Chapter 282 Nomination of Candidates
Hearing this, many people in the audience cheered. It seems that many people are looking forward to being beaten by a big beauty. What a sweet and exciting experience it would be......
However, after several people were "sweetened" by the current of 25 milliamps, no one dared to be presumptuous anymore. A small group of people also swallowed their saliva and withdrew the candidates who had already been confirmed after witnessing the "good experience" of those people.
Such an episode displeased a small number of people, but more often than not, it was schadenfreude. The entire nomination process has not been affected and is still proceeding in an orderly manner. In addition, the progress of nominations has been carried out very quickly. After all, there are three days to prepare, the canvassing of the canvass, the decision of the decision, so the vast majority of people quickly pressed the button.
The same goes for Grant.
For three days, he didn't stay at F&P's headquarters at all. Even if there were, with the low-key and withdrawn nature he showed, no one would have canvassed for votes from him. Aside from one Doctor Doom, whom he had "accidentally" heard, he didn't even know who had the idea of getting involved. However, instead of clicking the "abstain" button like others in a similar situation to him, he smiled in a certain direction and nominated a representative of a certain force.
"Skye-Inhuman-confirmed!"
At the same time, on the other side of the venue, Skye also presented the results.
It's like having a heart. Grant wrote her name, and she submitted "insulator" to it......
That's weird!
Skye knew that Grant was currently playing a low profile, so he didn't even think about nominating him. Nor did she think about nominating herself—though the rule that the forces could not nominate themselves had been lifted after the rules had been revised. The reason is simple, she knows that she doesn't have that ability. Also, if you can choose it, she thinks that the Inhumans shouldn't be in that position. She even felt that Inhumans should not be on the list of candidates. This race has already offended the two major forces of Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D., and has even attracted the attention of some people with ulterior motives. It's really not a good idea to be high-profile.
However, she did not choose to abstain.
More than one person came to visit during those three days. Among them are Doctor Octopus, who is already the biggest favorite for the status of a candidate, and there are also groups like AIM and Leviathan, which are not very strong, at least on the surface, but have a lot of ambition. It's just that none of this can impress Skye. In fact, Skye had already made a decision the night before those three days, after the previous meeting.
At that time, neither Team America nor Iron Man had set off with Professor X to Washington to persuade the Pentagon to release Magneto, who was being held in a plastic prison. Instead, he found Skye, who was having a "private meeting" with Grant - and he almost had an accident at that time. When Skye opens the door, he finds that it's not just Team America and Stark, but also Banner and Betty, as well as a guy dressed oddly.
Ant-Man.
Or should it be said that Ant-Man II generation. A special uniform allows him to become the size of an ant. What's more, he had learned from the previous generation Ant-Man how to use a special electromagnetic device to deal with ants, and he had learned to use each of the ants' strengths - building, attacking, smelling, being able to carry electricity, etc. - to accomplish his goals.
The four Avengers veterans brought this man to Skye in order to convince her to vote for Ant-Man in the nomination. Even Tony Stark, who has fought with Skye many times, came to the door in person, which shows how serious the Avengers are in this matter. And Skye has not officially left the Avengers after all, plus there are also Banner and Betty in it. So she agreed.
After several of the Avengers and that person were gone, Skye talked to Grant about it as he walked out of the hideout. They came to the conclusion that Ant-Man would soon be part of the Avengers......
Grant even wondered maliciously if Stark was eyeing Ant-Man's uniform and wanted to study it.
These are all off-topic, or back to the scene of nominating candidates. More than 1,000 people in the audience determine their choices, and then feed back to the center through that magical touch screen, organize and count, and finally Theron can "communicate with the machine" to show the results through the holographic projection that has appeared before. It's been thirty minutes. The main thing is that a small group of people can't make decisions lightly. However, until now, the whole process has entered the final stage.
"Wait a minute, Ms. Theron will show us the list of candidates for Commander through the afternoon via a holographic projection."
On the rostrum. Jean Grey once again controlled the atmosphere of the scene. At this point, she glanced back at Theron, and after receiving the latter's gesture, continued, "Please be patient, there is about a minute left." ”
That's fast enough. From the time everyone decides to decide, it will only take two or three minutes. Statistical results are coming so soon?
"While I have the time remaining, I will make another brief note. In order not to affect the final campaign in the afternoon. In order not to affect everyone's judgment, all the names of those who meet the conditions for becoming candidates will appear in the projection one after another, but the number of votes for their candidates in the nomination will not be announced. Moreover, the sequential presentation of candidates has nothing to do with the number of votes for nomination. ”
Jean Grey said this. In the sky above the round table on the rostrum, the holographic projection appeared again.
"Alright, now for Ms. Theron."
Still holding the tablet, Theron walked to the front desk of the rostrum under everyone's gaze. But she just casually held the tablet in her hand, and her eyes were fixed on the top of the round table.
Then, she blinked. The next moment, the first candidate appeared in the projection.
"Aldridge. Killian – AIM, a cutting-edge creative technology".
This is the title, below which is a photo of Killian, and at the bottom is a synopsis. This setup is the same as when I made the opening introduction.
As the leader of AIM and the strongest test subject of the Desperate Virus, it is not surprising that Killian was able to be nominated. He is also one of the favorites to run for election. But no matter how you say it, he's not as good as the next one.
"Dr. Doom - Latvia".
After forming an alliance with the Evil Six, Doctor Doom can use the influence of the other party to pull out a team that is several times the nomination standard of twenty. Coupled with the fact that he himself is in the de facto control of Latvia, and at the same time has the personal strength that every country has to fear, strictly speaking, the destructive power, he can give some people in need in terms of personal security and even politics. Protection. Therefore, it is not too easy for him to get the nomination. It is even said that he has the support of the vast majority of "supervillains" and has already pocketed that position before the official elections begin.
Next is "Ant-Man - Private Identity", and "Number One - Leviathan" and so on.
"The above are the eight candidates, and then the last one to meet the criteria."
On the podium, Theron blinked again at the top of the round table after his first utterance. The next moment......
"The Great Magician. Insulators - Private Identity".
The next moment, the audience who had been talking in various whispers fell silent all of a sudden. (To be continued......)
