Chapter 2: [Abnormal Capitalists·I](2/2)
Why move the pieces when you can move the board.
When the game can be ended at any time, there is only one reason to continue
——That’s [Continue Game].
They themselves are players of the game.
Heaven considers the activities of [MC&D Co., Ltd.] to be a major threat to the stability of reality and lists it as a key target.
Xia Xiu just cheated on one of the other party's projects a while ago and even warned them verbally.
To be honest, he was a little surprised that they were willing to attend this meeting.
Marshall stood up slowly, bowed slightly and saluted, his voice low and gentle.
"Your Excellency Abraham, this is our first meeting. I hope that some of the previous 'unhappiness' of the company I represent will not affect our communication today."
His tone was full of politeness, but also revealed a certain tentative edge.
Hearing this, Xia Xiu raised a faint smile on his lips and said softly:
"Mr. Marshall's demeanor is as rumored. As for the 'unpleasantness', these details can be put aside in the face of the overall situation."
The moment the two looked at each other, it was as if knives were clashing invisibly, testing each other's bottom line.
The two of them smiled and shook hands, but there was a hint of cold alienation in their smiles.
There was an indescribable sense of tension in the air, as if this was just a superficial exchange of pleasantries, but in fact the testing between the two sides had already begun in words and auras.
Hanks noticed this subtle atmosphere, coughed slightly, showed his signature gentle smile, and broke the silence:
"Next is..."
Before he finished speaking, another participant in the same direction stood up.
This is a thin middle-aged man with a medium build. He is wearing a gray suit with a work-like style. The collar is not completely tightened, giving off a vague and dangerous atmosphere.
His right arm is a mechanical prosthesis, covered with silver-blue metal armor. Its smooth and smooth design and flickering faint blue light make it look like a precise work of art.
"Vincent Anderson," the middle-aged man said, his tone casual but calm.
The corners of his mouth raised into a playful smile, and the mechanical prosthesis on his right hand slowly stretched out.
"——Representative of Anderson Robotics."
[Abnormal Capital: Anderson Robot——]
A company dedicated to developing anomalous technology and lineage intelligence, with a special focus on anomalous automated equipment, robots, and computer systems with anomalous abilities.
Its products are both abnormal and practical, serving wealthy individuals, abnormal capital organizations and certain "hostile organizations".
The company was founded by Vincent Anderson, a technical genius with an almost fanatical interest in abnormal technology.
At the same time, he is also the current Terra...
——Pioneer of Thaumaturgy Technology (the first person in Thaumaturgy Technology).
[Anderson Robot] is known for its highly advanced technology and stealth, and is one of the leaders in the field of anomalous technology.
Their philosophy is only one:
"Abnormal technology is the key to future development and should be integrated into daily life——"
Their relationship with the Kingdom of Heaven is not very good either.
Heaven considers [Anderson Robot] to be a "dangerous source of technology", and the Burial Agency has repeatedly tried to raid its facilities and contain the products.
Xia Xiu's eyes fell on the mechanical prosthesis, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and then politely stretched out his hand to shake his hand.
The touch of the mechanical prosthesis is cold and hard, and it seems to have a sense of power that is hard to ignore.
"Anderson Robot."
Xia Xiu repeated it softly, with a hint of meaning in his tone, "I have long heard about your company's achievements in abnormal technology and engineering."
Vincent's smile deepened, he lowered his head slightly and said humbly:
"Your Excellency, you are exaggerating. We are just doing a small business. How can we compare with such a huge thing as the Kingdom of Heaven?"
Although his tone was modest, his sharp eyes were fixed on the blond young man, as if he wanted to capture some hidden intentions from the other person's words.
Xia Xiu calmly let go of his hand and smiled faintly:
"A small fight? I'm afraid not many people will believe Vincent Anderson's modesty."
Hanks stood aside, looked at Vincent, then at Xia Xiu, smiled softly, and continued:
"There are also many potential areas of cooperation between Anderson Robotics and Heavenly Kingdom. I think this will be a fruitful meeting."
Vincent nodded slightly and sat down again, but his eyes were still locked on Xia Xiu, like a cheetah waiting for an opportunity.
Xia Xiu, on the other hand, calmly turned his gaze to the next participant, as if the confrontation just now was just an ordinary greeting.
The atmosphere in the conference room became tense and complicated again with this short conversation.
Everyone knows that this negotiation has just begun, and the real game is far from reaching its climax.
Just now, Xia Xiu saw two old enemies in Heaven - [MC&D] and [Anderson Robot].
