You're just a hot-headed youth who's been kept in the dark.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron stopped questioning her. He was certain Skye hadn't lied, and continuing to ask would be pointless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rising Tide? That elusive hacker organization? Heh, if they dared to offend Aaron, they only had themselves to blame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skye froze when she saw this. \"Wha... what are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron looked at her with a half-smile. \"Since you're already here, wouldn't it be a shame to leave without looking around?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn't you want to see what we're doing? Come, I'll take you to see for yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without allowing Skye to refuse, Aaron grabbed her and walked toward the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of Skye's initial intentions, now that she had stepped through this door, she shouldn't expect to leave easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, his brain connected to nearby signals and he sent a text message to Felicia, telling her to drive the car to an uninhabited area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skye was very reluctant. She felt like the Osborn Industries Building was a gaping prehistoric beast—easy to enter, difficult to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to leave, but Aaron's hand was unshakeable, like an iron clamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skye was forced into the building, under the curious gaze of the other people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron brought her to the laboratory building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Norman again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing Skye beside Aaron, Norman glanced at her curiously and said, \"I have already contacted Dr. Helen Cho. She will arrive promptly at three o'clock this afternoon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron nodded and looked at a person in the distance who was staring in their direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Norman looked over and quickly said, \"That is the secretary of the U.S. Air Force Supreme Commander. He is here about that matter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron realized. \"Is the Air Force Commander that impatient?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Norman said, \"After all, he is old, and it is rumored that he recently contracted lung cancer. Although it has not been confirmed, it's probably true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In any case, he highly values our research and hopes to have his secretary assist us. If we need anything, we can contact him at any time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even a fighter jet?\" Aaron had a flash of inspiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He currently had many abilities, but he lacked the ability to fly. While webs were good, they were significantly inferior compared to flight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron had considered finding certain flying units to melt, such as supersonic frigatebirds or peregrine falcons. But comparatively, if he could get a fighter jet directly, that would clearly be better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Norman was stunned, then thought for a moment and said, \"No problem. Are there any other requests?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron said without hesitation, \"The sooner, the better, and the more advanced, the better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Norman nodded. He turned around, and exchanged a few words with the person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skye rolled her eyes. \"Can't you tell? An Air Force General couldn't possibly agree to such an outrageous request.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would be equivalent to treason. Surely the brave and fearless General wouldn't accept this request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron said mysteriously, \"That's not necessarily true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, the man walked over and enthusiastically shook Aaron's hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Aaron, I heard from Mr. Norman that you currently lack a vehicle suitable for your status. When General Ronald heard this, he immediately felt that an outstanding individual like you needs a ride that is absolutely fantastic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For example... a fighter jet. We are willing to provide you with a fighter jet as your personal vehicle. It definitely won't be inferior to Mr. Stark's armor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Skye's shocked, surprised, and disbelieving gaze, the secretary continued, \"So, Mr. Aaron, do you require the higher performance F-22, or the faster F-15?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, we also have the faster YF-12A interceptor and the Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft, but considering those are decades-old relics, they might not suit your status.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! You can't do this! Th... this is treason.\" Skye felt her worldview shatter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this still the military she remembered? Blatant treason?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary looked at Skye suspiciously, as if asking, 'Is this woman not one of us?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ignore her.\" Aaron shook his head. \"Let's continue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary nodded, thought for a moment, and said, \"Madam, Mr. Aaron is the most outstanding individual in the U.S., as well as a major taxpayer and a patriot. Please stop slandering us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are merely representing the Air Force to express our regards to Mr. Aaron.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This utterly ridiculous statement left Skye dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh no, the U.S. is finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron thought for a moment and said, \"I want them all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary froze. A slightly aged voice came through his headset. \"Agree to his request.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary immediately returned to normal. \"No problem, we are happy to serve you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please thank General Ronald for me. This afternoon, Norman will deliver a gift to him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron glanced at Skye and added, \"This is an early Christmas present, a unique and truly perfect gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe General Ronald will be so happy he'll feel ten years younger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary could feel the heavy breathing coming through his earpiece.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was wreathed in smiles as he said, \"Then thank you for your generosity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skye was dumbfounded. I need to report this, they are blatantly making an under-the-table deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Christmas present? It's only freaking May. You should at least use a logical excuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron and the secretary had another friendly exchange for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, Aaron was conversing with the Air Force Commander, Ronald. Both parties were extremely satisfied with this cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skye, who witnessed all of this, had dull eyes, looking like a walking corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, under the signal of General Ronald, the secretary subtly reminded him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you have needs, tanks, individual weapons, and artillery can also be considered. Even Marine warships can be slowly negotiated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are all patriots, there's no need to be so formal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Air Force doesn't have them, but the Marine and Army do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone is human and has needs, we each take what we require.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, wait, it should be called military cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Aaron instantly transformed into a U.S. Air Force Military advisor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Osborn Industries also became an important partner of the military.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Osborn Industries is different from Hammer Industries and Stark Industries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They will not provide any military industrial order cooperation, nor will they help the military produce even a single weapon or piece of ammunition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They only serve the upper echelon of the military. These people truly represent the military.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the entire process, this secretary was extremely warm and polite, unconsciously walking one step slower than Aaron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only at the very end that he casually reminded him, \"Mr. Aaron, please forgive my presumption, but your secretary might need some proper training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't misunderstand, I don't mean anything else. I'm just saying that our generals are also very knowledgeable in this area. If there's a chance, you can discuss it with our generals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secretary showed a smile that all men understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing this, Skye completely gave up on the military.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These scoundrels in the military, who take taxpayers' money but fiercely profit for themselves, even selling off major national assets, were already marked with an X in Skye's heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to expose them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These parasites, from top to bottom, should all be purged.\u003C\u002Fp>",1217,"2026-06-05T16:52:18.861Z",1,"novelbin.me","c9ecbd580809601cc1e8883babc3fdf547a44179d7dea3030770bcd42f34a659","marvel-the-devourer-chapter-33","marvel-the-devourer-chapter-129",363,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-the-devourer-cover.jpg"]
