American Comics: BOSS Invasion

Chaos reigned at the CIA, with phones ringing off the hook as everyone demanded detailed information on Qi Shan. However, the CIA was equally clueless, having no record of a "Mike Qi" whatsoever.

Eventually, they located information about a special operations team in a discarded file.

As a military supplier, Qi Shan operated directly through upper-level channels. Even congressmen might not have met him, let alone the lower-level employees.

As expected, Qi Shan's appointment caused a great uproar, but thanks to the current special circumstances and the highly centralized military government system, the outcome was relatively smooth.

Of course, the unique structure of S.H.I.E.L.D. also played a role.

Various forces tested the waters several times, but Qi Shan calmly deflected them all.

They were all ambitious but incapable opportunists, full of schemes but lacking real ability.

Qi Shan was too lazy to bother with them. He ignored the small fries, and if they persisted, he'd teach them a lesson, leaving them bedridden for a few weeks.

As for those stubborn high-ranking officials, Qi Shan wouldn't mind giving them a brain transplant.

Quantum entanglement information transmission technology, combined with nano-mimetic nerves, could easily turn a human into a brain in a jar.

The entire transformation process took no more than three minutes, simple and convenient.

The rest was simply using the old methods from the Marvel movie universe: having Alice mark individuals and using algorithms to maintain balance, outwardly keeping his approval rating at a slightly advantageous level.

This allowed Qi Shan to flexibly use various means.

With this, Qi Shan achieved his initial goal.

Gaining access to the global network surveillance key, connecting to the limited law enforcement authority of over a hundred countries, Alice could transform into a Skynet-like entity, using the artificial human army to quickly eliminate the cockroach-human population.

Starting in October, when the first battle ended, Qi Shan spent less than three months re-establishing S.H.I.E.L.D.'s global network.

The reproductive rate of the evolved cockroach-humans had significantly slowed down. Even if they couldn't compare to the human ten-month gestation, they still needed about a month.

And it took more than two months for the larvae to grow into adults.

Therefore, when Qi Shan activated the mutant army, the number of cockroach-humans didn't explode.

Moreover, although Artificial Human No. 30's abilities were average, its efficiency in slaughtering cockroach-humans was very high.

Ordinary rural towns took no more than five minutes.

Therefore, the cleanup speed was very fast.

By March of the following year, the entire seven continents had been completely swept clean.

During this period, the artificial human forces expanded rapidly.

Qi Shan used his left hand to pass to his right, importing a large number of artificial bodies for S.H.I.E.L.D. while also stuffing most of the military funds into his pocket.

And this money was then converted into various resources in various countries through S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secret channels.

The main plane produced artificial bodies in exchange for money, and the money was exchanged for resources, which were then returned to the main plane.

This formed a perfect cycle.

During this period, Qi Shan obtained various resources such as manpower and material resources from the mutant plane, the governments of various countries resisted the disaster of the end of the world, the cockroach-humans were suppressed, resources were sold well, and the international economy gradually prospered.

Apart from the fact that the governments of various countries had an extra "father" on their heads, everything seemed to be developing in a good direction.

In May, under Qi Shan's clever arrangement, the Doomsday Self-Help Organization began to contact S.H.I.E.L.D., and mutants gradually surfaced.

With Qi Shan's help, the rise of mutants in the future was already a certainty.

It's just that Professor X and S.H.I.E.L.D. had nothing to do with it anymore.

Given the abnormality of Wolverine's appearance, Qi Shan blocked off the Egyptian pyramid area in advance and found Apocalypse's location.

Qi Shan didn't have the idea of striking first.

At his current height, a mere Apocalypse wasn't enough to make him fear.

He simply set up some monitors and had Alice prepare a few contingency plans.

If anything unexpected caused Apocalypse to awaken, Sharu would appear in front of him the next moment, directly sending him a Polaris-style electromagnetic collar.

Mutants had too many weaknesses, and it was easy to deal with them as long as you seized the opportunity.

In early June, thanks to Qi Shan's unremitting efforts, the smoke font finally arrived late.

[Mission Completed]

[Sixteenth boss, Mars cockroach, was cleared by 100,037,000, and the mutant civilization was able to continue.]

[Remaining Mars cockroach individuals will be repatriated in 30 minutes.]

[Mission Reward: Fusion of Soft Ascidian Gene]

[Analysis: Asexual reproduction of individuals can be carried out through 'budding'. As long as the main energy is sufficient, it can be increased. After proliferation, it is the same gene but different individuals.]

----

Marvel Main Plane, on the rings of Saturn, the Sky Eye Society's space forward base.

Qi Shan was lying on a deck chair, leisurely enjoying the sunshine.

He really didn't expect that after the Mars cockroach mission was completed, it would be such a strange reward.

Too weird!

Qi Shan looked back strangely.

On the platform behind him, there were ten deck chairs lying horizontally, and there was a Qi Shan on each deck chair.

They had the same body shape and appearance, and their memories were basically the same as the main body, but they differed greatly in details.

Just like Naruto's personality clones, each person had their own independent ideals and aesthetics.

These feelings that were obviously not himself, but were indeed himself, were quite strange.

Damn it!

Why was it just such a reward?

Even the soft ascidian in the Mars cockroach needs contact with three or more allotypes in order to continuously bud and split new individuals under sufficient nutrition and sunlight.

But Qi Shan's special physique can't resist it, and the golden finger is in the form of energy.

As long as Qi Shan is willing, he can split new individuals anytime and anywhere like Tomie.

It's just that the split individuals are all ordinary people.

But Qi Shan has a lot of good things in his hands.

In addition, with Dr. Gero's assistance, the combat power will explode in minutes.

Originally, with Qi Shan's special physique that absorbs all energy, the buds couldn't absorb energy.

He was curious and took the initiative to split out a trace of golden energy, but he didn't expect to create ten identities at once.

Now things are serious!

Helpless, Qi Shan could only use nano-construction technology plus Pym particle technology to quickly build a forward base on the rings of Saturn and temporarily rest here.

These clones must be dealt with as soon as possible.

They are all himself and cannot be killed directly. They can only be raised as naughty children, or...

Qi Shan glanced at the space-time ring in his hand and suddenly raised his voice: "You guys, are you interested in parallel universes?"

Ten people raised their heads at the same time, all showing smiles.

Qi Shan supported his forehead with his hand: "I knew it!"
