Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 68: Hawke, who deserves thanks to Iron Man (Second update, earth-shattering!)

In the sunlight, if you look closely, it looks like blood shining like stars is slowly being drawn out of the body and then flowing into the blood bag.

Hawke sat in a chair, squeezing the grip ball in his hand while looking at the Statue of Liberty standing on Liberty Island in the distance.

Anna stared at the blood gathered in the blood bag without blinking, with an expression of worshiping a holy object.

The blood in the blood bag shone like diamonds sparkling in the sunlight.

at this time.

The phone rings.

Anna took out her phone, glanced at the incoming call, apologized to Hawke who was drawing blood, and then walked aside.

Sitting aside, she looked very much like Gwen who accompanied Hawke to draw blood. She glanced at Anna who walked to a nearby place to answer the phone, then glanced at Hawke next to her and lowered her voice.

"So, you exchanged 400 milliliters of blood for a cart of iron meteorites?"

"Ah."

Hawke nodded slightly and looked at Gwen: "Do you think I made a profit or a loss?"

Gwen opened her mouth.

From the perspective of US dollars, there is no doubt that Hawke made a profit, and a huge profit.

After all, how much can you make from selling blood?

According to the quotation offered by New York Blood Products Company last week, 400 milliliters of blood can be exchanged for US$150.

But what about iron meteorites?
Gwen just checked and found out that last week, a 35-kilogram iron meteorite was sold at an auction house in New York for US$210,000.

If converted according to the price of 35 kilograms equals 210,000 US dollars.

The value of the 30-ton iron meteorite is estimated to be over 179 million US dollars.

but……

Gwen frowned and looked at Hawke.

"Your blood is different, Hawke, your blood..."

"Otherwise."

Hawke looked at Gwen with a smile and said, "I won't sell my blood anymore. Return the meteorite to Anna, and then I'll go find another meteorite myself tomorrow. It's only thirty tons, right? It should be enough to plunder the meteorites collected by Osborn and Stark. I don't even need to sell my blood. What do you think?"

Gwen couldn't help but open her mouth as she listened to Hawke's answer.

next second.

She looked at the smile on Hawke's lips, realized that he was teasing her, rolled her eyes at him, and asked in a low voice: "But you know your blood, aren't you afraid of Anna..."

When she said this, Gwen kept silent because Anna, who was not far away, had finished her call.

Hawke knew what Gwen wanted to say, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've already made a deal with Anna. Just don't use my blood to clone. And don't worry, it's just this once. Besides, selling blood is more in line with the definition of a good person than stealing it yourself."

Gwen listened to Hawke's answer and didn't want to talk anymore.

Or sell blood.

Or be a robber.

Forget it.

It’s better to sell blood. At least you can support yourself, which is better than robbery.

Gwen thought to herself.

at the same time.

Anna walked back here after finishing the call, a hint of joy on her face. She looked at Hawke and said, "The latest news is that Tony Stark's private plane, which flew to Bangalore, Bharat yesterday, has taken off and is expected to arrive at the private airport located 30 kilometers away from Lake Culver at 2 pm on the 22nd."

Number twenty-two.

Isn't this today?

A gleam flashed in Hawke's eyes.

"Confirmed?"

"Confirmed."

Anna handed Hawke a palm-sized tablet.

into the eye.

The airport surveillance captured the scene of Bruce Banner boarding a private plane.

Hawke laughed, then seemed to remember something and looked at Gwen: "It's alright, we don't need to ask Helen for leave on Christmas Eve." Christmas Eve is on the 24th.

He originally thought that Hulk would not show up until Christmas Eve. If he showed up on that day and Gwen had to go with him, he would have to ask Helen for leave.

When she came here just this morning, Gwen was still thinking about the reason to ask Helen for leave on Christmas Eve.

This is just great.

no need.

They will arrive this afternoon. If they move quickly, they might be able to return to New York by evening.

Gwen didn't answer, but was a little curious: "Tony Stark's private plane, didn't we hear that Tony Stark was missing?"

Yes.

Tony Stark has disappeared again.

However, the last time he disappeared was in the Middle East, and this time he disappeared in Los Angeles.

And this time, Tony Stark's Malibu ocean view mansion was blown up. All this was because Tony Stark declared war on the Mandarin last week.

Of course.

Hawke knew that the Mandarin who created the Extremis virus was not the real Mandarin, but an actor.

The real Mandarin is probably still busy trying to resurrect his wife at this moment, so he has no time to care about this matter.

It was just like Hawke heard the news last week, laughed it off and ignored it.

The same goes for Anna.

"Tony Stark is missing, but the affairs of Stark Corporation haven't stagnated. The private jet issue should have been decided before the holiday, but we still have a guess."

"what?"

"Bruce Banner came here early. It's very likely that he learned about Tony Stark's disappearance and came to help."

“…It’s possible.”

Hawke listened to Anna's speculation and nodded thoughtfully.

next second.

He chuckled, shook his head, and returned the tablet to Anna: "Then if I have the chance, I will thank Tony Stark."

If it weren't for the scene where Tony Stark disappeared, Bruce Banner would probably not come until Christmas Eve.

But now, Iron Man is missing and Hulk has come up early.

From this perspective, Hawke should indeed thank Iron Man.

Anna smiled slightly and said nothing. After putting away the tablet, she looked at the blood bag that was almost done collecting, and quickly helped Hawk remove the blood-drawing needle.

The moment the needle was pulled out, the needle wound on Hawk's arm healed almost in the blink of an eye.

Hawke adjusted his cuffs and stood up from the chair he was sitting on.

Anna also put the blood bag into a portable low-temperature storage safe, like a treasure.

After the lock clicked shut, Anna completed this series of operations and a relaxed expression appeared on her face.

Anna then looked up at Hawke.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. I always treat my friends this way."

Hawke smiled slightly, then glanced at Gwen beside him. Without saying anything, he took Gwen's hand and walked towards the yellow Corolla parked not far away.

Anna stood there, watching Hawke leave.

Gwen opened the car door, got in, started the car, and looked at Hawke sitting in the passenger seat. Although she knew where the next destination was, she still asked a question.

"Where do we go now?"

"Culver!"

Hawke glanced sideways at Gwen and smiled.

"revenge!"

"..."
