No matter how powerful the pharmaceutical giants are, there is no way to force the ruling class to lie down and die as equals instead of treating diseases.

In fact, at present, the medical profession in the United States can’t even cure itself: because they are in the hospital and have more contact with patients, more than 70% of the doctors and nurses in the United States have been infected with the COVID virus at least once, and half of the doctors and nurses have been infected. Death from plague, or being weak after illness and forced to recuperate.

Under such circumstances, how can the pharmaceutical giants allow the country's ruling class to destroy this life-saving straw, regardless of their own safety?

——Bad money has always eliminated good money, and there is no reason for quack doctors to eliminate genius doctors!

But even though there is no way to eradicate the other party, there is no doubt about the resentment and hostility of the medical community towards the superhuman who has mastered healing magic.

Of course, the pharmaceutical giants did not completely eradicate all magical treatments, or even defeat the delusion of the gods and demons.

Because they knew that if what Akiyama Megumi said about "spiritual energy revives and mysteriously returns" is true, then all kinds of gods and demons will come in droves, and they will not be able to block them, and it is impossible to kill them all with one shot—— At least the pharmaceutical giants do not have such power.

Therefore, the idea of ​​the major pharmaceutical giants and other capitalists in the United States is to try to incorporate these gods and their priests, just like the domestication unions back then, and use the baton of capital and law to drive the gods like dogs and horses, turning the gods into The capitalist's laborer...

Of course, the standard capitalists in the United States, after years of labor-capital games, are not the "Emperor of the Earth" type capitalists in the East who are reluctant to pay wages, tolerate the slightest bit of complaints, and like to domineering and ostentatious—as long as they can drive everyone God and his church are for their own use, so they are willing to give all kinds of superficial respect and worship, as well as top material golden collar treatment.

If it had been hard to give up good fortune and never raised anything, the United States might not have survived the Great Depression, let alone win the Cold War.

But if you want to tame the gods, in addition to carrots, you also need a big stick-how can you stand above the gods if you don't fully destroy the arrogance of the gods?

At the same time, even those capitalists who seem to be friendly with Akiyama Megumi and other extraordinary people, such as Disney, are actually friendly on the surface, but these cunning people also do not forget to secretly support the opposition in some beating and probing .

Because, they also hope to find out the weakness of these supernatural forces, so as to occupy a more favorable position in the cooperation...

——Of course, this doesn't prevent Disney from giving the news to Megumi Akiyama and others to show that they are selling well while fighting the fire.

As a result, Wizards of the Coast, which has been closed for sale, became the first stone thrown by American capitalists for a tentative blow.

Megumi Akiyama's cheap mother, Yuki Akiyama, and the goddess of the forest and knight-errants, Merika, became the first soft persimmons to be pinched.

——From the perspective of Wizards of the Coast, the IP in his hand suddenly changed from fantasy to reality. At first glance, it seems extremely romantic and beautiful, but in fact it is a very headache: because of the right to use and adapt the IP And the distribution rights of various derivatives are tantamount to losing.

For example, with the advent of the forest and ranger goddess Melika, if Wizards of the Coast wants to launch a new setting about the goddess Melika, they have to consult her deity.And if the Melika Church releases any promotional materials, it will not pay anyone the copyright fee...

In this way, if all the IP in the hands of Wizards of the Coast turned from fantasy to reality, wouldn't these copyrights evaporate?

So, who will belong to the IP of the goddess of the forest and the knight-errant Melika in the future, and should the goddess Melika pay compensation to Wizards of the Coast for her birth?Should Melikai herself even be considered a legal property of Wizards of the Coast?All these problems have to be torn apart!

——With this seemingly reasonable excuse, Wizards of the Coast, as the first wave of cannon fodder, bravely launched PUA (mind control) to God!

Chapter 168, Turning into Shameful and Useless

"...According to the current messy business situation of Netflix, although Netflix has expressed a certain acquisition intention when Wizards of the Coast was listed for sale in May, it is simply unable to raise enough funds in a short period of time. Funding, and not much actual action has been taken.

However, just a few days ago, Netflix suddenly received a large capital injection and an interest-free loan, which was immediately used to acquire Wizards of the Coast.And the subsequent process of Wizards' transfer and change of ownership was also unreasonably fast, and all relevant departments did not give the green light all the way, but handled special matters.

From what I've been told and hints from Disney, the White House and Capitol Hill have exerted extreme pressure during this period to facilitate this. "

Ms. Freya's agent talked so eloquently, and said to everyone present, "...Next, on the same day that Netflix completed the acquisition of Wizards of the Coast, the new president who was airborne by Netflix to Wizards of the Coast , appealed to the Florida court regarding the IP of the goddess Melikai.

Next, before we received the news and responded, the case was handed over to the federal court in the capital..."

