Chapter 240 i want your golden apple

After the press conference, Russell asked Gwen to take Peter outside to gain reputation.

Superheroes don’t just claim to be recognized by others.

If there is no real case, even if you buy news headlines every day to promote yourself as a superhero, people will not admit it.

After Gwen left with Peter, Russell returned to the office.

Now that he had decided to start with the golden apple in Callum’s hands yesterday, he didn’t intend to waste any time.

Whether it’s the golden apple or the other fragments of the Garden of Eden, to him, they are just gadgets to adjust his life.

As the person in charge of Zhenglian, he can’t always waste time on these little things.

Of course, this was no small matter for the Assassin Brotherhood and the Knights Templar.

“No. 3, is Callum’s current position determined?”

After returning to the office, Russell asked No. 3.

“It’s been confirmed, he’s in a motel in Queens now.”

No. 3 replied quickly.

“Contact him directly and say I want to see him and ask him to come to the Octopus Monster headquarters.”

Russell continued.

“Okay, sir!”

When contacting Callum on the 3rd, Russell took out his phone and dialed Bakshi’s number.

Before long, the call was connected.

“Is it clear whether Hydra has a seat at the high table? If not, there is no need to investigate for the time being.”

“Come to my office with Bucky, I have something new for you to take care of.”

Russell said to Bakshi.

He had intended to use a simpler method to get Winston a seat at the high table.

But after a chat with Diana last night, he felt that simplicity and complexity were not really that different to him.

He didn’t have to deal with these things himself, he just had to make sure that Winston had the strength to pull one of the high table members down.

As for the others, he didn’t need to think so much at all.

After hanging up the phone, he had no idea of playing games or dealing with the chairman’s daily work. He came to the sofa in the reception area to lie down and basked in the sun.

Time passed little by little.

after an hour.

Callum, in a black slacks, and Bakshi, in an expensive, hand-tailored suit, came to his office at the same time.

Of course, Bakshi was also accompanied by the Bucky who didn’t look normal at first.

A normal person would not have a robotic left arm.

Seeing that Russell did not meet with him alone, Callum and Bakshi both showed puzzled expressions.

However, they didn’t say anything and went straight to Russell.

‘sit down!”

Russell said to Callum and Bakshi.

When the two of them sat down, he first asked Callum and Bakshi to introduce each other, and then said to Callum: “I called you over today, there is nothing else, I just want to talk to you about your hands. the golden apple.”

Golden apple?

A puzzled look appeared on Bakshi’s face again.

But right now, neither Russell nor Callum intend to explain to him what a golden apple is.

After hearing Russell’s words, Callum’s expression instantly gloomy, and the whole person’s momentum changed, and he was ready to shoot at any time.

Callum’s change in momentum immediately caught Bucky’s attention.

Although Bucky is not an assassin, as a battle-hardened super soldier and killer, he is not generally sensitive to murderous intent.

“You don’t have to be so vigilant. If I want to rob you, you don’t have a chance to sit here and talk to me, do you?”

Russell didn’t care about Callum’s killing intent, and said calmly.

“What do you want the golden apple for?”

Callum slightly restrained the killing intent on his body, and said in a cold tone.

“What I want to do, this has nothing to do with you, you just need to know that I want the golden apple in your hand.”

“Give me the golden apple in your hand, and I will not only help you rebuild the Brotherhood, but also help you deal with the Knights Templar.”

“This deal is not a loss for you.”

Although Russell can be quite domineering at times, he is not a pure bad guy after all.

What can be solved by peaceful means, he will not be stingy to solve it by peaceful means.

Force, in most cases, is not the best option.

“This deal is not a loss for me, but I can’t trust you.”

Callum said seriously.

“Trust is something that can be built slowly.”

“Well, for the sake of everyone’s first cooperation, I can advance some of your strength to let you fight against the Knights Templar and rebuild the Brotherhood. What do you think?”

Russell said with a smile.

“A part of the strength in advance?”

Callum didn’t quite understand what Russell meant.

“Yes, I will give you a part of the strength in advance.”

“You are an assassin with rich combat experience. You should see that Bakshi is not a qualified fighter.”

“I can let Bakshi prove what it means to give you a part of your strength in advance.”

After speaking, Russell motioned for Bakshi to stand up.

Afterwards, bypassing Bakshi and using the “absolute order” of the King’s Serum, he directly issued an order to Bai Jue No. 20, who was possessed by Bakshi.

Bai Jue 20 was originally possessed by the North American gray wolf.

