Some well-known large pharmaceutical companies originally planned to study the efficacy of this new drug, but no one believed that this drug could really do what was said at the press conference. After all, everyone can brag.

But when the effect actually came out, everyone was shocked.

This is not science, it's a miracle!

When the patient's severed limbs began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye, all the scientists thought they were dreaming.

If something like this isn't a miracle, then what is?

Umbrella became completely famous because of this and quickly became a rising star in the medical field.

In a short period of time, it attracted worldwide attention, and those peers whose businesses were affected also began to make small moves.

Just as Dane was about to take action, the attacks suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Later he found out that it was S.H.I.E.L.D. who took action.

At the time, Dane said to Pepper, "It seems our product has caught their attention."

This is understandable. There are a lot of black technologies within S.H.I.E.L.D., but there are almost no products that can achieve the effect of the Extremis virus in healing external injuries, not to mention that Umbrella's products have almost no side effects.

This is absolutely necessary for SHIELD agents who often have to go on field missions and have a very high disability rate.

Originally, given SHIELD's tough style, they wanted to "take away" the core technology.

However, Umbrella has a stronger background. Not only does it have the support of the president, but it is also a shareholder of Stark Industries. In addition, many high-tech companies have cooperative relations with them. It is said that Dane Davis himself has a good personal relationship with Tony Stark.

Besides, S.H.I.E.L.D. has sent agents to infiltrate Umbrella before. No matter how many people Nyx sent in, those people have never obtained any important intelligence except being office workers.

All of the above made S.H.I.E.L.D. somewhat cautious when facing Umbrella. After all, they were a decent organization, and Nick's shamelessness had its limits.

Pepper didn't know much about S.H.I.E.L.D., she only knew that it was a large organization that was no less than the other two intelligence agencies. When she heard what Dane said, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

As we all know, official American organizations cannot be offended, because their help may not necessarily succeed, but they can cause trouble like no one else.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Originally, Dane was still wondering whether the person who came this time would be Phil Coulson, after all, this guy is a hard worker, but he didn't expect that the person who came was not him, but a woman.

"Hello, Mr. Davis, I'm Maria Hill, and I'm here on behalf of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Agent Hill was now dressed in OL attire, looking like a professional beauty, with a professional fake smile on her face.

She doesn't have as outstanding a figure as Natasha, but she has an intellectual beauty, and her eyes and eyebrows reveal a shrewd and capable temperament.

Judging from her temperament alone, she and Pepper are somewhat similar.

"Please sit down, Hill." Considering that she was somewhat similar to Pepper, Dane's attitude was pretty good.

"Thank you." Hill thanked him and sat down elegantly opposite Dane.

At this time, a girl came in and brought them two cups of coffee.

"Thank you, Wanda."

"You're welcome." Wanda walked out with the plate in both hands.

Hill watched her leave, feeling a little strange. She always felt that the girl who had just left was not simple.

"Ms. Hill, what does S.H.I.E.L.D. want to talk to me about? I believe Umbrella has never done anything illegal."

Dane's words brought Hill back to her senses, and she immediately said, "You misunderstood, Mr. Davis. I'm not here to hold you accountable or to investigate. I'm simply seeking cooperation on behalf of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Hill actually didn't believe what Dane said.

Umbrella's new product has such magical effects. Could it have been developed behind closed doors?

Obviously impossible!

That must have been discovered bit by bit through countless clinical trials, and such trials require experimenters, and a huge number of them.

The list of volunteers released by Umbrella is far from enough to support the research and development of new products, so where will more experimenters come from?

While Umbrella was difficult to infiltrate, Osborn Enterprises was like a sieve.

She knew that Osborn often purchased death row prisoners from major private prisons for human experiments, and even after the success of the "human enhancement" project, this purchasing behavior did not end.

I heard that Osborn Enterprises and Umbrella are very close, so you can easily guess where the death row prisoners they purchased ended up.

