Dark Paladin in Marvel

"Why?" Ivan Vanke still asked unwillingly.

Tony Stark looked at Ivan Vanko as if he were an alien.

"Why? Think about it, how big of a group is Stark Industries? How could it harm scientists just to monopolize a certain technology?"

Tony Stark said this, shrugged, then spread his hands and said.

"I can't remember exactly how many of the technologies currently mastered by the Stark Group were developed by other scientists, but I can tell you for sure that there are still many other scientists in the Stark Group who are researching them. Working on various projects..."

Speaking of this, Tony Stark's tone was full of contempt.

"Only trash guys like Hammer Industries can do this kind of thing. Stark Industries can completely buy the technology with money."

With Tony Stark's explanation, Ivan Vanko gradually gave up his struggle.

He is also an adult and naturally knows that what Tony Stark said makes sense.

If Stark Industries could really take advantage of its scientists just because it wanted to monopolize a certain technology, then the Stark Group would not be able to reach the level it is today.

They can indeed be bought with money, as long as you have the price, you can buy them out!

To be honest, there are indeed things in this world that the Stark Group cannot afford, but they are definitely no more than five fingers.

The Stark Group has been world-famous for its wealth since World War II.

Ivan Vanke has always been unwilling to believe it, just because he is unwilling to do so.

Otherwise, who should he seek revenge from?

The intelligence department of the beautiful country’s military?

Putting aside the fact that he, a solitary man, faced with such a behemoth as the military intelligence department, it would be tantamount to hitting an egg with an egg and hitting a stone with an egg. Even from a purely theoretical perspective, it might not make complete sense.

After knowing the truth, Ivan Vanke gradually understood that the tragedy that happened to his father was actually more caused by the tragedy of that era.

Ivan Vanke was at a loss again.

It is also because of similar experiences and growth processes that Tony Stark can empathize with, perhaps because Anton Vanke was once a colleague of his father.

Tony Stark looked at the confused Ivan Vanko and asked.

"Ivan, what are your plans next?"

After Ivan Vanko learned the truth, he no longer had the same attitude towards Tony Stark as he did when facing his enemies.

He smiled bitterly, "What else can I do? I plan to go back next."

Tony Stark glanced at Anduin, and Anduin gave him a very tacit look of affirmation, and then Tony Stark continued.

"Go back? Where do you plan to go back, Ivan? To the frozen plains of Siberia? Then live your life mediocrely?"

Facing Tony Stark's question, Ivan Vanke glanced at him, hesitant to speak.

What else can I do if I don't go back?

Is it possible to stay here, create an energy company like the Stark Group, and then compete with him in the energy market?

Although Ivan Vanke knew in his heart how big a market and piece of cake this would be.

However, he also understood that if he really did this, he would be looking for death!

Even if Tony Stark won't do anything to him, other related beneficiaries will.

This is not something that superheroes can solve, this is the social rule of a capital country.

Unless, like Anduin, he can fight against an entire country on his own, no one can escape this invisible bondage.

In the end, all these thoughts that turned over and over turned into an inexplicable sigh from Ivan Vanke's mouth.

"Eh……"

Ivan Vanke said nothing in the end. What was the use of saying it?

Is it possible that Tony Stark can still fight against the entire society?

On the other hand, Tony Stark is also a very perceptive person. He saw Ivan Vanke's thoughts.

"Ivan, you are just yourself. You should have your own life. Don't you know anything else besides the Ark Reactor? You should find your own way."

Ivan Vanko is not a fool. After Tony Stark reminded him, he immediately came to his senses.

Yup!

It’s not like I don’t know anything else except the Ark Reactor!

You know, if you want to be able to rub a reactor with your bare hands, you need to be proficient in many aspects of knowledge.

Various disciplines such as mechanics, physics, materials science, chemistry... etc.

With such a knowledge reserve in many disciplines, Ivan Vanke’s scientific research capabilities will not be too weak.

Of course, if Ivan Vanko could stay in Hell's Kitchen, at least the material aspect would be much better than returning to the Siberian permafrost.

