My blood?
Hawk raised an eyebrow, listening to Anna's still somewhat cautious tone on the other end of the phone.
So…
HYDRA?
Hawk's heart stirred.
Then he recalled the faint sense of being watched from the sky after he eliminated that little dark one, just before he went to Quantico Base.
The next second.
Hawk chuckled inwardly.
It was still the same saying: he didn't make friends based on their alignment, only on their attitude.
Mm.
I only need your attitude.
"Alright."
"Ah."
Anna on the other end of the phone seemed not to have expected Hawk to agree so readily, sounding a bit disbelieving.
Hawk smiled.
"But how much do you need? Don't tell me you need a whole barrel; even if you drained me dry, it probably wouldn't be enough."
"No, no, just one tube will do."
"One tube?"
Hawk raised an eyebrow again at her words, then said with a smile, "One tube probably isn't enough. I'll give you two hundred milliliters. When the meteorite arrives for the exchange, you can arrange for someone to draw it yourselves."
Regardless of the reason, if HYDRA was generous, he would certainly not be stingy.
After all, his strength came from his Little Universe, especially after igniting Phoenix, he could truly say this.
As long as the Little Universe endured, Hawk would not die. Even if he died one second, he would be reborn from the ashes under Phoenix's starlight and return again.
So…
It's just blood, isn't it?
What's the big deal?
However, Hawk thought for a moment and added to Anna on the phone.
"Anna, I've always been very generous to my friends."
"Thank you!"
Anna probably didn't expect Hawk to be so generous, even thoughtful enough to let them arrange for someone to come draw the blood. Her voice became a little excited, but she quickly thought of something and her voice became cautious again: "Mi… Hawk, aren't you worried we'll misuse your blood?"
Hawk laughed.
"You plan to use my blood to clone me?"
"What? No, definitely not."
"That's good then."
Hawk, who had been online using satellites to check the terrain near Calver Lake, New Jersey, glanced at his phone, which was on speaker beside him: "As long as it's not cloning, I don't care what else you use my blood for."
Just as Gwen said.
It's always the person who kills, not the weapon.
Anna gave him the meteorite, and he gave Anna his blood. The transaction was complete. As for what Anna did with his blood, that was Anna's business.
In fact, even if Anna used his blood to see if she could clone anything, Hawk didn't really care.
However…
He just found it a bit awkward, so he mentioned it beforehand to avoid a cloned Hawk appearing, which would likely ruin their friendship.
"I have only one request for you: don't mess with my clone. If our friendship ends because of it, don't blame me."
"We won't, you can rest assured on that point."
Anna quickly promised.
Hawk hummed in acknowledgment, preparing to end the call: "Tell me when the iron meteorite is ready. I'm not in a hurry; just have it ready before Christmas."
Anna acknowledged.
Hawk didn't say anything further, directly hung up the phone, grabbed his cell phone, edited the number he had just called, and then saved it to his contacts.
His contacts list only had four people.
First, his girlfriend Gwen.
Second, his counselor Mrs. Snow.
Third, Spider-Woman Peter.
Fourth, HYDRA? Anna.
That was it.
Actually, if Gwen were to pick up his phone and look at his contacts, she would know Spider-Man's true identity.
Because Hawk had edited the contacts with such remarks.
After saving Anna's phone number with her name and suspected affiliation in his contacts, Hawk no longer concerned himself with the matter, instead continuing to focus on the satellite map on his computer screen.
Hulk!
Hawk's eyes flickered.
During those days of diligently practicing punches ten thousand times daily, he made two preparations.
The first preparation was naturally hoping that the activated Little Universe would be as he imagined, because if it was, he would have the ability to complete his revenge on his own.
But he also prepared a second option, which was the path of a lawyer.
If his cheat didn't awaken powerfully, or if this was just a dream, then he could still achieve his revenge plan through the lawyer's path.
That was the path from lawyer to judge that Hawk had prepared for himself.
Although this path might take a very long time to achieve revenge, and there was also a chance of failure.
But it was better than doing nothing at all.
However…
This path was no longer needed.
He no longer needed to rely on external forces; he could now achieve revenge with his own strength.
However, Hulk was too good at hiding.
After Hawk bought the computer from Skye, he had thought about finding Hulk, but Hulk was a master of hide-and-seek.
General Ross, using the Military's power, couldn't find Hulk, let alone him alone.
However, considering that General Ross still hadn't found him, Hawk now somewhat doubted General Ross's hide-and-seek skills.
But that was no longer the point.
Hulk would appear at a location he knew this Christmas holiday, and that was good enough.
This time, Hawk wouldn't let Hulk get away.
During the Battle of New York three months ago, Hawk had actually seen Hulk, and upon seeing Hulk, he had considered going up to take revenge.
But…
He wanted revenge, but he wasn't foolish. At that time, he had just awakened his Little Universe, and Phoenix hadn't been ignited. Moreover, Hulk was not only with the Avengers but also Thor.
Given the situation at the time, if Hawk had gone up, Thor would have 100% helped Hulk, not him.
So Hawk suppressed the urge to rush up for revenge at that time.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years.
He had waited over a thousand days; what difference would a few more days make?
Hawk had a plan.
He originally intended to first gather his Phoenix saint cloth, and then seek revenge on Hulk.
The reason was simple!
Once the Phoenix saint cloth was assembled, even if Thor returned from Asgard, with the saint cloth on, he wouldn't be afraid.
Now, his saint cloth hadn't been assembled, but Hulk appeared first?
This…
This was great.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
Since you're here, then be buried here.
Hawk looked at the satellite map on the computer screen, his eyes slightly narrowed.
"Anya…"
"Just wait a little longer. This Christmas, I will send Hulk to hell to accompany you."
"Then you tell Mephisto, if he dares to bully you, the day your brother can go to hell, I will flatten his hell!"
"…"
