Chapter 33 - Shen He’s Resolve

They had been having a perfectly good time.But after Tony blindsided him like that, Shen He could no longer ignore everything.

His phone showed only two missed calls from the two Rituals, and a text message saying that Violet wanted to come find him.

Looks like it was time to go back.

Shen He checked the time. Not late—just past nine.

He called the two Rituals.

No answer.

He tried again.

Still no answer.

Shen He's eyes narrowed, a faint panic rising in his chest.

Summon.

As long as a Servant was still alive, no matter where they were, they could be summoned to their Master's side.

There was no glow of light—only a drenched, exhausted two Rituals appeared before him, a knife clenched in her teeth, one arm fiercely holding Violet.

"Well now… there's a method like this?"

The two Rituals spat out the blade. Her body swayed, then collapsed directly into Shen He's arms.

She was completely drained.

"…Tony!"

Shen He shouted across the distance.

He didn't even understand his own emotions right now—guilt, self-blame, but above all…

Anger.

A massive, overwhelming anger. Anger deep enough that he wanted to kill someone. In this moment, he fully understood how Tony had felt back at the villa.

This had nothing to do with heroes or positions.It was simply revenge.

"Oh my God."Dr. Helen walked over with Tony. "They need immediate treatment. Tony, do you have medical supplies?"

"I do. Basement. J.A.R.V.I.S., cancel the party. Call in several top surgeons from my private hospital."Tony didn't hesitate. This was his new villa—emergency supplies were fully stocked, and there was even an operating room.

Shen He carried the two Rituals, while Helen helped with the unconscious Violet. Their previous healing bandages were all used up—this time, they could only rely on conventional medical methods.

After the doctors and nurses arrived, they began treating the two girls in the villa's medical room. Equipment was plentiful. Fortunately, neither was in critical condition.Violet had simply been knocked out with a powerful sedative, while the two Rituals had a severe shoulder injury—but with her enhanced physique, she had only fainted from exhaustion.

"He, I checked. Fifteen kilometers from here, a road seems to have had an explosion."Tony walked over with a tablet. "Aside from the ground being badly damaged, the scene has been cleared. No traces left. Do you have any idea who the attackers were?"

"…Yes."

Shen He uttered just one simple word.

Through the glass, he looked at the two unconscious girls inside the treatment room.They had been on their way to find him—only to be ambushed halfway.

All of this was the result of his hesitation,and the lie about Chaldea being able to foresee the future.

In this moment, Shen He finally understood what he needed to do.

He had to create Chaldea.

A real Chaldea.One that belonged to him and his Servants—genuine, powerful, and capable of protecting everything.Not just a fabricated organization spoken into the air.

"Tony."Shen He turned toward him, a calm unlike anything he'd shown before flickering in his eyes."Chaldea doesn't easily accept outsiders. But if you're willing, I can request the creation of an external branch here on Earth—an organization belonging to Chaldea, and to your people. Will you join?"

"Sounds way more reliable than Fury's Super Boy Scouts." Tony grinned with genuine satisfaction. "Of course I'll join."

This was what he wanted—information about the future, so he could prepare in advance, rather than leave everything to others.

"For now, keep this from S.H.I.E.L.D." Shen He's gaze returned to the treatment room. "I can tell you this first—S.H.I.E.L.D., even with a name change, might as well be called the Hydra Bureau. The ones who attacked your villa last time were also them.So now—we have our first common target."

The true horror of Hydra lay in their ability to manipulate forces from the shadows.

From what Shen He knew, one of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s highest-level directors was Hydra. The U.S. government—no, governments around the world—businessmen, gangs… who knew how many were Hydra?

A villainous organization with over 1,400 years of history, like an immortal cockroach, spread across nearly every parallel world in Marvel. Every time you thought you'd wiped it out, it crawled back to disgust you again.

Shen He hadn't handled them before—for two reasons:He hadn't been strong enough,and he didn't want to alert them too soon.

But now?

Even if they were just weeds—he wanted to cut them cleanly with one strike.

"So, what do we do first?" Tony was already itching to start. "Or rather, based on Chaldea's future observations, any suggestions?"

"We're going to look for people."Shen He patted his shoulder and turned toward the villa's lab."Heroes who will try to save the world in the future. Some are already around, some not yet. But either way, we'll get ahead—just like you did with Dr. Helen."

"That actually sounds kind of cool. I think I'm starting to enjoy this future-foresight thing." Tony followed behind him.

Once Shen He decided on something, the focus and clarity of a top-tier professional immediately emerged.

He knew his strongest trump card was the Servant Summoning System in his mind.It was the foundation for building Chaldea.

And since his last round of pulling, he had accumulated fifteen Summoning Stones.

But he hadn't drawn anything.

For a simple reason:He realized that he could barely afford the three Servants he already had.

The four-stars—two Rituals and Violet—were manageable.The five-star Saiki Kusuo, however, was an absolute devourer of experience.

Even with Saiki's terrifying farming efficiency, Shen He had accumulated plenty of fodder—but Servant strengthening was capped by his own mana level—his Master level.

And in that regard, the system was painfully slow.After grinding dungeons for nearly a month and a half… he was only level sixteen.

And leveling only got slower.

From his years of gaming experience, dungeons were meant for farming materials—the experience gained was completely disproportionate to the enemy difficulty.

There had to be other kinds of dungeons.

After studying the system for a while and getting nowhere, Shen He set it aside. There were more urgent matters.

"Tony, before finding people, we need a base."Shen He declared the first task for the newly established Chaldea."I'm done with enemies being able to attack whenever they want. We need an impregnable fortress—a headquarters."

"That new company factory I showed you this afternoon is perfect."Tony spread his hands in a wide circle."It already has basic structures, and I bought all the land within a five-kilometer radius.If you want to build an underground fortress, no problem at all."
