The lights illuminated the entire laboratory as if it were daytime.
Leo had a rare moment of leisure. He neither put on the mechanical tentacle arm nor used mechanical force. Instead, he only used a wrench and a screwdriver to manually reassemble Stim's limbs and signal transceiver.
This is of course very inefficient, but Leo works meticulously and without any rush.
Half an hour later, he tightened the last screw, threw the screwdriver in his hand into the tool box at his feet, and said while clapping his hands:
"Done!"
"Buzz~"
Stim waved his pair of multifunctional robotic arms, and the roller legs turned smoothly, running happily in the spacious laboratory.
Leo smiled slightly, bent down to pick up the tool box, and walked back to the workbench.
Slowly sitting on the chair in front of the workbench, Leo stretched out, waved his hands to push aside the debris on the workbench, and then ordered:
"Stim, don't be crazy! Come over and tidy up the things on the table, throw away the garbage, and recycle the tools."
Stim quickly ran over pushing a trolley, his big eyes flashing, carefully sorting the things on the table into categories, and then carefully putting everything back to its original place.
The place where you should stay.
Although Stim has gained his true consciousness, he still works hard and is never lazy.
Leo smiled knowingly again, and then took out the thumb-sized Viper sixth-generation armor from his pocket and placed it on the empty workbench.
With a wave of his hand, the armor returned to its normal size. The storage slot on its chest automatically popped open, and three flat boxes the size of fingernails flew out of the air and landed in Leo's right hand.
He waved his other hand to collect the Viper Sixth Generation Armor and put it into his pocket. Then he stared at the three boxes in the palm of his right hand, with fire and joy in his eyes.
The total value of these three small boxes is more than three billion US dollars!
Truly priceless.
Leo looked up at the laboratory and found that although the laboratory was very spacious, it was still not enough to hold all the materials in the box.
Even if we use the entire underground floor of the El Building to store these materials, we can barely do it.
Although this box was only three hundred cubic meters in size when it was first built, it now holds far more than this volume!
You know, these supplies are used by more than a thousand people and dozens of caves in the Hydra base.
This is the magic of Pym particles. They not only have the power to control the sky and the earth, but also can perform ancient magic similar to spreading beans to form soldiers. They can even be used as the legendary Sumeru mustard seeds to bring all things within a square inch.
Pym particles are so versatile that they are praised as the darkest black technology in the Marvel universe.
Leo thought, if Tony Stark had the method of making Pym Particles and made good use of it, it wouldn't be a big problem to defeat the Purple Potato Essence!
The laboratory can no longer hold these materials, and Leo feels it is time to open his own second base.
And if he wants to build a mechanical army next, he will need a lot of work space, and the El Building is no longer enough!
But where is the right place to place the second base?
Leo began to spread his thoughts.
His current flying speed is extremely fast, and he can reach all parts of the United States in a short time, which is about the same time as going out for a walk.
Therefore, the whole United States has his choice.
But in order to echo the El Building, Leo felt that it was best not to choose a place too far away.
Why not choose the suburbs of New York City?
The land there was very cheap, and Leo felt that he could build a large base without spending a lot of money.
Moreover, when the base is completed, it seems that like the idea in Ant-Man II, the base can be reduced into a trolley box, and you can carry it wherever you go!
Leo nodded subconsciously, very satisfied with his decision.
Then it’s settled, let Old Tom get busy with this matter at dawn!
Thinking of this, Leo suddenly felt sleepy and couldn't help but stretch.
I have experienced so many things today.
It ranged from blocking missiles with bare hands to tightening screws with hands. It lasted nearly twenty hours without a break.
Normally, he doesn't feel tired after working continuously for twenty hours, but today it was really tiring and strenuous, and Leo felt that he needed to take a good rest first.
So Leo stuffed the three boxes into his pocket, turned around and went back to the laboratory bedroom to sleep.
…
It's daybreak, and it's still a sunny day today.