But in order to better protect Bakshi, Bai Jue No. 20 changed the host and possessed Bakshi.

After receiving the order given by Russell with “Absolute Order”, Bai Jue No. 20 directly took over Bakshi’s body.

White tentacles of different sizes gushed out of Bakshi.

A few seconds later, Bakshi, who was dressed like a successful person in a neat suit, and who was also a successful entrepreneur himself, transformed into a white man.

The white absolute form is actually the serum form that Russell used before, which is the general form of the white monster.

When Bakshi entered the White Jue form, Callum instinctively became vigilant and looked at Bakshi seriously.

“Bakshi is just an ordinary person without any combat training.”

“His current form is called Bai Jue’s form, which is the transformed form after being possessed by the alien symbiote Bai Jue.”

“In this form, he has the strength not to lose to those with extraordinary abilities.”

“If you don’t believe it, you can try it yourself.”

Russell said to Callum.

His plan was simple, to show Callum the power of Bai Jue.

As long as Callum had seen the power of Bai Jue, he would have known that the Assassin of the Brotherhood or the Grand Master of the Knights Templar was the same thing.

In front of Bai Jue, the members of the Assassin Brotherhood and the Knights Templar are not generally vulnerable.

“you sure?”

Callum said slowly.

“Of course!”

“If I’m not mistaken, your cooperation with the High Table is nothing more than trying to use those famous killers to make up for the lack of combat power of the Brotherhood.”

“Since you need strength that can compete with the Knights Templar, I have a better choice here.”

Russell replied with a smile.

Callum didn’t speak, thinking silently.

Russell was right. The reason why he cooperated with the High Table was that he wanted to use those famous killers as cannon fodder against the Knights Templar.

According to the rules of the Brotherhood, these famous killers are also on their assassination lists.

In the hands of these famous killers, there are a large number of innocent lives.

To the Brotherhood’s assassins, these killers were not a pity to die.

If it wasn’t that there was no way out, he wouldn’t choose to cooperate with the high table.

After pondering for dozens of seconds, Callum said slowly: “Since you are so confident in this so-called Bai Jue, then I also want to see what kind of strength this Bai Jue has!”

After that, Callum stood up and came to Bakshi, who had entered the form of Bai Jue.

Although Russell’s office is not a specialized training ground, it is not small in size and has enough space to fight.

“Pay attention to strength, don’t kill my future cooperative customers.”

Russell gave an order to Bai Jue No. 20.

After hearing Russell’s words, Callum showed a displeased expression.

Before the official fight, Russell already thought he was going to lose, which would be somewhat unpleasant.

But soon, Callum knew why Russell said this.

The battle between Bai Jue 20 and Callum only lasted less than two minutes and ended.

In the face of Bai Jue, who was superior in strength, speed, reflexes, and resilience, Callum’s assassination skills were meaningless.

If Russell hadn’t instructed Bai Jue 20 in advance to pay attention to his strength, Callum wouldn’t have been able to last even a minute.

This is not a battle at all, but a unilateral dimensionality reduction strike.

Callum, who can only use cold weapons, threatens the New York police who have not used Glock pistols in front of White Jue 20.

Although the Glock pistol is unlikely to threaten the life of Bai Jue No. 20, it will still have some feeling when it hits him.

If you hit the mouth and eyes, the feeling will be more obvious.

After a battle that was not considered a battle, Bai Jue No. 20 pulled up Callum who had fallen to the ground, carried him to Russell, and placed him on the sofa opposite Russell.

“Bai Jue’s strength, you should have experienced it yourself now. If you want to accept my cooperation proposal, you can tell me the answer now.”

Russell said to Callum.

Callum didn’t answer Russell immediately, but took a deep breath for a few seconds to suppress the pain from his body.

Afterwards, he looked at Russell with a dignified expression and said slowly, “If I give you the golden apple, how many Bai Jue can I get?”

“In terms of attribution, you don’t get one.”

“But in terms of usage rights, I can let the Four White Absolutes assist you against the Knights Templar.”

The number of Four White Jue is not what Russell said casually, but the number he decided after reading the information collected by No. 3.

Although Russell only instructed No. 3 to find the trace of Callum, when looking for the trace of Callum, No. 3 found the traces of the three of Nathan.

It’s actually quite difficult not to find out, after all, they came out of the same residential building at the same time, and they are all very different from ordinary people.

Just a little investigation of the fake documents used by the three Nathans to book the air tickets, and then follow the clues. On the 3rd, it was confirmed that the three Nathans and Callum were a group.

