Pierce, who had been paying attention to William for a long time, recognized Serena at a glance. SHIELD already knew that Serena was a member of the Blood Clan.
However, SHIELD has not found any useful information about why Serena and Nissa were able to appear in the sun for a long time. In the end, it can only be credited to William.
Serena, who was standing by the door of the spaceship, took a few glances at Pierce's office, then took a few steps back. With a quick step, she stepped on the edge of the door and exerted strength in her legs.
She leaped over a distance of more than ten meters and jumped onto the balcony of the office. Looking at the dumbfounded Pierce, she knocked on the glass door with her hand.
Only then did Pierce react. He was still hesitating whether to open the door when William's threatening voice came from the phone.
"If you don't open the door, I'll order the spaceship to crash in. I guarantee that even if it smashes your office, the spaceship will only lose some paint."
Damn it. Hearing William's words, Pierce's mouth twitched a few times. He cursed William in his heart for being a scoundrel.
He decided in his heart that after today, he would tear down all the balconies of the entire SHIELD building and replace the glass with special glass that even missiles couldn't penetrate.
He would avoid encountering such uninvited guests who would jump onto the balcony when there was a front door.
It would be fine if it was a normal person, but what Pierce couldn't accept was that although the beauty was beautiful, she was a f * cking vampire.
If she suddenly bit him when they met, wouldn't he also become a vampire? There was a high chance that he would be controlled by Serena.
"Your people came to see me. Can't they be more formal and polite and come in through the front door?"
Pierce said this, but seeing the spaceship slowly approaching, he had no doubt that William would order the spaceship to crash through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
He hurried forward to open the glass door of the balcony and let Serena in.
At the same time, he walked to the desk, pressed the landline, and told his subordinates that he was fine. In fact, he was secretly ordering his men to prepare outside.
Fortunately, after Serena came in, she didn't do anything extra and nodded to Pierce.
She said directly, "Where's the thing William wants?"
"Damn it, what do you mean by the thing he wants?"
Pierce couldn't hold it in any longer. He cursed in a low voice and retorted, "You didn't even talk about the conditions. Did I agree?"
"I'm sorry, Mr Pierce." Serena frowned. "I only know that William sent me here to retrieve something. The rest is your business."
After putting on the smart glasses with energy detection function, Serena looked around and stared at a wall for a few seconds. A notification from the smart glasses sounded in her ears.
Fortunately, Serena didn't intend to snatch the Tesseract. After discovering the Tesseract, she turned to look at the gloomy Pierce expressionlessly.
Pierce, whose lungs were about to explode from anger, stared at the smart glasses that were flashing with blue light. He thought for a moment and asked tentatively.
"Miss Serena, can I borrow your glasses for a look?"
Before Serena could refuse, she heard William say, "Give it to him, my dear."
Serena finally understood that William had purposely made her wear the smart glasses.
Without hesitation, she took off the glasses and threw it to Pierce.
Pierce didn't mind that the glasses had been worn by someone before. He put on the glasses and looked at the safe where the Tesseract was stored. He saw a number that kept rising on the lenses.
After five or six seconds, a notification sounded in his ears, warning that the energy source was too large. If he continued to detect, the smart detector's chip would be at risk of burning.
Pierce already had a rough guess about how large the energy source of the Tesseract was. However, even if he racked his brains, he wouldn't have thought that the actual number would far exceed the imagination of any Blue Planet.
After confirming that the real reason the Tesseract was exposed was because of the energy detector, Pierce heaved a sigh of relief. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sleep well in the future.
Looking at Serena, there were no notifications on the glasses. Pierce thought that it was a pity. He also understood that either the smart glasses couldn't detect living bodies, or Serena and the others had a protection program.
Since he couldn't see them, what about the spaceship?
With this thought, Pierce turned to look at the spaceship outside the office.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!" After just a few glances, the smart glasses on his face started to sound an urgent warning. "Warning, energy level is too high. Warning, unauthorized detection, self-destructing, self-destructing."
This sudden self-destructing sound scared Pierce so much that he took off the glasses without thinking and threw them to the far corner of the wall.
Luckily, he threw them quickly. The smart glasses started to smoke while they were still in the air. When they fell to the ground in the corner, the frames on both sides were already on fire.
Looking at the frightened Pierce, William laughed out loud. His voice rang out from Serena's phone. "Haha, I'm sorry. I forgot to tell you that the things I do have confidentiality and anti-spying measures.
However, old man, you asked for it. You've been a secret agent for decades. Don't you know the principle of confidentiality? "
After taking a few deep breaths, Pierce acted as if he didn't hear William's mockery.
Although it was just a few glances, before the smart glasses sounded the alarm, an energy number jumped rapidly, just like when he was observing the Tesseract.
Therefore, after throwing away the glasses, Pierce's mind was completely focused on his memories and comparing the energy numbers of the spaceship and the Tesseract.
The spaceship that William was piloting today was produced on Planet X17. The energy used was the energy crystals exchanged from the Predators.
Of course, the energy crystals couldn't compare to the energy of the Tesseract, but in less than a second, it wasn't a problem to fool Pierce.
At this moment, just as William had expected, Pierce finished comparing the energy values of the spaceship and the Tesseract, and the result shocked him.
He kept wondering why the spaceship's energy value was so much higher than the initial value of Universal Magic.
If William were to answer this question, of course, it would be because the Tesseract was locked in a safe and wrapped in a protective suitcase. Being able to detect it was already considered cheating by William. SHIELD's protective suitcase technology was too low.
But if Pierce hadn't thought of this, William wouldn't have reminded him.
Sure enough, after seeing the spaceship's energy value, Pierce, whose mind was in a mess, didn't understand the logic behind it for a moment. He could only comfort himself by thinking that no matter how high the spaceship's energy value was, could it compare to the infinite energy of the Tesseract?
That was what he thought, but Pierce was even more uncertain about the upcoming negotiations.
Without needing Serena's urging, he subconsciously walked over to the secret safe, pressed the password, scanned his fingerprint, retina, and voiceprint before opening the safe.
He took out a silver suitcase, closed the safe, and walked back to his desk.
As if in a hurry to show the customer that his product was the best sale, he opened the suitcase to reveal a cube with a glowing blue surface.
William confirmed at a glance that the item in the suitcase was what Pierce had been planning and looking forward to since he went to London to meet him.
"Tesseract."
