Chapter 120: Churches Seeking Cooperation

After many twists and turns, Kevin did not expect to be related to the United Church in the end.

However, unlike the original relationship in which Deep Sea was almost "enslaved" by the United Church, Kevin now stands on an equal position with the United Church.

Or even a higher position.

Even Alister, the leader of the United Church, may not be able to meet Kevin if he does not invite Kevin in this way.

After all, the United Church is only a small church now. It may have some influence, but their popularity is not too high.

And Kevin is the vice president of the Water Group. If you want to meet Kevin, of course you have to go through some procedures.

After taking a quick look at the superhumans on both sides, Kevin said to Alister:

"Don't say anything extra. Tell me why you invited me here. I think... you brought Hawkshooter and Blindspot here, it should not be just to thank me for letting Shockwave join the Seven."

Yes, the superhumans standing on both sides are the two superhumans who appeared in the second season.

The prototype is 'Hawkeye', who uses bows and arrows as weapons and is the sharpshooter of the black robe world.

The prototype is 'Daredevil', who has four keen senses except for his eyes, but was blinded by Homelander's double wind piercing ears in the original book.

They sat together on the side of Alister, opposite Shockwave, one of them looked at Kevin with a rather nervous look, and although the other one couldn't see his eyes, Kevin could feel his heart beating fast.

Kevin had basically guessed why they were here.

But he needed Alister to say it.

Listening to Kevin's question, Alister glanced at Shockwave on the other side.

He thought for a while and said with a smile:

"It seems that Mr. Weiss, you have known that Shockwave is our man for a long time."

"I was just suspicious at first, but after seeing you here, I am basically sure."

"It's strange. Our church's actions are not very big, and most people won't pay too much attention to us. Mr. Wiz, you..."

"If you keep talking nonsense, we won't have to continue this dinner today."

Kevin interrupted Alister.

Perhaps because the United Church had a terrible trap in the original Deep Sea Pit, Kevin didn't have much good feelings for this church, and the United Church itself was also very dangerous. Kevin was not good at beating around the bush, so it was better to be direct.

Alister was not angry at Kevin's rude interruption. He continued to speak along with Kevin's words:

"Okay, Mr. Wiz, you are impatient, I know that, so let's get straight to the point... Mr. Wiz, you will soon quit the seven-man team, right? Then I'd like to ask, have you chosen the next new member?"

"Well, your "impolite" is really presumptuous. Can I understand that you are trying to find out the business secrets of our Water Group?"

"No, no, no, I'm just curious. By the way, I'd like to give you a little suggestion, Mr. Wiz. If you don't have a suitable candidate, how about these two?"

Perhaps knowing that Kevin doesn't like to keep people in suspense, Alister didn't beat around the bush and simply pointed out his purpose.

The two superhumans on the side straightened their chests when they heard Alister mention them, and at the same time they were also wary of each other.

"Hawk Shooter, Blindspot, I know they are both pretty good superheroes, but why do you think I will listen to your advice and choose them to join the Seven? Mr. Adana, any decision of the Vought Group is not something that an outsider like you can interfere with."

Kevin knew what Alister meant, but that didn't mean he would really accept Alister's advice to let members of the United Church join the Seven.

To put it bluntly, the United Church is not qualified to get involved in such things.

Shockwave was just an accident. If Kevin couldn't find a member to replace the locomotive at this stage, he would definitely not choose Shockwave.

Kevin's refusal was within Alister's expectations.

"I know, of course I know that we outsiders can't interfere in such things, but excuse me, Mr. Wiz, you don't seem to be one of them in the Vought Group, am I right?"

"Why do you think so?"

"Mr. Wiz, although our United Church is a small organization, we are well-informed. We know everything about you, Mr. Wiz, even today's attack..."

Attack?

Kevin instantly remembered the billboard that smashed his sports car today, and almost thought that this incident was done by the United Church.

But on second thought, Kevin felt that this was impossible.

Because the United Church did not have the courage, and they did not have the ability to do such a thing. Even if they had the ability, it would not be in the interests of the United Church.

They might really just want to cooperate with Kevin through this message.

"What do you know?"

Kevin asked, slightly interested in the United Church.

Alistair smiled and said:

"I don't know much. I only know that there seems to be disagreement within the Water Group now, and you, as a superhuman, entered the top management of the Water Group, and it seems that they don't like you, so I want to..."

"Cooperate with me."

"Yes, our United Church can help Mr. Weisz gain a foothold in the Water Group, and you only need to arrange one more of our people in."

The United Church is looking for Kevin for cooperation.

They have a lot of black materials about superheroes, and there are also many secret news about the top management of the Water Group.

But without a suitable backer, the United Church did not dare to really use this information to deal with the Water Group.

Kevin is the backer chosen by the United Church.

