Chapter 186: Pull out the carrot and bring out the mud

【Ding! You defeated the super villain Dr. Doom and guarded the peace of New York. 】

[Rewards are being settled...]

[Reward: 6,000 points. 】

[Points: 19206. 】

"Not bad." Bai Ye nodded with satisfaction and said to himself: "This is already a shocking price of 12 yuan, worthy of Doctor Destruction's worth."

The method used to destroy Victor Doom in the white night was originally the means used by Tony and War Machine Rhodes to destroy Ivan Vanko. The collision of the pulse cannons of two steel armors would produce incredible power, but I didn't expect it now. , was used by Ivan Vanke and Bai Ye on Victor Doom.

In fact, Bai Ye also knew about this and let Ivan Vanke discover it when he guided him to test the performance of the steel armor.

He felt that this discovery might be used in the future, and it was actually used now.

Victor Doom, who couldn't be solved by a simple steel armor, was solved.

"So there is still such a use for steel armor?" Tony asked in surprise: "Why didn't I notice it, but you discovered it by Bai Ye?"

Bai Ye: "Haha, I just often test the performance of the steel armor in actual combat, including long-range bombing and hand-to-hand combat, but your physical skills are too weak, so you just focus on building armor, right?"

Tony had nothing to say.

He spent much more time on improving and manufacturing the armor than on actual combat exercises. He learned more about the power of the steel armor through Jarvis simulation exercises.

"As expected of Howard Stark's son, he probably spent all his strength on the woman's belly." Ivan Vanke mocked.

He looked left and right, looking displeased at Tony.

Speaking of which, this was the first official meeting between Ivan Vanke and Tony.

As for Tony, in the past when someone hurt him like this, he would definitely retort, but when it was Ivan Vanko's turn, he could only pretend he didn't hear.

Because he felt so guilty about Ivan Vanke.

According to the information he investigated, even though it had been heavily deleted and only a few scratches were left, it can be inferred from Tony's IQ that it seems that his father Howard was indeed a bit unkind. Anthony Vanke invented the Ark Reactor with him. But they drove them back to the Soviet Union, took over all the patents for the Ark Reactor, did not give Anthony Vanke any financial compensation, and allowed him to grow potatoes in Siberia for more than 20 years...

"Something's not right! With Victor Doom's physical strength, no matter what, he shouldn't have been blown up without leaving any traces."

Tony frowned and called up the footage of Victor Doom being swallowed up by the explosion, captured by the surveillance camera.

Bai Ye and Ivan Vanke just made a noise. It was too sudden and caught people off guard. Everyone was instinctively avoiding the bright light and shock waves. However, the artificial intelligence Jarvis would not be misled and truthfully photographed Victor. ·The whole process of Doom’s disappearance.

"You mean, Victor is not dead?"

Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards heard Tony's question and quickly came over to watch the surveillance footage with Tony.

His mood was complicated and difficult to understand.

Before this, Reed was a nerd who was bent on pursuing technological breakthroughs. He had no military training and suddenly gained superpowers. Of course, it was impossible to immediately transform into a warrior mentality. In this regard, he was as green as a young man who graduated from college and entered the society. , so he would definitely be afraid, afraid that he, Susan and the other four would be killed by Doom.

At the same time, he felt a little guilty that he had caused Doom to go bankrupt, because there was really a problem with his project, and it had objectively caused Doom misery.

Now that he heard that Victor Doom was not killed, Reed was relieved, because he felt that he might still have a chance to pull Victor Doom back to the right path to make up for his mistakes.

"No way?" Johnny complained: "We gathered so many people this time, but we still failed to take down Doom. If he wants to kill us Fantastic Four again in the future, then we will be in misery. "

Even Johnny had to admit that no one of the Fantastic Four was a match for Victor Doom alone.

After all, Victor Doom is a master of both magic and martial arts.

The surveillance video was very clear and clearly recorded that when Bai Ye and Ivan Vanke's pulse cannons collided and exploded, Victor Doom himself was panicked. He did not expect that Bai Ye and Ivan Vanke would Able to burst out with such powerful power.

However, at a certain moment, a ring on Victor Doom's hand shattered with a "pop", and a black mist enveloped Victor Doom...

With the explosion, Victor Doom also disappeared.

"I don't think it's like Doom was blown up..." Tony thought: "It's more like...a space jump?"

"It's not impossible." Reed also felt that Victor Doom didn't seem to have been killed, and said: "All five of us have obtained superpowers, but there is not only one superpower, Susan There are two of them, invisibility and force field control. Victor also showed two, steel body and electric current control. If he actually hid a third power that he didn't even discover, he only suddenly used it at the critical moment of life and death. It makes perfect sense if it comes out.”

Bai Ye touched his chin and said, "I think this is not a supernatural power, but more like... magic!"

"Magic?" Tony raised his eyebrows and said, "Bai Ye, when did you change your profession to become a magician? How could there be such an unscientific thing as magic in this world?"

