Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Transl ations
Was it Malick? Or was it Strucker? Or even.. Pierce? Names popped into Garrett’s head.
It could be any one of them, but there wasn’t enough motive.
To put it simply, it wouldn’t be beneficial for them to take action. ‘filose on the inside tended to stay in their own lanes.
The world was so big; there was plenty of room for everyone to expand. ‘Ihere was no need for them to enter someone else’s territory right now.
Furthermore, Lamar wasn’t Garrett’s alone; there was someone else involved with the Death Soldier prototype.
Technically speaking, Garrett only had part of the technology and the right to use it. Any subsequent development was the other person’s business.
Now that Lamar was gone, Garrett had to give an explanation.
Although he had kept his identity secret during this collaboration, Garrett didn’t want to provoke an enemy of this level. It would be too troublesome.
Thinking this, Garrett curled his lip. He would see who stirred up trouble with the other side! ‘Ihere were some secrets that shouldn’t be touched.
Thinking that, Garrett poured himself a cup of coffee and paid attention to his computer.
Luke found his first target, only to discover that the man was already in the
Slipped off so quickly.” He curled his lip and went to the residence of the second target, only to see a beautifully made-up woman about to leave.
She was a 40-year-old lady who was a department manager at a trading company. She was responsible for the transportation and storage of various
Since she was a woman, there was no reason for Luke to hesitate.
After Luke knocked her out, he used Pheromone Control, and she woke up, she spat out everything she knew.
But this person wasn’t very valuable.
She was a criminal, but all she knew was that she was helping someone transport illegal goods. She never looked too deep into it.
It could be said that she was very smart.
Because she knew too little, she was worthless.
Luke cursed inwardly, knowing that he had run into a low-ranking target.
But that couldn’t be helped. He only had a few targets that he could locate for This was DC. , and too big a move might draw the attention of the authorities.
In particular , some of the people on the list were probably at gatherings of influential figures at the moment; looking for each one would be wasting a lot of time.
Luke could only go through the easy targets first.
Those people weren’t in a hurry.
They were rich and powerful; how could they just disappear? They would lose decades’ worth of hard work Their identity was both a shield and a shackle; they had to bear its weight in order to protect themselves.
The third target was an electrical engineer called Todd McCerson, who had once helped Lamar debug and fine-tune the machinery.
When Luke found the engineer, Todd had just driven away.
Thankfully, there were fevver people in DC. , and it was a cold winters night, so Luke was able to track the driver by his scent.
Just as Luke was about to stop Todd’s car, two black SUVs suddenly turned around and forced Todd to stop.
‘IWo men in black hoods got out of an SUV , got Todd into their car, and left.
Luke raised an eyebrow. “What a coincidence.”
He didn’t touch them.
Engineer Todd wasn’t a bad guy. At the very least, the system had judged him to be a neutral yellow.
He was basically just a technician.
It was just like how the staff and workers who helped Starks vwapons division build missiles in bulk weren’t villains just because they built the missiles.
Luke hadn’t planned to eliminate this engineer Todd; he was just an informant.
Now, this information source had lured out a bunch of fully armed individuals.
Todd had done a great job.
Luke followed the two SUVs to a factory in the outskirts. He didn’t follow them inside.
There were surveillance cameras everywhere in the factory.
It wouldn’t be easy to sneak in silently.
Besides, there was no need for him to do so. With all the activity going on in such a large factory, there would inevitably be more clues left behind. Why would he rush in now and alert the enemy?
After asking the A1. to quickly check the database, he frowned.
He saw a very familiar name — Roxxon Energy.
This company wasn’t a small fry, but a super corporation that permeated the daily lives of Americans.
To give the simplest example, anyone who refueled their car would, three to five times out of ten, see the “ROXXON” sign on the gas pump.
The company had indeed been called Oil at the beginning, but had been renamed Roxxon Energy; its ambitions were obvious.
This company was quite famous in Luke’s eyes.
It was the biggest obstacle to Tony entering the energy industry.
The father of Tandy Bowen, the original ovmer of Light of Life, had been held responsible for the accident on the oil rig. Everything that his uidow and daughter had kiere seized, leaving them with nothing.
In addition, Roxxon had unclear ties to the Hand.
The biggest partner of Black Sky Elektra’s fathers company was Roxxon, and they had worked together to manufacture biological pharmaceuticals.
Elektra’s father had been dead for years, so after Luke imprisoned Elektra,
Rouon actually swallowed up the company.
In addition, NIatt and Foggy left their internships at a top-rate law firm uhen
Rouon Corporation wanted them to counter sue a terminally ill worker.
From these things, it wasn’t hard to see that Corporation was ruthless, and wasn’t just limited to the field of energy.
Instead, they used energy as a foundation to extend into more industries.
For example, they had subsidiaries or holdings which manufactured machine components, processed food ingredients and constructed
-end neighborhoods.
At the same time, the company invested a fair amount in clean energy, cutting-edge materials, biopharmaceuticals, and so on.
As a giant capitalist corporation, it certainly wasn’t stupid enough to invest directly.
It used all sorts of means to acquire shares in many small companies just before the latter reaped the fruits of their labor.
Whether it sold the shares or completely annexed the company depended on how big the benefits were.
In this respect, Jenny’s Titanium Phone Company was as pure as a newborn angel.
Even Stark Industries had boundaries.
Roxxon Corporation, on the other hand, was a model of a big capitalist. It wasn’t wrong at all to describe it with words like •ruthless,’ ‘cruel’ and tnalicious.’
It was just that most ordinary people wouldn’t hear the negative press on the company.
If Hydra was a poisonous nine-headed viper that could cause large numbers of innocent deaths each time, Roxxon Corporation was a ferocious jackal which needed to constantly hunt down the weak in order to live more comfortably.
Thinking for a moment, Luke set up a surveillance camera at an intersection near the factory and left.
It didn’t matter what role Roxxon played in this.
The important thing was that it was a crop field which he would harvest sooner or later, so he just ignored it this time..
