The Savior of American Comics? I'm the Subspace Evil God!

Chapter 159 Chapter 234 Chapter 235 [Dragon Soul] and [Dragon Bone]

After Carl and Ancient One reached a new strategic consensus, Ancient One turned a blind eye to Carl's shameless behavior of arbitrarily ordering mages to provide him with "door opening service".

However, in order not to cause public outrage among the mages of Kamar-Taj.

This bald guy specifically chose Wanda as the person to open the door.

In this way, even if other mages have opinions in their hearts, they have nothing to say.

After all, everyone knows that Wanda was sent to Kamar-Taj by the devil of this dimension himself!

The relationship between the two naturally needs no further explanation.

In contrast, Carl's attitude towards this matter is relatively pure. He does not have as many concerns as Ancient One.

Because for him, it doesn't matter who the wizard is who opens the door, as long as the goal is achieved.

Of course... it would be even better if Wanda opened the door!
This way he can tease this innocent love-minded girl whenever he wants.

Looking at Wanda's little hands waving non-stop before closing the portal, and the shy yet slightly reluctant expression on her pretty face.

Even though Carl's heart was as hard as a rock, he couldn't help but feel a wonderful heartbeat.

Who could have imagined that this sour smell of love... could be so intoxicating!!

There is also the joy of the "cultivation system", which is something that ordinary people cannot even experience.

"Selina, how is the acquisition of the [Rand Group] going?"

Carl asked as he walked into the building.

"Boss, I've already taken care of all the acquisition-related matters last night."

Selina quietly withdrew her gaze from where Wanda disappeared, and deliberately lagged half a body length behind her boss. She took small steps and reported briskly:
"Now, the control of the [Rand Corporation] has been transferred from Harold Meacham and his son to the [Subspace Corporation]."

Just last night, Selina carried Mrs. Gao's head and went straight to Harold Meacham, who was being held under house arrest in an apartment attic by the Hand.

The other party had cancer many years ago, so he reached a deal with Madam Gao. After being successfully resurrected by [Dragon Bone], he officially became a vassal of [The Hand].

Then, with the help of the Hand, he successfully killed Danny Rand's parents and forcibly took over Rand Industries.

Although Harold Meacham has been imprisoned in this apartment for many years, under the absolute control of the Hand.

But he is still the actual controller of [Rand Industries].

On weekdays, he can manage the company well by simply giving instructions to his son Ward Meacham over the phone.

Selina, whose style of doing things was deeply influenced by Carl, didn't waste any time when they met and directly threw Mrs. Gao's head in front of Harold Meacham.

Directly giving the other party two choices.

First, hand over the control of [Rand Industries] obediently, and then you can leave [New York] alive with the wealth you have obtained through embezzlement over the years!
Second, I will kill your entire family first, and then acquire [Rand Industries Group]!
Selina believed that as long as the other person was smart, he would know how to choose.

And the reality was just as she expected.

Harold Meacham, who was almost scared to death, chose the first option without hesitation.

He had witnessed the methods used by Madam Gao and the Hand with his own eyes.

Even if someone is a billionaire, once he becomes their target, they can take his life in minutes.

But now, even Mrs. Gao has fallen into the hands of the woman in front of him. How could Harold Meacham have the courage to refuse?

What's more, the [Rand Industries] did not originally belong to him; he stole it through dirty means.

The dividends he received over the years alone are enough for him and his two children to spend the rest of their lives lavishly.

The woman in front of them was willing to let them leave safely, which was obviously the best outcome.

So...

Selina successfully took actual control of the Rand Industries Group without any effort.

"Well done, thank you for your hard work."

Carl nodded in satisfaction.

In fact, he asked Selina to "acquire" [Rand Industries], which was purely a matter of taking advantage of the situation! !
Because this [Financial Building] happens to be the property of [Rand Industrial Group].

Although Rand Industries is just a "small company" with a market value of less than 10 billion US dollars, it is nothing to Carl, who now owns a trillion-dollar business empire.

But after all, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat!
What's more, Rand Industries' business across the United States involves many fields such as real estate, oil, pharmaceuticals, and agricultural machinery.

