Fixing up the facilities and having a bit of fun.

Walking out of the Stark Tower, I headed to back to the factory district to check up and fix the factories. The whole area is all mine, expect in name.

Arriving at the district, I asked The Great Sage for a detailed report of the area.

{12 factory sites. 3 fully equipped with basic facilities. None left with any machinery. 36 warehouses. Currently empty.}

"That's kinda depressing, I thought I could find some secret stash from the previous users." I lament.

"Well anyways, time for spring cleaning." I say as I extend my arms in front of me and huge ball shaped liquid oozes out. It eventually breaks of from my body when it reaches the size of a basketball. This repeats multiple times, until eventually, I could see 50 slimes standing in 5 neat rows in front of me.

"Great Sage, transfer a part of yourself into these 50 offshoots temporarily."

{On it.} comes her reply.

"Now, you guys will be split into five groups. A through to E. Group A and B, spilt up and start cleaning up any dust and dirt around and in the factories and warehouses.

Group C and D, you guys are on scaffolding duty. Fix any part of the walls, ceiling of scaffolding that you see damaged, fix it. After fixing it, follow the improved plans Great Sage has created and build each location accordingly.

Now go." I order.

"Now for Group E, you guys are on digging duty. Under this factory area. There is an abandoned tunnel system from way back when New York was being built. Seal up the damaged entrance properly and expand the tunnels towards the sea area. Kill any pests that might have gathered there. Strengthen the ceilings and remove any redundant walls. The entrance for this underground area would be north of this factory area. Now go."

.

I repeat the previous replication process, but this time with 500 slimes.

"Split up into 5 groups and scour the seas and oceans discreetly and report back if you find any sunken ships, planes, submarines, ore veins of any metals in large quantities or secret bases of any organisation, past or present.

If you find any secret facilities, report back immediately and do not engage. If you find anything else. Well. Devour.

One last thing. If you find species that is rare to be seen on the surface, engage and devour. If you are too weak to take it on individually, call reinforcements and track it silently. Engage by ganging up on it.

That's all. Now go." I order all in a single breath like a military drill instructor.

As soon as I finish the orders, the slimes turn around and start moving towards the North Atlantic Ocean at a breakneck speed in rows of 5.

"This scene kinda reminds me something I saw back in my previous life. A stream of white coloured slime shooting towards water, ouch."

Zappp.

{Stop it, you disgusting freak. Say another word and ill electrocute you again.} snapped great sage, while giving me a million-volt jolt through my smart watch, AKA her current place of residence.

"Just joking, geez, did you have to do that. Just because I'm immune to electrical attacks doesn't mean I don't feel the pain. Felt like you just tased me."

{You're lucky I'm in a digital form or else I would have bitch slapped you to the next universe. Tsk.}

Waiting for the slimes that were working on the factories and warehouses to finish up, I sat down and removed a laptop from my subspace.

Click, click, tap, tap, tap…

Typing in code after code on the laptop, a live video feed appeared on screen.

A man in a black leather jacket could be see sitting in front of his laptop, typing away.

Saving a recording of this scene, I sent it to the very man on the screen, along with a message,

'Greetings, Mr Fury. My name is Lucifer Cerous Leukos. It seems your current security systems are very weak. I am currently contacting you for a once in a lifetime opportunity to upgrade your online security. I have temporarily blocked the attempted infiltration by the terrorist organisation by the name of Ten Rings. Contact me if you would like to employ my services. Thank you.'

And send.

.

.

As expected, the message went through, and when Fury saw his computer was hacked and saw his own face typing away on his computer, his face contorted.

Sounding the alarm immediately, alarms blared, and red light flashed throughout the building.

"Coulson, look into the message I just received. Verify who the hacker is, and check if we were actually under attack by the Ten Rings. Check the servers and find the Motherfu**** who hacked our system." Roared Fury in fury.

"Yes, sir." A voice responded through the intercom.

..

A huge facility in the middle of Mojave Desert, Nevada, was glowing red. Alarms blaring, soldiers running around and boarding jets and helicopters, the place was hectic.

A dozen aerial vehicles took off and travelled to the same direction, towards one Lucifer Cerous Leukos, who was currently sitting on a rock on an isolated beach, enjoying the scene of a setting sun over the vast ocean.
