The world is always in the dark current.

When Tony was trying to deal with the cancer of the consortium. These consortia are not idle.

They were the ones who did it to Tony first, so no matter how stupid they were, this group couldn't stop when they only launched a wave of public opinion offensive. Like Tony, they're also making a big move. And the breakthrough direction of this action is similar to Tony's.

Of course, they're not going to fight the idea of the mutants. Not to mention that mutants have always been at odds with them, the existence behind the mutants alone is enough to discourage these people.

The cooperation they seek is based on maintaining their own domination of the world. If, because of cooperation, one being is completely above them. That's something they absolutely can't accept.

So, under the intention of this cooperation, they found another special existence. A being that can even restrain the gods.

Smith. Week! Earth Watcher. The most powerful superhero that the human world has ever had. is also an unruly guy who does not merge with the world at all. Just from what he did on Modi's talk show, most people can dismiss his favor.

And it is also from his behavior, if you take this as a handle, then even if he has countless merits for saving people, it is inevitable that he will be completely drowned by public opinion with saliva. But, curiously, things didn't go in that direction. But inexplicably, everything gradually calmed down.

All the topics about him have been directed to the invasion and plundering of the year, and all the contradictions have been deliberately pushed to those museums. As Smith ignited this keg of dynamite. Not only did Zhou not receive the attention of public opinion, but even those ordinary people who were forcibly suppressed by him with his strength were mostly tight-lipped about this matter. Including Modi, who suffered the hardest blow in his career because of this incident, never talked about Smith in front of people. Thing of the week.

It feels like there's a powerful force that's forcing everything down.

What would do that? A lot of people are thinking about this on their minds, including Smith. Zhou himself. In his original vision, this was supposed to be an arrangement made by the government to control the fluctuation of public opinion and protect the image of the so-called superheroes. But that doesn't seem to be the case now.

Sitting in a hotel in downtown Los Angeles, Smith. Zhou looked at an invitation card placed in front of him. He smiled a little playfully.

This is a very special invitation. There is no superfluous embellishment on the all-white envelope, only the name of the recipient, and a rare wax seal letter.

This is something that only European aristocratic families like to play, because the wax seal often leaves their family name with a special ring. Of course, there are not many people who use it like this in modern society. Because most of the so-called nobles in the past have fallen into a miserable situation. If you use this kind of sassy way, it will not have more effect than to lose face. And the aristocracy is precisely the most face-saving group of creatures. So they'd rather give up this way than make that choice lightly.

However, such a custom has been inherited by some upper-class American families with a long history. Although they fought for inheritance, the descendants of these colonists and prisoners of the United States could not be the opponent of those European aristocrats at all. But in terms of heritage and strength, the Americans have thrown these historical garbage in Europe more than one street away. And under such a premise, using this means to show one's identity is much more stylish than those nouveau riche who use gold as invitations.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for this, and that is that you can recognize which family the seal represents. This is why this method is gradually being abandoned. After all, you go to deliver a letter or invitation, and you put your own stamp on it. As a result, people can't understand your family logo, and they throw it away as junk letters, which is really embarrassing.

However, since he dared to send such an invitation to Smith. In front of Zhou, it is obvious that the sender has no worries about this at all. After all, it is the famous Morgan, and Morgan's surname will definitely be able to guess his identity.

And in contrast to such an identity, Smith. Zhou cared more about the Morgan family's intention to invite him.

You know, the current Morgan family is not the Morgan of the past. After the death of Peabody, the founder of the Morgan Empire, the Morgan Empire inevitably went from being a behemoth that controlled a quarter of the companies in the United States to a river. Neither the U.S. government nor any other conglomerate will tolerate the existence of such a monster that monopolizes the entire financial sector of the United States. So almost inevitably, the Morgan consortium fell into a situation of splitting and reorganizing.

