Luke gladly accepted it.
He didn't lack money, materials or equipment, and Pim particles were a seller's market. It wasn't strange for them to be expensive.
Besides, there was a reason why he was being so courteous.
He had to learn how to make Pim particles sooner or later. For now, he just needed to use the finished product.
If he had a chance in the future, he could recruit Dr. Pim as a teammate. That way, he would be able to make progress on Pim particles.
It had to be noted that Darren was Dr. Pim's favorite student.
In the end, this proud student obtained Dr. Pim's research materials, but after three years of effort, he still couldn't produce Pim particles on a large scale.
As for the practical application of Pim particles, there was no progress at all.
This proved once again that not everyone could play with some top-notch technology.
Dr. Pim had worked for S.H.I.E.L.D. twenty years ago, and their glorious achievements were recorded in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secret files.
The most exaggerated one was in 1987, when he and his wife intercepted an intercontinental ballistic missile headed for the United States.
Only after reading the file did Luke realize why the old man was a dark green Philanthropist.
This time alone, Dr. Pim and his wife had saved tens of thousands of people.
As for their espionage activities, they were mainly covert infiltrations.
Not every spy was 007, and it was extremely rare for them to go on a killing spree in the enemy's base.
Being a philanthropist wasn't the main point. The main point was that Dr. Pim and his wife had shrunk to the size of ants when they carried out their mission.
Dr. Pim had the code name Ant-Man at S.H.I.E.L.D., and his wife, Janet, was Wasp Woman because she could not only shrink, but also fly.
All of this was based on Pim particles and the matching combat suit that Dr. Pim had developed.
Pim's student, Darren, "rebelled" not only for Pim particles, but also for the method to make this special combat suit.
That was the reason why the teacher and student fell out.
S.H.I.E.L.D. wanted Dr. Pim to hand over these two technologies, but was refused.
At that time, Tony's father wasn't dead yet, and he had a position in S.H.I.E.L.D. In the end, the irascible Dr. Pim called him Thief Stark.
That's right, Dr. Pim was a super scientist who dared to argue with Howard Stark, and was now a super stubborn old man.
Luke didn't think that there were many people in the world who were more respected than Howard Stark.
One had to know that scientists also cared about their achievements.
Why did most people take Tony's young master's actions for granted? This was because his father, Howard, was the first "Young Master Stark."
It could only be said that Tony was indeed Howard's son. The father and son were really alike.
Similarly, Tony's reputation as a genius was similar to Howard's status in the past.
Dr. Pim dared to point at Howard's nose and call him a thief, but Howard didn't say anything.
Because he had secretly tried to replicate the Pym particle.
Why do you want to duplicate it in private? Because he couldn't make it himself.
Dr. Pim, the inventor of the Pim particle project, was definitely a hack.
Luke didn't mind giving a top scientist such courtesy. Was face that important? It was not important at all.
He always had a good attitude towards people who could support him with technology and abilities. Otherwise, he would not be able to use those technologies when the time came.
If he didn't support Dr. Pim, the old man wouldn't be able to force Daron into a corner.
Whether or not the cornered Darren would still be protected by the system was another question.
He was very sure that Darren, who was the spokesperson for the capital group, wouldn't always abide by the law.
If he gave Dr. Pim a little help now, it might be possible for Darren to jump the wall much earlier.
Luke loved helping others out the most.
And after he completed his first deal with Dr. Pim, the stubborn old man's originally weak hostility turned into neutrality.
Luke thought that the old man must have thought that he was like Howard, and that he coveted Dr. Pim's technology.
Although that was the truth, at least Luke didn't threaten him, and was even willing to trade with Dr. Pim for certain supplies that he urgently needed.
This was a normal business relationship, and wasn't hostile at all.
If anyone who asked if the Pim particle technology was for sale was going to be hated, then this old man would have enemies all over the place.
…
After settling the deal with Dr. Pim, Luke and Selina didn't delay any further, and flew back to New York.
Two people and one dog returned to their long-awaited nest in Clinton. Everything was the same.
Little Snail had the cleaning robot clean every day, and even turned on the ventilation function, fulfilling the duties of a butler.
Selina couldn't wait. "Let's go see the little turtle and the others tonight."
Naturally, Luke didn't object.
The team members hadn't stopped contacting each other in the past six months, but Selina hadn't fed her four Forgiveness Beasts for a long time, and missed them very much.
He simply said, "I'll inform everyone to go to the bat cave. It just so happens that the preparations are almost complete. It's time to put it on the agenda. "
Selina blinked and said with a strange expression, "Up to you."
The smart kitchenware that had been out for a long time started up again, and produced a lot of cheese pizzas, half of which were made up of blue cheese.
At night, Luke and Selina stealthily went to the bat cave warehouse in New Jersey.
When they arrived, everyone who should be there was already sitting in the public living room of the underground base.
Selina went to play with her little pets with a lot of special pizzas.
Luke, on the other hand, greeted everyone and instructed Mindy to give them drinks.
After more than ten minutes, everybody took their seats.
Damon couldn't help but ask curiously, "Bruce, did you say that we're going to set up a new agency?"
Luke put down the coffee in his hand and nodded. "That's right. That's the only way we'll be able to better recruit peripheral members. "
Apart from a few young people, everybody else's hearts skipped a beat as they caught the keyword: peripheral members?
Pausing for a moment to give everybody some time to think, Luke explained, "Bat Squad still exists, and is the core strength of this new agency. The rules are no different from before, but we're just individuals. Even if we're strong and we work together, we're still individuals. "
The few old birds understood what he was trying to say.
It was like starting a company.
It was the kind that only had two or three people, and operated like a handicraft workshop. It was completely different from a company with hundreds of people.
It was the same even if these two people were more outstanding than the hundreds of people combined.
Sure enough, Luke continued, "We've already reached our current limit in terms of individual combat ability. Without the help of peripheral members, we have to deal with a lot of things ourselves, which is a waste of everyone's time. So, we need some support personnel to help us deal with professional matters that don't require combat ability. "
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement, even the five underage children.
It wasn't a problem for them to punish evil.
But intelligence reconnaissance, cleaning up the loose ends, supplying equipment and resources, dealing with the official forces, and so on were a headache.
Even veterans like Frank and Damon, who could operate in one go, didn't really want to do these things, but they had to.
