Chapter 364 Rose’S Choice
Chapter 364 Rose’S Choice
"This is Washington News, and I'm interrupting with an urgent message. I regret to inform you that...
The great Mr. President, Slade Wilson, passed away unfortunately two hours ago. There is evidence that this was a horrific murder! The murderer was none other than the familiar Superman - Speedmaster!"
Ten minutes after Wilson was assassinated, the emergency doctor declared that he was physiologically dead and there was no need to continue resuscitating him.
Rose instantly felt that the sky was falling. She could not accept this fact!
Waller rushed to the White House as soon as the incident occurred. She repeatedly confirmed that Wilson was really hopeless, and immediately awoke Rose from her grief.
"Rose, now is not the time to be sad. You have nothing more important to do!"
Waller directed his men to put away the bloody knife, and then continued to Ross: "The top priority now is how to use this matter to prepare for your next steps."
Rose's brain was a little confused now. She didn't understand what Waller meant for a moment. How to use this matter? What to use it?
After a few seconds, she raised her head suddenly and looked at Waller in disbelief.
"Don't look at me like that. If something happened to you tonight, I would advise Mr. Wilson the same way." Waller said calmly.
"He just died!" Ross shouted.
Waller's intention was to use the president's death to build momentum for Ross's ascension. In other words, she wanted to use Wilson's death to create political hype!
In Rose's eyes, such behavior was tantamount to insulting her father, not to mention that Waller's move also implied that Rose was involved.
This is obviously unacceptable to Ross, who is less than thirty years old.
But Waller doesn't think so.
In normal times, it would be impossible for someone like Rose to become president, not only because of her age, but also because of her gender.
But things are different now. As long as they do it properly, they can completely make Wilson a hero, and Rose's identity is not just a presidential candidate, she is also a hero queen!
As long as what happened this time is slightly processed, Ross will definitely gain sympathy from people all over the country and even the world, and maybe he will actually succeed and become the next president.
To put it simply, Waller hopes to put a layer of buff on Rose. It is best to let her give a public speech to absorb all the halo that originally gathered on Wilson.
After all, she is the only daughter of the late president, so the probability of success of this plan is very high!
Waller already knew before coming here that the Vice President was also working in the White House at the time.
But he was unlucky. When Speedmaster cut off the power here, he was killed by Speedmaster because he was directly above the underground cable.
This makes it impossible for him to directly become the interim president like Truman. At this time, Ross, who is also a candidate, has a chance.
After all, in the previous voting, Ross's votes were far higher than those of other competitors, so as long as he can make use of today's events, Ross does have a glimmer of hope to take advantage of people's high attention to this matter to gain more support and eventually become the The new president.
But Rose couldn't accept this. What was even more chilling than eating steamed buns with human blood was eating steamed buns with human blood from relatives. Rose's father had just died, and she actually wanted to use this matter to sensationalize it. If she really did this, she wouldn't even know it. You will look down on yourself.
"But the interests of the United States are above all else, even above the feelings between you and your father!" Waller snapped.
If it were Waller who encountered this kind of thing, she would definitely do it without saying a word, because she knew that only by doing this could the loss be minimized, and they might even turn this bad thing into a good thing. .
"Do you want your father's sacrifice to be in vain? He worked hard to create this situation. If this matter is not calmed down, the fear of the Syndicate will rekindle in the hearts of the people."
"Then why do you want me to take advantage of this matter? Wouldn't it be enough to truthfully announce the process of the matter?"
Waller once again felt Rose's innocence, but it didn't matter. Even if she was immature now, when she really sat in that position, she would grow up at a speed that no one could imagine.
Amanda Waller believes she can't see the wrong person.
So she asked a crucial question: "If the next president is not you, will you still be responsible for the relationship between the Justice League?"
The question stumped Ross.
Once the emperor has one courtier, this is a rule that applies to all countries.
Once the new president takes office, they will definitely not use Ross or Waller again. Waller may be better off. She only needs to change the lintel to continue to be reused. She just needs to go through the path of career promotion again.
