I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 405 Military Personnel Arrive

hum!

Erin's voice seemed to penetrate the special glass vessel and fall into the Fenrir's Egg.

After a slight pause, the spiritual light within the Fenrir's Egg conveyed an eagerness to Erin.

Then, the purple liquid in the special petri dish began to bubble.

Glug glug.

Amidst the rising, fine bubbles, the Fenrir Egg steadily moved closer to Erin's location until it struck the inner wall of the petri dish with a soft "bang."

As the offspring of the demon wolf Fenrir, the little creature in the [Fenrir's Egg] possesses remarkable spirituality from birth. Although it has not yet been born, it can already perceive some aspects of the outside world.

Therefore, it seems quite clear who is the one who truly brings it away from death and gives it new life.

Sensing the affectionate and slightly adoring emotions emanating from within the petri dish, Erin's lips curled slightly upwards. He then unleashed a surge of mental power, stopping the [Fenrir's Egg] that was about to crash into the inner wall of the petri dish and charge towards him.

"Don't rush."

"What you need to do now is not to break out of your shell, but to strengthen your foundation as much as possible."

"do not be afraid."

"There will be no threat here. All you need to do is absorb everything with all your might and turn it into resources to help you grow."

"I believe and look forward to the day when you truly stand before me."

Under Erin's soothing words, Fenrir's Egg seemed to understand and gradually quieted down.

However, if you observe carefully...

You'll find that the purple nutrient solution in the special culture dish where the Fenrir's Egg is placed is being consumed at a rate that's increased by a full third compared to before.

·······

Just as Erin stepped out of the laboratory, intending to take the elevator away from Miracle Building...

A virtual image of a girl suddenly appeared in front of Erin.

Looking at the AI ​​image suddenly projected in front of him, Erin raised an eyebrow and asked, "What happened?"

Luo: "Master, three minutes ago, Captain Raymond of the military led a team into Miracle Building in a menacing manner. Mr. Fregra is currently dealing with them in the lobby on the first floor. According to your original schedule, you will meet them in the lobby on the first floor in two minutes."

Upon hearing this, Erin said thoughtfully, "So, Fregra sent you here so that I could avoid a direct confrontation with Captain Raymond?"

Luo, projecting his image onto Erin, flicked his ponytail and said, "Master, you guessed right. Mr. Fregra means that Captain Raymond is just a pawn used by the military to test your attitude. You don't need to see such a guy at all, and he's not qualified to see you. On the contrary, if that guy really meets with you, it will cause some unnecessary trouble."

In fact, if it weren't for Captain Raymond's agitated state, his drawing of a weapon, and his confrontation with our security personnel, which Mr. Fregra was concerned about potentially escalating into bloodshed and damaging the Miracle Corporation's reputation, Mr. Fregra wouldn't have personally intervened.

"Is that so? I understand."

Erin chuckled softly, then took another step, walking towards the elevator as he said, "In that case, I'll wait on the top floor for the qualified guy to come and see me."

·······

One minute later.

Still soaking wet, as if she'd taken a shower in the rooftop shower room, Kiris looked at Erin, who was coming back upstairs, with some surprise. "Weren't you planning to see your girlfriend after seeing the Blood Orchid? Why are you back?"

"Some unexpected guests have come downstairs, so we'll be a little delayed."

Upon hearing this, Kiris seemed to guess something, her eyes narrowing as she asked, "Are they from the military? Should I take care of those guys?"

Erin raised his hand to stop Kiris, who was emanating a faint murderous aura, and said, "No rush. We just gave those guys a warning. Let's see what they plan to do next before we talk."

·······

The military didn't keep Erin waiting for long.

While Captain Raymond was locked in a stalemate with the Miracle Group's security.

In a military green jeep outside the Miracle Building, Major General Portman, with his half-gray hair, seemed to have anticipated everything that was happening before him.

After slightly adjusting his military uniform, he turned around and opened the car door.

A few minutes later.

Inside the luxurious reception room on the top floor of the Miracle Building.

Erin then met Major General Portman again, whom he had met once before.

After Fregra whispered something in his ear, Erin said calmly to Major General Portman:

"Long time no see, Major General Portman. But we're old friends, so was it really necessary to have Captain Raymond give me such a hard time right from the start?"

As he spoke, Erin glanced at Captain Raymond, who was standing behind Major General Portman.

That silent glance carried an immense spiritual pressure.

With just one glance, Captain Raymond felt the terrifying pressure surrounding him, as if suffocating him.

moment.

Captain Raymond, who had been standing ramrod straight, began to hunch over slightly, and his face turned pale.

Beads of sweat, as big as soybeans, quickly climbed up his forehead and soaked his back.

The last time we met.

Captain Raymond was only a second lieutenant at the time, but in just a few months, his rank was promoted to captain.

Clearly, his performance at the Miracle Group press conference last time benefited the other party greatly.

One second they had benefited from Miracle Corporation, and the next they turned on Miracle Corporation without hesitation. Did they really think Erin had no temper?

Under the pressure of Erin's mental power, Captain Raymond's body quickly became shaky and unsteady.

Major General Portman, who seemed to have noticed this yet also seemed not to have seen anything, greeted Erin with a smile and then waved his hand.

"Don't misunderstand, I have no conflict with the Miracle Group, nor do I intend to make things difficult for them. Raymond's actions just now were merely a performance for a select few."

Upon hearing this, Erin smiled, and the suffocating pressure that Captain Raymond had felt vanished instantly, as if it had never existed.

