After understanding all the abilities he'd gained from his possession, Meng Ran opened his eyes.
Seeing him open his eyes, Gwen and the others gathered around to ask about the situation.
"Now that these people are dealt with, we need to find something like a computer at the bottom of the ruins. That way, Little White can tear a hole and enter the networks of Black Water and the monsters," Meng Ran said to them.
Everyone nodded and then dispersed to search.
Before long, they found a computer at the bottom of the ruins that hadn't been destroyed and was basically intact.
After getting the computer, Meng Ran took out a USB Drive and plugged it in. Then, Little White took over the computer through the USB Drive.
"That's all it takes. Little White and I will crack the defenses as quickly as possible and then enter Black Water's network," Mary Jane's voice came from the earpiece.
After finishing these things, the Hexagram Alliance members took the other ability users, along with the cocoons containing Seko and Will, onto the plane.
Leaving Seko and Will behind was to extract some information from them.
The remaining possessed individuals were left to experiment on how to sever the chips in their brains.
Meng Ran had been troubled by these chips for a long time. Because of their existence, he couldn't completely extract the memories of Black Water and the monsters.
If he could successfully research a method to sever the chips in their brains, even if Will and Seko didn't speak, he would still know about the situation with Black Water and the monsters, and in even greater detail.
After less than an hour of flight, they returned to the Hexagram Alliance's base.
Including the round trip flight time, their operation against Black Water took less than two and a half hours in total.
After returning to the base, Meng Ran first expanded the base's prison. After all, so many new people had suddenly appeared, they had to be properly accommodated.
After the arrangements were made, everyone could finally relax for a while.
Let Little White handle the decryption; it'll likely take a while at the current pace.
According to Little White, the information defense system of Black Water and the monster company seems to have another artificial intelligence behind it, similar to Little White.
Furthermore, this AI is based on the monster company's massive servers, making its computational power even greater than Little White's.
Little White's decryption work has hit a small bottleneck, and it might take some time to move on to the next stage.
Just as everyone was chatting, an urgent news bulletin suddenly interrupted the television broadcast in the base.
"This morning, the mansion of Iron Man, Tony Stark, was attacked by terrorists."
"Iron Man, Tony Stark, is still missing!"
After seeing the news bulletin on TV, everyone in the base looked at each other in surprise.
Tony Stark has gone missing again. He disappeared once two years ago, and when he came back, he caused a huge stir.
After a few seconds of silence, Peter suddenly remembered something and said, "There's been a particularly rampant terrorist known as the Mandarin recently."
"Tony even declared war on him during a live media interview and gave out his home address."
Harry added after hearing Peter, "Who announces a challenge and gives their home address? Now, he doesn't even have a home."
Meng Ran didn't join the group chat. He just listened to the news and their discussion, searching through his memories.
This time, Tony's disappearance wasn't a big deal. In fact, it was because of this crisis that he truly became Iron Man, so Meng Ran wasn't planning to interfere.
He wasn't thinking about Tony at the moment, but rather another person who would also appear around this time.
If the plot development in his mind was correct, Thor would soon be fighting the Dark Elves over the Aether, the Reality Stone.
Their final battle was on Earth, specifically in the UK.
Meng Ran planned to find Thor and ask for a small favor.
Since the plot of Iron Man 3 had already begun, the Dark Elves' invasion in Thor: The Dark World shouldn't be too far off.
"So, are we buying more Stark Industries stock this time?" Peter asked suddenly, watching the news broadcast.
Meng Ran snapped back to attention, looking at Peter with surprise.
Seeing Meng Ran's gaze, Peter seemed puzzled. "What are you looking at? Isn't this what we usually do?"
Meng Ran smiled. "Nothing, I just didn't expect you to react so quickly this time. I hadn't even thought about it yet."
"But this happened so suddenly, and we didn't sell the stocks at the high price beforehand, so if we want to continue investing, we'll just have to buy more."
Hearing Meng Ran's words, Peter immediately said, "Then let's keep buying. I've saved up some money, and I haven't spent much of the dividends from Stark Industries yet. This time it can come in handy."
"OK, I'll go with your plan." Meng Ran readily agreed after hearing Peter's words, and then instructed Little White to handle the next steps.
Over the next few days, everyone returned to their normal lives, except they had a few more things to research.
Meng Ran, Liu Xiu, and Peter were researching how to remove the chips from Black Water's people's brains. Mary Jane and Little White were working hard to crack Black Water's information defense system, while the remaining Harry and Gwen were taking their place for daily patrols.
A few days later, one morning, Stark Industries held another press conference.
This time, Tony Stark made an appearance. He returned to the public eye once again, and aside from the scars on his face, his return was quite a surprise.
At the press conference, he briefly recounted his battle with the terrorists, and he once again stated that he would continue to work to safeguard world peace.
Finally, with the media's extensive reporting, Stark Industries' stock price once again began to skyrocket from its previous drop.
And so, Meng Ran and the others made a small profit. Of course, it was just small change, not worth mentioning.
After that, everyone returned to their daily routine of research and patrols.
Finally, after a few days, news about the Thor that Meng Ran had been eagerly anticipating arrived.
That afternoon, Little White suddenly reported to Meng Ran about Thor.
"Abnormal energy fluctuations detected in Greenwich, England!"
"Target individual, Thor, has also been located!"
Hearing Little White's report, Meng Ran immediately perked up.
"It's finally here! I've been waiting for so long!"
Meng Ran thought to himself as he quickly headed towards the hangar to prepare the plane for his flight to Greenwich.