After the completion of the annexation, the speed of the [Subspace Group]'s external expansion in these areas can be effectively accelerated.

So…why not do it?

Soon, Carl and his group arrived at the bottom floor of the [Financial Building], the space where the [Dragon Bone] was sealed.

Selina pointed to the "sealed wall" engraved with mysterious runes that blocked everyone's way and explained softly:
"Boss, by reading Madam Gao's blood, I learned that this sealing wall was formed by the previous generation of Iron Fist, using a mysterious power called Qi. Ordinary means are simply incapable of destroying it."

"And to remove the seal on this wall, you must rely on the same power."

"The Hand was previously unable to capture the current Iron Fist alive, which is why they haven't been able to retrieve the Dragon Bones sealed within."

Carl didn't say much after hearing this, just nodded slightly, then tentatively stretched out a hand and pressed it on the "Sealed Wall".

?

Seeing that the system had no response at all, Carl shook his head in disappointment.

It seems that the so-called "power of the iron fist" is just that, and it doesn't even meet the standard of being swallowed by the [subspace].

However, in this case, I'm afraid we can only rely on the power of the "dragon soul" to open this "sealed wall".

Think of this.

Carl slowly raised his right arm, and a dragon soul that was invisible to the naked eye and was tied with heavy shackles formed by [psychic energy] was directly released from the [subspace].

Although Karl did not return to the [Subspace] in person during this period.

But after formulating the "Dual Development Plan of the Real World and the [Subspace]", he has been maintaining close communication with the four vendors.

This will help Carl make more accurate judgments about the development of events and the progress of his plans, allowing him to react and make arrangements in advance, maximizing his own interests!
So after Spider-Gwen killed Iron Fist and successfully plundered the dragon soul of Shou Lao, Khorne reported the news to Karl.

Of course, there's also the [Spirit of Vengeance] I just harvested last night...

However, compared to the transformable Spirit of Vengeance, Carl wasn't particularly impressed by this supposedly sacred beast from Lunkun. The reason was simply that this "dragon" was vastly different from the image of a dragon he remembered from Chinese civilization.

"Shou Lao" has a long body similar to that of the Chinese dragon and huge wings of the Western dragon. The overall appearance is neither sacred nor solemn, but rather has a somewhat evil temperament!
In Carl's opinion, this is a typical "neither fish nor fowl".

I guess some people deliberately made it up to disgust people, so naturally he won't like it.

If it was the image of a sacred oriental dragon, perhaps Carl would "wear" it on his body and use it personally.

Now, let’s just treat it as a special reward and give it to the top seller of this month.

This poor dragon soul didn't know that it was precisely because of the difference in appearance that it failed to gain the favor of the God of Destiny and eventually became a great demon in the [Subspace]!
After the dragon soul appeared, it immediately surrounded Carl's fist like an obedient little cutie, and instantly formed the same "radiant" magnificent scene as when [Iron Fist] used its ultimate move.

no way.

Because there is no concept of time in the [subspace].

So even though it seemed to the outside world that only one night had passed.

But in fact, for this dragon head spirit, it may have been several centuries.

Although it originally had an unruly character, it had long been subdued by Khorne in the [Warp].

Dragon Soul said: (╥╯^╰╥) Woohoo, that bastard Khorne was really too cruel, I can't help but accept it~~
"Everyone, step back."

Carl gave an order, then swung his "flash" fist and slammed it hard on the "sealed wall".

boom--

Accompanied by a loud bang, the entire underground space began to shake violently.

The thick wall that even a bomb could not blow up shattered like glass in a flash of dazzling light.

The tremors soon stopped, leaving only rustling dust drifting down from the cracks in the stone wall above everyone's heads.

Affected by the energy fluctuation just now.

With the [Financial Building] as the center, all buildings and public facilities using electricity within a radius of 5 kilometers suffered a short circuit and power outage at that moment.

Power was not restored until the backup generator started up.

As the light came back on, the dark and huge forbidden space that was originally hidden behind the "Sealed Wall" gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.

It turned out to be a huge dragon skeleton!

It is also the only complete dragon bone left outside of Kunlun.

