The Hero Association Shelters Vampires? (65k)

Chapter 490: The Heroes Association protects vampires? (6.5k)

"Well, what you said seems to make sense?"

Bang Gu groaned and nodded thoughtfully.

A bigger smile appeared on the female reporter's face. She was about to ask more questions when she heard Bang Gu let out a long sigh.

"It is indeed difficult for the elderly to find a job. I am also worried now that my old employer has become an old man and I don't know him anymore. I don't know if I can find the next employer."

It turns out that what he agreed with was that it was difficult for him to find a job.

"It's really hard for me to make money to support my family at such an old age."

The female reporter's face showed a cooperative expression of sympathy, "Only when you show up and speak out can you prove that human beings are irreplaceable. Using machines to take away people's jobs is a major failure of Z City's governance!"

"I didn't say that."

When Bang Gu heard this, he immediately waved his hands, his face full of doubts.

"You're such a strange reporter. If there were no robots, wouldn't you have no more topics to make up?"

"These are completely different things. You can find a new topic!"

"I see, then people who lose their jobs can't find new ones, right? I've learned a lot."

Bang Gu laughed, but there was no smile in his eyes. He just looked straight at the female reporter in front of him.

"Moreover, the entire New City Z was built by others, and all the jobs in City Z were provided by others. We should thank them for creating a lot of jobs, right? Instead of thanking them, we just accuse them. Is this right?"

The female reporter secretly clicked her tongue.

"Okay, let's change the topic. What do you think about the cameras on the streets of City Z now?"

The female reporter quickly changed the topic, trying to divert Banggu's attention without any explanation. She pointed at the cameras installed on the telephone poles and traffic lights on the roadside.

"So that's a camera? It's so small that I didn't notice it at all."

Banggu groaned, and then he noticed that there were so many cameras installed on both sides of the street. Other cities did not have such a high density of cameras, and they were too streamlined and miniaturized. They could be easily distinguished from other cities at a glance. The camera is completely different.

"In other words, the people behind the scenes already know that Old Man has come to Z City?"

Bang Gu's eyes drooped, and his expression became a little weird.

"Yes, don't you feel that your privacy rights have been violated?"

Seeing that Bang Gu looked strange, the female reporter suddenly became energetic.

"The people sitting behind those cameras can see you and monitor your status anytime and anywhere. It's really annoying, right?"

"Well, if you ask me if I'm annoying, that's really embarrassing. This camera can't still hear what we just said. That old man will be embarrassed."

Banggu's face turned slightly red, looking a little embarrassed.

The female reporter suddenly choked. Who asked you this?

"But if you want to ask if these cameras are good, I heard that the crime rate in City Z is now the lowest among all cities in mainland China. Could it be that these cameras are responsible for it?"

Banggu thought very seriously, as if he had some enlightenment.

"If so, that's really good. I hope the Heroes Association can also learn from Shueisha's practices and ensure the safety of the city!"

The female reporter was speechless.

I thought I met someone easy to handle, but I didn't expect my mind to spin so fast. This old man really doesn't look like an ordinary person. How can ordinary people be so calm when facing the camera.

Speaking of which, this old man looks a bit familiar...

The female reporter put away the microphone, turned around and left with her companions, and continued to look for the next target. It would be great if she could find herself who was laid off by the robot impact.

Bang Gu watched the female reporter leave, secretly shaking his head and sighing.

This female reporter clearly came with bad intentions. If she were an ordinary old man, she might have actually been brought in.

Who is she targeting?

It is said that in current Z City, whether it is economy, administration, media, or public services, they are all managed by Shueisha, or the Counter Moon Alliance consortium behind it. Just like China, the government is like a mascot here.

So you are really targeting Shueisha? Did you come here specifically to fabricate dirty information about Shueisha?

She said it was from the TV station in City B. Who controls the TV station in City B?

In other words, whose interests does Shueisha's existence offend?

Bang Gu had a vague answer in his mind, sighed secretly, and walked step by step towards the center of Z.

