Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

Chapter 132: past x present

Time: March 1, 1984, 10:22 am.

Location: Pegrosse United Nations, southwest coast.

The container ship that Illumi and the others were on went to the port of Patiros for supplies, and immediately detoured along the coast of Pegrosé to the southwest coast of Pegrosé.

Finally, the ship stopped at the coastal area 200 kilometers west of Sigran City and 100 kilometers away from Umbrella's headquarters.

Pegros is sparsely populated, with 90% of the population gathered in one group, and half of the citizens live in the two international cities of Patilus and Sshuhaier.

Illumi is not at all worried that someone will find a container ship stuck on the southwest coast.

Of course, it is not excluded that some indigenous tribes still exist in those deep mountains and forests.

The continent of Pegrosse is too big, and the virgin forest is too dangerous.

No one knows how many indigenous tribes remain in those virgin forests.

On the quiet coastal beach, Amed waited silently on the beach with a group of soldiers who were sweeping away pirates.

"Boss, long time no see."

Amed took the initiative to meet him, then took a step behind Ilumi and walked forward.

"What happened to the pirate forces in the Savusavu Republic that you swept up?"

Illumi asked casually.

Behind him were four guards in combat uniforms, as well as Caesar, Eric, and Dr. Kipsiller.

The four guards looked at the soldiers standing on the beach, and could feel a needle-like sense of danger from them.

That is the oppression of ordinary people by psychics. If they are only ordinary people, they will naturally not feel it, but they are soldiers who have undergone brutal training and can naturally perceive the sense of danger clearly.

But as long as they thought that these were the subordinates of the new chief in front of them, they felt a lot more relieved.

"The pirate power in the Savusavu Republic was wiped out by us in less than a month."

Amed replied indifferently, the gap between these psychics and ordinary pirates is too great.

Under the three aspects of individual strength, team strength, and equipment, ordinary pirates could not survive for a second in front of these psychic soldiers.

They even used the largest local pirate force's camp as a training camp, and they decided to return to the company after preparing for a week.

"That's right, boss."

"I think our company's training base is not enough for us."

Amed suddenly said, and the two came to an armed jeep.

Ilumi paused when he got into the car and thought for a moment.

"Indeed, one hundred and twenty soldiers plus six hundred guards."

"Need to find another place to build a training camp."

Illumi raised his legs and stepped onto the jeep, looked down at Amed, and said.

"Since you proposed it, you should have a good choice, right?"

Amed stood in front of the jeep, the corners of his mouth cracked, and he smiled.

"I think the Kerencia rainforest is good."

Illumi nodded, closed the door, and the soldier in charge of driving immediately started the engine and headed to the Umbrella company headquarters.

The road from here to the company's headquarters is very uneven and rugged because no one is moving, and it takes more than double the normal speed.

Three hours later, Ilumi returned to the company and took the three of Dr. Kipsiler into the top-floor office.

"Has the new antibiotic already started production?"

The first thing Illumi did after entering the office was to ask about new antibiotics.

"Everything is going according to plan and there will be no mistakes."

Kim Bradley stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looked sideways at Illumi, and said solemnly.

"That's good, the next moment is the critical moment."

"The production base must be guarded closely during this time, other companies or some black hands with ulterior motives may reach out here."

"Particular attention should be paid to Illumina Biotech, after all, we took food from them."

"Also, in terms of the news media, you need to come forward."

Naturally, Ilumi didn't intend to come forward. Even if he could transform into other faces, it would be more appropriate for Kim Bradley to come forward.

"This is Dr. Kipsile Aragir, who will be the director of our company's weapons research institute in the future."

Illumi pointed to Kipsiler sideways and introduced Kim Bradley, although they had already communicated on the phone.

At this time, Kipsiller, who had already changed his prison uniform into a decent suit, looked at the man named Kim Bradley. For some reason, an inexplicable nervousness rose in his heart.

"Hello, Dr. Kipsiller, I'm Kim Bradley, Chairman of Umbrella Biotechnology."

