Chapter 136: Attacking Black-robed Pickets
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has been a month since Wang Tian came to Philadelphia.
After the initial repression, with the cooperation of the Bununo family.
The metropolis of eight million people quickly regained its tranquility, and there was very little place to need a king.
He is more likely to attend various events or go to TV stations to be a guest.
It is worth mentioning that there are currently four supervillains in the United States.
The Storm Girl who has killed countless people.
The green-skinned man who destroys everything after his anger.
A lightning-fast iron that runs as fast as lightning.
Dr. Octopus, who crisscrosses the seas and often hijacks ships.
Obviously, this is Walter Corporation's opponents for its superheroes.
Storm Girl corresponds to the Motherland, Greenskin corresponds to Queen Maeve, Fast Rail corresponds to Locomotive, and Doctor Octopus corresponds to the Deep Sea.
Wang Tian guessed that it would be his and Starlight's opponent next.
It's just that I haven't waited for the opponent yet, and I have waited for a bad news first.
"My name is Billy Butcher, and I worked for the CIA's Special Agents Monitoring Group, which is a special department that specializes in monitoring and vetting superheroes."
"At present, I have left my job and set up my personal team, the Black Robe Picket."
"There must be a lot of people who wonder what we're picketing, let me tell you the answer, it's a superhero."
"After my investigation, I found that the so-called superheroes, the chosen ones, are not as great as the Walt Company describes."
"They're nothing more than a batch of laboratory products, produced by a special drug called Compound 5."
"There are no natural superpowers, and there is no so-called savior, there are just hoaxes."
Butcher appeared on the talk show with a small blue vial in his hand: "This is Compound 5, and the superpowers exist because of it." ”
Silent.
Wang Tian looked at Butcher in front of the camera, and then shifted his gaze to his mobile phone.
One second, five seconds, ten seconds...
Bell bell bell ...
Soon his cell phone rang, and the caller read: Vice President Madeleine.
"Did you see the news?"
"See, the other party said in an orderly manner, and took out the No. 5 compound, I wonder why so long has passed, the headquarters has not disposed of the black-robed pickets, you won't really push the death of the transparent person onto the storm girl, forget that the black-robed pickets did it, right?"
"They're a bunch of rats in the sewers, and rats are always good at hiding."
"And then, they broke the shocking news, and I guess everyone is discussing now whether superheroes are born or catalyzed by drugs, and as a vice president, you should understand the impact on the company, right?"
"Of course I know, the emergency handling department has begun to follow up, and I want to ask, the finished product of compound 5 is currently only available to you, the motherland, the locomotive, and Xuanse, Deep Sea and Starlight don't know that there is such a thing, where did the No. 5 compound in their hands come from?"
Wang Tian glanced at the three blue bottle potions on the bookcase, and asked rhetorically, "Are you suspicious of me?" ”
"No, just asking, who do you think leaked it?"
"Let's go check our dear captain, and check the locomotive, although I don't have any evidence, but if there is a leak of compound 5, the two of them are the most suspicious."
"Why?"
"The captain is unruly and likes to challenge the law, and there is nothing he doesn't dare to do."
"As for the locomotive, this man is simple-minded, scheming, and likes to be, I don't even know what you guys think about giving compound 5 to this idiot."
Wang Tian breathed a sigh of relief and said earnestly: "There are many problems with the Superman team, the motherland is not suitable to be the captain at all, he is too uncontrollable, don't you have any ideas?" ”
"Let's go back and come to the headquarters when I have time."
Madeleine didn't continue the conversation and quickly hung up.
"Humph!"
Wang Tian threw his phone on the table.
Madeleine agrees that the Motherland is extremely infatuated with her and that she can control the Motherland.
This thinking turned out to be wrong.
As currently recognized as the strongest hero, the ambition of the motherland is not just to be the captain of the Superman team.
He thinks that he is the strongest hero, and there should be no ordinary people pointing fingers in front of him, and he wants to become the president of Walter and the decision-maker of everything.
It didn't mean that at all, not even the idea of adding a vice president to his head.
The motherland has a grudge against this and has been trying to make trouble for the company, as far as Wang Tian knows, this is not the first time that the company has leaked compound No. 5, but this time it has the biggest impact.
Walter Corporate Headquarters.
"What did King Nian say?"
"He thinks that the leaker is a native of the motherland or a locomotive, which coincides with our thoughts."
"His intuition is very keen, intuition, it happens to be one of the prerequisites for becoming a senior member of the company, the leak incident a year ago, although there is no direct evidence, the suspicious points all point to the motherland, Vice President Madeleine, do you say that this time it was still done by the motherland?"
"No, I'm more inclined to the locomotive, he's getting worse and worse and has to use compound 5 for a long time."
"You also know that compound No. 5 should not be used for a long time, otherwise hallucinations, hyperactivity, temporary amnesia, memory inability to concentrate and many other phenomena will occur."
"The last time, after the locomotive was injected with the compound, it ran like crazy on the streets, crossing New York at a speed of 1,600 kilometers per hour, killing three people and injuring four."
"When we found him, he was sleeping with a fifty-year-old woman, and there was no response to calling his name, and he was not far from losing control."
"What about the motherland?"
"I think it's okay with the motherland, he's still under my control."
"No, Madeleine, you still can't relax your surveillance of him, let alone be too confident in yourself, the motherland is a crocodile, you think you can tame it, in fact it's just your delusion."
"Once upon a time, like you, I thought that the motherland was our most successful product."
"It turns out that I was wrong, he would have betrayed the interests of the company for his own rights and even sold the interests of the company to the Middle East and China and Russia, and if it wasn't for the fact that I hadn't found a suitable substitute, I would have carried out the recycling program a long time ago."
"That was a year ago, and the people of the motherland have been doing well in recent times."
"Maybe, I already have a new captain candidate, I hope he doesn't make a mistake."
"Madeleine, you have to be clear that the Walter company has never been a superhero company, our essence is a pharmaceutical group, and our most valuable asset will always be only one, and that is the formulation of compound No. 5."
"The so-called superheroes are nothing more than the product of compound No. 5, and if we want to have as many products as we want, no one is irreplaceable."
"Yes, President Edgar."
Madeleine looked at Edgar as she walked out of her office, the expression on her face was very complicated.
The motherland will come to this point, and her support is inseparable.
A year ago, when the Chinese betrayed the company's interests and leaked the No. 5 compound, there were calls among the company's top management to reclaim the motherland.
In the end, it was she who persuaded President Edgar to abandon the recycling program on the grounds that she did not have a suitable captain, giving the motherland another chance.
On the one hand, she did this because she thought she could control the people of her country.
On the other hand, it is she who is reluctant to hold the power in her hands, and the motherland unconditionally supports any decision she makes, so that she can firmly control the superhero department.
Once the motherland is recovered and a new captain appears, she can't guarantee her position, and she will not be as secure as she is today.
She is just one of the company's twelve vice presidents.
At the beginning, she was only the deputy director of the hero department, and the motherland made her, and she also made the motherland, and the two sides complemented each other.
Nowadays, this community of interests is becoming more and more difficult to maintain, and the company does not need to betray the captain of the group's interests, and she cannot do without the support of the motherland, so she naturally stands on the opposite side of the company.
