Chapter 12: Pepper Calls
Natasha Romanoff is gone after all.
Xia Yu is reluctant but knows there is nothing he can do.
He can only pray that time will pass quickly, so that Captain America: The Winter Soldier can begin soon, SHIELD will disband soon, and the Avengers alliance will become independent.
Then they can be together every day.
But there are still seven years, seven years.
Now the Iron Man plot has not started yet.
Xia Yu is melancholy, missing her, and the days are like years.
He pulls his hair strand by strand, fearing that his hairstyle will become Nick Fury's sooner or later.
Natasha Romanoff didn't come back for more than two months.
She did call from time to time, but the calls were not very long.
Xia Yu knew she was on a mission, but there was nothing she could do.
Nick Fury also didn't come once.
Maybe SHIELD had some big operation.
Pepper came twice.
She had agreed to come every week because she used to come to New York every week to handle work, but now she only comes once a month because Tony Stark's headquarters and home are in Los Angeles, which is located on the east and west coast of the United States with New York.
Although she had only come twice, as Xia Yu's Nine Yang Magical Skill internal strength became stronger, acupuncture indirectly helped her cure many minor ailments with her internal strength, and her skin became better and better.
She smiled more and more passionately every time she came.
It was probably because Tony Stark, the playboy, looked at her more and more ambiguously. "You two bastards!"
Xia Yu couldn't eat the grapes, so she had to curse secretly.
"The mission has been completed, 5,000 points rewarded, and the system will draw a prize." Tmall's voice sounded again. Xia Yu skillfully completed the prize drawing without any suspense.
"Congratulations, master, for obtaining the Dugu Nine Swords." Xia Yu was not surprised at all. He felt that the system was following him step by step according to his needs.
"Tmall, I feel like they only give me things based on my needs, so there's no point in having a mall like that," Xia Yu complained.
"That's right, master.
In the early stage, I will make reasonable use of the lottery rewards and points to provide you with some necessary things and skills, such as weapons, physical fitness, internal strength, etc.
These are the most optimized choices.
In the later stage, please choose the skills you need according to your own combat habits and methods.
The system will change."
Tmall said.
Xia Yu nodded to show his understanding. It was just like the novice period when playing a game. Only after becoming familiar with the profession can one develop his own characteristics. Thinking of this, he quickly loaded the Dugu Nine Swords and began to check his current status.
Nine Yang Divine Art: This is a very comprehensive internal energy technique that increases attack, defense, and agility, restores health and mana, and also provides a protective shield. It feels like a super cool passive skill.
Lingbo Weibu: The original book says that after mastering the Nine Yang Magic Art, the lightness skill of the body surpasses all the lightness skills in the world, but I feel that Lingbo Weibu is not in this list, because the concept of lightness skill is to jump high, jump far, and fall slowly.
As the name suggests, lightness skill is the skill of making the body lighter.
Xia Yu understands it as using internal force to fight against the gravity of the earth, but the internal force of the Nine Yang Magic Art is more useful.
Lingbo Weibu is a step used to avoid attacks and accelerate in a straight line.
Dugu Nine Swords: This is also a kind of Kung Fu where no moves are better than moves.
The scientific explanation is the fighting technique with swords, which is a collection of various sword skills.
It is actually a very modern martial arts theory, but it has more variations when used with internal force.
Yi Jin Jing: This is the foundation, which enhances the body's adaptability to the martial arts system.

Life and Death Talisman: It is obviously used for transition between tasks. It cannot control the characters in the plot and can only be used as a long-range hidden weapon at present.
"Tmall, considering my current situation and points, see if there is anything suitable for me?" Xia Yu said, looking at the 25,455 points on her (the reward for completing the task + the points increased during the task, and the points for helping others with treatment).
"Okay master, considering your current situation, I suggest you choose the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra." Tianmao said as he popped up the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra interface for Xia Yu.
Dragon-Elephant Prajna Kung (System Enhanced Version): It is the supreme Dharma-protecting Kungfu in Tibetan Tantric Buddhism.
It is divided into 13 levels.
Its external palm power is fierce and fierce.
Each level of Dragon-Elephant Prajna Kung will increase the power of one dragon and one elephant.
After practicing 13 levels, the pure flesh body has the power of 13 dragons and 13 elephants.
The dragon and elephant have the power of a thousand pounds respectively.
Price: 104,000 points.
"So each layer adds one ton of force.