"Tony, you are too arrogant. If you don't know something, it doesn't exist." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "Science is not as unique as you think. Maybe... magic is just a science you don't understand. ?”

"Wait!" Susan suddenly shouted and said, "Look at Victor's hand. When he was facing a life-and-death crisis, his ring exploded. And I remember, Victor said, this is A relic left by his mother, and Victor's mother seems to be a gypsy witch... Maybe it was the magic artifact left by Victor's mother that saved him just now."

This white night knew that Cynthia, the mother of Dr. Doom Victor Doom, was indeed a gypsy witch, proficient in many kinds of spells and black magic. Since her tribe has been oppressed by the royal family for a long time, in order to punish them, she made a deal with the devil and used her soul in exchange for power. After gaining power, she slaughtered the village like a demon, even the children were not spared. When she wakes up and is horrified by what she has done, she gives up her demon-given powers, is stabbed by a dying guard, and dies in her husband's arms. Because she had a deal with the devil, after her death, her soul was taken away by the big devil Mephisto, and her soul was trapped in hell and tortured forever.

It is indeed possible that Victor Doom has the magic tools made by her mother, and even he himself has a strong talent for learning magic. Therefore, later, Doctor Doom and Divine Lord Doom were able to become technologically capable and Iron Man is on par with Doctor Strange in magic, becoming a top villain with both science and magic skills.

"Is there really such a thing as magic in this world?" Tony felt incredible.

"Yes." Bai Ye nodded: "It's just that you haven't encountered them before. Of course, magicians are not as powerful as you think. They are also mortal bodies. They are bombarded by missiles and can't be killed."

"Have you encountered it?"

"not yet!"

"Cut!"*n

Bai Ye didn't care about these ignorant guys. He looked towards Eastern Europe and murmured: "Perhaps the next time I see Victor Doom, I will meet the Doctor of Destruction, the God-King Doom, who is both skilled in magic and martial arts, right?" I wonder how many points Doom will get if he causes trouble at that time?"

…

Latovilla.

A black mist enveloped Victor Doom, who looked frightened, and appeared here.

Victor Doom was really frightened just now, he smelled the breath of death.

terrible!

"This is?"

Victor Doom's vision flashed from the metropolis of New York to a desolate abandoned village in front of him. It didn't look like an architectural style in the 21st century, but more like a relic from the feudal era.

But Victor Doom's eyes became blurred.

Because if he remembered correctly, this seemed to be his childhood home.

Doom also noticed the broken ring on his hand:

"Did my mother save me and bring me back here?"

He walked into the village. The roads were overgrown with weeds and the houses on both sides were dilapidated. Windows are broken, roofs are leaking, and many houses are abandoned and left to the elements. In an abandoned courtyard, several thorns grew wildly, covering half of the house. Through the gaps between the thorns, you can see the once gorgeous wood carvings and exquisite masonry. They have lost their former glory under the ravages of time.

This village is located among the mountains, shrouded in sparse clouds and mist, like a pearl left in the world. At that time, there were only a hundred residents in the village. They had worked hard on this barren land for generations and lived a quiet and difficult life. However, as time went by, the village was gradually forgotten by the world, until now, it has become a deserted and dilapidated place.

There was a sense of silence and desolation in the air. The sun shines through the sparse fog into every corner of the village, illuminating the silent houses and dilapidated streets.

Walking on the path, you can hear the low sound of the wind blowing through the empty houses, as if memories of the past are whispering in your ears.

Doom came to the door of his house, which was almost covered with weeds and dust due to no one maintaining it for a long time.

He thought for a long time.

Somehow, Doom spent a lot of effort to tidy up his former home and make it look like new. He stared at it blankly for a long time, then picked up the torch and threw it into the house, watching helplessly. He watched it burn into a raging fire.

Who would have thought.

A black notebook slowly emerged from the raging fire of Doom's house.

…

Pluto Security.

Corporate building, penthouse.

Knox stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, looking at all the people in New York, and said with a smile:

"Bai Ye, I really believe it. New York feels more chaotic than the Middle East right now. A super villain appears every now and then, and this time it actually caused a power outage in half of New York, tsk tsk."

"Doctor Doom, Victor Doom, is very powerful. I almost couldn't do anything to him."

Bai Ye poured himself a glass of wine and drank it down.

"Then he is indeed powerful." Knox said, "But the more powerful the better, so that our business can grow bigger and bigger."

During this time, Pluto Security's reputation has gradually grown.

There is no way around it. In New York, a dangerous place where super villains often appear, a team of super-powered bodyguards like Pluto Security suddenly appeared. Those wealthy people who care about their lives must be willing to spend a small amount of money to ensure their own safety.

then.

Pluto Security's business is naturally getting better and better.

"The quality of the business is secondary. As long as we don't suffer huge losses, our most important goal is to maintain a strong standing force." Bai Ye said: "You must grasp this balance. In addition, don't forget In order to strengthen the protection around you, protecting yourself is the most important. Without you, where would I find a CEO who is so suitable for Pluto Security?"

