Eric rubbed his brow and looked at the calm Bruce Banner, he didn't know what to say.
This is a problem that's not easy to handle! General Ross has only one daughter, but not only was the four handed Bruce took her V Card but he actually also left a seed.
And this seed is not ordinary ...
' Why don't we just ask Betty to abort the baby!' Eric felt like his head was in a muddle, this whole thing was really beyond his expectations, he didn't think his little butterfly had casually flapped its wings and caused such a tsunami.
Bruce Banner remained calm, without a single mood swing, looking like a robot with no emotions. In this state, his mind was spinning fast and he quickly analysed that this was the effect of the bracelet he was wearing.
Under the effect of this bracelet, Hulk would not come out again, which made Bruce Banner very happy, but happy was not an emotion he experienced either, just the word happy popped into his head, a feeling that was, wonderfully, like watching himself from God's perspective.
'Why do I care!' Eric rubbed his head and slapped himself twice on the face, 'That's Ross' daughter, not mine, why am I worrying about that? Let Ross have a headache!'
Bruce Banner, the culprit, was not going to be handed over, so Eric wisely teleported him to his outer space lab, leaving him to stay with the Hydra scientists while he ran back to Earth to clean up the mess.
Taking the initiative, he called General Ross, who was still arguing was accompanied by the sound of a girl crying, which looked like it should be Betty.
Eric pretended to ask General Ross what was going on and General Ross immediately shooed his daughter out.
General Ross struggled to restrain himself and offered Eric to provide him with more powerful weapons.
"General Ross, aren't space-based weapons powerful enough?"
General Ross was also furious and, in total disregard of the secrecy regulations, sent Eric a video of Hulk fighting hard against a space-based weapon.
I've seen this! Eric laughed bitterly, the purpose of his space-based weapon was to deal with the future crisis, not to fight Hulk!
"General Ross, we do have a few more projects that are in the development stage on our side, but, this, we need time!"
General Ross, in a fit of rage, said, "I'll give you money, I'll give you people, I'll give you power, just get rid of that green bastard!"
Eric muddled through a couple of vague statements and quickly found an excuse to hang up the phone. The only reason he had called General Ross was to find out if there was any room for manoeuvre in the Bruce Banner matter, after all, it would be a waste to keep such a high end warrior in the lab, and maybe he would be allowed to fight in the war later.
But now it seemed that General Ross was not going to relent for a while, so it was better to wait.
Eric paced back and forth in his office, pondering how to handle Bruce Banner, when a message came from the Future that made him instantly put Bruce Banner matter behind him.
Tony Stark was missing!
The Hulk wasn't the only one who had been brought forward!
"Obadiah has finally done it!" Eric immediately let the future take over the Stark Industries network, which also had a soon-to-be-formed artificial intelligence, Jarvis, in the midst of the Stark Industries network.
The name Jarvis actually came from Stark's old butler, who had served the Stark family for his entire life, and Stark became so attached to him that the AI used his name.
Jarvis had not yet been programmed, and developing an AI on his own, even with Stark's intellect, would have taken quite a bit of time. And because of this, the future easily broke through the Stark Industries firewall and took over the network there.
Much as Eric had predicted, the return of Howard Stark had filled Obadiah with a sense of crisis. He had long seen Stark Industries as his own possession, and had not only made a fortune over the years by smuggling weapons, but had also made the business of Stark workers flourish, and seeing that the industry he had worked so hard for would soon be taken away from him, Obadiah felt no better than Ross.
Tony Stark was still a playboy who only knew how to have fun, a man who was very easy to control, but not Howard Stark, that was an old fox!
After thinking about it, Obadiah decided, with a ruthlessness, to cut the grass.
It was Obadiah's smuggling partners in the Middle East, the Ten Rings, that did the job.
Obadiah swindled Stark that there was a very magical old man in the Middle East, an old man who wielded magical powers that was said to have the abilities to bring Howard Stark to his senses immediately.
An anxious Tony Stark put so much faith in Uncle Obadiah's word that he flew his own plane and went there, and then got shot down.
Eric found out information about Tony Stark's plane from Stark Industries, secretly dialed up a S.H.I.E.L.D. satellite, scouted all the way and soon found the wreckage of Stark's plane in a nook in the Middle East and ran over it with a teleport.
After a search, Erik soon found Tony Stark in a broken mountain, his plane shot up in the air, and although he eventually parachuted out to escape, he was still impaled on his chest by flying shrapnel.
By the time Erik found him, his chest had been fitted with an electromagnet.
"Looks like if Stark wants to morph into Iron Man, he still has to experience this!" Eric looked on shaking his head straight away, but had no intention of going down to rescue him.
The man who saved Tony Stark was the same doctor named Ho Yinsen ...
His home was here in the Middle East and this was not the first time he had been captured and knew these terrorists very well.
"They want you to build a more powerful missile with the raw materials to use these missiles!" Yinsen pointed to the missiles with the Stark Industries logo on the ground and translated for Tony Stark.
After the terrorists had left, Tony Stark went to work intensely and busily, and after a lot of work, he finally made the Arc Reactor.
"Oh, it's the Arc Reactor, I saw the Skye Industries launch!" Yinsen looked dumbfounded, but Tony Stark had a dark look on his face.
...
Eric hadn't stepped in to help until after Stark had built the Mark I and flown off in the melee, when Eric stepped in to save Yinsen and teleported him to safety.
"After days of watching the show, it's finally time to get to work!"