But Rose will definitely leave the center of power and everything related to the Superman class. The new president will not allow her to continue to have access to these.
Unless the Justice League specifically requests it, they are designated to contact Ross, but is this possible?
The relationship between her and Zheng Lian has been somewhat awkward recently, and when she needs to do everything possible to ease it, Zheng Lian will never speak for her.
So if the president falls to someone else, Ross will definitely be kicked out of the organization.
Is Rose relieved? Is she relieved to leave everything she and her father have worked so hard to in other hands?
She suddenly thought of two other competitors, a big capitalist, and an interest spokesperson supported by big capital. "No," she must not leave the country to these two people!
Waller breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't speak anymore and her mood had calmed down.
As long as Ross is willing to cooperate, this thing can be done.
As a direct descendant of Wilson's faction, Waller didn't want them to collapse so quickly. She had thought about all this on the way here.
It would be fine if Ross could rationally accept her opinion, but if not, Waller would have to find a way to find another home.
After a lot of internal fighting between heaven and man, Ross finally could only agree with Waller's suggestion.
For the sake of the United States and the future she and her father envisioned, she was willing to sell her soul to the devil.
Waller had already been prepared, and Ross nodded. She immediately called in people from Washington News, took photos of the scene, and conducted a brief interview with Ross.
The most important thing is the surveillance in Wilson's office. It has an independent battery, so it can still work normally after the entire White House is cut off.
These surveillance cameras completely captured all the facts, and they are also the material that Washington News wants this time.
After two hours of emergency editing, they finally released the news to all online media as quickly as possible and requested it to be inserted into all TV programs.
And this news had just been released and it shocked the whole country!
This is the most horrifying assassination incident after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and judging from the surveillance released on TV news, the person who assassinated the president this time was none other than Speedmaster, who was rumored to have escaped from prison some time ago!
But no one can blame Wilson for this. The surveillance video not only captured the scene of Speedmaster assassinating the president, but also captured President Wilson's heroic counterattack before that. He successfully stabbed Speedmaster and injured him. .
Speedmaster can be hurt!
The discovery of this fact may be more important than the assassination of the president originally. It proves that Super Speed is not invincible, and even mortals can hurt him.
"I will inherit my father's legacy and continue to fight against the Syndicate to the end! I will not be scared by any form of threat! Even if the Speedmaster appears in front of me now.
In front of the TV screen, Ross said with determination.
The public sympathizes with this girl who has just lost her father, and also appreciates her courage to fight against the superpower under the current circumstances. Perhaps after Wilson's death, his daughter can take over his banner and continue to fight against the superpower that threatens all mankind. Criminals fight.
So those sympathizers voted for her.
Not only the votes in the hands of passers-by, but those voters who originally chose Wilson changed their positions and voted for Ross.
As for other competitors, the gap between their votes and Rose was already huge, and now it has become even wider.
The "King of Understanding" was furious. He made wild remarks on his Facebook and claimed that Rose was consuming her recently deceased father. His remarks aroused attacks from countless netizens.
What he said may be true, but it is not what the people want to hear now.
As for the "Sleeping King", he acted very indifferent to the matter. He just politely said "I'm sorry" in front of the media's cameras and continued to travel around the country to give speeches for his campaign.
The actions of these two people are simply assisting, and Ross's approval rate is showing an exponential trend since he took office.
Devil Island, on this isolated island, outside information cannot penetrate the barrier set up by Dane.
A week after Sinestro left the earth, he finally unlocked the secret of the demon's spell and found a way to rewrite the "code".
"Are you going to go to hell now? Why don't you find something to test first?" Zatanna arranged the things needed for the secret ritual in an open space.
"No need, I believe in the results of our efforts...and I'm worried that Seku...may not even be allowed to be experimental subjects...
Zatanna is speechless, she wants to say that as long as you don't spoil her, she can't do anything to you.
If Dane knew what she was thinking, he would definitely say that there was nothing he could do about "Eva Green".
"Before that, I have to get something first..."
Dane said as he walked into Hephaestus' palace.
