A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

"Get out of here!" Cao Gui kicked him in the butt, shooing him out. "You're not Black Widow, you're not welcome in my basement!"

Scott stumbled and scrambled away from Cao Guijia, his retreating figure appearing somewhat panicked and disoriented.

Watching Scott's departing figure, Cao Gui stroked his chin. The Pym Particles weren't very useful to him. Cao Gui wasn't a scientist and couldn't use the Pym Particles to travel through time and space. Besides, the Pym Particles didn't travel through time and space, but rather to another world.

Cao Gui simply didn't want to kill Scott, but he also didn't want him to leave so easily, so he squeezed out the remaining value from him.

"Tsk... My good mood is ruined..." Cao Gui muttered unhappily, raised his hand and waved, opening a spatial door and walking in. He was going to find Beth; he hadn't seen her in a long time and missed her terribly.

……

Marbury.

One of the top residences in Los Angeles, on par with Beverly Hills, this is where Toni Stark lived before she went to New York.

Of course, he was still very thin back then... oh no, back then, he was a man nearing forty who had just started working at Microsoft.

Now, she has been transformed into a blonde, wavy beauty, and countless men are captivated by her, all succumbing to her tall, slender figure of 1.74 meters.

Ahem, getting back to the main point, as a wealthy person, Beth certainly wouldn't treat herself poorly. She also bought a villa near Marbury as her base in Los Angeles. She only told Cao Gui about this, and even her friend Whitney didn't know.

Of course, Beth didn't want her to know that after the trip to Slovakia, Beth had seen through Whitney's treacherous nature and had been avoiding contact with her as much as possible.

Tonight, after finishing her day's work, Beth returned to her villa, took off her office uniform, and changed into a black, tight-fitting yoga outfit.

This is a new hobby Beth has cultivated. Although she is an art student and enjoys painting, she still needs some exercise. She doesn't want to go to the gym, nor does she want to buy one, so Beth has chosen yoga, a form of exercise suitable for women.

"Well……"

Beth gently stretched her body, performing some warm-up exercises before starting yoga. Then, she raised her toes, straightened her legs, and gently slid them downwards, achieving a perfect split.

This split is very smooth, which shows that Beth has put a lot of effort into yoga.

Beth adjusted the verticality of her spine and slowly leaned forward and pressed down.

Since it was her own home, Beth only changed her pants to make things easier, without changing her top. If it weren't for the yoga mat being too sticky against her skin, she wouldn't have even wanted to change her yoga pants.

Thinking this, Beth's nose had already touched her knee. She slowly straightened up, then pressed her upper body down, her ponytail swaying gently as it pressed against her other thigh.

However, at that moment, his eyes caught sight of a smiling man behind him, and what's more, he was a stinky man!

"Hmph, I thought you'd forgotten about me," Beth said irritably, remaining in that position.

Cao Gui chuckled and walked to her side: "Darling, I know I was wrong, don't be angry, I'm here to keep you company."

"Hmph..." Beth snorted coldly.

……

Three hours later, Beth lay exhausted on the bed. Yoga was just too tiring. Even someone like her who had been practicing for a long time couldn't handle such high-intensity exercise.

“I saw it on TV…” Beth lay in Cao Gui’s arms, her eyebrows curved, her fingertips gently gliding over her stubble, her eyes sparkling.

"Hmm?" Cao Gui didn't understand. He was still in a transcendent state of being free from desires and wants. Yoga and such were indeed profound and extensive exercises.

"The great hero who saved the world..." Beth bit her red lips, tilted her head back, and looked intently at Cao Gui.

"Haha." Cao Gui chuckled, stroking her smooth, short black hair. It felt pretty good to be admired by his girlfriend.

However... there's not much to talk about regarding the Battle of New York. He completely dominated the entire battle, only unleashing his ultimate moves. The only part worth mentioning is the battle between Loki and Thor.

However, since these two people were involved in Asgard, Cao Gui was afraid that Beth wouldn't be able to accept it, so he didn't mention it.

"Has there been any progress in our company recently?" Cao Gui asked.

"Hmm... there is some," Beth said. Cao Gui's question was definitely not about how much money they had made. In reality, after those tens of billions of dollars in gold were deposited, money had become just a number to them.

"Dr. Zhao Hailun's nanorobots have already begun to be applied in the medical field."

"Oh?" Cao Gui raised an eyebrow.

“Well, according to her report, it can be used to repair damaged body tissue, or rather, replace…” Beth pondered for a moment, then recalled and said.

"Not bad." Cao Gui nodded. Perhaps Gwen could take a look; maybe she could come up with something like a nanotech armor.

“There’s one more thing…” Beth frowned slightly and said, “A few days ago, a man named Aldridge Killian came to our door seeking investment.”

“Killian…?” Cao Gui stroked his chin, the name sounding familiar.

“Yes.” Beth nodded and continued:

"He brought a 'ultimate transformation' project, claiming it could develop the human brain and give human limbs the ability to regenerate."

"Oh, it's him..." Cao Gui suddenly realized. He remembered that the scientist was a genius with a bad leg. He was a fan of Tony Stark, but unfortunately, Tony Stark was arrogant and dissolute at that time and had no interest in such a mediocre scientist.

Especially with beautiful women around, Killian was completely ignored, and even spent the entire New Year's Eve in the cold wind.

But things are different now. The Extremis virus not only cured his physical defects, but also brought him money and glory. Killian has transformed into a rich, handsome, and successful scientist.

And Tony became Tony...

and many more!

Cao Gui's brows suddenly furrowed. He remembered how unruly Killian was when introducing the project to Pepper, unlike how he would introduce it to Beth...

