Chapter 198 The new world is chosen! (Ask for monthly ticket)
"In just one night, the [Log Cabin] organization successfully arrested more than two hundred superhumans across the United States. Shockingly, a quarter of them were actually students at Godokin University!"
"The police work closely with [The Log House] to closely monitor these superhuman criminals. According to the New York Attorney General, all the evidence provided by [The Log House] is ironclad, indicating that if this trial goes smoothly, it will become the history of superhuman crimes." An unprecedented case."
"According to Congressman Newman, head of the White House Superhuman Affairs Office and special spokesperson for Log Cabin Company, Vought Corporation and its Gordokin University have become a breeding ground for superhuman crimes. He calls on all citizens not to treat superhumans If you are afraid, you should be brave enough to report those superheroes who violate laws and regulations to [Wooden House]!”
"."
In the Vought Company's Super Seven base, the atmosphere was solemn and depressing.
There was no expression on Edgar's dark face, and his eyes slowly scanned the surrounding Super Seven members.
Homelander, Queen Maeve, Starlight, Deep Sea. Gone.
The seven-member team that was hailed as world stars a few months ago and drove Vought's stock price to unprecedented peaks now only has four people left.
The Invisible Man had two C4 bombs inserted from behind his butt and exploded to death. Then Storm Girl, who took his place, was accused of being a Nazi remnant and died in an unknown place.
Black and Locomotive have been imprisoned because the dirty work they had done was exposed.
When he saw these two people on TV, the black hands and feet had been cut off, and their bodies were covered with blood holes. They relied on their superhuman physical strength to survive.
As for the locomotive, that guy has become a mentally ill man talking to himself, acting crazy and suffering from great mental stimulation.
Edgar knew with his butt that all this was done by the bastards in the cabin, but what made him unbelievable and couldn't figure it out was - where did Lango get so many superhuman helpers?
It would be fine if he did it himself, but he saw the news from Newman, the undercover agent he sent, who stayed in the company all night.
Although the outflow of No. 5 Compound is a fact, it is by no means sufficient to support the rapid expansion of [Wooden House].
"Mr. Edgar?"
Starlight's voice broke the silence, and she asked tentatively: "You called all of us here. Do you have something to announce?"
Ed took a deep breath and looked at Starlight with complex eyes.
Originally, his plan was to rely on starlight as a link to draw Lango into Walter's company and balance the rights of the people of the motherland, but now that guy has become the president of the wooden house and is completely opposite to Walter.
Therefore, he was filled with disgust for this star who called Lango his teacher.
But the other party has now surpassed the people of the motherland and become the most famous superhero of Watt Company. The approval rate among women exceeds 80%. It is the company's biggest profit point in the near future. Even he, the president, cannot easily offend him.
Edgar forced out a smile and announced in a serious tone: "I have a very important decision to inform everyone."
His eyes swept between the remaining four Super Seven members, with unquestionable determination in his eyes, "From now on, if your every move outside violates the law and morality, the company will no longer serve you." Provide expensive public relations support or reach a settlement with the victim. I hope you can be a real superhero from now on.”
As soon as these words came out, except for Starlight and Queen Maeve, the expressions of the other two people present changed significantly, especially Deep Sea, who immediately wanted to ask a few questions.
As the most loyal dog leg of the motherland, he has done a lot of dirty work for the other party. If he is exposed and has no protection from the company, he is likely to become the next Black or Locomotive.
"Mr. Edgar"
"No need to say more."
Edgar glanced at him coldly and continued, "The company has been under tremendous pressure recently. The board of directors has decided to reorganize the Super Seven to select untainted and genuine superheroes. At present, in addition to Starlight and Maeve, Except for the queen, you and the people of the motherland are on the list of purges. I advise you to be careful in your words and actions! "
After hearing this, the originally expressionless motherland man clenched his fists quietly and looked at Edgar in disbelief, as if he had heard an incredible sentence, "What did you just say?"
Edgar narrowed his eyes slightly and said cautiously: "Don't do stupid things, my motherland. This is the decision of the board of directors, not my opinion."
The motherland man looked at each other angrily, and at this moment, what Lange said before suddenly came to his mind.
Kill these ignorant company executives, use blood and fire, and gain shock and awe.
At this thought, red light slowly appeared in his eyes, as if he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and wanted to cut and slaughter the other party like a pig.
He could tolerate the company no longer covering up scandals for superhumans, but he couldn't stand the neglect of these ordinary people. He was a native of the motherland! The most beloved superhero!
Bang bang bang——!
But at this moment, a burst of applause suddenly came from outside the corridor.
Immediately afterwards, Lango appeared in their sights with Senator Newman smiling.
"What Mr. Edgar just said is so right."