"Please tell me that the smelting of the vicious metal has been completed."
Hephaestus turned around, his huge body was extremely oppressive, but Dane regarded him as normal.
The other party pointed his finger into the furnace and said: "It is inside. According to your request, I did not forge it into a fixed form."
Dane jumped onto the furnace. It was so huge that even when Dane was standing on the edge, it felt as wide as if he were standing on the shore.
In the furnace, Dane saw a ball of golden liquid swimming in the flames, like a living thing.
Dane stretched out his hands, and lightning seeped out from the pores on his arms, turning into a thunder snake and flying out, directly biting the moving golden light.
Attracted by the divine power, the golden liquid flew out of the furnace along the Razer and finally came to Dane's hands, carrying the high temperature in the furnace and climbing up his arms.
This is the liquid metal state in which N metal is in a molten state.
Dane's divine body is not afraid of high temperatures, so the hot molten metal is like warm water on his hands and does not cause him any pain.
Zanza's power has the super ability to control metal magnets, so the N metal liquid can be shaped into any shape in his hands.
But the reason why this piece of N metal is in a liquid state is not because the temperature is high enough to reach the melting point, but because it was given the ability to become liquid at the beginning of its design.
In Dane's design, N metal is given the ability to move between different material forms.
Ability to transform.
It can assume the solid state that metal should have in daily life. In this form, it is extremely strong and almost indestructible, and N metal in this form has the same equipment as Hawkman.
Same Ability.
It can make people who cannot fly fly, shield mental attacks from the outside world, enhance their own strength, speed, and agility, and when they use magic,
Can increase the power of magic.
This piece of N metal can also be converted into a liquid state. In the liquid state, it still has the magical properties of the solid state, and also has the properties of water. In this form, the N metal
Can penetrate into places where only water molecules can penetrate.
And because the liquid state is extremely fluid, this means that this piece of N metal can be transformed into any weapon form, and all eighteen kinds of weapons can be transformed.
Not only that, as long as the owner of N metal has enough knowledge, it can even be turned into a thermal weapon, an energy projector [or even a spaceship.
N metal can further change into a gaseous state. In this state, it can even enter the pores of living things and penetrate into the human body like nanoparticles.
Dane can use the N metal in this state to strengthen himself or strengthen the bodies of others. Ability, definitely, depending on how it is used, this Ability can even be used against
Control on a physical level by others.
Let the other person's body act according to Dane's will, and the best thing is, this kind of control can be more diversified.
Because N metal originally has powerful magic ability, it can be used for magic control. It is a good idea to use it to strengthen spiritual magic.
Its particles are at the atomic level, smaller than the nanotechnology particles used by the Justice League, so it can enter the human body chemically and assemble itself in the target body.
It can be turned into a nanorobot, and you can use it completely as nanotechnology.
And according to the atomic File size of N metal, it can directly participate in the physiological activities of the human body, which means that it can even directly impersonate the circulatory system in the other party's body, replacing the opponent's body.
It controls the target's biological activities through biochemical reactions.
For example, it can follow oxygen molecules into the human brain and control the other party's thoughts by participating in brain chemical activities.
Definitely, the last method is more complex, but therefore more secretive.
In addition to these common functions, N metal can also store souls, just like Nabu stored his soul in a golden helmet.
The original atomic motion of N metal also constantly absorbs vacuum zero-point energy from the surrounding void. Under certain conditions, it can be released.
At that time, N metal can even assume a plasma state, or a higher level of energy form.
In short, N metal is very versatile. It can participate in almost any ability you can think of. It can be said that wearing this thing, Dane is equivalent to having
A self-sufficient arsenal that can produce anything you want.
Dane is very satisfied with it. The only thing he has to do now is to turn it into something that only he can use. According to the Eastern saying, it is to let it "recognize its owner".
Soul binding is the safest method, but this method requires cutting off part of one's soul, which is not cost-effective. The soul should be kept intact as much as possible.
Just straighten it out.
Therefore, Dane chose to use his own divine power to infect this piece of N metal. .
