Chapter 494: The tip of the iceberg, the dark black robe worldview
Chapter 494: The tip of the iceberg, the dark black robe worldview
This scene not only scared Hughie to death, but also scared the superheroes outside the screen. It was the first time that they truly realized how terrifying their own power could be.
A speedster like Quicksilver, who is often teased by them and doesn't even have a strong presence, can cause such terrible damage to ordinary people.
What a terrifying initial velocity is required to turn a person into blood plasma in one go.
It was at this moment that they finally understood that they were different from ordinary people after all.
In the divine timeline, it was necessary for Tony Stark to restrict Peter Parker from using the Iron Spider suit and restrict him from using the one-hit-kill mode, as a child cannot control such power.
"Be a little more careful when you run next time." Wanda glanced at her brother and said.
It was also the first time that she realized what terrible consequences would occur if her brother ran at full speed.
"What a joke, do you think I'm the locomotive? From your perspective, it may have happened in a split second, but in my eyes, I have enough time to change everything. In my eyes, it's not that fast." Quicksilver said immediately. "I swear on the honor of the speedster, this guy is definitely not normal, he must have taken drugs, otherwise how could he behave like this."
Quicksilver hurriedly explained himself. He didn't want to be seen as a restless person in the eyes of everyone, so he had to explain himself clearly.
In fact, under normal circumstances, his actions are very controllable.
Although he is very fast, his reaction nerves and dynamic vision are even more abnormal. It is impossible for him to kill someone by driving too fast.
This locomotive is definitely not normal.
At this time, everyone also remembered that Lin Feng’s diary had shown the perspective of a speedster more than once. Generally speaking, from their perspective, the trend was not that dangerous.
They generally have enough reaction time to deal with the problem.
Their brains are also different from those of ordinary people. They have extremely amazing processing speeds. To some extent, it is actually equivalent to supercomputer-level computing power.
Anyway, a normal human brain would definitely not be able to react to it.
The scene changed and showed a girl exercising, but her exercise method was different from that of ordinary people. For example, she could smash a wall with one punch and lift a car with ease, so that everyone could see that she was undoubtedly a superhero.
Or a powerful human with superhero powers.
Captain America Rogers seems to be so similar to him. It seems that he is like this when he is training his strength.
And this woman is Xingguang.
The scene changed and Xingguang was recording her self-introduction in front of the camera.
"My name is Xingguang, I weigh 50 kilograms, and I am meters tall..."
Then they were asked to turn around, and this feeling made everyone frown. What was this?
Draft?
This feeling seems even more inconsistent.
At this time, they finally began to truly understand what Lin Feng said about what it felt like to turn superheroes into entertainment, and even had to pass a urine test.
There are even beauty pageants for female superheroes.
This weird world made everyone shake their heads. The existence of a female superhero beauty pageant showed that there were many female superheroes, or women with superhero abilities. This also proved what Lin Feng said in his diary, that compound No. 5 created them, and it was mass-produced.
It was this Vought Corporation that made superheroes seem like a very common phenomenon.
Through the perspective of Starlight, everyone seemed to see the tip of the iceberg of that world. Even if you are a superhero, so what? Even if you are a superhero, you have to kneel down in front of capital.
You have to take part in superhero beauty pageants, you have to take part in superhero talent shows, you have to take interviews at companies set up by capitalists, and if they ask you to take a urine test you have to take it, and if they ask you to spin in circles you have to spin in circles.
Are the superhumans the scariest people in this world?
No, it's those super capitalists who possess superpowers that make you kneel on the ground.
Everyone was lost in thought, and in the picture, Hughie, as an ordinary person, was in a daze, still immersed in Robin's death. He couldn't accept that his girlfriend was gone like this, and even turned into blood plasma right in front of him.
After the funeral, it seemed as if everyone could accept his passing, except himself.
He also had to look at the locomotive in the picture and pretend to apologize, saying that he was chasing a bank robber and she was standing in the middle of the road and he had no way to get out of the way.
"In the middle of the road? She was only half a step away from the sidewalk," Hughie said angrily when he heard this.
