Chapter 15: Carbon steel knife, I want it! Thinking of this, he immediately followed Ulysses Klaue and his group quietly. The underground exchange was a mixed bag with all kinds of people. In addition, Peter was agile and his whereabouts were strange, so ordinary people could not find him at all. Not long after, he followed Ulysses into the interior of the Kingpin Building. Of course, he climbed the wall with his own agility. After entering the Jinbing Building, several tall and strong men led Yulisia to a meeting room on the top floor of the building. At this moment in the conference room, a bald man in a white suit was sitting on the sofa, holding a cigar in his mouth and puffing out smoke. This bald man has an extremely muscular body, and his bulging muscles seem to be about to burst his white suit. Even the strong men outside were like little chickens in front of him. This man was the ruler of the Hell's Kitchen district - Kingpin. "Boss, Ulysses is here!" A subordinate pushed open the door and said to Jin Bing respectfully. "Well, let him in!" Jin Bing tilted his head back and blew out a smoke ring, then put the cigar in the ashtray in front of him. Just at this moment, bearded Ulysses walked in laughing.
"Boss Jin, long time no see, you're still as charming as ever!" Ulysses said as he walked towards Jin Bing with his arms open. Seeing this, Jin Bing also smiled and opened his arms, and then the two of them hugged each other gently. It was obvious that they had a very close relationship. In this area, there are not many people who are qualified to be received by Jin Bing and hugged with respect. Ulysses in front of him is one of them. "Have you got all the munitions I want?" As soon as the two sat down, Jin Bing went straight to the point and asked, "As a famous arms dealer, Ulysses came here naturally for the arms business." "Don't worry, we've got it. The goods should have left the border of the Northern Bear Country and are on their way to the Beautiful Country. I estimate that all of them will be delivered in a few days. But Boss Jin, what exactly do you want to do this time by purchasing arms worth tens of millions? Such a large amount of munitions will easily attract the attention of those guys above, and once they find out, it will be quite troublesome." Ulysses asked curiously as he lit a cigar. Hearing this, Jin Bing shook the ash from his cigar, and then said expressionlessly: "Many people around me have died during this period. This gave me a bad feeling, so I bought more ammunition to calm my nerves. After all, all fear comes from insufficient firepower." Ulysses did not expect that the all-powerful underworld emperor Jin Bing would say this, which surprised him. "Boss Jin, you must be kidding! With your current status and strength, who can threaten you? I think you are just scaring yourself." "I thought so too, but it's never wrong to buy more arms. After all, the world is not very peaceful, and it's not a bad thing to have more protection." "Well, what you said is correct. By the way, I know you have the habit of collecting things, so I brought you a little gift this time." Ulysses said this and motioned for his men to bring the black box over. "What is this?" Looking at the black box in front of him, Jin Bing couldn't help but reveal curiosity on his face. As he spoke, he opened the black box, and suddenly, a cool black samurai sword appeared in front of him. "Samurai sword?" Jin Bing frowned and glanced at Ulysses beside him.
"Yes, a samurai sword, but this is not an ordinary samurai sword. This is a samurai sword made of a special metal called carbon steel invented by the Soviet Union during the Cold War. This sword is extremely tough and sharp. The key is that this carbon steel has another function, which is to inhibit the growth of self-healing factors. If you are injured by this knife, the self-healing factors will be inhibited and necrotized, so it is very effective in dealing with some freaks with super powers." Hearing Ulysses say this, Jin Bing couldn't help but show interest on his face. He took out his samurai sword, and then chopped it down with one stroke, easily splitting the table in front of him into two halves. "It's really sharp. I'll take the knife. You name a price!" Jin Bing nodded with satisfaction, and then put the carbon steel knife back into the box. "I told you this is just a small gift from me. I won't charge you for it." Ulysses waved his hand. Hearing this, Jin Bing sneered at him and said, "Ulysses, you never do anything without profit. Do you think I will believe you if you say you will give me such a valuable thing? Tell me, what do you want?" "Hahaha, after all these years, Boss Jin, you still know me so well. Now that you've seen through it, I won't hide it anymore. Well, I heard that you took over Kurt Connors' research project, and from what I understand, he seems to be working on a special serum that can strengthen the human body." When he heard Ulysses Klaue suddenly mention Kurt Connors, he was filled with anger. Because he had just become Kurt Connors' new financial backer for less than a month, and Kurt was killed last night. Kurt Connors was the only person in charge of the Lizard Serum project. His death meant that the progress of the Lizard Serum project was put on hold. This was a very troublesome thing for him because Kurt Connors' research project involved too much. If it was just for himself, he wouldn't care about it, because he had no interest in the so-called human strengthening potion from the beginning. However, the protective umbrella he relied on behind him was particularly concerned about this. The reason why he, a gangster, took over this project for the first time was because of the pressure from above. Yes, even Kingpin, the all-powerful underworld emperor, is not omnipotent in the entire United States. There are even more terrifying existences above him. In fact, anyone with a little bit of common sense can guess that it would be impossible for a gangster to be so lawless if he didn't have a protective umbrella. After all, the American people are no pushovers. If they really take it seriously, it is not impossible for them to wipe out a gang. But they have never done so, which shows that there is an invisible hand behind the scenes controlling everything and balancing the two forces. Of course, most people don’t know about this kind of thing, but Ulysses, as an arms dealer, sees it very clearly. "Don't you watch the TV news? Kurt Connors died last night!" Kingpin blew out a puff of smoke and said expressionlessly. "What!" Ulysses was surprised when he heard Jin Bing's words, and his eyes were full of surprise. "You really are asking for trouble. I am having a headache over this matter. His death has had a huge impact. I don't know how to explain this to the people above me. You should stop thinking about the lizard serum at this time, because there is no lizard serum in the world anymore." Jin Bing said in a deep voice. "I understand. Then just pretend I never asked. It's getting late and I should leave. I'll give you this samurai sword." Ulysses said and stood up and left. "I will give you the money for this samurai sword together with the balance of the arms. I never take things from others for free, you know." "It's up to you. You have plenty of money anyway. Just give it to me and I'll take it!" Ulysses laughed and left with his men. Suddenly, only Kingpin and his men were left in the room. "Put this samurai sword in my collection room." Jin Bing stood up and left the room. Before leaving, he turned around and looked at his men and gave instructions. "Yes." After hearing Jin Bing's order, his men picked up the black box on the table and walked towards the collection room, while Peter, who was hiding outside the window, began to act.
