Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: Claw Woman's New World, New Beginning!

The strange twisting sound stopped after the unconscious Ximeizi was fixed and controlled by the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak. Looking at the surprised Jessica Jones and the obviously frightened Claw Woman, Samuel introduced them to each other.

"Jessica, this is Claw Woman."

"Claw Woman, this is Jessica Jones."

Samuel then looked at the controlled Ximeizi, pointed to her head, and said, "Her name is Ximeizi. There are some issues here, so I can only temporarily control her and let her slowly adapt."

"It's getting late, Jessica, arrange rooms for Claw Woman and Ximeizi. We can talk about anything else tomorrow."

They had a belly full of questions they wanted to ask, but Samuel looked like he was ready to rest, so they could only suppress their curiosity and save it for tomorrow.

Jessica Jones picked up the controlled Ximeizi with one hand, greeted the not-at-all-surprised Claw Woman with some surprise, and left Samuel's bedroom together.

There were many empty rooms on the second floor. While choosing rooms, Jessica Jones and Claw Woman curiously questioned and probed each other.

The more experienced Claw Woman quickly realized something was wrong. Jessica Jones didn't know Homelander, didn't know The Seven, and had never heard of Vought Company—this made her feel absurd!

Vought Company's Super Heroes had already spread globally. Even in remote and backward cities, they had their eighteen-line Super Heroes guarding them. How could she not have heard of them?

What was even more ridiculous was that this was Manhattan, and Vought Company's headquarters was in Manhattan. How could she not have heard of them? How could she not know?

The only possibility was that this was probably no longer the original World.

Claw Woman had also heard of the concept of parallel Worlds.

He, a mysterious man whose name she hadn't even asked yet, had actually brought her to another World?!

All of this was absurd yet real.

It was like a dream.

That night, some tossed and turned, unable to sleep, while others fell asleep soundly the moment their heads hit the pillow, like the myriad beings, each different.

The next day, early morning.

Using the excuse of 'I can't get up in the morning, it's not my fault, it's the bed's fault!', Samuel began to take stock of his gains from this trip after Friday informed him of what had happened during the days he was away.

Although he had only been gone for a few days, the harvest was not small.

He had obtained some abilities from Homelander, Queen Maeve, Starlight, Stretchy Man, Ximeizi, and others, and also used points to upgrade the detection range once.

Ximeizi and Claw Woman had returned with him, while Starlight and Queen Maeve could be pursued gradually.

The most crucial thing was knowing that the Super Soldier Serum could be stacked infinitely, and verifying the success rate of the injection and whether it was compatible with Compound V.

The basic goals had already been achieved, and it was time to take the first step in development.

Samuel flipped over and got out of bed, breaking free from the 'bed demon's' restraint. The glory of Viettel would begin with hiring staff—

More than an hour later, after finishing breakfast, Samuel wrote with flowing strokes. Jessica Jones and Claw Woman curiously gathered around. Jessica Jones read as she watched:

"Recruitment Notice."

"Position Qualifications: 1. Familiar with the local terrain. 2. Hardworking, careful, and conscientious. 3. Obedient to management, brave to challenge and compete. 4. Healthy, no bad habits. 5. China nationals preferred."

"Salary and Benefits: Three-month probation period, $800/month during probation. After Regularization, $2000/month. The company provides free uniforms and work-related equipment."

"Best candidates will be selected, first come, first served."

"Salary and Benefits: Three-month probation period, $1000/month during probation. After Regularization, $2200/month."

Jessica Jones watched Samuel finish writing the company address and contact number, smacked her lips, and said, "Your recruitment notice sounds so professional. By the way, what kind of work are we doing?"

"First, you'll be couriers, and there will be other arrangements later."

In the free U.S., gun battles happen every day. Before the Super Soldier army is trained, Super Humans like Jessica Jones and Claw Woman are needed to open up the situation, to avoid being zero-dollar purchased.

Samuel had already decided that before the staff was trained, he would only carry out express delivery services, which is rapid delivery within the same district, gradually radiating from Manhattan throughout New York.

"Claw Woman, your treatment is the same as Jessica's. During the probation period, food and accommodation are provided. After Regularization, it's $3000 per month."

"I have no objection."

Although Claw Woman was once popular, she didn't have much savings after quickly becoming outdated, and was even close to being unable to pay the rent for her apartment.

$3000 is not a lot, but in this brand new and unfamiliar new World, she was already very content. After all, in the original World, it wouldn't have been easy for her to find a job for $3000, unless—
