Chapter 978 Inside and Outside
On Earth in the Marvel Universe, there is an organization that was established much earlier than superhero organizations such as S.H.I.E.L.D., called the 'Brotherhood of the Shield'.
It was established by the Egyptian sage Imhotep to maintain the survival of mankind as the guardian of human secrets. Most of the sages in history were its members, such as Newton, Galileo, and Leonardo da Vinci.
In China, as early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a wise man who joined the Holy Shield Brotherhood. He was Zhang Heng, who invented the seismometer.
Also, according to rumors, Zhang Heng once said, "Since ancient times, the spear has been in the East and the shield has been in the West." Therefore, to correspond to S.H.I.E.L.D., there was the S.H.I.E.L.D.
Compared with S.H.I.E.L.D., S.H.I.E.L.D. does not have any household superheroes. It only maintains peace in the East in secret. It only chooses to come to the fore after the Thanos incident in the future and instantly expands into a behemoth with 15 members.
In 2013, the S.H.I.E.A. was still very reserved and little known, but it already had a gorgeous aerospace fortress as its headquarters.
The director of the SHIELD is named Zheng Xian, a middle-aged man with squinty eyes who looks smiling and cheerful. At this moment, he is sitting behind the table, looking at Aizen with a smile and saying, "The communication is over. From now on, you don't need to worry about what measures SHIELD will take because of your actions, Mr. Aizen."
Aizen also smiled in the same way: "I'm really sorry, I have long guessed that there should be a superhero organization in our land of China, but I have never had the opportunity to contact it. I didn't expect that my first meeting would cause you great trouble."
"Small trouble, more of a surprise." Zheng Xian smiled and said, "After solving the external problems, can Mr. Aizen answer some questions for me?"
Aizen nodded slightly. "A fake identity can conceal an ordinary investigation, but it is likely to be full of loopholes in Director Zheng's case. I wonder how long Director Zheng has been the director of the Shenlei Bureau, and whether he has known about Japan's "Tsukuyomi Project"?"
"Moonlight Project?" Zheng Xian showed a hint of doubt.
He knew Tsukuyomi, or Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto, one of the three great gods of Japan. It was the god who ruled over the Kingdom of Night in Japanese mythology, and was also a mythical creature that actually existed in history.
In the Marvel world, mythological figures from various countries and China's heaven basically all existed in reality. Thor even knelt down to worship the Jade Emperor, but now most of the gods have disappeared, and the vast majority of them have already fallen.
Zheng Xian didn't know whether Japan's Tsukuyomi was still alive, but the so-called "Tsukuyomi Project"... was it an attempt to revive the gods?
"As you can imagine, it was a top-secret plan to bring Tsukuyomi back to the world and put her in the hands of the Japanese authorities. They secretly collected countless orphans, baptized them with the soil of the moon core, fed them with the powder of the holy relics left by Tsukuyomi, and transformed them with various drugs and mechanical stimulations, hoping to make the children the carriers of Tsukuyomi's revival."
Zheng Xian frowned and looked at Aizen.
"Yes, I am one of them." Aizen smiled, "and I am one of the last six semi-finished products. I may have gained some power from Tsukuyomi, or I may have gained some abnormal abilities due to the stimulation, but it doesn't matter.
In early 2008, a 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck Honshu Island. Coincidentally, the base of the Tsukuyomi Project was located near the epicenter of the earthquake. If you look for it now, you can still find the worst chemical plant explosion in that earthquake, which killed all 127 people... No one was spared! "
Huh? That explosion was actually...
Zheng Xian's heart was slightly shaken, looking at the smiling Aizen in front of him, scenes seemed to be played in his mind. A boy who had been tortured as an experimental subject since childhood was unwilling to become the carrier of Tsukuyomi, lost himself, took advantage of a natural disaster, created a man-made disaster, and wiped out everything!
There are more than one or two problematic superheroes, and Zheng Xian has seen many of them. However, Aizen, who seemed to be telling a story about a tragedy that had nothing to do with himself, still made him feel a little cold in his heart.
Why? This person is too plain.
"So you are Japanese?"
"Ah, my name used to be Aizen Sosuke, but now, I'm just Aizen." Aizen smiled and said, "My past experiences may make me a little different from ordinary people, please forgive me, Director Zheng."
Zheng Xian nodded: "I understand."
Of course he would not believe everything Aizen said, and would conduct a detailed investigation later, but at least now he felt that it was basically correct and he did not have any unwarranted suspicion towards this well-known entrepreneur.
