Chapter 41: You Also Don

, The Genie Starting from Marvel

Frank and Johnson ultimately didn't wait for the peeper in the dark, but this added to the worry in their hearts. Enemies on the surface are not scary; the poisonous snakes hidden in the dark are the most fatal.

That night, in the Stark president's office, Stane sat in his seat, thinking about something. Ever since the last charity donation meeting, Stane discovered that Tony's opinions and suspicions toward him were growing larger and larger. The assassination in Afghanistan seemed to be on the verge of not being able to be hidden.

Actually, after Tony escaped safely, Stane had already foreseen that there would be such a day. The good news was that this day came far later than he had guessed. During this period, Tony had been deceiving himself, but this kind of deception would be completely crushed as long as the facts appeared.

"Tony, deceiving yourself is not a good habit. I, as an uncle, should also teach you other life principles."

Stane made up his mind to find an opportunity to completely solve Tony. Of course, this time was best after the scientists under him completed the imitation work of the arc reactor. As long as he obtained the full technology of that small arc reactor, Stane had the confidence to lead Stark Industries Group to sing all the way.

Tony Stark was like a goose that could lay golden eggs. This time, the golden egg he laid was simply too big, so big that after Stane got his hands on it, he could completely abandon this goose, and he didn't need to endure all the trouble this goose brought and his own strange temper.

"You say a lot, Mr. Stane. Meaningless emotions will only affect human evolution." A gloomy voice came from the corner of the office.

"Who!" Stane stood up in fright, his hand gripping a sonic emitter tightly. This was a weapon Stane prepared to deal with Tony Stark that hadn't been approved for successful listing.

"Introduce myself, Woody, Pope of the Secret Prayer Church." Woody opened his hands toward Stane. Endless darkness spread out from behind him, directly covering the entire office. All door and window gaps were wrapped by black, unknown objects.

Whoosh!

Stane decisively pressed the launch button in his hand. A circle of sound waves hit Woody, yet it didn't have any paralyzing effect.

"It seems you are not as you said, having discarded all useless emotions. You are the same as the person in your mouth, deceiving yourself." Woody showed a compassionate expression toward Stane. The surrounding darkness squirmed, seeming to want to forgive Stane's sins. The method of forgiveness was to send him to see the Lord.

Stane swallowed his saliva, forcing himself to calm down, and sat back in his chair. "Mr. Woody, coming to find me must have some matter..."

For a cult leader, Stane didn't dare to be arrogant. This kind of person is crazy, not to mention this cult leader also had some kind of special ability.

Stane's words seemed to remind Woody, letting his brain, which was in a state of madness all day, recover a bit of clarity. After the darkness stopped approaching Stane, Woody took a photo out of his bosom and placed it in front of Stane.

On the photo was a scene of three people drinking tea and chatting in a coffee shop. Stane only recognized one of them; it was the little security guard Tony Stark gave a check to today.

"What do you want to explain? What does it represent?" Stane looked up and asked.

"Tom, that is, this person, codename Daywalker, half-vampire, peripheral agent of the Department of Homeland Strategic Defense and Logistics." Woody pressed his hand on the photo and began to introduce them one by one.

"Frank, former Punisher, now Saint Light Practitioner, key concern personnel of the Department of Homeland Strategic Defense and Logistics, powerful Saint Light warrior."

As Woody spoke, his finger moved to Johnson's face, and a burnt smell immediately came from the photo. "Sinner, a despicable thief who stole the Lord's power!"

Stane moved his butt back a bit. It was very clear that just from Woody's introduction, he could see who Woody's target was.

"Under their watch and protection, you can no longer kill Tony Stark." Woody eased his emotions and said coldly toward Stane.

"It's just a bodyguard, I have plenty of ways to solve him. So what if he's a half-vampire? I've killed and studied purebloods." Stane retorted with full toughness. The existence of vampires was not a secret to top billionaires like them.

Woody, seeing this, took out a tablet computer and placed it in front of Stane. On it was the video of Frank annihilating the Hand. "Now?"

Stane was silent. His actions toward Tony could only be assassination-based; killing by force was impossible, and others wouldn't support him at all.

"I think, Mr. Stane, you also don't want to see Tony Stark make a comeback, do you."

Stane listened to these words and looked up. "What ideas do you have?"

Woody smiled slightly; the plan was a go.

Frank, who was sleeping soundly in his own bed, was suddenly awakened from his dream by a chill, drenched in sweat, as if he had undergone a violent bed exercise.

After waking up, Frank suddenly discovered that his side mission had been unlocked.

Side Mission: Facing the Darkness

Mission Introduction: Under the gloomy night, the darkness has gained new followers. They have a plan, and this plan will attempt to swallow your friend. Strike them painfully, destroy their plan; this is your mission.

Mission Difficulty: Normal

Recommended Minimum Level: 9

Mission Completion Reward: 2 Wish Points

Mission Failure Penalty: Mission Failure

Looking at the updated side mission, Frank became nervous. Without a doubt, the friend in the mission introduction was Johnson.

Such a mission indeed didn't need any mission penalty; everything brought about after Johnson's death would be enough to punish Frank.

Frank simply rushed into Johnson's room in the middle of the night; this person didn't lock the door when sleeping.

He pulled Johnson out of bed, and Johnson was still dazed, only to be given a pile of things by Frank. In short, the core idea was one: from now until the side mission ended, he absolutely could not leave this Cabin with special protection!

Johnson first agreed, and then after Frank left, he locked the door from the inside, reset the ritual magic for auxiliary divination, and then stood in the middle of the magic circle himself.

"Frank will be in danger because of me..."

The pocket watch swung clockwise in the air.

"Heh, I knew it." Johnson sneered, raising his middle finger. "Genie, you really have quite the wicked sense of humor."

Johnson believed that if he hid in the Cabin, there would likely be no more danger, but Frank was different. He would definitely find ways to completely solve the enemy, and wouldn't the danger come then?

"F***, soldiers come, block with generals; water comes, cover with earth. Sleep!" Johnson said and lay on the bed, his two eyes staring like light bulbs. ===== CHAPTER 42 =====
