Nolan felt quite innocent about this.

He didn't actively provoke the Inhumans.

Even if he did initially intend to use the Inhumans.

But in fact, all of this was something the Inhumans themselves created.

If Maximus hadn't attacked him, Nolan wouldn't have intervened at all; and if Black Bolt hadn't sought revenge for his brother, the two sides wouldn't have engaged in such a fierce battle.

Even so, Nolan did not intend to completely eliminate them.

If Black Bolt doesn't reappear on Earth, Nolan won't even bother with them.

But now, in Crystal's eyes, Nolan Locke seems to be the most terrifying demon in the world.

To this, Nolan only wants to ask one question: Why?!

Why were the Inhumans allowed to attack him? He was labeled a demon simply for fighting back. Why were these Inhumans, who were unwilling to accept this, made him bear the consequences?

There is no such reason in this world.

Since the Inhumans think this way, and since Crystal really thinks this way.

that……

Nolan chuckled softly, but there was no hint of amusement in his eyes.

Then let them know what a demon really is.

"Elisa, I need your help with something."

Elisa paused for a moment, then laughed:

"Boss, you don't need to be so polite."

Nolan smiled.

"No, even though you are my secretary, you are still an independent individual, aren't you?"

Nolan continued:

"I need you to purchase a batch of weapons from Stark Industries. You need to make the trip yourself to confirm the parameters of these weapons. If they don't meet the requirements, they will all need to be rebuilt."

"of course."

Elisa nodded.

Although she rarely did these things as Nolan Locke's secretary, it was still part of his job.

But for some reason, she felt that Nolan Locke was acting strangely today.

"Go."

After saying that, Nolan lowered his head and continued processing the backlog of documents in his hands.

Just as Elisa was about to leave, she suddenly turned around.

"boss."

"what?"

Nolan looked up, raising an eyebrow.

When do you have time? I'd like to invite you to my home.

Upon hearing this, Nolan chuckled and glanced at Elisa's body.

"how?

Do you want to play something special?

A flicker of disgust crossed Elisa's eyes, but she still said:

"If you want, boss, but... you can't hide it from me. I need an explanation about Ms. Susan."

Nolan shrugged and said:

"Susan is my girlfriend...you...you'd be considered a cheating cat, wouldn't you say?"

Nolan made no attempt to explain, and then said with a hint of regret:

"Although I would very much like to agree to your proposal, unfortunately, I'm afraid it's not possible."

"what happened?"

Elisa was slightly surprised.

Seeing the unease in Elisa's eyes, Nolan said:

“Project Monarch Titan is nearing completion. You know, it’s a project that has consumed countless manpower and resources. During this period, I must keep a close eye on the Monarch Titan base project.”

He paused briefly, then continued:

"Speaking of which, the Inhumans seem to have disappeared recently, but I always feel like they're still up to something. Once the Emperor Titan Project is completed, it's time to address the Inhumans issue."

The White House has contacted me, hoping to find the location of the Inhumans. I've been trying to do so, and although it's not confirmed yet, I have some guesses.

Earth……

It's unlikely that there's a place that could easily conceal so many extraordinary individuals.

but……"

Nolan glanced at Elisa.

"The Inhumans are, after all, an intelligent race, and they share the same origin as humans. If they want to resolve this issue peacefully, it's not impossible to talk about it, as long as they pay a price that satisfies me."

As long as his bottom line isn't crossed and he isn't truly threatened, it's just an assassination attempt, which Nolan sees as a bargaining chip.

Elisa didn't pay attention to Nolan's last words.

A hint of unease appeared on her face.

"Boss, I'll go get the weapons and equipment you mentioned first."

She then left Nolan's office in a somewhat flustered manner, and even after arriving at Stark Industries, she was still unable to fully recover.

Upon entering Stark Industries and seeing the weapons she needed to retrieve, Elisa felt somewhat puzzled.

"What's the use of these things? They don't look like weapons at all."

Upon hearing this, the Stark Industries engineer retorted with dissatisfaction:

"These utilize a large amount of Stark Industries' cutting-edge technology, some of which was even personally supervised by Mr. Stark."

He pointed to the device in front of him and said:

"This big thing can effectively slow down people's thinking. When applied on the battlefield, it can make the enemy momentarily stunned, creating an opportunity for oneself. Only this special mental device can make people immune to its effects."

As he spoke, the engineer pointed to the device, which was no bigger than the palm of his hand.

She thought it looked beautiful.

But she didn't care.

This thing is like a cage; it's completely useless.

but……

She considered it for a moment and realized it might be useful in fighting against the Inhumans.

The abilities of the Inhumans need to be activated through mental stimulation; if the mental state is stagnant, the abilities may become ineffective.

Thinking of this, her heart tightened.

Human technology has advanced to this point.

As expected, Black Bolt was right; they needed to leave Earth.

Only in this way can the Inhumans be given a chance to breathe.

Fortunately...

She glanced at the device with lingering fear.

Fortunately, Nolan Locke was not wary of her, allowing her easy access to the device.

She dared to say that the reason Nolan Locke created this thing was to guard against their Inhuman race; this was highly likely.

She had to speed things up.

Elisa made up her mind.

If this dragged on any longer, Nolan Locke would be protected by this device, and Nolan Locke's words also made her very uneasy.

After the Emperor Titan Project, Nolan Locke might actually be able to find the location of the Inhumans.

at night.

She took the initiative to contact the Inhumans.

Soon, Medusa reappeared.

“Crystal, we only met recently, why are you contacting me again? This will increase your risk of being exposed.”

Elisa quickly said:

“Sister, we have to make a move. Nolan Locke said he has guessed the location of the Inhumans and will make his move after the Emperor Titan Project is completed.”

Medusa was startled upon hearing this.

“That’s impossible. We’re not even on Earth. There’s no way he could have found us.”

"But he's very smart!"

Crystal's face showed resentment.

"Although I hate to admit it, he is definitely the smartest person in the world. We can't gamble on this possibility, and... if we don't act now, we'll miss our chance."

Seeing her sister looking at her, Crystal continued:

"Just today, he sent me to Stark Industries to retrieve a custom-made device that can slow down the speed of thought processes. This is a natural nemesis for us Inhumans, and I think it is very likely that this is a device specifically designed to target the Inhumans."

Upon hearing Crystal's last words, Medusa gritted her teeth.

Can you pinpoint the location of that thing?

If we're going to take action, we must ensure that we won't be affected.