---Aside---

Now that it's out, cough cough, I can't drive recklessly anymore, it's easy to crash (ノへ￣、)

Chapter 372 Beth's Friends

"Did he show you his brain?" Cao Gui asked quietly, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Show...the brain?" Beth was completely confused. This thing could be shown?

"Oh, it's nothing." Cao Gui patted her head and smiled, suppressing his murderous intent towards Killian. As long as he doesn't mess with me, it's none of my business how he seeks revenge on Toni.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. The reason he did that was because he had a good relationship with Pepper and they knew each other. He didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Beth.

"Go to sleep," Cao Gui said with a smile.

"Huh? Oh..." Beth shook her neck, her slender hand stroking Cao Gui's chest, and sighed, "I don't know why, but I suddenly can't sleep..."

Cao Gui: "..."

With a yank of the blanket, Cao Gui pounced on her!

"Hahaha..." Beth's giggles echoed from the room, sounding very happy.

……

In the distance of Malibu Beach, in a luxurious villa perched on a cliff, Toni, dressed in an indigo tight-fitting office lady dress, stands with a blond man.

A halo surrounded them, making them look like a vast nebula in the universe.

"Your brain?" Tony pursed her red lips, her full lips curving into a perfect arc.

“Yes, that’s right.” The blond handsome man smiled, tapped the remote control in his hand, and controlled the brain to magnify, creating a place that resembled a black hole.

Toni is a genius scientist, that much is undeniable, and even if she were to become a woman, that fact would not change.

“This is what I wanted to show you, Toni,” Killian said, pointing to the black hole-like area. “Our AIM’s ultimate transformation plan is to develop this place.”

“We are developing the potential of bioelectricity and bringing it here. Through our research, the human brain, once developed, will gain unimaginable power.”

"For example, limb regeneration, superhuman strength, and... Tony, what do you think?"

“It looks pretty good.” Toni rested her chin on her hand, her fingers lightly brushing aside a stray strand of hair from her temple, but then her brow furrowed:

"But this thing... I feel like I've heard of it somewhere before..."

Killian's smile remained unchanged, seemingly unconcerned that Toni had forgotten him on the building's rooftop: "Yes, I told you about that before."

“Oh?” Tony raised an eyebrow, pondering the matter, but unfortunately, Killian at the time was not a blonde beauty with long, wavy hair. The twenty-five-year-old Tony had no interest in him and no memory of him.

"1999, Bern, Switzerland, Congress of Scientists," Killian said with a smile, stating the time and place.

“Oh, it was around that time.” Toni suddenly realized. She still couldn’t recall anything about Killian, but she did remember a bald old man in the cave, Yinsen.

He saved himself in a cave in the Imperial Cemetery, back when he was still... a man!

"Are you busy later?" Tony asked with a smile. "Would it be alright if we had lunch together?"

On a whim, Toni suddenly wanted to talk to Killian, and if they could talk about Einson, that would be nice too.

Killian's eyes lit up. Goddess... God... well, it's all the same with the lights off.

“It is my pleasure, Miss Stark.” Killian placed his right hand on his chest and gave a medieval knightly salute.

……

In Marbury's other villa, Cao Gui lay on the sofa like a salted fish, idly flipping through TV channels.

"Haha, America..." On the television, a man with hair growing on his chin, a wrinkled face, and wearing sunglasses sneered. As the screen flickered, a group of black-and-white photos of Native Americans appeared.

"In 1864, in the Sand Creek region of Colorado, you took advantage of the fact that the honest Cheyenne warriors were out hunting to massacre the elderly, women, and children left behind and seize their land; tsk... what a despicable means this is."

“Thirty-nine hours ago, your Ali al-Salem Air Base was attacked… Heh heh, I did it, while your soldiers were out on exercises… Your warriors weren’t home…”

"..."

Cao Gui watched the video with droopy eyelids, bored. The Mandarin from the Central Asian theater had created a lot of panic in the United States. This Mandarin was modeled after that Wenwu. If he remembered correctly, he also had a son named Sanqi. Find out the truth and kill him...

Cao Gui stroked his chin, but then again, this Mandarin is definitely fake.

If I remember correctly, this person is a British actor, and the real boss behind him is actually Killian. What he wants to do is hide behind the scenes and control the highest power in this country...

"Idiot..." Cao Gui curled his lips. The highest power in this country is actually on Wall Street. So many American blockbusters dare to joke about the White House and the Pentagon, but how many films dare to joke about Wall Street?

Those old men can shake the whole country with a stomp of their feet. Just look at Nick Fury, who went from being the director of a strategic weapon like a space carrier to a rat that everyone hates.

So either Killian is too stupid to understand, or... American blockbusters are deliberately misleading people again. Cao Gui is more inclined to believe the latter.

Just then, Beth came downstairs wearing a white women's suit.

Cao Gui was stunned for a moment, then felt hot all over, and chuckled strangely, "Darling, isn't this a bit inappropriate? It's only eleven o'clock in the morning..."

"I knew you were being indecent." Beth tapped Cao Gui's forehead with her slender finger and said irritably, "A friend of mine is coming over. Hurry up and change your clothes and be serious."

"Huh?" Cao Gui exclaimed in surprise. So that's how it is. He nodded and turned to go upstairs to change his clothes.

Beth smiled slightly and sat quietly on the sofa, waiting. The reason she changed her clothes before telling Cao Gui was because this lecherous man was indecent; if she changed clothes with him...

Thinking of this, Beth blushed slightly. She knew without even thinking how the situation would unfold... no, the plot.
