Hello everybody and welcome to another episode of villain underground. I am your game master Alex cater And I am here with three of the four best people on earth Cody. Hi. I'm apparently one of the best people on earth Maybe one of the one of the four.

Oh, okay, Phillip. I love beef stroganoff And Frederick, what's up everybody? I have nothing would you say that was pretty good It's it seems tradition that we're always missing at least one person or the last couple times anyway So we'll listen here with us today, but we have Fred back and I'm happy about that We had a last time we had black like a less talking about So he was all over the place Everywhere he was indeed um who did the recap last time I did I swear to god I did I'm not lying this day Alright, so I guess that leaves either will or Cody and unless will is gonna interrupt what he's doing right now Explain what happened last episode on villain or the last time on filling underground some things happened We tried to do a job for zero tolerance I remember we tried to get some cloning data or something from a building. We were like yeah, let's do this You know, it's fine.

We should do this. We had a bunch of plans some plans failed some plans didn't go through but uh After some heroes came by we decided on a plan that mr. Donaldson should ramp his car into the heroes bicycles as a distraction while me and Robonobo went up to the roof and Black Legolas went into the door and got the thing With his plan more or less except for a robo nobo got beat the shit out of it. I got teleported to Africa While black Legolas aka goled arrow walks in like oh discusses with the other hero.

We're like hey Why don't you go help them out? I've got everything covered here Walks in takes the stuff and then just leaves with mr. Donaldson like nothing ever happened Yeah, yeah, it was a super it was a super easy. He said I don't know what you guys were so concerned about I did it in record time Except for robo nobo got beat the shit out of and now apparently he's out of commission What what be up robo was it like superheroes?

Was it the automatic is yes? There were four heroes called the automatic is that he fought? Almost single-handedly You were like it's two one four I was like no it's one on four I've done anything and Phil kept saying to the rest of them that weren't up there. He should go up there and help you friends Right Sounds like you should all go up there and fight that robot monkey.

So I'll stay down here So did you so that group of superheroes is another group you DM right? No, that would know that was it's a NPC got it got it. Okay, but there is another group that's like good people So eventually there's a possibility that like our two paths will merge and we'll fight each other look Fred Fred You already giving over the cross over episode Yeah, yes, there's a chance if you if you go down certain paths that you will interact and things you guys are doing are already Crossing over the episode that's coming out tomorrow of amberville. They find out about you guys.

So there's that huh? What's bullshit? Oh, well, you're gonna have to fucking listen We need to get stronger so we get kicked in with your ass All right, so why wasn't I there? Did you guys kind of like do anything about that?

You weren't there golden arrow kept doing things and telling people that his name was black like well, yeah You just have like started without me being there right? We said that you were in the basin that you were getting a bow made Yeah, and then they took off into the thing and then they when they got back your bow had been finished But Robo no bow is in in disrepair. So God The other major thing. Oh, yeah Cody got since it's South Africa made it back I try to make a cartel, but apparently might help it prevents me from doing that.

Oh, yeah One of Cody's big flaws is that he can't eat unless mr. Donaldson's near because he has the other key to his helmet So the fact that they were on different continents really messed up his eating schedule He's my butler. Oh, God Yeah, so you guys are you're there in the in the committee of chaos is based You got back your tolerance thought you guys did a pretty decent job And then oh, yeah, also another thing he was like all right now you're not gonna trust you and you said give me the hardest work You can I said harder work that hardest No, you were like oh dude give me the I can handle anything Which was real dumb but Let's see it's worked out for us like the going the dumb route has not hurt us so far right Okay, so yeah, you're all there. I'm Robonobo is with mr.

Donaldson. I think wasn't that what happened or no Golden arrow was with mr. Donaldson, right? Yeah Mr.

It's me. Yeah, I'm glad I lost I'm just so sorry.

