Lex Luthor was shot through the neck with an arrow.
The bright red blood soaked into his pure white suit, which looked extremely terrifying. He was somewhat frightened, and he took three steps back and fell onto a chair.
Everything happened so suddenly that his beautiful Asian secretary and bodyguard codenamed "Mercy" took a full second to react.
She rushed forward, blocking the outward direction with her body, took out a handkerchief and pressed Lex's neck with one hand, while issuing an emergency call from the other side.
For a time, Lex's villa was in a state of chaos.
Two hours later, a certain military hospital.
Lex Luthor was lying peacefully on the hospital bed, with almost no trace of blood on his originally fair face.
Looking at his female secretary [Mercy], Lex's pale lips opened: "Tell me, I can accept no matter how bad the news is."
[Mercy] brushed her bangs. She also looked bad. This time she obviously failed in her duty.
"This attack is completely unreasonable. Your home is made of 44mm five-layer bulletproof glass. Not to mention a 7.62mm caliber sniper rifle, it can even withstand long-distance snipers from the Barrett M95 anti-material rifle."
"But his bulletproof glass was shot out!"
[Mercy] stopped talking and showed pictures of the scene on her laptop.
Yes! That’s the kind of glass that was blown up by an arrow.
A hole the size of a small apple appeared in the glass.
"We slowed down the surveillance video to the extreme, and only in the last frame could we barely see what should be an arrow-shaped object, and the damage it caused was extremely strange. Only your neck, Mr. Luther, was scratched, and even the aorta was not injured.
.Afterwards, we could not find the warhead or any debris at the scene."
After a long silence, Lex screamed: "Do you want to say that I was sneak-attacked by an extraordinary person with an arrow?"
"Not sure, it could be something similar to a shotgun flechette."
When Lex got excited, the stitched wound on his neck started to ooze blood.
At this time, what was playing on the TV in the ward was a speech by a female congresswoman named Finch. She was making an impassioned speech, declaring that she wanted Superman, so much so that all the extraordinary heroes who participated in the Battle of New York came out to be interrogated.
ask).
It is true that President Ellis passed the "Extraordinary Rating Interim Act", but passing the bill does not mean that all opposition voices have been eliminated.
As we all know, the bill itself is quite fragile. When an evil extraordinary person does something that seriously hurts people's feelings, the bill can be repealed at any time.
The bill itself is only valid for two years. Now that more than half a year has passed, it is almost time to discuss whether to renew or abolish it.
Lex never forgets the bad things he did.
A few days ago, in a certain desert, he set up a trap and created a massacre that seemed to be caused by Superman.
This incident caused an uproar across the United States.
Just last night, he and Congressman Finch hit it off, launching a public outcry whose main target was Superman, but in reality was to denounce extraordinary beings.
In fact, the statement is somewhat similar to the point of view of Nick, the original director of SHIELD - we cannot rely on the kindness and morality of monsters that are beyond mortals. We must have the ability to kill Superman and even all the gods on this blue star.
So when he showed Senator Finch a piece of kryptonite, showing how it weakened the cells in General Zod's body, they hatched a plan.
Of course, the congressman's idea is more brilliant, which is basically to control the big Chao who can speak better, and if that doesn't work, kill the Da Chao.
Lex, there is no doubt that his approach is more vicious...
One hundred kilometers away from this military base, Ange was in his villa, passing through a small portal to monitor Luther in the ward from a distance.
Also watching ‘Live’ with Ange was Catwoman.
She stretched out her graceful body on the chaise longue, holding her cheek with her left hand: "Is this the boy?"
Ange took a sip of Bing Kuo Luo and smiled as he said his 'calculation':
"Well, his plan is pretty good - he hides in the dark, lets noble congressmen serve as pawns, and uses Superman's morality to control Superman. Then he plans to control Superman's relatives to force Dachao to kill him.
Kill another famous superhero, Batman. Oh, maybe this is just the beginning. The best thing is to use Superboy’s hand to kill all the superheroes on the earth, and finally use kryptonite to kill Superhero. Perfect closed loop!”
Ange didn't mention something about a mysterious monster called [Doomsday] because it didn't fit the calculation.
In fact, without him as a time traveler, Lex would at least be pretty close to success.
"It's a pity that he met such a cunning dragon like you." Catwoman spat at Ange.
There is a cunning thing called a fox. However, the fox itself is not very lethal.
The more advanced version is naturally the sinister black dragon or something.
"Are you praising me?"
"I despise you." Even though her body softened when touched, Catwoman's mouth was still hard.
Ange smiled and accepted Catwoman's 'compliment': "This young master Luther is very smart, but unfortunately his biggest problem is that he is used to thinking in a business war mode."
The business war in the movie: The sinister CEO PKs Young Master Duo Jin - sending a Tony Stark-level super hacker to spend an unknown amount of time hacking into the other company's computer system and collecting all unfavorable evidence against the enemy; sending a widow-sister-level female spy
, sneaking into enemy companies, seducing with beauty, invading computers in a closed-loop system... The high-level points directly stage the "Business Empire Trilogy".
Real-life business war: directly poisoning the chairman of a listed company; leading a team to rush into the other party's unit to steal the official seal; instructing his subordinates to unplug the other company's network cable; the chairman jumped over the high wall of the same factory and took pictures of patents in a grand manner.
If you want to be caught by security, you have to calmly show a polite yet awkward smile.
Outrageous?
It’s so outrageous!
In fact, it’s not wrong to think about it, [high-end competition can also be simple].
Why spend so much effort when you can physically destroy your opponent?
Would humans apologize to the ants' relatives for accidentally trampling on them with their shoes?
Everyone follows principles and laws because the state apparatus behind morality and law can restrain each other.
That's right, chaebols rarely engage in physical elimination.
Because you can play assassination and so on, and the other party can also play it.
Just like the old American political arena has defaulted to not liquidating the former president. Once this is started, Pandora's box will be opened, and there will be no end.
But when one party has a combat power that far exceeds that of the old American state machine, and adheres to the concept of "As long as I have no morals, the other party cannot use morality to restrain me", Lex Luthor's actions become ridiculous.
Just listen to Lex curse fiercely, and at the same time his body trembles slightly: "Aren't you afraid of becoming the enemy of the United States? Extraordinary!"
