Issue-42

Manhattan, New York

In the Umbrella head office building, in the chairman's office, a new-style color TV is making sound.

Looking at the screen, a woman wearing a professional skirt is facing the camera and reporting a piece of news!

"Since Umbrella's name was changed, its corporate image has also changed. It has not only got rid of the original label of a pharmaceutical company and has developed towards a diversified direction, but now it is also vigorously developing charity!"

"Next is the latest news from this station!" As the hostess's voice just fell, a new screen was inserted. However, due to the age, At the moment's image technology will inevitably lose its color, but it can still be guaranteed. Everyone sees the image in the screen clearly.

It is a modern building with a very large area. As the camera flashes one by one, we can see that all the signs engraved on the building are Umbrella's umbrella-shaped signs, which move with the camera. , And finally froze on a lady with an Angel-like smile.

"Hello everyone, I'm the live reporter of this station. At the moment we are located in San Francisco, California, USA. The one in our lens is: Ms. Ava, President and CEO of Umbrella. At this moment, she is investing in the construction of Umbrella. The 72nd orphanage in the United States gave an opening speech. Let us listen to the speech of this female president dedicated to charity!"

While speaking, the perspective of the whole picture was completely fixed, locked on Ava's body, and the voice from the TV turned into Ava's crisp and sweet voice.

"...Charity is an attitude. This is the 72nd orphanage in the United States invested and established by our company, and it is not the last..."

As Ava's voice disappeared, Mephisto, who was sitting behind the desk, smiled, then picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, turned the boss chair under his feet, and brought himself to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the busy people below. !

At the moment, it has been nearly a year since Umbrella's name was changed. During this year, the Blue Umbrella Project was proceeding in an orderly manner, including those reported on TV, which was also part of the Blue Umbrella Project, even that TV report. , From planning to photography, even the copywriting is by Umbrella.

In this short year, the company invested a part of the funds. With the support of the government, 72 large orphanages were built across the United States, and even more orphanages will be established in impoverished areas around the world. Or other relief agencies.

This seemingly useless behavior is actually for the cultivation of top talents and is part of the Blue Umbrella Project. There are so many talents in the world, but they are either lost to the crowd or controlled by other forces. The remaining talents who are discovered by themselves are not very loyal to the company!

Therefore, for the development of the company, the project code-named "PC" in the Blue Umbrella Project came into being. The main purpose of this project is to build orphanages across the country and even the world, and to take in orphans while giving them good education and training. Umbrella company delivers fresh blood!

This is a long-term project with a large investment, but it is the key to Umbrella's future development!

However, apart from bringing prestige to the company, the 'PC' project nowadays is really of no use for the time being. Those top talents who may contribute to the company in the future may still be kiddies now!

The person in charge of the 'PC' project is Ava, and Murphy just took the time to check it out. Seeing the smooth progress of the project, Murphy no longer pays too much attention!

Because there are several important things on his hands that need him to personally control the direction.

First, the "Sun Ladder" flowers he brought back have lost the corresponding characteristics for some reason, and the ancestor virus cannot be extracted, and the newly cultivated "Sun Ladder" flowers cannot produce the "Ancestor Virus".

Fortunately, in West Africa, the flowers on the "Sun Ladder" flowerbeds still maintained their original functions. However, they had to build a research center there to extract the ancestor virus and send it to various research and development institutions.

In order to ensure the smooth construction of the research center, a large number of Umbrella forces have been sent there by Murphy to control the 'solar ladder' altar. At the same time, Dr. James will also arrive soon to preside over the affairs of the African Research Center!

Second, this year is 1962. According to the plot, Sebastian Shaw, the black king of Mutant, will carry the Mutant members of the Hellfire Club this year, leading to the Cuban missile crisis.

Although most of the power at hand is held back by things in Africa, Murphy still has X-Men who have been trained for nearly a year. If commanded properly, it should be able to stop the Black King's plan. At the same time, this is also a new variant to overcome. Chance!

Magneto, White Queen, Red Devil, Riptide, etc. may all be used by him in this incident. As for Sebastian Shaw, he must die, or there is no chance to regain a few people!

Compared to the situation in Africa, this matter is even more important. Once the position of the Black King is locked, Murphy will lead the X-Men to attack, so he has stayed in New York recently to closely monitor the progress of the incident.
