Chapter 1,152 Self-directed and self-acted(1/2)
"why did you leave?"
An Teng was confused about Andrew's sudden departure. At this moment, his cell phone rang with a text message notification. When he opened it, his eyes widened - there was an extra 30 million US dollars in his bank account.
Itan instantly understood what Andrew meant and was overjoyed. He immediately opened the special website. Today, An Teng will be the top brother on the list!
…
Over the decades, the Vought Group has made a lot of money relying on superheroes. Therefore, after the building collapsed, the Vought Group rented a new building next to it as quickly as possible, and then transferred people from major branches.
Come to the headquarters and start operations again.
Madeleine sat in Edgar's office, waiting for his return. Although she was abandoned by Edgar a few days ago, she did not leave the Walter Group because of this. She still stayed here and never even mentioned it again.
.
Revenge doesn't exist, at least, it doesn't exist until Madeleine finds the perfect opportunity.
After a while, Edgar walked into the office accompanied by his ninja bodyguards. When he sat down, Madeleine asked: "Mr. Edgar, how is the president's accountability going?"
"We've finally managed it."
Edgar took a sip of coffee and said a little tiredly: "The United States needs us now, and the president didn't dare to go too far. He only asked us to hand over a list. All the people with super powers who appeared last time must be registered in Eucalyptus.
"
"That's not bad."
Madeleine said that being valuable is the most important thing. As long as it is valuable, even if problems arise, the people above will not go too far.
Without the Vought Group, who would deal with the disaster and that so-called organization?
Edgar put down the cup and asked: "Madeline, what's the matter with you coming to see me?"
"I am busy."
Madeleine nodded and said: "This time we have suffered too much loss, people's hearts are wandering, and other companies have been trying to pry our corners. For example, the motherland has received at least fifty invitations from other companies.
Other members of the Super Seven have also received many invitations, and they are even willing to pay compensation for these superheroes."
"This is because they think our Vought Group is going to collapse and they are here to eat our corpses."
Edgar snorted coldly and said: "Have the motherland and the soldier boy wavered?"
These two are the basics. As long as they are fine, everything will be fine.
"Soldier boy is very easy to talk to. He didn't even negotiate terms. I feel like he really looked away."
Madeleine shook her head: "The motherland is in trouble. His contract is about to expire, and he asked us to get rid of the soldier boy and the locomotive."
Edgar snorted and asked, "You can comfort him, right?"
"Of course you can. People of the motherland cannot live without the admiration of others."
Madeleine said: "Mr. Edgar, we should do something to stabilize our position, and at the same time, let everyone know that the Walter Group has not fallen and is as strong as before.
In addition, we also want to let the people of the motherland know that only we, the Vought Group, can make him the most famous superhero. When the time comes, let alone renewing his contract, he will not leave even if we drive him away."
"We should indeed do something to restore the people's confidence in us."
Edgar agreed with Madeleine and said: "The question is, what to do? I have been looking for those with superpowers these past few days, but I can't find anything.
As for disasters, no one knows when they will happen again, and superheroes may not be able to cope with them."
"If we have extra superpowers, maybe we can direct and perform it ourselves."
Madeleine suggested. It was obvious that she had the same idea as the people of her motherland and wanted to build her reputation on her own.
This is not surprising, Vought is very good at counterfeiting. For example, the characters of major superheroes are basically fake.
"That's not impossible."
Edgar hesitated and said: "Let me think about this first, Madeleine, you and I will deal with the internal affairs of the company first. The headquarters has been destroyed. Now the whole company is in chaos, and there are a lot of things to do.
In addition, let all superheroes spend more time fighting crime and saving citizens, which will help the stock price."
"Understood, Mr. Edgar."
Seeing that Edgar accepted her proposal, Madeleine was very happy and joined Edgar in busy work. As for overtime, how could she not work overtime in this situation?
Even Andrew is working overtime, teaching Peggy magic. Peggy's magic talent is very good, and with the bonus of the Demon King's power, in a short period of time, she can release the sound blade and tear the row of dummies in front of her into pieces.
.
The so-called sound blade uses sound to vibrate the air to form a sharp blade to attack the target. The strength and size of the sound blade will be affected by the music.
"Andrew, I succeeded."
Peggy held Andrew's arm and said excitedly. Andrew nodded and said: "Very good, but don't be complacent. Next, you still have a lot to learn.
In addition, Sound Blade is just basic magic for you to use for self-defense. What you really need to practice is biological magic."
"Creature magic?"
