Chapter 2 - 2

In the Hawk Group's combat Laboratory, Nathan Hawke was skillfully using his abilities, including Psychokinesis and invisibility.

Besides his ability to summon villains, once successfully summoned, Nathan Hawke could gain a portion of the summoned entity's power.

Now, with the added boost from The Invisible Man, he finally possessed the strength to directly confront large-scale equipment.

Bullets then came flying rapidly.

Nathan Hawke endured a few bullets with his body, then with a wave of his hand, the rapidly incoming bullets were instantly deflected.

The last bullet was caught in his right hand, and after releasing it, he watched it slowly fall.

At this moment, the research staff outside the Laboratory were conducting data analysis and comparisons of Nathan Hawke's combat power.

He walked out of the Laboratory, took the handed-over report, and gained a more precise understanding of his own strength.

The respectful butler beside him approached and said to Nathan Hawke.

"Young Master, the board of directors is holding a meeting."

"I know."

After getting in the car, he remained silent, but felt annoyed internally.

The most famous consumer goods company in the country.

The company covers a wide variety of industries, making it one of the top-known enterprises in people's minds.

Stark Industries?

No, Tony Stark was more famous.

He arrived at the conference room and sat at the head of the table, looking at a group of old fogeys.

"Is there something important?"

A shareholder to Nathan Hawke's right, also the largest shareholder besides Nathan Hawke.

Rick Heim spoke, "Stark Industries' shares are falling."

As soon as these words were uttered, all the shareholders turned their gaze to him.

"So your plan is to acquire the other party's shares?"

Nathan Hawke understood the shareholders' intentions; they planned to use the company's funds and shares to acquire Stark Industries' shares.

However, according to the intelligence Nathan Hawke received, although various companies were attacking Stark Industries' shares, this had not caused any substantial losses, and Obadiah Stane was still very formidable.

Although after Stark returns and creates the Iron Man Suit, the weapons company will transform into an energy company, and with a series of operations, the group's shares will rapidly increase.

But Nathan Hawke had no intention of acquiring shares in the other company.

Because he had already begun preparations to incorporate all personnel from Stark Industries' weapons research and development department into the management of Umbrella Corporation.

This Umbrella Corporation refers to the second company controlled by Nathan Hawke, although this company is primarily led by Wesker on a practical level.

To protect the confidentiality of the "Superheroes Project," Nathan Hawke decided to transfer all personnel from Stark Industries' weapons research and development department to Umbrella Corporation.

When Hawk Group was founded, it was just a large consumer goods company, not strong enough to resist threats on a practical level.

Therefore, Nathan Hawke moved all personnel from Stark Industries' weapons research and development department to Umbrella Corporation to ensure they would not openly participate in the "Superheroes Project" prepared by Hawk Group, thereby avoiding putting themselves in danger.

And Nathan Hawke now also intends to make the same plans as Stark Industries.

Obadiah Stane knows how to conduct himself, he will give up some "soup," and he also intends to learn from Obadiah Stane's ways and give up some profits.

The profits of the "Superheroes Project."

Nathan Hawke was clear about his position as a well-known behind-the-scenes big shot; influence is not something that can be gained by one person alone.

When he discovered that Wesker's establishment of Umbrella Corporation increased his influence, he abandoned some plans and redrafted a "Superheroes Project."

"I've had people collect the data; take a look."

Nathan Hawke clapped his hands, and a group of people pushed the door open, placed the documents in front of each shareholder, and then quietly retreated.

The shareholders then began to pick up the documents and read them.

Nathan Hawke continued, "I don't know if you've looked into it, or what kind of minds you have to come up with such an idea."

"Using the group's shares and funds to do such a thing."

"Does anyone among you want to transition?"

As soon as his words fell.

Instantly.

The shareholders put down their documents and all looked at Rick Heim, who was beside Nathan Hawke.

"But, our combined shares..." Rick Heim said tentatively.

"A bunch of fools."

As soon as Rick Heim's words fell, Nathan Hawke's heart was filled with wild joy.

He finally understood that Obadiah Stane of Stark Industries had made his move; Obadiah Stane wanted to draw these shareholders into his grand scheme of empty promises.

Clearly, Obadiah Stane had promised these people many benefits.

Although these people were outsiders and didn't know much about weapons companies, they had money and connections, and importantly, they were not competing companies of an opposing weapons enterprise.

These advantages, for Obadiah Stane, were solid allies.

At the same time, because Stark had gone missing, it gave this group of people hope of earning more money.

After all, Obadiah Stane was still there, and the Military's connections were still intact.

The arms business made far more money than consumer goods.

It was normal for them to look down on it.

"Alright then, if you're interested, you can proceed with a share verification.

Once verified, you can do whatever you want."

Nathan Hawke's words instantly brought joy to the faces of some shareholders present.

While some shareholders were completely bewildered.

Nathan Hawke saw it all, and it was even better this way.

Stupid shareholders, on the contrary, would not hinder the implementation of his plan; they just needed to count their money and be done with it.

