Justin Hammer, Peter's purpose

After entering the school, the principal took Merlin directly to the office.

"Xiao, take a seat first." The principal's name was Ant Sousa, a mixed-race man wearing a suit. He looked to be in his fifties, in good health. When he looked at Merlin, his face was full of kindness and relief.

"Please take a seat." After Merlin sat down, the principal also asked people from other technology companies to sit down.

A teacher came in with tea and served a cup to everyone.

After the atmosphere quieted down, Principal Ant looked around at everyone present, but when he set his sights on a middle-aged man wearing a black suit, glasses, and looking like a successful person, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"Justin Hammer, you actually came here in person?"

Justin Hammer, President of Hammer Industries, a military technology company known for its piracy and cheap products.

Although his reputation is not very good, he is able to survive under the pressure of Stark Industries, which shows that he has certain outstanding qualities.

And Merlin's first thought when he saw the other party was a firecracker - the ex-wife missile.

Of course, he didn't mean to look down on it.

"This kid is a genius. He's worth a personal visit. As long as he joins my Hammer Industries, I will definitely train him to be stronger than Tony Stark."

Although Tony Stark now often hangs out in various entertainment venues, is embroiled in all kinds of gossip, and is dubbed the Playboy, no one underestimates the wisdom of Stark Industries in the new military products he releases time and time again.

As long as Tony Stark is around, Hammer Industries will never be able to recover.

But last night's technology show gave Hammer hope

Merlin remained calm as he listened to the other party's big promises, and in his mind he was thinking about whether he could bring Hammer Industries into the game.

In addition, he also wants to recruit one of the most important NPCs in the game, the technician.

Justin Hammer's daughter, Justin Hammer, is the future Scarlet Cloak. In addition to the spatial transfer ability of the cloak, she is also a shrewd businessman and negotiation expert.

Being a technician, positions like Co-Prosperity Insurance are perfect for you.

"Then why don't you join our Stark Industries and form a powerful alliance with Tony?" The person from Stark Industries couldn't help but stand up. He received an order from Obadiah to do his best to recruit this high school student into the company.

Obadi obviously also wants to train someone to replace Tony and work for him wholeheartedly.

"You will only be suppressed by Tony Stark if you go there. Only our Hammer Industries is the best stage for you."

"We at Stark Industries are willing to show our sincerest sincerity. If possible, President Stark can also teach you, so that you will grow faster."

Merlin secretly complained in his heart when he heard this. Based on his understanding of Tony, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would teach others.

Hammer and Stark Industries started arguing in the office, but there were no substantial conditions, only pieces of fancy pie.

Other tech companies have also tried to join the discussion.

...

"Gentlemen, be quiet. I think you should look for my guardian in this matter. It's not easy for me to make a decision on this matter."

"It's okay, I'll go to class." Merlin felt a headache looking at the chattering group of people. Then, regardless of their trying to keep him, he picked up his backpack and quickly left the office.

"This..." The people in the office were dumbfounded when they saw the owner suddenly leave.

Merlin is already an adult and the contract he signed is legally binding, so they want to paint a rosy picture in advance to lure him over.

But now the other party left without any regrets.

"George Stacy..." Hammer and others showed a headache expression. They really didn't like dealing with the police, and the other party was an upright sheriff. This kind of person was the most difficult to get along with.

They couldn't help but look at the principal...

"Our school respects students' opinions." Ant smiled at them. In fact, even if Merlin was tempted, he would stop him.

The main reason for letting them come is to promote the school.

Major technology companies gathered at Midtown High School to compete for one student...

After this publicity, Zhongcheng High School will leave a higher impression on people.

...

As soon as Merlin returned to the classroom, Gwen waved to him happily from the back seat.

Merlin responded with a smile, and then looked at someone who surprised him a little, Peter Parker.

His face was a little pale, as if he had suffered a serious illness. When he saw Merlin enter the classroom, his eyes lit up.

"Peter, are you okay?" Merlin remained calm, just trying to find out why the other party had been chasing him last night.

As he walked in, a faint stench made him frown subconsciously.

"It's okay, I just have a cold." Peter shook his head and then started talking to Merlin enthusiastically.

...

"Do you know anything about cross-species regeneration genetic experiments?" Peter suddenly asked during the conversation.

"Cross-species regenerative genetic experiment? Lizard? Salamander?" Merlin raised his eyebrows and asked uncertainly.

"Yes, after visiting Professor Connors' experiment at Osborne Industries last time, I found that the problem might lie in the experimental algorithm."

"But I can't figure it out right now, so I want to ask if you have any research in this area."

Merlin: "..."

Well, he finally understood why Peter wanted to arrest him last night. It was probably because he thought he was too smart.

Merlin used to have some research on biology and he got along well with Peter.

But after the game came out, he rarely did research in this area.

I will not continue my research until games like Resident Evil or Prototype come out.

"Please send me an email. I'll take a look at it when I get back." Now that he understood everything, Merlin didn't worry about it anymore. Instead, he looked at Peter thoughtfully.

It is also a good idea to let the opponent act as a small BOSS to support a city plot mission.

I'll give him some salary when the time comes, and with Gwen and I watching over him, and his super strong physique and self-healing ability, there won't be any big problems.

...

A day of classes made Merlin a little drowsy, so he simply took out his notebook and started writing the onion website.

The platform will probably be built in three days, and then we'll wait until Saturday to recruit a few players to test the waters.

...

After school, Merlin and Gwen returned home. Seeing that there were not many vegetables left in the refrigerator, they had to go out to the mall to buy some more.

Gwen also went along halfway.

However, on his way home, a girl with heavy makeup and revealing clothes stopped him on the street.

"Hey, man, do you need any service? It's only thirty dollars, and I can do anything for you." The girl held a cigarette in her mouth and winked at Merlin seductively.

Merlin paused and pondered for a moment, "Okay, come with me."

Gwen in the back: "???"
