Separate Actions

"The Osborn Group is partnering with the Stark Industries?" Harry Osborn's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing Tony Stark's suggestion. There are countless companies or individuals in the world who would like to partner with the Stark Industries, given Tony Stark's Kingpin, generosity, and exceptional ability to generate wealth—a fact universally acknowledged.

It's safe to say that in this world, there are probably more people who want to do business with Tony Stark than in a certain movie universe who want Wang Duoyu to invest in their dreams!

Harry Osborn clearly remembered that Norman Osborn had also considered cooperating with Stark Industries, but unfortunately, although the Osborn Group was a major financial entity, it had no connection with Stark Industries.

Norman Osborn not only had no personal relationship with Tony Stark, but also looked down on Obadiah at the time, so he had no chance to cooperate with the Stark Industries.

"Okay! I agree!" Now, with an opportunity to cooperate with the Stark Industries presented to him, Harry Osborn had to consider whether this might be his only chance in his life. Therefore, after listening to Tony Stark's explanation, Harry Osborn quickly agreed, fearing that something might go wrong.

Of course, this was also due to Harry Osborn's youth. If Norman Osborn were still alive, even if he also wanted to cooperate with Stark Industries, he would certainly have fought for enough benefits for himself in this situation. But clearly, Harry Osborn at this time had no such thoughts at all.

Tony Stark wasn't surprised by Harry Osborn's eagerness, after all, Harry Osborn did need some achievements to prove his strength and stabilize the Osborn Group.

Even Tony Stark didn't need to specifically inquire to know that after Norman Osborn's death, even if Harry Osborn successfully inherited Norman Osborn's position, there would definitely be many people dissatisfied. In addition, the Osborn Group's stock price wasn't doing well at the moment. Therefore, putting everything else aside, Harry Osborn himself needed this opportunity.

"Contact me if anything comes up. I need to take care of the Spider-Man's affairs first." Clark's eyes flickered slightly after seeing Tony Stark and Harry Osborn reach an agreement, and he said this to Steve and Tony Stark.

Clark knew that the mainstays of the Avengers ' fighting power were himself and Robet, but the people responsible for the organization's establishment, operation, daily expenses, and the confrontations with Official Agencies were Tony Stark and Steve.

Given Clark's reluctance to reveal his true identity and his desire to avoid direct conflict with the human authorities, the presence of Steve and Tony Stark is undoubtedly crucial.

This applies not only to Clark, but also to Robet and even Peter Parker. Apart from Tony Stark, whose special status means he doesn't need to worry about the negative consequences of his identity being exposed, the vast majority of other superheroes do not want their identities to be revealed.

Even Bruce Wayne, whose identity is very similar to Tony Stark's and whose life on the surface is exactly the same as Tony Stark's, has not revealed his true identity. This is naturally due to Bruce Wayne's own concerns...

Therefore, Clark knew that he would definitely need to consult with Steve and Tony Stark before this operation, and that Harry Osborn and the Osborn Group's subsequent involvement would also be helpful to his operation.

Clark can guarantee that his actions will not be discovered by official or civilian agencies, but those who are rescued will certainly be able to conceal Clark's identity. And to be honest, Clark's Superman identity is too famous. Even if there is no evidence to prove that Clark did it, people will still suspect that he is Superman.

Especially since Official Agencies don't need much evidence to raise suspicions, and the Avengers are practically the only organization that can connect with Superman, those Official Agencies will definitely focus their attention on the Avengers.

Furthermore, since the Avengers had already prevented Official Agencies from researching and spying on the Spider-Man Army, a new round of verbal sparring is inevitable. Even if they don't lose in terms of public opinion, who knows if the authorities will smear the Avengers?

Therefore, before taking any further action, Clark should first inform Tony Stark and Steve, so that they can prepare accordingly, lest they suffer losses from fighting an unprepared battle.

"Don't worry, if it weren't for my lack of ability, I would want to do the same thing as you. You're doing very well. Keep going with your heart, I have high hopes for you!" Steve said to Clark with a serious expression.

"I used to suspect you had ulterior motives, but now it seems I'm just too old and have seen too much filth. I'm no longer so trusting of people. You, like I was back then, have your own yearning and persistence for the light. I hope that under your leadership, more people in this new era will be influenced by you and have their inner truth, goodness, and beauty awakened..."

"It's not that easy. People's hearts are too complicated in this era, and human nature isn't so easily influenced!" Tony Stark said with some emotion after hearing Steve's words. "This isn't your era anymore. Superman was once regarded as a god by many, but how many people could truly be considered his followers, truly influenced by him, and begin to do good because of him? There's still a significant gap between role models or beliefs and real life..."

"Yes, all I can do is ensure what I do. As for the rest, I can't guarantee anything..." Clark nodded in agreement. He didn't think he could influence many people, even though his name was now known all over the world and he had saved countless people. Those people regarded him as a savior, as a god, but not many of them would change because of him.

"If there's anything you can't handle, or any information you're unsure about, you can contact Jarvis and me. We'll assist you," Tony Stark said to Clark. "Your strength is formidable, even beyond our comprehension, but you can't underestimate the power of technology. It's best to avoid being discovered as much as possible. That way, our dealings with the Official Agencies will likely remain at the level of verbal sparring; we won't actually break ties..."

