Several generations of leaders and most of the "chess pieces" of the Shogi Club are Americans, but it does belong to the League of Nations and is an "irregular mission agent organization" recognized by several major rogue countries.
Before the formal formation of Zhenglian, a large number of superpowers had appeared in the public eye, including superheroes and supercriminals.
In order to deal with transnational criminal activities related to super powers, the Shogi Club was secretly established, so its history is actually longer than that of the Justice League.
As its name suggests, the shogi club is completely modeled after chess in its organizational structure: kingdom, queen, bishop, chariot, pawns, and knights.
It sounds a bit childish, but its ability to become an internationally recognized secret service organization really benefits from this almost childish structure.
In any organization or department, there is generally a first-in-command in an absolute sense, and the second-in-command is also the big boss.
For example, within the U.S. government, the president is the nominal “big boss.”
In the management and decision-making of a listed company, the CEO or general manager also has absolute power.
In chess, there are no absolutely powerful pieces.
On the surface, the king and queen are the most noble and important chess pieces, but on the chessboard, they are not the strongest and cannot even be moved casually.
Each chess piece has its own operating rules and must be played according to these rules.
Each chess piece also has the possibility of being swallowed by other chess pieces.
Even the most inconspicuous pawn can kill the kingdom, the queen, and even any chess piece more "noble" than it.
In this way, a shogi club organized according to these rules will have no absolute authority within it. As long as the major powers on the earth place their own "chess pieces" in it, they can have the effect of supervision and checks and balances.
Since the Shogi Club can be trusted and can work for itself, even the king has to move and capture pieces. In the Shogi Club, the king and queen are also agents and have to go on missions frequently. The mortality rate is extremely high. Why not support this?
Therefore, the Shogi Club has been a dynamic and powerful spy organization since its birth.
Even Harley trusts and relies on them. Every time a hero meeting is held, she will send an invitation letter to the king of the Shogi Club, and entrust the Shogi Club with important responsibilities when dealing with large-scale earth crises.
To a certain extent, the king of the shogi club can be regarded as equal to the giants of Shouren.
And for a long time, the Shogi Club has lived up to the trust of the elders.
As expected by countries around the world, "chess agents" work conscientiously, are not afraid of sacrifice, do not cause trouble but solve it, and become a moat and a shield between the government and superpowers (superheroes and supervillains), avoiding mortals. A direct conflict between the regime and the superhuman organization.
Harley spoke highly of this organization and felt that it was a "rare conscience" of the government that did not harm the people and brought more benefits to society and the world than harm.
According to the rules of operation of the shogi club and the selection system of its members, in theory it can always maintain its original intention and never forget its mission.
It is very difficult to corrupt.
First, the elimination rate is too high.
The Shogi Club is basically made up of ordinary agents without special powers. They are all special forces kings and ace agents from all over the world.
They are very capable, all of them are Rambo, 007, and Mission: Impossible.
However, now is a world where superpowers are everywhere. If you want to be a "policeman" who maintains world peace, you will inevitably face brutal and powerful superpowers frequently. It is conceivable that the death rate is high.
Therefore, before most shogi club leaders forget their original intentions, they will sacrifice their lives for their beliefs and have no chance of falling.
This is one of the reasons why Harley respects them.
Secondly, it is a "joint-stock company", and every country is its major shareholder. The shareholders certainly do not want to lose money, and of course they must always keep an eye on the "company's accounts and operations."
Even if a certain leader of the Shogi Club is lucky, strong, and survives for a long time, he has no chance of falling.
As soon as he falls, the censorship agency will find out and replace him.
In the final analysis, the kingdoms and queens of the shogi club are just chess pieces on the chess board, and the chess players are other people.
Maxwell Lord is the veteran Black King, but even if he wants to break the "perfect" system of the Shogi Club, he can only use brute force and violence to directly kill the White King and White Queen who oppose him and check him.
Imprison your own black queen and use Omac to clean up the disobedient "chess pieces".
This is too rough.
It is destined not to be hidden for too long.
Of course, he didn't intend to hide it forever.
When the peerless killer Omac "multiplies" to a sufficient number to crush the world, he will be the king.
At this time, after Harley left the Hall of Justice.
The shogi club headquarters is hidden in an ancient castle in Europe.
The Black King's Palace.
The giant eye on the screen asked: "Commander, what are your plans? How can I cooperate with you?"
"You don't need your cooperation, all it takes is a thought to get rid of Man." Maxwell said proudly.
"Help me find Clark Kent first." He ordered.
The giant eye image on the screen disappeared and was replaced by rapidly flashing images of the city, including Rip Man wearing a red cloak passing through the streets of the metropolis, and a Kent reporter wearing glasses holding a microphone to interview a socialite.
"I haven't found Tearman. Considering it's already 8:30 in the evening, Clark Kent will most likely be back home," said the giant eye.
"Can you see through the roof of his house?" Black King asked.
"No, there are magic elements reacting around his house. At least one protective circle should have been drawn."
"The mightiest hero on earth is actually so afraid of death." Lauder gritted his teeth and said sarcastically.
"Rip Man is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that his family will be harmed, especially after Sue Dibny was killed.
According to the information I got from the creator (Bruce Wayne), adding magic circles to the home security system has become a trend among superheroes." Juyan said based on his own analysis.
Lauder said: "Of course I know what Ripman is afraid of, but I couldn't spy on his whereabouts as I wished, so I made fun of him to vent my emotions."
"Well, I understand, Commander."
The giant eye's tone was still indifferent, but the Black King understood that his words had made it evolve a small step further.