Kim Bradley stretched out his right hand and took the initiative to shake hands with Kipsiller. Kipsiller looked at Illumi and then at Kim Bradley, and asked uncertainly.

"You two, who is in charge."

Kipsiler was a little unsure. Before he came, he always thought that Ilumi was the master. That kind of strength and means, as well as the city government, were not ordinary people.

But now that he sees Kim Bradley, he subconsciously thinks he's the real mastermind behind it.

But Illumi's attitude towards Kim Bradley was a bit confusing to him.

"Of course... the boss."

Kim Bradley twitched, Kipsiller looked at Illumi sitting on the sofa again, and opened his mouth.

He didn't expect that this middle-aged man who looked like the leader of a certain country and possessed a strong aura would actually call the young man in his twenties a boss.

"Then, please pay more attention."

When the words fell, Kipsiler shook hands with Kim Bradley. He finally returned to the state of loneliness and genius before he entered the prison, and his whole body was full of strong self-confidence.

At this moment, he fits the image of a scientific research genius in everyone's imagination.

It's not a small gangster who stays in prison all the year round, fights to cause trouble, and gathers crowds to fight.

"Caesar, take Dr. Kipsiller down to rest."

Illumi ordered, Caesar and Eric both nodded, Kipsiller glanced at Illumi again, and followed Caesar out of the office.

"What does the Pegrosse government say about us?"

After Dr. Kipsiler went down, the topic returned to the issue of new antibiotics.

"The Pegrosse government has indicated that it will strongly support us."

Kim Bradley replied, Ilumi chuckled when he heard the words, closed his eyes and pondered.

The Pegrosse government's reaction was what they expected.

Without the support of the government, the high cost and high failure rate of researching antibiotics, except for a few large biopharmaceutical companies, could not afford the losses caused by researching new antibiotics.

The most disturbing thing is that a super bacteria with strong drug resistance has recently emerged in the medical industry. Although it is not very infectious, it has a very high fatality rate.

Under the deadly threat of this new superbug and multi-drug-resistant strains of superbugs, the medical community in all countries of the world is under pressure.

At this time, a company that was not well-known or even heard of before developed a new type of antibiotic before the large pharmaceutical company.

The company claims that after years of stealth research, it has developed a new type of antibiotic that can effectively deal with the current superbugs that have increased drug resistance.

Because of the new antibiotics, many media around the world have become interested in Umbrella.

In particular, Pegrosse's media began to investigate and report on the incident.

The next day, the LOGO of Umbrella Biotechnology and pictures of the new antibiotic-a appeared in many media and newspapers.

This news may not attract too many ordinary people's attention, and even people will forget about it the next morning, but in the eyes of some people, it is particularly noticeable.

Time: March 2, 1984, 10:10 am.

Location: Illumina Biotech Headquarters, Gros City, Addison United States.

Hubert Hamilton, Chairman of the Board of Directors and CEO of Illumina Biotechnology Corporation, stands in front of the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out at the bustling city full of youthful vitality, his eyes are concentrated, he is silent, and he does not know what to think what.

Hubert Hamilton, who is sixty-four years old this year, will reach the normal retirement age of the United States of America in a year's time.

Illumina Biotechnology, as a leader in the world's only industry, in fact, in recent years, Illumina has not been as easy as the outside world said.

On the contrary, Illumina's global sales of medicines are declining year-on-year, all because of drug-resistant superbugs.

And, it can be clearly expected that in the following days, this decline will not stop.

Even though he is the helm of Immena, there are many things that he can't stop. At most, he struggles under the tide of the times and tries to save himself.

And in the end, things will go in a direction that no one can control.

This is the sorrow of mankind.

Many times, human beings clearly know the result, but do not know what to do or how to change it.

Most importantly, humans themselves lack the will to change.

Any civilization will eventually face a critical point of survival, and most of them cannot resist.

And if someone said they did it ~www.NovelMTL.com~ he would ask:

Did you do it? How did you do it?

But the final answer will point to one.

All the destruction of the past, the achievement of the present.

Humans need to find the will to change in the destruction and complete the evolution.

And now, it is a critical point in the evolution of Illumina.

but now!
