Chapter 142: The Final Rewards (3k First Update)

Wuxin pointed his gun at Aishili, but his gaze was fixed on Xuanse behind her.

If there was any hidden danger in Tao Baibai's plan, it had to be Xuanse, who was responsible for working with him to slay the sub-bodies of Jiebo.

Because there was no suitable reason to send Xuanse back into that meat-grinder of a battlefield.

When Wuxin heard from Tao Baibai that the other party expected Jiebo to be able to kill Superman, he was shocked beyond words.

But Tao Baibai's explanation left him unable to refute.

Knowing that their side had already gained the trust of Superman and had launched a great purge, why did Jiebo not choose to leave, but instead attempt to win over Plot Characters like Queen Maeve?

The only explanation was that Jiebo possessed some kind of trump card that could turn the tables even with Superman present.

And when combined with the Black Noir Faction that had been missing all along, the answer was clear: Jiebo wanted to assassinate Superman.

In the plot, it was explicitly stated that no modern weapon could kill Superman, so the only things he could rely on were Soldier Boy and the special means of the Reincarnators.

Wuxin had originally thought Tao Baibai would warn Superman, but he did not expect the other party to go a step further and coerce him into making a new plan.

Because the two had already established a Contract, and Wuxin still held the Bloodline Item given to him by Bai Cangshu, he agreed to this plan; furthermore, he faced no risk in this plan.

Aishili also cast a faint look of distress toward Xuanse at this moment, but to her surprise, Xuanse walked a few steps to the monitor, watched the giant fox Monster disappear, and saw Tao Baibai walk out of the ruins clutching Superman's corpse; he was trembling all over.

Although Wuxin trusted Tao Baibai's judgment, he was still incredibly nervous at this moment; he was already clutching the heart of the werewolf in his hand, and if Xuanse made a move, he would immediately use the Bloodline Item.

But to the shocked eyes of Aishili and the others, Xuanse was actually filled with excitement; he waved his right hand silently, celebrating like a madman, and then, ignoring everyone's gaze, turned and disappeared with extreme speed into the Vought International headquarters building.

With no hope left, Aishili and the others finally had to accept reality; before they could even send out a contact, Madelyn Stillwell, who had been missing for a long time, returned to the Vought headquarters with a group of people.

The leader was a black man with an imposing manner, and Madelyn followed a step behind him; the person who arrived was none other than Stan, the true controller of Vought International.

As soon as the group entered the operations department, they ignored Wuxin's gun; Stan sat directly in the department head's chair and spoke.

"Contact the White House and announce that Superman has launched a rebellion and led a massacre; all the trump cards we have hidden, the Asian Superhero, the 【Savior】... uh..."

He suddenly paused, and Madelyn immediately added.

"Mr. Tao Baibai."

Stan nodded and issued orders to Aishili and the others.

"Mr. Tao Baibai has saved Meilijian."

Wuxin finally let out a complete sigh of relief.

Everything was just as Tao Baibai had predicted; the controllers of Vought International did not care at all about the life or death of Superman or the truth of the matter; they only cared about their own interests and power.

Since Superman was already dead, he had no value, but Vought International still had to exist; therefore, the only choice now was to win over the Asian who killed Superman and dump all the problems onto the dead Superman.

This decision was so logical that Stan and Madelyn finalized the plan without a single objection.

The connection was quickly made; the White House had already observed that terrifying black sun, and the catastrophic result had already occurred; the death toll was known to be unacceptable without even needing a count.

But fortunately... the government was still the government, and Superman was dead... the tomorrow of Meilijian was still bright.

——

Bai Cangshu wore a tattered pink robe; although this Silver Plot Equipment had powerful effects, its defensive power was truly average; he walked out of the charred streets with his upper body bare.

The perimeter was already crowded with people.

It was also the first time Bai Cangshu had seen so many humans gathered together with his own eyes.

People of all races gathered on the streets; police and the military used armored vehicles to surround the pitch-black district, fighter jets roared continuously in the sky, and over ten Apache attack helicopters were circling.

Everyone wanted to know what had happened, and everyone vaguely guessed that a terrible disaster had occurred, but they had to wait for confirmation.

They also needed someone to tell them that it was all over, that they were safe...

The media had set up their long lenses and short cannons, and the military's real cannons were aimed directly at the street.

It was under these circumstances that the bare-chested Bai Cangshu walked out of the pitch-black district that had turned into a deathly silence, dragging the aged corpse of Superman.

Click, click...

Camera flashes began to flicker continuously in an instant.

Bai Cangshu put down Superman's corpse, raised his hands, and said to the crowd.

"The super criminal who launched the massacre, Superman, has been executed; you... are safe!"

His voice carried extremely far like a great bell, instantly giving the panicked masses a great sense of security.

The media reporters pushed forward frantically at this moment, but a row of men in black suits inserted themselves from the side, isolating everyone, and a beautiful woman then appeared on the scene.

Neuman, the person who was thought to have been killed by Jiebo occupying her body, appeared at the first opportunity; as a politician with high visibility on the internet who had always opposed Superheroes, Neuman was undoubtedly the most suitable government representative to appear at this time.

