After being promoted to assistant to the president, Wang Tian's position level has been on par with the head of the department.

Above him, there are only twelve executive vice presidents, and Wang Tian is directly responsible to Edgar, and there is no need for other vice presidents.

Coupled with the superhero department, theoretically, his orders are to be obeyed by the people of the motherland.

Of course, theory is theory, as the captain of the Superman team, the strongest hero in the company, the motherland is like Erlang God who listens to the tune and does not listen to the announcement, and Madeline and Edgar can order him.

The former is the object of admiration of the motherland, and the latter is the biggest boss of the company.

Wang Tian is an assistant to the president, and they have no problem managing starlight and the deep sea, but they are thinking too much about the unruly motherland.

But that's enough, he can't control the motherland, and the motherland can't control him.

By the way, after the job level was promoted, Wang Tian also came into contact with more company insiders.

For example, the No. 5 compound laboratory on the 66th floor, where the currently known No. 5 compound is produced.

The superhero who protects the lab is called: The Golden Guardian.

Golden hair, golden battle clothes, golden eyes, golden cloak.

Only the belt is not gold but blue with an S written on it.

Wang Tian guessed that he was a pirated sentinel, just like the pirated superman of the motherland.

If his guess is correct, there is no doubt that this is another powerful hero, and the strength will not be weaker than that of the Motherland.

"Within the company, there are three places that need to be kept strictly confidential, the Compound Production Laboratory No. 5 at the headquarters, the Hoover Superpower Training Camp, and the Sage Grove Mental Illness Center."

"Needless to say, the former produces the company's most important products."

"One of the latter two is a place to transform superpowers, similar to a superhero school, and the other is a testing ground for mentally ill people to act as test subjects."

"The company wants to conquer the world and establish the Vought Federation, and these three places are the top priorities."

"With me here at the headquarters, there will be no problems, and the training camp and test site will no longer be as lax in management as before."

Looking at the No. 5 compound production line in front of him, Edgar said calmly: "You pick one, the establishment of the Walter Federation is inseparable from your dedication." ”

"Can I go and see both sides before I decide?"

"I'm going to find out which of these two secret bases is more helpful to our plan."

Wang Tian added here: "Your Excellency, what do you think of the motherland, I personally think that with the character of the motherland, he will not be of any help to our plan, and will even be counterproductive. ”

The motherland is too proud, he has always thought that he is the best in the world, and his arrogance makes him empty-eyed, dissatisfied that he is only the captain of the superman team.

He wanted to be the president of the Walter Corporation and become the real king.

If you let him know, the Walter Corporation is ready to create hundreds of superheroes that are not weaker than him to control the world.

Wang Tian felt that not only would he not support, but would destroy.

The first in the world is a false name, but also a temptation.

With the pride of the motherland, how can we allow hundreds of people like ourselves.

"The motherland will not be a problem, there are many people in the company who have long been dissatisfied with him, but he has always been cultivated as a banner in the past, and people are willing not to give up."

"In the future, we will have more powerful heroes like the motherland, who will give up on him if he doesn't know each other."

Edgar also has grievances against the people of his homeland.

It's just that Madeleine has been defending him, coupled with the signature character she has created over the years, and she has invested too much effort into it, and the company has never been able to make up its mind to abandon him.

Now it's different, and the Walter Corporation has a higher goal, determined to rule the world and establish a new Walter Federation.

On this path, no one cannot be sacrificed, and no one can stand in the way.

"Then I'll rest assured, I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, in fact, since I was a child, I have always been striving to join the Superman team and become the captain of the Superman team."

"If the motherland is no longer suitable to be the captain, please consider me with the senior management of the company, and I will definitely not let you down."

Wang Tian said half jokingly, half seriously.

"I will."

Edgar nodded lightly and handed Wang Tian a new identity card.

Afternoon...

Wang Tian left the company headquarters and went to the Sage Grove Mental Illness Center.

The Sage Grove Center, located in Boston's Blue Mountains Nature Preserve.

It's beautiful, off the beaten track, and rarely disturbed by the outside world.

The entire center covers an area of 800 acres and includes an administrative building, a medical building, a staff dormitory building, 24 warehouse-style wards, an artificial lake, an incineration plant, a power station, a shooting range, and a multi-purpose gymnasium.

The Sage Mental Illness Center is not open to the public.

It is managed in a closed manner, with more than 200 guards and 1,000 mentally ill people.

The origins of the patients are very complex, ranging from Europe and the United States, to Central Asia, to South Africa and North Africa.

What's even more unexpected is that the former head of the Sage Center is the storm girl who sings against the motherland.

"Hello Assistant Wang, I'm the acting head of the Sage Center, Sean."

In the administration building, Wang Tian saw the person in charge of the Sage Center after the Storm Girl left.

"Hello, Senpai."

Wang Tian shook hands with Sean and bit the word senior very hard.

The lamplighter glanced at him with some surprise, shook his head and said, "The lamplighter has retired, and there is only Sean here." ”

Few people know that Sean is one of the former Superman's Big Seven, the lamplighter who took off his mask.

He was tired of fighting and killing, and had a beloved woman and family, so he chose to retire from the Superman team and took over the Sage Center, which had a vacancy in high-end combat power after Storm Girl left.

"Okay Sean, introduce me here."

