Chapter 39: Tony's Guilt! Nick's Idea!
After Charles and the others left, Jiang Bai, through the weapon defense system within the Manor, saw many unfamiliar vehicles appearing not far from the Manor.
He could even see many people using cameras or binoculars to monitor the area, but seeing that the other party had no intention of coming closer, Jiang Bai didn't bother with them.
"Jiang, I... can I see those two children...? You know, Obadiah privately sold a lot of weapons, so... I'm not trying to shirk responsibility, I just want to compensate them!"
"I can ask them for you, but I can't guarantee whether they're willing to see you."
"Okay!"
Tony spoke to Jiang Bai with a heavy heart, wanting to see Wanda and Pietro and compensate them!
Jiang Bai only intended to convey Tony's message, but he couldn't guarantee whether Wanda and Pietro would see him.
The reason Jiang Bai told Tony about Wanda and Pietro was because Tony came to support him.
Otherwise, he had planned to tell Tony when he was beaten up by Wanda and Pietro in the future.
However, Tony's return still surprised him a little.
Every time he helped Tony, he had a purpose, but Tony didn't seem to care about anything!
In any case, since the other party came to help him, he told Tony this news to spare him a future beating.
"Activate the energy shield, activate the holographic illusion!"
[Yes! Energy shield activated, holographic illusion activated!]
Then Jiang Bai ordered the activation of the entire Manor's energy shield and holographic illusion.
This prevented outsiders from attacking or peeking into the situation inside, and he also felt that S.H.I.E.L.D. had probably already figured out that he was the Master of the silver-white battle armor.
Therefore, it was even more important to conceal the entire Manor.
From the outside, only Jiang Bai and Tony's figures disappeared, the scene remained the same, the damaged areas were still unchanged, but they couldn't see Jiang Bai and the others' movements and locations.
These were all blocked by the holographic illusion.
After arriving at the underground control room in the Villa, he saw Wanda, Lorna, and Pietro waiting anxiously!
When they saw Jiang Bai come down, Wanda and Lorna rushed up and hugged Jiang Bai, and Pietro, seeing no space, hugged Jiang Bai from behind.
"Alright, alright, come down first, it's alright now!
By the way, Tony Stark wants to see you, he wants to compensate you, will you see him?"
"No, we don't want to see him for now, and I don't want his compensation!"
"Exactly!"
"Okay, if you don't want to see him, then don't.
You two go back to the Villa first, I'll deal with the aftermath."
With three 'pendants' instantly hanging on him, Jiang Bai, with a smile and a hint of helplessness, told Wanda, Lorna, and Pietro to come down and informed them that Tony wanted to see them!
However, Wanda and Pietro flatly refused.
Jiang Bai didn't say anything about it and told the three of them to go back to the Villa first.
He still had to deal with the aftermath of the recent battle.
A major battle occurred in the wealthy district of New York, Manhattan, and the subsequent issues and troubles would certainly be significant!
Even his own battle armor had been exposed, which would lead to even more trouble!
With his connections, he didn't have the ability to resolve these troubles.
He still needed Tony's help.
He walked out of the underground control room and stood before Tony, saying nothing, just shaking his head slightly.
Tony understood Jiang Bai's meaning, and his heart was filled with even more guilt.
"By the way, Tony, help me deal with the connections of those organizations.
I don't have any connections, and if I were to handle it, it would be a violent solution!"
"Okay, I'll take care of it.
I'm going back now!"
At this point, Jiang Bai also asked Tony to help him resolve those troubles.
If these organizations in the U.S. truly sought death, he wouldn't mind sending them on their way!
At worst, he could leave New York by spaceship.
With the spaceship's stealth, even Tony couldn't detect it, not to mention its short-range spatial jump capability.
It would be incredibly easy for him to leave here.
After he traded for more powerful items with Grey Wolf and Tom, he'd even dare to drop a Fat Man on the White House!
He had no sense of belonging to the U.S., and generally speaking, he had no sense of belonging to the entire World.
He had always seemed to float outside the entire World, out of place with it, and his foreknowledge allowed him to easily obtain what he wanted!
So, even if he destroyed the entire U.S., his heart wouldn't ripple.
After Tony agreed, he immediately activated flight mode and left.
The AI opened an invisible gap in the energy shield for Tony to leave.
Even now, Tony hadn't noticed anything unusual about the Manor, not even the activated energy shield!
"Martin Uncle, contact a construction company to repair the Manor.
There will likely be many people sneaking in, don't worry about it!
Just get the Manor repaired!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
Jiang Bai spoke to Martin as he approached him.
The Manor was now scarred and unrecognizable from its original beautiful state due to the recent battle, with all the trees, flowerbeds, and buildings completely destroyed!
For now, Jiang Bai didn't want to move, so he asked Martin to contact a construction company for repairs.
As for the Agents and members of other organizations who might disguise themselves as construction workers to infiltrate, Jiang Bai didn't care.
Seeing this, Martin began contacting the construction company!
Jiang Bai, meanwhile, returned to his room on the second floor of the Villa with the box containing the Mutant genes.
...
S.H.I.E.L.D.
After watching the battle at Jiang Bai Manor, Nick Fury's expression was extremely grim.
As the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., he had only now learned the identity of the Master of the silver-white battle armor.
Moreover, the opponent's combat power was quite impressive, judging from the report analyzed by the scientific research team.
This only added to his already dark expression!
The report clearly stated that he could control magnetism and metal!
He wasn't sure if this was Jiang Bai's own ability or the battle armor's ability.
Also on Nick Fury's desk was Martin's file, including his service record in the Navy SEALs.
Then there were the files of Wanda, Pietro, and Lorna, and even Jiang Bai's parents' files!
After some thought, Nick Fury decided to send an Agent to make initial contact.
He would judge what measures to take based on the opponent's personality, conduct, and other aspects.
The fact that the opponent could create a battle armor comparable to Iron Man was enough to show his extraordinary nature!
Nick Fury quickly pressed a button on his desk.
Soon, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure and Red Hair, dressed in a black combat suit, walked into Nick Fury's office.
"Natasha, this is the target's information.
I want you to approach him, understand the capabilities of his battle armor and his own strength, as well as information about his personality and other details!"
