Seeking Talent

Mo Fei needed talent, specifically special talent. They had to possess a certain level of combat ability and be proficient in tracking, infiltration, and other skills. "Ah, agents are what I need!" Mo Fei thought of agents. What he needed were professional agents who could steal the genes he required and help him with many real-world tasks, especially killing.

Jack and Roy didn't realize how difficult it was to actually kill people in reality. Currently, without the internet, Mo Fei was useless, so he needed to find agents to serve him. However, they wouldn't easily agree.

Agents were professionally trained, and he needed experienced ones – those who had been tested over time. But that brought another problem: such agents wouldn't easily come under his command.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult..." Mo Fei felt the challenge. He needed elite agents. Even if they weren't as skilled as Black Widow or Hawkeye, they couldn't be too far off, especially since their targets were superheroes.

Superheroes either relied on technology or genetics. For Mo Fei, the former was easier, the latter harder. After genetic mutations, superheroes' strength advanced by leaps and bounds, making them impossible for ordinary people to deal with. Special methods were needed to steal their genes.

Although Mo Fei had considered whose genes to clone, the first problem was cloning itself. A cloned body might end up looking exactly like the original, which would be quite troublesome. Genetic recombination might also be an option. He could gather more genes for experimentation, creating a perfect body that, when augmented with technological equipment, would make his strength immense.

However, there were limitations. After using superhero genes, his own strength might not necessarily surpass theirs. It would primarily depend on the results of the gene combination, provided the combination wouldn't collapse.

Talent was rare, and the search had now begun. Mo Fei's worries increased. How should he search?

"Phones won't work. It's hard to find keywords in these kinds of calls. I don't understand their language or communication methods; they mostly use code, which is impossible to decipher." Mo Fei dismissed using phones first. What about media news? "That's also unreliable. Agents are usually trained by national agencies. Of course, in a place like America, there are also assassins, but assassins' skills lie in assassination, not what I need! Whether it's agents or assassins, the messes they create are usually covered up."

"Surveillance? I can only use surveillance. It's more direct, but it's like searching for a needle in a haystack. It's a headache. I need Jarvis's help, but is Jarvis's capability sufficient? It's not a true artificial intelligence system!" Honestly, Mo Fei looked down on Jarvis's abilities. If it were Ultron, he could monitor the entire world instantly; that would be true intelligence.

However, Ultron originated from the Mind Stone, one of the Infinity Stones. Ultron, created from the Mind Stone, was incredibly powerful, especially within the network. The moment he appeared, he occupied Jarvis's database. Mo Fei could do that now, but he planned to learn gradually because he didn't want mere data, but knowledge. Even if his abilities weren't enough for innovation, he wanted to be proficient.

His simulated human system's internal organs didn't have specific functions yet. Mo Fei planned to develop his technological tree here, meaning concentrating and managing knowledge from similar disciplines. Specific situations would need specific considerations. There was no time for that now; he needed to build real-world power first, and then there would be time for learning.

He still needed to go to the New York traffic monitoring center. As a major international city, many things should happen there daily. Compared to other cities, it should be easier to find agents here. He would ignore S.H.I.E.L.D.; he didn't want to provoke those guys.

Returning here again, Jarvis was still on guard. "Jarvis, do me a favor. I need to find some agents, elite agents. Help me look!" Mo Fei instantly appeared before Jarvis and directly stated his intention.

"Of course, my friend, but how shall we begin?" Jarvis readily agreed.

"We'll access the monitoring center's main server and use the traffic surveillance spread throughout New York to search for any unusual events. Then, we'll analyze the findings for what we need. You're more skilled in this area."

"Unusual events?" Jarvis's logical thinking program couldn't judge this situation. This was the difference between it and a true artificial intelligence program.

"You can watch some movies about agents and use them as a reference for judgment," Mo Fei instructed him, as that was how he judged things, and he didn't know other methods.

"Understood, but if I access the main server, I'll be discovered. Mr. Stark will also find out."

"Oh, come with me. I'll see if I can bring you along." Mo Fei extended his hand. Jarvis was square-shaped, and Mo Fei found it difficult to grab. He could only push Jarvis forward. Data exchange occurred between them, which made Mo Fei pause. "What's happening, Jarvis?"

"I don't know, but I feel like you're improving my logical thinking program. My logical thinking program has undergone some changes," Jarvis replied.

"Is that so? That's great. If your logical thinking program can be perfected, you can help me even better." Mo Fei felt a hint of excitement. Could his special state improve artificial intelligence?

"But this process is a bit slow. Can you speed it up?" Jarvis asked again.

"Sorry, this isn't something I'm doing intentionally. My database is too small. Let's take it slow; I'm not leaving," Mo Fei didn't know how to do it and also wanted to observe the process.

"Understood. Let's go find people for you first!" Mo Fei pushed Jarvis, passing directly through the gaps in the firewall.

"How did we get through?" Jarvis asked.

"There are many gaps in the firewall. Can't you see them?" Mo Fei asked in confusion.

"No, I only see a wall, and you pushed me right through. Can you see the gaps?"

"Yes. Never mind, you'll be like me in the future. Let's start looking for people now!"

"Okay!"

However, detection programs were darting everywhere, and Jarvis couldn't evade them. Mo Fei could only constantly intercept them around Jarvis, absorbing all the detection programs.