Peggy was a little shocked, and Andrew said: "In game terms, it is to use music to enhance states, such as rage, madness, dementia, control, etc.
Of course, this is technological magic, and each magic has a very scientific principle. For example, violent magic uses magic to make the opponent's body secrete adrenaline hormones.
There is also control, which is to make the other party's brain secrete dopamine, so next, you have to study biological knowledge seriously and understand everything about the human body, especially various hormones, and music magic is actually hormone magic."
"Magic is supposed to be a very high-level thing, but when you analyze it, it doesn't feel right at all."
Peggy complained, and Andrew took out a speaker and said with a smile: "If I told you that this is your future magic prop, would you feel even more uncomfortable?"
"I will want to die."
Peggy rolled her eyes, at least get a microphone. What magician fights with a trumpet? Not a street vendor?
"The worst thing is to make the speaker look better."
Andrew smiled and said that Peggy needs to be trained well. There may be a large-scale war plane in the future, such as the "Lord of the Rings" plane.
There is one thing about music magic that cannot be compared with other magics, that is, it has an extremely wide range, which is perfect for the battlefield.
"From now on, physics classes will continue every day, and there will be more biology classes at the same time."
Andrew said: "You have to take a test every month. Don't be lazy."
Peggy looked at Andrew helplessly. She obviously learned the magic she wanted to learn, and she was obviously with the man she wanted to be with. Why was the result so tragic?
University studies are already very heavy, and you probably won’t even have time to sleep in the future, right?
Looking at Peggy's sad face, Andrew laughed and didn't tell her that she could study in her dreams. This little girl was still very fun.
…
Time flies, and soon, time comes to more than a month later. In this more than a month, the hot topic in the United States has gradually returned to normal, changing from a disaster to a presidential election.
Although disasters occur frequently, the disasters in the black-robed universe are not like those in the DC universe, which are world-destroying at first sight. Therefore, the position of president is still very attractive. The two parties compete fiercely and use various conventional methods.
Come out together, such as digging up dirt on each other, throwing dirty water, etc.
In order to increase his support rate, coupled with various off-site factors, the president finally chose Nathan to be his vice president and run together.
With Nathan here, the president's approval rating has been increasing, which makes the president very satisfied that he did not choose the wrong person.
In addition to the general election, there is another hot topic, and that is the Vought Group. During this period, some superheroes in the Vought Group were pried away by other companies, and the stock price has not improved. Many people are discussing whether the Vought Group is not good.
Already?
The people were not panicking. Anyway, with Director Tianjian here, nothing serious could happen. They were just gossiping.
Because of the problems with the Walter Group, the popularity of the people in the motherland has dropped a lot. There is no way, they are operating like celebrities. As soon as the exposure is reduced, the popularity will drop immediately.
Moreover, in these disasters, the performance of the motherland, although not bad, is definitely not good, and is far from what the people expected. It is normal for the popularity to decline.
The people of the motherland were very anxious about this, so during this period, he often visited the secret base of the death organization.
"Hunter, when will the death organization attack?"
The people of the motherland couldn't wait to ask: "Isn't there already a finished product? The divine power of death can ensure that 70% of the experimental subjects survive and awaken their superpowers."
"It is true that we have trained many people with the power of death."
The hunter nodded first and then said: "However, some time ago, Death gave me some potions. These potions can be integrated into the bodies of those with death powers to make them more powerful.
Therefore, the experiment is still going on. People of the motherland, please be patient. Even if you defeat an opponent who is too weak, it will be meaningless, right?"
The so-called potion was actually provided by the snake god Seth. She was very interested in the death plan, so she provided some help so that she could cultivate stronger experimental products.
"I can't wait that long. My current popularity has dropped too much."
The people of the motherland shouted dissatisfied: "Even my peripheral sales have dropped by half. This is really terrifying."
The hunter said: "But you are still the most famous superhero, uh, except Director Skyward Sword."
"Damn Director Tianjian, I will kill him sooner or later."
The man from the motherland looked at the hunter and said: "My motherland, from the time we were born, we should only be the first, not the second. Hunter, start the attack plan as soon as possible. I want to increase my reputation."
"Okay, I'll speed them up."
The hunter said helplessly, and the native nodded with satisfaction. Just as he was about to say something, his cell phone suddenly rang. It was Madeleine calling, saying that Edgar had something important to discuss with him.
Although the people of the motherland were unhappy, they still flew back to the New Water Building to see what Edgar wanted to say.
To be continued...
