Hot.
That was her first impression inside the space station. Many metals showed signs of burning, and various debris littered the ground, forcing Daisy to carefully watch her step.
Countless precision instruments had turned into semi-solid metal liquids, regardless of their previous value, now just debris on the ground.
Darkness was her second impression.
Even though she activated the lighting device on her space suit, she still felt the darkness pressing in on her even with her good vision. The path was uneven and littered with debris, making walking difficult.
Time was not on her side. External rescue would arrive within an hour at most.
The high radiation on site severely hindered her vibration abilities. Even though she had remembered Susan's frequency earlier, it was not easy to locate her now.
"Ouch!" As she searched for Susan, she suddenly felt something trip her.
Under normal circumstances, she would have been fine. However, she was now wearing a particularly thick and bulky space suit. Despite her quick reflexes, she couldn't prevent stumbling eventually.
Looking at the empty ground, she touched left and right. This transparent object there should be the Invisible Woman, Susan Storm, right?
She touched the head, which was very recognizable, she continued to touch her face, lips, and neck, determining 50-60%, until she touched her soft and squishy chest, and finally determined that the transparent object on the ground was Susan.
She quickly found her own space suit, which should have been specially prepared by Reed and chosen by herself. Reed, being the kind-hearted person he was, would surely have tested for radiation first and wouldn't have given her a suit containing radioactive energy if she asked for it later.
Daisy had to take care of it herself, but unfortunately, she couldn't pull it out after trying a couple of times.
"What's blocking it?" She felt from head to toe again, touching it twice...
After scratching her head for a moment, she realized that Susan had been wedged between two metal pillars during the strong impact. The metal pillars had absorbed some of her invisibility ability but didn't possess the characteristics of synthetic fibers. Currently, there were signs of their visibility.
Daisy tried to move the metal pillars but unfortunately failed. Despite her tremendous strength, wearing the oversized spacesuit made it impossible for her to exert force.
"Just to make it clear in advance, this is not personal!" She muttered quietly. Since she couldn't rely on pure physical strength, she had to use her powers.
Grabbing the two metal pillars with both hands, she activated her vibrational ability, intending to break the pillars.
Some of the force would undoubtedly transfer to Susan, but she had no better option.
"Hmm... umh..." Miss Susan Storm looked to be in shock, with abnormal flushing on the surface of her body, her small mouth slightly open and letting out soft moans. Daisy pretended to not see anything in the reflection.
After a minute and fifteen seconds, she managed to break the two pillars made of a special alloy that Reed had used, freeing the still-unconscious Susan Storm.
The two synthetic fiber protective suits were already mostly damaged. Daisy carefully removed them from Susan and placed them in a special box. After thinking about it, she also tore off two pieces from Susan's own suit...
The backpack was already mostly broken, and the shaking from someone made it even worse. Some unidentifiable small fragments of the protective suit were scattered around, creating the illusion of more extensive damage.
Without hesitation, she collected several pieces of protective suit fragments from Reed and Johnny respectively. As for the burnt-to-a-crisp Ben Grimm, she gave up. He was completely burnt, and there was no trace of any fragments.
After wandering around, she finally made her way to the central control room, intending to deal with the powerful villain Doctor Doom in advance.
Unfortunately, luck was on the Doom's side this time.
Reed Richards had constructed an extremely sturdy alloy shield to observe cosmic rays, and Doom was currently unconscious inside the shield.
The radioactive interference was so great that it prevented Daisy from teleporting inside. As for breaking in with her ring, she hesitated for a moment before ultimately giving up.
The ring wouldn't function outside a living organism, and wearing a spacesuit, using the ring would have punctured the suit, exposing her to the radiation from cosmic rays. Daisy didn't have the courage to face that risk at the moment.
"Lucky for you," she faintly heard the sound of helicopters outside. Without further delay, she teleported back to New York.
Back in New York, she first removed her spacesuit in the isolation chamber, was sprayed with water to remove any bacteria or other things, then took a bath, and changed into fresh clothes. Then, she stood outside the small, sealed laboratory she had set up.
Through the glass, she commanded, "Danger, check the radiation levels of those clothes and compare them with my genetic makeup. See if there's a possibility of enhancement."
Danger, using several mechanical arms, opened the metal box and took out the synthetic fiber protective suit fragments Daisy had brought back.
Radiation was present and in large quantities. Danger needed to do a lot of comparative work to determine the composition of cosmic rays before finally conducting irradiation experiments with Daisy's genetic samples.
Leaving Danger to conduct the experiments, Daisy returned to investigate matters concerning Doom Corporation.
"There's a lot of capital involved in the market entry, and our profits will be affected to some extent," the maid had been busy all day. She wasn't a financial professional, but now she had a team under her handling such specific affairs, and reporting the results to Daisy was sufficient.
"There's nothing we can do about it. No one is stupid; you keep track, and we'll have the results tomorrow," Daisy said, turning her pen around. Her tone carried a hint of resignation. The timing of the space station's fall, just an hour before closing, was unfortunate.
Unlike Stark's announcement of ceasing weapons development, which happened during a press conference where both capitalists and the general public received the news almost simultaneously, trying to operate beforehand was difficult.
Now, the situation was different. Ordinary citizens didn't know that something had fallen into the South Pacific, and many were still waiting for good news under Doom Corporation's media bombardment.
The overall market trend was stable with a slight rise, but several large capital holders who were privy to the news of the space station's fall had already started short-selling on Doom Corporation, anticipating that Doom himself had a high chance of being among the casualties. Their funds flooded into the market, waiting to carve out a piece of flesh from Doom Corporation when the market opened the next day.
"We lost some of our initial capital this morning, around 30 million," Maki said with some regret.
They had entered the market a bit early, and singing against the tide in a wave of positive news would undoubtedly have an impact.
Daisy couldn't do much about it. The stock market was too volatile, and her vibration ability couldn't control the market. Despite her profound knowledge, capable of calculating cosmic rays and spacetime coordinates, even Mr. Reed Richards himself couldn't make sense of the stock market.
Several times he had prepared to enter the market to supplement household expenses, only to be tossed around by the market, leaving him deprived.
Everyone is beaten by the stock market. If an ordinary person wanted to live a long and healthy life, especially in superhero worlds, it was best to stay away from the market without insider information...