Strictly speaking, this behavior is human trafficking and should be strictly prohibited.

But Umbrella is not the only company doing this. In fact, pharmaceutical companies across the United States are doing this, and even S.H.I.E.L.D.

They even deliberately set up a laboratory in Sindhu, cooperated with local authorities, wantonly used local people for experiments, and purchased prisoners in bulk at extremely low prices, not all of whom were even death row prisoners.

In the original novel, after Phil Coulson died, he was resurrected by S.H.I.E.L.D. No one would think that this resurrection project had not been subject to human experiments before, right?

The development of every new drug is accompanied by mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

In comparison, Umbrella's drug trials had a much higher survival rate, and considering the purchase cost, they had to find a way to reduce the mortality rate so that a death row prisoner could be reused repeatedly.

Dane thinks he has a good conscience, but how does the death row inmate feel?

Because everyone is doing this kind of thing, SHIELD did not try to use this kind of thing to threaten Umbrella. It can be regarded as their sincerity.

Dane thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with doing business with SHIELD. He didn't need to know whether SHIELD or Hydra was using it.

Anyway, just give the money.

Chapter 783 Testing

"I agree in principle to cooperate with S.H.I.E.L.D., but I cannot trade the specific formula."

Perhaps because Dane was easy to talk to, Hill finally tentatively proposed another deal that Nick had asked for, but was rejected as expected.

But Hill did not give up. She still hoped to get more for S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Mr. Davis, if my guess is correct, the new product developed by Umbrella seems to be derived from a special substance called the Extremis virus?"

As mentioned before, SHIELD once obtained an original sample of the Extremis virus, which was given to them by Killian himself.

Technical personnel within S.H.I.E.L.D. conducted an in-depth analysis of Umbrella's new drug and found that part of its internal chemical synthesis formula was highly similar to the RNA segment of the Extremis virus, so they suspected that they were derived from the Extremis virus.

Unfortunately, although they were able to analyze the chemical composition of the new drug, they were unable to replicate the synthesis process, so they had no choice but to propose a deal to Umbrella.

If they could reverse engineer the synthesis method, SHIELD wouldn't have made this trip and would have used it directly.

As for patents? What are you barking at?

Dane raised an eyebrow and said in a slightly surprised tone, "You also know about the Extremis virus?"

But deep down, he was calm and not surprised at all.

Hill didn't see anything from the other person's expression and temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart.

In fact, before coming here, Nick had talked to her in secret about this matter. The release of Umbrella's new drug made Nick suspect that the AIM incident was related to them. After all, the timing was a bit coincidental.

Not long after the incident at the Avancier Technology base, Umbrella announced a new drug related to the Extremis virus. It is hard not to suspect the connection between the two.

Nick even suspected that Killian might be in Umbrella, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why Umbrella could develop a new drug in such a short time. Even if there was a formula and drawings, it would take time to set up a production line.

So Hill came this time with a secret intention of testing the waters. If Umbrella was really involved in the AIM base incident, then they should have found a different way to communicate with Dane.

But Hill couldn't see the problem and couldn't make any arbitrary judgment.

Although the Extremis virus was not well-known in the past, Maya Hansen and Killian published a paper on it. No one knows whether Dane read that paper and got inspiration from it.

After all, even Newton and Leibniz had conflicts, and no one can be sure whether the same is true for Dane and Maya Killian.

After a moment of thought, Hill said, "We at S.H.I.E.L.D. have actually conducted research on the Extremis virus. However, it generates fatal high temperatures when healing injuries, and it's difficult to use on humans. I wonder how Umbrella solved this problem."

Dane didn't have to answer because this was actually a trade secret, but he saw the other party's tentative intention and smiled slightly.

"The technology used to transplant the Extremis virus into the human body originated from Maya Hansen's bioregeneration technology. She solved the most difficult problem of transplanting the virus into the human body, which was completing the bioenzyme equation."

