"Boss, Daisy is currently being held in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s prison cell.
Because of this, Daisy doesn't have a good impression of S.H.I.E.L.D., so now is a good time to make a move.
If you can make a move and rescue her, performing a hero saving the beauty.
By then, you will definitely leave an indelible good impression in Daisy's heart."
Hearing Lauren say he wanted to win Daisy over, Alice immediately started offering Lauren advice.
Listening to her speak so logically, who would have thought she was just an artificial intelligence; she's practically a master of romance.
"A fine hero saving the beauty indeed, Alice, where did you learn all these methods for picking up girls?" Lauren asked with a look between laughter and tears.
"Of course, I learned them from you, Boss! You taught by example! If I couldn't even learn this, wouldn't I be tarnishing your name?"
"My name? What name?" Lauren looked bewildered; when did he get a name, and how come he didn't know.
"Aren't you going to become the technological overlord? Your name is naturally 'Tech Overlord'!" Alice said seriously.
"...." Lauren.
Listening to Alice's words, Lauren was almost speechless to the point of spitting blood.
This artificial intelligence, Alice, is getting more and more out of line; she even knows how to tease him now.
You know, official complaints are the most fatal!
"Alright, stop being cheeky with me. Send Natasha a message saying I know."
Ever since he pinned Natasha down on her office desk and had a crazy session with her last time, that woman was completely conquered by him.
Although she is still a S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent now, she is clearly in a state of 'being in Cao's camp but having her heart in Han'.
It can't be said that Natasha betrayed S.H.I.E.L.D. because of him, but her loyalty to S.H.I.E.L.D. has indeed decreased significantly.
Especially after the Battle of New York, Lauren clearly had No. 18 resist the alien army's invasion.
But Nick Fury not only didn't thank Lauren, he actually still regarded him as a threat.
Thus, she began to have doubts about Nick Fury's orders.
She even started to doubt whether the superior in front of her was truly the Nick Fury she had known before.
And as soon as this thought appeared, it took root in her mind like a virus, making it impossible for her to shake off.
So much so that she began to actively contact Lauren, and thus, the current situation came about.
From beginning to end, Lauren never asked Natasha to betray S.I.H.I.E.L.D., nor did he ask her to become his informant.
To be honest, Lauren didn't need to make Natasha his informant either.
Because the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. security system was like paper mache in front of Alice.
If Lauren wanted to know about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s situation, it was simply too easy; he could do it with minimal effort.
However, since Natasha was so proactive, there was naturally no reason for him to refuse.
Others are delivering themselves to the door, why not take it!
"Okay, the message has been encrypted and sent."
"Mm, very good. Then I should start acting too. It's been a while since I went to play around at S.H.I.E.L.D.," Lauren said with a smile.
Hearing this, Alice immediately corrected him: "Boss, you really are forgetful like a busy person. You just went to S.H.I.E.L.D. to play with Natasha last week, and you played quite roughly."
"...." Lauren.
"Alice, no one will think you're mute if you don't speak. If you keep talking back, believe it or not, I'll turn off your voice function?" Lauren said irritably.
"Boss, I was wrong, I won't dare again. Please don't turn off my voice function. I'm a chatterbox, it would be too uncomfortable if I couldn't talk."
"Heh, so you know you're a chatterbox?" Hearing Alice's words, Lauren was so annoyed he started laughing.
"Of course, I have that much self-awareness. Not only do I know I'm a chatterbox, I also know you, Boss, are an LSP!"
"..." Lauren.
Although Alice is an artificial intelligence, her level of anthropomorphism is almost indistinguishable from a real person.
All she lacks now is a physical body. If she were given one, she'd probably have more fun than anyone else, perhaps even surpassing 2B!
While bickering and chatting with Alice, Lauren waved his hand, and instantly a spatial wormhole appeared before him.
And the place the spatial wormhole connected to was precisely the S.H.I.E.L.D. Base's dungeon.
As the spatial wormhole opened, the first thing that came into view was a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. members staring at him with wide eyes.
Among them, Nick Fury's and Coulson's eyes were the widest, because they knew very well that if Lauren showed up uninvited, nothing good would come of it!
Especially Nick Fury, while his eyes were wide open, there was also a hint of weariness in them. He was just short of saying to Lauren, 'Are you ever going to stop?'
"Yo, everyone's here! Have you eaten?"
Lauren walked into the spatial wormhole with a playful smile, appearing directly in front of Nick Fury, and then said some irrelevant things.
And looking at Lauren who suddenly appeared before him, Nick Fury secretly clenched his fists, looking like he wanted to get angry but didn't dare.
"Mr. Lauren, you suddenly grace us with your presence without a word, there must be something important, right?"
Although he was furious about Lauren's arrogant and defiant behavior, he dared not do anything at this moment.
No matter how angry he was, he had to try hard to suppress it.
Because he clearly knew that although Lauren in front of him looked playful.
But once something wasn't to his liking, the consequences would be very serious; he might even slaughter them directly.
Thus, no matter how unhappy he was at this moment, he had to put on a smiling face.
Seeing Nick Fury's forced smile, Lauren felt a wave of amusement.
I have to say, this Black Egg is truly capable of enduring; this level of forbearance is quite admirable.
As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling person. Since Nick Fury was so sensible, there was naturally no need for him to deliberately make things difficult for him.
So he put away his playful smile, revealing a serious expression, and said: "You guessed right, I really do have two important matters to discuss with you."
"Two matters?!!!" Hearing Lauren mention two important matters right away, Nick Fury was instantly taken aback.
He inwardly thought, 'This is bad, this kid is going to make a huge demand!'
You should know that before this, one matter from him was enough to take their old lives. Now he's asking for two, how could he not be shocked?
"What's wrong? Looking at you, it seems you have a lot of opinions?" Lauren sneered, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
And hearing his sneer, Nick Fury's heart immediately skipped a beat.
He quickly explained: "Mr. Lauren, that's not what I meant, I was just purely curious."
"That's more like it!" Lauren nodded with a smile, then continued: "Don't worry, I didn't come here today to cause you trouble.
On the contrary, I'm here to give you benefits. Given your good performance during this period, I've decided to reward you with a divine artifact."
"Reward us with a divine artifact?" Listening to Lauren's words, the group of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents became increasingly confused.
Before they could figure out what was going on, Lauren raised his hand and waved.
Instantly, a scepter embedded with a yellow gem appeared in his hand, and this scepter was precisely the Mind Stone scepter he had snatched from Loki.
"Shit, what are you doing?!!"
Seeing that Lauren had actually taken out the Mind Stone scepter, all the Avengers and Agents present were so frightened that they collectively took a step back.
Because they were all too aware of the power of this Mind Stone scepter; it was capable of controlling the consciousness of living beings.
And Lauren was not a good person, so naturally, they were afraid.