Lange smiled and pointed at the people at the table and Shen Hai, "Be a real superhero, improve your moral bottom line, and use your super powers reasonably within the legal framework. This is what you bunch of bastards should do most. ”
The moment Shenhai saw him, his legs closed tightly. Because of this guy, he was now a pervert who couldn't stand up to women and could only play with octopuses.
He quickly looked at the people of the motherland with righteous indignation, hoping that he would stand up and fight back, but unfortunately, the people of the motherland obviously had no such idea.
"What are you doing here?" The motherland man looked at Lange and asked calmly. "Hahaha, I think this has nothing to do with you."
Then, Lango turned to Edgar, with a bit of playfulness in his eyes, "You invited me to negotiate, and you brought four bodyguards with you?"
Edgar's expression remained unchanged and his tone was firm: "Both the Motherland, Queen Maeve and Starlight are the most valuable assets of Walter Company, and they are very suitable here."
After speaking, he waved casually towards the deep sea.
"What?"
Shen Hai looked around unhappily and found that almost everyone present was ignoring him. He gritted his teeth and reluctantly left his seat and went out of the base meeting room.
After the guy left, Edgar spoke again, his tone becoming more cordial: "Lango, can I call you that?"
"certainly."
Lango found a chair and sat down. After smiling at Starlight opposite him, he glanced at Queen Maeve who was dressed like Wonder Woman.
I always felt that something was wrong with the way this woman looked at me.
He coughed lightly and went straight to the point: "Our time is precious, so just say what you have to say. There are hundreds of superhuman criminals imprisoned in my company, and we are very busy."
This black old man called his office early this morning and said that he had some business matters that he wanted to negotiate with him.
"Rango."
Edgar stared at the man in front of him and said in a serious tone: "Let's make a condition. As long as you stop targeting Walter, we can sign a series of business cooperation agreements with the wooden house. You know that the wooden house also has many superhuman resources. , and Walt has a vast media platform and we can make your superhumans stars on television and create huge commercial value for the cabin.”
He banged the table while talking, trying to seduce Lango with benefits: "How much does the government allocate to you every year? Do you know how much Starlight's salary is for each movie now? 30 plus 30!"
"As long as you agree, all of Walter's media platforms can be opened to you. Think about it, with the superhumans you own, how much money can you make if you can produce a few big stars like Starlight?"
"."
After hearing this, Lango looked at the other party speechlessly. He first raised a finger, "First of all, I must clarify that I have no ill intentions towards Walter. I am only targeting those superhumans who wantonly trample on the law."
"Secondly. Why do you think everything I do is to make money?"
Lange spread his hands and looked at the people at the table, "I'm not like you guys. For me, as long as the money is enough, what I pursue is to maintain social order and justice. My moral bottom line is perhaps better than It's much higher than you think."
Edgar's face instantly darkened, and he said coldly: "I am negotiating with you on behalf of Walter just because I don't want the situation to worsen. I hope you can clearly understand what kind of situation you are facing. Such an opponent.”
"Yeah. A pharmaceutical and media giant with a market value of over one trillion, don't worry Edgar, I know exactly what I'm doing."
Lange smiled nonchalantly, "However, I don't know if you can say what you just said after reading this information."
As he spoke, he winked at Representative Newman, who smiled and handed a heavy document to Edgar.
Edgar frowned and took the file and quickly flipped through it. After a moment, his originally calm expression became extremely stiff.
"Bang!" Edgar closed the document suddenly and glared at Lango: "Do you want to completely start a war with us?"
"Oh oh oh" Lange immediately raised his hands as if surrendering. He shook his head and smiled: "Don't say it's so serious, this is just a precautionary measure. After all, I have to be prepared. With this 'insurance', I Only then can I feel at ease and prevent you from doing anything extreme.”
"."
Edgar tapped his fingers quickly on the document, and the other party actually found evidence that they imprisoned living people for human research. If this was exposed, he, the president, would definitely be the first unlucky guy.
He took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and asked in a deep voice: "What are your conditions?"
After Lango was silent for a moment, he shook his head slightly: "As for the conditions, we will have plenty of time to talk slowly in the future. Now, you just need to remember that it is us who have the initiative, not you."
After saying that, he stood up from his chair. As for the document, there were countless copies in the company, so he had no interest in taking it back. He glanced at the silent motherland and left the conference room directly.
He had made a decision with Teddy last night and would go back to the new world in the next two days.
The Vought Company can use Compound No. 5 to mass-produce superhuman beings. Who knows if it will create a few more monsters on the same level as the people of the motherland.
During his absence, he had the handle on Walter's biggest scandal, so he could feel more at ease before leaving.
The new world, with the help of Yuumi, has been carefully selected through the magic book. There are many strong and powerful people gathered there, and more importantly, most of them uphold the principles of justice and integrity.
For me, it couldn't be more suitable.
