Marvel's Umbrella

In the end, Tony still didn't go to the Middle East.

Because that night, Lieutenant Colonel James came over.

"Listen, Tony, no matter what you found in the Middle East, you have to pretend that you don't know."

Looking at his friend's solemn face, Tony was puzzled.

"What happened? Is the military oppressing you?"

James shook his head.

"Don't worry about it. Promise me that you won't care about the Middle East anymore. I'm doing this for your own good..."

"Didn't you see the mass graves in the Middle East? There are such massacres in the world. As a human being, where is your conscience and justice?"

"The military has decided to send an additional 20,000 troops from Camel Country next month to ensure that the massacre in Gumira will not happen again."

Hearing this, the smart Tony immediately thought of something.

"Did they condone the Gumira massacre?"

"Tony, sometimes people can't be too smart, otherwise they will cause trouble.

As your friend, I don't want to see you get into an accident, and now you have even lost your position as the chairman of Stark Enterprises.

Your biggest life-saving talisman is gone."

Why is it that no matter how Tony commits suicide, Congress and the military are just indifferent to him and dare not offend him to death.

That's because he is the chairman of Stark Enterprises, managing a company with a value of hundreds of billions of dollars, with hundreds of thousands of workers under him, and he is also the largest arms dealer in the military.

But now that he is no longer the chairman, he has lost his biggest trump card, and the military will not be so tolerant of him.

Just when Tony wanted to say something, the door suddenly opened, and Pepper, dressed in a formal black suit, walked in with a briefcase.

"Who said Tony is not the chairman of Stark Enterprises?"

Hearing Pepper's words, Tony immediately smiled and got up from the sofa.

"Pepper, do you have a solution?"

Pepper put down his briefcase and sat on the sofa with a confident expression.

"I have already talked to some shareholders and senior executives. We will hold a shareholders' meeting next month, and they will all support you then.

Even if Obadiah and his team issued 500 million shares, so what? They don't have that much money to buy shares. We will definitely be able to regain the position of chairman by then."

After listening to this, James next to him immediately said, "Then wait until you become chairman next month, and then go to the Middle East to make trouble."

Tony, who was originally excited, suddenly fell in color.

"Hey, man, you can't do this."

Then he came to the window and opened the curtains.

"Also, quickly withdraw your people and stop monitoring me."

"Tony, an F22 is worth 140 million, and this is the production cost. You have to know how big the trouble is this time!"

Although 140 million is expensive, if it were in the past, Tony would have given it as he said.

But because of Obadiah's backstab, he is naturally not as generous as before.

Even the development of Mark V has not started due to funding issues.

So when Tony heard 140 million, he sat on the sofa in a deflated mood.

After a moment of silence, Tony suddenly said, "Jarvis, project the Zergman."

As he finished speaking, a three-dimensional projection soon appeared in the living room.

The projection was exactly the Zergman Tony had encountered twice in the Middle East.

"Did you make these things?"

James was stunned when he saw the lifelike and extremely terrifying projection in front of him.

"Where did these ghost things come from? Tony, are you going to make a horror movie?"

But looking at Tony's solemn eyes, he gradually felt something was wrong.

"Is it the monster you met in the Middle East?"

Tony stood up excitedly, waving his hands.

"That's right.

I call these monsters bug men. They used to look like humans, but after I killed them, they mutated and turned into monsters.

Aren't you spying on me? Haven't you been curious about the biologists I invited over during this period?

I just want to study what these bug men are.

Tell me, is this something your military made?"

"No!"

James shook his head quickly, then looked carefully at these scary bug men.

"Are they all born from some kind of enhancement technology?"

"Enhancement technology?"

Tony looked disdainful, then took the wine glass from Pepper and took a sip.

"I prefer to call it a failure. Have you seen Captain America become this horrible?"

If we talk about the ancestor of enhancement technology, it is naturally Captain America, so it is customary to compare him with Captain America.

James also took the wine glass from Pepper, and suddenly a name appeared in his mind.

"Could it be that company..."

Seeing that James seemed to know something, Tony immediately became interested.

"Which company?"

After hesitating for a while, James finally said it.

"Umbrella..."

When Tony and Pepper heard the name, they exclaimed in unison.

"Umbrella!"

"Yes, actually I'm not very clear, after all, biological research is managed by other people, I'm just in the weapons research and development department.

But I heard that the military has been in close contact with Umbrella recently, and has recently placed a lot of orders."

Pepper frowned slightly.

"Isn't Umbrella producing drugs and cosmetics? Why is it also involved in biological research?"

Tony put down his glass and nodded beside him.

"Yes, doesn't the military always cooperate with the Osborne Group in biological research?"

James looked around at this time, walked to the window and drew the curtains.

“Actually, the top management has already acquiesced to this.

The Osborne Group's biological research is not as good as Umbrella's, so they prefer to cooperate with Umbrella.

Don’t say anything about what I just said. These things are still confidential. "

Tony and Pepper naturally wouldn't make things difficult for friends, so they nodded immediately.

After continuing to chat for a while, James left.

But Tony's eyes flickered for a while, and then he asked Pepper to go to bed first because he still had research to continue.

Pepper had been busy all day, so she went up without thinking too much.

After Tony came to the laboratory, he looked at the almost repaired Mark 3 and the obviously larger Mark 4 next to it.

In the end, he chose Mark III.

The Mark IV's armor is indeed thicker, but tonight's actions are still more demanding and require dexterity.

After Tony left, Pepper looked at the disappearing light outside the window and sighed in her heart.

…

late at night.

A dark cloud appeared in the sky, blocking the moon high in the sky and plunging New York City into darkness.

Tony controlled the Mark III and came to the sky high in the Umbrella Tower.

He saw that the building was still brightly lit, and there were obviously people working the night shift.

"Jarvis, plan an entrance that won't be discovered."

"Yes, Mr. Stark."

Thank you very much Xiaonuo, Mr. Tianqi for your monthly ticket
