foreigner's journey

Chapter 373 Rufus's Ambition
The surrounding lights all dimmed at some point, deliberately creating a dark area.

The helicopter with the entire fuselage painted in matte pure black landed on the huge platform on the roof, which was originally a super-large apron for parking the helicopter.Heather and the others stood in the center of the apron, watching the helicopter land steadily.

The cabin opened, and Rufas Shinra, who was wearing a white coat, walked down first, followed by two female Tux agents in Tux suits and uniforms. All three of them, without exception, carried any firearms. Obviously It's to show your attitude.

Heather had already put on a coat, and was standing in the middle of the tarmac with her arms folded, showing impatience: "You are really careful... Did you deliberately leave the Shinra headquarters building before to avoid suspicion?"

"Although I will be the number one heir after my father's death, but now is a critical moment, after all, we must avoid some gossip."

Rufas Shinra already knew everything that happened in the Shinra headquarters building when he came, and he can only say that he is very glad that he chose the right partner.He snapped his fingers behind him, and a female Tax agent with blond shoulder-length short hair picked up a beautiful black leather suitcase, stepped forward and handed it to Heather.

"What, your own life money?" Heather didn't answer, but asked jokingly.

Rufas smiled: "Please don't say such terrible things casually, this is my unilateral thank you."

Barrett got a hint from Heather, stepped forward to take the box, and as soon as he opened it, he found that the box was shining with all kinds of lights, and there were all kinds of magic crystals neatly stacked inside, including rare varieties such as purple attribute stones and red summoning stones .There is also a small book specially placed in the box, which lists the names and effects of the magic spar in detail according to the number.

"Most of them are natural varieties, not man-made cheap ones." Jesse has done a lot of research on this aspect, and he immediately saw that the quality of these magic crystals is surprisingly good.

"Unfortunately, Shinra Company's only Bahamut Summoning Stone has disappeared along with Sephiroth."

Rufas really wanted to find some good things for Heather, so he should try his best to win over such a high-quality and powerful ally.However, the Bahamut Summoning Stones are too rare. With the war and the development of the times, they are lost in every corner of the world or directly annihilated and returned to the stream of life.

Heather didn't like this: "You are indeed very courageous, and you dare to appear in front of me like this. If you kill you, Shinra Company will immediately fall apart, right?"

Rufas is the most suitable successor of the Shinra Corporation. If he dies here, the super kingdom that dominates the world will immediately fall apart, forming a new era of separatist rule.

"It is because I am sure that you don't want to kill me that I appear here."

The smile on Rufas’s face remained undiminished: “Once the Shinra Corporation collapses, the residents of the slums will be the first to suffer. Then the whole world will immediately break out of war due to lack of resources and the loss of suppressors. Only if I live and inherit the position of president can I Maintain the current situation as much as possible, and let Shinra change the direction of progress with my will."

"The way forward?" Barrett asked suspiciously.

"Father wants to use money and force to control the whole world. On the surface, it does work. The people believe that Shinra will save them. If you work for Shinra, you will get paid. If you are attacked by terrorists, Shinra troops will come. Save them. Human life is inseparable from Mako, and the Shinra Corporation that dominates Mako is the god of mankind. But my father and I have completely different ideas."

Rufas spread his hands and talked eloquently:

"I will lead Shinra Company to change its strategy of action and take the lead in abandoning the use of Mako energy. I have been to various parts of the world over the years and have witnessed countless barren lands and human tragedies caused by excessive extraction of Mako. Mako is not necessary, I will prove this to the world. Of course, it is definitely unrealistic to completely abandon Mako all at once. This process needs to be done gradually, but Shinra will develop a more suitable energy source during this period and become a leader in the energy industry again. At that time, under my leadership, Shinra will once again become the hero of all mankind."

"Wow... I've seen President Shinra's speech on TV. This young master is just as talkative as his father. He really deserves to be a father and son." Jesse whispered into Tifa's ear, teasing Tifa covered her mouth and laughed happily.

"I'm not interested in knowing your ambitions." Heather interrupted Rufas' passionate inauguration speech impatiently: "If you want to survive, then you have to show your unique value."

In the original work, Rufas was not a good bird. Although he finally corrected the evil and returned to the good, but in the main story, there was no lack of obstacles for the protagonist and his party.If the other party's answer does not satisfy Heather, then Heather will really kill here.Anyway, the deal has already been completed, so it doesn't count that Heather broke the agreement.

Rufas raised his hand to stop the restlessness of the two female Turks agents, and the smile on his face was as perfect as when he first met Heather:
"Shinra Corporation is the most powerful in the world in terms of money and intelligence capabilities. Although I don't know why Sephiroth clashed with you and even almost demolished half of the Shinra headquarters building, I think the relationship between you and Sephiroth The battle is not over yet, right? I can fully mobilize the resources of Shinra Corporation to help you search for Sephiroth around the world. It is difficult for you to go all over the world to find someone who deliberately hides, especially if the other party is The former strongest fighter in the world who is very good at concealing his identity."

As he said that, the female Tax agent behind him brought another box, which contained a beautifully styled flip phone: "This is a PHS portable mobile phone, the latest mobile phone developed by Shinra. We will pass this phone Keep in touch with you, once there is news about Sephiroth, I will inform you in time."

Heather raised her eyebrows. It's not a smart phone. It seems to be different from the reset version of FF7.

Seeing that Heather didn't refuse, Rufas was determined, looked at the others with a smile on his face, and bowed slightly: "Everyone, although the Shinra Company under my father's rule has had all kinds of unhappiness with you, But I guarantee that the new Shinra Company will not let you down."

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling face, and Heather, the leader of the team, didn't say anything to refute, so everyone slowed down.Even Barrett, who always hated Shinra, didn't say anything more.

"President..." The female agent stepped forward to signal Rufas to pay attention to the time.

Rufas smiled slightly, and looked at Heather: "We are running out of time, and the various executives in Shinra will definitely come to investigate father's situation. At that time, I will concentrate on suppressing them and controlling the power. I might offend you a little bit.”

"You mean...?" Claude frowned.

"I will order to send the Shinra army to pursue Sephiroth and everyone. Of course, the real main force is to pursue Sephiroth, and the number of Shinra troops responsible for chasing you will not be many, and most of them are low-power and low-end weapons. Low-ranking soldiers. As you know, new officials have to put on a show when they take office, after all, you are also the murderers who killed the president and destroyed the Shinra headquarters building."

Heather said sarcastically: "I'm afraid that many diehards loyal to your father will be stuffed into the troops chasing us? You are really good at using us to eradicate dissidents, young master."

"It's nothing more than mutual help between allies, isn't it difficult for you?"

Rufas smiled sincerely:
"In about 30 minutes, the chasing forces will surround the Shinra headquarters building. During this period, you can stop for a while when you pass the exhibition hall on the first floor. I have prepared a small gift for you. I believe you will like it."
