An enclave in the United States, Las Vegas. 』Liewennet ΔThis is a world famous casino.
This is a fascinating Xiaojin Cave, here is the heaven and **** of countless gamblers. In terms of geographical location, it is already very close to the North Pole, because the dimension is already very north, even if it is already in mid-February, it is still very cold.
It is said that this cold climate lasts at least until the end of March to the beginning of April. So this time period is not the best season for casino business.
"This is the first number of silverware we collected?" Li Jie asked, holding a newly recovered silverware, which was bought from a silverware shop.
It may seem that the former owner needed money to sell it.
"We have already had 80 pieces of silverware, plus the mutants have collected 40 pieces. The SHIELD side also recovered nearly 100 pieces in the past half month. It can be said that we have already collected Most of the silverware has been recovered. "Answering Li Jie was Frank who was on a mission with him.
It should have been troublesome to travel from New York across the Canadian territory to this place, but the helper Li Jie found played a big role.
Master Lan participated in Li Jie ’s plan. She has an excellent magic of space teleportation, which can send people thousands of miles away in an instant.
And the ability to lock these leftover silverware is also locked by the wizard's magic. Although it is not very accurate, it can at least ascertain the general direction.
Because all silverware looks like the source of the breath comes from a complete item, it is related to the breath.
Lan can use the breath of one silverware to lock the breath of another to determine his position, just as Loki did before.
"Did you find it? If there is nothing here, I think we should go back first." Master Lan asked when he saw Li Jie and Frank returning to the agreed place.
Her complexion is not very good now, because the excessive use of magic during this period made her mana a little overdrawn, and the magic of the magician is not endless.
Even if it is as strong as the ancient one, or Heavenly Father Odin their mana will be exhausted moments.
"Working hard, please send us back to New York first, I think you may need to rest for a while recently." Li Jie said looking at Lan's face.
"Go back and say it first." Lan did not respond to Li Jie's words, directly breaking through a door of space in the air with golden red sparks.
Li Jie and the three men crossed thousands of kilometers and returned to New York in an instant.
"Isn't there any trouble in New York today?" Li Jie asked Zeng Chu who was staring at a bunch of computer screens and observing the dynamics of New York City after returning.
"If a group of lunatics want to attack the Stark Group, it's not a big deal. Then it's no big deal." Zeng Chu shrugged.
"Why? Someone attacked the Stark Group?" Li Jie put the recovered silverware into the base's vault to collect it.
"It's nothing, a group of unemployed employees." Zeng Chu pointed to the TV and said it was the biggest news today.
"Roughly because Stark's new energy system has hit a lot of people's jobs, I heard that the world's seven major energy giants are preparing to start mass layoffs."
"The countries in opec that depend on crude oil exports can no longer sit still. Stark's new energy project has started to get on track in New York."
"When I went to gas today, even the employees of gas stations were worried about facing unemployment. Many of the employees of gas stations you know have no other skills. Once one day, Stark ’s new energy will completely replace the old petrochemical energy. , Then these people are almost certainly unemployed. "
"So someone went to attack the Stark Group?" Li Jie understood a little bit of what happened. The pace of the great era has not really taken its first step, and obstacles to its progress have already emerged.
"Yes, there are about three hundred people, and it looks organized." Zeng Chu said after thinking.
"Some people took weapons to siege the Stark Group and hid in their car. Someone shot after approaching the Stark Group."
Li Jie's brows frowned, and this matter didn't seem to be as simple as laid-off workers who had difficulty finding jobs again and went to trouble.
"There were probably more than ten guns, and two Stark staff were killed on the scene. Then Tony Stark wearing steel armor appeared, and it seemed that he added a lot of non-lethal to the new armor. Exploding weapons, uniformly subdued the crowd. "
"Can you find the files of the troublesome guys?" Li Jie felt more and more wrong as she thought about it. It is already a troubled autumn. Are these guys who shot and killed on the streets of New York really instructed?
"The New York police have just locked up these guys. I still can't find their information, but I will pay attention." Zeng Chu said that these things may not be easy.
"We have found so many silverware now, shouldn't the rest be in trouble?"
"I don't know, but I always feel that it's not that simple. It's important to know that the silverware found on the mutant's side was almost recovered only after the mutant became out of control." Li Jie thought of the recent behavior of the mutant. Some headaches.