Oh my god, after practicing this, I will have thirteen tons of force."
Xia Yu exclaimed, but think about it, little Spider-Man can easily intercept a speeding bus when he just debuted, and Iron Man Mark III can throw cars for fun.
This amount of force is nothing.
"Wait a minute, how can I learn these 100,000+ points from Tmall? It's far from enough. Can I pay in installments?" Xia Yu just saw the zero after the points.
"It does not support installment payments, but it can be purchased in layers. The owner can buy the first three layers first, and then buy the rest when the points are enough."
"Come on then." Xia Yu clicked without hesitation, and sure enough, there was an option to purchase in stages. To purchase Dragon Elephant Prajnaparamita Merit Level 1-3, the points would be -24,000, and the points that had just been obtained were instantly reduced to 1,455.
Xia Yu confirmed the loading and his hands were quick, but he forgot that this was an external skill that required the transformation of the body.
He once again experienced the pain that penetrated deep into his soul.
Every muscle and bone in his body was constantly torn and reorganized countless times.
After 20 minutes, Xia Yu was lying on the ground like a dead dog again, and the ground was also a mess like last time.
And Tmall kindly reminded again: "Master, I suggest you go wash yourself first, although I don't..."
"Get out!!!!"
Xia Yu once again lay on the bed and lit a cigarette for aftermath, but this time the aftermath refers to after practicing the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra.
Xia Yu began to recall all the Marvel movies in his mind, one after another, and he had to connect the plots, to enhance his strength without changing the plots to the greatest extent, and to smoothly transition to the time of snapping his fingers, but he had to ensure that he did not disappear after snapping his fingers, because he needed to ensure that Natasha Romanoff survived.
As for what would happen next, since he didn't know, he wouldn't think too much about it, just strengthen his strength and do it.

It is November 2007 now.
Tony Stark was kidnapped in Afghanistan in 2008.
The exact month is not clear, but the movie was released in May.
I believe it is not much different.
Tony Stark stayed in the cave for three months.
He must have participated in the battle with Iron Monger Obadiah Stane.
Otherwise, how about finding a way to sneak into SHIELD first? The figure of Black Widow appeared in front of Xia Yu again.
Before the Avengers alliance begins, there seems to be nothing to touch.
It is better not to touch the Hulk, because I really can't afford to hurt him now.
Thor is also very difficult, and Asgard is too complicated.
For someone like me who has an unknown origin, I must stay away from Odin and Ancient One in the early stage.
They are definitely two gods who are not inferior to or even surpass Thanos.
At least Thanos is definitely not a match for those two without Infinite Gems.
In the early stage, I seem to have no other choice except SHIELD and Tony Stark.
Nokia's classic incoming call ringtone interrupted Xia Yu's reverie. She picked up the phone and was delighted. Just as she had imagined, it was a call from Xiao La Jiao.
"Hello, Miss Potts, if I'm not mistaken, it should be midnight now. I am not accepting any appointments now." Xia Yu pretended to be surprised.
"Oh, Xia, I'm sorry to bother you so late. I need your help. Can you come to Los Angeles?" said Pepper.
"What's wrong, Miss Potts, are you sick? You don't sound like it. Why do you want to go to Los Angeles? You know, I never provide door-to-door service." Xia Yu said calmly.
"No, I'm fine, thank you for your concern.
It's my boss.
You know I recently had treatment at your place and the effect was very good, so my boss hopes that you can be his health doctor.
That's what I mean.
If possible, I need you to come to Los Angeles.
My boss needs an interview.
Um... yes, I hope you don't mind.
My boss's identity is a little special.
Yes, an interview is needed."
Little Pepper said cautiously.
Xia Yu almost covered her mouth and laughed out loud.
She just wanted to go wherever she wanted.
Tony Stark had already been sent to her side.
However, she still pretended to be angry on the phone and said, "Ms.
Potts, I am not a person who is isolated from the world.
I also watch TV and read newspapers.
I know who your boss is, but I have no interest in becoming anyone's personal doctor, and I strongly refuse the interview because I don't really need this job, even if the other party is the president."
After that, Xia Yu hung up the phone.
Xia Yu is betting that Tony Stark is a very proud person, and that doing things for him for money does not make you his friend.
He needs to maintain a good relationship with the characters in the plot, rather than an employment relationship.
And when dealing with someone like Tony Stark, especially the current Tony Stark, a hard slap in the face may be more likely to deepen his impression.
