The Bizarre Adventures of One Punch Man

"...What?"

Huey's body trembled, and he looked at the black and white photo of "Locomotive" printed on the upper right corner of the screen with some disbelief.

"Motherlander" turned around, seemed to be adjusting his emotions, and said again after a long time: "He is a great companion, a true hero."

"I suggest that everyone present, in front of the TV, and who has been helped by him, now join in a three-minute silence for him."

The screen on the TV suddenly cut to the distant scene. It can be seen that there are crowds of people in a square. At first glance, the number of people is at least more than 1.

People held the surrounding area of ​​the "locomotive", flags, banners and other support materials in their hands. As the voice of "the motherland" fell, the riots on the scene were gradually replaced by silence, and some people even wiped their tears silently.

To organize such a solemn, solemn and grand farewell ceremony overnight, it is obvious that the public relations department of Walter Group has put a lot of effort and thought into it.

In the Brightman video store, Huey was so excited that his fists were shaking when he saw this scene.

Just yesterday, he watched "Locomotive" smash his beloved girlfriend into a pool of blood like a high drug addict, so that in the funeral ceremony that will be held in the afternoon, only his hands can be buried.

Huey's eyes were about to bleed when he watched the official press conference of the Water Group, and then the bastard who claimed to be from the legal department brought a check and a non-disclosure agreement, but he didn't mention anything about the apology.

Such a cold-blooded behavior has always been cowardly and honest Huey was outraged.

"He unfortunately died because of his heroic fighting against terrorists..."

"It's a good death! It's a great death! Sang oh Bichi..."

Huey waved his fist happily as the "Father of the Motherland" gave an impassioned speech.

"Are you crazy? Huey!"

The middle-aged boss's voice came from the door. Huey shuddered and turned around to see the boss who had just entered the door glaring at him with displeasure.

"Oh, sorry, Gary, I just killed a nasty mosquito, so I can't help it."

With disbelief written all over his face, Gary walked towards the counter with a cold face.

"By the way, Gary, I have to be at Robin's funeral this afternoon, so I guess I'll have to take half a day off..."

"Go ahead, this is what you should do," Gary said without looking up, "but you have to come back tonight, I have to go first, so you have to close the door tonight."

"Of course, I'll come...I mean, thank you, Gary."

"fine."

……

With news of Locomotive's death, no one cares about a video store employee who just lost his girlfriend.

After two days of fermentation, it was not until the third day that the Watt Group finally removed the hot search for condolences on the entire network and replaced it with a new title.

'"Super Seven", regroup! '

'There will be two powerful newcomers joining the group of seven soon to fill the vacancy caused by the retirement of the "Lamplighter" and the death of the "Locomotive"! '

'Superheroes never stop, let's cheer for the dynamic new Seven! '

Hot searches quickly filled the sad atmosphere that had been diluted by time, and explosive posts appeared one after another on the Internet.

Even photos of the dressing room of "Starlight" have leaked.

Of course, in less than two hours, the temporary worker was fired by Water Group, which was surprisingly efficient.

Everything is for publicity and momentum. Under the overwhelming news and public opinion attack, even the angry "Locomotive" fans are gradually brainwashed and want to see what is so eye-catching or mysterious about the so-called new hero.

As a result, when they clicked on the webpage with that curiosity...

Damn it!These chest muscles!

Damn it!These thighs!

Fuck!This uniform is so white!

Fuck!My new husband’s muscles are so big!

Hey, it smells so good!

what?

"locomotive"?

NBCS! (Note: The term Nobody Cares in the rice circle means no one cares, no one cares, and often refers to confused idols.)

……

Tower of Seven.

Group of Seven Command Hall.

"Besides "Starlight", there is another newcomer who is going to join the team. Why don't I know any news about it? "

"People of the Motherland" frowned and looked at the promotional poster in their hands. In the middle of the poster, a man and a woman standing back to back were covered in black shadows, and the words "Coming Soon" were embellished with stars and lightning above.

"Maeve, did you know that?"

"No one informed me of this. How could I know something you don't even know?"

"Queen Maeve" wearing a high imitation Wonder Woman leather armor shrugged her shoulders with a nonchalant expression.

As the strongest of the group of seven after the "Motherland Man" and the only female superhero, she never worried that she would be replaced by a newcomer.

"Motherlander" looked to the other side, and "Black" in black ninja armor sat quietly in his seat, habitually silent.

"Adding two newcomers at once, will the company be too impatient in making such a decision?"

Another member of the seven-member team, wearing a green fish scale armor, said with concern to the standard DC "Sea King" scum hero "Deep Sea".

Although it can also talk to marine life, the strength of "Deep Sea" is not comparable to the genuine version next door.

His size alone has shrunk by several sizes, and his strength and popularity have always been at the bottom among the seven.

Like the "locomotive" who just held the farewell ceremony, the two are basically a pair of crouching dragons and phoenix chicks competing for the top two, the two whose positions are the least secure.

Azu tapped the table impatiently: "Is there no one who can provide some useful information?"

"Then when newcomers join, I really have to consider replacing a batch of useless waste."