There is a thriving scene everywhere on the roadside, and even the smiles on people's faces are completely different from those in other cities. Whether it is the sanitation robots taking away workers' jobs, or the cameras on the streets, pedestrians It's as if they have been familiar with each other for a long time, and there is no strange color at all.

"This is the kind of smile you can have in a city without weirdos."

Bang Gu was filled with admiration. In just half a year, the city had been managed like this. He didn't know how to praise it, he just thought it was incredible.

"boom!"

At this time, a roar suddenly sounded on the roadside.

Banggu stopped and looked at a closed bank on the roadside, feeling speechless for a moment.

Did he praise too soon?

The roaring sound of the closed bank attracted the attention of many pedestrians. People gathered with doubts and took out their mobile phones in twos and threes.

Send it to Moments first.

The closed bank door was broken open with a bang, and a burly man wearing a horn cap walked out of the bank. He didn't even have a gun in his hand. He blasted open the bank door with just a pair of fleshy palms. The red eyes flashed with an evil aura as if there was no one around.

"Finally found the material, set up the camera quickly!"

Banggu heard a familiar voice and looked to the side, just in time to see the female reporter from before running over, urging her companions to quickly set up the camera.

Normally, Banggu would have praised them for their bravery, but at this moment, Banggu was very sure that they were definitely not here to report the truth.

Bang Gu felt a little hesitant.

It seems something is not right for him to take action now. At this time, Shueisha's heroes should be allowed to deal with this criminal, so as to reflect Shueisha's ability to respond quickly to crimes.

If he, a hero who belongs to the Hero Association, takes action and is photographed, the public will definitely accuse Shueisha of not responding well.

It would make Shueisha look very incompetent if the heroes belonging to the Hero Association should deal with the crime in their own base camp.

"Is this a bank robbery?"

"Isn't that true? I haven't seen any news about bank robbery in a few months."

"It's strange that there are still people in Z city who dare to rob a bank?"

Onlookers continued to gather and watched the man in the horn hat emerge from the bank carrying a large backpack. They couldn't help but look curious, and the surrounding area was quickly crowded with people eating melon.

Banggu wanted to keep these people away, but he couldn't come forward, so he felt embarrassed.

"Are the people of City Z so bold that they are not even afraid of criminals who tear steel with their hands?"

"Coming, coming!"

"It's JUMP!"

While Bang Gu was puzzled, the roar of the engine suddenly came from far away and came closer.

With the sound of breaking through the air, a black steel machine fell from the sky and landed in front of the bank gate, causing Bang Gu to cast a shocked look.

The steel machine was over three meters tall and looked as heavy as iron lumps. Its eyes flashed with green data, and the golden letters JUMP were inlaid with silver hooks of a stylus on its chest.

"Bank robbers, that's really rare."

The steel machine appeared in front of the bank gate, blocking the way of the man in the horn hat. Electronic light flashed in his eyes, and a strange inorganic sound came from his mouth.

"I have been born for so many days and have nearly ten thousand machines protecting the city. Among all the opponents I have encountered, you are the least promising."

Bang Gu opened his mouth in shock.

The robot is actually cursing!

"I'm Lord Niu Niu, the A-level felon who has a bounty on his head. I'm just a piece of junk. Watch me tear it apart for you in one go!"

The man in the horn hat was immediately furious when a machine insulted him. He waved his fist and rushed towards the robot.

Bang Gu tensed his muscles, planning to help if anything went wrong.

But the next moment, the steel machine raised its right index finger, and a bullet suddenly shot out of the finger tube, hitting the man in the horn hat in the thigh.

The man in the horn hat was startled, and then his body suddenly became weak and he fell limply to the ground.

"You, you don't follow martial ethics..."

"The president has said that in order to maintain law and order, we must first abandon the concept of 'maintaining law and order'."

The robot raised its feet and walked up to the man in the horn hat with a clanging sound, and picked him up from the ground.

"The president's words are very profound. I understand it with my superficial knowledge. For criminals like you, don't talk about martial ethics. Just kill you first."

"Wait! I'm a vampire!"