It's the uh The uh It's a little disturbing when you switch back and forth like that all the time We actually might have Need of that accent again. I uh, I think I have a mission that we need to go on Absolutely. You need to you need to be an Asian kid. You want me to do yellow face and act like an Asian shit I mean if that's what you want to call it.

I I guess Uh, Donaldson. I thought you were supposed to get the door. Why am I getting the door Donaldson? He's still nursing his broken ribs and busted faces like I'm sorry.

It seems like he has a concussion We have segues for a reason Donaldson geez Anyway, follow me. I guess build an arrow. Is it with you? No, he's he's back at the base.

I don't know. He'll be trifling He gets out of his new phone writes down trifling. What does what does that mean with the kids these days? No Like insignificant man.

I trip him insignificant. I like I like that one. Okay trifle So uh he takes him back to the war room And there's like this big huge table. It's like a microsoft surface And he's gonna like start like putting some files away a poof and then he's gonna bring up another file That's gonna label that's label triad Um, how old character what is poof do I know that or is that something I learned later?

That's the poof she was uh one of the enemone of he is got got Um and codey is apparently obsessed with her. So no, it's as obsessed with her. Okay Um, so what happened to Roman Olo? On our last mission we We had a quite a few complications.

He was beaten pretty badly and there was nothing I could do about it I Yeah, I'm sorry. I should have been there. I would have had your back Oh, no, it's okay. We had golden arrow to help us out.

It was perfectly fine. Just kind of like exaggerate that Well, it was perfectly fine Roman Olo would be good right now I think what you would say here was I think you'd be getting my drift Uh got it. I'm getting your drift I'm gonna use that right. Anyway, you're gonna open up a triad folder and kind of like slide over a picture This is Lao Chen.

I believe you know him from the triads Um, you know, I'm blind bro Wait, I assume you got a picture. Why the hell did I buy this? Wait the stable in front of me? Yes, it has a screen on time it I buy you night vision goggles It probably looked pretty cool on me, but uh, you know, I got permanent night vision, right?

I guess I can't see I'm blind. I thought you knew that It slips my mind. You walk around so well. Anyway, I assume that you know Lao Chen one of the uh top brass of the triads Yeah, I know, though He's got he's got under his contract to hacker And I think that we can use her on my big plan.

I'm planning on stealing robo no bose actual creator He was an artificial intelligence man here in just phd from harvard and after that he went strangely to the covergirl corporation Which for we have regions that are pharmaceutical company. I'm not sure why they hired an ai professor Regardless, they made robo no boe and I'm trying to I want him. I want dr. Kesh and once we have dr.

Kesh We can start building our own army of robo no boes And then we can work on my master plan the underground base I've been building and he makes a motion on the table that like as it goes like halfway across table is that crap your blind Those are blueprints. I'll put them out later for you to I'm gonna have to invest in braille or something I mean you can just explain it to me. Yeah, it's it's it looks it looks magnificent. It's an underground layer It's brilliant.

It has missile nevermind. So so what do you want me to do? I want you to get close to Lao Chen And I want you to figure out who this hacker exactly is And I want you to get her under our payroll I wasn't sure if maybe we should go together. Maybe till I was sent to confront him directly or maybe work on the cover He already knows my alter ego Well, you know, I've done it once I could probably do it again.

So now I think I could do this for you I mean obviously since we were we're frozen, you know, there's obviously some kind of compensation involved Have I been a man of my word? Have I always paid you? Well, I don't know if I would say man, but you've always paid me Uh semantics you're out of character. You're like seven years old, right?

I'm he's like 13. Okay. All right. He picks up like a little thing of like apple juice kind of like swings it around I was hoping golden arrow could assist you since his capabilities could be useful, but I mean you might want to talk to him He didn't feel me He's at the gym He seems to have a connection with the chaos committee.

I don't approve of All right back to golden arrow golden arrow. You're sitting there. You're fixing up the gym Um a guy walks in kind of a really super casual dress wearing like a t-shirt and some shorts Um, he walks in. He's like hey you wanted the new guy's hanging around Yeah, uh named's golden arrow.

