The Force of the Phoenix

Chapter 150, Poaching corners
a few days later.

The gas explosion at the headquarters of the Combustion Group soon faded out of people's sight.

The maintenance of the castle is still in progress. After all, it is considered a work of art. Naturally, it is impossible to just paint a few bricks on it and repair it. It will take a lot of work to restore it to its original appearance.

Luo Yang directly bought a building in Manhattan, New York with his wealth and wealth, and used it as the office area of ​​the Burning Group.

The seaside castle is all used as the residence of Luo Yang and several core personnel.

Different from the gentle wind and drizzle of the outside world, ZF has been panicking in recent days. Although most people don't know that an alien race has secretly invaded the earth, Steve and others have arrested a large number of officials pretending to be Skrulls at once. .

A lot of people were arrested all of a sudden, and some normal people around felt uncomfortable, let alone those who knew the truth.

Because Skrulls can become anyone, Steve had to reuse a group of esper agents. After all, Skrulls’ genetic replication is shallow, and it is impossible to copy the abilities of espers.

Otherwise, as long as the Skrulls copy a group of Omega-level superpowers and form an Omega-level team, wouldn't they be invincible in the world.

On this day, the first-generation surprise captain, Mai Will, contacted Steve, and the peaceful Skrulls decided to cooperate with the people on Earth, and invited Steve Rogers, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., to meet with Luo Yang .

With the help of the peaceful Skrulls, it will be much easier to catch the remaining radical Skrulls.

So at noon that day, Luo Yang and Steve took a group of esper agents to the location designated by the other party.

It was a deserted beach by the sea.

"I heard that your castle was blown up by gas a few days ago? Is it true?" Steve asked with a teasing smile on his face after seeing Luo Yang.

Luo Yang rolled his eyes at the other party angrily, "Don't tell me you don't know the truth. Doesn't SHIELD claim to know everything? Why...you want to ask that girl?"

"Did you use mind reading on me?" Steve asked uncertainly.

"Hey, do you still need to use mind reading skills for that little thought?" Luo Yang retorted unceremoniously, "At present, Jean Gray is just a superpower with strong spiritual power, and she signed a contract with me. Don’t think about a legal employment relationship, S.H.I.E.L.D.!”

Luo Yang's emphasis on the 'legal' employment relationship, to Steve's ears, felt like trying to cover up.

These days, people with superpowers enjoy equal rights and interests, and there is a huge demand for people with superpowers from all walks of life. However, although there are many people with superpowers, more than 90.00% of them are low-level people with superpowers.

Although the number of mid-to-high-level superpowers is increasing year by year, in the face of an increasingly large population base, mid-to-high-level superpowers are still rare.

In the huge S.H.I.E.L.D. Bureau, there are less than ten superpowers above LV3.

SHIELD and ZF are keeping an eye on those children who have outstanding performance in Super Academy and X Academy, and are almost trying every means to poach them to their side.

The other party wanted to poach him, so of course Luo Yang had to poach him back.

So she turned her head to look at the first-generation surprise captain, Mai Will, and met again. Mai Will returned to her true face. She turned into Wendy Lawson just to deceive people. The real Mai Will is actually very young.

Just like a younger version of Dr. Lawson, if you only look at appearance, May Will is no less beautiful than any woman Luo Yang has ever seen.

"Ms. Mai Weir, how are you thinking about my suggestion? Are you interested in working in the scientific research and development department of Combustion Group?" Luo Yang asked with a smile.

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Steve folded his hands on his chest: "Dr. Lawson has resigned from the Pegasus Project. I think she should have agreed to your invitation."

No wonder Steve's resentment runs so deep.

This corner was really dug out by myself.

What Luo Yang lacks the most is scientific and technological talents. Although his scientific research team is also very powerful, it is far inferior to the honorary advisors of S.H.I.E.L.D., Howard Stark and Hank Pym Super genius.

Even on Professor X's side, they have a little research expert Beast McCoy.

Luo Yang couldn't poach these people even if he wanted to, and now that the first-generation Captain Marvel, Mike Will, is willing to join Luo Yang, he finally has scientific research talents he can use.

Standing beside the two of them, Marville smiled lightly, "Mr. Luo Yang, the direction of my research is still the superluminal engine..."

"No problem, as long as you're happy!"

Luo Yang doesn't care what conditions she puts forward, first trick the person over and then treat him as a national scholar. When the time comes, ask her for a little help. Are you ashamed to refuse?
Everyone came to the agreed place.

On the beach, several people are playing by the sea.

Several agents accompanying Steve were about to go up and drive away the idlers, but at this moment, those playing civilians suddenly turned into Skrulls.

One of the older Skrulls walked towards Luo Yang and the others.

"Mr. Luo Yang, Mr. Steve, Ms. Will, our officer has been waiting for a long time!"

As he said that, the Skrull stretched out a hand towards the sea and made a gesture of invitation.

Steve didn't understand what the man meant for a while, so he looked at Marville, who smiled and explained: "The spaceship of the Skrulls is parked on the sea. Of course, they activated the cloaking device."

It turned out to be the case.

Everyone followed the Skrulls towards the sea.

After walking about two or three hundred meters, a rectangular regular pattern suddenly appeared in the space in front of him, and then a ship hatch was revealed.

into it.

A strong sense of future technology came into view, everyone looked around curiously, passed through the two cabins at the entrance, and a very long corridor, and finally came to the bridge of the Skrull spaceship.

There was already a line of people waiting here on the bridge, and a few small heads poked out from time to time at the door not far away.

After Luo Yang and the others came in, a tall Skrull with the smoothest forehead walked towards Luo Yang and the others, and stretched out his hand skillfully, introducing himself: "My name is Talos, and this ship Captain of the ship."

After the two sides shook hands, Luo Yang asked bluntly: "Ms. May Will should have made it clear to you, the earth will provide shelter, and you need to share the technology of the Skrulls..."

Luo Yang doesn't like business gossip. He has always believed in negotiating if he can, and disbanding if he can't.

But Talos waved his hand and said, "Mr. Luo Yang, let's not talk about the cooperation. I would like to ask you a question. Is the power that appeared in your castle a few days ago the Phoenix Force?"