Up to now, the existence of Lan's Technology Group has been helping the country catch up with the gap with developed countries, and its enthusiasm for charity has also given them a good vent.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Mr. Aizen, can you briefly tell me about your 'power'?"
"Of course." Aizen replied, "It's a hypnotic type, which can be roughly called 'cognitive enhancement'.
It's not about tampering with cognition without reason. Of course, if I am given enough time to carry out the work, I can also achieve the effect of brainwashing. For example, it took me three years from planning to escaping and destroying the research base.
Since the establishment of the company, I have only used the most superficial reinforcement. For example, Qi Xing, the head of our company's scientific research team, loves this country, but he is only 50-50 whether he will give up everything in the United States and return to China. I strengthened his patriotic awareness, and he returned immediately.
Most of the scientists I recruited had their perceptions of 'love for money' or 'suffering injustice' reinforced by me, and so on."
"In other words, I am sitting opposite you, and you may have inadvertently reinforced my perception of 'trusting you'?" Zheng Xian said with a joking smile.
Aizen remained silent.
Then Zheng Xian's smile gradually disappeared.
Aizen then laughed: "Of course not. Although Director Zheng Xian is an ordinary person, he must be extraordinary since he can sit in such an important position as the Director of the Divine Spear Bureau. Your willpower is very outstanding. I can't change your cognition without you noticing."
Zheng Xian didn't know whether he should believe it or not, but he didn't seem to care too much. He shook his head and said, "Is this the only auxiliary power? Tsukuyomi?"
"Of course not only that. This power will be strengthened at night, and it can change other people's cognition, and naturally it can also change your own, achieving the effect of strengthening yourself."
Aizen said: "I have never seen or heard of superheroes, and I don't know how strong I am. But regardless of other things, this armor should be enough for me to become a superhero, right? I don't think our design will be weaker than that of the American Iron Man."
It is difficult to compare the performance, it may be one point weaker, but the key point lies in "mass production".
Zheng Xian stood up and said, "Would you mind doing a detailed test with me?"
"Of course." Aizen agreed.
He followed Zheng Xian out of the office and walked all the way to the testing base of the Shenlei Bureau headquarters. On the way, Aizen responded to Zheng Xian's questions casually, and improved his "resume" bit by bit.
Nothing will go wrong, because he has been preparing for this day for five years since he came into this world! With his ability, he must have considered every aspect carefully.
What's more, when the false is made to appear true, the true becomes false. Japan did have such experiments, but there was no such person as Aizen in the experimental base. His ability did include cognitive rewriting, but the strength was much more exaggerated than he said. Not to mention Zheng Xian who was face to face, he could even tamper with the entire earth in an instant.
As for the use of the name Aizen Sosuke, there is no problem with it. The Marvel world does not belong to the first category of the Extreme World. At least there are no comics in this universe, so no one will know his name. The only ones who know his name are the people or demons who invaded here from the star realm.
Will he be noticed by some omniscient beings in the Marvel world? It doesn't matter. This is his original mission - to help Ji Xing attract attention.
The more attention they paid to him, the less noticeable 'Qi Xing' would be in his company's scientific research team. No one would think that he was the core figure... As long as Ji Xing could find a way to avoid the attention of those guys.
The only thing Aizen didn't understand was that compared to participating in some big events in this way, it was obviously safest to hide in a corner and practice silently, so why did he have to step out in front of people?
Perhaps this has something to do with Ji Xingjun's unique way of invading the world.
As his thoughts turned, a breeze blew between Aizen and Zhengxian. Aizen looked over without surprise, and Zhengxian also stopped.
A short-haired woman in armor appeared in front of them. She had a unique temperament and a heroic look, and her age was completely invisible from her appearance.
Zheng Xian nodded gently and introduced: "Aizen, this is Ms. Gu Ying, the captain of our Shenlei Bureau who is responsible for training new personnel and the 'weather witch'."
Aizen extended his hand: "Hello."
……
If possible, in the Marvel world where there is more than one omniscient and omnipotent force, Ji Xing would definitely like to stay hidden in the corner, but he can't do it.
His invasion gains require starlight, which is difficult to obtain without being known.
If he wants to become stronger, he has to find a way to obtain treasures and break through himself. Infinity Gems, Phoenix Power and the like will not fall from the sky on his head, nor on Aizen's head.
As of today, he has been invading the Marvel world for four and a half years, and has been preparing diligently for four and a half years, and the second star has even been lit! This is unique among all the invasions, and it's time to stand up!
