Marvel World New Magneto

After clearing his mind, John finally returned to normal. Eric gave him a long vacation. During this period, he did not have to participate in training. When the students were in class, he could walk around or find his little girlfriend. Relax as much as you want, no one will restrain him.Of course, John didn't relax too much because of the instructor's request. Although he temporarily put down his training, the results of hard work some time ago gradually appeared. According to the feelings of his friends, he has made great progress again.

John's matter was settled, and new news came a few days later. It was rumored that Tony Stark, the boss of Stark Industries, was attacked by the Ten Rings gangsters when he went to the war zone to demonstrate the Jericho missile for the military. This news It immediately attracted the media, and they made a big splash. Affected by this negative news, the military sector suffered a collective setback. Among them, Osborne Industry became the hardest hit area and was sold off by the market. The stock price plummeted, and soon reached the level of Eric and Harry. They had already prepared for the pre-booked price and quietly completed the absorption in a panic.

Now their plans are finally coming to fruition.According to relevant regulations, when a public company has less than [-] registered equity securities holders, or is delisted from a national stock exchange, the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) will consider the company to be privatized.In this way, Osborne's management will no longer be subject to public scrutiny, which can reduce the company's disclosure of sensitive information that can be used by competitors. At the same time, under Eric's guidance, it can be based on long-term goals rather than short-term fulfillment of market expectations.To put it simply, it will not only be a cash cow, but also a propeller to develop the mutant business.

As for its long-term plan, only Harry knows for the time being, and he is preparing quietly.Intended to be a blockbuster in the near future.

Not many people pay attention to this matter, because it has been sunk for too long.If it hadn't been for the mutants involved, Osborn Industries might have been ignored long ago, and now it just hits a wave on the water and continues to sink.

Of course, not everyone can ignore it. For example, the reporter who first gave this news is very interested in continuing to dig.

"Mr. Eddie, do you want to follow me every day and wait for the news to fall from the sky?" Eric asked the reporter. Since he found a turning point with the teachers and students of the academy, he has regarded mutants as the biggest rely.Now Eddie is working harder than the other lady reporter, haunting Eric all day long, but Eric wants to whet his appetite, and after many hardships about Osborne Industries, he gives him Exact message.

But the more this happened, the more Eddie felt that the opportunity was precious and he should not let it go easily. Perhaps this was Eric's original intention.He wanted a reporter who followed in his footsteps.

"I heard something just now, maybe you need to know." Eddie argued.

"What?" Eric asked casually.

"Johnny the Human Torch claims that he is not afraid of you, and he is willing to challenge you publicly." Eddie threw out a news, and Eric raised his eyebrows.

Ever since the Fantastic Four were publicly blamed for Doom's escape, they languished for a while, then exploded as if to atone for their sins, becoming the city's scavengers.Criminals from all walks of life fell under their hands.With their righteous deeds.Their prestige rose all the way, and they finally regained their confidence.Johnny, who failed to catch up with Doom twice, felt that being underestimated was the most unacceptable. He was defeated by Eric last time. He took it as a shameful lesson and always wanted to get revenge. When he heard When a reporter compared himself with mutants, he immediately uttered wild words.

"Mutants? I don't think we are any worse than them. It was just a small accident last time. I'm not afraid of anyone. If you want to ask me what I think, I can only tell you that I hope to see Eric again. than once."

After hearing his words, the reporter felt like a treasure and sent them to Eric as a letter of challenge. Eric knew what they thought, but he was noncommittal and left these enthusiastic people aside.

"Do you think Johnny is not worthy to be your opponent?" Eddie asked habitually out of a reporter's instinct, and then John appeared in front of him.

"Johnny is mine." Pyro said lightly, a sharp edge appeared on his young face.

That confrontation was a shame to Johnny, and even more so to John. He had never met anyone with similar abilities to himself before, perhaps because of the same-sex repulsion, he and Johnny had a relationship from the beginning. The feeling of sparks hitting the earth, having experienced failure, under the guidance of his mentor, he finally found the way to break through, defeating the virtual Johnny and Ben in the tactical simulation room.Now that he is strong enough, he is unwilling to continue living with shame. Since Johnny wants to challenge his mentor, he will take this opportunity to defeat him in reality, and wash away the shame from now on.John's thinking is very simple, but also very firm.