Recently, there have been nearly 40 cases of mutants out of control. Although they were not born in New York, the impact is still very bad.
In particular, a case where the mutant who was born in the process of oil and gas extraction was out of control had a huge impact. The out of control mutant had been able to control his ability before, but the sudden out of control that day caused a serial explosion of the entire mining platform.
After the death of more than 70 people and the injury of nearly 500 people, it was the most devastating case of mutants in recent years.
The mutants that had already been depressed had their heads up again.
And because the Stark Group launched new energy, the stock prices of these old energy manufacturers fell, as well as the damage to the mining platform and the astronomical work-related injury compensation that almost caused the boss to collapse.
This caused the boss of this company to declare bankruptcy directly after the compensation was completed, which caused the unemployment of thousands of people.
Inside and out, because of the mutants and the new energy of the Stark Group, the whole society has become more turbulent, and many people are beginning to feel uneasy.
Especially related practitioners, they are all afraid of losing their lively jobs, this invisible fear spread among the crowd.
Although the crowd is not large, fear is real.
"Where did Barbara go?" Li Jie asked that Barbara was a member of Frank's new team, one with black-framed glasses, dressed in a very otaku style, and not very eye-catching. Female school bully.
There is considerable research in biology, and according to Frank, she also has quite good marksmanship. She used to be a scientist in a special institution.
"She is studying the black symbiote you brought back last time in the laboratory." Zeng Chu pointed to the laboratory door.
"By the way, what are you going to do with that kid? Barbara did a thorough examination of Cain and has determined that he should not have been damaged by the symbiote." Frank took off all his equipment and participated in the conversation.
"I haven't thought of it for the time being, but I am afraid he will be arrested for research before returning to the orphanage now?" Li Jie has been too busy recently to think about Cain's problems.
"Is Master Gu Yi still not coming back now?" Li Jie asked Lan who was using magic to try to communicate with Gu Yi.
"It doesn't look like it, maybe it's still in Asgard. My mana is too weak to reach Master Gu Yi through Asgard." Lan shook his head, his face paler, and now she was too overdramatic.
"You still have to rest first, things cannot be solved in an instant." Li Jie shook his head at Lan.
"I'm afraid I can't do it without rest, because the rest of the silverware, other than the ones we collected from you and those of your friends, I can no longer detect the position of the other silverware." Lan bit his lips and told Li Jie Not very good news.
"Well, no matter what, you go to rest first. I will deal with the rest." Li Jie patted Lan's shoulder.
The problem is to find a way to solve it, and since it is not painful, we have to find another way.
"I'm going to the Stark Group. If you have any urgent matters, remember to contact me." Li Jie felt like he was running around like a firefighter.
Step on the slider provided by Harry and fly fast at a height of a few hundred meters at a distance of three hundred kilometers.
"Mr. Tony, the Night Walker requested to meet." In the laboratory inside the Stark Group Building, Tony is staying up late to make some interesting Xiaoming. Jarvis's voice interrupted his inspiration.
He can only put down the device in his hand and say. "Turn off the defense system and let him in from the rooftop."
Li Jie entered Tony's reception room from the top of the Stark Group, and the owner, Tony Stark, was holding a tablet computer to read the information.
After several meetings and cooperation, the vigilance between the two is not as heavy as it was at the beginning. At least Tony will not wear a full set of steel armor when meeting the night walker.
"I heard that you have been busy recently? You are fighting fire everywhere. I want to ask you if the US government has your salary?" Tony said without looking up. UU reading
"So what about you? I heard that you just flew to Iraq recently to solve a group of armed groups. Did the Iraqi government give you a special bonus? Or is it a touching thank-you letter?" Li Jie knew Tony's character and did not And he politely hit back.
"Thank you, I can receive it every day, but I always only like ladies, especially those beautiful ladies." Tony put down his tablet.
"I heard that you have some troubles with the company today? Can you guess who is behind the leader?" Li Jie found a sand and sat down.
"Do you also believe in conspiracy theories? Well, there are too many real possibilities. You have to know that what I'm doing breaks a lot of money."
"To come to me today to care about your new friend's trouble?" Tony asked.
"Actually, I want to ask you, did you check the silver necklace for you?"
"I know, come with me and show you something." Tony stood up and motioned to Li Jie to keep up with his pace. (To be continued.)