A moment later, the person in charge of handling the aftermath of Vought arrived. He said in a formal tone: "Everyone at Vought feels sorry for Robin, but listen, you two are not married yet, so strictly speaking you don't have the right to claim compensation, but Vought wants to do the right thing, which is to prepare a compensation of 45,000 US dollars for you. You just need to sign here, and then I will give you the check."
And Huey took one look at the agreement and said, "Is this a confidentiality agreement?"
There was a lot of dissatisfaction in his words. "This is just a routine clause." The clerk said with a fake smile.
"If I sign this, I can't ever talk about this again. I have to pretend it never happened, like I never held Robin's severed hand?"
At this time, Hughie asked angrily.
"Look, I know you're angry, but we just want to help," the clerk said.
"But you say sorry. You guys say we are mourning, I sympathize, I am sorry, but none of you dare to look me in the eye and say sorry." Huey said more and more excitedly. "I won't sign anything. Get out of here."
He even wanted to grab the clerk by the collar and roar like a madman: "I say, get out of here."
But he was just an ordinary cowardly man and didn't have the courage at all.
Everything that just happened was just his fantasy, and the clerk opposite him said calmly: "Are you okay? As I said, this is really just a routine clause, a procedural thing."
"Can I think about it?"
Faced with all this, Huey didn't have the courage to roar. He was an ordinary person who didn't even have the courage to ask for leave.
The clerk opposite seemed to have seen through it all. He handed over a business card and said, "If you have any questions..."
He pointed to the business card.
He knew that the man in front of him would not refuse. What does 45,000 US dollars mean? According to the average wage in the United States, it is equivalent to one year's salary.
And if we take into account the fact that Americans tend not to save money, it can be said that 90% of Americans will not be able to save that much money in their lifetime.
This is undoubtedly a very generous reward for most Americans.
She's just a girlfriend. If she's gone, she's gone. So what?
When the people outside the screen saw this scene, they felt very solemn, especially for Nick Fury, he was too familiar with the working style of the Vought Corporation.
It's simply a replica of S.H.I.E.L.D. To be precise, S.H.I.E.L.D. is also divided into different departments. There is the Science Department responsible for research, the Operations Department responsible for actions, and the Logistics Department responsible for cleaning up all kinds of messes that the Operations Department has.
It can be said that the logistics department of SHIELD often encounters such situations when they go to clean up the mess.
When their team of SHIELD agents are on missions outside, it cannot be said that they have no impact on the people around them. For example, when hunting down some aliens, some vampires and some werewolves may pose a huge threat to ordinary people.
And they are just ordinary agents, not the legendary superheroes, so it is inevitable that there will be omissions of one kind or another.
At this time, the logistics department will step in to deal with these issues, including compensation for damaged buildings, compensation for personal injuries, etc.
So professional and direct.
But their SHIELD is a supranational organization authorized by the five major powers that is superior to ordinary countries and has the authorization of the five most powerful powers, while the Vought Corporation is just an ordinary company.
And this was not an accidental injury caused while trying to save people, this was clearly a massacre.
And Quicksilver just explained that it is impossible for them, the speedsters, to act so recklessly, which means that the killing this time was clearly intentional.
At this time, their impression of the Water Company had really fallen to the extreme.
Judging from what the locomotive did and how skillfully they covered up the incident afterwards, it means that such a thing may have happened more than once.
That is why they are able to propose such compensation so skillfully and in a procedural manner.
But all of this has been overshadowed by the light of superheroes. No one knows how evil the Water Corporation is. Now only the tip of the iceberg has been revealed, but it is enough to show how terrifying they are.
Especially Tony Stark, he is also a superhero and owns one of the best companies in the world, so he knows very well what the superheroes think, but he also knows very well what the capitalists think.
The Vought Company, which is able to control all these superheroes so well, is extremely powerful.
However, just the tip of the iceberg that was revealed was enough to make a big capitalist like him feel frightened.
It turns out that the most terrifying people in this world are capitalists. Super criminals are nothing. They all have to settle down and work for me.
