Chapter 058 Three people?
For Raymond, whether it is superheroes, villains, or anti-heroes like David and Lorna, they are essentially no different, they are all objects that can be used to wool.
As long as there is contact, he can openly put the exploration value on them.
So he is actually not afraid of trouble, especially troubles like this that have the opportunity to get more exploration values. It doesn’t matter if he gets more trouble.
The more you have, the better.
When he thought of having another "fat sheep" tomorrow, he felt better and better, and even the discomfort that had been caused by Clarice's joining the flop organization was wiped out.
It is worth mentioning that the reason why he did not forcefully break the connection between Clarice and John in the end was not that he was really moved by Clarice's inner monologue.
It was mainly because when he saw the appearance of the absorber Carl, he suddenly realized that Clarice, who had awakened his abilities, could not really stay at home and be a good girl forever.
There will be no underground organization for mutants, there will be Hellfire Club, and there will be other organizations without Hellfire Club.
This world, which seems to be temporarily returning to peace, is always undercurrents.
He wanted to completely isolate Clarice from the extraordinary world, unless he locked this girl at home and didn't let him go anywhere, otherwise the difficulty would be too great.
Since it is difficult to stop anyway, why should he be this evil person?
There is nothing wrong with keeping Clarice in the mutant underground organization at least in the general direction. Moreover, even if there is a problem, just like this time, it is probably still within his controllable range.
If you really join some more extreme organizations, it is hard to say what will become.
So Raymond finally decided not to interfere.
"After that, I don't know who that Black Emperor is..." After temporarily putting Clarice's affairs aside, Raymond's attention could not help but shifted to tomorrow's meeting.
This time, he really had no idea.
Although the general context of this world is somewhat similar to the popular Marvel parallel universes he knows, there are many differences in details.
Just like the absorber Carl, whom he had just seen, in those popular Marvel parallel universes, he was either a magic horseman created by Loki, who was created by Loki to deal with Thor; or the Inhumans who were subdued by Hydra, loyally working for Hydra.
But it seems that no parallel universe is a member of Hellfire Club, and he is also one of the core members.
Just a Carl is enough to prove that the Hellfire Club in this world is very different from what he knows, and he cannot infer more information based on the information he knows.
However, this unknown feeling made him look forward to tomorrow's meeting.
**********
Outside Richmond International Airport.
Carl, a white-collar worker in a suit, was standing next to a trash can holding a cigar and browsing his phone casually.
At this moment, his shoulder was suddenly patted, which scared him.
When I turned around, I saw a burly man standing behind me, wearing a white suit, like an iron tower!
If Leonid, the director of the Battle House who had fought with Raymond, would probably doubt whether his nickname was wrong, because this person was obviously much more like a polar bear than him.
At least it's true in size.
Next to him was a woman wearing a tight black leather skirt and graceful figure, looking at Carl with a smile and said, "Tsk tsk tsk...Carl, I heard that she suffered a loss this time?"
"Sir Betsy, why are you here too?" Carl was very surprised to see the appearance of the graceful woman.
Because this graceful woman is no one else, she is the core member of the Hellfire Club who has the title of "Black Queen" and the nominal partner of "Black King".
As for the burly man like an iron tower, he is naturally the Black Emperor.
It should be noted that whether it is the Black Emperor and the Black Queen, or the White Emperor and the White Queen, the actual relationship between them is actually just a partner, not necessarily a spouse.
Although there have been many examples of partners getting together in the history of Hellfire Club, it is not a convention.
Therefore, these two can basically be regarded as the masters and second masters of Hellfire Club.
Carl was surprised to see the two appear at the same time.
Previously, the Black Emperor only said that he would come here once, but he didn't expect that even the Black Queen, who rarely came to North America, would come together.
"She happened to go to me to find something to do. After hearing about your situation, she insisted on coming with me to see..." The Black Emperor saw Carl's surprise and spread his hands.
"What, don't you welcome me?" the graceful woman curled her lips.
"How is that possible? It's my honor to come, Lord Betsie." Carl quickly denied.
As a core member of Hellfire Club, even if Carl's status is far inferior to the two in front of him, he will not have to bow down.
But women, who are particularly vengeful, are often the most unprovoked, especially women with strong power like the Black Queen in front of them, and they cannot be provoked.
He didn't want to be hated by this Black Queen for a trivial matter.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's find a place to eat. The things on the plane are so bad that I didn't even eat breakfast." The graceful woman suggested.
"Yes." The Black Emperor also nodded slightly.
"Here, my car is parked next to me-"
Of course, Carl had no objection and led the way for the two of them in front.
...
Afternoon.
When Raymond received a call from Carl, he drove alone to a park outside Richmond.
He was not afraid of Carl's tricks. If Hellfire Club did not even have this credibility, it would not have been able to stand until now.
Moreover, he has no deep hatred with Hellfire Club. Even if he weighs the pros and cons, the other party cannot give up the opportunity to turn enemies into friends.
Unless the talks collapse, that's another matter.
But even if he really didn't agree to turn against each other, Raymond didn't think he should be worried about himself. He was even ready to switch to Tao Baibai's personality and start killing immediately.
"Hmm? Three people?"
Raymond, who arrived at the agreed location, saw Carl from a distance.
At the same time, it was also noticed that Carl brought more than one person, in addition to the burly and inconspicuous man, there was also a graceful woman who looked about thirty years old.
At the same time, a prompt appeared in his mind:
"Ding Dong--"
"You met S-class 'villain' Kain Marco, Exploration value of 100"
...
"Ding Dong--"
