Chapter 127: When Tony Meets Fury

BONUS Chapter brought to you by KingSpy25i, enjoy!

In short, after obtaining the Translation Konjac, Mathison decided to test how it works as usual. 

Charlie is naturally the best experiment subject. 

Therefore, the scene from seconds ago happened. 

This kind of Translation Konjac is not simply a single-use item that will disappear after one activation. 

When Mathison wants to use it, he only needs to recite its name in his mind, and the Translation Konjac will automatically appear in his hand. 

“If you dare to curse at me in the future, I will make sure that I sabotage your plans so that Batman will catch you!” 

Mathison snorted and took his hand away from Charlie. 

Charlie looked at the mess of dog hair that was jacked all over his body and was left in tears.

This move has no effect on ordinary dogs and is even considered a sign of closeness. 

But for Charlie, who attaches great importance to his image, it is like letting a fierce man who loves long hair shave his hair short. 

This is worse than death!

Especially since he is also powerless to resist. 

How would he face the cold weather now?! 

Charlie laid on the sofa with his ears drooped, eyes blank, as if the dog had lost his goal in life. 

“Don’t play dead on me, we have to try whether this Translation Konjac can only be used by me or others as well.” 

Mathison lifted Charlie in one hand and said helplessly. 

Seeing that Charlie was still looking lifeless, Mathison had to help Charlie take off the bow-tie voice changer again. 

Then, he took out a piece of the Translation Konjac and stuffed it into Charlie’s mouth. 

“Woof! Woof!” 

Charlie suddenly felt a foreign object break into his mouth, and suddenly started struggling. 

Then Mathison ruthlessly closed his mouth, and Charlie could only swallow the Translation Konjac in tears. 

By the way, this item is actually delicious! 

“How about now, Charlie; can you understand me?” 

Mathison put both hands under Charlie’s two forefoot and picked him up, shaking him while asking. 

“Woof! Woof!” 

Since he hadn’t his bow-tie voice changer, Charlie was still barking. 

But Mathison instantly understood what he wanted to express. 

Then, was instantly embarrassed… 

“I can understand human language even without Translation Konjac. It’s useless to feed it me!” 

Cough! 

Mathison coughed slightly, “I did this to cheer you up. It’s not good to be depressed all day.” 

It seems that there is currently no way to test whether the Translation Konjac can be effective for others, but when he watched “Doraemon”, this item is effective as long as it is consumed, regardless of who they are. 

At least now the problem of his inability to communicate with Charlie in front of others had been resolved. 

Compared to dogs speaking human language, even if Mathison talks to Charlie on the street, it will only be regarded as being affectionate to his pet… without being said, it depends on what they are talking about. 

If he utters the wrong thing, he may be regarded as mentally ill. 

Meanwhile, in order to give S.H.I.E.L.D. a chance to reach himself, Tony flew to a remote dessert store in his Mark battlesuit and bought a bag of donuts.

Then sat on a giant donut model on the roof of the dessert store and swaggered up to eat. 

“Sir, the number of pedestrians and vehicles on the surrounding roads suddenly decreased.” 

Hearing Jarvis’ report, Tony knew that this was a sign that S.H.I.E.L.D. had come here. 

“Sir! Please get off that donut!” 

Sure enough, it didn’t take long for a one-eyed egghead in a black leather trench coat appeared down the dessert shop and shouted at Tony. 

“Nick Fury?” 

Although it was Tony’s first time meeting Fury, Coulson had long ago told him about S.H.I.E.L.D.’s director’s characteristics. 

The thing is: Fury’s characteristics are so distinct that there is no second person in the world who might look like him. 

The guy is wearing a black trenchcoat in such hot weather, is he not afraid of getting heatstroke? 

Although Tony’s battle suit is much thicker than the windbreaker, he has a built-in air conditioner that can adjust its temperature anytime and anywhere. 

“I’m so relieved that you remember my name. It seems that Coulson told you a lot about me.” 

Fury looked up at Tony and urged. 

“I have something very important to talk to you about today. We don’t have much time.” 

“Oh, I told you before, I don’t want to join your Super Heroes team. You wouldn’t forget it this soon, would you?” 

From the moment Fury appeared, Tony knew that what Phantom Kid had said was true, that S.H.I.E.L.D. had really hidden Howard’s relics privately without his consent!

If it were Tony who had lost all hope before, he would be obliged to go down as soon as he saw Fury. 

But now, there is no way this egghead would make Tony give him easily what he wants. 

He pretended to think that Fury was here to personally invite him to join the “Avengers Project”, so he sat steadily on top of the donut model while enjoying his donuts. 

“I remember, you like to do everything by yourself.” 

Fury chuckled, with a faint sarcasm in his eyes. 

“But what about the results?”

“The results… the results?” 

Tony had a confused expression on his face, as if he didn’t understand what Fury was implying. 

“Sorry, I am a little hungover, I don’t know if I should… look at your eyepatch or your functioning eye?” 

Tony blinked and kept staring at Fury up and down. 

Fury is very anxious now, because this short conversation has made him feel the heat absorption effect of the black trenchcoat and how well the thick leather material keeps his body very warm. 

At least at this point, he was pretty sure that the high-grade trench coat he had spent thousands of dollars on a special order had not shrunk in the materials used.

“In fact, I am not sure if you are real or an illusion. People around here seem to have evaporated suddenly.” 

Tony looked around and asked. 

“I am a real person, very, very real, I am the most real person you will ever meet!” 

Fury said without the slightest embarrassment. 

“Well, Mr. Stark, why do we have to talk here? This is not a place for business discussion…” 

“I have cleared the surrounding area, but you better not spend too much time here.” 

At this moment, a beautiful red wavy woman in black tights walked over with a pile of documents in her hand. 

Unlike Fury’s clothing, her black tights have good breathability. They might look thick, but are actually very thin. 

“Natalie?” 

After Tony saw the incoming person, his face became gloomy.

Phantom Kid didn’t tell him that S.H.I.E.L.D. had sent someone to spy on him… 

… the very person who was chosen by Tony himself. 

«They really knew about my palladium poisoning a long time ago, Natalie is estimated to always observe the extent of my poisoning, both to ensure that my poisoning symptoms are dragged to the deepest point, but also to not let me really die… »

Tony thought to himself. 

“In order for me to work willingly for S.H.I.E.L.D., I really have to waste a lot of time…” 

“Let me introduce you again, this is Agent Romanoff.” 

Fury introduced Natasha’s true identity to Tony. 

“Chief, why didn’t you go to the planned coffee shop?” 

Natasha asked Fury strangely and then very quickly continued with the next sentence.

“Forget it, we don’t have much time, it doesn’t matter where we talk.” 

Fury: “…” 

Natasha took out a strange syringe and gestured to Tony above. 

“This is lithium dioxide, which can quickly relieve your palladium poisoning. Although it can only temporarily suppress symptoms, it can help you survive the last few days.” 

“I confirmed yesterday that your palladium poisoning reaction has entered a very serious degree. If you don’t inject lithium dioxide, you may not survive these two days!”
