Superman of the American Comics - Chapter 477
New York, horn daily.
“Don’t you have anything new to take out?”
The newspaper owner named “j-jonah James” angrily threw a pile of prepared news materials on the table.
This mean and vicious young man just inherited this small newspaper from his father not long ago, which has been running since World War II.
Unlike the kindness and kindness of old James, little James has a hot temper, likes to satirize others, and his mouth is unforgiving.
These days, almost all the employees of horn daily have been scolded by him.
“Let me see, ah, Tony Stark… A rich second generation who has just graduated from MIT. You have nothing to report except his lace and gossip every day?”
James raised his voice and said loudly, “New Yorkers like to read gossip, but they are not interested in the dissolute life of dandies with the name of genius and who are good for nothing except picking up girls!”
“If you want to dig, you should also keep an eye on Howard stark. For example, Stark’s father and son go to a nightclub and compete with each other for a stripper… That’s the hot stuff!”
The employee who shrunk his neck and endured the scolding of the boss weakly reminded: “Howard Stark is the chief scientific research consultant of the Divine Shield Bureau. He is a national public official. If someone is found tracking, our paparazzi may be killed on the spot as a spy.”
James’s incessant venomous voice suddenly stopped. He scratched his head and cut off the topic: “Howard stark can’t, then you dig mutants. The guy who often ends on TV, Charles, or another one, the magnet king? The metal king? Is the mutant who controls metal anyway!”
“Magneto.”
The employee corrected.
“What do you say? It’s really not good. You can find some materials, write a memoir about Superman’s sleep, and interview the retired captain of the United States.”
Because his father lived well, Tony Stark failed to inherit the family business and become a young rich man.
Losing the status of Stark’s industrial helm is far from attracting the attention of the public only in the name of genius.
Therefore, in the eyes of the horn daily, it is not so attractive.
On the original timeline, Tony Stark is a newspaper darling who feeds half of the New York paparazzi alone.
“Boss, I got the message!”
The female secretary in high heels came in with her mobile phone.
“My best friend’s boyfriend, his former high school classmate’s girlfriend’s uncle… A staff member in the Information Office of the Divine Shield Bureau, he told me that the Divine Shield Bureau has big news.”
James was dizzy by the complex relationship. He only caught the two key words “Divine Shield bureau” and “big news”.
Unlike the s.h.i.e.l.e.l.d. controlled by director marinated egg, Luke did not deliberately hide its existence.
Therefore, the public knows that behind this is the complex organization of the five major countries responsible for international crises.
“Try to get in!”
James clapped his hands excitedly. The horn daily, a tabloid without a large group background and official certification, naturally couldn’t get the invitation.
“You can spend as much as you want. You must not lag behind other media!”
……
……
When the s.h.i.e.l.e.l.d. wants to hold a press conference, the major media flock like sharks smelling blood.
Some newspapers that were not invited also tried every means to sneak into the meeting.
Even if only a few photos are taken, the headlines in the next few days will be guaranteed.
Half an hour later, on the 22nd floor of the headquarters building of the s.h.i.e.l.d. on the Potomac River.
The hall was crowded with reporters from various newspapers, and piles of long guns and short guns were aimed at the stage.
“Isn’t today’s speaker Ms. Carter?”
Some reporters rushed to doubt.
As the current top commander of the s.h.i.e.l.d., Peggy usually acts as a spokesman.
Originally, the latter had thought of giving Howard the task. He liked to be in the limelight most.
But after several attempts, I found that this man who has married, had children, started a family and career, and entered middle age loves to play freely every time.
The press conference was not serious, like a talk show.
Therefore, Peggy chose to go on her own, and Howard was forbidden to touch the microphone again.
“What’s the news? I remember the big battle a few years ago, or because the mutants made a big event in the Middle East.”
Another reporter guessed.
As an international organization, the s.h.i.e.l.l.d. does not specifically follow the orders of any country.
A few years ago, the Shijie Gang made a lot of trouble in the Middle East.
After contacting the White Queen Emma and obtaining the consent.
S.h.i.e.l.d. sent magneto and his Brotherhood to that chaotic place.
Later, a guy who claimed to be man appeared. He was the master of the Shijie gang.
The young magneto and the other side are inseparable, and each other has a victory or defeat.
Finally, the divine spear bureau came forward and brought adult man back to China.
However, the impact of that time was too great, resulting in pressure on public opinion.
The s.h.i.e.l.e.l.d. specially came forward to explain and praised magneto as the leader of the younger generation of mutants.
“Start in two minutes!”
Natasha, with her wine red wavy hair, tried the microphone, checked other equipment and said to the media under the stage.
The latter turned on the camera and prepared pens and small books.
Two minutes later, a tall figure came out of the background.
Before he spoke, there was an uproar under the stage.
The flash, the sound of pressing the shutter, the dull expression of those reporters… All prove the meaning of this person.
The whole world will change greatly again because of his appearance.
……
……
On the other side, the skuru’s secret base.
They gathered in the dark room against the human face.
Among them are politicians, businessmen and even senior agents of the Divine Shield Bureau.
“The s.h.i.e.l.e.l.d. just had a press conference. Is there any news on the scene?”
The skuru leader who had just met “Nick Frey” walked into the room.
“Just a few minutes ago, I received news that two compatriots disappeared. It is likely that Peggy Carter found something wrong and wanted to disclose the news of the skurus.”
The skuru, who wore the senator’s appearance, sneered and said, “then others will only treat her as a madman. When everyone denies the truth, the truth will become false.”
The imperial advance force, skilled in infiltration, detection and chaos, knows this routine well.
They have made large-scale wars on no less than 20 planets, leading to the extinction of one race and civilization after another.
The earth is the next goal.
“There’s news coming back.”
Said the skuru, posing as a White House aide.
He clicked on his projector and broadcast the news conference live.
“I’m Superman.”
The tall man standing on the stage whispered.
Metal armor, dark red cloak, with the young face that has appeared in documentaries and promotional films countless times.
The reporters on the stage were stunned.
This is the real big news!
Superman Returns!
Open your eyes from the deep sleep, get out of the sleeping cabin and return to the human world!
The skurus in the room also opened their mouths. They didn’t get any news at all.
When did Peggy Carter, who was under 24-hour surveillance, wake up Superman?
Skuru people even controlled Nick Frey. How could they not have heard of such a big thing?
“What should I do now?”
All the members of the imperial advance force looked at Howard stark, their leader.
“Why don’t you… Consider a strategic retreat? Call back when you know Superman’s real combat power?”
Someone suggested.
If Superman is really as powerful as those documentaries and propaganda films, it may not be possible to carry out this operation only by an advance force of the skuru empire.
“We are all the elite of the Empire. Are we still afraid of human beings on earth?”
Some people disagree.
The leader of skuru was silent. He raised his right hand and entered the entry of “Superman” in his watch to get more information.
Then, in an instant, all kinds of news from the Milky Way bounced out.
A few minutes later, after browsing, leader skuru wiped a cold sweat and made a decision.
“Retreat quickly and let those inside the s.h.i.e.l.d. try to escape. Don’t take any risks.”
The rest of the skurus looked confused. As for being so quick and decisive?
Even those who advocate surrender consider shrinking their strength and wait and see for a few days.
It’s a shame to run straight away!
“This planet is terrible! We must retreat. We can’t delay at all!”
When leader skuru remembered the description of Superman’s combat power, he couldn’t help fighting a cold war.
If those are true, then the earth is probably one of the most dangerous places in the Galaxy!
