what I'm going to show you...my brain!"

"Your brain? Wow..." Pepper was surprised at this moment. Virtual 3D is indeed nothing, but when it involves the human brain, it can be regarded as a very high technology.

After all, the human brain is still an unknown area for human beings. Being able to study things related to the brain shows that Killian's research is indeed very advanced.

However, this is obviously a matter of biotechnology, which is obviously inconsistent with the main direction of Stark Industries, but somewhat in line with Ron's research direction of Osborne Industries. Why did Killian find himself?
"Don't you believe it's my brain? Come on, let me prove it to you..." Seeing Pepper's puzzled look, Killian was a little bit wrong, thinking that Pepper didn't believe himself, so he stepped on it directly. When he got to the table, he stretched out his hand and invited Pepper to stand up too.

Faced with this invitation, Pepper did not refuse. After all, the other party is considered an acquaintance, and it is very likely that he will bring new orders to Stark Industries. It would be no harm to chat with the other party for a while.

Holding Pepper's hand together, Killian showed a smug smile. In order to avenge the past, he prepared a series of plans to deal with Tony Stark, and Pepper was the first.

"Come on, pinch me." After pulling Pepper to stand on the table, Killian continued to hold the other's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of pain."

Unable to stand Killian's enthusiasm, Pepper pinched him, and then, a certain nerve of the virtual 3D boss suddenly lit up, which was very miraculous.

"what is this?"

"This is the sensory cortex of the body, the pain-sensing center of the brain. If you pinch me, the brain will sense this signal and send out a warning." Killian explained with a smile, and then he asked Pepper to turn around, and then his left hand quickly Naturally, it rested on the other party's thin shoulders, as if holding Pepper, and pressed the remote control in his hand again to continue talking:
"And this, this is what I want to tell in depth..."

Following Killian's movements, a certain nerve in the 3D brain was enlarged a lot, and an empty place was displayed, presenting itself in front of the two of them.

"This is the ultimate creature. Up to now, the nerve restraint of the ultimate creature has been completely started and controlled. Send the model here..."

"This is essentially an empty slot, but it tells us that our brains and our dna systems still need to be developed and upgraded..."

At the end of the narration, Killian invited Pepper to get off the table in a very gentlemanly manner. Instead of taking a step forward in a hurry, he wanted to take his time.

"Pepper, do you know what this means?" Killian continued after putting away the virtual 3D and re-lighting the reception room.

"It means that any human being may be invaded, and the brain and dna may be reprogrammed. Once successful, a superhuman like Steve Rogers may not be a dream..."

"It's incredible!" Pepper expressed her surprise without concealing it, but Killian's actions just now made her very uncomfortable, so she didn't want to continue chatting with him, but said a little coldly .

"But Killian, this doesn't seem to be in line with the mechanical energy technology we Stark researched. Tony will definitely not be interested in this kind of technology of yours. In contrast, Mr. Ron and Norman Mr. Osborne's Osborne Industries, which specializes in biotechnology, would be a better choice for you, why didn't you go to them?"

"I haven't started looking for Osborne Industries yet, as for Tony..." Killian's face was slightly dissatisfied, and then disappeared in an instant.

"Pepper, do you still know that I actually approached Tony 13 years ago, but he rejected me in the end, but it's different now, the stark industrial circle is in charge of a new kindness, she Without being obedient to Tony, and less pretentious than Tony, I thought, we could be new partners!"

"Although I really want to help you, your research is indeed not in line with the direction of Stark Industries."

Although Killian was very enthusiastic, Pepper still rejected the other party, but in the end, she still did not give up on this possible potential customer, so she said: "But Killian, I know Mr. Ron from Osborne Industries, If you want to cooperate with him, I can introduce you, I believe you will have a successful cooperation!"

"Well, I have to say I'm very disappointed, but thank you, Osborne Industries, I'm going to visit..." Killian shrugged, he knew that Pepper would not agree to him, after all, the direction of the two companies It was inconsistent indeed, and he hadn't thought about succeeding.

His purpose is just to let Pepper see a different version of himself, so that the other party himself, he is no longer the poor boy before, and now he is a genius comparable to Tony Stark.

As for his talk of visiting Osborne Industries...

Heh, his goal is not to seek cooperation. The only thing he wants to do now is to take revenge on Tony Stark, the person who made him feel so embarrassed when he promised him back then, but never even saw him!

After talking here, the two sides had no intention of continuing the chat, but in order to pretend, Killian finally asked Pepper to call Ron to explain the matter.

"Hi, Ron, I'm Pepper..."

"The ultimate creature? Well, Pepper, tell that Killian not to leave, I'll be there in a while."

On the other side of the phone with Pepper, Ron became very interested in this matter after listening to the narration.

Pepper and Tony may not be clear, but Ron knows very well that Aldridge Killian is the biggest villain in "Iron Man 3", and a female biologist named Maya Hansen has developed a The 'Extremis Virus', which can directly explode people in place, is an extremely crazy guy.

And when I think about it, when he just acquired the ability, he even destroyed a laboratory of Aim, and met this guy. At that time, the other party didn't have the 'Extremis Virus'. Now that the plot has begun, he has to go Learn about it.
