Capturing a criminal related to the attack incident, the Avengers's efforts were not in vain. Steve, carrying the unconscious and severely injured criminal, swiftly led the heroes out of the bar area under the cover of the city's night and before the police arrived.

Before leaving, Steve turned to Caesar and instructed, "Even though your father is not here, don't slack off in learning and training combat skills. Next time, come to the training grounds at SHIELD headquarters. I'll be your combat coach and sparring partner."

The Captain of America as a personal sparring partner? While others might be intimidated, Caesar was no ordinary person. His eyes lit up with excitement, and without hesitation, he readily agreed.

He couldn't yet fully control the strength of Superman's body. Having Captain America as a combat partner would be perfect. After all, where else could he find a human punching bag with dozens of close combat techniques and a body that could withstand injuries without much harm?

Eddie had fully embraced his role as steward and subordinate. Being a human host was too weak, and Venom was too strong. He wasn't a suitable sparring partner.

After the members of the Avengers withdrew, Caesar instructed Annie and her sisters to hurry home. Then, together with Eddie, they almost retraced their steps to leave the Queens area.

That night.

Caesar's strength was showcased as he swiftly dealt with two altered individuals. Countless sleepless nights awaited those who harbored ill intentions.

Whether others could sleep or not was unknown, but Caesar slept soundly. After a busy day of running around and engaging in superhuman battles, he fell asleep as soon as he lay on the soft bed.

It wasn't until the next afternoon that Caesar woke up. Floating out of bed and into the washroom, he grumbled to his roommate Eddie to prepare lunch. Eddie, with a serious expression, informed him of two things.

First, late last night, the Avengers, led by Steve, were attacked by a terrorist group while transporting the genetically altered criminals back to SHIELD. If it had been ordinary terrorists, one hero could have easily vanquished them. 

However, the attackers were an elite armed group of lifeform genetically altered individuals. They outnumbered the heroes, and the attack was sudden, forcing the Avengers to defend themselves passively.

The terrorists were clearly well-trained and under unified command. They retreated after causing minor disturbances, sacrificing two of their own through self-destruct mechanisms. Taking advantage of the chaos, they disappeared into the bustling city under the cover of night.

Throughout the entire ordeal, none of the members of the Avengers were injured. However, the hostage being transported was killed on the spot by the terrorists.

Caesar was astonished to hear this. In New York City, daring to take action against the Avengers was audacious enough. What's more, their objective had been achieved perfectly.

Although the current Avengers was still in its infancy, and with Kyle and Tony leaving Earth, the main members like Captain America, Black Widow, and Hawkeye were mid-level combatants between ordinary humans and superhumans. However, this disregard for the heroes was too arrogant and domineering.

Secondly, there was news from Stark Industries, relayed by Annie, which also occurred late last night.

CEO Pepper Potts mysteriously disappeared! Along with her, Vice President Aldrich Killian also vanished. The disappearance of these two important high-ranking officials of Stark Industries had thrown the entire company into a state of panic. The news caused Stark Industries' stock to plummet by more than ten billion dollars in just one day.

Despite the drop, Stark Industries still held its position as the number one company in the world's top 500. However, since Iron Man Tony left, this was the first time Stark Industries had fallen below its lowest point.

Both incidents were nothing short of terrible news!

After listening to Eddie's account, Caesar calmly pondered. Although it seemed like two separate matters, in reality, the two were closely related, almost certainly deducible as the same event.

If all the speculation was correct, then the mastermind behind the terrorists and the inventor of the lifeform genetic alteration was none other than Vice President Killian. He was truly an admirable villain.

Last night.

The criminals were just captured by the Avengers when they realized their identities might be exposed. They ordered their henchmen to kill the hostage, and Killian, realizing he had to abandon his identity and position, decisively took Pepper Potts hostage.

Ruthless and efficient, without wasting any time or words, this was the exemplary conduct a villain should have.

With things escalating to this point, Caesar couldn't help but give Killian a thumbs up, albeit at the three-meter-high weed-covered grave.

Eddie looked at Caesar and said, "Master, shouldn't we request support from the Carl Family? If Raina's boss takes action, I believe all the problems can be easily resolved."

The Black Queen Raina, the queen of the underworld, was no joke. Her reputation was built on heaps of bones and blood.

Caesar shook his little head, sneering dismissively. "This is a minor issue, no need to bother Raina."

"That's your mother," Eddie silently muttered to himself, but dared not speak aloud. He asked helplessly, "So, what should we do?"

"What should we do? We need to reclaim the territory of the Avengers and Stark Industries, and we need to do it quickly and forcefully!"

Caesar's face was cold and stern. After a moment's thought, he came up with a plan. "Eddie, I need you to handle a few things for me."

"Please, go on," Eddie nodded crisply.

While Caesar's tone remained childish, his words carried undeniable authority. "First, get in touch with the Empire Tower. Tell them they don't need to take action regarding Stark Industries. Just ask Raina to borrow God."

"God? What's that?" Eddie scratched his head in bewilderment. He hadn't heard of such a peculiar name in non-natural affairs.

"Just relay the message. Raina will understand," Caesar shrugged, squinting his eyes. "Secondly, notify the management of Stark Industries. Tell them to prepare for a press conference and publicity. Let them announce to the international media that the senior executives of Stark Industries will hold a press conference for the world to see!"

"A press conference? And Stark Industries' senior executives?" Eddie widened his eyes, looking puzzled. "Who are they?"

With an indifferent expression, Caesar pointed to his own nose, seemingly hitting Eddie's funny bone as he burst into exaggerated laughter.

After a while, Eddie looked at Caesar's serious little face, and his smile froze. His mouth twitched slightly. "Master, you can't be serious, can you? You, holding a press conference?"

"Of course," Caesar crossed his arms, looking at him askance. "Isn't my status enough to represent the senior executives of Stark Industries?"