Of course, the Morgan consortium after the reorganization and split is still a behemoth, one of the masters of this world. But unlike the previous situation in which the Morgan family was completely in control, it has become an aggregate of interests controlled by more people, and it is no longer the territory of the Morgan family alone.

But that doesn't mean the Morgan family is in decline. In fact, Morgan's descendants have always been tied to the Morgan consortium. Although they are no longer the principals of the consortium, they are definitely one of the representative figures of the entire Morgan consortium. It can be said that Smith. The invitation in front of Zhou is not so much an invitation from the Morgan family as a temptation by the entire Morgan consortium.

And what do they want to try? This question really makes Smith. Zhou's curiosity inevitably churned. He really wanted to know the answer, so he sat down and waited for the person to pick him up.

The invitation only said that the Morgan family wanted to invite him to dinner. Neither the time nor the specific place was said. It seems very irresponsible, but the people of the Morgan family should not be so stupid. So you should know that they should have arranged everything.

And just like he thought. It was just five o'clock when there was a knock on the door outside his room. And after opening the door, Smith. Zhou immediately saw a well-dressed middle-aged man who looked like he was well-educated standing there, bowing his body respectfully in front of him.

"Mr. Zhou. I'm the one sent by Mr. Morgan to invite you to dinner. Do you have time now? ”

They have already come to the door and asked if they have time, which is obviously with some kind of compulsion. However, the middle-aged man's attitude was gentle and very cultivated, but to some extent it greatly weakened the compulsion in his words. Plus Smith. Zhou has a certain curiosity in this matter. So he just ignored these irrelevant things and nodded at him.

"Of course, we can go now!"

"Please follow me!" He glanced at Smith. Zhou's dress confirmed that there was nothing inappropriate about the clothes on his body. The middle-aged man waved away a waiter carrying a dust bag next to him, and faced Smith. Zhou made an inviting gesture. And following the guidance of this middle-aged man, Smith. Zhou strode downstairs without any scruples.

His power makes it impossible for him to fear any of the beings in this world. So naturally, even the famous Morgan family could not let him have any gains and losses at this time. He strolled around leisurely, even taking in his surroundings with great interest. And after looking at it like this, he immediately realized what the strength of the consortium was.

The hotel where he was temporarily staying was a very famous five-star hotel. Business is booming, and there are usually a lot of guests staying at the hotel. It's almost impossible to have a corridor where there are no people. And now the situation is that from Smith. The section from Zhou's floor to the hall was completely emptied. Except for the attendants who stood on both sides of the uniform system, there was not a single idle person. Obviously, they have been leveled by the Morgan family with a magical thing.

And it seems that this is not grand enough. The Morgan family also specially used the softest Persian carpet to greet Smith. This part of the week was re-paved.

By the touch of his feet alone, Smith. Zhou can feel that this is the best alpaca wool carpet. Known for their soft texture, vivid textures, and precious metals, this carpet is a luxury item that the average wealthy person would only be willing to use in the most private places like the study. And now, hundreds of meters of the road are covered with such carpets. In addition to being flattered, all that's left is the jaw-dropping extravagance and luxury.

Of course, this is a feeling that only ordinary people have. Like Smith. Zhou, an old ghost who has enjoyed all the prosperity in the world, will not be moved by these things. However, he did understand the Morgan family's intentions. They were clearly using this as a way to show him what they were capable of. The power of money!

This made Smith. Zhou secretly sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he didn't have any change in his expression. This made the middle-aged man who had been observing him secretly anxious. However, he still maintained his demeanor and upbringing, leading Smith unhurriedly. Zhou sat in a custom-made extended Lincoln, and personally sat in the driver's seat, taking him and four or five luxury cars that drove away from the city.

Los Angeles is a big city, and no amount of luxury cars are surprising. It's just that it's obviously rare to take a luxury car to drive the road and escort a more luxurious Lincoln like now.

In this regard, Smith. Zhou immediately smiled slightly, and then asked the middle-aged man driving in front of him.

"I want to ask, does your master always hug each other like this?"
