Chapter 952 Regent Position (Second Change)

Doing something absurd does help to relax, although the result is that Salomon sleeps on the sofa for a week and washes his face fifty times a day before Bayonetta will kiss him, but Salomon is still very happy. Happily, the witch finally forgave this idiot who only showed a smirk after doing stupid things.

After that, when he worked, he became the efficient and pragmatic King of the Immortal City again, that is, the responsible image in Victor von Doom's mouth.For those low-level office workers in the internal affairs department and intelligence department, the king of the immortal city is such a person. In the eyes of some people who participated in the battle of Finbowent, this image also has some fantasy elements, such as golden glitter A description like a big guy.

However, for senior executives like Stephanie and her little secretary Diana Lister, especially female employees, they often get some beautiful little gifts from Salomon.Stephanie thought it should be a by-product of Salomon's practice of making magic items, that is, magic accessories that had not yet been enchanted.Simply put, it is a waste product, probably because a certain magic array line is arranged incorrectly so that it cannot be enchanted.After all, there is no special software and printing tools for drawing magic PCB, and making these things is a manual hobby, just like cooking, Salomon didn't take it too seriously.

Anyway, he could afford those cheap materials, only precious metals such as gold and silver required a little expense.

As Salomon's Praetorian Guard, Constantine knew exactly what happened that day, but he didn't interfere.Because his job is to serve the monarch, no matter what Salomon does, he will agree. This is the course of action written into the DNA.It's just that he can't understand the emotions of the monarch, because genetic alchemy has completely wiped out most of the emotional needs of the Imperial Guard. Even though he still has an independent personality, he only has the desire to serve the monarch and complete the tasks issued by the monarch. That gave him a sense of mission.In Salomon's words, completing the mission will make the Praetorian Guards feel like there are cartoon birds hovering happily above their heads, and then making a nest on the helmet.

Constantine heaved a long sigh after hearing the parable of the monarch, he had no idea what it meant.

The reason why genetic alchemy is used is to completely prevent the Praetorians from being corrupted by the outer dimension.

When the genetic alchemy is complete, no magic will work on the Praetorians' spirits.For extradimensional energy and energy creatures, the soul of the Praetorian is as indestructible as a piece of refined vibranium. The soul and spirit of the Praetorian are designed to be solid and durable tools that will never tire, corrupting the Praetorian It is as difficult as cleaning the atoms on this large piece of vibrating gold with water flowing from the tap.To achieve such an effect, one must first endure the mental and physical torture brought about by genetic alchemy, and there is no one in a million who can survive it.

Constantine personally supervised the pre-operations on those children on the list. Even the preparations before the start of genetic alchemy, two boys failed to carry it through.The Extremis virus can make genes ready to be adjusted at any time, but this process is quite painful, and many adults died in unbearable pain, let alone two children.

Although Constantine can't remember what he was like before he underwent genetic modification, Constantine believes that he should be the first experimental subject to survive, because the monarch said that his ability to complete the transformation was "a thing destined to happen." .He didn't know why the monarch was so sure that he would survive. When he asked, Salomon chose not to talk.

This was rare, as Salomon rarely kept secrets from Constantine.However, Constantine was not too persistent, and it was not his mission to explore these secrets.

His mission today is to meet Wanda Maximoff in Los Angeles and ask about the progress of the Ghost Rider mission.The Scarlet Witch has delayed this task for too long, even his monarch can't let Wanda delay it any longer - the Immortal City is not a spontaneous organization like the Avengers, and all tasks cannot be changed according to personal ideas. Even if Wanda Maximoff is the monarch's apprentice, he cannot violate the rules.If Wanda fails to complete the task or wants to change the task goal for some reason, Constantine will continue the task, because he is the unshakable will of the monarch.

He does, however, carry some non-lethal weapons on board his assault dropship and anti-gravity jet bike.

For example, the stun net gun can release a high-voltage current that can stun an adult elephant in an instant; there is also a gravity weapon developed through the gravitational technology of the dark elves, which can push the target away and keep it at a certain distance from the user. the distance.These things are experimental models, because the immortal city only needs lethal weapons in most cases, and the occasions that require non-lethal weapons are as rare as some endangered animals.

However, not everyone is as calm as Constantine, and Stephanie almost passed out from being too emotional when she knew that the power structure of the Immortal City had changed.She didn't know why Salomon wanted Victor von Doom as regent, when he couldn't wield the power of the Immortal City, let that - in her words, "come out of nowhere guy"—running the system.She originally thought that the candidate would be herself, because the Malik family had greatly helped the development of the Immortal City, and she was also Salomon's most trusted assistant.This kind of thing is not only a challenge to her power, but also shakes the status of the Malik family.

When she went straight to Salomon's desk to ask for an explanation, Salomon stopped what he was doing and invited her to sit on the sofa.He also poured her a glass of red wine and motioned for her to take a sip first, then sat on the opposite sofa with gentle movements, "You haven't been able to get rid of the influence of the Malik family. To be precise, it's your father Jidi En Malik's influence."

"What does this mean?" Stephanie frowned, her tone full of dissatisfaction. "The Malik family has offered Hydra, isn't that trustworthy?"

"So are you determined to sacrifice the Malik family for the Immortal City?" Salomon took Stephanie's hand and asked softly, raising his eyebrows.

Stephanie seemed to be choking on air.

Instead of continuing to press, Salomon changed his seat and sat beside her. "I know it's difficult, so you hesitate, I understand you. I understand that it's quite mean to make such a request, but you have to understand that there is no eternal alliance in this world. Now that the Malik family is getting stronger, if someday The Rick family has embarked on the opposite path to the Immortal City because their interests could not be reached. You must make a decision to avoid irreversible losses. If necessary, you must issue an order to kill your relatives, because you are the head of the internal affairs department Not feudal vassals. While it's not guaranteed to happen, there's no telling what will happen in the future. I know you, Stephanie, you love your family, but the job of a regency requires cold blood on the part of the incumbent Ruthless. If you want the job, it means horrific mental torture. I don't want your torture, Stephanie."

"So is Victor von Doom cold-blooded enough?"

"He is a guy who does whatever it takes to achieve his goals. In order to find a way to save his mother, he even condemned Kama Taj. He endured hunting and killing again and again until the Supreme Sorcerer shot him. He survived, and that is the problem. His Holiness I didn't kill him because I valued one of his qualities." He said, "I need Victor von Doom, okay?"

"Okay." Salomon hugged Stephanie's shoulders. Under such a gentle offensive, Stephanie couldn't care about who was given the position of regent.After all, everything about the Malik family was given by Salomon, and she couldn't make any decisions against Salomon. "But—" she dragged on until Salomon looked her in the eyes, "—as long as I live, the Malik family will not betray the Immortal City, I assure you."

"That's really sweet." Salomon smiled, hiding his disbelief, "You can take a day off today. Would you like to watch Constantine's mission live broadcast together, maybe there will be guards and evil spirits A knight's duel, I believe it must be wonderful."
