Chapter 2740

Jameson just walked out of the room.

Obviously, he and Mysterio parted on bad terms.

About half an hour ago, he came here as agreed. As soon as he walked into the room, he saw Mysterio wearing a helmet.

Jameson had seen too many masked heroes, so he didn't care that the other party didn't show his true face. He only cared about what kind of information the other party would reveal to him, and whether this information could match some of his guesses.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Mysterio, if there is no problem, let's start now."

Jameson first asked some common questions as usual, such as where you come from, what kind of abilities you have, what dangerous events you have handled before, what kind of person you think you are, etc.

Mysterio answered in a mess.

If Jameson had to use one word to evaluate this newly appeared superhero, it would be "hypocritical".

Mysterio was obviously not sincere enough. As an experienced media person, Jameson could very accurately feel that he was hiding something, and it was not the kind of clever concealment, but full of lies.

It seems he really has a problem. Jameson confirmed this. He knew too well how to deal with such a lying guy. After the daily questions were asked, Jameson began to show his aggressiveness step by step.

He didn't ask about the space station at first, but followed the origin Mysterio said, that is, his so-called elemental power, and asked down. It was probably asking when Mysterio got the power, how many kinds of power he got, and how he usually exercises this power.

Through these questions, Jameson was more certain that this guy was not only a hypocritical liar, but also a stupid arrogant person.

He said that he had not experienced any training at all. His strength was completely innate, and he also said that this power had no weaknesses, neither energy upper limit, nor output port was infinite. As long as he wanted, he could do everything.

The first knife was held in Jameson's hand. He asked: "Then what is the thing you want to do most?"

Mysterio of course answered like this, "I want to benefit the Earth, make people better, and end war, poverty and chaos forever."

Sounds like no problem, right? Jameson thought mockingly in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that he had contacted other superheroes through Spider-Man before, he would almost believe it.

Is there such a powerful force in this world?

The answer is yes, at least Jameson had personally contacted one, and this person is called Scarlet Witch Wanda.

It was when filming a superhero documentary. The documentary needed some publicity, so they invited some reporters and these superheroes to face each other. Because they needed to contact a large number of ordinary people at once, they chose some superheroes with better tempers and more approachable, and Wanda was one of them.

Some people might feel that Wanda is actually a bit irritable, but in fact that is only when facing her sister and her father. She is considered the most normal social ability in this family of Lensherr, and can even earn rent for herself by working in ordinary society.

Wanda is full of patience for ordinary people, and she seems to have the ability to see through the essence of human beings. She saw that Jameson and Spider-Man seemed to have some tacit understanding, so she answered Jameson a few extra questions.

Jameson was of course most curious about this mutant lady's ability, and when he learned that Wanda was almost omnipotent, he also wanted to know what Wanda would most want to do with this ability.

The answer is to create the world.

That's right, Wanda wanted to create a brand new world. This world had no chaos and poverty from the essence. Human beings had never experienced these, and everyone living on Earth, from the moment they were born, had always been happy and beautiful.

Then Jameson understood that in the eyes of these real super-powered people, the current world is too broken. They don't want to mend it on this basis at all. They hope and have the ability to shape a world that has never had disasters, not just simply save the current one.

They are not trying to save the world, they directly treat themselves as gods.

This is unexpected, but unexpectedly reasonable, because thinking about it, the way these creatures with such strong abilities have recognized this world for a long time is different from ordinary people. What ordinary people dare not think, they dare to think, what ordinary people cannot do, they can do, so they can naturally have a kind of god's perspective.

There is no doubt that Jameson saw a kind of compassionate divinity in Wanda, and he also saw the same temperament in Professor X, and even in Magneto.

The word compassion seems to never be associated with that serious German man, but the fact is that they all possess the same temperament, completely detached from the secular, abstract, and even slightly vain and empty. All this is because they are too strong.

There is no such temperament in Mysterio at all, and his perspective on problems is not what a god among humans should have. Perhaps some powerful super-powered people will return to the basics like Clark, but Mysterio obviously does not have the openness of having seen all the sails.

Jameson basically confirmed his guess. This Mysterio is a fake.

Jameson believes that someone else saved the space station, and he can temporarily call this person "Mysterio", but it is not the clown wearing a helmet in front of him.

Confirmed his guess, Jameson no longer showed mercy. He began to ask about the details of Mysterio saving the space station, such as when he found that the elemental power was wrong, how he determined the location where the elemental creatures ran out, how he defeated the first monster, and how he dismantled the bomb and left with the bomb.