When he heard the words "kill him", the man in the horn hat suddenly changed his expression.

"I am a noble vampire! Even the Heroes Association will protect me. If you dare to kill me, the Heroes Association will not let you go! The heroes will not let you go!"

As soon as these words came out, Bang Gu frowned.

The Heroes Association protects vampires... How come this bad trend has spread to Z City?

"Hot knowledge, the Heroes Association is not as good as Shueisha."

The robot was unmoved and instead sneered.

"It's daytime now. Vampires who dare to come out will be exposed to death long ago. Don't you tell a realistic lie? But don't worry, in the face of human criminals, our Shueisha will usually hand it over to the government for trial, at least now. I won’t kill you.”

Several drones flew over with an iron cage hanging on them. The robots threw the immobile cow into the iron cage, and the drones escorted it to the government prison.

"JUMP, did you get another third-class achievement today?"

"JUMP, let's compete!"

The onlookers cheered and surrounded the robot. Some people ran to him with their mobile phones and tried to take a selfie.

The robot half squatted down so that its head was level with the person next to it, and at the same time stretched out its hand to gesture.

The others followed one by one and happily took photos with him.

Bang Gu breathed a sigh of relief, and his muscles relaxed.

I see, it seems that that is the combat phantom developed by Shueisha, which is said to be comparable to A-level high-ranking heroes.

They were used to maintain public order, and they arrived very quickly. They arrived in less than a minute after the bank incident happened.

It's really unimaginable security efficiency.

"No wonder the people here are so naive. It's probably because they are so well protected."

Bang Gu couldn't stop sighing in his heart.

In comparison, what is the Hero Association doing?

It's hard to say whether the man in the horn hat is a vampire. Bangu has never seen a real vampire. He doesn't know if vampires are as afraid of the sun as in the legend.

But he was just a prisoner with a bounty on his head. When he thought he might die, he blurted out the words "The Heroes Association will protect vampires"!

Is this reasonable?

A prisoner with a reward on his head actually said such a thing?

The Heroes Association is far from what it was when it was first established.

The current Heroes Association is full of corruption, and the frivolous atmosphere is as unbearable as being in a stinking cesspool.

The female reporter and her companions watching this scene were speechless for a long time.

"If this is broadcast, won't it have a positive effect?"

The companion pointed at the robot mingling with the people and said with a bitter expression.

"We are here to find dirty information, right? Is this really good?"

"What are you afraid of? Can't you just change your mind?"

The female reporter's face turned grim and she broke the jar and said.

"Just say Shueisha forced the robots to work!"

companion:"……"

Banggu: "..."

If it were to be broadcast like this, the effect of the program would definitely explode, so Banggu decided to ignore these two people.

"Mr. Silver Fang."

The crowd who joined in the fun finally dispersed, and the robot JUMP straightened up and looked towards Bang Gu.

"Excuse me, why do you come to Z city?"

"Oh, Mr. JUMP."

Bang Gu couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the robot taking the initiative to talk to him.

A reporter didn't recognize her, but a robot did.

Although it is true that he has hardly engaged in heroic activities in the past few months.

"I would like to meet the president of your company. Is it such an honor?"

"Allow me to explain."

The electronic light in the robot JUMP's eyes flashed for a while, and within a minute, he lowered his head and looked at Bang Gu as if he had received a response.

"The president has agreed to meet you. I'm here to show you the way. Please go this way."

It's almost like a real person, and the speed of replying to messages is so fast.

Call it artificial intelligence, this.

The technology Shueisha possesses is not on the same level as the Heroes Association.

Banggu sighed like he didn't know how many times today.

I don’t know why, but there are mixed reviews on the development of City Z on the Internet. Some go out of their way to praise the development of City Z, while others go to great lengths to discredit City Z.

If you didn’t come there in person, you wouldn’t know how good this city has become.

And all of this is thanks to Shueisha.

In other words, it was the president of Shueisha, the boy who single-handedly destroyed the Weird Association and was known as "The Strongest Man on Earth".

