Reed Richards' level is beyond reproach. Samuel tinkered with the repaired Time Controller a few times.
A rectangular golden portal instantly unfolded before everyone's eyes.
It was obvious that this was a door that could lead to other timelines or other parallel Worlds.
"Whoosh—"
Samuel canceled the time portal and looked at the electronic collar on the lab bench.
"Can it be used?"
Reed Richards hesitated slightly, somewhat uncertain.
"It should be possible."
"Okay."
Samuel nodded slightly.
"Snap!"
Almost at the same time, the electronic collar that was originally on the lab bench was already cuffed around Benjamin's neck.
Benjamin froze for a few seconds, then realized what Samuel was going to do and rushed over angrily, wanting to snatch the controller.
Samuel smiled slightly and gently manipulated the controller.
"Whoosh—"
In an instant, Benjamin, who had already rushed over, returned to his original position.
Benjamin was stunned for a moment, then rushed over again.
"Whoosh—"
He returned to his original spot again.
Benjamin widened his eyes and grabbed the collar with both hands, wanting to forcibly take it off. As a result, Samuel's subsequent operation made him start flashing rapidly on the spot.
"Swish swish swish— swish swish swish—"
The infinite, uninterrupted rapid flashing made it impossible for Benjamin to take any action at all. He could only watch himself appear repeatedly in the same location.
For reference, see the main timeline Loki and Time Guardian B-15 in Loki's solo series.
Reed Richards couldn't bear it and was about to plead for mercy, but Samuel suddenly unlocked the collar on Benjamin's neck, waved his hand to recall it, and put it in his pants pocket.
"The basic functions are fine, You did a good job."
Samuel patted Reed Richards' shoulder seriously, not looking like he had deliberately teased Benjamin at all.
"Are You interested in working for me long-term?"
"Sky Carrier, starships, alien technology, these are all things this World doesn't have and can't access. As long as You work for me, You can personally repair these good things that every aspiring scientist dreams of!"
Reed Richards hesitated, wanting to speak, but Samuel continued to entice him.
"I remember Your dream is to observe solar rays and decipher the secret of human genetic inheritance through the data of solar rays."
"I just said, I have starships, the kind with alien technology!"
"One year!"
"As long as You work for me for one year, I will fund You to go into space and fulfill Your dream."
Reed Richards opened his mouth, subconsciously looking at his friend who was clearly angry but remained quiet.
Benjamin knew how important this dream was to him.
Moreover, although he seemed reckless and didn't seem to take Samuel seriously at all, he actually knew very well that if they didn't sign any confidentiality agreement, the outcome of refusing the invitation might not be too good—
Reed Richards also knew that Samuel's identity and background were problematic, and whether he accepted the invitation or not, there might be trouble. However, the conditions Samuel offered were too tempting for him.
Starships, alien technology, funding him to go into space to observe solar storms, each of these was something that a scientist like him, who pursued science his entire life, could not refuse!
"I, I agree."
"A wise choice!"
Samuel told Reed Richards and Benjamin to handle their school and personal matters as soon as possible, and also had Reed Richards list a list of equipment.
If this World has it, let the White Queen use the 'funds' she brought to buy it. If this World doesn't have it, go back to the Marvel Universe or other Worlds to get it!
In short, get whatever is needed, as long as Reed Richards can turn those 'garbage' in the Void into treasure and make them brand new!
Reed Richards and Benjamin will be taken to the Void, but the solar storm event that will make them the Fantastic Four in the future cannot be missed either.
The abilities of the Fantastic Four are only one aspect. Don't forget, this World also has the Silver Surfer and Galactus!
Having settled Reed Richards and Benjamin, Samuel thought of Susan.
In terms of looks, the future Invisible Woman is definitely among the best among Marvel women.
Although there is no suitable reason to take her away with him now, Samuel has already figured out how to arrange for her.
The Sun was bright, and the sky was clear.
On the lawn within the campus, under the big tree where they first met, Samuel asked Susan to come out.
"I thought you had given up."
Drinking the coffee Samuel handed over, Susan, sitting on the lawn, blinked at him.
"People are in a hurry, just for a few pieces of silver, but these few pieces of silver can solve all kinds of worldly melancholy."
"Pieces of silver, that's money."
"So..."
Samuel didn't apologize for not contacting her since their last date, but he gave an explanation.
"My career focus isn't here, but because of you, I want to start a company here. Are you willing to help me?"
Susan was stunned: "Are you serious? Starting a company is such a big deal. I don't want your decision to be because of me; that would be too hasty."
Samuel smiled and held her hand.
