CH 15

Chapter 15: Brotherhood of Mutants? That’s it?

In the past, when Nick Fury found other people and told them that they were targeted by the Mutant Brotherhood.

Those people would panic without exception and then beg for shelter from SHIELD.

This trick was a test of courage, and Nick Fury often relied on this trick to make a lot of oil and water.

If it weren’t for Magneto to be an extreme mutant supremacist, some people would even wonder if Magneto and Nick Fury were in collusion.

One for intimidation, the other for protection. It was a perfect match.

But this move came in front of Ye Bai. However, it did not achieve the effect that Nick Fury had expected.

Nick Fury even faintly felt that Ye Bai was relieved when he heard that he was being targeted by the Mutant Brotherhood.

Was this because Ye Bai thought that the Brotherhood of mutant couldn’t threaten him?

Nick Fury deserved to be the king of agents. His ability to observe words and body language was amazing.

Only with Ye Bai’s tone and change of expression, he guessed Ye Bai’s inner thoughts.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that Ye Bai had no intention of hiding them.

“The Magneto of the Mutant Brotherhood is staring at me. Why?”

To be honest, Ye Bai really didn’t think it was a big deal to be targeted by mutants.

But Ye Bai was still a little puzzled. Why were the mutants staring at him?

In theory, shouldn’t mutants target those high-level government officials who persecute them?

Was it because of Professor-X?

“Don’t you know how high your value is now?”

Nick Fury was helpless. He found that he and Ye Bai were not on the same channel at all.

And Ye Bai really didn’t have the slightest sense of being a billionaire.

Other billionaires, although their wealth was higher than that of Ye Bai, most of their net wealth were properties owned in their names, and they were not transferable.

Ye Bai was different. His net worth was cash flow, which was very rare.

Which meant that as long as Ye Bai was dealt with, anyone could get the billions of dollars from Ye Bai.

By the way, with the recent rise in Stark Group’s stock price, Ye Bai’s net worth was now approaching tens of billions.

Such a huge windfall. How could anyone not be tempted?

In fact, in the past few days, Kingpin had helped Ye Bai deal with several batches of gangsters who were planning to attack him.

“In other words, Magneto is interested in my money?”

Ye Bai frowned, grasping the key to the problem.

Nick Fury nodded and approved of Ye Bai’s guess.

Wealth was touching. Even in the Marvel world, a batch of sky-high wealth would attract the coveting of many people.

Not to mention that the Mutant Brotherhood itself was short of money, and for them it was easier to target Ye Bai.

“In addition to your own wealth, your huge social reputation is also a big reason for such trouble.”

“Think about it. If they control you, and then use your reputation to speak for the mutants, how much impact will it have on the world?”

Nick Fury said to Ye Bai sharply.

In addition to the apparent value, Ye Bai also had this huge hidden value.

Ye Bai was an author and the most outstanding genius writer in recent years.

In today’s United States, almost everyone was a reader of Ye Bai.

One could imagine how much influence Ye Bai would have if he said something now.

“Listening to you, it seems to make sense.”

Ye Bai nodded, confirming the authenticity of Nick Fury’s news.

It was basically concluded that Magneto of the Brotherhood really had his eyes on him.

He not only wanted his money but also wanted to use him.

However, Ye Bai didn’t care. With his current strength, would he still care about those mutants?

Would the dragon care about ants who were malicious to him?

“As long as you join us, SHIELD will provide you with protection, and the Mutant Brotherhood will not threaten you.”

Nick Fury had said so much in front of him before, and only now he was beginning to state his true purpose.

He hoped that through the threat of the Brotherhood of Mutants, Ye Bai would be drawn into S.H.I.E.L.D.

When Nick Fury wanted to come forward, Ye Bai had no reason to refuse him.

Unless Ye Bai planed to face the Mutant Brotherhood alone.

In fact, Ye Bai thought so. It was just a mere Brotherhood of Mutants, not enough to make Ye Bai afraid.

“There is nothing to talk about. I won’t join SHIELD.”

“As for the Brotherhood of Mutants, just let them come over.”

Ye Bai said disdainfully. He did not pay the slightest attention to Magneto and other mutants.

Nick Fury frowned when he saw Ye Bai’s determined attitude, if he had any.

Even after racking his brains, Nick Fury still couldn’t figure out why Ye Bai would reject his proposal.

But seeing Ye Bai’s so determined attitude, Nick Fury had to temporarily put away his plan to win Ye Bai.

As for the Ye Bai’s protection, obviously there must be some protective measures.

Nick Fury didn’t want the purpose of the Mutant Brotherhood to succeed. Otherwise there would be a mess, and S.H.I.E.L.D. would also be under great pressure.

“Well, whenever you figure it out, SHIELD welcomes you to join.”

“In addition, I have one more thing to tell you.”

Today’s main goal was not achieved. Although Nick Fury was disappointed, he didn’t take it too seriously.

He turned around and started talking about the second thing.

“What else do you have to say?”

Ye Bai was also a little curious in his heart. Could it be that besides the mutants, someone else was targeting at him?

Who was it? Hydra, or other large organizations?

“Your wife, Hela, do you really know her?”

Nick Fury whispered.

After listening to Nick Fury’s words, Ye Bai’s eyes changed immediately.

If Ye Bai didn’t catch a cold from Nick Fury before, then he would be disgusted now.

This damn black-hearted braised egg. He thought it was something important. It turned out that he wanted to provoke the feelings between his husband and wife.

Seeing Ye Bai’s disgust, Nick Fury also quickly explained.

“Don’t get me wrong. I am not trying to provoke the feelings between your husband and wife, I am just reminding you.”

“We have investigated your wife’s information, and the information shows that there was no such person as Hela in the world before she appeared by your side.”

“She has no past, no parents. It’s like she fell from the sky.”

“Do you know what this means?”

Ye Bai did not answer, but fell into deep thought after listening to Nick Fury’s words.

Because Ye Bai found out that what Nick Fury said seemed to make sense.

If even Nick Fury’s SHIELD could not find Hela’s information, then Hela’s past was indeed a bit of a mystery.

“This means that Hela is either not from this world, or someone deliberately erased her traces.”

“If you think about it carefully. Is it really a coincidence that you and your wife found each other? Is it really not a scam carefully arranged by someone else?”

Nick Fury then added.

Although he didn’t say it explicitly, Nick Fury meant it clearly. He told Ye Bai that there was a problem.
