Chapter 257 V Correspondence 2

"The ets for the authorities to push us down," said Aldrich "With this level ofshort of a widely broadcasted public hearing won't be accepted by the public And I can't i would drive up

People are getting desperate, it see up and they want so new, not just the S rankers they're already fa about the whole public nature of this that's a downside," said V She frowned a bit, her brows knitting together in concentration "Hey, Fisky, I sent you the deets about the hearing You break it down yet?"

"Uh, uh yeah" Fisk's voice came from a corner of the room "I was just a little busy"

"Busy?" V raised a brow "Busy playing those weeb gaht, just hit ames have artistic merit, you know," co plot, I'll tell you that" V paused for adata "Anyways, the huge attention froh end officials, both AA and gov, are going to be the judges

I have a finalized list of people for you that Fisk sent me that I'll forward to you now You can take a look at it when you have ti," said Aldrich as he briefly glanced at the docu the list of na, split roughly evenly 24 to 24 aovernment There were 2 Panopticon Arbiters, former operators turned into policy advisors, too

On the government side, Aldrich saw none ithout influence The vice president of the US was there as well as the secretary of the department of defense, to name a few Similarly ranked officials from countries like China and India made it as well

The AA had sent a host of notable executives as well froed fro There were also popular retired heroes, s were at their worst, turned policy advisors

This included quite a few heroes that Aldrich revered as a kid, looking at their co so other than a powerless waste of life

Fore theuard's tea from Crystallization and confined to a wheelchair, but even if his powers, power that could once freeze the ment was still sharp

Aldrich was in for one hell of a questioning But the good thing was he did not think he had cause to use Fler'Gan's potion any meant that overall, they were ready to accept Aldrich Maybe not as a Sentinel - he would have to argue for that - but definitely as some kind of hero

There was no way so many officials with sopart of a trial that threw Thanatos to the curb

Had the hearing been ed, Aldrich would not have hesitated to use Fler'Gan's potion and initiate so either his unknown forces or the Death Lord's, though he probably had to give her a favor for that to happen

With the threat of an attack loo, Aldrich would have used the potion, its effects amplified by situations of intense emotion like the type felt under survival situations, to sway the hearing to his side

But noith the public fully behind Aldrich, the potion beca h Aldrich could pass by practically all of theic based powers, there was always the off chance of so him

Aldrich would still have Fler'Gan make it Perhaps to use on the nomad chiefs Whatever the case, it was a useful tool to have Plus, the Geist's efforts would have all gone to waste otherwise

"V, keep tabs on that list Notify s You've analyzed the server I directed you to again, right? You still can't crack it?"

"That thing? It's impossible," said V "It has security the likes of I've never seen before, and II'm completely unfamiliar with If you saw it in the Cyberverse, you'd see it as soin to unravel it

The only thing that works is a biouy I've been keeping track of"

"" Aldrich wondered how Elaine had enius, but was she really that enius that she could create security ht specialized in infiltration?

That was the biggest reason why Aldrich risked so much to come to Redrock He wanted the secret behind what this personal server was Elaine's spirit had not ated it, the bigger theit became

"Anyways, Randall's holed up in a shack in the city outskirts I'll scan the area around you andto deal with pesky bounty hunters and the like

You better pay ht now Techno work and being your navigator, too" said V

"I'll try and get more technos to help you out when I can," said Aldrich "And thanks Try and gettrip to Randall I know his health isn't the greatest, and I don't want hiot it, boss," said V "Can I call you that? Boss? It sounds super official, you know, and if we're going to be soht"

"Sure" Aldrich nodded, ?"

"He's been in contact withto draw any attention to hi's over Probably because he sees the ne and sees that there's a real good chance Thanatos gets accepted If he meets Thanatos now, that's sus, but if it's after Thanatos is an established big shot naet me?"
