[Reward: Darkseid's Telepathy Flight]

Seeing the different rewards made Lex smile. He has also forgotten about the system. That's because, he has been so busy going through other things. The system didn't want to interrupt him.

Lex begun looking through the missions, he has yet to complete. Going through a few things, Lex smiled. He plans to accomplish the missions and get those rewards in no time at all, but politics can be tricky.

Snapping his hands, a man walk through, with a butler suit. It's Jarvis, Lex has offered Jarvis something more valuable than just love or friendship. He offered Jarvis acknowledgment and respect that comes along with being friends.

Lex speaks. "Jarvis my friend, can you please tell of my people to set up a Press Conference. I have just entered the Defensive Industry, and I want to come in with a bang."

Jarvis puts the cup of tea down, and bows. He mutters. "Very well, Master Lex!"

Seeing Jarvis walk off, Lex sighs in relief. He leans back inside his seat. Since coming to this world, he hasn't had a break yet. From going through the Mafia to this is tiring.

Fast forward! Few days has passed since then. The need of LexCorp revealing it's weapons have made global news. Reporters, Journalists, etc here. Peggy and Howard were here as well.

In a grand conference hall filled with reports, politicians, and influential figures from around the World. Lex took the stage. The billionaire industrialist had called this gathering to make a groundbreaking announcement. One that would change the course of global affairs.

As he stepped up the podium, the room hushed in anticipation. Lex exuded confidence. His charisma captivating the audience. He cleared his throat and began speaking.

"Ladies and Gentleman, esteemed guest, thank you for joining me today stand for you not only as a businessman but as a visionary who seek to shape a safer and more prosperous future for all humanity."

Cameras flashes, capturing every word and gesture. The world held its breath eager to hear what Lex had to say.

"For years, I have been working tirelessly in the field of advanced weaponry. Today, I am here to reveal my groundbreaking technological advancements that will revolutionize the way we defend ourselves and maintain global security."

Whispers ripples through the crowd as they eagerly awaited the unveiling of Lex's weapons.

Lex's voice resonated with confidence as he continued. "Gone are the days of conventional warfare, where lives are needlessly sacrificed on the battlefield. I present to you a new area of defense technology. The LexCorp Quantum Armament System."

The room erupted with gasps and murmurs as Lex unveiled holographic projections showcasing his revolutionary weapons. The audience marveled at the sleek design and cutting-edge capabilities.

"The Quantum Armament System is a suite of advanced weaponry. Utilizing state of the art Artificial Intelligence and Energy-Based Technologies. These weapons harness the power of a Quantum Mechanics, enabling precise target acquisition, unparalleled destructive capabilities. A level of efficiency never before seen in the history of Warfare."

Lex passionately described each weapon, highlighting their unique features and potential applications. From unmanned aerial drones capable of pinpoint strikes to advance energy shields that could protect entire cities, his arsenal seemed limitless.

However amidst the awe-inspiring spectacle, skepticism loomed in the minds of some attendees. Questions of accountability and the potential for misuse hung in the air.

Addressing these concerns, Lex continued. "With great Power comes great Responsibility. I understand the reservations some may have regarding the implications of such advanced weaponry. That is why I pledge to work closely with government and International Organizations to ensure strict regulations and oversight are in place."

He emphasized the importance of transparency, ethical guidelines and the avoidance of unnecessary harm. Lex aimed to establish a new era of responsible weapon development. Where the benefits would outweigh the risks.

The room buzzed with a mix of curiosity, excitement, and skepticism. Reporters scrambled to ask questions, seeking further clarity on the intentions and potential consequences of Lex's weapons.

As the Q&A session progressed, Lex answered each question with finesse, assuring the world that his motivations were driven by a desire to protect and empower humanity. He stressed the importance of collaboration and cooperation, inviting governments research institutions, and humanitarian organizations to join him in shaping the future of defense technology.

The Press Conference concluded, leaving the world divided in its opinion. Some hailed Lex as a visionary, applauding his dedication to advancing humanity's ability to defend itself. Others remained cautious, concerned about the potential misuse of such powerful weaponry.

In the days that followed, discussions and debates raged on, with Governments and Organizations weighing the risks and benefits of adopting Lex's advanced arsenal. The world stood on the precipice of a new era. Where the fate of global security lay in the hands of one man.

Inside LexCorp, Lex seeing the green check mark on his System Interface made him smile proudly. Immediately after, a soft, white glow came and spread all over Lex's body.

A euphoric feeling swept over Lex's causing him to close his eyes. He breaths a deep breath, before finally opening his eyes again.

An incredibly Powerful and Invasive Force appears in Lex's mind. Lex found out with his new abilities, he can directly invade anyone's mind. He can delve deep into a person's thoughts, memories, and emotions. Manipulating and Controlling their minds to suit his desires.

Now, I can finally do something, I have been dying to do. Immediately Lex closes his eyes, he is currently scanning the entire World Telepathically. Soon, he finally found one of the people he was looking for.

At the heart of Boston Massachusetts, Senator Craig is inside of his office doing paperwork. When felt a strange feeling. It's like his very essence is being violated. It's deeply uncomfortable and distressing sensation.

Senator Craig immediately start to have migraines. They were so huge, Senator Craig was on verge of going insane. Before he could call for help, his entire head exploded. Huge chunks of bloody gore all in his office. His brain is on a paper that reads. 'Lex's True Nature'

The Power and Brutal force now went to find it's next target. Howard Stark is inside mansion right now with three beautiful girls on his arms. Before he could explain that same force evades Howard's mind making him uncomfortable.

It's like his mind is being forcefully invaded and his thoughts and memories laid bare for Lex to exploit. The battle in his head is extremely intense. It's like his knowledge about Weapons and Technology is being forcefully ripped from him.

This strange phenomenon made the girls scared and run away. The raw and brutal force is instilling fear and helplessness inside Howard's mind. The invasion is leaving Psychological scars, as the intense invasion of privacy and loss of control is becoming traumatic.

Immediately afterwards, Howard passes. The moment he wakes up, a new Howard Stark will be born. A Howard Stark you never knew could exist.

Back inside LexCorp, Lex opens his eyes, as another System Interface pops up.