"Then...shall I stay?"

Ivan Vanko looked at Anduin tentatively.

"Of course it's no problem, Ivan. You can join the scientific research team. Not only will your benefits and salary not be reduced, but they will also be increased."

This is Anduin's original intention, so he will naturally not disagree at this time.

In order to express his sincerity, he even improved Ivan Vanke's treatment.

Killing Ivan Vanko would indeed allow Tony Stark to monopolize the Ark reactor technology.

but……

Let’s not talk about whether Tony Stark will agree with his approach. In Anduin’s view, this is a waste of Ivan Vanke’s wisdom.

Talent is the most precious thing in the world.

Anduin is also willing to believe that people who can rub the Ark reactor with their hands like Tony Stark will definitely not be mediocre in their future achievements!

As for Ivan Vanke, after his "revenge plan" was exposed, Anduin not only did not cancel his high salary, but actually got a higher salary.

This made Ivan Vanke even more moved, and even the last bit of grudge in his heart completely disappeared.

……

In the end, with the cooperation of Anduin and Tony Stark, Ivan Vanko rejoined the Hell's Kitchen research team.

Of course, this time he joined with his true identity.

As for the problem that Ivan Vanke himself was smuggled from abroad, it is naturally not a problem at all. For Tony Stark, who has the ability to make money, making Ivan Vanke's identity legal only requires a fight. Just a phone call.

The misunderstanding was resolved, and Ivan Vanke also had a legal identity and could start over.

After solving these problems, Ivan Vanke left the reception room with a grateful heart. He will next go to the scientific research team to report.

After Ivan Vanko left, Tony Stark looked at Anduin.

"Hey! Man, have you known these things for a long time?" Tony Stark pointed at the information on Anduin's desk and said, "Why didn't you tell me!"

Anduin smiled awkwardly.

Tell you in advance?

If he had told Tony Stark this in advance, Tony Stark might have approached Ivan Vanko himself.

Although the relationship between Tony Stark and Howard Stark does not seem to be very good, he is still his father after all. If outsiders misunderstand his father, Tony Stark can definitely do such a thing!

However, in this "trap plan" for Ivan Vanko, although Anduin dislikes using Tony Stark as bait, one thing will not change.

That is, he will never let Tony Stark really be in any danger.

"By the way, Stark, didn't you just say that the banquet is ready?" Anduin changed the subject stiffly, "When can the banquet start?"

Tony Stark glanced at Anduin funny.

What a poor swivel chair conversation skills!

However, just as Anduin understood him, he also understood Anduin, and he also knew that Anduin would never put him in danger.

Therefore, Tony Stark is not really angry from beginning to end.

He just blamed Anduin for not telling him.

He can totally cooperate with the acting!

Could it be that you can't trust your acting skills?

But now that the matter has passed, there is no point in blaming. Tony Stark just smiled and shook his head and put the matter behind him.

"Well, that's right, man, the banquet is now ready." Tony Stark looked down at his watch as he spoke, "It should start in less than half an hour."

"Then let's go ahead of time and don't keep our guests waiting too long. After all, this is the first official contact between Earth and Asgard."

Anduin smiled, he was about to get up.

But at this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang.

"Ring Ling Ling..."

Anduin glanced down at the number displayed on the phone screen. He frowned, looked up at Tony Stark, and shook the phone screen at him.

"Man, I'm sorry, you go there by yourself first, I'll go there in a while."

Tony Stark also looked unhappy when he saw the number displayed on the screen of Anduin's phone.

He didn't say anything more, just nodded and turned to leave Anduin's office.

Fortunately, Master Ancient One is here, so we are not afraid of any misunderstandings when the two civilizations come into contact for the first time...

……

Anduin took up the Arc after Tony Stark left.

"Hey, Nick Fury. Are you okay? If you're okay, I still have something to do, so hang up first."

The caller was none other than Director Black Braised Egg of S.H.I.E.L.D.

This time Nick Fury's phone number did not use those messy hidden numbers, but the private mobile phone number he had left for Anduin before.

