Chapter 6 - Duval Is Worth the Price!

Dum Dum Dugan sorted through the shared memory archives in his mind, found the information uploaded by who-knows-which-numbered clone, and honestly said, "As far as I know, he's nobody's man. I haven't been able to find any traces of other forces interfering with any of his actions."

"Great, then let's re-analyze the report you gave me: You spent a week confirming that this guy, who can manufacture biochemical weapons using unknown means, openly trades with Blade, and attacks vampires, the biggest suspicious point about him is... he might prefer raw meat to cooked meat?"

Dum Dum Dugan forced a smile, "Would you believe me if I said that wasn't my conclusion?"

He knew that this was the kind of answer you'd only give if your brain had been slammed in a door.

"I believe you, and I have even more reason to suspect that the person standing in front of me and trying to fool me isn't your level ten main body, but a clone whose actual level isn't even as good as a level two agent." Fury stared at the Dum Dum Dugan in front of him.

This guy was even too lazy to mention the guess that 'the cute animals he controls like to eat raw things'.

Running into a clone who didn't want to work was just bad luck, but running into a reporter who didn't want to use their brain was truly terrifying.

Dum Dum Dugan lowered his head and thought, probably trying to figure out how to trick Fury into believing the memory in his shared archive that was full of loopholes.

"Alright, I have a general idea of what's going on, tell your main body, you can try to take your attention away from... that a little bit."

"Okay, but I can't guarantee that the main body will read the information I upload in time."

Fury's forehead throbbed, thankfully he had also injected a weakened version of the Super Serum, otherwise he would have had a cerebral hemorrhage.

"So, according to the existing intelligence, plus the information provided by Blade, this person can cooperate, but cannot be trusted for the time being. He's a legitimate company owner, exploiting legal loopholes, claiming to be conducting biological experiments and about to develop a special medicine to cure mutants... who approved this application reason?" Fury asked.

It was just idiotic no matter how you looked at it.

Dum Dum Dugan scratched his temple, trying to collect useful memories, wondering what kind of lie he should make up to prove that he was a talented clone.

"Because there are a lot of people using similar rhetoric to scam government funding recently."

A man walked over, as a man who had received thousands of protagonists, he had a calmness about him, and he walked over with a strange smile on his face.

Coulson said, "Compared to those scammers, as a graduate of genetics from the University of Zurich, he can at least produce a few solid papers to decorate his facade. As it turns out, he didn't get the money, he only got a piece of land as an experimental site, but what's interesting is that there is indeed a remittance of funds to Weyland Biochemical Company on the government's accounts."

"Leeches, shameful!" Fury punched the table, his super strength making him so angry that he knocked the table over, "Who is the highest person in charge of this? How could he allow this to happen?"

"Colonel Stryker."

"Oh."

There was a moment of silence.

Dum Dum Dugan knocked on his head and said, "I just read a memory, the clone responsible for monitoring the target reported a robbery at the cooked food warehouse, it seems that the other party spent all the money and had to resort to direct means. Most importantly, he took the opportunity to rob back the money paid to the clone, maybe he plans to pay it back again when he buys food next time."

"I roughly understand what you mean, this guy who is keen on eating raw meat, looted your cooked food warehouse, listen, what a terrible major crime - he can't even tell the difference between raw and cooked food." Fury stared at Dum Dum Dugan.

Dum Dum Dugan's face stiffened.

Coulson said, "Blade has traded with him three times, giving him a total of only two hundred thousand dollars. It's a pity that Blade is unwilling to give us the blood of that creature, so we have no chance to start research. However, even if we get it, we can't study it, that corrosive blood can corrode even super-alloys, this design concept itself should be aimed at reverse gene deciphering projects, even if Duval provides diluted blood."

Coulson doesn't know much about the characteristics of the Xenomorph, even if he really gets artificial Xenomorphs based on gene fragments, these Xenomorphs won't listen to him, and it's inevitable that they will make a big mess in S.H.I.E.L.D..

"Blade is a powerful warrior, but not the best agent, he has his own code of conduct, if he is stubborn, you can't do anything about him. How about this, send someone to provide your clone with another two hundred thousand dollars in funding."

Fury waved his hand very generously, completed the approval, and instructed, "Remember to open an invoice for two hundred million, and send it to the Permanent Five, so they can quickly pay the money."

"Boss, I don't think they will believe it, a strange scientist who can only deal with a few vampires at the cost of his life is not worth two hundred million." Dum Dum Dugan keenly discovered the truth and loyally reminded him.

"Impossible, he can create such a powerful new type of creature, I don't even know what it is, that can even defeat vampires, he's worth it." Fury looked determined, but what he was thinking in his heart was hard to say.

In Fury's view, Duval's achievements, apart from being novel, may only have merit at the level of biotechnology, and perhaps it will take several years or even decades of precipitation to complete a earth-shattering breakthrough in biotechnology before Duval has the value of being promoted by him.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. he controls holds countless secret information related to the survival of mankind, and also holds many special forces.

Undersea, Kunlun, the moon, mages, demons, celestials, icebergs, black dragons, aliens...

Therefore, the current Duval is not worth him personally coming forward.

"Continue to monitor, focus on assessing his psychological situation, confirm whether his personality is stable and reliable, and then make plans."

It is impossible to really remove the monitoring, Duval's ability is not as simple as spraying fire or water, but has reached the point where he can easily commit major crimes, and he must be in the sequence of being monitored.

Because, in this world, the extremely dangerous people are not necessarily those with special powers, but also those with special wisdom.

"Coulson, tell me about your situation." Fury quickly threw the matter of Duval to the back of his mind, it was already an exception for him to spend a few minutes talking about Duval, other things were more important.

Coulson's smile gradually faded: "It's a bit bad, after his father died, Banner hid for a while, and has now been discovered and is being hunted down globally."
