System, are there any suitable tasks now?"
In the empty office, Li Yue sat in a chair and asked.
Several days had passed since the last time, and he had finally finished his business.
Now that he had free time, he naturally needed to collect the source power as quickly as possible to prepare for the 'Ark' plan.
As for Deadpool Wade and Electro Max, Li Yue had sent them to deal with the mercenaries secretly preparing to kill him for the bounty.
Therefore, at this moment, he was the only one on the top floor of Noah Tower.
"Ding!"
With a crisp sound, the system's voice echoed in his mind.
"There are many tasks, but not many are suitable for the host at the moment!"
"It's okay!"
Li Yue smiled faintly!
"I've brought in a few helpers. If I can't complete it, aren't there still Deadpool and Max?"
"..."
The system was silent. After a while, a light blue virtual screen appeared in his mind.
The screen wasn't large, but it was densely packed with tasks.
Li Yue took a look and couldn't help but gasp.
"Kill 'Hulk' Banner!"
"Save 'Abomination'!"
"Seize the 'Saint-Venganza Contract'!"
"Seize 'Thor's Hammer'!"
"Kill Professor X Charles!"
...
There was a dense list of tasks, everything imaginable!
The involved forces and heroes were also diverse, and the content left Li Yue speechless.
For example, the first one, kill 'Hulk' Banner!
System, are you sure you're not joking? Can anyone really kill this guy?
Just at first glance, Li Yue ruled out this task.
Whether it was himself, Deadpool, or Electro, none of them were currently a match for Banner.
If they angered this guy, it wouldn't be good if the Hulk went berserk.
Mind control or anything like that was completely useless against this guy. Who would dare to control him? Who would dare to confuse him?
No one!
When strength reached its peak, everything was trash in front of the Hulk.
Moreover, Li Yue hadn't seen the Hulk yet and didn't know if this guy was the one from the movies, the one from the comics, or neither.
But no matter which possibility, the Hulk couldn't be provoked at the moment.
Although the others were difficult, there was still a glimmer of hope.
Whether it was killing Professor X or seizing Thor's Hammer, there was still some possibility.
After all, although Professor X's mind control was powerful, it could be artificially shielded.
Moreover, Li Yue's abilities could also interfere with the professor. Once there was an opportunity, with Deadpool stepping in, a teleporting strike would make killing Professor X quite easy.
As for seizing Thor's Hammer!
Heh heh!
Not to mention that the plot of "Thor" hadn't unfolded yet, and Thor hadn't been deemed worthy of the hammer yet.
Even if he had already obtained the hammer, Li Yue would have plenty of opportunities.
After all, this guy often threw the hammer around carelessly; there were plenty of opportunities to take advantage.
As for how to pick up that hammer that no one else could lift? Li Yue said that the system would solve this seemingly troublesome little problem.
...
After carefully looking at the large pile of tasks in his mind, Li Yue pondered with a thoughtful expression, mused for a moment, and then chose a few tasks suitable for himself, Deadpool, and Max.
"Let's choose these three! After completing these three, we'll see how much energy the system can steal. If it's not enough for the 'Ark' plan, we'll take on new tasks!"
Such a thought flashed through Li Yue's mind, and he thus chose three tasks.
He, Deadpool, and Max would each take one.
And these three tasks were!
"Seize the 'Saint-Venganza Contract'"
"Kill 'Daredevil' Matt!"
"Kill 'Hobgoblin' Harry!"
These three tasks,
None of them seemed particularly difficult.
The first was the ancient contract from "Ghost Rider," which could summon endless souls when read aloud. It was a treasure that Mephisto's son, Heartless, wanted to seize.
As long as he devoured the souls within, Heartless could become the new Demon King, completely breaking free from the restrictions of his father, Demon King Mephisto.
Therefore, wanting to seize this thing was like snatching food from Heartless's mouth!
Of course, Ghost Rider and Mephisto would also be eyeing it.
