Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Storm Strikes
PS: I wish you all a happy Zongzi Festival!
The next day, an unprecedented 'storm' swept through New York, even more so than the storm caused by Leo and Tony's identity announcement!
"The Black Emperor, a pseudo-hero, has been conducting secret research on mutants, and those crazy mutants last night were his masterpieces, because he couldn't control it, which caused the riots, and the base is his home, Io Manor!"
The news has been reported, and there was an uproar, and almost everyone's first feeling was not to believe it, feeling that it was nonsense.
Because the base is in Io Manor, Io Manor was almost in ruins last night, and the news continues to impact the belief of all those who hold that this is fake news.
Then a tragic picture of the deputy Io Manor was released, looking at this solid evidence, although most people still believe in the Black Emperor, but there has been a faint voice, that is: This news is true.
In this regard, some people also show that the Black Emperor was framed, and this was the Black Emperor who only attracted the framing and revenge after revealing his true identity, otherwise, if it was true, why didn't such a thing happen earlier, but it only happened after the Black Emperor announced his identity?
In the end, the media that reported the news came up with the most crucial evidence, a video, the content of the video is no different from the content that said at the beginning that the Black Emperor was conducting mutant experiments, the key is the people inside.
Emma's sister! This is the default identity of the IO Group! And the relationship between Emma and Leo is also obvious to all, so this is quite strong evidence!
And at the end of the video, there is also a sad self-description of Kara: "If you don't see me in the future, it means that I am dead, don't be sad about this, as long as you can reveal the true face of this pseudo-hero, I will die without regrets!" ”
After seeing this, everyone couldn't help but admire this woman! At the same time, the doubts that arose as a result deeply shook most people.
At this moment, some people began to make noises for Emma's 'sister' Kara to come out and prove it.
Hearing this method, all the people were excited, yes, as long as they saw the person in this video, then whether it was real or planted, there would be a result in this matter.
However, until three days later, neither Leo nor the Io Group made a sound, and this behavior shook the faith of many people who believed that the Black Emperor was framed, and even Kara, who never appeared, was also believed by many to have been poisoned by the Black Emperor.
Finally, two days later, a storm broke in about the Black Emperor being a sinner and wanting to arrest him.
The Black Emperor did not deny it, and now it has become like a ruin, and a large number of people have gathered at the gate of the Io Manor and the headquarters of the Io Group, protesting against the government's inaction, and the crowd is demanding the arrest of the murderer who deceived everyone! At the same time, the masses are once again in fear of mutants, and they are suggesting that the government arrest those dangerous mutants! ”
Looking at the report on TV, Leo smiled indifferently, of course the government did nothing, the Io Group, Stark Industries, S.H.I.E.L.D., plus the military who knew the truth about Stryker's Clone Project, plus the councilors in the government who belonged to the Io Group and the Stark Group, this terrifying force directly suppressed the relevant government personnel who wanted to meddle in this matter, so they allowed the storm of public opinion to get bigger and bigger.
"Use public opinion, through what 'I' did, to achieve the goal of restricting mutants, Stryker, your method is really pediatric!" Leo smiled disdainfully.
Leo didn't care about this at all, after all, this storm of public opinion could blow towards him, so why wouldn't it be used by him?
And what moved Leo was that in this frenzied storm, those people still believed that he was framed, and those people could still stand firmly on his side in the face of most people denouncing the Black Emperor, which made Leo's heart very warm.
Gwen looked at the news report and shouted angrily: "The Black Emperor must have been framed!" Tomorrow's parade, I'm going to participate! ”
Hearing Gwen's words, Peter, who was standing with Gwen, was a little helpless, although the Black Emperor's style of acting was somewhat in conflict with his philosophy, but what the Black Emperor did for this city was indelible, so in the face of Gwen's eyes glaring at him, he could only say that he would also stand firmly on the side of the Black Emperor.
In the face of the storm that swept towards the Black Emperor, those who had received the help of the Black Emperor planned to use the parade that they could only do now as a means of supporting the Black Emperor, and tomorrow would be the time they had agreed.
The next day, at dawn, a thousand-meter-long procession of more than 100,000 people passed through the streets of Manhattan and came to Times Square.
The scene of those people who supported the Black Emperor holding high pieces of slogans supporting the Black Emperor and shouting to find out the truth and give the Black Emperor justice was really shocking.
In ten years, he didn't remember how many people Leo had saved, but when Leo saw this scene through the screen, his heart was unusually warm, and at the same time, a heavy responsibility rose in his heart.
"Leo, I envy you!" Tony's house, Tony stood beside Leo, looking at the crowd of people who supported Leo, and his face was also shocked.
Moved, looking at the army that arrived because there were too many people and feared a riot, Leo said lightly: "Although this storm will brew for a few more days and achieve better results, it can barely be done today!" ”。
"That's fine, it's not good if someone gets hurt because of it!" Obviously, Tony and Leo thought together, and then after looking at Leo, he blinked, and said, "Then let's start!" ”。
After speaking, Leo disappeared, and the next moment, a dazzling lightning light lit up in the sky of Times Square.
"Crackling!" Silver lightning bolts swam around Leo like roaring electric dragons, attracting everyone's attention.
"Black Emperor! The Black Emperor is here! Seeing Leo's figure, the people supporting Leo in the square below let out a roar of excitement.
"Black Emperor! We believe you have been wronged! Gwen roared loudly with a red face, leaving behind the image of a lady in the past, and when Peter saw this, he covered his eyes speechlessly and muttered in a low voice, "This is not Gwen!" ”。
"Thank you!" Leo's deep voice fell from the sky, reaching everyone's ears with heavy force.
Hearing Leo's thanks, everyone fell silent, and even the soldiers who came to obey the order couldn't help but look at this man floating in mid-air, this man who was all in the spotlight at this moment!
