Chapter 1101: A Scam That Deceived the Whole World
"Don't you understand yet? Walt Company is a brokerage company! Its superheroes are equivalent to superstars. No, they are more popular and popular than stars!"
Hueyin Campbell shook his head and said: "The most important thing is that none of these bastards have clean hands. In order to maintain the appearance of glamor, they have to submit."
Gwen Stacy couldn't help but sigh: "It's such a strange world. People who have gained superpowers neither destroy the world, rule the world, nor save the world. Instead, they all become big stars... "
Eddie Brock winked and said: "Then from another perspective, this should be a good thing for the world, right?"
Billy Butcher said coldly: "What a good thing! Could it be that with the cover-up of Walter Company, these scumbags should turn a blind eye to the dirty things they did, right?"
Charles Xavier also agreed with this point of view and said with a serious expression: "Superpowers that are not restricted by law and morality, coupled with greed and inhumane capital, the combination of the two is more terrifying than either of them doing evil alone. Much more."
Hueyin Campbell said excitedly at this moment: "Look, Starlight did it! She announced the conspiracy of Compound No. 5 and Vought Company!"
In the light screen video, a piece of bombshell news set off a huge storm of public opinion, "... Audience friends, we have major news. Superheroes' abilities are not innate, but man-made!
In fact, it was made from a chemical serum called Compound No. 5.
Produced and managed by Vought International, the company that has been the agency for superheroes for decades..."
When Starlight saw this breaking news, she couldn't help but smile happily. This was what she wanted to see.
But at this time, Train came over, and naturally he came to investigate. He was not stupid. When he saw the news, he knew that it was Xingguang, the mole, who had been exposed.
Starlight has really grown a lot. When facing the locomotive, she didn't panic. Instead, she even pulled him onto the pirate ship. Who told you to let me take away Compound No. 5?
Once the matter is exposed, you won't get any good results, and you kid won't think about it either!
Locomotive looked helpless, and at the same time he couldn't understand why Starlight did this. From his point of view, Starlight, as one of the members of the Seven, had already obtained huge benefits from Walter Company.
As a vested interest, are you out of your mind? Do you have to dig your own grave?
If Watt Company really fails, who will pay them in the future and arrange for the navy to clean up the land?
But Xingguang told him righteously: "There are many things in the world that are more important than money!"
The locomotive chuckled, "Only people from a wealthy background can say such things."
Not to mention, what Locomotive said is actually quite realistic. Although it is not correct, it is also an attitude or value of life.
But this also shows how strong the assimilation ability of capital is, and even superpowers will fall prey to it!
At the same time, the news continued to break the news: "...there is evidence that Vought has injected compound No. 5 into young children over the past few decades. According to our reports, the parents of those children have also received The compensation has arrived.”
This is obviously a big scandal. The image that Vought has created in front of the public over the years is very glorious and righteous. People who don't know the truth will compare Vought's Seven with Marvel's Avengers or DC's Justice League.
Now that such an inside story is revealed, it will naturally cause subversive damage to the image of the entire company!
The direct manifestation is that the stock price continues to fall, the person in charge, Stan Edgar, looks gloomy, and Ashley, who replaced Madeline, is panicked.
In addition, the members of the Seven also had different reactions when seeing the news.
Locomotive knew in his heart that it was Starlight who exposed the scandal, and he was worried that the Walter Company would collapse, which would affect his money making. At the same time, he was also worried that Starlight, the mole, would be caught and implicated in him. It can be said that he regretted it. He should have reported it if he had known about it.
The mysterious black man was sitting on the floor in the corridor, looking at the news and smiling but not laughing, crying but not crying. He was obviously very stimulated.
Deep Sea, who was tragically exiled by Walter Corporation, had a complicated expression on his face. Many so-called superpowers, including him, would feel scared and intimidated when they suddenly awakened their superpowers when they were children, worrying that they would turn into monsters.
But their parents deceived them and claimed that this was a gift from God. They were different from birth... Obviously, Starlight's situation is not an exception, but the case of many super humans in the world of Black Robe Pickets. A microcosm!
Queen Maeve also had a similar experience, and compared to others, her father was even more outrageous. He even went so far as to whitewash the Vought Company during a reporter's interview!
Queen Maeve couldn't stand it anymore and called her dad, and the two had a quarrel. It turned out that her dad was a gambler and owed a lot of debts, so he finally 'sold' his daughter to Walter Company!
Outside the light screen video, Eddie Brock said in a deep voice: "I am getting more and more disgusted with this world. Vought Corporation is simply a cancer of human society, just like cancer cells!"
Hueyin Campbell naturally agreed when he heard this: "Yes, they took advantage of the mother's greed for profit, and took advantage of the child's ignorance... and even deceived the whole world! Before this, everyone was kept in the dark. !”
Billy Butcher sneered when he heard this: "Everyone you mentioned does not include me. I already had suspicions when I secretly investigated Watt Company before. It's just that there is a lack of evidence."
"The Vought Corporation is so terrible. They created a big social problem out of hand! Superhumans... turned out to be a scam carefully created by them."
Peter Parker said seriously: "Compound No. 5, this kind of scientific technology that can bring superpowers... is really like Pandora's box. If it is mastered by bad guys, the whole world will suffer!"
Steve Rogers nodded with deep understanding: "That's right, including the Super Soldier Serum we have there. In the future of Sam and Bucky, weren't tragedies one after another surrounding the Super Soldier Serum?"
Eric Lensherr heard their debate, but said indifferently: "There is nothing wrong with extraordinary abilities in itself, just like humans have developed nuclear weapons and missiles, the ultimate weapons that destroy the world.
How you use your superpowers is the key. It seems to me that the world needs some guidance! "
Captain America couldn't help but look thoughtful when he heard this. He also keenly discovered that there is indeed a big difference between the old Magneto and the young Magneto.