What's up? You want to get a pump on? Uh, sure. Why not?

Can we talk business? Yeah, sure you want a spot? Sure. He spots you He seems all right.

He's a little bit long and shagging. He's got kind of like a a gruff beard She's like uh, my name's Fang and I heard that uh you're taking jobs and I was wondering if you guys wanted to go on a job with me Yeah, I mean, yeah, what do you got? There's uh these two people they're transporting some rings and uh, they're pretty valuable They got this information through a secret source So I know where they're going to be And I want to head them off before they get where they want to go And they're pretty powerful, but we I don't care if you kill them. I mean kill them if you want to if that's your thing I don't care.

I'm just in it to get those rings Who you roll with? Uh, I roll with the the committee usually when we do big stuff but for stuff like this, I'd be on my own and uh Because I mean this is just for me, but I'm asking you like if you want to join me on it Consider it so you get the rings. What do I get? Uh, well, you get a percentage of what I sell them for How much we talking?

They're uh one of the kind magical items. I mean anybody that gets one gets power boost, man So I mean I heard they take a while to learn to use but once you have it, it's it's pretty dope So they're they're like mystic artifacts All right Well, if I'm gonna trust you I'm gonna need you to hit this and help point towards a barbell or yeah barbell Loaded up with weights and he needs you to lift the weights to show you're in the club He's like, man. You need me to lift weights to prove him in the club. Yeah, man Not the chaos committee the beef palace club I whatever he lifts weights like it I take notice that he is strong issue He's he's he's mildly strong for his size.

He's not like super strong. I got like three plates loaded up on a bench press I'm excited. He doesn't seem as strong as you. Okay.

Good. Good. Good. I'm like, um, But you have some bros, right?

They want to come along. I gotta text them. They're back at uh, or other chill pad All right. Yeah, just uh, I'll be around here Let me know when you're willing to go, but I only know where they're gonna be for the next two days So next two days.

It's actually probably late day. Yeah, all right. He's doing likes I like how deep in thought bill is like, yeah, it's the legs that's what he's saying Well, it's barbell squat jumps. So he's got like a box that he's you know doing barbell squats and then he jumps to the box Get those fast twitch muscles going.

Um, um So after he's done with his workout, so probably another 45 minutes or so he'll text knocks and be like Uh Can I come over? Question mark is gonna text back. Yo dog. Of course you can you always know you can chill out my palace All right, so I probably get uber or something like that and make my way over there You guys use uber a lot Yeah, all right You are Yeah, you are at the um you are there you are at the place.

Yeah, cool. All right. See you later. Just walk down And then he'll walk down the hallway and like take the first door on the right And then I'll pop his head in back in to the hallway and be like hey, uh, where's he at?

Knocks. Oh, he points you in directions. He's in the foyer. He's in there over that way.

Oh, okay In the meeting room. So he goes the exact opposite direction that he was going. Okay, he meets up with an allson There not allson knocks Uh golden arrow has also not showered. Yeah, um, he does have his gym bag with his uh outfit in there Is it like offensive?

Is it mildly alluring? Hold on. I'm gonna roll for a pump like how big of a pump I got I got a three. It wasn't a hard day.

So you're like medium not like like you can smell somebody sweaty But it's not like oh god that guy sweaty as fuck. Yeah, I feel I feel like Fred's questions are very personable Like I guess it's gonna be a learning if you find sweat attractive. Yeah, exactly. I don't know which way Like I lost fine sweat.

So well, it's because he's blind. So it's the smell, you know, yeah, it's like very intense for him It's like oh, he did say it was leg day. So he's sweating kind of downward in the lower region So a little bit of a fast he's got that swamp ass going Yeah So when someone enters the war room that can actually see it just easy like a bunch of really nice furniture Just pushed to one side of the room which have like tables up turned and in the middle of the uh room is just This like surface table That has like a screen on the top of it that you can like see a bunch of like files opened up on it And uh black like else anymore talking and as soon as he walks in the door knocks kind of stops and looks over it Not no like mask or anything just like this little teenage boy trying to mean mug him with pimples on his face Glad you can join us golden arrow Yeah, you're welcome. Uh just gotta get pump in um what's going on?

