The Death Knell

"哐Chi."

Su Ming placed a heavy silver-white pillar in the corner of the office. He took off his uniform and hurried to the bathroom to take a shower. At this time, his body was filled with the burnt smell of burnt flesh.

Yes, he returned to Marvel without incident, and the plan was... mostly smooth.

Except for the negative consequences of forcing his way into District 7.

Megatron was dealt with, but maybe it was too fast, or maybe Starscream sold Megatron again, and the other Decepticons didn't come at all...

On the other hand, Su Ming and the Autobots fought a war with the so-called "United Nations" army in Egypt.

There is nothing wrong with raiding the dam, except that it will be regarded as aliens invading the earth.

So after finding the leader module, Su Ming and his team, who wanted to do something good and help the earth dismantle the star extractor, were besieged by a large army.

At the end of the development, the United States launched ballistic missiles at the pyramid where they were located. I won’t mention the process after that, but there were various obstructions along the way.

Except for not seeing nuclear weapons, mankind has seen all conventional military means.

In the end, it was Su Ming who proclaimed himself the leader of the aliens and flew to the White House alone to have a 'friendly chat' with the president before getting a launch vehicle to help Optimus Prime and the others return to space.

The president was actually very satisfied, because after the aliens left, he immediately gave a televised speech, saying that the United States defeated the aliens on behalf of the earth. This was a glorious initiative in human history and was entirely due to the beacon of democracy.

Next, he will make Millikin great again.

In the White House on that Earth, Su Ming also met the 'red-haired woman' and the 'Duke', members of the 'Special Forces'.

It seems that the world has really merged, but it is a pity that we have not seen the previous integration process.

Heroes are always very trustworthy. When they returned to Ark II, Optimus Prime also paid Su Ming the reward he wanted after integrating the leader module.

An information processing module placed in a large jar is a secondary Cybertronian life that has no limbs and cannot transform.

Su Ming knew not to rush for success. Now Zhuzi had become a veritable ruler of Cybertron. If he had a good relationship with him, he could go to the planet Cybertron to exchange for anything he wanted next time.

The material civilization of Transformers is very developed, but their spiritual enjoyment is far inferior to that of humans. For example, Bumblebee has fallen in love with human music and movies, and a lot of online culture has also penetrated into his heart.

What Su Ming plans to trade with them next time is cultural products. Games, movies, and comics should all be valuable.

Bumblebee should stay on Cybertron. He is a close confidant of Optimus Prime. It's easy to get things done if he has acquaintances.

The next time Su Ming goes there, he won't go to that Earth and goes straight to Cybertron. When he lands, he must have a means of transportation and a tour guide, right?

The reason why such a big can is carried back is, on the one hand, the need for heat insulation when traveling through the atmosphere. On the other hand, it is too early here, so it is better to disguise this kind of high-tech equipment.

Su Ming finished taking a shower, wiped his hair and walked out wearing only a towel: "Adjutant, start collecting intelligence from radio waves and storing information."

A door appeared on the tall white jar and opened to both sides, and a human adjutant from StarCraft 2 slid out.

"Okay, Sheriff."

Needless to say, this is Su Ming's personal interest. Although the adjutant picked up by Jim Raynor looked tattered, Su Ming felt that there was always a kind of incomplete technological beauty, just like the cyberpunk version of Venus. .

When Optimus Prime asked him what kind of thinking module he needed, Su Ming immediately drew a picture for him...

Optimus Prime's expression at that time seemed to agree. The essence of Cybertron's technology has a human-like appearance. This is proof of the friendship between the two parties.

He happily ordered "Jack" to use the ship's plug alloy to knead a special analysis matrix for Su Ming with only rudimentary Cybertronian intelligence, which is what humans call a super intelligence brain.

The thinking of the Autobots is actually very simple. After fighting side by side, they become good friends. In the new life of Cybertron, the mission the Autobots' lieutenant received from the leader was to help Deathstroke.

It's just that Marvel's age is too early, and Su Ming can't let her run around. After a few decades, she can go to Cybertron to get some resources to upgrade her so that she can act independently.

Only then did Su Ming notice that the calendar on his desk had reached 1943.

"What's Earth time now, Adjutant?"

"According to the intelligence just collected, it is February 2, 1943, and mankind is engaged in a massive civil war."

"Tsk, I went to work with Transformers for a few days, but half a year has passed. It seems that traveling between two worlds for the first time may cause time fluctuations..."

Thinking of this, Su Ming armed himself and returned to DC.

Fortunately, nothing changed. After entering the origin wall and using the Comedian's badge, he found that he was still lying in the single room of Harley's apartment. Harley and Ivy were still laughing and drinking wine outside the door.

He returned to the time he left, exactly as if nothing happened after that.

Su Ming felt relieved and returned to Marvel. DC would face many problems, but since he now had plenty of time, he decided to wait until his strength expanded before moving on the chessboard there.