In the center of Z, the huge crater can be described as a landmark attraction. People come here every day to check in. Shueisha’s headquarters is located behind the crater. More than a dozen skyscrapers rise into the sky, guarding the over 300-meter-high central Building, with huge S's embedded on both sides of the building, it is extremely conspicuous on the tallest building in Z city.

On the top floor of the Central Building, Bang Gu took the elevator under the guidance of the front desk. As soon as he arrived here, he saw a tall and straight young man with a strong breath coming up to him.

He looks to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, with white hair and red eyes that are very eye-catching. He wears trousers on the lower body and a naked upper body. The muscles on his body are clearly defined but not bloated. He seems to contain extremely powerful explosive power. If he doesn't move, he will erupt like a volcano. General.

There was still a touch of moisture in his hair, as if he had just come out of a shower.

Bang Gu's old eyes narrowed slightly.

"This boy is much stronger than he was six months ago!"

Bang Gu could tell at a glance that the white-haired boy's posture was much more casual than when they met half a year ago. It was proof of his transcendence. The casual posture seemed full of flaws, but it gave Bang Gu a feeling of suffocation. There is a sense of oppression, as if if you attack, you will be doomed.

Although he couldn't tell from the rest, Bang Gu was sure that this young man must have made a huge breakthrough in his martial arts realm!

"Silver Fang, this is a rare visitor."

The white-haired boy came towards him with a slight smile on his face, neither distant nor enthusiastic.

Bang Gu smiled kindly and waved his hand calmly.

"Just call me Banggu as you like. In front of you, the strongest man in the world, I don't dare to be arrogant."

"It's disrespectful."

Roy didn't care and nodded lightly.

"Banggu, you are one of the pillars of the Hero Association, but you entered Shueisha's headquarters openly. Are you not worried that the people of the Hero Association will find out and hold you accountable?"

"Haha, I've been in the Heroes Association for so long, and I've almost had enough."

Bang Gu laughed loudly after hearing this, with bitterness in his eyes.

"Even if I don't come to the headquarters of the English Society, I originally planned to withdraw from the Heroes Association. If I am held accountable for this, I will take advantage of the situation and withdraw."

"Are you planning to retire?"

When Roy heard this, he raised his brows and looked at Bang Gu with a little surprise.

If he remembered correctly, Bang Gu did withdraw from the Heroes Association in the later stages of the original work, but that was after the Hungry Wolf incident.

At this point in time, Hungry Wolf still doesn't know where he is. How could Bang Gu have the idea of ​​quitting the Heroes Association?

"That's right."

Bang Gu admitted it calmly, with a dark cloud on his face for some reason.

"The current Heroes Association is far from the hero organization that I hoped for. It is far from being a heroic organization anymore. From top to bottom, everyone is rotten to the extreme..."

Banggu is a good old man.

For him to say such things, has the Hero Association actually reached that level?

Roy was a little surprised. He had been busy looking for traces of the patron world in the past six months, and basically had no care for the Heroes Association.

Although he knows that due to Shueisha's exclusion, the Heroes Association has become worse than before. Not only has the right to deal with visitors from other worlds been taken away by Shueisha, but many time travel heroes have also left the Heroes Association and joined Shueisha, but Slim A dead camel is bigger than a horse. The original foundation of the Heroes Association is still there. No matter how many low-level heroes are lost, as long as the most critical S-class heroes do not leave, it means that the Heroes Association is far from collapse.

In the past six months, among the S-class heroes in the Hero Association, only Red Ponytail has withdrawn.

But the red ponytail is not originally the combat power that the Hero Association should have. Except for her, uh, him, none of the S-class combat power that originally belonged to the Hero Association is missing.

Now Banggu is planning to withdraw from the Heroes Association, representing the S-class heroes who originally belonged to the Heroes Association. The heroes who are the pillars of the association are finally starting to quit the wave?

This may be the beginning of the collapse of the Heroes Association.

"It's Shueisha, I'm very interested!"

Bang Gu changed the topic, and an interesting smile appeared on his old face.