But Li Yue wasn't afraid. He had already decided that he would personally complete this first task.
He had already figured out exactly what to do.
As for the remaining two, they could be left to Deadpool and Max.
When it came to killing, it was more appropriate to leave it to the professionals.
"The tasks are chosen. When those two come back, we'll arrange it!"
After a moment of thought, Li Yue began to meticulously plan his upcoming task.
...
1:00 PM.
On the top floor of Noah Tower, in the chairman's office.
At this moment, only Li Yue was there, sitting in a chair, holding a book in his hand.
The book's title was "The Interpretation of Dreams"!
A work about dreams and the mind. Li Yue was reading it very seriously.
To his right, there was a large bookshelf.
The bookshelf was densely packed with books. Looking closely, the books on it were diverse, covering various aspects.
Science, biology, mathematics, physics, language, philosophy...
Even the myths and legends of some countries were included.
For Li Yue, it was always good to learn more, no matter when. Knowledge was not just a kind of power, but also a kind of accumulation.
With more accumulation, a person would become enriched.
Recently, he had become fascinated with things related to hypnosis and dreams, so whenever he had free time, he would pick up such books to read.
"Hypnotism," "Psychology," "Zhuang Zhou," "Leimengkat's Philosophy of Mind," "Exploring the Subconscious," "The Interpretation of Dreams"...
Just as he was engrossed in reading, suddenly, the space in the room warped and flashed, and Deadpool, dressed in red and black, appeared before Li Yue.
Immediately after.
Electric light flickered, the air crackled, and Max's figure also appeared.
"You guys are here!"
Li Yue put down the book!
"Sit!"
Deadpool and Electro Max sat down, leaning back on the sofa.
"Hey, Smurf, be careful not to scorch the sofa!"
"Shut up! With my control over electricity, how could something like that happen!"
"Who knows? You look... oh, I don't mean to be discriminatory, but you just look... very dangerous!"
Deadpool unceremoniously mocked Max.
These two guys hadn't gotten along since their last fight.
Max was okay; he was usually taciturn and wouldn't say much even if he was unhappy about something.
But Deadpool!
Well, he was just Deadpool.
"Bootlegger, do you want to fight?"
Max got angry. He really didn't know how long he had been complaining about Deadpool's suit in his heart.
It was simply a blatant rip-off of the Spider-Man suit.
Spider-Man had always been a hero in Electro's heart before Max mutated.
Although that feeling had faded now, Max still had a lot of goodwill towards Spider-Man.
"Alright, alright, you two stop arguing!"
Li Yue was speechless. He waved his hand, "I didn't call you two here to listen to you argue!"
His expression became serious, and he continued, "Guys, we have tasks."
"Oh, tasks, I love tasks. Boss, just say what the task is, guaranteed completion!"
As soon as Deadpool heard about tasks, the corner of his mouth under his mask couldn't help but curl up.
After so many days of boredom, there was finally something to do.
"Boss, what tasks!" Max asked.
"Well, there are a total of three tasks. Each of us will take one."
Li Yue paused, then continued, "Your two tasks are very simple: killing people!"
"The two people to be killed are 'Daredevil' and 'Hobgoblin'!"
"I know Daredevil, I heard he's blind, but who is this 'Hobgoblin'? Could it be the son of the deceased 'Green Goblin'?" Deadpool quipped.
"That's correct, he's the son of the 'Green Goblin'! As for his real identity, you might not know!"
"'Green Goblin' is named Norman Osborn, and 'Hobgoblin' is his son, Harry Osborn!"
"Norman Osborn, Harry Osborn? The chairman of Osborn Corporation?"
Electro exclaimed. He was far too familiar with Osborn Corporation.
After all, he was an Osborn employee before, and he had some unpleasant memories there.
Even his mutation was due to Osborn Corporation.
"Boss, leave this task to me," Electro Max said, his tone incredibly serious at this moment.