A delighted Nathan Hawke feigned a gloomy expression.

But his heart was already ecstatic.

A bunch of Jokers.

Seeing their smiling faces, Nathan Hawke was truly happy.

You're good, I'm good, everyone's good.

Three-way profit.

Although the departure of shareholders would cause Hawk Group's stock to fall, it didn't matter.

Looking at the remaining few shareholders.

"What about you? Do you have any thoughts of selling your shares?" Nathan Hawke was direct, causing the remaining shareholders to shake their heads.

No matter what, Hawk Group was still a profitable company.

Unless there was a better alternative, only a fool would sell.

After the meeting, Nathan Hawke was to head to Umbrella Corporation.

Umbrella Corporation was a notorious entity, even in the Marvel World.

Privately, with Nathan Hawke's funding and Wesker's brute force, after killing many people, the company was successfully established.

But this was unavoidable, because although Wesker's mind possessed advanced technology, he lacked the necessary talent and equipment.

At the same time, they didn't have many channels to acquire overly cutting-edge technology.

They had to rely on killing and plundering to raise funds and obtain certain hard-to-get advanced equipment.

Despite this, Nathan Hawke was still very satisfied with Wesker's performance.

After all, he was a very capable villain, and also had a high-class demeanor.

One could tell by looking at the frightened Andre beside him.

He had been taught a harsh lesson.

"Here, these are the acquisition documents, and the status of the virus experiments."

The acquisition refers to recruiting the employees who were about to become unemployed from Stark Industries' weapons research and development department.

The virus refers to the analysis of the Uroboros virus from Wesker's body.

The Uroboros virus.

It was developed by combining the t-virus, g-virus, and the Las Plagas parasite from Resident Evil 4, and named the Uroboros virus, which was described as "the ultimate evolution for humanity."

Its viral characteristic lies in strict genetic screening; if the genes do not match, the infected individual will transform into a giant tentacled monster.

The original intention of the virus's development was to eliminate people with inferior genes.

But this virus was too overbearing.

Research into reversing, differentiating, and reprogramming the Uroboros virus back into the t-virus, g-virus, and Las Plagas parasite was very difficult.

But these things could be taken slowly.

As long as Andre appeared as the Superhero Super Kid, causing an unprecedented surge in influence, and then a new villain was summoned.

Then, a Superheroes team, featuring a trio of heroes, could be tentatively launched as a selling point.

Andre's, The Invisible Man's characters and Superhero images had all been designed.

He picked up a document introducing The Invisible Man, and the upcoming positive energy movie "The Invisible Man."

(The Invisible Man is a Superhero who possesses the ability of invisibility, allowing him to conceal his physical form and voice.

He is a very mysterious figure because he always remains invisible, making it difficult to see his true face.

The Invisible Man's ability was acquired in an accident.

He was originally an ordinary person, but during a scientific experiment, he accidentally came into contact with a mysterious substance that granted him the power of invisibility.

He quickly realized the immense potential of this ability and decided to use it to protect the World.

The Invisible Man is a very special existence in the Superhero World.

His invisibility allows him to approach enemies undetected and unleash tremendous attack power at the most opportune moment.

He can also conduct reconnaissance without being discovered, gathering important intelligence about enemies.

The Invisible Man is not a solitary person; he forms a team with other Superheroes to protect the World from evil forces.

He also has a secret identity; his true identity is an ordinary person, and he uses his invisibility to protect his identity from being exposed.

Overall, The Invisible Man is a very powerful and mysterious Superhero.)

"Hahahaha." Nathan Hawke couldn't help but laugh when he thought of The Invisible Man's demeanor and read the content written above.

Curiosity got the better of him, leading Nathan Hawke to look at the other side, at the introduction of Andre, Super Kid.

("Super Kid" is a young hero with extraordinary abilities.

He was initially an ordinary person until he accidentally acquired Psychokinesis, an ability that allowed him to manipulate physical reality through thought.

As his mastery of Psychokinesis deepened, he began to discover that he could create incredible physical effects, such as controlling the movement of objects, altering physical reality, and so on.

He gradually realized he was a Superhero and decided to use his abilities to protect the World from the threat of evil forces.

He became a valiant Superhero; his Psychokinesis allowed him to create astonishing effects in dangerous situations, and his courage and perseverance made him fearless of any challenge.

He became an admired character, and his story inspired many to pursue their dreams and bravely face life's challenges.

Overall, "Super Kid" is a Superhero full of power and courage, and his story has inspired many to pursue their dreams and bravely face life's challenges.

He will forever be a legendary figure, an admired hero.)

"Hahahahaha~"

This time, Nathan Hawke laughed even louder.

Andre, beside him, was flushed, at a loss for what to do.

He knew his own past actions.

Seeing Nathan Hawke's expression, he also understood that his boss knew about his past.

He became even more ashamed.

"By the way, The Invisible Man?"

Nathan Hawke asked after he finished laughing.

"Uh, in a fierce clash." Andre scratched his head and said sheepishly.
