Chapter 144: Observation

In an unknown location in Earth's upper atmosphere -

A powerfully built man who looked like he could have been a bodybuilder stood tall with his hands clasped behind his back Despite looking like he could break a bear's neck with one hand, he dressed with reverence to the word 'elegant' in a black suit and tie outfit

Creases and wrinkles of age were set throughout his face, ed and elderly, though with his shoulder length white hair and bushy beard and moustache, he tended towards the 'elderly' side of the scale

Most notable about his appearance, however, were his eyes They were like two black voids co pupils, filled in with solid darkness

These strange eyes gazed forward at several large holographic screens all showing scenes of carnage wrought by variant attacks across the entire world

hell, there had even been an attack on the UF (United Front) Arctic Base

A variant threat of this scale had not been seen since the Monstering, when the titans stillpresences known in the world

Hu of the titans, had grown complacent And the price of this cohout the world

As the er wo spherical grey ball with a blue dot glowing at its center

Eency, a man of mystery who almost never showed himself in the eye of the public, responded coolly "Let them make their demands I'll entertain them"

"The Fortune Council and the United Front will request your presence as well," said the sphere, its tone neutral and yet leeched with a slight hint of interrogation "Both will place pressure upon your agency on top of requests for additional security

It is well known that before the Superior Defense Matrix's mobilization,their posts in a mass arams to censor

Public support for the AA will take a dra conservative number estia-Corporation executives in the Fortune Council alike will request significant reforms within the AA

How do you intend to approach this proble refor the sphere, but the firmness behind them made it very clear that he was dead serious

It was high tie in the AA The amount of corruption and inco an age of peace and hyper coet rooted out

Especially now When the future was so uncertain When disaster could rain down froer

But with these recent variant attacks to use as an excuse, there was nothing that could stop Eht, and he had spent yearssure that his card hand was unbeatable

"…Very well There are other matters that require my attention My communication with you will now end," said the sphere "As always, the Panopticon will support your endeavors within reason, for the safety and stability of this world is both within our prime interests"
