I, the motherland, do whatever I want

High in the sky, the wind howled.

Azu stared in the direction of Manhattan below and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He saw a group of police sneaking up to the Arc de Triomphe in Manhattan, using buildings, cars, green belts and other obstacles as cover to approach quietly.

Just next to the Kesch Gate, there was a metal cylinder installed on the ground. When Jeff demonstrated the 'Earthshaker' before, Azu saw these cylinders installed in different corners of Manhattan vibrating.

It was they who released the shock wave, creating a small earthquake.

Azu glanced at the 'Raptor' armor on guard at the Kaishi Gate, chuckled and said, "It seems that these devices were discovered using the city's surveillance."

"Want to try to dismantle these devices before negotiating so that you can take the initiative?"

"They should know that this is not an easy task, right?"

Azu shook his head: "Those white-skinned pigs shouldn't be that stupid. If they were really that stupid, the Federation would have been overthrown several times."

"In other words, this may be a smoke bomb, used to confuse the opponent."

"So, they plan to rescue Arnold?"

"This is not easy. Even if the most elite troops are dispatched, they should not be able to match those armors."

Azu patted his forehead lightly: "It seems that old man Edgar has already cooperated with the Federation."

"Edgar is an old fox. He can't take a bite of just any meat."

"What did the Federation throw out, sharing the 'Zero' armor technology?"

"Probably not enough."

"Let metahumans enter the military?"

Azu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at the Empire State Building.

His eyes penetrated the building and saw a familiar figure.

Maeve!

She is now making her way up the stairs to the top floor, deftly avoiding all surveillance.

Azu narrowed his eyes: "Edgar, you reached out your hand again."

He quietly wrote down the account, and then looked at the Empire State Building. He saw Maeve quickly climbing up the fire escape and soon reached the top floor of the building.

At this time, Maeve raised her wrist and said something to the wrist armor.

Azu knew that the suits of these superheroes all contained special communicators for the Seven.

Maeve was probably contacting someone.

His eyes moved and then he looked into the hall, and saw stars in the hall.

Azu whistled: "The inside should be in harmony with the outside, right?"

"Come on, let me see what tricks you can do?"

In the Empire State Building, Maeve's voice suddenly sounded in Starlight's ears.

"Starlight, are you still in the hall?"

Starlight's heartbeat quickened, and she intuitively felt that something big was going to happen next. She turned around, turned her back to the booth, and whispered, "I'm here."

Maeve paused and said, "The Federation wants to rescue Arnold, and now this task falls on both of us."

"I thought so."

"I rushed in to attract the attention of those armors, and you took the opportunity to take Arnold away. Can you do it?"

Maeve took over the hardest part, and Starlight took care of the easy part.

But the girl didn't agree in one breath. She thought for a moment and then said: "What about the other hostages?"

"Even if we can rescue Arnold, Mr. Z will definitely hurt them, right?"

Maeve was silent for a few seconds before saying: "That is not something we are considering. As long as we follow the instructions, the Federation will naturally put pressure on the media. This matter will be handled in a low-key manner and we will not receive any condemnation."

Starlight shook her head: "That's not what I want to say."

"I'm not afraid of being condemned, but I can't ignore the lives of so many people in the hall just for one Arnold."

"And I promise to protect them."

Maeve smiled bitterly: "Starlight, although we are superheroes, you have been in the Tower of Seven for a while. You should know that many times, we just act like superheroes."

Starlight said in disbelief: "How can you say that."

"We are superheroes!"

"At least, that's what I see people from my motherland doing!"

Maeve said: "A native of the motherland?"

"He's just playing a game called superheroes."

"If he was really a hero, would he have killed so many people in the hall?"

Xingguang suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if something he had been holding on to had been suddenly smashed to pieces.

She bit her lip lightly, looked at the window, saw the burning bridge, saw the city with thick smoke rising, and saw herself.

Starlight took a deep breath and said firmly: "Even if this is the case, at least I will be a superhero tonight."

"I'm going to keep my word and protect these people in this hall."

In the fire escape, Maeve smiled with a headache and said, "That's good, you attract attention for me, and I'll be responsible for saving people."

"After I take Arnold away, I believe they will catch up. In this way, you can also leave with the people in the hall, how about it?"

This time, Xingguang did not refuse: "That's it."

Under the booth in the hall, while Starlight and Maeve were having a conversation, a man squeezed out of the crowd, raised his hands and said, "I am Sergeant Andrew, and I belong to the Department of Defense."

"Mr. Wilson, the Secretary of Defense, wants to negotiate with you about Manhattan."

On the booth, the 'Titan' armor, which had been silent until now, turned around, and Mr. Z's electronic synthesized voice sounded: "Turn on the speakerphone, Sergeant."

Sergeant Andrew put the mobile phone with the hands-free function on the stand, and a voice sounded from inside: "I'm Wilson."

In the hall, Xingguang looked around, and then quietly walked under a crystal lamp.

At this time, she heard Mr. Z at the booth say: "This is impossible, I will not agree to such ridiculous conditions."

"Also, tell your policemen on Manha Island to stay away, and don't think I don't know what they are doing."

It sounds like the other party and the Federation have begun negotiations, which is a good opportunity.

Starlight raised her hand and whispered to the communication machine in her wrist: "I'm going to take action, wait for my signal."

Then she lowered her head, letting her hair cover her, but her eyes lit up, as if they were electrified, and her pupils flickered with light.

When her starry eyes lit up, the crystal lamp above her head, a light bulb with moderate brightness, suddenly emitted a strong light.

In the blink of an eye, the light was as bright as day, and countless electric fires fell from the crystal lamp, causing the people below to run away quickly.

On the booth, the 'Titan' armor noticed something unusual and couldn't help but look in the direction of the crystal lamp.

On the other side, Starlight suddenly raised her head, raised her hands, and shouted: "Do it!"

On the top floor of the Empire State Building, all the windows transmit strong light at the same time, as if there is a sun rising inside.

High in the sky, Azu raised the corner of his mouth, looking at the light shining inside the building, he opened his mouth and softly exclaimed: "Wow~"
