Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye.
The deal with the military and S.H.I.E.L.D. went smoothly. Whatever backroom deals the two sides had made, they eventually reached an agreement, each placing an initial order for a full thousand 0 Version suits.
With connections at the top, things were easy. The day after the deal was finalized, Li Si, who had been given the green light at every turn, registered a shell company and contacted a contract manufacturer to rush the suits' basic components.
After all, these were just ordinary items made of fabric, wires, tasers, and sensors. Without the core control program, they were little more than tools for self-harm, so there was no need to worry about the technology leaking.
The only tricky part was the Bionic Muscle Fiber. The final assembly could be done by the contract manufacturer, but Li Si had to synthesize the Bionic Muscle Fiber himself.
The two thousand suits didn't require a small amount of Bionic Muscle Fiber, but it wasn't a huge amount, either. There was no need to buy a factory and set up a production line, so Li Si simply put in the extra effort and made it himself at home.
Once synthesized, the fibers were shipped straight to the contract manufacturer, where they were woven together into a bionic muscle layer and fitted into the suits' inner layers. With the bulletproof outer layer added, the result was a batch of brand-new suits. General Ross and S.H.I.E.L.D. would send people to collect them afterward.
One particularly dramatic incident was worth mentioning. When the troop transport sent by General Ross arrived at the contract manufacturer with a truckload of soldiers, it nearly scared the owner half to death. By the time the S.H.I.E.L.D. order was ready, the owner was so