In investigating this information, No. 3 was more efficient than the NYPD and the FBI combined.

After all, No. 3 does not have to follow the so-called legal process.

The database of the New York branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. can be forcibly invaded, and the databases of other official organizations are the same as undefended to No. 3.

“Only four?”

Callum started bargaining.

“There are only four members of your Roman Assassin Brotherhood. You can’t expect me to give you too much vain.”

“The four Bai Jue are already quite a few, and you have experienced the strength of Bai Jue just now.”

“With Bai Jue’s help, even if the four of you force your way into the Knights Templar headquarters, you won’t have much problem.”

Russell won’t give Callum a chance to raise his price.

“Four, just four, but I can’t give you the golden apple now.”

Since there was no way to increase the number of White Jue, Callum began to think of ways from other places, such as handing over the golden apples later.

“Can!”

“The golden apple can be given to me until you resolve the current crisis and rebuild the Roman Brotherhood of Assassins. I’m not in a hurry.”

Russell also didn’t expect Callum to hand him the golden apple right away.

Callum only has this hole card in his hand, and he can’t hand over the hole card so easily.

“Aren’t you afraid that I won’t fulfill the promise and forcibly take Bai Jue away?”

Callum asked in confusion.

“You wouldn’t do such a stupid thing, I’m sure you’re not such a stupid person.”

Russell said with a smile.

After seeing the indifferent expression on Russell’s face, Callum fell silent again.

“Happy cooperation!”

After thinking for more than ten seconds, Callum said to Russell.

“Happy cooperation!”

Russell stretched out his right hand, smiled and shook hands with Callum.

After chatting about the follow-up settlement, Callum left the office.

When he left, Russell signaled Bai Jue 20 to release his transformation and return control of his body to Bakshi.

“Let’s put the Hydra thing first, I have one thing for you to do now.”

“I promised Winston to help him get a seat at the high table.”

“His current strength is not able to cope with any of the members of the high table. You go to help him and help him win the seat of the high table.”

“When he came to power, he swallowed the whole high table.”

Russell said to Bakshi.

“Although the High Table is just a killer organization, their forces are spread all over the world, and their members are all local snakes in the underground world. It is not easy to swallow them.”

Bakshi frowned.

Although the high table table has no advanced combat power, it does not mean that the high table table is easy to solve.

An organization that can promote the gold coin system of the mainland hotel to the entire killer world, even if it can’t compare with the SHIELD Hydra, it will not be too weak.

“It’s really going to be a little bit difficult to do it the conventional way.”

“But it won’t be difficult if you can forcefully subdue it with power far beyond the opponent’s.”

“I will give you all the resources you need, Zaku armor, enhanced serum, Bai Jue, as long as you need, I can give you.”

“My request is only one, to help Winston take the position in the shortest time, and then swallow the high table.”

Russell said calmly.

“Doing so would cause unnecessary trouble and possibly even the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D. and other official agencies.”

Bakshi, who was accustomed to Hydra’s “low-key” style, could not accept Russell’s domineering approach for a while.

“It doesn’t matter, if you attract attention, you will attract attention. This is what I want.”

After hearing Russell’s answer, Bakshi immediately reacted.

“Are you trying to kill chickens to warn monkeys?”

“Yes, your progress in replacing Pierce and Whitehall’s leadership position is too slow. Since there are still so many people who disapprove of you, then you should show your strength.”

“Although the high table table does not have any extraordinary combat power, compared with several other Hydra branches, the high table table is not too weak, and it is a very suitable chicken.”

Had Bakshi been a little more efficient, and now replaced Pierce and Whitehall as leaders, Russell wouldn’t need to scare off the rest of Hydra’s branches.

But unfortunately, Bakshi’s work efficiency is not as high as he thought.

“Okay, I see what you mean!”

Although this was not in line with his usual way of doing things, Russell had already decided, and Bakshi could only do as he ordered.

“The matter of Winston and the high table will be handed over to you, and No. 3 will also assist you. If you need anything, just tell No. 3 directly.”

“I hope you will bring good news when you report to me next time.”

After speaking, Russell told Bakshi and Bucky to leave the office.

When the two of them left, he asked No. 3 to contact Winston and let Winston know that Bakshi and Bucky would come over to assist him.

After dealing with these things, he suddenly found that Perkins was suddenly idle because his plans had changed.

According to the original plan, Perkins would be sent to assist Winston in securing a seat at the high table.

But with the assistance of Bakshi and Bucky, Perkins has no need to assist Winston.

Forehead??????

Continuing to put Perkins at the headquarters of Zhenglian will definitely not work.

