American Comics: BOSS Invasion
#330 - Unexpected Proposal
The singing continued, the girl singing with great emotion and sincerity.
She attracted everyone's attention, who listened with smiles and rapt attention, their eyes filled with admiration.
In the entire hall, the only two who remained unmoved were the gigantic Juggernaut and the youthful-looking Qi Shan sitting beside him.
"She is my daughter! Daisy. At the age of 16, she suddenly awakened her mutant ability. Through her singing, she can subtly create a direct illusion for the audience, allowing them to experience the feelings of the characters in the illusion with 100% accuracy, leaving a lasting impression."
A hint of tenderness flashed in Juggernaut's eyes.
"I originally wanted to name her 'Songstress,' but she insisted on calling herself 'Illusion Master.' That child simply doesn't know that her insignificant ability is not even a fraction of what a true Illusion Master can do."
Qi Shan remained noncommittal.
"If I remember correctly, although you often associate with mutant schemers and criminals,
you have always loathed mutants from the bottom of your heart because of Professor X. Why the sudden change..."
When Qi Shan mentioned Professor X, Juggernaut clenched his fist violently, and a red light was about to burst out. Qi Shan reacted quickly and slapped it down, feeling an extremely strong energy surge into his palm. A massive amount of golden energy, like a dam bursting, rushed into the energy sea within his body.
Qi Shan could even clearly feel that the space within his body had expanded by several kilometers in radius under the impact of this energy.
Qi Shan narrowed his eyes slightly and retracted his palm without leaving a trace.
The red light in Juggernaut's eyes gradually faded. He was silent for a moment, glanced at Qi Shan, and then said, "Because of my daughter!"
Juggernaut didn't say it explicitly, but Qi Shan already understood.
"The more I am eroded, the stronger my power becomes. In the darkness, I can even sense some other things."
Juggernaut said, "For example, I can now feel that you pose a very great threat to me, even greater than Wolverine."
Qi Shan remained calm on the surface, but he suddenly understood in his heart.
So, this is the main reason he sought me out.
"Currently, there are only two core members of the Hellfire Club, my daughter and I. The remaining 14 positions are all vacant."
Qi Shan waved his hand: "You should know that these things are meaningless to me!"
"Even the position of White King?" Juggernaut asked seriously.
Qi Shan was surprised: "You're paying such a high price. What do you want to get from me?"
"An opportunity!"
Seeing that Qi Shan didn't speak, Juggernaut added: "I can barely suppress the power of Cyttorak. Before I am completely eroded into a true monster, I want to take revenge!
The Hellfire Club has a vast influence. The status of a core member will bring you unimaginable assistance, whether it's confidential research data, funds, materials, or minerals.
As long as you ask, the Hellfire Club will get it done in the shortest amount of time.
I've said what I needed to say. Now it's your turn to make a choice!"
"What if I don't agree?" Qi Shan asked sideways.
Juggernaut was expressionless.
"Then I will tear you and Wolverine to pieces before I fight Hulk to the death!"
Hulk?
Qi Shan's eyes widened. This plane even has the Hulk?
What the hell kind of plane is this?
Qi Shan glanced at Juggernaut and said, "Although I would like to see it, such generous conditions are really hard for me to refuse!
Okay, I promise to take your daughter to a peaceful universe!"
"It doesn't need to be peaceful, just exciting enough!" Juggernaut said.
Qi Shan shrugged: "Okay, I'll try my best!"
"Thank you!"
Juggernaut slowly stood up: "Later, I will have someone discuss the details with you. Now, please excuse me!"
"Please do!" Qi Shan smiled and raised his hand.
Juggernaut nodded and turned to leave.
His huge figure, like a wall, should have been the most eye-catching thing.
But the men and women in the hall were all staring straight at the girl on the stage, as if they were mesmerized, and didn't even see Juggernaut leaving.
Qi Shan looked around and was surprised to find that Wolverine was also holding a wine bottle in his hand, staring unblinkingly at the girl.
In just a few minutes, even Wolverine had fallen for it?
It seems that her ability is quite interesting.
After sitting for a while, the girl finished singing, and enthusiastic applause rang out in the hall.
Amidst the cheers, the girl smiled reservedly, but her eyes were subtly hooking onto Qi Shan.
Qi Shan smiled faintly, got up, and walked out.
He casually took out an in-ear Bluetooth headset and gently inserted it into his ear.
"Alice!"
"Boss, what are your orders!"
Alice is a product of Nen ability, and there is an essential difference between her and artificial intelligence composed of electronic programs.
Wherever Nen ability exists, Alice can appear without relying on the network.
"Search for information about Hulk. I want to know how the Hulk and the Juggernaut became enemies?"
"Understood, please wait!"
Qi Shan stood by the railing, his left hand on the wooden handrail, and his right hand holding a cigar, watching the sunset over the sea in the distance, recalling the sudden conversation with Juggernaut.
Qi Shan suddenly felt a little dumbfounded about this sudden agreement.
After more than 300 chapters, is this when I finally get the protagonist treatment?
"Would you like a glass of white wine? It's this year's Riesling. I found three top winemakers. It takes three months to make after drinking too much. It tastes very good."
A familiar voice came from behind. The singing girl was holding two glasses of white wine and walked up to Qi Shan.
Qi Shan looked her up and down, casually took it, and thanked her softly.
"It's the first time I've seen my dad talk to someone for so long."
"What? Doesn't your father often chat with me?"
"It was okay when I was little, but it's been getting worse and worse in recent years. He even locks himself in the basement for months at a time!"
The girl gently stroked her hair and smiled sweetly: "My name is Daisy."
"Mike!"
The two shook hands briefly.
"So, did you agree to my dad's proposal?"
Qi Shan raised his eyebrows: "You know about this?"
"Of course. Since I was 16, he has never hidden anything from me!" Daisy said.
"So, you agree with this too?"
"Of course, provided you can really travel through the universe." Daisy spread her hands: "This universe is too boring. I yearn for an exciting life, for the days when the X-Men were active. A peaceful life is like a stagnant pool of water. I feel like I'm suffocating."
Qi Shan was speechless.
