In response to Jarvis' question, Tony Stark said, "Value Line? Where did this come from? Why should I accept his invitation?"
"It's a company owned by Wilson Grant Fisk. He is running for mayor of New York City. According to investigation data, he is the biggest gang leader in the entire United States." Jarvis said.
"Oh, okay, a gangster boss, then what does this have to do with me? Is our company's arms business also open to them?" Stark asked.
Jarvis said in a steady voice, "No, according to the invitation letter, just like Columbus discovered the New World, their company has discovered the secret to longevity in the human body."
"And at the press conference tomorrow, he will randomly draw a lucky person and share the secret of longevity with him for free."
"Not only us, but also major media around the world, the military and political circles across the United States, and even the heads of major companies have all been invited by him."
Listening to Jarvis' description, Tony Stark felt that this thing was more and more unreliable: "Is his Value Line company a super biological company? Otherwise, how could it produce such results?"
"No, sir. According to their propaganda, the secret of longevity is in a book. As long as you study it step by step, you can live a long life and nourish a special energy that could boost the body, it was not stated in detail the details were kept vague I presume for attracting more publicity."
"An Aphrodisiac?" Upon hearing about the boosting effect, Stark mind went to his special expertise, he had already decided in his heart to participate even if he felt that this was a scam.
After all, how could he, a playboy known throughout the United States, be absent from such an interesting event?
"Jarvis, send me all the information about tomorrow's press conference. I want to find out for myself." Stark said, and the next moment a lot of information was summarized in front of him.
Soon, while browsing the information, Stark noticed a name that appeared very frequently: "Kevin White? How strange."
Soon, after seeing what Kevin did after his debut, Stark exclaimed: "Oh my God, this is exactly me, just as handsome as when I was young."
JARVIS: ...
Soon, after understanding the situation, he slapped his thigh and said, "Jarvis, help me accept the invitation from that company, and end my Scheduled vacation in Hawaii and return to New York. I will go there to see it tomorrow."
…
"I have two invitations from Value Line Company. Who of you would like to go with me?" Professor X said in the Mutant Academy, holding two tickets in his hand.
"Professor, what are you going there for? Do you really believe that some company and Kevin have worked out the secret of extending life? It's just a self-boasting personal biography." Cyclops crossed his arms, leaning against the door and said unhappily.
Because the Mutant Academy is near New York, and now all major places in New York are filled with Kingpin pervasive propaganda, it would be strange if they didn't know about this event.
"But how come you have an invitation letter, Professor? Was it sent to you by Kevin?" Jean Grey asked curiously.
"This was given to me by Eric, and it is the result of that child's work. I must go there and take a look." Professor X smiled and was very satisfied with Kevin progress.
Just a few days ago, he also discovered the identity of Kevin mutant identity through his telepathic ability.
Although his psychic ability was noticed by him in an instant, and he cursed and said that if he discovered something similar again in the future, he would go to the Mutant Academy himself and let Cyclops use rays to give Professor X a good beating.
No matter how Kevin have become a mutant, the mere fact that he was a mutant made him very happy.
He had a hunch that in the future, Kevin would be the link between humans and mutants.
"This is given to you by Magneto! That guy has indeed contacted him. This is a conspiracy of the Brotherhood!" Cyclops was so excited at this moment as if he had seen a grand conspiracy unfolding before his eyes.
Seeing his agitated look, Professor X could only look at Jean Grey and say, "Jean, come with me then."
Jean Grey, who felt that her boyfriend was a bit embarrassing, nodded helplessly.
…
On the top floor of Value Line, Fisk took a puff of his cigar and said, "The invitations have been sent out, who will come?"
"Thanks to our hard work in promoting the event, those who have agreed to attend include the current president and vice president, mayors and governors of some states, the president of Stark Industries... and reporters from major media outlets."
The subordinates behind him answered as if they were calling out the names of dishes, and everyone he mentioned was a powerful figure who could stir up the situation.
"Also, as per your instructions, boss, we randomly allocated 30 spots to the city, but they were quickly snatched up by a number of unknown forces. However, we currently do not know who these people are, so we can only wait until tomorrow to enter with our tickets."
"Very good. Remember, when you use the machine that randomly draws the number of people who will be passing on their energy tomorrow, the candidate must be the same person who was chosen at the beginning." Fisk said while tapping the railing with his fingers.
"But if it's that person, he might not be willing. After all, if something goes wrong, the impact will be too great." The subordinate said in a low voice.
Seeing his men talking back, Fisk frowned and said, "It's all about having a big influence. Don't worry, I've already contacted them in advance, and they will cooperate with me."
The subordinate realized that he had overstepped his authority and quickly took a step back, saying, "Yes, I spoke too much."
At the same time, on S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury looked at Coulson and said, "Tomorrow is the launch of Kevin's new book. I got two random spots they released. You can go with me."
"Chief, there's no need. they're just distributing a book." Hawkeye said on the side.
"The book is not important; it's just an ordinary autobiography. The point is that the people who came are too important." Nick Fury said speechlessly: "Too many important people appeared. If someone is assassinated there, it might directly affect the world situation."
"I just can't understand why so many people come to read this autobiography. How much bribe did Kingpin give?" Hill said.
"Those people didn't go for Kingpin, but for Kevin's sake."
Nick Fury said: "If you are like Kevin, whose personal combat power can influence the direction of a battle, others will give you some leeway if you invite them."
After hearing what Fury said, everyone fell silent helplessly. What he said really made sense.
Not only the upper class, under Kingpin's operation, the entire signing meeting tomorrow will be broadcast live to the public, and you can watch it as long as you turn on your computer.
And it claimed that Kevin's autobiography "Everyone Has a Chance to be extraordinary" is a groundbreaking book that could push human evolution forward.
