October 30, 2010, Saturday afternoon. Russell once again walked out of Gu Yi's psychological consultation room. It had been five days since I last visited Ancient One. Five days ago, Russell agreed to Gu Yi's conditions and was responsible for handling this vampire incident. After the incident is over, the Ancient One will take action to treat all the innocent people who were infected. Russell clearly remembered that when he agreed, a sly look flashed across Gu Yi's face. That is the pleasure after free prostitution. It was very similar to how Russell assigned the investigation task to Gwen later. Returning to the bookstore, looking at Gwen who was sitting listlessly at the front desk looking after her house, Russell asked casually: "Gwen, how's the intelligence collection going?"
"We found the vampire gathering place." When it came to business, Gwen cheered up. "Many new faces appeared last night. Their number has been increasing in the past two days and is now estimated to be tens of thousands." In the past few days, whenever night falls, Gwen will go out to track the vampire's whereabouts, and will not come back until the sun rises. Russell graciously gave her a few days of paid leave. After all, he was only eighteen years old, so he would have a chance to grow taller if he slept more. "Russell, what can you do?" Gwen asked, "If we can't catch them all and let them attack the citizens, we will be in big trouble." "As long as you are well prepared and take advantage of vampires' weakness in fear of ultraviolet rays, it is not difficult to defeat them head-on." Russell frowned. “But if we want to catch them all, it’s difficult for just the two of us. Once they separate and flee, there is nothing we can do to stop them. Just call the police, Gwen. " "Call the police? Can the NYPD handle this kind of problem?" "Of course not. And there is a high probability that the New York Police Department has an undercover vampire. We have to reveal the news to someone with enough energy and gain his trust. " Russell and Gwen looked at each other and thought of someone at the same time. "Come on, Gwen, let's go find Tony Stark now." Stark Tower. Russell and Gwen met Tony as they wished. "Pajama baby, you're finally here. Have you thought about your wish? It's not a good feeling to owe someone a favor."
Tony was wearing casual clothes, holding a wine glass and talking casually. "And you, humorous boy, why are you here too?" Tony pretended to be surprised when he saw Russell. "Wine, coffee, or tea? Don't worry, I have everything here." Faced with Tony's teasing, Russell smiled and did not respond. I'll settle the score with you when you're poisoned by palladium. Gwen briefly explained the purpose of her trip to Tony. "Vampire? I always thought it was just an urban legend. Jarvis, check it out. " "Okay, sir." Tony sat on the sofa and took a sip of wine and said: "It's important. I need to verify it. Wait a moment, Jarvis will be quick." Seeing the data streams flashing quickly on the screen, Russell felt confused. Jarvis is really fast. After a moment, the data flow disappeared and was replaced by several architectural distant views and some written information. "Sir, retrieved from . database." Jarvis's voice came from the speaker, explaining in conjunction with the pictures and text on the screen. "The time when the vampire clan first appeared cannot be investigated. During World War II, the vampire clan had a conflict with Germany. Because of the flaws of the race itself, it was massacred, and not even one out of ten remained. Several branches of vampires escaped from Europe to the American continent, and seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with the authorities and received asylum. " The screen switched and a portrait was enlarged. "One of the vampire branches is now settled in New York, and its leader is called 'Dickon Frost'." "He is preparing to implement a plan - the coming of the Blood God. Use twelve pure vampires and the Sunwalker Blade Eric Brooks to awaken the Blood God through a mysterious ritual. After that, let the blood god embrace other vampires again to eliminate the flaws of his own race. ” Russell added. "Okay, it's a clichéd story. But doesn't it sound like something internal to a vampire?" Tony was puzzled. "Mr. Stark, Frost's ambitions go far beyond that." Russell explained. "Frost is a radical among vampires. He believes that vampires are supreme and humans are just food. He is very dissatisfied with the current situation of vampires and intends to provoke a war between vampires and humans. "
"Mr. Stark, there are now tens of thousands of vampires gathered in New York. Once there is a riot, the consequences will be disastrous." Gwen followed suit. "I have been investigating vampires these past few days and found that they are related to many disappearances." Tony frowned: "The situation is so serious, and there is no news at all from the FBI and the New York Police Department? And what about SHIELD? The slogan is quite nice." "Sir," Jarvis said, "Judging from the intercepted messages, SHIELD and the military already know the news." "Then why haven't they taken action yet?" Gwen asked doubtfully. "Today is Saturday, the military is on holiday." Tony said casually. "JARVIS, connect me to Nick Fury." Tony sat on the sofa, waiting for the call to come through. A huge stealth aircraft carrier floats over the east coast of the United States. "Mom, what are the military people thinking? They actually said they have a weekend off and they want to postpone the operation." Inside the aircraft carrier, a middle-aged white man dressed as a one-eyed pirate was yelling. "Let our agents keep an eye on the vampires and set up a blockade in secret. Brothers, thank you for your hard work. After handling this incident, your bonus will be doubled next month." Although he was annoyed by the unreliability of the US military, Nick Fury still ordered his men to be ready. "Sir, Tony Stark requested a connection." Why did Tony Stark look for me? Did he figure it out and join the Avengers? "Answer." "Nick Fury, do you know about the vampires?" Tony got to the point and asked directly. "I know, how did you know it?" "It doesn't matter where I know it." Tony asked dissatisfiedly. "Since you know it, why don't you take action?" Nick Fury was very unhappy when Tony questioned him. If the military hadn't been holding him back, he would have killed all the vampires by now. But he calmed down and said expressionlessly: "SHIELD has taken action." "I didn't see where you took action!" "It's confidential, no comment."
The conversation between the two froze for a moment. "Mr. Stark, our goals are the same." Coulson on the side spoke to ease the atmosphere, and said sincerely: "Tony, please believe that SHIELD has tried its best. "It's just that our strength is limited. "I hope we can cooperate sincerely this time to protect the safety of New York." "Okay." After a moment of silence, Tony took over Coulson's step and agreed to cooperate. "We exchanged information with each other, and I hope you won't say 'no comment' anymore."
