Black Widow Arrives

Future Technology Company was struggling to find volunteers, making it impossible to conduct human trials.

After all, human experimentation couldn't be handled recklessly. No one knew what might happen.

Fortunately, S.H.I.E.L.D. had plenty of disabled personnel...

After waiting several days, they finally brought people over.

Li Wei paused. He would do another ten-pull later.

"Have Coulson come over."

He couldn't be bothered to go himself, so he had Coulson come over to talk.

Li Wei had neither a favorable nor unfavorable impression of S.H.I.E.L.D. It had nothing to do with him, after all. As long as they could make him money and provide convenience, he didn't care about anything else.

Just like now, S.H.I.E.L.D. could easily bring him people willing to undergo human experiments.

Li Wei could make money too. It killed two birds with one stone.

"Ding."

A short while later, the elevator arrived on that floor.

Coulson walked in with a woman.

The woman had curly red hair, wore a skintight uniform, and had a seductive gaze and a perfect figure.

Li Wei ignored Coulson and said, "Who is this? The assistant you arranged for me?"

Of course he knew who she was. She was far too conspicuous.

"Natasha Romanoff."

Coulson smiled. "She's here to handle contact with Mr. Li. I may be busy in the future."

That was great. Although Coulson was honest enough,

Li Wei still preferred women.

"Li Wei."

"Natasha."

Li Wei extended his hand. Black Widow naturally couldn't refuse and stepped forward to shake it.

Then the two looked at each other and smiled.

Coulson pretended not to notice, thinking to himself, No wonder Agent Hill was somewhat reluctant to send Natasha over.

Black Widow had only joined S.H.I.E.L.D. recently, after the Battle of Budapest.

The agency did not trust her much, so they simply sent her to make contact with Li Wei.

"If you don't let go, I'm going to flip you over."

Natasha Romanoff said with a smile at the corners of her lips.

"Perfect. I'm about to spar with Tony Stark. Want to give it a try?"

The moment Li Wei finished speaking, Natasha dove straight into his arms without another word.

Just as Li Wei was feeling puzzled, she leaped up and sat directly on his shoulders, clamping his head between her legs.

It made Li Wei think she was showing off her weapons...

Because they were right in front of him.

"Ahem."

Li Wei patted her thigh, telling her to get down.

Natasha did not knock him over. Instead, she slid straight down and glanced at him with a smile.

"With your skill level, you'd have more than enough to deal with that playboy."

"Your legs are impressive too."

Li Wei praised her as well, and the two began exchanging commercial compliments.

After all, she was Black Widow, the Red Room's finest agent.

"How many people did you bring over?"

"Ten."

Coulson said, "This is only the first batch. If you need more, we can find more."

"Then let's go to the laboratory."

Li Wei wiped away some sweat and headed over with Eve and 2B.

Black Widow Natasha sized up the two women. 2B gave her a strange feeling, and Eve was even more obvious—her proportions were abnormal.

Could a woman really have a figure like that?

Black Widow Natasha compared Eve's figure with her own and found herself completely outclassed.

Eve truly had a figure that was curvy in front and perky in back. It did not conform to human anatomy, but the visual effect was explosive.

Dr. Otto's laboratory.

Ten disabled S.H.I.E.L.D. agents had already arrived.

They all had serious disabilities, mostly missing arms or legs.

Otherwise, they would not have eagerly volunteered for the experiment.

For them, having a chance to return to normal was better than living a life worse than death like this.

Every time Li Wei saw this, he felt his merits were boundless.

What scientist cared about the people as much as he did?

"Dr. Otto, how are the preparations?"

Li Wei walked over.

Dr. Otto's four mechanical arms were now almost always at his side.

He wore a "non-invasive" Brain-Computer Interface on his head, like a simple helmet, and the four mechanical arms obeyed him perfectly.

Dr. Otto used two mechanical arms to brace himself against the floor and lowered his body.

"I've run the simulation with Red Queen countless times. I guarantee there won't be any problems."

Dr. Otto could barely hide his excitement.

He hoped the experiment would succeed so he could install an Invasive Brain-Computer Interface on himself.

That was even more terrifying than a semi-invasive one.

An Invasive Brain-Computer Interface required cranial surgery, with electrodes implanted directly into the cerebral cortex or ventricles.

Such a Brain-Computer Interface would offer faster reaction speeds and greater processing capacity, and it could even have a "chip" implanted into it.

Of course...

The downside was that once it overloaded, the user's head would burn out.

That was why hackers in the Cyberpunk World got their brains fried so easily.

"Then shall we begin the experiment?"

Li Wei looked over at everyone. No one objected.

The first test subject was an agent missing an arm. He lay down on a hospital bed and was pushed into the medical room by medical staff, where surgeons were waiting.

For the operation, Future Technology Company had signed a contract with a major hospital.

Unfortunately, Li Wei had not found anyone named Strange.

After asking around, he learned the man was a neurosurgeon. The specialty did not match.

"This time, we'll be performing a semi-invasive procedure. We only need to implant the electrodes beneath the skull, against the dura mater. They won't penetrate the cerebral cortex, so it should be quite simple."

Dr. Otto explained it to everyone.

Coulson had not expected it to be so "dangerous." He looked at Dr. Otto and asked, "Can't they use the one you're wearing on your head?"

"No."

Dr. Otto immediately shook his head. "This non-invasive type can be affected by many factors. Even hair can affect the speed of neural transmission. Once that sense of 'lag' appears, it will have a huge impact."

"What if it happens at a critical moment? Think about how dangerous that would be."

Coulson and Black Widow Natasha both nodded at those words.

Natasha Romanoff folded her arms and looked around the laboratory.

"What are you looking at?"

Li Wei was somewhat curious.

This was Widow.

And compared to Scarlett Johansson, the actress from his previous life, her legs were a little longer, and she stood around 1.7 meters tall.

She had practically made up for Scarlett's only flaw.

"Nothing. I just thought of some unpleasant things."

Natasha shook her head.

In the laboratory, she could not help thinking of the experiments the Red Room had conducted on them.

They had left her infertile, unable to ever become a mother.

Thinking of something, she asked curiously, "That serum you advertised—can it regrow any organ?"

Li Wei immediately knew what she was thinking, but he was not sure either.

"It still needs testing. In theory, it should be possible."

If it could regrow limbs, growing an organ should not be much of a problem, right?

Upon hearing this, Black Widow's expression did not change. It was impossible to tell whether she truly cared.

"Ding!"

At that moment, the laboratory lights flickered, and Dr. Otto became excited.

"The operation is over."

Very soon, the doctor came out and nodded at everyone.

"The operation was a success. He'll need a little while before he wakes up."
