Chapter 166
It was a cave that I moved down a little under the ground. It was originally at a depth of fifty meters, but I placed it two hundred meters down and to the left one and a half hundred. Away from the river. Fortunately, Doton is at my level, and I have pumped Doton: Earth Displacement and Doton: Breaking the Ground by 29 levels. However, this effort and nerve was worth a lot. The cave itself was not that big, but the Wayne Manor would fit in it. I made an exit in two places, I also placed a seal that served as a kind of teleport from it (glory to the inventor of fuinjutsu). And my tags are scattered around the database separately.
Nigma installed the latest computers and devices that served us as a guarantor of security and "concealment" from external threats, I came here to complete its improvement with my fuinjutsu. And it is worth placing some of the trophies from Nande Parbat and Bealia. I have accumulated a lot of barrels of the same type and not so much, and I do not need them in the Inventory yet. So, let them stay here.
By the way, it will be necessary to think about new weapons and the money issue. After all, the Alliance will need a constant cash flow.
In addition to the "command center", we had a couple of warehouses, a bathroom (3 pieces), several gyms for my training, and soon for training other members of the Alliance. As well as rooms for rest-living. In one of them, by the way, Nygma lived now. In the future, if expansion is needed, then Doton will help. Or he can still use a more gemorny option - to change his habitat. But this is not yet required.
Isaac? - Nygma turned to me in a more serious tone. - Has the government already approached you?
- Yes, an hour ago I met with a certain Amanda Waller.
"Suicide Squad?"
- Yes. She offered to become their commander. Although she spoke of "commanding a group of freaks." And Argus has only one such team, if I'm not mistaken.
- According to the information available to me, I also stand on this. Quite an unusual idea, although maybe they took an example from the Stalinist "penal battalions" of the Second World War? - already asked the question to the ceiling. - Although this is not so important. Waller acted in a very interesting and creative way, although it is too early to talk about the results. As far as I know, this team of "super villains" lost their past commander not without the well-known Colonel Flag: he was removed from command due to an incident in the Middle East. He didn't put down almost half of his subordinates because of his old enemy-friend Rustam, who was once on the same team with him. They were even friends and teammates in the squadron. True, Rustam betrayed him and went under the arm of the "Jihad". However, I will not fill your brains with unnecessary information, if you are interested, I have a detailed dossier on both of them, I have already uploaded them to the database.
- Are you interested in something else? - I was a little surprised.
- Yes. These are two main questions. The first is financial. Of course, it is not as burning as the second one, but nevertheless it will become important in the future. The question of funds. We will need a mechanism for obtaining the organization's livelihood and functioning. And this, as you know, is the purchase of uniforms, weapons, possibly technologies, materials, as well as bribery of people and the extraction of information, and in that spirit. And besides, there will be a need for a scheme to "launder" that money so that they do not connect us with anything or anyone.
- Well, about the extraction of money, here I will take it upon myself. I think we will organize several companies for the extraction of minerals. My strength allows me to still interact with the earth, and therefore I can understand where the reserves of non-ferrous metals, oil, gas and so on are hidden. Yes, and you can buy shares of small but profitable companies that will be used to support the life of the Alliance. The "laundering" scheme is even easier to arrange. Night clubs and casinos. I recently came up with the idea for Harley to open our own nightclub, but more refined than the typical youth dens. And soon it should start working. After D-Day. - I noticed a surprised and interested look of Nigma, but raised my palm up as a sign "it will wait." - According to the same scheme, you can open others, and not only in Gotham. But also all over the world. Also games on the stock exchange. Although you and I will have a lot of work in the future and it will be silly to do "dancing by the fire". Therefore, these old, but proven methods, I think, will do. Second question?