Ow—

The dragon soul that was perched on Carl's hand, Zhang Zi, let out a shrill wail, as if lamenting the tragic fate of its kind.

But the next second, it was sent back to the [subspace] by Carl.

Nourishes—

Carl slowly rose into the air, then used his Cyclops to remove a small piece of scrap from the top of the skeleton. After landing, he handed it to Samuel Stern and said:
"Doctor, this is the Dragon Bone, which has always been regarded as a sacred object by the Hand and can resurrect the dead."

"So I hope you can use this as a research subject and launch a brand new experimental project—utilizing the immense life energy contained within the Dragon Bone to develop a Resurrection Potion that can quickly take effect without requiring complex rituals or the catalysis of special blood, allowing dead soldiers to be reborn in a short period of time!"

That’s right, the reason why Carl came here in person this time was for these [dragon bones] that could bring people back to life.

If we don’t take good things like this back to study and develop them properly, wouldn’t that be a waste of resources?
If the [Resurrection Potion] can be successfully developed as Carl expected, then not only can the casualty rate of each [Thunder Warrior Regiment] be infinitely close to 0 in future wars, but it can also provide a solid double insurance for the safety of the core and important members under Carl's command.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I never thought this magical substance could actually revive the dead?"

Upon hearing this, Samuel Stern's eyes lit up as he examined the Dragon Bone in his hand. "Just hearing your description, Boss, I can't wait to start researching it..."

He is truly a research maniac!
Carl saw that Samuel Stern's face did not show any displeasure or resistance at being assigned a new task, but instead showed that morbid obsession again, so he knew that this guy must be addicted to it again.

So he immediately turned to Selina and ordered: "Send someone over to intercept some samples for Dr. Stern's research, and we can slowly dig up the rest..."

"This [Dragon Bone] is connected to the earth veins of [New York], so you must not rush during the mining process, and you must not use violent means to dig, otherwise it is likely to cause a large-scale collapse."

Before leaving, Carl specially left two first-term Thunder Warriors here to guard, plus the ten Death Walkers arranged by Selina. Even if the enemy sent an army to grab these [Dragon Bones], they would definitely not be able to take this place in a short time.

……

【Water Group】.

The rehearsal scene of the Motherland’s birthday party.

"Happy...birthday to you, and I wish you..."

Forced to sing on stage, Xingguang mechanically repeated the lyrics with a blank expression, which displeased the countryman beside her and she quickly interrupted, saying:

"Listen, you can't sing like that. I need you to sing it with a smile on your face and from the heart... with the same tone that Marilyn Monroe sang Happy Birthday to JFK, and to show that you're in the right mood for the party."

"I'm warning you, this is my birthday party. No matter how fucking unhappy you are, you have to perform well... Otherwise, I'll let you know how serious the consequences will be."

Faced with the pressure from her countrymen, Xingguang finally couldn't stand it anymore and retorted righteously: "It seems that I need to make it clear. I know that you don't care whether I can sing this song well or not.
You just want to take this opportunity to make me behave like a puppet in front of everyone."

"I understand. You're very unhappy about the company appointing me as the new 'co-captain,' but that's precisely why I won't do as you say!"

The smile on Homelander's face gradually faded, and he said in a seemingly relaxed tone, "I don't think this is a good idea... You'd better do as I just said and continue singing properly."

But just as the two were arguing.

Suddenly, a stern voice came from the audience below, "Since Xingguang doesn't want to sing, you have no right to force her to sing!"

A beam of light came on, shining on CEO Stan Edgar, who slowly spoke:
"According to the latest opinion polls, approximately 76% of potential viewers will make time to watch the show tonight, all because they want to see the stars perform."

"And you... less than half of you said you might watch the replay tomorrow or later."

"So, Starlight can decide for herself whether to sing or not!!"

When Xingguang on the stage heard this, a look of joy suddenly appeared on his face, and he subconsciously straightened his chest.

Homelander was speechless for a moment and wanted to lose his temper, but because of the power in Stan Edgar's hands, he was afraid that the other party would marginalize him again and reduce his exposure, so he had to hold it back.

After a moment, he angrily uttered, "How about I leave?"

"Stan, have you forgotten whose birthday party this is?!"
