He spent a lot of money maintaining this identity, and he didn't want to expose it to S.H.I.E.L.D. and affect his life.

What he needs to do now is not much different from before: go to various places to eat and enjoy himself while earning evolution points.

Occasionally, when he sees a mission that interests him, he can use his identity as the Grim Reaper to take on the mission.

Now all he has to do is wait for the right opportunity.

Harvey knew that if he was going to put on an act, he had to make it convincing, so he quickly ate something to fill his stomach.

Harvey did not return to his original estate, but instead went to a villa in New York.

Harvey even stopped going out, ordering large quantities of takeout to be delivered to his villa, and obediently becoming a homebody.

Every time Harvey eats a high-calorie pizza or various steaks and pork chops, the system will notify him that he has gained tens, hundreds, or even thousands of evolution points.

So, while one million evolution points may seem like a lot, it's actually not that many.

Furthermore, when the Void Race is in various harsh environments, they will undergo rapid evolution to adapt to the environment, resulting in a crazy increase in strength.

Harvey just felt that since he could enjoy earning evolution points, why force himself to do it?

There are still nine years until the Purple Sweet Potato Spirit truly arrives, and just eating food will be enough for him to evolve many times.

Not to mention that he had long planned to go to Wakanda to absorb a large amount of vibranium when the time was right.

Although the smell of iron and steel made him nauseous, it was probably precisely because of the unpleasant taste that he felt this way.

It is a substance that can only be absorbed under extremely harsh environments, so the evolution points it provides are very significant.

During his time as a shut-in, Harvey sold off his Stark Industries stock.

Meanwhile, Harvey also keeps an eye on the Blacknet, and the bounty on Tony Stark was already claimed in just a few days.

This foreshadows the imminent arrival of Iron Man, Tony Stark, and the ensuing chaos in New York City.

This can also be considered the official start of Marvel's Phase One.

Harvey certainly wouldn't influence these causes and effects, because this is the most important event.

If Tony Stark survives and reforms, it would prove that his storyline most likely belongs to the main universe.

If Tony Stark dies, it means that his storyline is merely one of many parallel universes.

If it's the former, and he's in the main universe, when he has the opportunity to unlock the next template, he can prioritize the hero templates of Cho'Gath the Void Terror or Kassadin the Void Walker.

To acquire one of their abilities will make you stronger and better at doing things.

If it is the latter, then the world he lives in is merely one line in a parallel universe.

Harvey will then take the initiative to win over various heroes in order to quickly gain the opportunity to unlock the template and regain the Prophet's abilities.

Regardless of the universe he's in, Harvey is confident that he can survive, evolve continuously, and remain invincible.

All he needs to do now is observe the Iron Man storyline and see how it unfolds.

Harvey eats five meals a day, and each meal is enough to feed a hundred people, constantly gaining evolution points.

After eating, Harvey would begin training to further enhance his control over his own strength.

After a month of living this reclusive life, Harvey completely dispelled Nick Fury's idea.

※※※※※※※

Before we knew it, more than three months had passed.

Harvey has evolved an average of once a week under this reclusive lifestyle, and has already evolved eighteen times.

His offensive capabilities are currently sufficient, so the priority should be to improve his defensive capabilities.

Harvey added all eighteen of those evolutions to the original twenty-five evolutions of the Void Skin, enhancing it to forty-three evolutions.

His physical strength and defense have now reached an extremely terrifying level.

Harvey has been to the Pacific Ocean and conducted numerous tests. After so many evolutions, he can now penetrate to the deepest parts of the ocean with his bare body without any protection.

Furthermore, the water pressure at the bottom of the sea is a harsh environment. Frequent testing allowed Harvey's body to actively adapt to the environment and automatically evolve the ability to breathe underwater six times.

He has now evolved a total of 262 times, and all six of those evolutions were in the direction of breathing.

Evolution driven by adaptation to the environment is not something one can actively choose in which direction to evolve.

This is also why Harvey didn't want to go to different places and torture himself in order to evolve.

After all, some abilities, once evolved, are not very useful for the time being. Instead, they will lead to an increase in the number of evolutions, making the point requirements for his autonomous evolution even higher.

On this day, Harvey was eating potato chips and watching the news when suddenly the news changed.

"According to news just received by this station, Tony Stark, who has been missing for more than three months, has successfully returned to New York."

Harvey saw the news broadcasting that the missing Tony Stark had safely returned to America.

