MODIFIED -- CHAPTER 16: Meeting interrupted

"Boss, the NYPD has been watching us very closely lately."

"There are several batches of products available that cannot be sold."

Kingpin, who was sitting in the main seat, watched his confidants constantly complaining to him.

While talking, some of them started to argue because of their current situation.

"He arrives!"

He just spoke in a light tone.

The men in the safe room immediately became quiet.

"George Stacy, that guy, is just trying to get some evidence about our actions. Keep keeping a low profile."

"It doesn't matter if you make less money now, don't get into trouble with the police."

With Kingpin speaking, the group calmed down.

But there was still one man who said indignantly, "Boss, isn't he just a police captain? Why should we be afraid of him?"

"He's not a big problem, I'll find someone to do it..."

Kingpin glared coldly, and the man immediately closed his mouth obediently.

Kingpin didn't bother explaining the pros and cons to this man.

"Anyway, you all give me some peace during this time. If nothing important happens, don't bother me."

As soon as these words were spoken, the men immediately felt that the temperature in the safe room dropped by a few degrees.

"Understood, Boss."

Everyone said in unison.

"By the way." One of the men spoke

"Boss, didn't you say you were going to get all the rights to those popular books? How's it going?"

The man who was closest to Kingpin smiled obscenely and said, "It's time to choose an actress."

"Boys, you can have fun too!"

Talking about this topic, other people's eyes also became much more active.

They played with all types of women.

They haven't tried it with a famous actress yet.

So when they heard that Kingpin was going to open a recording studio and gain the copyrights to popular books.

They were already imagining a better life in the future.

In this capitalist environment.

This type of situation is not that uncommon.

Unfortunately, Kingpin's response was different from what they expected.

"I miscalculated on this matter."

Calculation error?

Everyone looked at each other in consternation, not knowing what Kingpin meant by that sentence.

In their view, as long as Kingpin wants something he will get it.

Be it money or women.

Everything can be easily obtained.

Kingpin looked at the people present and sighed in disappointment.

These idiots can only think with their lower body.

"That guy named Arthur is probably a Mutant."

"The men who went to buy his copyrights were all defeated by him."

A man in a bad mood immediately said, "Boss, do you want me to hire an assassin to kill you?"

He's just a mutant.

Which of them doesn't have the blood of a Mutant on their hands?

This pile of garbage shouldn't exist in this world.

"Lately, George Stacy has been watching us closely, so don't..."

In the middle of their conversation, they suddenly heard an alarm sound, which shocked everyone except Kingpin.

The red warning light in the corner made Kingpin frown.

Immediately pressing a small button on the side of the seat, a monitor came out of the ceiling.

The factory area monitoring screen appeared on her.

But the scene inside made everyone wonder if they had a problem with their eyes.

All the people he brought were lying on the ground.

It is unclear whether they are alive or not.

These are all security forces carefully selected by Kingpin.

Even if the army comes, it is absolutely impossible to attack them silently like this.

But this scene actually happened.

"Boss, who is attacking us?"

"What do we do now?"

Kingpin also frowned, completely oblivious to what happened.

If it weren't for the multi-layered insurance he created himself, the siren probably wouldn't even sound.

The men in the hideout were already starting to get a little nervous.

"Why are you panicking? No one knows the entrance to this complete underground room except me."

"No one can find us here, and even if they do, so what? The entire room is made of tungsten alloy, no one will be able to get through these walls, just wait and see what's happening out there."

Hearing this, they calmed down in an instant.

Even for them to enter here, they had to come slowly, blindfolded and being guided by someone.

If Kingpin hadn't brought them, even they wouldn't have known that there was an underground hideout in that place.

Even saying this, Kingpin vaguely felt something was wrong.

For a long time, he relied heavily on his intuition.

This let him escape death many times.

Pressing the button again the monitoring screen on the monitor changed immediately.

Now it showed a hallway passage.

The others didn't know where it was, only Kingpin knew it was the only way to this room.

When the image appeared, Kingpin's eyes flashed in disbelief, "That's impossible, how could he know about that entry?"

Now Kingpin knew who was attacking.

It was Arthur Morgan!

No matter how stupid others were, they had already guessed that the surveillance screen was showing the way to this room.

This person is probably seeking revenge.

"Boss, didn't you say that no one could be found here?"

"Who is this person!"

"He took out all those men out there by himself?"

The noise immediately disturbed Kingpin, so he hit the ground hard with his cane: "Shut up!"

Even under such circumstances, Kingpin's aura could still suppress the fear in their hearts.

Immediately everything calmed down.

"This safe room is made of 4.5m thick tungsten alloy materials. Even if a missile hits it, it will only leave a mark."

"Boss, look, what is he going to do?"

In the video, Arthur's eyes began to glow red.

"What the hell is he going to do? Is he going to try to melt the door with some kind of heat vision?"

"The melting point of Tungsten is almost 3500°C, with the almost perfect mixing of other metals to form an alloy, not only the door, but this entire room has a melting point of almost 5000°C, where the hell did he get the confidence that he could melt 15 feet of that?"

Before he could continue speaking, a beam of red energy was released from Arthur's eyes, hitting the door.

In an instant the temperature of the room began to rise, while the door began to glow an intense white followed by red due to Arthur's heat vision.

Soon the entire door began to melt into liquid metal.

Everyone in the room could see Arthur casually walking through the now melted door with his eyes still glowing red.

At this time he spoke in a playful voice.

"I hope I didn't interrupt anything, Kingpin..."

"By the way, this door is already like this after I entered."
