The mechanical craze in Marvel

Just as the discussions were underway, Jonas Bennett suddenly spoke up:

"Mr. Locke, please wait a moment, I need to take a phone call."

"Of course, please feel free to do as you please."

A moment later, Jonas Bennett answered the phone again.

This time, however, his voice was very heavy, and Nolan could sense Jonas Bennett's suppressed anger and dissatisfaction in it.

"Mr. Locke, although it's sudden, the plan has changed."

If all goes well, Project Monarch Titan will be fully launched; we'll discuss the specifics next time.

After saying that, Jonas Bennett hung up the phone.

Nolan raised an eyebrow. What happened?

From the very beginning, he did not believe that the Emperor Titan could be built in a short period of time.

With that in mind, he opened the news search.

If anything could change Jonas Bennett's mind, it would be tremendous news.

I had just turned on my phone when a message popped up.

[Today, unidentified individuals clashed with the Avengers, resulting in the destruction of three city blocks. Further investigation is underway.]

The first thing you see when you click in is a video of Tony Stark and Black Bolt battling it out.

In the video, Tony Stark fires a missile at Black Bolt, who lets out a shriek and knocks the missile and Tony Stark away.

Hulk seized the opportunity to rush towards Black Bolt, but was forced back by Black Bolt who had reacted.

With just two attacks, Black Bolt created a vacuum zone hundreds of meters wide.

Judging from their surroundings, they were likely located at Stark Tower.

But at this moment, one of New York's most prestigious buildings has been razed to the ground.

Nolan suddenly understood everything.

The Stark Tower is located in one of New York's most bustling areas.

If such a big problem arises in a place like this and is not handled properly, Jonas Bennett, who hasn't even settled into his position yet, could be ousted.

No wonder Jonas Bennett was furious.

Nolan didn't understand why they had a conflict at Stark Tower.

While I feel sorry for Tony Stark, I must say that Tony Stark helped him out.

At the same time, Nolan's gaze turned cold.

Black Bolt's unbridled use of his abilities truly shows he has no regard for humanity.

At S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury's face was ashen.

The battle between Black Bolt and the Avengers practically put him on the grill.

He cursed Black Bolt while simultaneously being furious that Tony Stark was an idiot, even though Black Bolt was an extremely powerful fighter.

This battle clearly demonstrates how beneficial it would be for Black Bolt to join the Avengers.

But now, everything has vanished.

Although the previous incident was significant, the number of casualties was ultimately not large.

But this time, regardless of how huge the compensation amount is, the entire world will not allow Black Bolt to join the Avengers team.

He built the Avengers to benefit himself, not to cause trouble.

Natasha stood to the side.

Nick Fury said:

"Pass the word down to add Black Bolt and his group to the list of high-risk criminals."

Natasha nodded.

"Chief, now that Black Bolt has caused such heavy casualties, shouldn't we concentrate our efforts on capturing Black Bolt?"

She was certainly aware of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s procedures, but it was precisely because she knew them that she understood that simply listing someone as a high-risk criminal was not enough to find that person.

Nick Fury glanced at her, then rubbed his head.

"Let's put this matter aside for now... no, at the same time, given Black Bolt's dangerous nature, we hope all members of the Avengers can capture him."

After a moment's hesitation, Nick Fury said:

"Please apologize on their behalf. This time, I didn't think things through."

After Natasha left, Nick Fury slammed his fist on the table.

His considerations were certainly sound, but these Avengers simply didn't take him seriously at all.

If Tony Stark hadn't stirred things up, things wouldn't have turned out this way!

But he had no choice; he needed the Avengers.

It's not just about fame, but also about those criminals with superpowers.

……

Locke Technology Building.

Nolan sat across from Tony Stark.

Tony Stark looked annoyed.

Nolan, a slight smile always playing on his lips, asked:

"I heard Stark got an 8% share this time?"

“Stark Industries shut down its weapons division a long time ago,” Tony Stark retorted.

Nolan smiled without saying a word, leaving behind a meaningful look.

This plan is extremely large; not to mention anything else, the energy sector alone accounts for 17%.

The claim that the weapons department was shut down is just an excuse.

Moreover, a total of five companies participated in the Emperor Titan Project this time, although their respective shares varied.

But Locke Technology captured 82% of the market share!

Tony Stark was prepared for Nolan to retaliate, but now Nolan just glanced at him.

Although he didn't say anything, the more he did so, the more frustrated he felt.

Just when he was about to lose his patience, the last party in the meeting finally arrived.

The visitors were representatives from the White House, including heads of various fields such as finance, military, and commerce.

A military cooperation deal worth trillions, or even hundreds of trillions, has an enormous impact.

"This Earth defense plan, according to Mr. Locke's idea, will be divided into three parts: the extraterrestrial warning and defense ring, the surface defense base, and the most crucial one... Project Monarch Titan."

At this point, the person in charge glanced at Nolan.

“Mr. Locke, are you sure this plan you’re talking about can be realized? Many of the technologies you’ve mentioned are far too advanced.”

"of course."

Nolan nodded without hesitation.

"In fact, I have already overcome most of the technological barriers to the Monarch Titan. Our overall plan will be carried out over three years. During these three years, I am confident that I can solve the remaining problems. I believe that the Monarch Titan is sufficient to solve most of the troubles we are facing now and may face in the future."

The Emperor Titans will be the largest armed units capable of existing on the surface of the earth!

The White House official nodded; no confirmation was needed.

Details of the plan will be communicated to Locke Technology by a specialist later.

"The extraterrestrial warning and defense ring is mainly the responsibility of Lockheed Martin and Stark Industries, with other companies providing assistance and improvement. God, I really hope we never have to activate the defense ring."

The meeting lasted for most of the day before it finally ended, and that was only after the general direction was finalized; the details would require even more time to resolve.

Wait for the meeting to end.

Tony Stark did not leave immediately.

He hesitated for a moment, then walked over to Nolan.

"You've fought Black Bolt?"

Nolan looked at Tony Stark and then nodded.

"That's right, I saw the news too. I hope your Stark Tower can be rebuilt as soon as possible."

“What do you know about Black Bolt?” Tony Stark asked.

When Tony Stark mentioned Black Bolt, Nolan became more serious.

"It's dangerous. Inhumans and humans are different races, and slavery exists among the Inhumans. You should understand what the existence of this system means."

Tony Stark sighed.

"It seems we have a very dangerous adversary."

How much compassion can a person who allows slavery to exist have? Even if he does have compassion, it won't be directed at slaves, and humans and aliens are not the same race.

Nolan nodded.

That's right.

However, in his view, humans and Inhumans are unlikely to have any contact in the near future.

The reason Black Bolt didn't leave Earth is probably because of his brother Maximus. Now I've helped him get rid of Maximus.

If Black Bolt hadn't gone mad, he would probably have led the remaining Inhumans away from Earth.

Nolan is just a passerby in this world, so they probably won't have any contact.

Once the Earth defense plan is completed, the Inhumans will have no chance to do anything.

Conflicts may erupt in the future, but at least they will no longer concern him.

With the Earth defense plan in full swing, Locke Technology has entered a state of comprehensive development.