So Ji Xing stood in front of the reporters who gathered at the Lan Technology Group building because of the news of "mass production of Iron Man armor".
"Mr. Qi Xing, is Chairman Lan Ran not in the company now? Can you fully represent Lan's Technology Group?"
"As far as everyone knows, it has been five hours since Lan's Technology Group released the video footage of the 'Iron Man Armor Mass Production Model', but there has been no further action so far. The group's official Weibo account has not responded to the public's questions and expectations. Is there something wrong?"
"Is it true that the Iron Man armor is being mass-produced? Wouldn't this infringe on some patents?"
"Will the 'Iron Man Armor' be sold to the public? What is the price?"
"Excuse me……"
Amid the noisy questions, Ji Xing raised his hands and clapped them, signaling the reporters to be quiet. Then he smiled and said, "I have been authorized by the chairman to answer a few questions that everyone is most concerned about on behalf of the group."
"First, the successful mass production of Iron Man armor is real, and the test video you have seen is not synthetic. The group will not joke about its reputation and stock price. However, there is one thing that needs to be emphasized. 'Iron Man Armor' is just a name that is easier for everyone to understand. The real name of our armor is 'Stardust Armored Mecha Type I', which is similar to Tony Stark's armor type, but the technological components are different, so there is no patent infringement involved."
The reporters' eyes lit up and they quickly recorded the video. Ji Xing continued, "Second point, where is the land under our feet? It's China!
Even guns are taboo, how can the complete armor be sold to the outside world? It will only be provided to the military. Well, don't worry, please note that I said "complete armor". We are actively negotiating and hope to sell the "abridged version of armor" as a means of transportation, just like a private car or a private plane.
Of course, there will definitely be a systematic "driver's license assessment" that will require a lot of effort and money. If it meets expectations, in a year, a group of people from wealthy families will be able to drive the bullet-free armored vehicles, realizing our individual human dream of flying!"
There was an uproar among the reporters, and one reporter asked, "When you say a family is well-off... do you mean that only the rich can afford it?"
"That's about right. After all, scientific research is very expensive. We can't reduce the price of armor to a level that most people can afford."
Ji Xing said frankly: "But don't be disappointed! The maturity of a technology is often accompanied by the development of many branch technologies. In the process of developing the Nebula Armored Mecha Type I, we have also made a major breakthrough in mechanical prostheses!
We would like to take this opportunity to recruit volunteers from the whole society. Chinese citizens with injuries ranging from broken fingers to broken arms and legs can sign up on our group's official website. We will customize and install prosthetic limbs for 100 people free of charge.
Prosthetic limbs include technologies such as neuron repair and brain wave correction, which can restore more than 95% of the feeling brought by real limbs! "
"..."
"More than 95%?!"
"Mr. Qi Xing, can you really be responsible for what you said?!"
"When did Lan's Technology start conducting research in this area?"
Ji Xing shook his head and suddenly emphasized: "From the beginning to the end! Maybe everyone's impression of us has always been a good 'smartphone manufacturer' and 'smart home appliance manufacturer', but Lan's Technology's goal has never been here!
Three years ago, the chairman’s words made me give up my high-paying job in the United States and return to the land where I was born and raised.
He said, "You are in the United States, you are in New York, have you seen superheroes? Captain America, Iron Man, or others, they are admired by everyone, do you envy them? Superheroes protect the earth and us in various disasters, and they are indeed worthy of everyone's admiration.
But admiration is not just looking up to us, because we are also superheroes. As sons, we are superheroes for our parents, and as fathers, we are superheroes for our children. The future of each of us has infinite possibilities. We can shine in various environments and meet the most shining moment unexpectedly.'"
Looking at the reporters who had quieted down, Ji Xing smiled and said loudly: "The birth of the armed mecha is by no means the end. Eliminating disabled prosthetic limbs and prosthetic eyes is just a small step for us. Next, we will continue to research serums that can improve everyone's physical fitness, and even research substances that can induce supernatural powers!
Please remember, the goal of Lanshi Technology is to make everyone as bright as a star! "
Half an hour later, Ji Xing and his words made headlines on major newspapers and magazine websites, and seven of the top ten hot searches were related to Lan's Technology.
At the same time, Aizen also went through complicated tests and officially joined the SHIELD Bureau, becoming a superhero!
The two have clear division of labor. Aizen is in charge of external affairs but hides inside, while Jixing is in charge of internal affairs but is often seen in public!