"Okay, I'll be careful," Clark replied, his figure disappearing from the spot.

"Is it really that complicated?" Robet looked in the direction Clark disappeared, his eyes flickering slightly. He had initially thought that with Clark's strength, handling such matters shouldn't be a problem. But now it seemed that those Official Agencies were perhaps even more Greed and self-righteous than he had imagined, as if it were perfectly justified for them to study those infected Spider-Man. Even if the Avengers were in the right, they couldn't completely gain the upper hand.

"Should we go help them too?" Robet had originally planned to spar with Kara and have another big fight, but after seeing Clark's actions, Robet felt that he might be able to help Clark.

After all, Robet possesses the Transformation Technique. Compared to Clark, Robet is less afraid of being photographed. Robet can simply create several generic faces, allowing Official Agencies to search slowly and thus creating confusion...

"Hmm, okay then." Kara pouted, thinking that her younger brother Clark seemed to be having a tough time, so she decided to go help him out. After all, among the Avengers, Kara and Robet were probably the only ones who could really help.

Of the remaining people, Pietro and Barry Allen were fast, but finding so many scattered people and rescuing them all at once was still quite difficult.

If intelligence is available, Susan Storm would be quite suitable for this task, since her invisibility ability can help others become invisible, making Susan Storm safer whether facing people or technological surveillance.

However, Susan Storm's strength is ultimately limited. Sometimes, when faced with heavily guarded bases, even with Susan Storm invisibility abilities, she might not be able to get in. Susan Storm own strength is also insufficient to force her way into these places.

Furthermore, Susan Storm clearly hadn't thought of anything she could help with, so Kara and Robet didn't mention it to Susan Storm, and the two quickly flew away.

"Um, I have something to do too, I'll be going now? Harry, are you coming with me?" Just after Kara and Robet flew away, Peter Parker's eyes flickered slightly. He first spoke to the other Avengers, then looked at Harry Osborn.

"Um...you go first. I need to discuss some details of the follow-up cooperation with Mr. Stark first, and then I'll come find you." Harry Osborn was taken aback when he heard this. The other Avengers didn't know what Peter Parker was going to do this time. They thought that Peter Parker was in a bad mood and needed time to calm down. But Harry Osborn knew that Peter Parker was going to see Wade, so he decisively rejected Peter Parker's suggestion.

Harry Osborn really didn't want to have anything to do with Wade anymore. Even if Wade joined the Avengers in the future, Harry Osborn Harry Osborn still didn't want to interact with Wade much. He had already been tormented enough during their previous meal.

In other words, they knew that Wade's strength might be quite formidable, and that Harry Osborn was a rather docile person before the Serum affected his mind; otherwise, Harry Osborn might have attacked Wade during the meal!

"Is that so? Okay!" Peter Parker felt a little disappointed when he heard Harry Osborn refuse him, because he wanted Harry Osborn to come along in the hopes that he could share some of the firepower from Wade's verbal attacks.

Earlier during dinner, if Harry Osborn hadn't shared some of the firepower, Peter Parker felt he might not have been able to hold back. Now that he was going to see Wade alone, would he end up fighting with Wade? This made Peter Parker somewhat doubtful.

Even though Wade wasn't very interested in Harry Osborn, resulting in Harry Osborn not taking on too much of the burden, every little bit helps, and Peter Parker didn't want to shoulder any more responsibility.

"Are you really sure it's okay for you to just let him go like this?" After watching Peter Parker leave, Tony Stark looked at Harry Osborn hesitantly and asked, "Or, could we find another opportunity to talk about it next time?"

"No need, don't underestimate Peter, I grew up with him..." Harry Osborn quickly shook his head. He didn't want to expose the misunderstanding that Tony Stark and the others had, because it was really hard to talk about Wade.

"Oh, right..." Tony Stark saw Harry Osborn's conflicted look and remembered that Harry Osborn had just gone through something similar to Peter Parker. He completely misunderstood Harry Osborn's meaning and thought that it would be better to let Peter Parker be alone for a while.

Soon, the Avengers Base gradually quieted down. Tony Stark and Harry Osborn began discussing a potential collaboration between their two corporations. Of course, such a collaboration couldn't be announced immediately; they needed to first establish shell companies to help the Osborn Group grow stronger, and then discuss the details further when the time was right...

Pietro and the others left the base to rest before continuing to develop their abilities. Their performance in the Spider-Man incident was not as good as when they faced the Shadow-Devouring Soldiers last time, at least then each of them dealt with quite a few Shadow-Devouring Soldiers.

Furthermore, Robet's earlier words made Pietro and the others realize that if they wanted to continue to increase their strength, they could only rely on their own efforts and exploration. It was even uncertain whether they could truly find their way out; they might even discover, after all their efforts, that it was a completely impassable path...

However, even so, Pietro and the others did not want to give up now, not only because they wanted to remain in the extraordinary world, but also because they could not turn a blind eye to it, and they did not want to be powerless when they wanted to save or change something...

Meanwhile, after leaving the Avengers ' base, Peter Parker quickly found Wade, Wade had been waiting for him. When Wade saw Wade Peter Parker, his eyes lit up instantly.

It's not just because Peter Parker is also one of Wade's favorites, but also because Peter Parker is crucial to whether Wade can continue his entanglement with the Avengers...