"...Wait, isn't the headquarters of Netflix in California? Why did you go to Florida to appeal?" Dolores suddenly discovered the BUG.

"...Ah, since the [zombies] appeared in California two months ago, Netflix has moved its headquarters to Florida." Freya said.

"...Uh, although Florida used to be a swing state, in recent years, both government and civilian circles have been dominated by reds. Today's governor of Florida is even more red-necked. And Mr. President's Mar-a-Lago is also In Palm Beach, Florida..."

Megumi Akiyama's cheap mother, Yuki Akiyama, rubbed her forehead and said—speaking of which, when she was in Japan, she didn't care much about politics, but when it came to the United States and it was an election year, the news media was full of the president and congressmen every day , The governors complained to each other, and they knew something over time.

"...Hey, Wall Street bosses who want to beat the gods as 'gods above gods'; Republicans who want to make trouble for the deep blue state in the election year-especially the current president in the White House; who want to use priests as slave labor Medical and pharmaceutical groups; Netflix, which wants to play against Disney..."

Megumi Akiyama spread his hands, "...there are the Democratic Party and the Pentagon who hide their knives in their smiles? Mom, there are so many people who want to harm you!"

"...Why are these big men eager to attack us before even the demons occupying the Space Needle can be wiped out?"

The first leader of the "Seattle Commune" sitting on the side, Laura, the vegetarian Internet celebrity "Queen of Beans", complained for some reason, "...Don't they know that we are waiting to serve a good god? "

"...It is precisely because everyone knows that the goddess of the forest and the ranger, Merika, is a good god, that's why she was kicked on the nose!"

Akiyama Megumi glanced at her, "...you don't think that the ruler of this country is actually from the lawful and good camp?"

"Queen Bean" Laura couldn't help but blushed when she heard the words, and she had no choice but to stay silent.

Although the soft power of the Hollywood media in the United States is the best in the world, it is fair to say that Hollywood has never directly touted the rulers of its own country—whether it is the government on the surface or the plutocrats behind the scenes—as saints. Self-darkness never stops.

Coupled with the various revelations made by Wang Wang who has his own traffic during his four years in power, many unspoken rules that were hidden in the past have also been exposed.

So everyone understands that this country can only be described as lawful evil at best - and it is gradually slipping from lawful evil to chaotic evil.

If it is now, there is still an American who thinks that the princes on Capitol Hill in Washington are a bunch of sages with morality and a big picture... Then he must not be a real American living in the United States, but There is no official "spiritual American" at all.

Even Americans, no matter how enthusiastic they are about politics, think that the so-called general election is nothing more than "choosing the less stinky one out of two shits".

"...Yeah, who made the forest queen belong to the good camp?"

Akiyama Megumi's cheap mother also sighed and muttered, "...in this world, good people deserve to be bullied! We want to cooperate and win-win, but others still want to kill pigs and sheep with you...I just don't have enough Evil, so after all, it is incompatible with this country!"

——Among the rules set by DND, although the gods are high above, they cannot do whatever they want.If you rashly take any actions that seriously violate the priesthood and teachings, the camp will shift or even degenerate, which is equivalent to the human design, no, the divine design collapses.

For example, the once elegant, dignified and beautiful, and full of positive energy, A Luoshi, the goddess of fate, became a perverted, twisted, monster-like spider god after experiencing a series of deaths and fights, resulting in her degeneration into an evil god. After Rose.

And if Merika, the goddess of the forest and ranger who is in the chaotic good camp, falls, it will really become an indescribable appearance.

Therefore, just as the good people in "Let the Bullets Fly" should be pointed at gunpoint, the good god of DND is also destined to be tossed by the law.

In contrast, God Inari & Tamazamae & Empress Daji, because they can switch from good gods to evil gods at will, are rather daunting.

As for the Flying Noodle God, because he didn't care about anything, those who wanted to deal with him couldn't do it for a while.

What's more, there are too many FSM Choices nowadays. Even if you want to sue or complain, you don't know who to turn to.

You can't just send the lawyer's letter or subpoena to the master of flying noodles, right?If the other party comes again and says "cooking is not sticky", won't the government have to sit on the wax?

This is why the American capitalists chose Akiyama Megumi's cheap mother, and the forest and knight-errant goddess Melika behind Ms. Bullying the other party is not easy to follow.

Next, the IP copyright was used as an excuse to conduct a test. The attacker thought he was on the side of "reasonable", but the forest goddess was at a loss.

In the end, those coastal wizards who actually wrote the DND rule book are not qualified to participate in decision-making, not even qualified to be consultants.

The mastermind behind the scenes is completely based on his past experience, dealing with the gods like suppressing competitors-it is right to seek the sword.

According to the thoughts of the tempters, they were just beating a little, and had no intention of putting the goddess to death.

