In the main control center of the space station, Doom's handsome face was full of tenderness, and he put his hands behind his back, as if he had prepared some mysterious gift that would surprise people.
Doom quietly removed the partition, the transparent shields in all directions, suddenly reflected a soft light, Susan covered her mouth in surprise, looking at the blue planet under her feet, mountains and rivers, the vast continent, overlooking from here, the spectacular and majestic scene seemed very small, the whole world was thousands of times miniaturized, presented in the eyes, as if they were high gods, a shocking feeling came to the face.
Looking at Miss Storm with a surprised face, a smug smile appeared on the corner of Doom's mouth, the appearance of his old classmate Reed made him feel a hint of crisis, maybe he should take down this fascinating cute child as soon as possible and prevent any accidents from happening!
"Susan, every man dreams of meeting a woman he loves and giving everything for her, for me, this is not just a metaphor...... "The quiet space where no one disturbs, the deliberately created romantic atmosphere, Doom is determined to overcome the other person's heart defense and win the heart of the beauty."
"We've been dating for two years......"
Susan, who seemed to sense her current boyfriend's thoughts, interrupted Doom's heartfelt expression with a chuckle, "Victor, you have had a great time in the past two years, the company is thriving, the prospects are bright, and you have achieved extraordinary achievements. ”
For Miss Storm, who was born in a wealthy family, Vidocq-Doom is not the best choice in her mind, and the interaction between them can be seen more as an exchange of family interests, just like Doom pursued her at the beginning, and also had a fancy for her family background, and the reason why Susan agreed to be the other party's girlfriend was nothing more than the careful arrangement of the elders.
Susan, who seems to be well-behaved, has a rebellious factor of longing for freedom and adventure hidden in her heart, so she hates Reed's dullness and lack of romance, but she can't accept Doom's domineering arrogance that wants to control everything, especially the fanatical pursuit of money and status.
"It dawned on me that all the achievements in the world are meaningless if you don't have someone to share them with. I've never been afraid to make big decisions in my life, and now is the time for me to take the most important step in my life......"
Dum, who was intoxicated with his own world, did not notice that Susan's face gradually became unnatural, and his originally gentle smile seemed a little reluctant.
Dum let go of his palm, a small jewelry box lay quietly in his hand, opened it and held it up in front of his favorite girlfriend, a carefully selected diamond ring blooming with brilliance.
It is a huge and beautiful sapphire, like a dazzling star in the sky, and it is finely carved, with a master's level of craftsmanship, revealing a dreamlike brilliance.
Doom is very confident, he thinks that any woman will not be willing to look away when she sees it, and I believe that Susan will not be an exception.
"I have four words to say to you, and it will forever change the life between us......"
"The clouds have accelerated!" An abrupt voice interjected.
Holding the diamond ring, the affectionate Doom looked at the visitor angrily, and found that it was Sean from Ambrera Laboratory, and the other party was not a little person like Reed, who had no foundation, so he had to suppress the anger in his heart and ask about the situation.
"The clouds are accelerating, and we're going to collide head-on in a few minutes, Reed says the mission must be aborted, the raging stream of rays is in mortal danger." Sean propped his hands on the railing and smiled at Miss Storm, who cast a grateful gaze.
If it weren't for Sean's sudden appearance, which broke the seemingly romantic, but actually embarrassing atmosphere, Susan really didn't know how to refuse Doom, who was full of sincerity, on the one hand, she didn't want to hurt her current boyfriend, and on the other hand, she didn't want to accept the other party's show of love.
"Aren't there seven hours left?" Doom asked annoyedly.
Sean shrugged his shoulders and signaled that he didn't know, a few minutes ago, Reed found out that he had miscalculated, there were less than ten minutes left before the cosmic energy storm hit, thinking of Ben, who was still outside the space station, he immediately wanted Doom to stop this mission.
"Let Reid calm down, we can't give up all because of a small situation, then the previous investment is equivalent to a complete waste!" Doom said coldly.
He can't let a small mistake ruin everything, if this experiment fails, then all the funds and investment will be wasted, and at that time Doom will have to bear the heavy consequences alone, and may even lose the wealth and status he has now.
How much effort did he put in to come to the New World from a small country in Eastern Europe with frequent wars and become a high-class person in the eyes of people, is it because of a miscalculation that he has to return to the difficult days of having nothing?
It's impossible!
Ignoring Susan's pleading gaze next to him, Doom said indifferently, "Close the shield." ”
"You're murdering, Victor." Sean's eyes flickered, and he rejected the offer. "We can't do that."
Susan also nodded in agreement, if the shield blocking the energy storm was closed at this time, then Ben, who was still outside, would have no chance of surviving.
"To achieve a great cause, someone always needs to sacrifice."
Doom doesn't care about any children, he is an egoist himself, and he is not pure love for Susan, mixed with a lot of interests, if this beautiful and lively lovely son is not from the famous Storm family, maybe he will not be so bothered to pursue it.
Seeing Susan with a disappointed expression, turning her head and running out of the main control center, and Sean also walked out of the only safe cabin, Doom couldn't help but look indifferent, he walked to the console with a blank face, reached out and clicked a few virtual buttons on the display, and the sturdy and reliable protective cover slowly closed.
Outside, there is his once beloved girlfriend, a college classmate who is a rival and rival, and a genius who originally cooperated......
And inside the layers of falling shields, only Victor Doom was alone.
"Johnny!" Reed ran over with an anxious face and hurriedly shouted, "Quickly open the outer hatch of the air pressure isolation chamber and take Ben back!" ”
In the vast and infinite dark space, a huge orange-red cloud struck at an alarming speed, like a raging and violent majestic torrent, emitting extremely terrifying energy fluctuations.
Ben is like a whale in the deep sea, ignoring the plant seedlings that have not yet been placed, jumping forward, paddling desperately in the cosmic vacuum environment, rushing to the outer hatch that has been opened, he seems to be racing against death, and the only chance to survive is the open hatch.
