Chapter 108 - Chapter 108: Victor von Doom

Victor Von Doom, Marvel's one of the most iconic villains or anti hero, the famous Dr. Doom, Mr. Fantastic Reed's old classmate and love rival and lifelong enemy, God Emperor Doom of the Battle World ...

His legend is far more exciting than that of Iron Man or Black Panther. He was born in a small feudal Eastern European country, Latveria. His mother was a witch with powerful magical abilities who was later imprisoned by the demon lord of Hell, Mephisto, who imprisoned her soul and gave Doom his magical gifts.

In order to save his mother's soul from hell, Doom used his ingenuity to invent a battle armour no less powerful than Iron Man, learned magic no less powerful than Dr Strange, and combined technology and magic into one, making himself incredibly powerful.

With his strength and ingenuity, he seized power in his homeland of Latveria and established a dictatorship, making it a paradise without war and without hunger.

How strong is Doom at the height of his powers? How strong is Doom? He rips apart the Thanos, stomps on Black Panther with the Infinity Gauntlet, and kills Cyclops with the Phoenix Power ...

All of these things are no big deal!

He also created the battle world, in this place, he is the god of creation, he is God.

...

Of course, all this is an afterthought, right now, Doom is still a successful businessman who has just graduated a few years ago, and has created his own company.

Eric was very surprised by his visit, this is the best of all Marvel villains, what did he want with himself? Did he come to him to learn the advanced technology of other universe villains' haunts? To gain experience to become the strongest villain in Marvel?

That's bullshit, he wouldn't be that bored!

"Dr. Doom, welcome, welcome!" From a long distance away, Eric warmly reached over his hand.

Such an enthusiastic attitude, in turn, confused Doom a little, but as a man Doom quickly returned to his businessman self and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Eric, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

It was a shame that, despite his many achievements, even the Nobel Prize had approached him, Eric had not yet been awarded a PhD. The main reason is that he feels that those false names are of no use to him, and in his fabricated profile, his education is only a bachelor's degree from some pheasant university ...

Of course, no one would despise him for this, his many achievements have successfully proved his talent, which made the slightly accomplished Doom treat him very politely, "Mr. Eric, I am here to ask you a few questions, and of course, if possible, the Doom Industries would like to enter into certain cooperation with Skye Industries."

"Oh? What kind of questions?" Now Eric's interest came, Doom's IQ could be ranked at least in the top five on earth, a question that could put him in a difficult position, Eric was certainly interested.

"It's like this, through some channels, I learned that Skye Industries sold a batch of space-based weapons to the military, oh, of course, I have no idea about space-based weapons, and the Doom Industries will definitely not point their fingers at this area, please rest assured of that."

Eric nodded secretly, it seemed that Doom also had someone in the military, it had only been less than a week, and he had already gotten the news.

Seeing Eric nod, Doom thought that Eric was responding to him, smiled slightly and continued, "Your space-based weapon design is very good, but there is one thing I don't quite understand, how did you collect such a huge amount of solar energy through a device that is only about ten meters in diameter?"

Erik raised an eyebrow at that, "You saw my satellite?"

"Coincidentally, one of my satellites was not far from it when the space-based weapon was launched." Doom didn't hold back on Eric's question.

Look at this, this is super genius, Skye Industries has developed for several years and accumulated a huge amount of wealth before touching the money burning field of satellites, Doom on the other hand, just a few years out of school, Doom Group's market value is less than ten billion, and already has his own satellite, and it looks like there is more than one!

"Dr. Doom, I'm afraid I can't tell you this, it's a trade secret!"

Nonsense, of course I won't tell you! This is the most core secret of space-based weapons. This is the technology that has allowed Skye Industries to take the lead in this field of space-based weapons.

Apart from this technology, there are no other secrets in space-based weapons. Whether it is an electromagnetic cannon firing tungsten rod or a high-powered laser generator, anyone with a little technological prowess can develop them.

What is lacking in space-based weapons is not the means of attack, but the means of energy supply. Without a constant supply of energy, it would take a long time to recharge the laser after a few shots.

The energy harvesting device on the space-based weapon, which appears to be only about ten metres in size, can collect energy for thousands of metres or more. This is derived from a special magnetic field device designed by Eric to attract solar energy from nearby. This technology was derived from the energy harvesting device that Eric had used to control solar storms, but this one was now just smaller and more efficient.

Doom was prepared for Eric's refusal, and his offer to buy the technology and his willingness to sign a series of overbearing terms that would guarantee Skye Industries' rights made Eric very curious as to what he was after.

"Dr. Doom, can you tell me what you want this technology for?"

Since he had come to ask for help, Doom had no intention of concealing his purpose and stated it in full.

"I don't know if you remember, but there was a solar storm a few years ago." Doom paused slightly, as if to give Eric time to recall, "A friend of mine, who collected some data from that time, found after research that exposure to a high-energy cosmic storm generated by the coronal solar wind could trigger the evolution of early planetary life."

"If researched in space, it would fundamentally advance our understanding of the structure of human genetic organisation and cure countless diseases! For this research, the Doom Group will build a space station! And to collect this energy when the next solar storm comes!"

Eric realized that this idea that had led to the creation of the Fantastic Four and the rebirth of Dr. Doom ...

"Dr. Doom, I'd like to ask, with the amount of money Doom's group has, is it enough to build a space station?"

"Counting the Doom building I just completed, yes enough!" Doom's tone was very firm, and it was clear that he had great trust in his friend.

"That friend of yours, is that Dr Richards?"

"Oh? You know him?" Doom looked surprised.

Eric nodded, "He's very talented, I've read quite a few of his papers."

"He's very good indeed!"

Eric pondered for a moment and looked straight at Doom, "We can agree to work together, but on one condition, can your friend, lend me his services for a few days?"