In this way, Goddess Melikai shouldn't react too violently... right?

In fact, according to DND's settings, the goddess Melikai is not a good-tempered master, let alone reason with mortals.

In her eyes, at least nine out of ten of the world's big capitalists have evil red light, and there is no reason to hack them to death.

If this is the Faerun continent of the planet Toril, a group of evil people who are not covered by a true god dare to offend her so much, and actually try to snatch her right to use the "God Name", and even want to become the master of the god... She had already thrown a divine punishment in spite of herself!

If you don't give these greedy people a little color, and if you don't beat the early birds to death, won't everyone be bullied in the future? ——The Forest Goddess of the chaotic and good camp is not a law-abiding existence. Her legal awareness is not as good as that of the lawful and evil devil!

However, in today's America, the goddess Melikai is really a bit restrained for the time being, and she can't do things as she pleases.

"...In the final analysis, it is because the size of the United States is too large, and half of the United States is still outside the power projection range of the gods and demons."

Qiu Shanhui complained, "...Even if the queen of the forest became angry and wanted to bring down divine punishment, she would not be able to reach the capital!"

——The current boundary of this wave of aura recovery on the North American continent has only spread past Denver in the east, and has just extended into Kansas...

In other words, the gods have nothing to do with Washington, the capital further east, and Netflix, which has relocated to Florida.

Even if you can kill a few young people who recklessly ran to the western United States, as long as you can't kill the mastermind behind the scenes, it won't have the effect of warning and deterrence.

Under the circumstances that this kind of supernatural ability is difficult to be directly effective, the forest goddess suddenly felt a little numb.

Moreover, the few new allies she has made now all have an attitude of watching the show with their arms folded, and they have no idea of ​​fighting against the enemy at all.

——Facing Akiyama Yusue, the cheap mother who abandoned her (predecessor) eight years ago, the attitude of the traveler Akiyama Megumi is generally the same, and there is definitely no way to be filial as a serious mother: Help Of course, there is no problem with one hand, but it takes a lot of effort to avoid it.

Behind Megumi Akiyama, the ancient fox god Yuzaoqian, and the cat god Buster, did not take the initiative to help the forest goddess.

Because today's copyright disputes are only the troubles of the forest and the ranger goddess Melika herself-not to mention the Japanese Inari God and the Chinese Empress Daji have nothing to do with Wizards of the Coast, even if there are DND gods The Egyptian cat god Buster, but Wizards of the Coast doesn't have Buster's IP.

——The ancient gods of Egypt became the copyright patent of an American game company, which is a ridiculous thing in itself.

Just like Disney, even with the strongest legal department on the ground, there is no way to prevent others from filming "Snow White", "Aladdin", "Beauty and the Beast", and "The Little Mermaid" (the same year Disney made the live-action version of Aladdin , Indian Bollywood also made one).

The IPs of these literary masterpieces are treasures belonging to the world's literary and art circles. How could they be monopolized by a single company?

Since it is only the troubles of the forest and game goddess Melika's family, the Church of Melika should also find a way to solve it.

You know, things like covenants can be concluded, torn up, or changed.

——If the goddess of the forest, Melika, can't even solve this little trouble, is she still qualified to be an ally on an equal footing with Tamazamae?

In this seemingly isolated and helpless situation, Megumi Akiyama's cheap mother Yuki Akiyama suddenly felt a little stressed.

It's only been a few days since she became a Goddess Chosen, and she hasn't had time to adjust her mentality yet, so how do she know how to make a decision?

So, in the end, she chose not to be ashamed to ask, and asked her daughter Huihui for help—it's nothing to be ashamed to bow to her own children.

"...Mom, you have immigrated to the United States for eight years, and I have only been in the United States for half a year. You should know more about the legal issues of copyright patents than me! What's more, you were originally a part-time employee of Wizards of the Coast. People, why do you ask me this layman?"

Seeing that the cheap mother has bowed her head so much, Akiyama Hui couldn't ignore the joke, so she could only sigh and said, "...But, according to my estimation, the Wizards of the Coast is probably not the only one who uses legal weapons to deal with you. , there will be more imitators in the future..."

"...Eh? Is there someone else who wants to sue?" Ms. Qiushan Xuee was stunned when she heard this.

"...That's right. Since someone is certain that Her Highness Melikai is a good god... Ah, please forgive me for calling the god's name directly. After all, there will be more and more forest gods in this plane in the future, and the name is It is used to distinguish—since Wizards of the Coast and the benefactor behind it have used the kindness of His Royal Highness Melikay to persecute and oppress, even at the risk of blasphemy, then others will soon follow suit. "

Akiyama Megumi looked at Freya, "... For example, my manager lady mentioned to me a risk—Mom, you planted a sacred tree in this baseball field, as if you regarded it as a plum tree. The Holy Land of Rika Church. But the question is, is the land of this baseball field really yours?"

