Marvel: Starting with the forced creation of villainous characters

"I saw it, but what does that have to do with us?" Mark retorted.

"Forehead……"

Skye, who had been excited, was speechless.

The playboy's disappearance really had nothing to do with them.

No, wait! There really is a connection!

"Of course it's related! I bought Stark Industries stock, and now the stock has plummeted. In just a few minutes, my wealth has evaporated by nearly $3," Skye said, grabbing her hair in despair.

Mark raised an eyebrow, looking at Skye with some surprise. He hadn't realized that this woman was actually quite wealthy.

Mark remarked, "You're really unlucky."

Skye also said thankfully, "Luckily I left in time. Stark Industries' stock is still falling, otherwise I would have been really stuck."

"Speaking of which, you're a hacker, you should be able to hack into the back-end systems of quite a few companies, right? Why don't you use that to trade stocks?" Mark asked, puzzled.

Skye replied seriously, "Because it's illegal."

mark:"???"

Mark looked at the other person with a "you're kidding me" expression.

Mark thought the world was absurd. How could a hacker who spends all day hacking into government systems actually be law-abiding?

"Think about it carefully, how is your current behavior any different from what I'm saying? It's all illegal anyway, so why not use it to your own advantage?" Mark retorted.

This is also a major reason why he can't understand how Marvel's timeline works. In a world with superhuman powers, power can obviously breed authority, but many people with superhuman powers live worse lives than ordinary people.

Take Skye, for example. If she wanted to, with her hacking skills, she could easily afford a mansion and a villa, but she's still crammed into that beat-up campervan.

We should learn from Big Daddy in this respect.

He may be mentally unstable, but he knows how to use his power. Every time he cracks down on criminals, he also takes the opportunity to rob the safe of a gang leader.

Under this advanced education, even though Big Daddy is dead, Mindy is still able to earn money with her skills and live a good life.

In Kick-Ass 2, the fact that Mindy was able to get her hands on that luxurious gear and motorcycle after Big Daddy's death is enough to show that she was living a pretty good life.

Another stark contrast is Jessica Jones.

In the story, this woman is already considered a little superwoman, but she still lives a life of poverty and destitution, relying on alcohol to numb herself every day.

If he had the power of Jessica Jones right now, not only Hell's Kitchen, but maybe even New York would belong to the Ma family.

Mark asked again, "By the way, have you prepared the documents I requested?"

"I'll send it to your email in a bit. I've decided to take your advice and try to get some money back for my 'secret stash'." Skye said, then hurriedly grabbed her laptop and ran out.

Watching the other person's retreating figure as he jogged away, Mark nodded in satisfaction: "A promising young man."

Making money isn't shameful if you use some tricks.

Wall Street was unusually lively today, with dumplings falling non-stop on the rooftop.

Many middle-class and even elite people go bankrupt in an instant, for example, when the stock market crashes.

In the storyline, Tony Stark's capriciousness actually caused a lot of harm to stock market investors; those who still have the energy to rant online are considered relatively better off.

Those who truly suffer a terrible fate are usually turned into dumplings on the rooftop that very night.

Skye, having opened up a new world, busied herself in her RV, breaking into the back offices of one listed company after another, searching for opportunities to get rich.

Skye was also clever; she only picked on the easy targets and gave up on those who resisted.

After all, there are countless publicly listed companies in the world, and she has no need to waste her time on a few individual companies.

After some screening, Sky finally selected a few good companies and then chose to buy them.

After doing all this, Skye felt much more relaxed and sent the information she had collected the night before to Mark.

"Ah~" Skye yawned wearily and muttered to herself, "I'll go back to sleep. I won't go back for lunch."

After receiving the email from Skye, Mark carefully reviewed it.

Ultimately, Mark successfully identified a target that was perfect for making white gloves.

Hammerhead—Joseph.

Hammerhead's real name is Joseph Harlow, the leader of the "Hammerhead Family" under the Maggie Gang.

The Maggie Gang is similar to the Mafia in the Marvel universe. It is a transnational criminal organization composed of multiple underworld families, similar to a mafia version of Hydra. Although the three families are united, they actually operate independently.

The Maggie Gang is not much weaker than the Hand.

In the Marvel Universe, almost every evil force has received an epic boost, with the Maggie Gang being a prime example.

Unlike ordinary gangs, the Maggie Gang is a superpower that wields extraordinary abilities.

First, Joseph's combat skills are not high; his offensive and defensive abilities all rely on his "iron head technique." Second, Joseph has great ambition, and his villainous aura can influence him.

Not very strong, and can be affected by the villain's aura, he's a qualified white glove.

Joseph is already middle-aged, almost 50 years old, but he is still young at heart. Despite his age, he is still ambitious and tries to completely control the Maggie gang so that he can compete with Kingpin for the position of King of the Underworld.

With a goal in mind and the imminent arrival of the extraordinary era, Mark chose to take immediate action.

After summoning Jessica Jones and Mindy, Mark showed them the Hammerhead family's information.

"Mindy, I already know what you guys are up to every night." Mark first made it clear that he already knew about their criminal activities.

Mindy, oblivious to being caught, asked curiously, "What? You're not trying to stop me, are you?"

Mark quickly shook his head.

"What I mean is, it's useless to just crack down on criminals like this. We need to crack down on criminals in a rhythmic and targeted manner," Mark said, pointing to the data on the computer screen.

"This guy's nickname is Hammerhead. He's an extremely evil supervillain who controls nearly a third of Hell's Kitchen's leaf business. He also forces women into prostitution and often kills for his own amusement."

Mindy nodded seriously. When she heard Hammerhead's nickname, she knew he was definitely a very evil villain.

Bald Head and Hammerhead—these two villains have similar names, which sound wicked.

"So, our target tonight is him?" Mindy asked eagerly.

Mark nodded: "I've already asked Skye to find this villain's headquarters, and we'll take it down tonight."

Mindy nodded confidently and said, "No problem, leave this to me and Jessica."

Seeing that Mindy wasn't going to take him along, Mark quickly said, "Wait, I mean, I want to come along too."

"Wouldn't that be a bad idea? This operation is very important and dangerous. If we bring you along, we won't be able to act freely," Mindy politely declined.

Mindy practically said she didn't want to drag you along as a burden.
