90 Chapter: 90

Reluctantly, Fury took off the headband—or rather, the Artificial White Eye. He couldn't remember how many years it had been since he last saw the world around him so clearly. Back when his left eye was injured by the Flerken, he still had thick hair on his head and could be considered quite a handsome young man. Experiencing this again today almost brought tears of nostalgia to his middle-aged eyes.

But at that moment, Mark stopped him and said, "Hey! Don't take it off yet. You haven't fully experienced it."

"Not fully experienced it? Does this Artificial White Eye have other functions?" Fury asked, pleasantly surprised.

To be honest, even if he had only tried the features he experienced just now, even if Mark had asked for an astronomical price and demanded all of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s technological data, Fury would still trade for this device. With the Artificial White Eye, it was like having a special agent with a full field of view. He would no longer fear surprise attacks, and it would be extremely effective against overwhelming enemies.

Now Mark was saying that it had even more functions. Regardless of how practical they were, Fury's shopping desire had already been completely ignited. After the demonstration was over, he was determined to complete the transaction with Mark.

"That's right, it has other functions. Since we're already going all out, having just a full field of view isn't enough. We need to have a bird's-eye view to truly become top-notch. Try double-tapping any part of the headband."

After listening to Mark's instructions, Fury quickly put the headband back on and double-tapped it on his forehead as instructed.

Indeed, after completing the action, Fury's perspective changed once again. Instead of being centered around himself with no blind spots, it now spread out from above, allowing him to overlook everything within a kilometer—every blade of grass and every tree.

The principle of this function was actually very similar to the 360-degree surround-view system in cars. The holographic scanning array in the headband's outer ring would capture a panoramic image of the surrounding one-kilometer area, which would then be seamlessly stitched together and displayed in real-time, giving Fury the bird's-eye view he was currently experiencing.

"Try double-tapping the headband continuously. There's another surprise!" Seeing Fury stumbling around like a wave, Mark knew that he had lost his balance due to the perspective switch. He quickly urged Fury to switch to the next function.

Hearing Mark's voice once again, Fury managed to regain his composure, as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. he couldn't afford to lose face here. He raised his hand and quickly double-tapped the headband, and once again, his perspective swiftly changed. It felt as if he had rapidly descended from mid-air to the ground, causing his heart to race.

However, he soon noticed something unusual about this new scene. He seemed to be observing the world with two eyes!

"Hahaha, have you discovered the surprise I prepared? This is an upgraded function specifically designed for you. As long as the visual center of your brain is intact, whether you have nearsightedness, astigmatism, or even blindness, you can use the Artificial White Eye to restore normal or even extraordinary visual abilities."

"Since the core processor no longer needs to process the full field of view image information, the remaining computational power can be used to render color and correct the transmitted images, thereby providing a sensory experience similar to normal vision. I'm planning to release this function separately as a new product in the medical field during the next press conference."

"It seems you were right. This is truly the most suitable invention among the three today for me.

I never thought that one day I would regain my vision without my left eye ."

"This is the power of knowledge, the power of science. By combining brainwave technology with mechanical technology, we can not only help disabled individuals regain normalcy in the virtual world but also restore their health in the real world."

"I look forward to the day when I can see that happen. At that time, I will show the utmost respect and gratitude to all the agents who have been disabled in the line of duty." As he spoke, Fury even saluted Mark, making Mark feel a bit embarrassed.

"Don't be like that, it's awkward. The Artificial White Eye has one final function. Give it a try as well, just triple-tap the headband at any position."

Triple-tapping the headband at any position activates the targeting feature of the Artificial White Eye. Taking reference from the Dominator's auxiliary targeting function, when the user is using firearms, bows and arrows, or other throwing weapons, a targeting reticle will automatically appear in their field of view. The reticle moves based on the user's aiming position, providing feedback on where the shot is likely to land.

Mark led Fury outside, and Fury couldn't wait to take out his handgun from his coat. He aimed at three falling leaves in the distance and fired three shots in succession.

In the past, even if his marksmanship was excellent, Fury wouldn't have been confident enough to hit leaves drifting in the wind, let alone achieve a three-shot combo.

But with the targeting feature of the Artificial White Eye, it was different. Fury only needed to adjust his aim according to the retina's position. For someone with his shooting experience, it was impossible to miss such simple shots.

Sure enough, as the three shots rang out, the three leaves shattered in response. Without a doubt, all three bullets hit the target.

After the trial, Mark had showcased all the inventions he had brought for the trade. At this moment, there was only one thought in Fury's mind.

Mark's three inventions, whether in terms of creativity, technical difficulty, or practicality, could be described as flawless and invaluable.

Quickly running through all the trade options he currently had in his mind, Fury realized that he couldn't come up with an equivalent bargaining chip. "I need some time to consider this trade. I will come back to you tomorrow, and I believe that the list I provide will definitely contain the technology you desire."