"...Ah! This..." Akiyama Yukie realized belatedly that, as a good god, Mei Likai should not take other people's land by force?

"...So, if the sacred tree can be moved, I suggest you leave the urban area and go to the suburbs. Mom."

Qiu Shanhui said to the cheap mother, "...the holy land of the forest goddess should be in the countryside, how can it be placed in the noisy city?"

That night, the "World Tree" at the Safeco Baseball Stadium in downtown Seattle suddenly disappeared, leaving only a piece of ruins that were squeezed by the roots and the walls were cracked. Oozed out, and turned into a big mud pool...

It wasn't until the next day that this towering world tree reappeared in the Washington Botanical Garden in the north of the city.

Another day later, without Kei Akiyama's support, Mr. Daniel bite the bullet and assembled 3000 people to face the "LGBTQIAPKDX+" sexual minorities entrenched in the Space Needle in downtown Seattle and the big demon Grazter who bewitched them. A clearing operation was carried out.

Originally, Daniel thought that there might be a hard fight, but it turned out that it was all over in one fell swoop, and the situation was overwhelming.

——The Great Demon "Lord of Darkness" Graz'zt, at this time, had already fled without a trace with two tiefling girls who had just transformed their bloodlines.Only a group of "LGBTQIAPKDX+" who were bewitched into confusion and muddled were left, sitting on the lawn around the Space Needle waiting to die.

At this point, the Battle of Seattle is initially over, and the remaining matters can no longer be solved by relying solely on the army.

Then, "transferred" to the Forest Goddess Melikai Church in the Washington Botanical Garden, was sued by the owner of the Safeco Baseball Stadium, demanding that Ms. Akiyama Yukie pay compensation for the severely damaged baseball stadium...

PS: Mihayou wants to invest in spaceflight and build Yuanshen rockets?Uh, isn't this style of painting a bit wrong?

Chapter 169, Asking the Goddess of Law for Tactical Guidance

7th of July, National Day of the United States of America

Although the riots in downtown Seattle have been basically subsided, the city is still devastated and there is no festive atmosphere.

The famous Pike Place Market has been turned into scorched earth, and the whole city is full of ruins of burned houses, as well as looted shops and supermarkets.Most of the citizens fled.Running water and power were not restored in more than half the city center, and the streets were riddled with bullet marks and shop windows.

The evil spirits that haunt the city at night have not been completely eliminated, and there are still rumors of "ghost houses" in many places.

In addition, the messy Seattle container port that has been tossed has continued to be paralyzed for the time being and has not resumed operation immediately.

——According to expert survey reports, the full resumption of work at the Port of Seattle, even under the smoothest circumstances, will take about two months at the fastest: because many important infrastructures were destroyed in the riots and urgently need repairs There are also a large number of skilled dock workers infected with the "Corona" plague. Even if they can recover, they will be difficult to engage in heavy physical and high-intensity dock loading and unloading work because of their weakness and physical decline.

Although some people suggested that dockworkers could be transferred from the destroyed Los Angeles port to the Seattle port to fill the human resource gap, not to mention the Los Angeles port, there are still piles of wounded and sick at the moment. It will take a while to transfer people and get in touch with each other.

What's more, even if the terminal resumes work, there is still a shortage of drivers who drive large trucks. Even if the salary has tripled, there is still a shortage of truck drivers everywhere.

In short, at least until this fall, it is impossible for the container terminal of the Port of Seattle to resume normal operation.

In addition, the law and order situation in Seattle is also very worrying-the army's suppression operations only cleared out the thugs who openly occupied the streets and park squares, but could not wipe out the hiding insects.When night falls, all kinds of zero dollar purchases and other crimes will emerge together.

However, due to the insane operation of the Seattle City Government and the City Council, the Seattle police were dismissed, so that there is now a blank period of unmanaged law and order in Seattle: there are no police officers, what can the government do to maintain order?Gangs or Militia?

It's just that it's hard to get rid of the shame, and the Seattle police, who have been forcibly disbanded by the city government, can't call it back for a while.

Besides, these policemen were expelled by the mayor angrily because they forcibly disobeyed orders and went on strike. Does the mayor want to bow to them now?

How can this work?The superiority and inferiority of the upper and lower cannot be confused!Do you want dignity and face? !So, find another way!

The mayor of Seattle, who doesn't want the city to become a lawless place, can only find a way to negotiate a price with a security company, and plans to set up a security company as a substitute for the police—now the water, electricity and rail companies in this world can be privatized Well, of course the police department can also be privatized, and the army may also be privatized in the future... Well, when the nobles were entrusted in the past, the army was originally privatized, so this is at best a retro!