The voice of the "Motherlander" was merciless, and the air in the command hall fell silent.

Anyone who knows his character knows that there is absolutely no such thing as inviting colleagues, so Azu was not joking with everyone at this time.

"Emma... I may have some gossip here, boss."

A tight-fitting battle suit of the same style as Mr. Fantastic raised his hand. The three-dimensional battle suit can directly see the inside through the collar and sleeves, as if wearing it is an invisible ghost.

"Go ahead, I need you to show your worth, Invisible Man. "

The "Motherlander" raised his hand, motioning for the other party to continue talking.

Chapter 124 Starlight

"Deep Sea" on the other side shrank back, he knew very well who the trash in the mouth of "Motherlander" was referring to.

It turned out that there was someone accompanying him to get scolded, but now "Locomotive" is dead...

He already missed that idiot who only ate calories all day long.

"I was in the toilet... Uh, no, I overheard some news that another new member seemed to be specially recruited by the board of directors."

The "invisible man" said, revealing his original appearance, a greasy middle-aged man with hairspray on his head, because he can control the carbon skin to achieve complete optical invisibility, so he often takes off his naked body and hides in some corners eavesdropping on information.

Fortunately, he also has a superhuman physique, and he has not been troubled by any diseases for walking birds all year round.

"It is said that another rookie has the speed of a "locomotive" and uses a pair of high-tech pistols that can release electric currents as weapons, which is also one of his selling points. "

Hearing that the new members also have exclusive high-tech equipment, "Deep Sea" looked a little displeased.

"Why has the technical department never mentioned that there is such equipment? I think I can use similar weapons."

Leaving aside those advantages in water, his combat effectiveness can be said to be the worst in the group of seven.

Although the dead ghost "Locomotive" is also not good at fighting, once it runs, its destructive power is still enough.

In the United States, the vast majority of crimes tend to occur on land.

This makes "Deep Sea" look like a fish with soy sauce when it participates in team formation for heroic activities.

Even though his body is strong enough to withstand machine gun bullets.

"If you want to electrocute yourself in the sea, you can apply for one."

"The Invisible Man" sneered.

Seeing that "Deep Sea" did not speak, he turned to "Motherlander".

"Boss, that's all I know."

"Find a replacement for 'Locomotive'?I see. "

Having said that, Azu still had some doubts in his heart.

Among the speedsters, apart from "Locomotive" who has always been ranked number one, the most competitive one is "Shockwave", a white hero whose top speed can also reach the speed of sound.

As far as he knew, "Shockwave" had not made any statements recently. With his character, if he had been selected to replace "Locomotive" in the seven-man team, everyone would have known about it long ago.

Maybe you can ask Madeleine...

Azu's Adam's apple moved subconsciously, and his mind was full of Madeleine's warm and milky embrace like a mother when he was seeking comfort yesterday.

Forget it, don't bother her with such trivial matters.

Anyway, we’ll find out when the official press conference comes out tomorrow.

"Okay, let's discuss the next agenda."

The "Motherlander" made a decision, stood up immediately, supported the table with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and looked at his team members aggressively.

"The death of "Locomotive" means that his share of dividends is temporarily vacated, and of course, the share of "Lamplighter". "

"While the newcomers haven't joined yet, if you have anything you want to say, feel free to put it forward."

"If it is a suitable proposal, I will consider it."

As soon as this remark came out, the eyes of all the heroes present lit up, including "Black" who sat upright a little.

Except for a hot man, no one would not love money.

Superheroes are certainly no exception.

A discussion about the division of interests quickly started, and the atmosphere in the hall gradually became heated.

At this time, only "Queen Maeve" with long chestnut hair seemed a little unconcerned.

After simply expressing his opinion, he looked boredly at the sky outside the window.

It seemed that the quarrels of the group of people at the discussion table had nothing to do with her.

Once upon a time, Maeve also joined the group of seven with the dream of being a hero in her heart.

Until now, all the bullshit heroic dreams have been obliterated by the stinky reality.

Superheroes are just a group of ordinary people who accidentally mastered superpowers, and their personalities are even worse than ordinary people.

She had long seen through this fact and was inevitably assimilated by it.

To her, superhero is just a decent job.

To put it bluntly, it is bad.

Clock in and commute, the income is not bad, that's all.

……

Click!

Click!

"Starlight" with blond curly hair, wearing a platinum battle uniform, stepped out of the limousine sent by the Walter Group with her mother, Donna.

Standing with your feet on the red carpet that was laid out in advance, the towering seven-person tower is right in front of you.

For "Starlight" who has worked hard to enter here since childhood, all this now seems like a dream.

The sky was still lightly raining just now, but this did not affect the enthusiasm of the fans.

As the lucky one who stood out in the audition, "Starlight" gained a large number of fans with her sweet girl-next-door appearance and strong personal strength.

Even though she has not officially joined the "Super Seven", the support rate on the official website has already surpassed that of "Locomotive" who just died.

You must know that the fighting power of LSP and powerful fans has always been obvious to all in the fan circle.