This is a fact that can withstand investigation, and this completion equation was modified by Tony Stark himself. If S.H.I.E.L.D. really goes to him to verify it, the credibility will be even higher.

"As for how to eliminate the side effects of high temperature, it is because we have found a specific gene expression segment that can produce an inhibitory enzyme to prevent the receptor from generating excessive waste heat."

As for where this specific gene fragment comes from, whether it comes from humans, animals, or plants, this is not something that can be said. It is a real trade secret.

For ordinary people, finding the special gene fragment that Dane mentioned is harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

Hill listened to Dane's words and didn't find any loopholes.

Thinking about the fact that the other party seemed to get along well with Stark, he should also be a genius in the corresponding field.

Stark is an arrogant bastard. It's hard to win his favor if you don't have real skills.

And Hill knew that Tony Stark once told Nick that Dane was very smart.

Coming from Stark's mouth, this evaluation is of extraordinary value.

But Hill was still a little unwilling. If he couldn't get the formula, it would mean that SHIELD would have to be controlled by others when it came to this urgently needed drug.

It would be great if Umbrella was a listed company, so they could just spend money to acquire it.

Hill sighed, but continued trying: "Is there really no room for maneuver regarding the formula? Actually, the conditions can be negotiated."

She lowered her posture and was very concerned about the survival rate and health of the agents. No wonder she could become the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Dane rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, it's not completely impossible to trade the formula, but you should know that this kind of thing can't be measured by money."

As long as the formula exists, Umbrella is like sitting on a gold mountain. Countless wealth will roll in in the future, and they are not short of money at all.

Therefore, if you want to exchange something like this, you can only exchange it with other things or technologies of equivalent value.

Hill understood his implication and hesitated, mainly because he didn't know what he had that the other party was interested in.

Dane said calmly, "I heard from Tony that SHIELD seems to have hidden the Cosmic Cube..."

Hill's face changed, he became alert instantly, and blurted out a word.

"Sorry, Mr. Davis, that's not for sale!"

She regretted it as soon as she said it, because it was equivalent to confirming the fact that they had the Rubik's Cube.

Damn Stark!

Because Howard's files had been decrypted on Tony Stark, part of the information about the Cosmic Cube was also decrypted.

After all, Howard's lifelong research, especially in the field of energy, is unlikely to bypass the Cosmic Cube.

So Hill wasn't surprised that Tony knew, but he just suspected he would tell others.

In fact, Tony did not tell Dane anything about the Tesseract. He deliberately deceived the woman in front of him.

"Of course, Umbrella does not require possession of the Cosmic Cube, but we hope to participate in its research."

Hill frowned: "Excuse me for asking, what is your purpose in studying the Cosmic Cube..."

"Infinite energy," Dane said.

Hill's frown deepened: "But, don't you already have a fusion reactor?"

Umbrella's energy technology can be hidden from others, but not from S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Not enough," Dane said.

Hill was a little confused: "Not enough?"

"For general industrial use, fusion reactors are indeed sufficient, but for interstellar travel and celestial construction, fusion reactors alone are still not enough."

"You... want to develop space resources?" Hill widened his eyes.

She repeatedly observed Dane's facial expression and asked a few questions. After making sure that he was not joking, a strange idea came to her mind.

No, as a private enterprise, your scale makes us look stupid.

Chapter 784 The Ten Rings Gang

The matter of the Cosmic Cube is of great importance, and Hill cannot make the decision on her own. She must ask her superior, Nick, for instructions.

Dane understood very well and was not too disappointed.

However, the two of them did do something practical, which was to sign a big order. S.H.I.E.L.D. was rich and powerful, and it took up a large share of the medicine orders at once.

Without affecting civilian sales, Umbrella estimates that it will take three years to fully deliver this large order.

Dane calculated with his fingers and thought that fortunately, SHIELD should still be there at that time, so the deal could be done, so he signed the contract with a wave of his hand.
