Marvel Start With Reality Stone - Chapter 52
“Speak.”
“What do you want?”
As someone identified by the ‘Dragon Ball Modified Power Scouter’ as having an intelligence of 5, Qi Jun was indeed smart enough. However, before his transmigration, due to life’s demands, he had to use his cleverness for survival, leading to poor academic performance.
But that doesn’t mean Qi Jun isn’t intelligent!
Even though Tony Stark was making all kinds of exaggerated facial expressions that would make anyone want to laugh, Qi Jun was unmoved and could tell that Tony Stark must have wanted something from him.
However, Qi Jun had yet to figure out what the famed Iron Man could want from a recent Chinese immigrant to the United States of America.
Could it be to learn Chinese? Or perhaps kung fu?
But Qi Jun didn’t bother to think about it.
Generally speaking, Westerners are pretty straightforward, and while some beat around the bush, Qi Jun was confident that the superhero before him—Iron Man—wasn’t one of them.
Moreover, since the other party had a request, they would state it. If not, how could it be a request? Why should Qi Jun bother guessing?
………………….
“It’s good that you have a request!”
“If you have a request, your information won’t be leaked like that.”
“At least, I’ve never heard of HYDRA getting any information from Iron Man!”
“On the contrary, Iron Man strolls through the S.H.I.E.L.D. database as if it were his backyard.”
Thinking this, Qi Jun put on a cunning, er, no, harmonious, friendly smile.
“What do you want to know?”
“Or, what do you want to get from me?”
Seeing Tony Stark suddenly confused before him, Qi Jun felt the so-called playboy, Iron Man, wasn’t so high and mighty.
………………….
“Who exactly are you?”
Asked by Qi Jun, Tony Stark’s brilliant mind began to work at high speed.
Clang~~
The Iron Man helmet visor closed, and a data stream scrolled before Tony Stark.
Previous conclusions were quickly overturned, and new questions began to emerge.
It wasn’t long before Iron Man’s visor opened again, and this time, Tony Stark’s expression was severe.
“You have a strong physique, impressive physical qualities, and formidable strength!”
“According to universal standards, such a person should have a wealth of experience.”
“But according to my investigation, you have lived no differently from an ordinary person for the past twenty years!”
“Even though I hacked into some intelligence agencies, I still couldn’t find any records of you that differ from ordinary people.”
Though spoken lightly, Tony Stark’s expression was anything but modest; it was full of pride.
“So!”
“I want to ask, how did you come by your strength?”
“I want to ask, why are you suppressing your power and content to be an ordinary person?”
“Of course, these aren’t important.”
“What I want to know is: how did you get your physical qualities?”
“Are your physical qualities related to the Super Soldier Serum?”
“Can others achieve the same physical condition through some training or medication?”
After quickly pondering for a moment, Tony Stark asked the questions he wanted answers to.
Tony Stark wanted to ask if Qi Jun had been injected with the Super Soldier Serum.
But he thought better of it, as it was their first meeting, and the other person might not tell even if he asked.
The famous story Iron Man never doubted that doubts’s identity might be completely fabricated!
………………….
“No need to be nervous.”
Glancing at Iron Man’s palm cannon, which had begun to charge silently, Qi Jun scoffed and shook his head.
Of course, Qi Jun didn’t think anything was wrong with Tony Stark’s actions.
Think about it: if a stranger suddenly approached you and asked why you’re so vital if you have any secrets, and if you could share those secrets, what would you do?
Or, from another perspective, what would you do if you were rich and a stranger approached asking for your secret to wealth and whether you could share that secret?
“First off!”
“I am just an ordinary person.”
“Yes, that’s right!”
“Put away that look that makes people want to punch you.”
“What’s wrong with being an ordinary person?”
“Did I make a mistake by being an ordinary person?”
“Did I eat your family’s rice by being ordinary?”
As someone who transmigrated to the Marvel world at the snap of a finger, Qi Jun was not about to be meek and polite.
“Yes!”
“I’m just an ordinary person!”
“At most, I just have some abilities I’d rather not show.”
Seeing Tony Stark’s lips curl up after this statement, Qi Jun couldn’t be bothered to respond.
“Actually.”
“I know what you’re trying to say!”
“You went around in a big circle, but you want to ask me if I’ve ever been injected with the Super Soldier Serum?
“Or something similar to the Super Soldier Serum, right?”
Seeing Tony Stark nod involuntarily, Qi Jun immediately responded with a disdainful scoff.
“Then I can responsibly tell you!”
“No!”
“I swear, I’ve never been injected with any such substance!”
[Well, I’ve just taken it orally!] Qi Jun chuckled to himself.
“I know what you want to ask.”
As Tony Stark was about to speak, Qi Jun cut him off.
“Are you going to say it’s impossible?”
“Are you going to say that an ordinary person couldn’t possess such powerful strength without those injections?”
Seeing Tony Stark nod again, Qi Jun scoffed again: “Then I must say, you know nothing about power!”
“Not to mention, the U.S. military has created a genetic monster!”
“Though it does have a bit to do with the Super Soldier Serum, it doesn’t.”
“I can give you a few keywords to search for yourself.”
“General Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross; Bruce Banner; the Hulk!”
Clang!!!
Watching the Iron Man helmet close again, Qi Jun began to ponder.
The epic clash between Abomination and the Hulk was about to happen, and Qi Jun was ready to cash in big on this.
Though he could teleport his mind, the benefits Qi Jun could gain were enormous, but those were done in secrecy.
Qi Jun wanted to be able to show off his capabilities openly.
There’s a saying: the greater the power, the greater the wealth!
Qi Jun felt that becoming the wealthiest man in the world shouldn’t be a problem for him.
