Chapter Seventy-Three: Butcher's Revenge
In the office of the president of the Walt Group, Edgar was standing uneasily by the window, looking down, and although the whole city was filled with advertisements and propaganda for the celebration a few days later, Edgar could not be reassured.
For no other reason, the relationship between the motherland and the Walter Group can be said to have dropped to a freezing point.
For some reason, the Motherland suddenly found out about Béjart and Ryan, raided the location where the Walter Company was hiding them, and slaughtered all the guards there.
Now, Edgar only feels that the development of everything is gradually out of control, and on the side of the motherland, due to the lack of a balance on the existence of the motherland, and the fear that this old giant baby will go crazy and lose his mind, the Walter company can only choose a partial compromise.
Acknowledging the faults of the Walter Group to the people of the motherland and no longer restricting the personal freedom of Béjart and Ryan, and after the hijacking incident subsided, the people of the motherland were re-elevated to the altar.
The motherland, on the other hand, did not respond much.
Edgar didn't know how much that would remedy, but he had no choice.
Because even the motherland's concern in the Walter Group, Madeleine, was burned through her head because of her deception of the motherland.
What's even worse is that these dirty things are all shady, and Walter can only choose to hide all this from the public, which also makes the motherland unscrupulous.
As for using supermen to counterbalance the Motherland? Now Edgar's biggest headache is Superman, his fame now far overshadows the Walter Group, and there is also a faint tendency to break away from the control of the Walter Group, and he begins to become more and more self-serving. But that's what the brain-dead fans do, and Edgar believes that no matter what Superman says, I'm afraid those fanatical fans will take it as a guide.
Superman even recently added the title of "God of the World" to the crowd.
It's ridiculous! What god on earth? But he's just a trick guy. After all, Edgarth thought about it, and still felt that Superman was the most suspicious, once to leak the black box recording of the plane, and once to reveal the truth to the motherland, after all, these two incidents, it was this guy who benefited the most.
Although he doesn't know how Superman did it, and there is no evidence, Edgar has already decided in his heart that these things are inseparable from Superman.
But what's even more helpless is that Walter Company still needs the golden sign of Superman for the time being, otherwise the Super Seven may have to be disbanded on the spot, and Walter Company's credibility in the hearts of the masses will be further improved.
So Edgar can only get things done now, sending people to investigate the truth while also finding new superpowers who are easy to control and can compete with Superman.
But how easy is that?
Sighing deeply, Edgar felt so powerless for the first time.
——
"It's amazing! These equipment! ”
In Leo's experimental base, several members of the black-robed pickets were trying on the new equipment that Leo had prepared for them.
That's right, it's a batch of nano armor created by Leo imitating Tony's armor!
However, unlike Tony's armor, Leo's nano armor focuses more on strengthening the human body itself, such as greater strength and speed, rather than focusing on energy output and fire coverage.
And it is also equipped with an upgraded version of the ability suppressor, with these, the combat effectiveness of the black-robed pickets can be said to have made a qualitative leap, and they can also do more things for Leo.
"By the way, what is this guy's superpower? Could it be that while enhancing his physical fitness, his intelligence has also reached an inhuman level? ”
Huey whispered to Butcher next to him.
"Ahem, I can hear you."
Leo deliberately made a sound. During this period of time, the cooperation between the black-robed pickets and himself was quite harmonious, and on this basis, Leo gave them stronger equipment, and now except for some superpowers at the top of the combat power, the rest of them are just weak chickens who can be killed at will.
Milk is even more excited, and it has always been his dream to be able to kill those superpowers with his own hands.
Anyway, for Leo, they were just toys, and he didn't worry about what a few people could come up with.
"What exactly do you want?"
Butcher walked over to Leo and finally voiced his inner doubts.
"For world peace."
Leo smiled faintly, then patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't think too much, guys, it's time to start acting according to plan!"
——
On the other side, in the courtyard where Béjart and Ryan lived, the laughter of men and children kept coming.
It's a native of the motherland, and I saw him holding Ryan on his body and flying around in the air, with a happy smile on his face.
The moment he saw Ryan, the motherland had almost confirmed that he was their son, and the feeling of blood connection was very strange and enjoyed by the motherland.
Through Bejart, the Motherland learns all the truth, but out of vigilance against Superman, he still finds Dr. Vogelbaum, hoping that everything will be confirmed.
In the face of the ironclad facts, the Doctor finally stopped hiding and told the Motherland everything he wanted to know, which made the Motherland furious: Madeleine, the woman he loved so much, had been deceiving herself all along, using herself as a tool of the Walter Group.
Suppressing her anger, the Motherland gave Madeleine one last chance, but Madeleine disappointed him, and after the last kiss, Madeleine was killed by the Motherland on her couch.
At this point, the motherland, who was completely disappointed in the Walter Group, returned to Lane's side and enjoyed the hard-won family fun.
But his heart is also very shaken at the moment, because the conditions offered by the Walter Group are not unrich, and the motherland people who still hope to become the focus of the public are a little tempted.
After learning that Superman was investigating the Vought Group, he knew that Superman would definitely find out that someone was using Compound Five to create a super terrorist, so in order not to be caught again, he had already cut off the end of his hand in this matter, and forged all the evidence to dump it on the head of the Vought Company.
However, since the hijacking case did not cause actual casualties, except for the co-pilot who was mistakenly killed by the heat ray, of course, that could be pushed to the robbers, so the motherland may not have a chance to turn over.
Just when the people of the motherland were hesitating, an uninvited guest had already arrived.
It was Butcher, who was wearing a set of black mechs full of technology, and he didn't hide anything, and fell directly from the sky.
"Bang!"
Not yet comfortable with the operation, Butcher almost fell.
This scared Ryan and Béjart.
The Motherland also looked at the visitor in disbelief, and through perspective he recognized Butcher as the one who had been staring at him at the scene during the Locomotive and Blaster races.
With a thought, the mecha on Butcher's body retracted, turning into a black ring on his arm.
Seeing Butcher, Béjart and Ryan immediately reacted.
It turned out that just before the countrymen came here, Butcher, who knew everything through Leo, often avoided the guards to visit Béjart and Ryan.
But after the Motherland appeared, Butcher never came here again, which made Béjart think that something had happened to Butcher.
However, Béjart and Ryan knew Butcher, but the motherland did not know that Butcher was Bégart's husband, and when they were still wondering, they saw Butcher coming over.
"By introduction, I'm Béjar's husband, Butcher."
The dusty memories were opened, and the motherland suddenly recalled the scene when Bejat enthusiastically introduced Butcher to the motherland that night eight years ago.
The Motherland immediately realized that the comer was not good, but he didn't take Butcher seriously, even though Butcher had that weird mecha.
"I'm here to warn you for Superman, to put away your undeserved thoughts, and to kick your ass hard for the sake of Béja and Lao Tzu's eight years of pain!"
By the end, Butcher had an angry expression.
"Just you?"
The motherland looked at Butcher with disdain, and slowly put Ryan down, ready to give this guy a lesson that he will never forget!
