Looking at the strange trio outside the door, Lin Feng sighed and still invited them into his home.
However, he didn't make them tea. How precious were the leaves of the Tree of Life? They weren't worthy of Lin Feng bringing out such a treasure to entertain them.
Lin Feng just took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Natasha.
That's right, only Natasha got one. This was a privilege for beauties!
Natasha, who took the water, rolled her eyes at Lin Feng, as if accusing him of what happened last time.
The group sat down, and Black Nick Fury stared intently at Lin Feng with his one eye, making the atmosphere heavy.
"Your actions last night caused a huge impact!" Black Nick Fury immediately dropped a bombshell, getting straight to the point.
"Impact?"
"What impact? Does the citizens of New York cheering count?" Lin Feng sat lazily on the sofa.
Good heavens, he's trying to label me right away? Do I look like I'm easily intimidated?
"I'm not joking with you, Lin Feng!" Black Nick Fury said seriously.
"What you did last night has already been placed on the Oval Office's desk."
"If I hadn't stopped it, you'd be seeing a bunch of soldiers right now." Black Nick Fury deliberately exaggerated the seriousness of the problem, constantly probing Lin Feng.
"Don't try to test me with your S.H.I.E.L.D. tactics, Nick Fury." Lin Feng waved his hand impatiently, seeing through Black Nick Fury's ploy at a glance.
"Did I commit some crime?" Lin Feng sneered disdainfully, not taking the bait at all.
"As for soldiers, even Iron Man can't withstand one punch from me."
"If they're not afraid of death, let them come." Lin Feng directly confronted him, his attitude very firm.
Trying to scare me? That tactic is too low-level.
Seeing that Lin Feng wasn't falling for it, Black Nick Fury didn't get angry.
"Lin Feng, we're here to help you." Black Nick Fury changed his approach and continued to persuade, "Joining the Avengers Initiative is the only way to put some people at ease."
"I think you're smart enough to know who I'm talking about." Black Nick Fury hinted, believing Lin Feng would understand what he meant.
Lin Feng snorted coldly and retorted, "Why should I put them at ease?"
"This isn't child's play," Black Nick Fury said.
"You need to live, Lin Feng. This is a mutually beneficial arrangement."
"You give them assurance, and they will give you the life you want."
Since intimidation didn't work, he resorted to a gentler approach. Black Nick Fury's control over human psychology was very precise.
"This world is far more complex than you imagine. When disaster strikes in the future, we must stick together!"
"Complex, disaster?" Lin Feng stared coldly at Black Nick Fury. Originally, he was too lazy to say some things, but now he was ready to drop a bombshell on Black Nick Fury.
"What's complex? Is the Cosmic Cube complex? I imagine you haven't even figured out what that thing is yet!"
"That's definitely complex."
He knew that S.H.I.E.L.D. was still studying that blue cube, and it was not something humans could thoroughly research.
"How do you know about the Cosmic Cube!" Black Nick Fury's pupils suddenly constricted, a sense of crisis and doubt welling up in his heart.
The existence of the Cosmic Cube was a S.H.I.E.L.D. secret. How could Lin Feng know about this?
"How do I know? Disaster comes from your reckless research!" Lin Feng said amusedly.
"Some things cannot be kept on Earth. Taking it will cause disaster."
"You always bring trouble upon yourselves."
"You're always wise after the event. Isn't the existence of the Kree enough to make you wake up?"
"Some people always like to show off. Do you think everything is under your planning and control?"
Lin Feng spoke several sentences in a row, the information contained within them shockingly vast.
Black Nick Fury stared intently at Lin Feng without speaking. He couldn't understand why Lin Feng knew so much.
It completely exceeded his expectations.
"I will not join S.H.I.E.L.D., nor will I join the Avengers Initiative."
"Nick Fury, you don't need to waste your time with me."
"If those people have an opinion, then let them come directly to me!"
"I don't mind treating them the same way I treated that big monster last night!"
Lin Feng said. Joining these organizations now would only restrict him.
If anyone was unhappy with him, then they could compete to see whose fist was harder!
Hearing Lin Feng's resolve, Black Nick Fury suddenly sighed, his tone softening.
"Lin Feng, I don't know where you got so many secrets."
"But I still have to tell you, fists can't solve all problems!"
"Some things can't be handled by simply fighting and killing."
"Since you don't want to join the Avengers Initiative, how about considering becoming our external agent?" Black Nick Fury said. This was also part of his plan.
Lin Feng was only 21 years old now, so it was inevitable for him to have the arrogance and self-importance of youth.
Coupled with such powerful abilities, it was also inevitable that he would be unwilling to admit defeat and be controlled by others!
Lin Feng's idea was simple: solve problems with his fists. However, in the adult world, using fists to deal with things is often the worst option.
It was unlikely to force a capable young man, Black Nick Fury knew this well, so he prepared two plans.
In fact, Lin Feng also knew that ruling the world with fists might work in chaotic times, but in today's society, being too rigid breaks easily.
He was young and impetuous, but fortunately, his values were sound.
After a moment of thought, Lin Feng gave his answer.
"I don't want to be controlled by anyone, Director Fury."
"I can agree to be your external force, as long as I'm not under your control."
"If there are any difficulties or places where help is needed, I can step in."
"The premise is that sufficient remuneration must be paid!"
Lin Feng proposed a cooperation plan, not being controlled by S.H.I.E.L.D., which avoided many problems.
Black Nick Fury pondered for a long time, and finally sighed.
The difficulty of dealing with Lin Feng completely exceeded his imagination.
From the moment he entered the door, after just two sentences, Lin Feng had taken the initiative into his own hands.
Lin Feng's understanding of this world completely exceeded his expectations.
Now, in his mind, Lin Feng was even more difficult to deal with than Tony Stark.
At least Tony didn't know as much as Lin Feng.
It seemed that he needed to rebuild his character model for Lin Feng.
"For now, this is the only way..." Black Nick Fury nodded. As an external aid, it was at least not without gain.
"I still hope you seriously consider it. Earth needs your abilities!" Black Nick Fury said tactfully.
"I will protect Earth in my own way, Director Fury."
"As a token of sincerity for our first cooperation, I suggest you go back and check how many loopholes there are in your S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
Lin Feng was ready to throw out a piece of information, to show his sincerity and, incidentally, to demonstrate his strength.
What you know, I know. What you don't know, I also know. This way, you will be more cautious in dealing with me in the future!
"Loopholes? What do you mean?" Black Nick Fury indeed took the bait.
"Cut off one head, and two more shall grow." Lin Feng calmly dropped another bomb, a sentence that made Black Nick Fury's pupils tremble!
Black Nick Fury leaned forward, his eyes once again fixed on Lin Feng, with a hint of horror and disbelief.
"This is impossible!" Hydra should have been completely annihilated. Now, Lin Feng's meaning was that Hydra existed within S.H.I.E.L.D.?
"I have no reason to lie to you. Go and check thoroughly, Director Fury." Lin Feng merely shrugged indifferently.
"Otherwise, S.H.I.E.L.D. will soon become Snake-H.I.E.L.D.!"
Black Nick Fury said no more, only giving Lin Feng a deep look before signaling Natasha and Coulson to leave the villa.
He needed to rush back and verify this information. If it was true, S.H.I.E.L.D. would be in danger.
After seeing Nick Fury and his group off, Lin Feng was completely drained.
Finally, he could have some peace and quiet. Confronting bigwigs was truly exhausting.
More tiring than a fight...