Wang Tian didn't pay much attention to the title.

Even he knew that Sean was not a good employee loyal to the Walter Company, and after taking off his mask and giving up the Scepter of Fire, he not only became more peaceful, but also kept repenting for the crimes he had committed over the years.

Surely, he will defect to the Walter Company in the future and join the camp of the black-robed pickets.

"The Sage Center, there are currently more than 1,100 mentally ill people." Sean's tone paused slightly: "Of course, this is official data, in fact, there are less than a hundred real mentally ill people, and more are not mentally ill, and we label them as mentally ill and use them as smugglers as experimental subjects." ”

Wang Tian frowned slightly: "Go on." ”

"Under the guise of a psychiatric research center, we conducted human experiments here to inject patients with an improved version of Compound Five, and to study how Compound Five responds to adults."

"The experimental effect is not very ideal, the best carrier of compound No. 5 is infants, and only babies in the development period can better absorb and fuse compound No. 5."

"Rejection in adults is very strong, and very few patients can carry three courses of treatment, which is a month of injection."

"There are people dying here every day, and sometimes the incinerator even runs 24 hours a day."

"There are many people who have died, and there are also people who have passed the injection period and successfully awakened their superpowers."

"It's just that the probability is very low, less than one percent, the sage center has been established for more than ten years, and there are only 117 successful people, but the death toll is more than 30,000."

Accompanied by Sean, Wang Tian inspected the psychiatric ward.

"Let me out, I'm not mentally ill, you must be mistaken, I was smuggled here from Brother Ximo to work."

"I'm going to call, I'm a district chief of Tang Kingdom, my name is Ding Yizhen, I'm here to take refuge in the United States, who are you, why did you arrest me here?"

"I'm rich, I'm a millionaire, please let me out, I'm willing to give you a lot of money."

In the warehouse-style rectangular ward, there are many people in white hospital gowns.

Wang Tian walked in front of the warehouse door with an expressionless face, many people here were asking for help, obviously they were not mentally ill, but were brought in by Walter Company by various means.

"Why not really be mentally ill?" Looking at the prison-like cage, Wang Tian couldn't help but ask.

"It's really mentally ill, it's hard to cooperate with our experiments." Sean lowered his voice: "And our consumption rate here is too high, thousands of people die a year, how can there be so many mental illnesses for us?" ”

Wang Tian nodded silently.

The Sage Center is the research institute of the Walter Corporation, and anyone who enters here, whether you are mentally ill or not, should not want to go out again.

If all the mentally ill are used, not to mention whether the number of mentally ill patients is enough, even if it is enough, with such a high mortality rate, the patient's family should make a fuss.

This is not the case with illegal immigrants, who themselves are illegally transiting through the border, whose names are not on the files of the United States.

Even if a family member comes to look for it, it is also to find the police first, and this kind of missing person case often becomes a headless public case, and no one remembers it after a year and a half.

"Take good care of them, if they let them escape, you know the consequences."

"Rest assured, there are more than two hundred guards here, and there is also a squad of superpowers, and no one will be able to escape."

Sean reassured.

"Go and show me the superpowers after the experiment is successful."

Wang Tian didn't want to look any further, most of the people in the warehouse-style ward were ordinary people, they were like guinea pigs, waiting to be taken away for experiments.

Compared with these poor people, Wang Tian wanted to see those special patients who had passed the experimental stage and already had superpowers.

"Please, the superpower test subjects are in the medical building, they are extremely aggressive, and they need to be locked up in a specially built room."

Sean took Wang Tian to the medical building, and in the monitoring room of the medical building, he saw the special patients who were imprisoned.

They sit in special cells, some reading newspapers, others playing games, and they seem to be treated much better than ordinary prisoners.

"After death and elimination, there are currently 64 special prisoners in the medical building, including men and women, old and young, who are being held in two places, the ordinary protection area and the key protection area, according to their strength level."

"In the ordinary protection area, there are a total of 55 patients imprisoned, their awakened superpowers are relatively weak, and they are all garbage heroes with low threat levels outside."

"In the key protection area, there are 9 special patients imprisoned, and their awakened superpowers are very strong, most of them have reached the level of first- and second-tier superheroes, and a few are not even weaker than the members of the superman team."

"Especially this girl, her name is Sindy, I think her ability is not weaker than me and Storm Girl, but she has very little combat experience, and she can't fully show her strength yet."

Following Sean's gaze, Wang Tian looked at room 1.

In the room, a bald girl was half-squatting on the ground, not reading, not reading a newspaper, not even watching TV, just sitting there in a quiet daze.

"Is she mentally ill?" Wang Tian asked rhetorically.

"It's a bit of schizophrenia." Sean added: "She was locked up by us, she has been here for more than three years, and as a dangerous patient, she has been locked in a cell for a long time, and she is a normal person who would get schizophrenia. ”

"What's her superpower?"

"Telekinesis."

Sean looked at Cindy and then at Wang Tian: "It's very similar to your ability, she can clench her fists and directly pinch people out." ”

"Interesting!"

Wang Tian became interested and ordered: "Let someone bring her over, I want to meet her." ”

"This..."

Sean hesitated slightly: "She's out of control, I'm worried..."

"I'm here, don't be afraid."

Wang Tian thought for a while and then said, "That's it, I'll go in person." ”
