Hufflepuff in the Marvel Universe

After the Battle of Liberty Island, Gu Zhongyan thought that New York would soon become lively.

In fact, not to mention New York, even Hell's Kitchen seems to be calm.

Perhaps because all traces of the battle on Liberty Island were erased by Gu Zhongyan, the officials found an excuse to promote that the battle on Liberty Island that day was just a spoof video shot by someone using special effects technology.

Especially after the beast appeared, the special electromagnetic reaction destroyed all the surrounding electronic equipment. There was no evidence and seeing the Liberty Island exactly the same as before, it seemed that the battle that day was really just a show.

Although there are still many media and people who doubt the official statement, they can't find any evidence and the matter ends up being settled.

However, this calmness is obviously only on the surface. Under the calm water, major underground organizations and governments of various countries have classified the matter as a first-level secret and took frequent actions.

Of course, Hell's Kitchen wasn't completely unresponsive.

At least two companies have experienced violent shocks, and both companies have something to do with him.

The first one was the Midtown Circle Financial Company. As the headquarters of the Hand, after the Hand's demise, the Midtown Circle Financial Company was naturally dug out, and was quickly accused of a large number of crimes, and was directly declared bankrupt.

The company closed down, and Gu Zhongyan, an intern who participated in social practice, naturally had no choice but to end his practice and go home.

The other is Rand-Meacham Industries Group, the family business of Iron Fist Danny Rand. As the heir to the Rand family, Danny owns 50.00% of the shares of the Rand Group and enjoys absolute control.

However, due to the disappearance, the current Rand Group has long fallen into the hands of Harold Meacham, Rand's father's business partner and another controller of the Rand Group.

In the original plot, the Rand Corporation was infiltrated by the Hand, and Harold was unwilling to hand over the Rand Corporation, which was under his control, so he joined forces with the Hand to try to kill Danny, but was ultimately foiled by Danny. Conspiracy to regain the power of the Rand Group.

'Stupid' Danny can single-handedly take back the power of the Rand Group from Harold, not to mention that now with the help of the Defenders, taking back the power is even easier.

Yes, under Gu Zhongyan's persuasion, Matt and others finally agreed to form the Defenders Alliance.

Everyone has a clear division of labor, and in addition to secretly fighting crime, a preliminary organizational system has also been formed.

As a lawyer, Matt provides the Defenders with a clear understanding of legal issues and avoids unnecessary conflicts with government agencies.

Jessica is the alliance's first scout, mainly responsible for collecting the necessary evidence against the Defenders' targets.

Luke's bar is the secret stronghold and information exchange center of the Defenders.

Danny's Rand Group is undoubtedly the largest financial backer in the entire alliance. Although it is not as good as international giants such as Stark Industries and Hammer Industries, it is also a top-notch enterprise group in New York. It couldn't be easier to support a Defenders League.

If the above four people are the bright side of the Defenders Alliance, then Gunsou and Gu Zhongyan are the backside of the Defenders Alliance.

Gunsou, who has experience in forming and managing the Zhenzhen Society, became the chief steward of the Defenders Alliance. He was secretly responsible for the operation of the Defenders Alliance. He also gathered the forces of the Zhenzhen Society and some of the Hand, and secretly took over the underground forces in Hell's Kitchen. .

Gu Zhongyan, who proposed the formation of the Defenders Alliance but did not care much about the Defenders Alliance himself, was responsible for the logistics of the Defenders Alliance, which mainly included using magic to make equipment and potions.

At first, the four Matts expressed strong opposition to Gunsou taking over the underground forces in Hell's Kitchen.

They believe that doing so is no different from the Hand and Fisk, and they believe that all these underground forces should be sent to prison.

But Gu Zhongyan said that there is light and darkness in this world, and the underground forces in Hell's Kitchen, a chaotic place, cannot be cleaned up.

As long as they have a choice, not many people are willing to join the underground forces. Even if they send all these people to prison, new forces will emerge. Wildfires will never burn out, and spring breezes will blow again.

Instead of playing like whack-a-mole to fight this today and that tomorrow, it is better to use powerful forces to integrate these chaotic organizations. Although they cannot avoid their persecution of Hell's Kitchen, they can use underground rules to minimize the losses.

This approach is undoubtedly not welcomed by this group of superheroes, but it is in line with the anti-hero Gunsouchi's wishes.

In the end, under the strong request of Gunsou and Gu Zhongyan, they acquiesced to this approach.

However, the four people also publicly stated that although they agreed with Gunsou's integration of underground forces, they did not agree that these forces belonged to the Defenders Alliance. If they met, they would not show mercy just because they were members of Gunsou.

So, in a sense, there were signs of schism in the Defenders from the very beginning.

The two sides of darkness and light seem irreconcilable.

However, Gu Chongyan is happy to see the results.

Even though he proposed and lobbied everyone to form the Defenders Alliance, in fact, he didn't care how far this alliance would develop.

Without him, Gu Zhongyan knows very well how high the upper limit of this world is. The Defenders Alliance is just a novice village. It can still make a difference before the superhero era comes.

As those entities that affect the world, galaxies and even the entire universe appear one after another, the Defenders are simply insignificant.

He actively formed the Defenders Alliance for only one purpose, and that was money.

A penny can stump a hero. As the saying goes, money is not everything, but having no money is absolutely impossible, especially for money-burning professions like wizards and mages.

Although the upper limit of magic in the Marvel universe is much higher than that in the Harry Potter world, because the magical era has passed and the current universe is technological, there are very few magical materials in nature.

Fortunately, in addition to these, gold, silver, precious metals and gems are also a kind of magic material, but if you want enough materials, you need a lot of money.

As a high school student, Gu Chongyan naturally had no way to make money, and he couldn't make much money. He was not willing to use magic to do things that deceived and deceived the price.

Then it is only natural to form the Defenders Alliance and then work hard in exchange for some reward.

Similarly, secretly supporting Gunsou to integrate underground forces is also because it can quickly accumulate wealth.

In a sense, Gunsou's behavior was actually Gu Chongyan's instruction from the beginning, and he was the real controller behind it.
