My countryman becomes Ultraman, I eat the soft rice of the middleman

Chapter 25: Slander by public opinion, national sensation, most wanted criminal

In a daze, the two returned to the secret base.

In the living room of the villa.

Daisy and Link looked at each other in silence. The atmosphere was extremely solemn. The only sound was the news broadcast on TV, which formed a sharp contrast with the previous joyful atmosphere.

Daisy, who was originally confident and cheerful, became silent at this moment.

Before, even when facing the pursuit of the criminal king Kingpin, she was able to deal with it calmly and without fear.

Even if they are special forces soldiers from the military, she will kill them if she wants to, without any taboos.

Therefore, she once thought that the military was just like that.

But when the military really took action, she realized how insignificant she was.

After all, she is just an ordinary person with some ability.

Without a strong background and absolute power, she was completely powerless in the face of a behemoth like the military.

Looking at Daisy's painful face, Link comforted her: "Daisy! Calm down, everything will be fine!"

"Calm down? How can you ask me to calm down? The people who were arrested are my relatives!"

Daisy asked loudly and excitedly.

Her eyes were filled with tears, and tear marks crisscrossed her delicate face.

The sadness, fear, confusion and self-blame suppressed in the heart all erupted like a volcano at this moment.

Her adoptive parents are her only two relatives in this world.

But now, she has caused her adoptive parents to be captured by the military.

When Daisy thought of this, she hated her own willfulness and recklessness, and felt full of regret.

At this moment, the TV screen flashed and the picture changed suddenly.

"I have an urgent news report. A serious crime occurred in Central Park, Manhattan, around 6am this morning."

"The special forces led by General Ross launched an operation to capture a vicious mutant who had committed numerous crimes. However, they were attacked by the mutant and the entire force was annihilated. General Ross was also killed in the operation..."

This shocking news instantly caused a sensation in the entire United States.

Countless viewers watching the FX News Channel were in an uproar at this moment.

The military was actually wiped out by a mutant?

Could this mutant be from the Brotherhood?

Or does he possess Omega-level strength?

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why an entire powerful special forces unit would be wiped out by just a mutant.

However, the host then broadcast an exclusive video that recreated the thrilling battle in Central Park, which completely cleared up everyone's doubts.

Although the video is not very clear.

But it still allows people to see how fierce and terrifying Link's battle with the Abomination is.

Its level of tension and intensity far exceeds any Hollywood special effects blockbuster.

The moment this video was broadcast, the ratings of FX TV station soared.

At this time, the military secretly stepped forward and quickly passed the information to the TV station.

The host took the new manuscript handed over by his assistant and began to broadcast the second news.

"According to the investigation report disclosed by the military, the criminal mutant is of Chinese descent named Link, codenamed Homelander, has an antisocial personality, and is brutal."

"Currently, the Ministry of National Defense has listed him as the most wanted criminal..."

In order to make it easier for viewers to identify him, the TV station released a photo of Link.

At this moment, Link was standing in front of the TV, with murderous intent in his eyes almost bursting out.

He never expected that the military would turn the tables and use public opinion to discredit him, confusing right and wrong and turning the tables on Tian Gang.

They even issued a global arrest warrant for him and branded him as a sociopath.

This was a great injustice and humiliation for Link.

He has never wanted to kill someone as much as he does now!

Originally, he only planned to kill a few culprits in the military.

But now...

"You all deserve to die!"

Link's gaze was like a glacier that had existed for thousands of years, eerie and cold.

At this time, the host's voice came from the TV again.

"In one hour, the military will hold a press conference at the Dome Prison in the Rocky Mountains to further disclose relevant information about the suspect to the public. Please pay attention."

This prison, called the Dome, is a high-tech prison built by the military.

The prototype is Rikers Island Prison, a new prison built after the integration of the Pegasus Project specifically for detaining people with super powers.

In order to deal with people with super powers, the prison guards in the dome all wear a set of armor specially designed by Iron Man.

Today, the dome has become a place for publishing information about criminals, which is full of irony and provocation.

It wasn't over yet. The news announced by the host hit Daisy like a bolt from the blue, causing her to completely break down and burst into tears.

"The latest news just came from the military. The suspect's accomplices have been shot dead..."

At the same time, a group of photos of Daisy's adoptive parents appeared in the upper right corner of the TV.

The moment Daisy looked at these two photos, her mind went blank. She could no longer control her emotions and she knelt on the ground, crying loudly.

The only two relatives she had in this world... were gone just like that.

Daisy's spirit collapsed instantly, and the hatred and guilt in her heart overwhelmed her like a tide.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't provoked the military, if I hadn't been so willful and self-righteous, none of this would have happened and they wouldn't have died!"

"It's all my fault...it's all my fault!!"

Daisy's eyes were red and she held her head in her hands and cried.

She hates the military!

But she hated herself even more!

Hate my own willfulness and my own incompetence!

The pain in her heart continued to torture Daisy. She cried and screamed, tearing herself apart like a madman, leaving countless claw marks on her skin, and bleeding.

She needs to vent!

The pain of self-harm is needed to alleviate the regret and self-blame in one's heart!

Link watched this scene silently. He tried to comfort Daisy, but she was on the verge of a breakdown and wouldn't listen to anything.

With a deep sigh, Link stepped forward and hugged Daisy, forcibly stopping her from self-harming.

After being forcibly stopped by Link, Daisy's sanity gradually returned to normal.

"Link... help me..."

She leaned against Link, bit her lips hard, and tears flowed out uncontrollably, soaking Link's chest.

Looking at her, Link felt a surge of pity.

He thought of his girlfriend Shandeng, who had also cried like this in his arms.

Link patted Daisy's back gently, while sending a stream of energy into her body, healing her injuries and soothing her spirit.

Gradually, Daisy fell asleep in Link's arms, with tear marks on her pale face.

Looking at her sleeping face, Link's eyes flashed with tenderness.

"It's better to sleep. Have a good sleep. Everything will be fine when you wake up."