However, the very next second after the mental pressure disappeared, Erin uttered a sentence that made Raymond's heart pound violently, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

"Really? Is it really just an act?"

"Captain Raymond brandished his gun at Miracle Tower, making me think he was there to arrest me from Miracle Corporation. After all, not long ago, the military issued us a notice demanding that not only do Miracle Corporation employees hand over the Blood Orchids he had risked his life to harvest, but I also have to hand over the formula for Miracle Potion!"

"Arrest you?"

Major General Portman, who was sitting on the sofa, shook his head in surprise upon hearing this: "Erin, you haven't done anything illegal, so why would Raymond arrest you? As for issuing a notice to the Miracle Corporation, ordering them to hand over the Miracle Potion, I'm here to resolve that matter."

At this point, Major General Portman suddenly turned his head, staring intently at Erin, and asked, "By the way, Erin, are you aware of Brigadier General Tesla's disappearance?"

"Missing? Brigadier General Tesla has gone missing?"

Upon hearing this, Erin displayed a perfectly timed expression of surprise, as if he knew nothing about the matter.

However, a smile quickly appeared on Erin's face, and he said, "If this is true, then...that's great."

"Brigadier General Tesla has been causing Dr. Banner and the Miracle Corporation a lot of trouble lately, so if he really has disappeared, it would be good news for us."

At this point, Erin glanced at Major General Portman, then his smile faded. "Wait a minute, General Portman, you wouldn't suspect that this matter is related to our Miracle Group, would you?"

Although it was Kiris who did it, Erin wouldn't be foolish enough to admit it in front of a military major general.

After staring at Erin's face and eyes for a long time without finding anything wrong, a slight doubt flashed through Major General Portman's mind.

Could it be that this guy really didn't do that?

But is that even possible?

Although he didn't really believe what Erin said, he remembered the orders the Minister of Defense had given him that morning.

Major General Portman still shook his head cooperatively: "Of course not. I just want to say that if that incident before was related to Tesla, then that incident was definitely just a misunderstanding."

"Not long ago, Brigadier General Teslak, for his own selfish interests, used the military's name and various excuses to solicit bribes from several giant corporations, including Stark Industries and Osborn Corporation. After being discovered by the Internal Affairs Department, that guy simply absconded with the money and disappeared without a trace."

"Damn it, did that guy try to get his hands on you guys too?!"

"But don't worry, this morning, our military issued the order to arrest Brigadier General Teslak. If he really asked you for something, just tell me, and I'll report it immediately when I get back. Once we catch that guy Teslak, I'll definitely give you an explanation."

That old guy is quite the actor!

Looking at Major General Portman, whose face was full of excitement and even angrily cursing, he saw...

Erin couldn't help but marvel at the other party's shamelessness.

No wonder he's a man who's been able to stay in the lucrative logistics department for decades.

However, Erin hadn't expected the military to abandon the pawn to save the king in such a short time and push all the blame onto Tesla.

Can······

Can you pretend that everything is over by blaming everything that happened before on that unlucky guy, Tesla?

Moreover, the federal military suffered such a huge loss this time.

To swallow one's anger is never the temperament of the Federal military.

Based on Erin's understanding of the Federal military.

I don't believe the other party would continue to swallow their anger after suffering such a huge loss.

The reason they are now putting up with this is that they are even putting all the blame on Tesla.

Aside from being frightened by Gillies' assassination attempt last night, it was mostly a temporary compromise made under external pressure.

Similarly, this is also a delaying tactic.

Once the federal military has recovered and is ready, Erin believes that he will face an even fiercer storm.

but.

Although he knew that the military was sending Major General Portman as a delaying tactic, Erin did not expose him.

The military needs time.

He also needs time.

When the military launches its counterattack, Erin imagines he will bring even greater power and forcefully shatter their conspiracy.

·······

After seeing that his performance had not received any feedback from Erin, he realized that his performance had not been appreciated.

Major General Portman wasn't embarrassed.

After pouring himself a glass of wine to moisten his slightly dry throat, Major General Portman immediately changed the subject, saying, "By the way, not long ago, we found some blood-red orchids with special growth factors deep in the Amazon rainforest."

"Didn't you say before that as long as we found an orchid with special growth factors, we could recreate that 'concentrated miracle potion'? Now that we've found the Blood Orchid, when will you be able to get the concentrated miracle potion ready?"

They just forced us to hand over the formula for the miracle potion, and now they want to use me to concoct that 'concentrated miracle potion'?

Haha, that's quite a dream come true.

"Blood Orchid, isn't that the name of the plant that Dr. Banner and his team found? Hmm, according to Dr. Banner, although the Blood Orchid is somewhat similar to the special orchid we used to refine the 'Concentrated Miracle Potion,' and even has a special growth factor, unfortunately they are not exactly the same."

Before Major General Portman's expression turned sour, Erin continued:

"Of course, once Dr. Banner brings the Blood Orchid back, I can study whether it possesses the special factors needed to refine a 'Concentrated Miracle Potion' and then use it to replace the special orchid I mentioned earlier."

Wait until Dr. Banner brings back the Blood Orchid?

Is this a reminder to me?

However, thinking of the amazing effects of the "concentrated miracle potion," Major General Portman said that once he returned, he would immediately contact the exploration team in the Amazon rainforest and have Dr. Banner bring the Blood Orchid back as soon as possible.

After Brigadier General Tesla killed them in his office yesterday, the military's hawks, though extremely angry, have quieted down considerably.

After all, no one wanted to become the next "missing" Brigadier General Teslak before catching that elusive group of assassins.