Jameson's inquiry method is very similar to the forms Schiller gave Beck to fill out. But the difference is that Schiller's means are relatively gentle, but Jameson can be said to be aggressive, not giving Mysterio half a reaction time.

The result is of course that Mysterio answered in a mess.

Jameson is not a professional agent, but at least he is an old reporter, and he can open a newspaper in New York and continue to make profits until today. Dealing with dangerous people may not work, but dealing with ordinary people is one catch at a time.

Mysterio happens not to be a dangerous person, and he is even worse than ordinary people. He is now an ordinary person with a bad mental state.

Since he was injured, he has not rested well. During the days he lived with Schiller, not only did he have to fill out the endless questionnaires, deal with the annoying psychologist, but Schiller also often caused various accidents, causing him to be unable to rest well.

It was not easy to leave that place, but he was arrested and had to find evidence for himself during the bail period. The huge pressure made him almost crazy.

The double torture of body and mind led him to the verge of collapse. The current Mysterio is already a bit confused.

In the second half of the interview, Mysterio basically said whatever he had, completely unconstrained. He was confused, but Jameson was not confused. Those questions of his seemed to have no reason, no complete internal logic, but just disrupted the rhythm of Mysterio's already few replies. This time, he was completely incoherent.

Having obtained what he wanted, Jameson didn't want to stay long, but although Mysterio's brain was not very good, he still had vigilance, or the huge pressure forced him to be cautious. He wanted to see Jameson's notes.

Jameson wouldn't let him see. To put it bluntly, he had interviewed so many big figures, and none of them wanted to see his records. Even the most unreasonable politicians didn't dare to say so. This is interfering with public opinion justice.

However, this person in front of him looks very dangerous and may have lost his mind. Jameson obviously also has the wisdom of self-preservation, so he handed the notebook in his hand over. It basically recorded truthfully, and also carried out some beautification, and successfully fooled Mysterio.

But Mysterio didn't know that Jameson didn't need to use a pen to record at all. He had been a reporter for most of his life. He remembered every sentence he asked and every sentence the other party answered clearly.

Jameson kept summarizing the harvest of today in his heart. He found more and more loopholes from Mysterio's mouth. Just these contradictory statements are enough to expose this damn liar.

Jameson walked out of the hotel where they met, and Mysterio followed closely. At this time, he was slightly awake and felt that it was necessary to say some good words to the reporter, let the other party speak well for himself, and more importantly, emphasize his strength and kindness to help himself stand firm in the public opinion field.

The two went out of the hotel one after another, but just at this time, Jameson saw a reflection on the building opposite. He turned his head and looked, a huge mechanical spider was lying on the roof of the building opposite, looking like it occupied at least 10 stories high.

Jameson widened his eyes, stepped back a few steps in horror. He immediately thought of the live broadcast, the mechanical spider monster that blocked Mysterio at that time.

But isn't it said that the artificial intelligence crisis has been lifted?! What's going on now?!

But Mysterio behind him was very excited. In his opinion, this is Stark's another trick. The two emoji monsters he made before failed to cause effective damage to him, so he specially brought out their most advanced technology now, wanting to suppress and threaten him.

Mysterio snorted coldly. He thought, this is really sleepy and coming to the pillow. He was worried that there was no opportunity to show his powerful strength. This monster shouldn't turn into an emoji again, right?

Facts proved that this time not, and the monster's shape was particularly ferocious this time. The crawling action was like a real spider, scaring the people on the road to flee in a hurry, and Jameson raised his camera.

Although the mechanical spider was huge, its movements were very fast. Almost in a flash, it rushed in front of Mysterio. Mysterio flew up. Just as he was about to manipulate the drone, he was stunned.

The drone signal was interrupted.

Mysterio looked at his arm in disbelief. There was a screen that only he could see. All the small red dots that were lit up turned gray, which meant his drone was out of control.

"This is impossible!" Mysterio roared. He endured the incomparable panic and activated the headset, whispering to the other side: "Sophia! Sophia! What's wrong with my drone?!"

There was no answer from Sophia's side.

"Damn it! Answer me quickly, why does my drone have no signal?! Answer me quickly!!"

"Who are you?" A strange male voice came from the opposite side. There seemed to be some chaos there, and all kinds of sounds kept coming, and there seemed to be Sophia's shouting.

Mysterio was completely panicked.

"Who are you? What did you do to Sophia?!"

"I am an FBI agent. Sophia Adra is now arrested for being involved in a cross-border money laundering case. Now she needs to go to the designated place to cooperate with the investigation. No matter who you are, we will find you."

Mysterio's face was ashen.
