"Sir!" x2
The two T-X Terminators bowed slightly, speaking respectfully. They belonged to Chen Xi, and therefore obeyed him.
"Good. From now on, don't call me Sir, call me Boss. And from now on, you are to be known as Bo Da and Bo Er."
"Understood, Boss."
Bo Da and Bo Er replied respectfully.
"Although the current technology is from the Marvel world, most of Earth's network infrastructure is far inferior to the future. So, you will directly infiltrate the official surveillance systems throughout New York. When you encounter criminals, you can make your own judgment and take action, no need to report back."
"Understood, Boss."
Bo Da and Bo Er nodded without hesitation. They already possessed considerable intelligence. To say nothing of other things, their level of intelligence alone surpassed the current Jarvis.
Letting the Terminators handle these petty criminals was perfect. Chen Xi was relieved; this kind of boring work really wasn't for him.
Selfless dedication was Old Parker's thing; Chen Xi was all about profit.
Time flew by, and a few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Over these few days, the crime rate in New York plummeted, and there were signs of peace and prosperity. It was just a pity for those criminals, some losing limbs, others meeting their maker...
Chen Xi hadn't been to the workshop much lately. He spent his days sunbathing, occasionally turning over to avoid getting burnt.
Wanda, on the other hand, was a busy bee, always at the workshop handling various trivial matters, dealing with all sorts of invitations and copyright issues...
"Bo Da, you were supposed to be monitoring Old Parker's movements. Did they go to that exhibition?"
Chen Xi asked, eyes lazily closed. Due to the chaotic timeline of Marvel, he could only disregard his preconceived notions.
Especially regarding Spider-Man's timeline, you can just ignore it. They've been changing the settings for a while now.
"Boss, he's already headed to the Research Institute. Bo Er is secretly monitoring him and will report any anomalies to you."
Chen Xi stood up with a whoosh.
"There's no time." He said, and then quickly left, much to Bo Da's confusion.
Regardless of Spider-Man's origin story, he only cared about the spider that bit Old Parker; that was the real treasure.
Old Parker was showing off his tricks in the Research Institute when a spider bit him while he wasn't paying attention.
Feeling the bite, Old Parker instinctively swatted at the spider, but missed. He didn't manage to kill it.
"Why do you like someone but can't confess your feelings out loud?"
Suddenly, a figure appeared beside Parker. It was naturally Chen Xi, who had already caught the radioactive spider.
"I… I… I…"
Parker, caught off guard by Chen Xi's sudden appearance, started stammering. In front of his goddess, Mary Jane, he was always timid and afraid to approach, even less courageous than a simp.
Chen Xi glanced at Mary Jane; she did have a certain charm.
However, in his eyes, she was completely unremarkable, the kind you could easily lose in a crowd.
"I know a man's confidence comes from how much money he has in his pocket, so I'm going to give you a chance. If you want to make money, call me." Chen Xi said lightly, then took out his business card and handed it to him.
Parker finally recognized him, and in that instant, his legs went weak with excitement as he clutched his head and yelled, "My God…"
"Oh! My god! Oh! My god! It's you! I'm your biggest fan, oh my god, I can't believe my idol is actually right here in front of me!!"
Old Parker was so excited he was practically stomping around, his eyes shining with adoration. His idol was talking to him; all those so-called goddesses could take a hike!
"Calm down, calm down, Parker, you're making me very uncomfortable. I'm not interested in men."
Chen Xi shrugged helplessly. It was so annoying; wherever he went, there were always fanboys like Old Parker.
"God!! You know, every one of your masterpieces has me completely enthralled, especially Lord of the Rings. I can't even imagine that level of imagination is humanly possible!"
Old Parker continued to ramble excitedly, showing no signs of slowing down, his face flushed with enthusiasm…
And Chen Xi finally got to witness the power of a Marvel-level motormouth!
This guy's excited shouting also drew the attention of others. When they saw Chen Xi's face, the entire Research Institute erupted…
There was no more interest in sightseeing. They rushed toward him like a tidal wave, instantly surrounding him while shouting and screaming with wild enthusiasm.
"Oh my god! It's Chen! The god from the East!"
"Oh my god! I can actually see the greatest screenwriter of all time! Dad! Mom! Your son has made it!"
"My god! Can I take a picture with you?"
"Oh my god! Oh my god! It's really him! Hey, don't push! Fuck!!"
The scene almost instantly got out of control, nearly turning into a brawl. They surged forward in a rush, and some even lost their shoes.
They were all shouting and pushing, just wanting to say a word to their idol, whom they worshipped and admired, not even daring to ask for a photo...
"Haha, everyone, don't get too excited, listen to me. If you keep pushing, there might be a stampede. So listen, we can all take a group photo together."
Chen Xi shouted at them to calm down. Luckily, they were in the sparsely populated Research Institute, or something would have really gone wrong! These people were simply too crazy.
It had to be said, the power of an idol was something else. After hearing Chen Xi's voice, everyone quieted down and waited to line up for photos.
Under the excited staff's arrangements, everyone lined up in several rows in the spacious area, allowing Chen Xi to stand in the middle for photos.
Many people holding photos were so excited they cried, and some even decided not to wash their hands for a month! All because they had shaken hands with their ultimate idol...
If only I could be as popular as him one day, then Mary Jane would finally look at me differently, wouldn't she?
Parker, standing in the corner, watched Chen Xi, who was surrounded, and muttered to himself enviously.
"Hey, Parker, don't forget to call me, okay?"
At this moment, Chen Xi finally broke free from the fans and shouted at the little nobody, Parker.
What the hell! He actually has his idol's phone number?
Fuck!! Fuck! Why him!!
Almost instantly, everyone stared at Parker with envy, jealousy, and hatred, wanting to snatch it from him right away!
Even Mary Jane, who usually ignored him, instantly flirted with him, and his good buddy Harry was even more disbelieving!
In that instant, Old Parker felt like he had reached the pinnacle of his life...
