Continuation of the previous chapter.
After a few minutes, they all went up, while the soldiers who went through the experiment put on the clothes Leon had already prepared in advance.
Going to the training ground, Leon looked at General Eiling and said:
[General, did you come armed?] (Leon).
[Yes] (General Eiling).
[Your pistol must be a 9mm Beretta, correct?] (Leon).
[Yes] (General Eiling).
[This is excellent, point the gun at any of them and shoot] (Leon) said winning the surprise of everyone present.
Looking around Leon said:
[No need to worry, their skins are low-caliber bulletproof, the bullets won't even scratch them, much less leave injuries] (Leon).
Listening to Leon, and getting greedy when thinking about the possibilities, Eiling didn't even hesitate before drawing his gun and shooting 6 of the test subjects, only to see the bullets hit him and fall without causing any damage.
[As you can see, the procedure made their skin impervious to damage from low caliber guns, however, High caliber guns can cause heavy injuries] (Leon).
As Leon finished speaking, President Smith said:
[Are there any side effects?] (President Smith).
[No, I'm not a monster that does inhumane experiments with innocents, don't compare me to that kind of scum, I guarantee that anything I do for people to use will be totally without negative effects] (Leon) said aggressively to the president.
As soon as the President heard Leon's tone, he remembered his past and understood that he had stepped on a bomb.
[I'm sorry Leon, that's not what I meant] (President Smith).
Taking a deep breath Leon "calmed down" and said;
[Continuing the explanation, soldiers have about 5X the gross physical capabilities of an ordinary soldier, in addition to having a healing factor that allows them to recover from fatigue and injuries much faster] (Leon).
[Their senses have been adjusted, but if they focus on them, they can improve their Senses by up to 5X too] (Leon).
[The procedure grants muscle memory equivalent to that of soldiers who have spent their entire lives fighting wars, making them specialists in hand-to-hand combat instantly] (Leon).
[They are also immune to most poisons, and only a few potent ones can affect them] (Leon).
[I will let the soldiers themselves demonstrate what they are capable of now] (Leon).
After saying this Leon simply signaled to the soldiers, who started to do the exercises and to practice with weapons.
The final results were overwhelming, increasing all attributes by 5X, did not do something like a more capable 5X Soldier.
The increase in attributes was exponential.
A soldier with 5X the attributes of others was the equivalent of a better soldier 25X.
Seeing the results up close made everyone present understand Leon's worth.
[And this is the end of my demonstration] (Leon).
[Now, I'm going to go home, if you want my services I already explained my price, now everything is up to you] (Leon)
Taking out a card with a number Leon placed it on a table and said:
[Here is my card, feel free to contact me if you decide to meet my conditions] (Leon) said and left the room.
After that, he went to a car that was already prepared and started driving to his Hotel in Central City.
All those present did not stop him, as they were still shocked by his demonstration, they were still trying to understand how this was possible.
After recovering for a few minutes, the president looked at Amanda and said:
[Amanda, we need him on our side, I don't care anymore about the conditions he presented accepted and put him to work as soon as possible]. (President Smith)
[Provide whatever resources he needs, I want a new generation of soldiers ready by next year] (President Smith) said in an unyielding tone of command.
[From that second on, you will act as my direct advisor and you receive orders only from me from now on, you will also act as Leon and Hassan's supervisor, I want constant reports of what he creates, and about how Hassan is acting I am being, am i clear?] (President Smith).
[Yes sir] (Amanda) said with a calm smile.
At that moment, she had gotten what she wanted and had a place at the big table.
Looking around The President said:
[General Eiling I want you to vacate 4 military bases with research resources including this one later this year and give them command to Leon] (President Smith).
[Just as I want you to find the most loyal among the soldiers, and make sure they get through the project, also start cleaning up the spies in our armed forces, this matter cannot leave this room] (President Smith).
[No doubt sir, I understand exactly the importance of the matter] (General Eiling)
If Eiling still had a grudge against Hassan before, then the grudge died.
In a world where Metahumans were emerging like cabbage, and couldn't be confronted before, the importance of a project like the one Leon came up with was simply insane.
With this project in hand, the American government would have an effective weapon against Metahumans, and if what Leon described earlier was true, its importance would be even greater.
At that time Eiling was shitting to the face of the army with the Hassan incident.
He would keep Leon on the side of the American government at all costs.
[Amanda provides Leon with a house in this city, and make sure he is safe from any threat, if need be, call Task Force X for this] (President Smith).
[I will make sure that Leon has the best security possible, at this moment he became the most valuable resource for the country] (Amanda).
Looking at Waller at that moment Eiling said:
[I admit Waller, I was wrong and you were right, Leon is too valuable as a resource to get lost] (Eiling).
Hearing Eiling, the president nodded before looking around and saying:
[Very well guys, at that moment we just got our hands on the biggest chicken that lays golden eggs in the world, let's make sure it stays alive and provides the eggs for us] (President Smith).
Looking at the Minister of Technology, President Smith said:
[Gather the 30 brightest minds among our scientists, and order an immediate transfer, they will work alongside Leon, and I want them to learn everything they can while they are at it] (President Smith).
[I will guarantee that they will be here in no more than a week] (Minister of Technology).
[Sir, on this subject, I have a proposal about a candidate that I've been assessing out] (Amanda).
Listening to Waller, the President said:
[Who is she?] (President Smith).
[Caitlin Snow, a Bio-Engineer who works for the S.T.A.R. currently] (Amanda).
[Why do you want her on the team?] (President Smith).
[To use her as a possible lever to manipulate Leon sir] (Amanda) said with a calculating smile.
