Marvel Nephalem

Clark took out a bag of oolong tea bags with milk balls hanging from the drawer, threw the milk balls into the trash can under Joey's puzzled eyes, poured the tea leaves into the kettle to heat, and then continued: "After Annie and I go to the police, During the round, Dennis deployed two snipers, but I discovered them in time and solved them."

"Real sniper"

Even before releasing Clark on bail, Joey Bode had already read the information at the police station, but he still could not connect the deaths of 15 professional militants with an old man who was about the same age as him and was almost 70 years old. This was something he had known for many years. Habitual thinking developed through knowledge.

It wasn't until a physical mental pressure caused his blood pressure to rise rapidly, and he not only felt increasing fear, but also had hallucinations, that the fat old man's cognition was broken.

Joey first glanced at Clark, then looked around at the bizarre illusions that appeared in his eyes. After staring at the three confused black men, he reluctantly accepted the reality: "You just use this."

"It's much stronger than this. It can make you have a brain hemorrhage or go crazy in an instant."

The water in the kettle was already boiling. Clark picked up the teapot and gave each of them a cup. He picked up the kettle and signaled to the three black men. The other side said they had boiled water and no tea.

"I'll try it if I get a chance."

Joey, who had a tough mouth, took a sip of pure oolong tea and wrinkled his face in pain. Looking at Clark who seemed to be thinking about it, he really couldn't understand why there was a practice of drinking oriental tea without milk or sugar.

"After I found the gun he left under the sofa and the dent in the ground behind the sofa, I confirmed that Dennis wanted to kill Annie."

Clark put down the tea cup and continued with some sullenness: "Because I was worried that Anne would be overwhelmed by the tragedy after her great joy, so I taught him a lesson. I crushed his right shoulder blade, which is absolutely impossible to cure. "

"Then he took a month off and healed your incurable wound."

Old Joey laughed so hard that his fat body trembled. In fact, he was not happy, it was just a habit. After finding that Clark had no reaction to him, he sighed and said: "I guess Dennis is interested in Annie's business potential. He wants to kill you to try to control her. Although I don’t know why he is so eager for success, at least he knows the purpose.”

Clark lowered his eyebrows and waited for what was to come. Ever since he discovered the hidden purpose behind Old Joey's actions in the past 20 years, he took the initiative to accept the debt of gratitude left by his identity. Whether Joey held a grudge against him or not, Regardless of being mean, it all stems from jealousy and the unwillingness to make silent sacrifices that ultimately yield no results.

Old Joey stamped his cane vigorously, suddenly showed greed, and said emotionally: "But I think I can't stay out of it. From the moment I made the decision to see you, I became Dennis's enemy. Clark .Kent, I have never met you, and I have never heard of a small and unknown person like you, but because we are on the same page, I am willing to help you."

"I, Joey Bode, have extensive connections and countless wealth. I have a lot of money in Citibank. Senators have to listen to my advice to obtain campaign resources. The influence I have can make the mayor You bow your head and listen to me, but if you want my help, you have to pay equivalent chips."

Joey's voice gradually rose and he looked at Clark arrogantly, as if he was convinced: "I don't know, what price do you want to pay?"

The system shouted in Clark's mind: "Host, tell him that you can restore his youth. Don't worry about empty words. You only need to enter the sanctuary and get a bottle of perfect rejuvenation potion, and you can gradually restore his youth." , although the recovery speed is very slow, it can completely allow us to control this billionaire and use it to our advantage."

"Think about the lawyers who surround him like loyal dogs, and the power and influence he has worked hard to build in New York for hundreds of years. As long as he is willing to assist and protect us, he can completely overturn everything."

"Dennis Luther, Tony Stark, or those S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who are in charge of everything, do you hear that? He can make half the party speak for us."

Clark didn't listen at all to the system's chatter. He just patted Joey on the shoulder with a serious expression and said sincerely: "On behalf of Liv and Annie, I want to thank you for your efforts over the years. Thank you, Joey. I There won’t be any problems for you.”

When Joey Bode heard Clark's words, an arrogant and greedy expression froze on his face for a moment.

The two old men looked at each other, and he could read the sincere gratitude in Clark's eyes. The arrogance on his face and the greed in his eyes gradually faded away.

As his inner emotions changed, that old face gradually changed from jealousy to resentment, and from pain to regret.

Finally, he glared at Clark Kent, as if staring at an sworn enemy, and said angrily: "I had doubts before, but now I am very sure that you are the lucky one."

Joy Bode stood up and left. When he walked to the door, he said without looking back: "You don't have to worry about my safety. Protect Annie. If something goes wrong with her, you will find that I don't care about you at all."

With a loud bang on the open door, Joey left.

The black boy Bruce and Alfred looked at each other in deep thought. Alfred's black girlfriend timidly held her boyfriend's arm and wanted to leave.

Winnie was still in a coma, and obviously Joey's slamming the door and leaving didn't affect her.

Clark sat on the sofa, drinking tea calmly and listening to the systematic chatter in his mind.

"How dare a mortal threaten us? Do you want him to pay the price? He hasn't gone far yet. As long as you let go of your perception, I can make him crawl back crying and lick his words back."

Clark laughed in his mind and asked: "Honestly, what were you before becoming a system?"

The system immediately replied: "Pure human beings."

"You're not at all. You don't even have human emotions. There's no need to try to lure me into the place you're talking about. Your language traps are of no use to me."

After Clark sneered and dismantled the system, facing the system's disappearance without a trace, Clark looked out the window at the unobstructed view of the medical school campus with a hidden expression on his face.

He asked himself in his mind: "How much did Dennis discover and how much did he learn about me?"

Clinton Tower is three kilometers away in a straight line to the southwest.

Dennis Luther, dressed in a suit, was standing in front of the office window on the top floor, seemingly looking across the city from Clark Kent.

He stroked the mechanical arm on the right side through his clothes and thought to himself: "Damn Clark, how many things are you hiding?"
