The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 41 Boy Group Debut
Since Howard's death, Nick has never appeared in front of Tony again. At most, he is just monitored and watched by someone.

To put it bluntly, the fundamental reason was that Tony was of no use at that time.

As an ordinary person, Tony is only somewhat useful in technology, but his role in the supernatural field is limited. Especially when S.H.I.E.L.D. obtained the alien technology, even Tony's last bit of surplus value was useless.

So Tony didn't know Nick at all, and didn't believe he was his father's friend.

As the king of spies and an old bastard, Nick didn't even blush and continued:

"You have always been an ordinary person before, so we did not disturb your life. But now that you have entered the extraordinary realm, it is necessary to let you know some of the truths hidden behind this world."

Originally in the movie, Tony directly rejected Nick because he didn't believe what Nick said at all.

But now Tony has seen the scene of New York flooding in his "dream", and learned from his master Zhan Liu that there is a Supreme Sorcerer who can turn back time. Even he himself has cultivated himself into a "Super Batman".

Therefore, he is still very interested in the extraordinary world behind this world. And this relevant information is definitely not something that can be easily searched on the Internet.

Now that someone who knew the truth came to him, his genius brain turned and he understood it immediately.

"So, your so-called Special Abilities Bureau is the department responsible for managing supernatural affairs?"

"To be precise, SHIELD is under the United Nations World Security Council and is not under the jurisdiction of the Federation. We have law enforcement powers around the world and have branches in many places around the world."

"Oh, it's a worldwide organization..." Tony suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Who will pay for it?"

Although Nick knew that Tony was unreliable, he was still surprised by his unconventional way of thinking.

I'm talking to you about how high-profile SHIELD is, how powerful its background is, and how prestigious it is, but you ask me who's responsible for paying for it?

"Well... part of it comes from the five permanent members of the Security Council, and the other part is raised by SHIELD itself."

"Self-financed? Got it."

This kind of self-financing by departments is very common in the United States. For example, the CIA often uses business jets to do smuggling and the military often transports local specialties such as powder and ice from abroad to the country. Tony is very familiar with this.

"Don't get me wrong, we have legitimate channels to raise funds. After all, the most profitable business in the world has become legal."

"So, you broke into my residence today just to win me over? But I'm a little worried that you can't afford my salary."

"Tony, you may not know that your father, Howard Stark, is also one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"What? My father is one of the founders of your bureau? He is also a super-powered person?" Tony was shocked this time.

"No, although he is not a superpower, many of his black technologies were more useful than superpowers at the time. He may have mentioned to you that he and Captain America are friends. In fact, he had more than just Captain America as a friend at the time."

"But after he died, I didn't see any of his friends except Obadiah for more than 30 years. Until today, because you suddenly showed up."

Tony curled his lips and made a gesture of emerging from the ground with his hands.

"Sorry, Tony. But please understand that the extraordinary world is very dangerous, and we don't want you to be implicated." Nick said such nonsense without hesitation, and the expression on his face was as sincere as possible.

Tony leaned back on the sofa and said, "Well, let's not talk about the past. Anyway, I have managed to get by without you, and I am doing well. Tell me why you are here today."

"S.H.I.E.L.D. is committed to maintaining the safety of the Earth and protecting it from alien invasion..." "Stop, stop, stop!" Tony stretched out his hand to interrupt Nick's long speech and said impatiently: "Just tell me why you are looking for me. I have no interest in your great organization."

"The earth needs you, Tony." Nick had to be brief and get straight to the point.

"Oh, that's a really good saying. It makes my blood boil." Tony lazily leaned on the sofa, looking like a salted fish.

"Tony, the Earth has never been safe. It has always been coveted by aliens..."

"I report it!" Tony interrupted Nick again and raised his right hand high. "I report that there is an alien in the Ultimate Wuliang Pavilion in Chinatown. Go and catch him quickly!"

Nick choked and his face froze instantly.

He cursed in his heart, if he could be caught, would it be your turn to report it?

"Tony, I'm not kidding you..."

"I'm not kidding you either. I assure you that Zhan Liu is definitely an alien, not a mutant. Go ahead, let me see the strength of your organization." Tony looked at Nick playfully.

Nick took a long breath and said, "Tony, SHIELD has known about Zhan Liu for a long time and has been keeping an eye on him. But he has not violated any laws so far, so we can't arrest him rashly."

"So has he joined your SHIELD?"

"not at all."

"That's it. As my master's eldest disciple, I must of course stand in line with my master and cannot just join any random organization."

"Tony, aren't you curious about the real world hidden beneath this world? Don't you want to know more about the truth of the world?" Nick continued to lobby, "As long as you join S.H.I.E.L.D., our internal database will open up to you, and you can learn the truth that is buried in the mist of history."

Tony smacked his lips, clearly excited. "Speaking of databases, how did you break through Jarvis' firewall?"

"Jarvis originated from Howard's original butler, and when Howard originally conceived all this, he reserved the permission code, and I happened to get a copy from him."

"Really?"

"real!"

Tony stared at him for a moment, then finally gave up.

"I'm not used to working for others. I'm a born capitalist," he declined.

"Well, I don't expect you to come here to work from 9 to 5, but you can come as a consultant. I plan to form a team composed entirely of superheroes to work together to solve some major crises in the world."

"Sounds like we're going to the battlefield? I'm a civilian and will only provide logistical support."

"No problem." Let's trick him in first. There will always be a way to soften him up later.

"Well, it looks like I'm going to debut in a boy band too."