From the moment Ulysses entered the room, he relied on his sharp claws to grab the wall outside the thirty-story building and eavesdropped outside. Therefore, he heard the entire conversation between Kingpin and Ulysses. He was shocked if he hadn't heard it. He didn't expect that Ulysses came here to deliver arms to Jin Bing, and the arms were worth tens of millions. Although Kingpin is a gangster boss and his men do need guns and ammunition, they definitely don't need so many under normal circumstances. You know, arms worth tens of millions of US dollars are enough for him to form a special operations team of dozens of people and arm his men to the teeth. If he is really armed to this extent, then he is strong enough to deal with the threat from the military. Speaking of the military, Peter seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly changed. Is it possible that Kingpin wanted to deal with the military? Because he could hear it from their conversation just now. There is an even more terrifying existence above the underworld emperor Jin Bing, and that is Jin Bing's biggest umbrella of protection. The reason why he took over the Kurt Connors project was because of the pressure from above. In the United States, he could not think of anyone else who could put pressure on Kim Byung and act as his protector except people from the military. If all this is really as he guessed, then the things involved are too big. No wonder even the underworld emperor Jin Bing has a headache about it. However, he was happy to see Jin Bing get into trouble, because he had always intended to cause trouble for Jin Bing. Now that things have developed to this point, it just meets his expectations. He couldn't help but become interested in who the protective umbrella behind Jin Bing was, but now was obviously not the time to investigate the matter. Now his attention should be focused on the samurai sword. After all, it is a magical weapon made of carbon steel. As a time traveler, he naturally knew about carbon steel, because the dual swords used by Deadpool were forged from carbon steel. As Ulysses said, carbon steel can inhibit the growth of self-healing factors, so this knife is the nemesis of those with rapid self-healing abilities. In a parallel universe of Marvel, Deadpool once used a carbon steel knife to kill Wolverine, a mutant with terrifying self-healing abilities. From this we can see how useful this carbon steel knife is. During this period of time, he was planning to create Miss 2b, who was also a skilled knife-wielder. Therefore, if he could snatch this carbon steel knife, it would definitely become a handy weapon for Miss 2b. Therefore, he certainly couldn't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He was determined to get this samurai sword! While thinking this, he sneaked into the Jin Bing Building along the ventilation duct and found Jin Bing's collection room. The collection room contains various valuable items collected by Jin Bing, including calligraphy and paintings from Longguo, Western oil paintings, and various valuable antiques. The things stored in this small collection room are of great value. If he could take all of these things away, he would at least become a multi-millionaire. However, what he didn't expect was that the small collection room was full of traps and the security level was ridiculously high. He merely stuck his head out of the ventilation duct for a moment, and immediately triggered the alarm. All of a sudden, the entire Kingpin Building was filled with sirens.
Suddenly, all the gangsters in the Jinbing Building became extremely alert and started searching the building with weapons in hand. "Damn it, this carbon steel knife is too long to slip out through the ventilation duct. Looks like I have to force my way in." Peter wanted to go back to where he came from, but with the carbon steel knife in his hand, he found that he could not continue to leave through the ventilation duct. In desperation, he could only hold the knife in his hand and learn from the feedback from the reptile he controlled. At this moment, there were hundreds of gangsters armed with guns rushing towards him in the entire building. It wouldn't be long before he would be surrounded. Faced with so many fully armed gangsters, even though he was strengthened by the lizard serum, he was extremely fearful. After all, the other side has more people and more power. In this situation, as long as you have a brain, you should choose to avoid the fight and escape. Peter naturally felt the same way, so without saying a word, he used his terrifying strength to blow up the door of the collection room with one punch. Then he quickly ran to the end of the corridor and tried to escape through the window. But what he didn't expect was that the moment the alarm sounded. A 10-centimeter-thick steel plate automatically dropped from the windows of the entire building, directly blocking all exits. Such a thick steel plate cannot be blasted open by a carbon steel knife or even a grenade. Suddenly, the entire building turned into a bunker. "Hou Li Xie Te!!" Peter was stunned by seeing such a scene. He never expected that Jin Bing would be so steady. Who in their right mind would think of turning an entire building into a bunker? What on earth is this guy guarding against? But now was not the time to think about these things. Seeing that he could not leave through the window, he immediately turned around and looked for another exit along the corridor. But at this moment, a group of fully armed gangsters surrounded him from both ends of the corridor and blocked him directly in the middle of the corridor. "It looks like a fierce battle is inevitable!" Peter shook his head and said as he looked at the dozen or so gangsters that gathered around him. At the same time, he held the carbon steel knife that he had just stolen from the collection room in his hand. "That's great, let me try out your power!" (End of this chapter)
