Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, ten days passed.
Although Samuel had the intention of taking Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver under his wing early, there were priorities. Anyway, the siblings weren't going to run away from Sokovia, so a few days earlier or later wouldn't make much difference.
On the contrary, the handover date for the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters building had arrived. The sooner they moved in, the sooner they could enjoy it.
These ten days he was either with Suzy, or with Ying Nan, or with both sisters. The longing from their separation had already been released during their constant companionship.
Samuel had also bestowed the Ten Rings upon all of the more than thirty young men and women who came out of Tuke, and he also brushed up their Dragon Force and Ten Rings while they were practicing.
The sun was bright and the sky was clear.
219 West 47th Street, New York, the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters building.
Samuel arrived downstairs with Jessica Jones and Power Woman and saw Nick Fury, Phil Coulson, and Bobby walking towards them.
This combination made Samuel feel a bit out of place.
It was mainly Phil Coulson. Usually, his partner as the Village Chief of the novice Village was Melinda May, and occasionally it would be Natasha. Now that it was Bobby, the aura felt a bit mismatched.
"This place will belong to You from now on. Congratulations, You are the first person to get hold of a vacant S.H.I.E.L.D. Base. Besides You, no one else should be able to do it."
Nick Fury said with a smile, teasing Samuel, his gaze looking at the two people beside him.
"This is Jessica Jones, and this is?"
"Kara," Power Woman said.
Nick Fury nodded, and couldn't help but feel a hint of admiration and envy towards Samuel.
Although he didn't know what this Kara was capable of, since she could be brought along by Samuel, she must have some special ability.
Where on earth did this guy Samuel find these extraordinary people with special abilities?
You should know that a long time ago, because of Carol Danvers, Nick Fury had always wanted to form a team of 'Avengers' composed of extraordinary people.
Unfortunately, after so many years, there wasn't even a shadow of the Avengers team.
In contrast, Samuel had extraordinary people around him who were stronger than the last, and new people would occasionally appear.
The most irritating thing was that these people were also very loyal and obedient, truly acting as obedient couriers.
It was simply a waste of resources!
The more Nick Fury thought about it, the more sour he felt. He truly experienced what it meant to be envious, jealous, and hateful!
Nick Fury secretly took a deep breath, waved to Phil Coulson and Bobby, and motioned for them to leave first.
Then, he lowered his voice and said, "We moved in a hurry, and there are some surveillance and listening devices that weren't taken away. Don't forget to deal with them."
Samuel raised an eyebrow and teased, "You would be so kind? I thought You were the one who wanted to monitor me the most."
Nick Fury said frankly, "If I could do it without You finding out, I would definitely monitor You. After all, even if You and your Void Express are doing legitimate business, the threat is too great."
"If I can't counterbalance You, I can only try to keep track of your every move."
"However…"
Nick Fury shook his head, "Without absolute certainty and before You cause substantial harm to this World, I don't want to be your enemy. I also won't do things that might cause misunderstandings."
Samuel sighed, "You're so honest it's making me a little awkward. You're the biggest spy chief in this World. If You don't look for trouble with me, I'll feel bad about messing with You."
Nick Fury's face turned completely black. Listen, listen, are those the words of a human? So, You've been wanting to cause me trouble all along!
In fact, putting aside the preconceived notions, the two encounters with Nick Fury left Samuel with a pretty good impression!
After all, Samuel's goal was just to develop his own power. His opponents were on the level of the Time Variance Authority and the Multiverse War.
S.H.I.E.L.D., or rather Nick Fury, he didn't consider them opponents at all, so if they could coexist peacefully, Samuel wouldn't specifically target him.
It's just that according to the habits of most American comic book transmigrators, Nick Fury is the destined villain. If he's not killed as a sacrifice, the transmigration feels incomplete.
In fact, some of Nick Fury's thinking and actions can indeed be considered villainous, but his starting point is indeed for the greater good, so it's inevitable that some relevant people will be wronged!
As long as the injustice doesn't fall on himself, Samuel is too lazy to bother!
"When do You need the spaceship?" Samuel asked.
Nick Fury said, "I need to prepare a bit. I'll let You know when I'm ready."
"Okay, then that's it. You can go."
"Wait, I have one more thing." Nick Fury hesitated, "The other missing Agents, could You…?"
"Getting greedy! I'm easy to talk to, but that doesn't mean I'm always easy to talk to. You'd better not give me a chance to lose my temper." Samuel glared at him and said lightly.
Seeing this, Nick Fury didn't continue to pester him. He nodded regretfully, turned around, and left.
"Window Girl, I'll leave the surveillance equipment and stuff to You. Find them as soon as possible, and be careful when You're looking!"
After Nick Fury left, Samuel looked at Power Woman with a smile.
"You can call me Kara, or you can call me Power Woman. Don't call me Skylight Woman anymore!"
Power Woman huffed impatiently, her eyes scanning through the building floor by floor.
...
Under her x-ray vision, these devices were useless no matter how well hidden they were!
Twenty minutes later, Power Woman arrived at the top floor with a large bag.
To be precise, it was the rooftop!
The rooftop was originally a helipad, but Samuel felt that a helipad was not very useful. After all, neither he nor others used planes very often.
If there was a real need, there were flying equipment or abilities available.
Moreover, with teleportation ability, wasn't it better than a plane at a critical moment?
Even if the company's business required transporting goods, they could use other logistics methods or locations. There was no need to have a helipad and have people flying over their heads all day.
"I plan to build a swimming pool here and create a sky garden."
"At that time, I'll set up a lounge chair in the garden, bask in the Sun, drink fine wine, and watch hot beautiful women in cool clothes swim in the pool."
Samuel was telling Jessica Jones about his plans when he saw Power Woman coming over with a bag. He smiled and asked, "What do you think of my idea?"
"Not very good!" Power Woman pouted.
Samuel said nonchalantly, "Don't you want to swim a few laps in the swimming pool on a hot summer day? After coming out, sit in the small garden with birds singing and flowers fragrant, feeling the breeze and drinking wine?"
...
The scene Samuel described made Power Woman a little tempted.
Listening to it like that, it really seemed better than a bare helipad!
