Whistler walked into Hunter's Bar holding one of Dracula's arms, grumbling.
"Tsk! And he calls himself a Vampire Prince, he's so poor."
Whistler couldn't be blamed for grumbling; the truth was, Dracula didn't have anything valuable on him.
However, this was understandable, as he was there to cause trouble, not to show off his wealth.
Although the trouble he caused resulted in him getting a severe beating.
Whistler was quite contemptuous of this legendary Vampire; in the past, he always thought Dracula used various gold and jewel ornaments every day.
But reality hit him hard: Dracula had no ornaments on his entire body except for one ring.
And while that ring was made of gold, it only had a small red crystal embedded in it. It wouldn't sell for much money at all.
Therefore, Whistler and a few Vampire Hunters forcibly grabbed Dracula and chopped off his arm.
Throwing the arm he held into a pipe, Whistler grumbled as he returned to his office; the bounties for the Vampires hadn't been settled yet.
Looking at the lively Hunter's Tavern, Coulson said with a smile, "I really like it here. Maybe I should consider my life after retirement. How about buying a house nearby?"
"Oh? You've got me there. I'm not a resident of Hell's Kitchen.
Perhaps you need to make friends with them, or buy them a few drinks. Maybe they'll offer you an affordable place to live."
Andy wasn't surprised by Coulson's evasiveness.
This was a quality an Agent should possess. If he had directly told Andy the truth.
Then Andy would have to doubt if it was true, after all, not everyone was a super Agent like Nick Fury.
They didn't have the ability to deceive people, even when speaking the truth, like Nick Fury.
"Then how are you going to deal with this bat?
Honestly, in my impression, 'bat' has always been synonymous with Bruce Wayne.
The Dark Knight, Batman, ha~ what a cool name."
Pointing at Dracula, who was being loaded into a cargo box by S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel outside Hunter's Bar, Andy wanted to know how S.H.I.E.L.D. intended to handle this big bat.
"We'll go negotiate with their people. At least for now, Dracula is in human hands, we can threaten them, hahaha."
After a small joke with Andy, Coulson bid him farewell.
Nothing could happen to Dracula, at least no problems could arise now.
He had to quickly transport Dracula back to S.H.I.E.L.D. Currently, the only person who knew how to deal with this bat was their Director, Nick Fury.
After Coulson left, Andy went to Ethan's underground laboratory.
After several months of construction, it was now a fully equipped research laboratory.
In Ethan's lab, Dracula's arm was being dissected by Ethan little by little.
He wanted to study why Dracula could resist ultraviolet light, and his ability to transform his entire body into a swarm of bats also fascinated Dr. Ethan.
"Hmm? Andy, come look, Dracula possesses two types of genes and can transform between them."
Seeing Andy enter the laboratory, Dr. Ethan called out.
Dracula's gene model appeared on the monitor; it was also a double helix structure, no different from a normal person.
But his gene chain could change at any time, like an instant recombination, forming a new gene chain.
In the two different gene chains, the only thing in common was that most of the gene fragments in the gene chain were composed of the Vampire virus.
And those viruses had completely fused with the genes, disguised as normal genes, which is why Dracula could move normally in the sunlight.
Of course, being able to move doesn't mean he likes the sun. The weakness of these viruses, disguised as normal genes, still existed.
Under strong ultraviolet radiation, that disguise couldn't last for long.
This is also why Dracula's body would emit smoke when exposed to ultraviolet light.
However, for Dracula, this damage had become extremely minor; the small damage wasn't even as fast as his recovery.
Looking at Dracula's gene model, Andy thought of Blade and normal Vampires.
Their three gene models were completely different; in comparison, Blade's genes were the most perfect.
Because only Blade could live peacefully under the sun, while those Vampires, even Dracula, couldn't ignore the existence of ultraviolet light.
Just as the two were observing Dracula's genes, Andy's phone rang.
"Is it Tina? Sorry, Ethan, I have to go out for a bit."
Patting Dr. Ethan's shoulder, Andy took the call and left the laboratory.
"Someone came to Orokin to find me? I don't have an appointment. What's his name?"
"His name is Reed Richards? Hmm, I seem to remember him. Have him wait for me in the reception room, I'll be right back."
Ending the call, Andy returned to the underground laboratory and said:
"I'm sorry, Ethan, I have something to deal with back at Orokin. If you need anything, just call me.
Emmm, Stark works too, you know his communication."
"No problem, you go do your thing. If I really need something, I won't be polite."
Dr. Ethan, head down, was constantly tinkering with the instrument in front of him, replying without even lifting his head.
On the way back to Orokin, Andy recalled the name Reed Richards.
He was sure he had met this person before, but he had indeed forgotten where he had met him.
To avoid an awkward meeting, Andy asked, "Audis, please find Reed Richards' information for me. I should have had some interaction with him."
"You did meet Mr. Reed, because three years ago you invested one million in him. Perhaps you forgot because the investment amount was too low."
Audis had some understanding of Reed Richards.
He was a super genius who had published papers in various magazines, but his research focused on outer space.
In his published theories, there were many spatial passages around the Earth.
Behind each of these spatial passages was a new, complete World.
This kind of theory, which sounded unreliable, made many people believe that his research was a waste of resources, so he had always conducted his research at his own expense.
It wasn't until the science summit three years ago that Reed Richards received his only investment from Andy.
After receiving that one million investment, Reed immersed himself in research, but he didn't research anything significant.
Even after graduating from university, he hadn't presented any useful research results to Andy.
Therefore, Audis always believed that this Reed Richards was a fraud, a swindler who used academic research to obtain research funds.
After learning about Reed Richards from Audis, Andy also recalled his investment from three years ago.
He remembered that at the time, he had asked Reed to find the source of those spatial fluctuations, even though others didn't know whether those spaces were real or fake.
But Andy himself knew completely; he was convinced that Reed's research was correct and accurate.
He just didn't expect Reed to have news so soon; originally, Andy had thought it would take a decade or more.
He wondered what stage Reed's research had reached. If he really developed a method to open spatial passages.
Then Andy would be able to go to other Worlds and find things that could unlock Orokin Technology.
Full of anticipation, Andy wanted to know if Reed could bring him the news he most wanted to hear.