They will help Kevin to deal with the enemies Kevin wants to deal with, and the price Kevin pays is just to let the people of the United Church enter the Water Group.

That's all.

The intention of the United Church is very clear, and Kevin seriously thinks about the feasibility of this.

The Water Group is indeed excluding Kevin from entering the core layer, and coupled with today's attack, these things make Kevin somewhat unhappy.

Originally, Kevin wanted to announce Compound No. 5 to disgust the Water Group first.

But if the United Church can become Kevin's tool to disgust the Water Group, then Kevin does not need to announce the matter of Compound No. 5 now.

Thinking of this, Kevin became a little more serious and observed Eagle Shooter and Blind Spot.

After a while, he frowned and said:

"I admit that Mr. Adana's proposal... is very tempting, but I'm sorry, whether it is Eagle Shooter or Blind Spot, they are not qualified to join the Seven-Man Team."

"Why? Now the Seven-Man Team is almost all white, while Eagle Shooter is African-American and Blind Spot is Asian, which is just right to create the diversity of the Seven-Man Team..."

"Strength, Mr. Adana, the most basic thing for the Seven-Man Team is not only diversity, but also strength is an indispensable part, and the strength of Eagle Shooter and Blind Spot..."

To put it bluntly, they may not even be able to beat the deep sea before Kevin crossed over.

After all, Shenhai is the sixth-ranked student in Godokin College.

Shenhai did not say anything final here, leaving some face for the two superheroes, and continued:

"... In short, if you want to cooperate with me, please let them improve their strength and fame, or change someone, then I might consider it."

"Mr. Weisz, have you agreed to cooperate with us?"

"Not yet, I'm just waiting and watching. If you can really bring me what I want, cooperation is not impossible."

Kevin did not say anything final.

He did not plan to cooperate with the United Church immediately, but he did not plan not to cooperate with the church.

In short, it is to keep the other party hanging first, and wait until the other party brings Kevin tangible and tangible benefits, and then Kevin will decide whether to cooperate with the other party.

This sounded very irresponsible, just like a scumbag hanging a spare tire, but Alister laughed very happily.

He didn't care that Hawkshooter and Blindspot were both eliminated in front of Kevin. He smiled and said:

"Okay, I am satisfied with what you said, Mr. Wiz... Mr. Wiz, would you like a bottle of orange soda?"

"No, I don't like soda. Let's stop talking today. If there is anything in the future, you can let Shockwave contact me."

After talking about things, Kevin prepared to get up.

Alister also got up and asked:

"Don't you want to leave after dinner?"

"No appetite, that's it, see you later."

After talking to Alister perfunctorily, Kevin left the dinner.

The United Church has a long history, and many superhumans have joined during this period. Even Storm was once a member of the United Church.

As a result, they have a lot of information about superheroes, or black materials.

Kevin needs these black materials, and the United Church can provide Kevin with help. This is the basis for Kevin's cooperation with the United Church.

But other than that...Kevin doesn't think the United Church can help him.

Cooperation with them can only be said to be better than nothing.

After meeting with the people from the United Church, Kevin thought about it and did not go home. Instead, he returned to the office in the Water Building and asked Ashley to sort out tomorrow's schedule.

The impact of the attack will not be eliminated so easily. As a party involved, Kevin not only has to express condolences to the victims of today's accident, but also has to hold a press conference to characterize this incident as a "super villain" incident.

This is the decision of the top management of the group.

Not only that, Kevin also has to meet with members of Congress to use this opportunity to continue to promote superheroes to serve in important government departments.

These are all things he needs to do as the vice president.

Kevin was busy in the office, and turned on the TV to watch the news.

But at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the office room, and then someone pushed the door and walked in.

It was Homelander.

"It's strange that you come to see me so late."

Seeing that it was Homelander, Kevin said casually.

Homelander put his hands behind his back, paced in Kevin's room, sat down on the sofa in the room, and responded:

"You too, I haven't seen you working in the company so late."

Kevin adheres to the principle of not working overtime. Basically, he gets off work on time. Even if there is work, unless it is particularly urgent, he will generally leave it until the next day.

It's the first time that Homelander has seen someone stay in the company and work overtime on his own initiative like now.

Kevin smiled and said directly:

"Okay, no need to be polite. What do you want to talk to me about? If it's about the selection of the seven-member team, please go to Mr. Edgar. Storm's joining is a certainty."

"No, not her."

Homelander shook his head and suddenly asked:

"Do you know Rebecca Butcher?"

"......?"

Hearing this name, Kevin's hand that was typing on the keyboard paused, and then returned to normal:

"Sounds familiar, what's wrong with this person?"

"She used to be an employee of the public relations department of the Water Group. Something happened between her and me... and then she disappeared."

Homelander talked about Rebecca and said what he had done to her without hiding anything.

Hearing this, Kevin stopped his work and looked at Homelander.
