Watching Ivan Vanko grin as he got excited by his own thoughts,
Noah was quite satisfied as well.
He had secured a top-tier scientist.
Ivan Vanko had managed to build even a miniature reactor. Even if he was inferior to Tony Stark, he was still among the very best.
With Ivan Vanko joining him, his company's technology projects could gradually begin taking shape.
And Dr. Ethan—once Ivan Vanko had set the stage, he probably would not refuse Noah's recruitment again.
Of course, when it came to reactors, Tony Stark's was certainly better.
But what did slightly inferior quality matter? With Ivan Vanko around, the quantity would definitely keep up.
Besides, given Tony Stark's personality, the Artificial Intelligence program he had handed over very likely contained a backdoor.
Perhaps Ivan Vanko and Dr. Ethan could inspect it together and see whether they could find it.
Of course, that was not foolproof.
For truly important data, physical storage was still more reassuring.
As for whether Ivan Vanko could handle Tony Stark...
Noah could only mourn for him.
It was something destined to be impossible.
Hell's Kitchen seemed to have returned to peace once again.
Over the past few days, Noah had been busy with the new base.
As huge sums of money were poured in, the priority project, Hive, had completed its main structure. The interior work took up much of his time.
But Noah knew Kingpin would not disappear.
At the same time, he understood that when Kingpin attacked next, it would not be another minor skirmish. He would come with every intention of killing him.
Noah was rather looking forward to that possibility.
Because he could not find where Kingpin's real body was.
When someone wanted to hide—especially someone like Kingpin, an underground emperor—it was not so easy to find
