Marvel Start With Reality Stone

"Hello, Mr. Qi Jun!"

Barely ten minutes after Harry Henrys left, Phil Coulson showed up! This confirmed that a swarm of intelligence agents and spies had been hovering around the Magnolia Corporation's headquarters.

"Well then, have a seat!"

Qi Jun eyed Coulson and Melinda May across from him, thinking, "It's them, alright." Bringing May along, though? Did they think her presence would make him more cooperative because he's Chinese? Ridiculous. What Americans might consider a Chinese beauty doesn't impress Qi Jun.

"I don't know if I should call you 'Superman' or 'The Invisible Man'?"

Sitting down, Coulson gave his signature American middle-aged man smile and addressed Qi Jun.

"Hmph, I don't know what you're talking about."

Unfortunately for Coulson, his usually effective charm had no impact on Qi Jun, who shrugged, showing he didn't understand.

On the surface, Qi Jun remained expressionless, but inside, he was laughing. His space ring now held some valuable new additions: the **Dark Energy Base Location Skill Book**, the **T.A.H.I.T.I. Project Location Skill Book**, the **Sandbox Base Location Skill Book**, and the **Comprehensive Agent Skills Skill Book**! Qi Jun felt elated, almost wanting to thank Nick Fury personally for his unwitting help in revealing these critical locations.

The Dark Energy Base: the storage and research site for the Tesseract. The T.A.H.I.T.I. Project: using Kree blood and genes to create resurrection serum. However, Qi Jun's real interest was to see if he could use the Kree corpse to replicate the location of the Kree Empire. The Sandbox Base: storage and disposal site for powerful artifacts and alien items seized by SHIELD.

Just wonderful! Meeting Coulson had already proven extremely fruitful.

"I feel like we've met before, haven't we?"

Coulson, oblivious to the fact that he had just exposed three crucial SHIELD bases, found Qi Jun increasingly familiar. This must be the same 'Invisible Man' who erased part of his memory.

"Sir, there's no need to hide your identity. Given your 'Superman' status, the public is very fond of you!"

Coulson continued his smooth talk, attempting to coax Qi Jun into admission.

"Do you think I don't know how the public feels about my 'Superman' identity? Love it, my foot! Thanks to Taibai, I know that the government quickly suppressed those online claims about 'Superman' saving them because surveillance devices can't capture my image."

Qi Jun knew well that the passive effect of the Reality Stone had both active and passive elements. When he first arrived in this world, the police could record his image clearly because he consciously let them. But if Qi Jun didn't care or wasn't aware of being filmed, nothing could capture his image.

"When you intervened in Harlem, there was no need to conceal your identity. Besides, the public loves heroes like Iron Man."

"Exactly!"

Coulson continued, "The explosion at the Kennedy Wharf, for instance. That had to be you. No one else could have extinguished such a massive fire so quickly."

"Heh, so you want me to admit it, huh?"

Qi Jun leaned back, arms crossed, eyeing them both. "What's your goal? Registration? Surveillance? Arrest? Control?"

Before Coulson could respond, Qi Jun pressed on, "SHIELD's usual approach, right? Anything beyond human norms must be monitored. Willing participants are fine, but those who refuse, you make arrangements for them, right?"

"Don't deny it. I know far more than you think!"

"Do you think SHIELD is some benevolent organization?"

"All this talk just to make me admit an identity. So what if I do? What if I don't?"

Qi Jun chuckled, watching them, while Coulson and May frowned deeply.

Exchanging glances, Coulson and May saw the gravity in each other's eyes. They hadn't anticipated Qi Jun's hostile attitude towards SHIELD. Without the Magnolia Corporation, they wouldn't have paid him any attention. But with Magnolia's backing, SHIELD couldn't easily move against him, not even with Nick Fury's presence.

"That's not our intention at all!"

"We just want to understand your origins, your plans in the United States, and their potential societal impacts. A simple registration, that's all."

After thinking it over, Coulson responded with a more respectful tone than before.

"Alright, I won't make it hard for you. Go back and tell Fury to come himself if he wants answers. Goodbye!"

Qi Jun sipped his tea and set the cup back on the table.