Su Ming picked up the phone and called Ginjiu and asked him to come over. Some information could not be understood from the radio.

Gin arrived quickly, as efficient as he had been for decades.

"Boss, you've been gone for a long time this time." Gin took off his felt hat and hung his coat on the hanger next to the door: "The most important thing is that we don't know where to find you."

"Ah, it's my fault."

Su Ming smiled and asked Gin to sit down, then unscrewed the wine bottle on the table.

The real goal is not to be found. Otherwise, if your boss makes trouble now, he will be caught and sent to work.

"I noticed that there is an extra piece of art in your office. What is it? A sculpture of confrontation between classical art and future technology?"

Gin turned to look at the office, and almost immediately noticed the adjutant in the corner, who had a puzzled expression on his face.

It is difficult to expect people of this generation to understand what robots are. In their minds, things that only exist in science fiction should be covered with large pieces of iron and fixed with rivets and screws.

"Actually...it's the light."

Su Ming stood up and touched the adjutant's head. The adjutant also cooperated very well and emitted blue light from his eyes, which really looked like a floor lamp.

"Boss, if you mysteriously disappeared for more than half a year just for a floor lamp, I can only say that the lighting effect of this lamp does not match its size."

Gin just vaguely said that he didn't believe it at all. He always knew that the boss's thing was definitely not magic or a deception, but really traveled through the universe, and this thing was definitely not a floor lamp.

"Okay, Gin, what did you say you came to see me for? There is Jos for public relations matters, vodka for legal issues, and directors of various factories, not to mention you to control the overall situation. I don't think I Why is it necessary to stay in the office and sign documents every day?"

Su Ming and Ginjiu toasted and changed the topic.

Except for the fact that when he first ran the winery and had to do it himself due to a lack of manpower, he later left many things to Gin.

Gin is loyal and always on call. Su Ming feels comfortable leaving the company's operations to him. He doesn't need much professional knowledge, as long as he can keep things under control.

"Remember? Boss, more than half a year ago, you once said that you would build a school..."

"Ah, of course." To Su Ming, that was just a matter of the past few days: "Has it been completed yet? You didn't just build a small building for me, right?"

Gin smiled, returned to the door, took out a map from his coat, spread it on the table, and turned on the lamp a little brighter.

"Here, vodka bought most of the land in the town of Montauk on the easternmost side of Long Island. Thanks to the stock market crash and the world war, there was only a large area of ​​farmland there before, and the price was still affordable."

"I guess Joss also put in a lot of effort. If you want to buy land on a large scale so close to New York, you probably need to go through some tricks."

Su Ming took a sip of wine and looked down at the map. If it was Montauk, then the size of this school would definitely be huge.

"Fortunately, the local government welcomes it. After all, we want to build a school. Although Montauk produces grapes and carrots, compared with agricultural products, more professors and artists should be more popular."

Gin made some gestures on the map, with a smile on his face. Although not every farmer was willing to sell his ancestral fields, after Jos and Vodka set off as a team, it was difficult to rival them in terms of eloquence.

At that time, the farmers heard various reasons such as 'Running schools is to cultivate the hope of America's future', 'Your children can also get a good education', 'Wilson Enterprises will thank you', of course, plus some land purchase premiums. They are willing to move for this purpose.

However, it is true that some people are greedy or refuse to cooperate, and that is Gin's task.

You must know that Wilson Enterprises used to be a "winery" and was involved in the underworld. It is not always possible to convince people with reason. The number of Gin's thugs has been increasing.

It's just that those people are now corporate security personnel who can legally carry guns.

Every time Su Ming sees these thugs who once roamed the streets, they are now in neat suits, full of energy, with guns in their pockets and money.

He always feels very gratified and feels that he has made a lot of contributions to society.

"Tell me, how big will my school be when it's completed?"

If it weren't for the middle of the night, Su Ming would really want Ginjiu to take him to have a look.

"We hired many construction companies. Even the campus benches were built by more than a dozen companies at the same time. It took more than half a year to complete the construction of the school. It was almost a small city, boss, covering an area of ​​2,000 hectares. .”

2,000 hectares, which is 20 square kilometers if it is a square. This number is nothing to Su Ming, who was Chinese in his previous life.

But in the United States now, this area is more than enough to build schools. You must know that in the future, Stanford University will only have 33 square kilometers and Duke University will have 40 square kilometers.

However, Su Ming also knew that the terrain of Montauk was on a peninsula after all, surrounded by the sea on three sides. It might be surrounded by a lot of land, but there were not many places that could actually be used.

Gin naturally explained this. Fortunately, this was not a school in the conventional sense. On the contrary, it was more like some kind of training institution.

So in addition to the building facilities that ordinary schools have, it also has a swamp, a beach, and a large forest.