"Then you might as well let me be injected with the Extremis virus." Knox said: "No matter how many bodyguards the Extremis Warriors have, they will definitely not be as stable as turning into the Extremis Warriors myself."

"It's coming, it's coming." Bai Ye took another sip of red wine and said, "After solving the crisis of Doctor Doom with Tony, I had a chat with him. Both Extremis Virus 2.0 and Extremis Virus 3.0 have made great progress. Progress is about to break through, and once Extremis Virus 3.0 is successful, you will be able to obtain the perfect version of enhancements, so there is no need to rush."

"real or fake?"

Knox looked at Bai Ye excitedly.

In fact, to be honest, Knox thinks that she can accept the injection of the Extremis virus with a success rate of 60%, because she feels that her luck cannot be that bad, and a 60% chance of gaining superpowers is enough for her. Let's take a gamble. Of course, if she can obtain a desperate virus with a higher success rate of strengthening, she won't be hypocritical.

Bai Ye sighed: "Of course it's true, but..."

"Just what?"

Knox wanted to give Bai Ye a slap in the face. He hated people who spoke half-talk.

"Based on the operations of these two bastards, Tony and Serol Stern, it is predicted that the perfect Extremis virus version 3.0 will cost US$50 million to manufacture." Bai Ye pinched his eyebrows and said with a headache: "You know , the price of an ordinary Extremis virus is only US$2 million. I thought that the developed version of Extremis virus 3.0 would be at most ten times more expensive, to US$20 million, but I didn’t expect... It would be so special A unit worth US$50 million has increased 25 times.”

The Extremis virus costs US$50 million per tube. If Baiye wants to sell it and spread the R\u0026D and manufacturing costs, it will cost at least US$500 million per tube. How many people can afford it? It seems that this thing has no other use except for its own people. All the costs have to be borne by Bai Ye himself. This thing is in his hands.

"Forget it, just think it's for the old man and Harry!"

Bai Ye said helplessly.

In any case, the development of version 3.0 of the Extremis virus is still necessary. At least the genetic disease retroplasia, which has been passed down from generation to generation in the Osborn family, can be cured.

"The factory cost alone is 50 million U.S. dollars?" Knox was also shocked: "How expensive? Isn't it many times more expensive than the same amount of gold? It seems... the salary you gave me is... Welfare, it will take a long time to earn enough to afford one, right?"

"You don't have to pay!" Bai Ye waved his hand and said, "They are all our own. I will definitely give you this benefit for free."

The CEOs of Baiye's major companies will definitely be injected with version 3.0 of this desperate virus for free, because Baiye needs them to live well, stabilize the company for himself, and earn more profits.

Otherwise, they have too many resources and power in their hands, and they don't have much resistance. If they are assassinated, Bai Ye's loss will be more than 50 million US dollars.

Bai Ye said distressedly: "Just to inject version 3.0 of this desperate virus into our own people as welfare benefits, I would have to spend at least 2 billion U.S. dollars, which is enough for a small and medium-sized country to fight a war."

"Well done!" Knox gave Bai Ye a thumbs up and said with admiration: "You have completely subverted your previous image of a vampire capitalist in my mind. It is said that no capitalist has a heart that is not evil. I didn't expect it. Black-hearted capitalists like you can occasionally be less black-hearted."

"I'm not a black-hearted capitalist!" Bai Ye snorted coldly and said: "Who told you that capitalists must be black-hearted? Although the great philosopher Marx said that exploitation comes from capital, capital comes to the world, from head to toe, everyone The pores are dripping with blood and dirty things; but another great philosopher Musk said that exploitation comes from power, not capital. Without the support of power, capital will naturally please customers and employees, how dare Act wantonly!"

"The really evil ones are the White House and Capitol Hill, and I am the kind of good capitalist who keeps to himself as Musk said!"

Knox looked confused and said, "I know Marx, but who is this great philosopher Musk?"

Bai Ye: "Musk is my little brother."

Knox: "..."

"Tch, you are really not blushing when you say this. Are you using your younger brother's words to endorse yourself?" Knox said speechlessly: "Maybe there are really good capitalists in this world, but this person is absolutely It won’t be you Bai Ye.”

"How dare you make malicious assumptions about me?"

Bai Ye became angry and slapped Knox on the butt:

"It seems like I can't do it if I don't teach you a lesson. Kneel down! Kneel down!"

Well, to be honest, Knox’s waist and buttocks look like he is suitable for giving birth!

Knox gave Bai Ye a roll of his eyes, but did not refuse. He drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, knelt down in front of Bai Ye and gently shook his hips. After all, Bai Ye planned to give her 50 million for free. U.S. dollars, what if I don’t give you some benefits?

When Bai Ye received a call from Tony, Bai Ye pulled out the radish and brought it out of the mud, sat down on the floor in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and answered Tony's call.