As soon as this woman came up, she showed an excited smile; she hugged Bai Cangshu impatiently before saying.

"Thank you, Mr. Tao Baibai, you are the true hero, no... you are simply the Savior of Meilijian..."

Bai Cangshu allowed the other party to hug him, but his hand pressed against her spine; if this woman showed any tendency to use her Superpower, he would kill her.

【You have gained incredible Reputation in the Pan-Order Faction of this world; you have completed the Special Milestone: Savior (Rare and Peerless)】 【Savior (Rare and Peerless): After equipping, you will gain a minimum Friendly-level Reputation in the Order Faction in any world that possesses order, and your Rating will be increased by an additional half-level during settlement.】

Bai Cangshu cooperated with Neuman, showing a flawless smile in front of various lenses; photos of this handsome Asian man quickly appeared in all kinds of media around the world.

Within Meilijian, a series of changes were also taking place.

Neuman took the opportunity to seize huge political capital, and Bai Cangshu thus learned who it was that had hidden Neuman at the critical moment.

Half a day later, Bai Cangshu sat in the CEO's office at the Vought International headquarters, looking at the calm-looking Stan.

The other party was indeed an ambitious leader; not only did he successfully protect his daughter Neuman, but he also keenly sensed Bai Cangshu's intentions and had Neuman cooperate, which on one hand preserved Vought International, and on the other hand, allowed Neuman to take the position of Vice President.

And given the current spread of fear regarding Superhumans, Neuman was very likely to become the first female President of Meilijian in this world.

"You are very smart."

Stan praised Bai Cangshu; he sincerely felt that the Asian man before him was far better than that idiot Superman, only that the other party was a bit too smart.

"You're not bad yourself."

Bai Cangshu leaned back in his chair, very relaxed; his Main Mission completion rate had already reached S-rank, and he could leave at any time; his evaluation of Stan was also sincere.

!

The mission process in this Heipao Shijie had given him quite a few unexpected discoveries; the initiative and changes of the Plot Characters were very much beyond his expectations.

This made Bai Cangshu realize that within the so-called mission Derivative Worlds of the Reincarnation Space, these Plot Characters are by no means rigid NPCs; every Plot Character is also thinking about how to break the situation from their own perspective.

If a Reincarnator is too Arrogance, it is very likely they will be plotted against and killed by Plot Characters in some mission worlds.

Just like Bai Cangshu and Calamity who were plotted against by Butcher in this world.

Stan shifted his gaze; the other party had no flaws, and their thinking was very clear. Dealing with such a person could not be done using the same methods as dealing with Homelander.

"We might as well communicate openly."

"You have brought huge disasters to our country and city, but at the same time, you have also given Vought International an opportunity to make amends."

Tap, tap.

Bai Cangshu directly knocked on the table, interrupting Stan's words.

"Do not say these empty words that both you and I know are false."

"I want the formula for Compound V; once I obtain it, I will disappear from the public eye in a reasonable manner."

Stan shook his head, not hesitating for even a second.

"You and I both know that this condition is impossible. Compound V is the root of Vought International's existence; such a thing can never be handed over to anyone."

Bai Cangshu raised his hand, and golden Qi condensed in an instant. Stan's brows twitched; the other party was much calmer than Homelander, but when they moved to act, it was even more caught-off-guard.

"Or, I could kill you and then negotiate with the next successor of Vought International."

"Furthermore, I could also incidentally reveal the fact that Madam President Neuman herself is an Ability User..."

Listening to the whistling of the air, Stan felt even more disgust for these Ability Users, but on the surface, he still calmly shook his head.

"This technology is not held by the CEO at all; the formula is kept in parts by multiple shareholders, and some of them have long since scattered to all corners of the world."

"Tao Baibai, let's be realistic, your time and mine are both precious, aren't they?"

Whether it was his own life or his daughter's future, although Stan cared, they could not compare to Vought International at all.

Bai Cangshu looked at this black man, feeling somewhat moved; if he killed the other party, would there be a probability of dropping the formula for Compound V?

This kind of medicine that could mass-produce Ability Users almost possessed the potential to change the era.

Obviously, wanting to obtain this kind of item could absolutely not be achieved by just threatening a Plot Character. Given the nature of the Space, the difficulty corresponding to this kind of reward was definitely at the level of several Homelanders' worth of Superpower.

Pfft!

The Dodon Ray pierced through the glass, melting a hole in the tempered glass, and then dissipated into the air in the distance. Bai Cangshu also smiled and dispersed his killing intent, as if the person who had just wanted to kill Stan was not himself.

"Haha, Mr. Stan is truly calm in the face of danger; you indeed have more poise than Madelyn."

"Fine, give me ten doses of Compound V, and additionally, help me find a batch of medicinal herbs..."

"With the financial resources of Vought International, this should not be difficult to accomplish."

After considering for a moment, Stan nodded and agreed to this transaction. He shook Bai Cangshu's hand and revealed a smile.

"Happy to cooperate, Mr. Savior."
