Marvel Begins with Karna’s Gift

"Let me see if there is any more valuable information..biquge"

Spreading a few newspapers that he had picked up on the bed, Qiao looked for information that could serve as news.

After reading two newspapers in a row without any results, Joe seemed a little discouraged, but he still picked up the third one, a newspaper called Brooklyn Morning News, which was a newspaper on the th, that is, three days. forward.

This newspaper finally made his eyes light up.

"According to our reporter in Afghanistan, Tony Stark, chairman of Stark Industries, was attacked by a terrorist organization in Afghanistan yesterday afternoon and his whereabouts are still unknown."

"According to descriptions on the scene, three Humvee vehicles were blown up, and the twelve American soldiers accompanying them for protection were killed. There is currently no news that a terrorist organization has come forward to take responsibility for this. It is expected that in the next period of time, Star Ke Industrial’s stock will enter a trough period of sharp decline..."

In addition to the initial news of Tony Stark's disappearance, the approximately one thousand written reports contained more speculations about the subsequent actions of Stark Industries, which made Joe seem a little excited.

Such a piece of news alone is enough for Joe to determine the timeline in which he is in the Marvel world.

‘Iron Man 1’ is when the Marvel world just started.

This time period is a relatively peaceful period. All kinds of monsters and monsters in the Marvel world have not appeared, Captain America is sleeping, Thor has not been exiled, and the only relatively active superheroes are probably Widow and Hawkeye.

The fighting ability of the two is okay compared to ordinary people, but they are like scum against superheroes.

After knowing the news, Qiao's hanging heart gradually dropped.

The fact that Iron Man hasn't appeared yet means that the Marvel rhythm hasn't started yet, and this time period is not particularly dangerous.

He has a lot of time to stabilize his development and make himself stronger.

After all, there are many things in this world that can be exchanged. Iron Man's design drawings, the core of the power furnace, and the Hulk's blood should all allow him to exchange for things of the same value from the system.

Thinking of this, Qiao couldn't help but make his own calculations in his heart.

Now, Nini was captured by a group of muscle brothers and taken to an unknown cave to build humans... Bah, in the business of building robots, Qiao could definitely use this opportunity to get the design drawings of the Mark Generation.

That is if he can find the location where Tony Stark was captured.

In this case, he would not only be able to obtain the design drawings of Mark's generation, but also gain the friendship of that wealthy and prodigal son. Those terrorist organizations that call themselves freedom fighters are just a bunch of melons. With Karna's gift, he can definitely divide them. Defeating their existence every minute, this task is completely giving away points.

perfect!

Thinking this, Qiao seemed very excited.

……

The next day, early in the morning,

As soon as the alarm went off early in the morning, Joe left the hotel in a hurry.

In the square across the street, elderly people are walking and feeding pigeons.

Young people skateboarding to work or school,

Everyone is busy with their own things, and Joe is planning to find a place to get an identity first, and then get some money to buy a ticket to Afghanistan, and then set off to find Tony Stark. 's whereabouts.

After wandering around for a long time, Joe finally found a bar called St. Ma's Bridge.

"Hey, young man, this place is closing soon."

It was obviously early in the morning, but the old man wiping the wine glass at the bar said this.

"I need an ID!"

Joe seemed not to have heard what he said. He casually walked to the counter and sat down on the revolving counter. He rested his elbows on the black-painted wooden counter and looked at the old man who was wiping the goblet with a flannel cloth.

The old man was about sixty years old. His silver hair had already become sparse. He looked a bit like half or one-third of Germanic descent. He had a pair of gold-rimmed reading glasses on the bridge of his nose and was looking at the visitors who did not belong to this country.

"Sorry, guest, you need to go to the immigration office for proof of identity. This is a pub. If you need drinks, I can provide service. How about a glass of whiskey? A martini is also good."

Glancing at Qiao on the revolving chair, the old man didn't miss a beat in his movements.

Although it is not stated explicitly, the implication is that ‘I don’t have the services you need here’.

"Then give me a glass of brandy with ice!"

After thinking for a moment, Joe tapped the counter with his index finger, making a 'dong-dong' sound.

The old man sighed softly, put down the clean flannel and the goblet in his hand, and gave Joe a glass of brandy with ice. Then he looked at the outsider curiously and asked, "I'm curious, where did you get the news from?" .”

"So, it's an admission!"

After taking the glass and taking a sip of the strong drink, Joe asked with a hint of confusion.

The old man didn't reply, neither agreed nor vetoed.

Qiao didn't care about the old man's attitude, but chuckled and said,

"I met a few dumb gangsters last night, and I managed them a bit and asked about some things."

"150 dollars!"

The old man shook his head helplessly, obviously believing what he said.

"Leave your name and age and pick it up in three hours."

Joe shrugged, picked up the frosty liquor and drank it in one gulp, then took out a black wallet from the pocket of his hooded jacket, took out several whole bills of varying denominations from the wallet and handed it over.

The old man took the banknotes in his hand and counted them, then took out a pen and paper from the counter and pushed it in front of Joe. He took the paper and pen and wrote his name and age on the blank paper before handing it to the old man.

"My name is Bernard. Just come here and report my name in three hours."

"Thank you for your generosity and fair price."

"kindness!"

The old man nodded and didn't say much. He just waved his hand to indicate that he could leave.

Qiao didn't linger, put the black wallet in his pocket and turned around to leave.