The weather in New York City has slowly started to get hotter. You can't tell it from the men, but if you look at the women passing by, you'll notice that there are more and more skirts walking on the street every day.
Yesterday's piercing air raid sirens did not seem to bother the people of New York. Those who woke up were still doing their own thing as usual.
Of course, it is also possible that they have long been used to it.
Leo naturally got up earlier. At this time, he was standing on the unfinished large Ark reactor wearing a robotic arm, working unhurriedly.
Suddenly, Stim's voice echoed in the empty underground level:
"Buzz~ Master, I received a call from Old Tom. Do you want to answer it?"
Leo happened to be looking for Old Tom, so Old Tom called early and agreed with him.
So he stopped what he was doing and asked Stim to transfer the call.
As soon as the connection was connected, Old Tom couldn't wait to say:
"My boss Leo, you finally answered the phone!"
"What's wrong?" Leo was confused.
"Uh...it's nothing. Didn't the entire city sound the air raid siren yesterday? When the company employees evacuated to the nearest air raid shelter, they couldn't find you.
And no one answered my call, Mr. Parker, Mr. Murdoch and Boss Bucky are all very anxious."
Old Tom was actually more anxious, otherwise he wouldn't have been the first to call in the morning, but he was embarrassed to say it.
Leo was in a daze when he heard this. He was already able to block missiles with his bare hands, so he naturally never thought that Old Tom would worry about this.
In fact, as an ordinary person, it is normal for Old Tom to be worried like this.
It seems that he, Leo, has broken away from the ranks of ordinary people, and the things he worries about are different.
However, Leo still felt warm when he felt the kindness of others, so he smiled knowingly and said:
"Don't worry about my safety. I can fly. Even missiles may not be able to catch up with me."
Old Tom on the other end of the phone laughed twice, obviously not believing that Leo could really fly faster than a missile.
Leo said again,
"Old Tom, I just have something to ask you. Are you at home or at the company now?"
"Boss, it's only seven o'clock in the morning. Of course I'm at home!" Old Tom yawned and continued, "I just got up and I have to take little Eric to school in a while."
In fact, Old Tom was still trying to call Leo in the middle of the night last night, so he slept very late and is still very sleepy now.
But Natasha asked him to pick Eric up in the morning and evening, so he had to struggle to get up.
"That's it, I'll go home to find you now. I'll bring back some food along the way. Let's have breakfast together. Remember to call Bucky and Eric."
Leo bought some simple breakfast at the entrance of the company and walked back home.
At this time, the three people in the family, including Bucky, had just gotten up.
Leo waited patiently for them to finish washing, and then had breakfast with them, chatting while eating.
"Old Tom, you go help me find a warehouse today and rent it for half a year. I'm eager to use it. The location doesn't matter, the key is that it's big enough and quiet enough."
Although Leo already had plans to build a second base, major construction work could not be completed in a short time. In order not to waste precious time, Leo planned to rent a warehouse to make ends meet.
Old Tom nodded when he heard this and said it would be done.
Then Leo asked Old Tom to look for a large piece of land in the suburbs of New York City recently, and he was going to build a brand new base.
Old Tom briefly inquired about Leo's requirements, then patted his chest and promised that he would leave the job to him and promise to do it well.
By this time, several people had already finished their breakfast.
Old Tom went to the room upstairs, helped Eric take out his schoolbag, and then took Eric away first.
There are no good schools in Hell's Kitchen. Who among the capable teachers is willing to teach in this hellish place? It's a thankless job!
So naturally none of Dr. Octavius's students became teachers near Hell's Kitchen.
Therefore, the school he found for Eric was in Queens. It was a bit far away, so he needed to be picked up and dropped off every day.
At Eric's current age, Leo chose to send him directly to junior high school, and Eric had no objection.
Later, Peter said that the middle school Eric attended was the school where he went to school. From this point of view, the teaching quality of this middle school was definitely good.