"If I want to buy a house in City Z, how much will it cost?"

"Do you want to come to Z city to live your retirement life?"

"Haha, seeing the current state of Z City, I'm very excited too!"

Bang Gu laughed loudly, then smiled bitterly.

"Actually, the old man was originally from City Z and lived in a dojo outside the city. However, the Monster Association appeared and the dojo was destroyed, so he moved to the Heroes Association and was stationed at the Y City branch. This time he is returning to his roots."

"If you join Shueisha, I can give you a spacious house that can be used as a dojo for free."

Roy squinted his eyes and glanced at Bang Gu, with a faint smile on his face.

"Would you like to think about it?"

"so good?"

Bang Gu looked surprised and said curiously.

"The Heroes Association only lets us live in the houses they built for free, and we also have to serve as free guards for the Heroes Association. Shueisha actually gives away real estate to the heroes for free?"

"Every one of Shueisha's heroes has a house, but few of them live in it."

Roy said nonchalantly.

Shueisha has a base building in every city. The female warriors of the Magic Defense Team, the girls in his harem, and some time-travel heroes who later joined. Although everyone has a house in the local city, they basically live there. In the base building, even the likes of Uzen Kyoka, Claudia, and Zenin Maki rarely live in the base building. Most of the time they go back to the Z City headquarters building to spend pleasant nights with Roy.

"If you don't want to join, since you're a nice person, I can give you half the price."

Roy waved a space window and threw it in front of Banggu.

The artificial intelligence butler Jarvis has automatically summarized the housing price list of City Z, allowing Banggu to understand it clearly at a glance.

“Is it so easy for sponsors to release money?”

Bang Gu marveled at Shueisha's technology and asked with a frown.

“Tell the sponsors to go away.”

Roy twitched his lips and said nonchalantly.

"I have the final say on Shueisha, not capital."

"This is really awesome."

Bang Gu was filled with admiration.

All the funds of the Hero Association are provided by sponsors, which causes the association to be restricted by sponsors from time to time. One sponsor went on a trip and directly named S-class heroes to be his guards. The Hero Association didn't even dare to send S-class heroes. It's past.

In contrast, Roy has Shueisha's power completely in his hands, so that he can do what he wants to the greatest extent.

"I will seriously consider it."

Banggu thought about what he saw and heard when he came to Z city today, and he was very moved, so he added another sentence.

"Shueisha is indeed much better than I imagined. If I have nowhere to go, I will bother President Roy again."

Bang Gu came to Z City this time just to visit Shueisha, a new hero organization, and see how strong it is with the Heroes Association. If Shueisha and the Heroes Association are the same, he will have no choice but to go into seclusion in despair and concentrate on opening a dojo. .

But he didn't expect that Shueisha was far more powerful than he imagined. Now he could safely withdraw from the Heroes Association and return to Z City to settle down.

Joining Shueisha was a good choice for him.

The housing prices in City Z are indeed not high. This is the result of Roy's intentional control. Shueisha does not need to rely on real estate to make money, but Banggu's family was destroyed, and most of his life savings were buried under the rubble.

He really didn't have that much money to buy such a spacious house as a dojo.

Moreover, within Shueisha's sphere of influence, there are a large number of combat phantoms to protect ordinary people. Ordinary criminals and weirdos do not need them to take action at all. Only when there are powerful weirdos that even phantoms cannot defeat, will powerful heroes be needed to step forward. , which means that he is very leisurely and can spend more time on the dojo.

No matter how you think about it, Shueisha is a far better and more suitable organization than the Hero Association.

Bang was reassured after getting Roy's promise. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he should join Shueisha immediately. He quickly said goodbye to Roy, left Shueisha headquarters, and rushed to the headquarters of the Hero Association in City A.

Roy stood in front of the huge French window. The top floor of the Central Building was his private residence. It was not only a place for him and the girls to have a pleasant night, but also a world passage connected to Fuyuki City. Normally, no one would come up without permission.

He looked at the bustling metropolis under his feet, but his heart was lost in thought.
