"Director, the meteorite iron you wanted has arrived."

As he spoke, a stern-looking man with a bow slung across his back pushed open the door and walked in. "There isn't much of it, but I figured it should be enough—"

Before he could finish, he saw Fang Mo sitting atop an enormous chunk of gold, eating fried chicken.

At the same time, Coulson and several agents were sawing away with all their strength, trying to cut up the gold beneath Fang Mo's butt. As for Nick Fury, he was holding half a glass of iced cola, trying hard to stay calm, though his face was several shades darker than the drink in his hand.

Honestly, the scene was so absurd that even Hawkeye froze for a moment.

"Agent Barton."

Nick Fury noticed him as well and pointed directly at Fang Mo. "Allow me to introduce you. This is our newly hired Technical Consultant, Mr. Fang Mo."

"As for this—"

"Oh, I know this guy."

Before Nick Fury could finish, Fang Mo spoke up. "The famous Hawkeye. He got shipped with Black Widow, huh... He might not measure up to those monsters in terms of strength, but he's definitely a good teammate. He cares deeply about his people. Though later, he retired outright for his wife and kids. You should cherish him."

"So this is Divination too?" Nick Fury couldn't help asking. "Is there anything in this world you don't know?"

"Sure. I'm not some omniscient, omnipotent god."

Fang Mo spread his hands. "Haven't you heard the saying from the East? 'Never calculate a fortune to its end, for the Heavenly Dao is ever-changing'... That's what it means. Compared to the vast, boundless universe, humanity is far too insignificant. So mankind's greatest happiness is ignorance. Sometimes, knowing too much only leads to madness."

"Wait, did that really come from the East?"

Nick Fury couldn't help saying, "Praising ignorance and falling into madness... Isn't that from the mythological novels written by Lovercraft?"

"What? This world has Cthulhu too?"

Fang Mo was instantly stunned.

"What do you mean, 'this world'?" Nick Fury's gaze sharpened at once. "Where exactly did you come from?"

"Of course I came from Minecraft."

Fang Mo shrugged, making a pun. "Anyway, it'd be a hassle to explain, and I can't be bothered going into detail. Hurry up and bring me the meteorite iron. I still need to study advanced alchemy."

"You said the same thing when you took Captain America's shield."

Nick Fury said, "But in reality, you only touched it for a while before tossing it aside. I don't believe advanced alchemy is something that can be learned so easily."

"Is alchemy really so inconvenient?"

Fang Mo immediately retorted, "Besides, do you understand Witchcraft? Are you a Stand User? The principles of advanced alchemy are so complicated that you people probably wouldn't understand them even after hearing them ten thousand times. But I'm a player with cheats. My talent's just too damn insane—there's nothing I can do about it. I can learn it instantly."

As he spoke, Fang Mo stretched out a hand.

"Hand it over!"

Hawkeye felt his suitcase suddenly shake. Then, an enormous force struck it, and the suitcase flew uncontrollably toward Fang Mo. It automatically came apart in midair, revealing a piece of pitch-black meteorite iron ore inside.

"..."

With his belongings suddenly snatched away, Hawkeye immediately reached for the compound bow on his back.

"Agent Barton, calm down."

Seeing this, Nick Fury immediately stopped him. "He really is our Technical Consultant. The item in your hands was meant for him in the first place. Besides, he has already paid his 'compensation.'"

"..."

Hearing his superior say that, Hawkeye seemed to understand something. He glanced thoughtfully at the gold block beneath Fang Mo, then silently put away his bow.

As for Fang Mo—

He was studying the Black Meteorite Iron before him.

Of course, although it was called studying, Fang Mo had already figured out the system's rules for determining things. So right now, he was stroking the meteorite iron ore in his hand as though petting a cat.

Before long, a notification sounded in his mind.

System Prompt: You have studied the atomic structures of 'Raw Vibranium,' 'God Metal Uru,' 'Black Meteorite Iron,' and more. You have gained download access to a new mod.

System Prompt: Tinkers' Construct More Alloys Addon has begun downloading.

"So it really was this..."

Feeling the information in his mind, Fang Mo nodded subconsciously. It seemed his guess had been right. Uru and Vibranium really were alloy addons for Tinkers' Construct.

If Fang Mo remembered correctly, the special alloys in this mod all had extremely powerful traits.

For example, Void Gold had the Soul Eater trait: the more monsters you killed, the higher the weapon's attack power became. Then there was Imperial Gold's Brain Death trait—hit an enemy, and it directly erased their AI, turning them into a literal brain-dead idiot.

Those two traits alone were already absurdly overpowered in the game. If Fang Mo brought these two metals into reality, what kind of surprises would they bring him?

By then, he'd have a God Devourer in his left hand and a Brain Damage Creator in his right...

Just thinking about it made him invincible, didn't it?

"Alright, this time, I've truly mastered my ultimate technique."

Thinking of this, Fang Mo was in an excellent mood. He directly handed the meteorite iron ore back to Hawkeye. "Once I go back and build a mob farm, I'll really be invincible under heaven."

"What's a mob farm?"

Nick Fury asked, "Something like a wizard's tower?"

"I think it sounds more like a concept from a game." To everyone's surprise, it was Agent Hawkeye who spoke up this time. "It sounds like a structure designed to efficiently slaughter monsters."

"Hm?"

At Hawkeye's words, Nick Fury's gaze flickered, though no one knew what he was thinking.

Before long, however, several researchers approached Nick Fury to request permission to use equipment such as cranes or devices for blasting through rock layers.

The reason was simple. The Hammer in the crater could not be lifted at all. How were they supposed to study it if they could not move it? They also wanted to test the density and mass of the unknown metal. These researchers were certainly bold—if manpower could not lift the Hammer, then they would use machinery. The power of science was limitless.

In that regard, they really were a lot like Tony Stark: fanatics who believed in science.

"That Hammer really can't be lifted?"

Looking over the research report his subordinate handed him, Nick Fury seemed intrigued. "Are you sure you've tried every method?"

"Yes, Director."

The researcher was visibly excited. "The metal composing this Hammer is extremely unusual. It does not seem to correspond to any element on the Periodic Table of Elements, and a powerful electromagnetic field surrounds it. At times, it even interferes with the operation of electronic equipment..."

"Approve the use of a crane."

After thinking for a moment, Nick Fury said directly, "But reject the blasting proposal. First, try—"

Before he could finish, Fang Mo cut in.

"Give it up. I hear that thing was forged from the core of a dying star, and Odin cast Asgardian Magic on it. Scientific methods won't work. Not even a hundred-thousand-ton crane could drag it."

"Oh, really?"

Hearing Fang Mo's words, Nick Fury seemed to recall something. He turned to Fang Mo directly. "If scientific methods won't work... what about you?"

"Can you lift it?"