"Hey, Anduin, I do have something to do with you." Nick Fury's voice could already hear a bit of fatigue, "What happened in Hell's Kitchen just now?"

In fact, Nick Fury himself would not have taken the initiative to call Anduin if he had no other choice.

Because the previous attack on SHIELD nursing home has not yet had a specific result, and now the entire SHIELD is at war with other large intelligence organizations in the world. Not to mention being beaten back and forth, but at least he is the head of the authority. Yes, I can't leave my office at all.

There is no way, who let the secret agent profession be all about concealment and surprise. There are simply too many unexpected situations in the overt and covert fights between the two sides!

He must pay attention at all times and direct various departments to make corresponding adjustments.

All this had already exhausted him physically and mentally.

But there was no way. Not long ago, the scene of the rainbow bridge falling from the sky into Hell's Kitchen was clearly visible in the dark night.

As long as you are not blind, you can see it.

Nick Fury is naturally no exception. At the same time, SHIELD's energy detection device also detected that this rainbow falling from the sky contains huge energy.

This is obviously a supernatural event happening on Earth. In fact, this is the job of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Therefore, Nick Fury could only bite the bullet and make this call.

"Ah? What happened? Nothing happened." Anduin pretended to be dumbfounded, not wanting to talk about Asgard at all.

It wasn't Anduin who was afraid of SHIELD reaching out to Asgard.

It's because it's really hard for him to trust SHIELD.

Putting aside the Hydra mixed in with SHIELD, SHIELD's own attitude towards these "supernatural events" alone is not suitable for them to come into contact with Odin and the others now.

Perhaps because they are used to being domineering, what SHIELD is most willing to do is that it does not have the strength to match its ambitions.

But it cannot affect the attitude of Odin, an ally and a big donor, towards the civilization of the earth!

Seeing Anduin pretending to be dumbfounded, Nick Fury didn't bother to pretend anymore. He directly pointed it out to Anduin.

"Anduin, is there an extraterrestrial civilization visiting the earth?"

There was no trace of embarrassment on Anduin's face that his lie had been exposed, and he was even a little curious.

"How did you know?"

Nick Fury sighed.

"When Captain Marvel was still on Earth, I had contact with other extraterrestrial civilizations. Don't worry, this time I just asked in a private capacity. Now SHIELD has no extra energy to intervene in this matter. No, I just hope that you will contact extraterrestrial civilizations from the perspective of the entire earth..."

Anduin couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Nick Fury's explanation is indeed very reasonable. After all, in the original plot, Captain Marvel and the young Black Braised Egg made a big fuss on the alien planet.

But as for what Nick Fury said later about contacting extraterrestrial civilizations from the perspective of the entire earth...

Arrived late.

It's a familiar recipe, and it's a familiar taste.

Another moral kidnapping!

This time it still caught up with the entire earth.

"Okay, Nick Fury!" Anduin interrupted Nick Fury impatiently and said unceremoniously, "I have my own way of dealing with this matter, and I don't need you to point it out. . If you have this time to worry, you might as well find the forces behind the nursing home attack."

Anduin knew it very well.

The reason why he can coexist peacefully with Odin is not only because the earth and Asgard are allies.

After all, even among allies, there are strong and weak ones.

The more reason for being able to get along as equals is strength!

Equality in strength can lead to equal exchanges.

"..."

Nick Fury was speechless for a moment when Anduin scolded him.

However, he was still very happy at this time.

Fortunately, this time the extraterrestrial civilization landed in Hell's Kitchen, on Anduin's territory.

Although he has been tricked and blackmailed by Anduin many times, Nick Fury is still very confident in Anduin.

Although this guy has many shortcomings in his character, he can definitely handle the big things right and wrong, and he is even less likely to be a "ball rapist".

However, this guy shouldn't be blackmailing those "aliens"... right?

"Okay, I'll die if nothing happens!"

Anduin hung up the phone immediately after speaking, turned around and walked out of his office, then turned and walked towards the Prison of Holy Light.

Don’t let the big benefactor wait too long!

We have to let them "pay" happily!