Seeing him like this, Eric nodded.

Soon a message spread through Eddie that the mutant student Pyro John was willing to accept Johnny's challenge instead of his mentor.

Burning John...who is that?

Fortunately, the media found the original video. From the above, they saw John being beaten to the left and right by Johnny. They had no hope at all. However, in order to facilitate the battle between the two superhero groups, the reporters still heated up the atmosphere. , until the day the competition started.

Columbia University is located at the junction of the Black District and the Hispanic Harlem District. It is the birthplace of the "Beat Generation" literary movement in the mid-[-]th century. It is surrounded by many well-known New York-style jazz bars, performance centers, coffee shops, etc. Where to go for nightlife.On campus, large lawns, small restaurants, convenient shopping malls, sports centers and other places are places for students to rest after class.Various student associations will also organize various leisure and social activities, but on this day, the most eye-catching thing is nothing else, but the match between Pyroman and Human Torch. The battle will be held on a rugby field to avoid hurting the audience. In the eyes of many, this confrontation may be just a preview, and the two hero teams will compete in full swing in the future.

Half an hour before the start, the audience had already entered the arena. Eric led the students all the way to the stage, and kept saying hello to people he knew.

"Congratulations, you have successfully controlled Osborne." A bald man stood up and said with a smile. This is Obaday Stan, the chief executive of Stark Industries. Although the major shareholder is missing, he does not seem to be affected by it. Affect, on the contrary feel good.

Opadry is also the behind-the-scenes owner of Exploration Aerospace, and has always had a hostile relationship with Osborne Industries. During the Norman era, there was a relaxation of cooperation, and the three parties once reached an agreement, but when the limelight passed, he became indifferent. , now he appeared in front of Eric looking very high-spirited, it seems that he finally moved the top stone.

"Congratulations to you too, Obaday." Eric blinked and shook his hand.Now that things are done, there will always be various clues, and it is not surprising to be discovered. Anyway, the dust has already settled, and it does not matter whether it is confrontation or cooperation in the future.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Obaday laughed, and now he doesn't have to suppress himself anymore. "Are you interested in cooperating? I am still quite interested in some of Osborn's technologies."

"Let's wait until Tony's news is confirmed." Eric looked into the distance, and a blond white woman was staring at her side. That was Tony Stark's secretary, Miss Potts, with whom Eric once had a relationship. After meeting for a while, seeing Eric watching over, she hurriedly said hello, with an anxious look in her eyes. "I think someone would do anything to be sure of his news."

"The premise is that she can get timely authorization." Obaday also found Potts and said dismissively.

The students don't understand the world of adults, they are concerned about John.

"Johnny is very strong, and now he is even stronger. I am worried that John will not be able to bear it if he fails." Bobby always thought that John's hard training some time ago was for Johnny. In his opinion, John was too impatient.

"Hope no one gets hurt." Pete knew John very well, but he also liked Johnny, so he remained neutral in this confrontation.

"I think John will win." Alison is full of confidence in her old classmates. She saw with her own eyes how John trained hard, and also saw him defeat Human Torch and Golem in the tactical room, although the avatar and himself There is a certain gap in strength between them, and she is still optimistic that the classmates will win.

On the other side of the auditorium, a small commotion continued for a while as three of the Fantastic Four appeared, the blonde Susan the most popular, followed by Ben, who was awkward in appearance but not without it Reed was affected by what happened some time ago and fell from second to third, but now that his reputation has recovered, many people still cheer for him, which makes him quite touched.

Then, amidst all the uproar, Johnny came down from the sky with a blaze of fire.

Now it's just waiting for John.

In the cramped locker room of the visiting team, a girl groped to help John straighten his uniform, then rubbed his hair: "Are you afraid of him, John?"

"No." John shook his head. "I'm more afraid of disappointing my boss than failing, and I...don't want to fail again."

"Then face the battle bravely." The girl smiled and punched him. "I'll wait for your good news."

"Yeah." John put his head against the girl's forehead, and the two touched, then he stood up and walked out of the dressing room.

Hearing the sound of her boyfriend's footsteps fading away, the girl clenched her fists and prayed softly. The light fell from above, reflecting the paleness in her eyes. (to be continued~^~)