Furthermore, Stark Industries is preparing to hold a press conference.

Harvey smiled when he saw this, but he did not choose to short Stark Industries' stock.

Because he plans to buy a large amount of Stark Industries stock later, if he shorts it now and then buys it back at a lower price, it could easily attract the attention of those people on the financial street.

Harvey chose to drive to Stark Industries, intending to witness the upcoming press conference in person.

If Stark truly intends to abandon weaponry, it means this world is most likely part of the main universe.

Harvey drove the latest Maserati through the streets of New York, amidst the cacophony of gunshots and the sound of shattering glass.

Harvey remained unmoved, using his superb driving skills and keen hearing to quickly pass through.

Harvey soon arrived at the venue where Stark Industries was about to hold a press conference.

As soon as Harvey got out of the car, he attracted the attention of some people.

After all, this person is one of New York's billionaires.

“Mr. Harvey Ambellaca, I’m from Primal Technology. May I have a word with you?”

A white man in a suit and glasses saw Harvey arrive and politely stepped forward to greet him.

"I'm here to see Tony Stark."

"If you want me to invest, you should first work hard to expand your plans. I will invest when the time is right."

Harvey smiled and casually remarked upon hearing this, then walked into the venue.

"You came here specifically to see Mr. Tony Stark?"

"Mr. Harvey Ambellaca, are you friends with Tony Stark?"

"But you don't seem to have ever attended any of Tony Stark's conventions or banquets, do you?"

Some of the female reporters, upon hearing Harvey's words, took the initiative to step forward and wanted to interview him to find out the reason.

“You’re right, I’ve never met Tony Stark in a formal setting.”

"But Tony Stark, as a man who is much richer than me."

"If possible, it would be even better to get to know Tony Stark."

Harvey responded politely.

"Could this be a signal that you intend to invest in Stark Industries in the future?"

Upon hearing these words, a beautiful female journalist immediately asked a question.

Harvey Ambellaca, 21, is one of the billionaires who have emerged in the last two years.

In just over two years, Harvey Ambellaca's net worth transformed into an astonishing $3 billion, making him one of New York's miracles.

Countless people know that this is just the beginning for Harvey Ambellaca, and it is impossible to estimate how astonishing his wealth will become in the future.

If Harvey Ambellacar is interested in acquiring a stake in Stark Industries, it is possible that he will do so in the future.

"Perhaps it's possible, we can't say for sure."

"Okay, that's my answer. Please let me watch this press conference in peace, okay?"

Harvey did not give a clear answer, but gave an ambiguous reply before politely declining the reporters' request for further interviews.

You can't give too definitive a response to a reporter. Even if you want to give a definitive answer, you need to think it over carefully before you speak.

Otherwise, it's easy for these reporters to nitpick and exaggerate, leading to a series of troubles.

Although Harvey's wealth alone could cause these people to lose their jobs or even disappear.

But now he is Harvey Ambellaca, one of New York's rising tycoons in recent years, and he certainly can't do these things casually, at least not in his current capacity.

Harvey then entered the venue, where many reporters and celebrities were already waiting.

Coulson was talking to Pepper Potts, trying to find out more about Tony Stark's escape.

After all, being surrounded by the fully armed Ten Rings gang, and only suffering a minor arm injury, it was clearly not something an ordinary person could do.

Why is he here?

But Coulson was surprised to see Harvey Ambellaca there as well.

When Chili Pepper saw Coulson, who claimed to have a long, difficult-to-pronounce name, she shifted her attention elsewhere.

So Chili Pepper looked over and saw a tall, handsome Asian man in a suit.

“Harvey Ambellaca, Mr. Coulson, are you surprised by his arrival?”

Little Chili asked with some curiosity and doubt.

"Excuse me, Miss Potts, are Mr. Harvey Ambellaca and Mr. Stark friends?"

Coulson looked at Pepper Potts and asked politely.

"No, although Tony and I have both heard of his reputation, I'm sure Tony has never met him."

Upon hearing this, Little Chili shook her head almost without hesitation.

She knew Tony Stark's schedule inside and out, and she was familiar with almost everyone Tony had met, but Harvey Ambella was not among them.

Harvey Ambellaca never made any appointments or anything like that to visit Tony.

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

Coulson knew that continuing to ask questions would not yield any useful information, so he stopped and left to the side, not wanting to bother Pepper any further.

Harvey himself simply found a spot with a good view, looking at the platform located in the center a dozen meters away.
