Kurohane sighed. "No pay? That's not right, I clearly made arrangements before I left! Is Danvers, a true hero, also a capitalist? Danvers didn't pay you?" Kurohane looked at Karina with a bewildered expression. The little secretary's dressing style had become just like it was on Earth. For instance, right now, she was wearing a delicate one-piece pajama!
"Mrs. Carol said that I am your personal secretary and not an employee of the organization, so when I don't need to work, I naturally don't get paid. But you can't starve me and Cosmo after you're gone, so various daily supplies were sent." As Karina spoke, she felt very ill-treated. As long as she wasn't working, every day was spent eating and playing, playing and eating, and sleeping after eating. In half a year, besides gaining weight, her weight hadn't increased. She felt there was no difference between her current situation and when she was with the Collector, she couldn't find any sense of freedom!
Kurohane looked at Karina with disgust, finally understanding what "top-tier abstract people" were. Karina didn't know that her comfortable life had surpassed most races in the Galaxy! This was a standard socialite life! "You gained weight because you didn't pay attention to weight management, and you're blaming me? Don't you know how to do yoga and eat some vegetables?!"
"Tell me in detail, how have Danvers and the others been doing in the last six months? Where are they?" Kurohane didn't want to get tangled up in this matter with Karina, though he was also curious about where her pajamas came from. The thing he cared about the most was his Justice Value. He would soon return to Earth. At that time, he would take over the position of Sorcerer Supreme and go head-to-head with Dormammu, the Dark Dimension. If he didn't have some powerful abilities to protect himself, he would sooner or later end up like the trash in Kamar-Taj!
"Mrs. Danvers actually didn't manage the things you set up much. She spent most of her time flying around the Universe. She said there were too many people in it who needed help, so she gave this to me and left." As Karina spoke, she opened the collar of her pajamas and reached inside to pull out a pager, which she handed to Kurohane.
Kurohane took the pager, which still had her body temperature, and it did have Captain Marvel's iconic symbol on it. "Because I don't know when I will encounter danger, I always keep this pager close to me. Ms. Danvers saw how much I treasured her pager, so she made a lot of special clothes for me. They all have a hidden pocket on the chest. I have many of these clothes, let me show you..."
Karina finally got a chance to work and was about to give Kurohane a display. Kurohane originally thought she would show him the pocket on the pajamas she was wearing, but when he saw she was about to take them out of the closet, he cut her off! "Just keep talking, we'll look at the clothes later."
Kurohane sighed. "She's clearly never done a live-stream sale. When showing off clothes, you have to have a model wearing them to display them! Otherwise, why are there so many people in live-streaming rooms selling stockings and underwear?"
Karina stared at him, her eyes wide. "Really? Are you really going to look?!"
Kurohane found that Karina seemed to have her CPU on fire. Her pink skin had turned crimson, her eyes had turned into circles, and she looked completely frozen. The helpless Kurohane could only look at Cosmo in his arms and said with a smile, "Good dog, you tell me. That female beast is useless now."
"Woof!" Cosmo's tail instantly turned into a propeller, hitting Kurohane's body with a thud. Using her Telepathy, she controlled the communicator on her clothes to start speaking. "The blue-faced person and the white-faced person don't seem to get along. They quarrel every time they meet. However, they don't fight, they just get into weird struggles..."
Cosmo was a dog, after all, even if she was a super-powered dog, she couldn't remember some names. But Kurohane, by guessing and inferring, finally understood the whole story.
Yondu and Malekith had split into two factions in this unnamed organization. Most of the people who followed Yondu were Marauders from the Universe. Since they began doing things according to Kurohane's methods, Yondu's branch of Marauders became famous within half a year and gained a good reputation among the great powers. After all, every country has wanted criminals, but they don't spend a lot of time and money to chase them. Offering a bounty is enough, but Yondu and his group actually delivered them!
Yondu followed Kurohane's words and was only required to recruit desperadoes in Null Space. Then he packaged and sorted them, assembled a large group, and delivered them to the countries that issued the bounties. Rather than saying they were doing the work of Marauders, they were more like doing express delivery in the Universe. These wanted criminals didn't need to be caught, they all came to their doorstep! After being in the Universe for so many years, they had never seen a business this easy!
Malekith was different from Yondu. After all, his Dark Elves had become a protected animal. With only a few of them left, they couldn't play this kind of fishing game. In desperation, he had to take another route, selling information! Dark Elves were naturally good at stealth and gathering intelligence, and Malekith was a genius. He directly went undercover in two mutually hostile countries to collect information. He made money from both sides with a single piece of information, completing the most primitive accumulation of capital.
After getting rich, he bought financial products on a large scale, relying on his sensitivity to information. He played the stock market in the Galaxy, and his current net worth was probably equal to half of the Collector's! What's more, they also successfully completed the task Kurohane had assigned them, successfully using financial means. They overthrew several tyrannical planetary governments and liberated the ordinary people who were suffering there. They not only obtained all the funds of these planetary governments but also developed them into a headquarters for the Dark Elves. They started a vigorous work assistance program, allowing the oppressed ordinary people to live a good life!
Cosmo was excited as she told Kurohane! Large-scale rewards! And liberating the oppressed lower races! This was a huge Justice Value, I'm really going to take off this time! Especially the surprise brought by Malekith. This guy was only unable to defeat Odin purely by force back then. If he had the same combat power as Odin, I'm afraid he would really become a terrifying king! Even Earth would tremble under his power!
"Karina, stop being a fire! Contact Malekith and Yondu for me and tell them I'm back! Tell these rich landlords to treat me to a meal!"