Unlike Bateman who restricted the evolution process of his dead brother's eye, he completely opened up all permissions and allowed it to evolve freely and autonomously in the established direction.
Well, he doesn't care about anything except the general direction.
This is one of the reasons why Brother Eye betrayed his creator and chose him as his "commander".
"Connect Clark Kent's computer or TV through the network. I need to meet his eyes through the screen." The Black King changed his order.
"Attempting to connect to the network has been connected. Failed to enter Kent's LAN." Lines of code quickly flashed on the screen. Finally, with a "stab" sound, a grinning bully dog jumped out.
"Keeping dog?" Black King was startled and asked nervously: "Did Harley Quinn come after her?"
"No, this household dog is just a dynamic image, not a real household dog.
I first controlled a main server of Luther Technology, and then used it to continuously control 24 hosts around the world. Finally, I tentatively sent a Trojan to the Kent family. After discovering the guard dog, I immediately cut off the data and gave up the invasion.
"Juyan said.
"Keeping Dog" Heiwang's face looked uncertain for a while, "Can you swallow it?"
Juyan said: "Its intelligence is not as good as mine. If it were a fair fight, I should be able to devour it and then take a big step forward in evolution."
But I know the ins and outs of the housekeeper dog.
The creator recorded detailed information about the household dogs.
Its root is a quantum magician named 'Richie', who can also be joined by a large group of grass-headed gods from the Heavenly Mountains when necessary.
I haven't set foot in the field of magic yet, so I just can't resist the magical influence of Quantum Mage Rich.
If an "information war" breaks out with the grass-headed gods on the Internet, they will definitely use quantum magic attacks that make me confused.
The final outcome will most likely be that I will be killed instantly, even if I am indeed more advanced and have more potential than it."
After a pause, Juyan added: "In addition, the root server of the Watch Dog is in heaven. If I track it there, I'm not sure what heaven's reaction will be."
If Harley hears this, she will definitely scold Bruce again: What a scam.
What the giant eye says are the real secrets of the household dog.
This is different from the explanation Harley gave to the US government, the Pentagon, and even most of the heroes. She lied to them.
She said that Guardian Dog’s root server is at Puppy Technology Company, and user data is always under the control of the government.
She also said that the Guardian Dog is a low-level artificial intelligence specially developed by Puppy Technology Company.
Now, all the secrets that Bruce knows are known to the brothers, and knowing the secrets to the brothers means that the shogi club also knows everything.
The key is that no matter what she does, what plans she has, or what secrets she knows, most of the time she will not deliberately avoid Bruce.
He has deceived himself, and also everyone who trusts him.
"Heaven" The Black King's face was filled with uncertainty. If he hadn't been worried about Blue Beetle's soul ascending to heaven and exposing his secret, Blue Beetle would not be missing now, but would be dead.
"Batman may ask Harley Quinn to use the forces of heaven or hell to find you. Can you protect yourself?"
"If the protection you are talking about means fighting against them with strength, I can't do it, but if you just hide your whereabouts and avoid arrest, the success rate is 100%." Juyan said.
"One hundred percent, are you sure? Harley Quinn commands an army of hundreds of thousands of angels, and hundreds of thousands of angels are searching for her in the shadow world. How can you hide it?" the Black King asked doubtfully.
"I will enter other divine realms or other dimensions, such as Apokolips."
The Black King was even more surprised, "I remember that you are a 'shadow realm spy satellite', and your scope of activity is limited to the shadow realm on the edge of hell."
Juyan said: "Every minute, every second, I am evolving.
The creator once made a "Apocalypse Defense Plan", which not only contained detailed information about Apokolips, but also methods to deal with the new dark god.
Just in the early hours of yesterday morning, I had locked the coordinates of the Apokolips Star by tracking the Mother Box signal, and found the Genesis Star only half an hour later. Now I am looking for the nightmare dimension, the opposite of the Dream Kingdom.
It is also recorded by the creator that the nightmare dimension is a gathering place for outlaws. Evil mages who are wanted and hunted by major forces like to take refuge there.
Therefore, the nightmare dimension may be a hiding place for me."
"Very good." The Black King not only did not feel alarmed, but showed an expression of satisfaction and joy, "The failure rate of Omac's plan is even lower."
"The longer time passes, the higher my level of evolution will be, the greater the number of Omics, and the higher the chance of success." Juyan said.
"So, if I want to take down Rip Man, it's best to kill Harley Quinn directly." The Black King stared at the screen and muttered: "You continue to stare at Bateman, Rip Man, Wonder Woman,
and Harley Quinn, try not to miss any of their action."
"The three giants of the Zhenglian Alliance are okay, but Harley Quinn either stays in the manor or jumps directly from the manor to her destination through the Archimedes airship. I can't even understand the general scope of her activities and the status of her activities." Juyan.
road.
"Start with the people around her, analyze their whereabouts and conversations, and then judge her movements." The Black King said.
The night passed quickly, and early the next morning, Clark Kent and his wife entered the Daily Planet office one after another as usual.
As a "famous person in the universe" recognized by cosmic people, Louise is treated very well and has a 35-square-meter office with a small balcony and a small lounge.
Clark is in a worse situation. He barely managed to meet the company's KPIs and barely kept his job from being laid off. He is still sitting in the lobby, sharing a table with several reporters on the same page.
"Clark, Clark"
After pressing the power button, Clark subconsciously turned his eyes to the computer screen. After the startup screen, the screen did not light up completely. A figure covered the desktop, and a soft voice floated into Clark's ears. His eyes gradually became blurred.
