Everything You Can Think Of, I Learned!

"Boss, I failed. Please punish me!" Back at the manor, 2B knelt on one knee before Loren, head lowered like a well-behaved girl who had done something wrong.

If outsiders saw this scene, they would probably be stunned speechless. After all, 2B's reputation outside was terrifying; she was regarded as a death god.

Yet such a being was as docile before Loren as the girl next door. How could that not shock people?

But to Loren, this was perfectly normal. 2B was a death god outside, but before him, she was his most loyal maid. He could make her do anything for him.

Moreover, 2B's charm and tenderness would only ever be displayed before him. Outsiders would never see them.

It was only because of current technological limitations that he could not yet create an artificial flesh-and-blood body for 2B. But once he could give her a physical body, 2B would become his perfect companion.

How could he possibly bear to punish her?

Besides, 2B had already done her best. The mission's failure was not her fault, but the fault of those opponents.

"Failure is failure. It's not your fault." Loren waved his hand and spoke without concern.

It would have been best if they could get information about the mastermind from Kingpin, but if they could not, it did not matter much. Things had reached this point, and the force behind Kingpin would definitely not let the matter rest.

Based on his guess, the other side would certainly strike at him again. He would still have a chance to uncover the hand behind the scenes, though the process might be more difficult.

But it did not matter. When the boat reached the bridge, it would straighten itself out. Some things just had to be left to take their course.

"Thank you, Boss. Next time, I will definitely complete the mission successfully." 2B bowed gratefully to Loren, then projected a photograph of a strange symbol onto the floor.

"Boss, although I did not find out who the mastermind was, I saw this symbol on that man. I investigated it. It is the emblem of Hydra. Please take a look."

Looking at the strange symbol projected on the floor, Loren's expression could not help turning grim, though he had long suspected it.

In fact, from the moment he had transmigrated into this world, he had suspected that the entire matter was connected to Hydra.

After all, he was now in the Marvel Universe, and nearly every major event in the Marvel Universe was connected to Hydra. When in doubt, look for Hydra—it was not merely a joke.

Of course, before this, he had no concrete evidence proving that everything was connected to Hydra. But now that Hydra's distinctive symbol had appeared, it directly confirmed that his guess had been correct.

Under such circumstances, it would have been strange if his expression looked good.

Even he had to admit that Hydra was an extremely troublesome existence. Its power was immense, and its intelligence network was tangled and intricate. Even a financial behemoth like the Morgan Family might not be its match.

That was also why it had the confidence to reach its hand into the Morgan Family. If he were still the previous Loren Morgan, he would probably only be waiting to die.

Unfortunately, he was not the original Loren. He was Loren the transmigrator, and he possessed a powerful cheat.

Naturally, he would not sit around waiting for death. But Hydra was far too vast, with countless branches. Completely purging it was not something that could be done overnight.

Not to mention anything else, even an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. had failed to wipe out Hydra after so many years of effort. Not only had it failed to eliminate Hydra, but the entirety of S.H.I.E.L.D. had even been infiltrated by them and turned into Snake Shield.

This showed just how difficult Hydra was to deal with.

Therefore, now that he understood his opponent was Hydra, he had to prepare for a long-term war.

At that thought, his desire to become stronger grew even more urgent.

"Looks like I need to speed up work on the Batman Suit." Loren muttered to himself. He was currently building an improved Batman Suit, and it was also the only means he had at present to increase his combat power.

But at that moment, 2B suddenly took out a vial of green serum from her pocket and held it out before him.

"Oh, right, Boss. This is the Enhancement Serum I seized from Kingpin. As long as someone injects this vial, it can greatly improve their physique. However, this is a weakened version, so its effects only last for twenty-four hours.

"But I believe that with your intelligence, Boss, you will definitely be able to optimize it. I offer it to you now. Once you improve it, you may gain strength not inferior to that of us General-Purpose Combat Robots."

2B offered up the weakened Enhancement Serum with both hands, her face full of respect.

As Loren looked at the Enhancement Serum 2B had handed over, an ecstatic expression appeared on his face.

Because at that very moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.

[Congratulations, Host. For participating in the pursuit of the true mastermind, killing a participant, and seizing the weakened Enhancement Serum from the enemy, you are rewarded with the formula for the 'Perfected Super-Soldier Serum.']

[Note: The Perfected Super-Soldier Serum is a more stable Enhancement Serum than the Super-Soldier Serum taken by Captain America. It can increase the user's physical constitution by more than three times. The exact multiplier varies from person to person and involves a certain degree of probability. Most importantly, this serum has no side effects whatsoever and will not amplify the traits of human nature.]

"Perfected Super-Soldier Serum? Hahaha, talk about perfect timing!" He had just been thinking about increasing his combat power as quickly as possible, yet 2B immediately brought him such a great gift.

How could he not be delighted?

As expected of his good wife. She was practically his lucky star!

"2B, come here. Let me give you a good kiss."

Loren pulled 2B into his arms and gave her cheek a firm kiss.

2B seemingly had not expected her creator to pull her over and kiss her directly. Her face immediately flushed red like that of a real person, making her look breathtakingly beautiful.

"Boss, people online say that only couples kiss. Boss, does this mean we are acting like a couple?" 2B tilted her head and looked at Loren like a curious child.

"Uh, how should I put this? It's a little complicated." Hearing 2B's question, Loren felt somewhat embarrassed and did not know how to answer.

But just then, 2B suddenly held his face in her hands, and her soft lips quickly pressed against his. His eyes widened at once.

"2B, where did you learn these things? I don't remember installing this skill in you!" Loren looked at 2B in astonishment.

"Boss, have you forgotten that I have autonomous learning capabilities?"

"So you learned it yourself? Then aside from this, what else did you learn?"

"Everything you can think of, I learned!"

"..."

"Boss, I want to become human!"

"!!!"