After thinking for a while, he decided to assign Perkins a new task.

“No. 3, did you find a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent named Mockingbird when you invaded the database of the New York branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. yesterday?”

Although No. 3 invaded the database of the New York branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. yesterday, No. 3 went for the information on the fragments of the Garden of Eden.

“No, the information of the senior agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is stored in the database of the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

No. 3 replied immediately.

After hearing No. 3’s answer, Russell gave up the idea that had just come to his mind.

If No. 3 found the information of the Mockingbird Barbara, an agent of SHIELD, he would not mind letting Perkins replace Barbara and become the second spy of Zhenglian infiltrating SHIELD.

But if not, then forget it.

After thinking about it, he decided not to arrange any new tasks for Perkins for the time being.

Just take it easy!

Anyway, there are a lot of people at Zhenglian who are idle now, and Kara is already idle enough to make movies.

As for Hulk, Godzilla, and Grendel, not to mention three, they are all about to become home otaku.

Next, Russell did nothing, lying on the sofa in the reception area and basking in the sun.

It wasn’t until the afternoon, when he finished the chairman’s work today, that he flew out of the office at the Octopus Monster headquarters and headed to the Zhenglian headquarters in the suburbs.

Gwen is now taking Peter to gain reputation outside, and Hulk is the only one in the headquarters of Zhenglian.

In order to prevent Hulk from being too boring, he planned to play with Hulk in the past and learn from each other.

Although Hulk is now less and less like to compare with him, because no matter how much he learns, Hulk can’t win.

However, this did not affect Russell’s idea of looking for Hulk to learn from.

After arriving at the front office, Russell brought the Hulk in the bedroom to the training ground.

Then, in the case of Hulk’s helpless expression, he and Hulk started an unfair discussion at all.

There is no doubt that this time the competition ended with his victory.

After feeling that he finally did something meaningful today, he left Zhenglian headquarters with satisfaction and returned to the apartment where he lived.

The next week, Russell led an otherwise unremarkable life.

Learn the magic of Kama Taj, and learn little by little how to use the power you already have.

Carry out the day-to-day duties of the chairman of Octopus Industries, signing documents and playing the occasional game of flying chess with her blond secretary.

Although the days were a bit dull, Russell quite liked the current state.

There are no supervillains who want to rule the world, no major crises that endanger the security of the world, no uninvited alien invaders…

While he didn’t do anything particularly high-profile this week, there was a lot going on outside.

First, with the help of Bakshi and Bucky, Winston was finally promoted from manager of the Continental Hotel in New York to real management, and became a member of the High Table.

The day after Winston got his seat at the high table, Bakshi and Bucky, with all the gear provided by No. 3, began their attack on the other members of the high table.

In just two or three days, 4 of the 12 members of the high table died in their hands.

Being able to have such amazing efficiency is inseparable from Winston, who has just become a member of the high table.

Russell fulfilled his promise, giving Winston a seat at the high table.

After winning the seat, Winston also gave what he could do in return.

For example, sending Bakshi and Bucky information about other members of the High Table.

These things were all communicated by Bakshi and Winston, and Russell did not know.

All he knew was that Winston had won a seat at the high table, and that Bakshi and Bucky were following his request to make an example.

In addition to the high table side, the progress on Callum’s side is also very good.

With the help of Bai Jue, Callum and the four gained a power they had never had before.

They not only resisted the arrest of the Knights Templar, but also took the opportunity to break into the London headquarters of the Knights Templar, and rescued many descendants of assassins like them~www.readmtl.com~ Although these descendants of assassins were not Exactly the same descendants of the Roman Assassins, but they were also descended from the Brotherhood anyway.

Not long after they invaded the Knights Templar headquarters in London, the four Callum received messages from other Brotherhood branches, euphemistically expressing their desire to compete with them against the Knights Templar, just like their ancestors as it used to be.

Callum did not reject the good intentions of these branches, and began to contact the various branches of the Brotherhood all over the world, as if to reunite the Brotherhood.

These news were not told to Russell by Callum, but were quietly notified to Russell by Bai Jue, who was possessed by Callum.

Callum never thought that Bai Jue, who possessed them, actually had a spiritual link with Russell that could not be explained by science.

Not only Callum and the other four didn’t think of this, but Russell himself was taken aback when he received a message from Bai Jue, who was far away in London.

Although he used the “absolute order” of King Serum to issue orders remotely before, he had never tried to establish a spiritual connection with Bai Jue at a distance of 6,000 kilometers.
