Marvel: I Inherited the Kingdom of Shadows

Although Tony seldom came to the company during this time, he would ask her out occasionally, and the relationship between the two had improved by leaps and bounds.

Originally, she thought that she already had some status in Tony's heart, but now it seems that she is still not as good as Potts, and she felt a little wronged for a while.

Tony didn't pay attention to this at all, not to mention that Natasha is from S.H.I.E.L.D., even if she doesn't have any background, she is just a vase.

It doesn't matter if you have fun once in a while, let her take care of the company, unless Tony's brain is flooded.

Just then, a call came in, "Mr. Tony, a Mr. Nick Fury is looking for you."

Listening to the call from the front desk, Tony frowned, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

"Nick? What is he doing here?"

"Let him come up."

"Okay, Mr. Tony."

After hanging up the phone, Tony turned his head and looked at Natasha behind him with a smile; "Your immediate boss is here, do you want to meet?"

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Natasha's face, and she quickly said, "No, you guys talk, I'll go out first."

After speaking, he walked out of the office quickly.

She has been here with Tony for a while, and not only did she not get any information, but she even put herself in it.

Therefore, when she heard Nick's arrival, she was not at all happy. Instead, she was a little apprehensive, and naturally she didn't want to meet him.

Regarding this, Tony didn't force it. He straightened his collar and waited silently. He wanted to see what Nick wanted from him.

Soon, the door of the office was pushed open and Nick walked in.

Tony didn't greet him either, he sat on the office chair carelessly, and said with a smile: "A rare visitor, why is Director Nick coming to me when he is free?"

After finishing speaking, a trace of curiosity flashed in Tony's eyes. He really didn't guess Nick's reason for coming.

And Nick was too lazy to procrastinate, not even interested in being polite.

"To tell you the truth, I came here today to find you for alms."

"Almsgiving?"

A strange look flashed across Tony's face, this guy actually knew the vocabulary of his hometown.

"Why, the mighty S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to beg for alms with me, a petty citizen?"

"You are not a petty citizen. If the richest people are all petty bourgeois, then there will be no rich people in this world."

Nick said something strange, and continued.

"To tell you the truth, during the riots in Manhattan last time, many citizens' properties were severely damaged, and we, SHIELD, are responsible for compensation."

"But we have no money now, so I hope you can come up with a sum of money to compensate."

"I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out that they were here to ask for money."

"I am short of everything, except money."

"But why should I give it to you?"

Tony smiled back.

Nick frowned suddenly.

"Don't forget, you are the one behind the Manhattan incident."

"What's the matter? Go and sue me."

Tony said confidently.

Seeing this, Nick had a headache on his face. If he could, he really didn't want to deal with Tony.

But there is no way, who made him short of money.

"Stop talking nonsense, just tell me how I am willing to pay."

Nick said impatiently, and Tony laughed when he heard this.

He likes to talk to smart people, as he said, he is not short of money, but he will not give money for nothing.

As for the compensation, does it have anything to do with him?

But there is no shortage of money, but he lacks other things, such as some special control materials.

Although the chaebols are powerful, there are always some things that the chaebols cannot easily do.

Such as special metals like vibrating gold.

This kind of material is not only rare, even if a big chaebol like Tony wants to get it, it will be very troublesome.

If it can be purchased directly from S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony is more than happy to spend a sum of money.

Although he has no use for these special materials for the time being, it does not prevent him from storing them.

"Well, you provide me with some special materials, and I will give you 50 billion yuan."

Tony made a direct quotation, and Nick felt a bit of a toothache when he heard it. He could only say that he was worthy of the title of the richest man, and his mouth was 50 billion.

Nick is very satisfied with this offer, but he still wants to fight for his request.

But before he could speak, Tony already knew what he was going to say.

He didn't have time to bargain, so he said directly: "If you agree, nod your head, if you don't agree, the door to the office is over there, just walk slowly."

Seeing Tony's look of being completely determined by himself, Nick frowned, wanting to show the toughness of the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

But thinking about the compensation for those 10,000+ people, he still compromised.

Firstly, Tony's price is really sincere, secondly, it's not that he can't get those things, it's just more complicated.

That being the case, whether you agree or not has no effect at all, it is nothing more than a matter of spending a little more effort.

So, he finally bowed his head.

"I agree to your request. You make a list of the materials, and I will send them to you later. Pay the money first."

Hearing this, Tony smiled and nodded, not embarrassing this guy anymore.

You always have to save face for others, right?

A phone call was made, and Tony paid 50 billion yuan out of the company's account.

After finishing this matter, Nick didn't bother to stay any longer, so he got up and left directly. Tony pretended to stay for a while, but in fact he didn't have much sincerity at all.

And just as the two of them completed this improper transaction, on the other side, in a biological research company, a figure was sneaking into it.

Life Fund Laboratory, New York's top testing institution.

Eddie Brock walked cautiously in the metal corridor of the laboratory, his eyes full of vigilance.

He is a reporter. He heard about the appalling event that the Life Fund was conducting human experiments. In order to get a promotion and raise his salary, and for the sake of justice in his heart, he sneaked into the Life Fund on his off day to investigate the inside story, and wanted to dig out a big news.

Perhaps it was God's blessing that this guy sneaked into the life fund's laboratory without being discovered, and the whole process went very smoothly.

However, he didn't find the news he was looking for, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed for a while.

And when he passed by a laboratory, he didn't notice that a ball of black liquid was slowly dripping down from above the ventilation duct and landed on his shoulder.

Until there was more and more black liquid, he finally reacted, with a look of panic on his face, he wanted to tear these things off his body.

But just as he moved, the black liquid seemed to come alive, and quickly wrapped around his body, trying to merge with him.

The piercing pain filled his body, and Eddie screamed in an instant, which completely alarmed the security personnel in the laboratory.

For a moment, a large number of guards rushed towards his direction, and after they arrived, the black liquid that fell on Eddie's body finally merged with him completely.

A monster with a dark body and a long tongue suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