I was just informing black leglesses of one of my newer plans Oh cool. Um hit me with it and then uh golden arrow is gonna start doing some static stretching Really keep everything loose. It's important after workout. I don't know why that's funny.

Do you have to do that in here? Yeah, it's like it's It helps it elongates the muscles so it makes it better Like I just worked out. Did you not hear that part? This is for your guys benefit too like this isn't just for me.

Why did you use the beef palace here? Well, I have to examine the entire beef palace as in its current state beef palace too Get a real feel for it to see how I can improve it So You are setting up one down the hall. There's one here. There's one in the town that I bought for you.

Yeah, so okay Okay, we just got a Chinatown. No, please get to work on takes me How long uh how long is this gonna take? Is it something we can do like tonight? From what I know love chen should be at one of his places his bars in town.

I'm not sure if it's a Baro dance club all I know is it's called the chinese shuang Cool. Yeah, because uh there's a guy back at the chaos committee. It's only about these dope ass magic rings Basically like he wants us to help him with like a job. I didn't I kind of said yeah, we would um You took another job Well, yeah, you guys didn't tell me we had another job.

I gotta make money somehow. I pay you. What do I pay you for? Doing jobs and this is extra money Fine We can do this tomorrow Like that's the good part about this like how this situation is working out Because we do your stuff tonight and then we do his stuff tomorrow These are dope ass magic rings apparently they make you stronger Like when you wear them like they increase like how much you can lift and all that kind of stuff So So like I mean it helps he's gonna give us a percentage apparently a lot because they're magic rings So We don't have to take it.

You can go talk to him yourself and some we're not gonna take it you want His name's fang Did you say he was from the chaos committee? Yeah, yes I guess it would be okay a little extra cash from the side isn't Exactly hurt, but I would really like to focus on Getting this hacker from Lao Shen Can I hit the shower? Yes, you're fending everyone cool. No, take a shower Clean get dressed up into his uniform So like as you get out of the shower There's gonna be like a dnd book It's a dms guide and there's going to be it open up to the magic items section and a note on it that says Are you serious magic fucking rings and then has a little note inside of it like he doesn't believe him?

I think we get money But here's my question to you is that if you don't get the rings you want other people to have these rings Well, we'll sell him here's what I'm thinking fang look like a little baby string boy We could kick his ass and just take the rings. Okay. I like what we don't have to Like I guess it takes a while to like for the strength to come through Um, so I don't know and then you'd be kind of cool. We could take the money to we could take the money and the rings Yeah, yeah, yeah, like oh we could actually have him sell them Beat up the person he sold him to and then take the rings.

Yeah, give him the double fist. Yeah Tooned fist Yeah, let's do it. Let's go Wait, that's hard. Yeah That's boring.

I wonder the ring thing Okay, both I'm already the outcast in the group. I'm leaning into it Now we said we're gonna do that thing with Knox. So you gotta all set up me. Yeah, no Knox.

Yes, okay All right, you guys are going to full uniform to the bar Wait, I thought we were gonna try to infiltrate them Well, Knox is gonna be in uniform until he knows otherwise.

That's what we were gonna discuss in the car So did you did you want to infiltrate them this way or did you want to face Lao Chen directly? I mean, it's up to you. I'm good either way I'm not very experienced with the triad. So, you know, if you got some street clothes, you know, I could try to try to blend in with them You know what I'm saying be one with a triad.

So you don't do my thing Don't understand we can stop stop by the beef palace and I can change clothes Do you think they would accept someone with my stature? Well, I mean kind of white dog. I mean, I don't think it would work Did you did you have a instant tan in the beef palace too or is that not a thing? I gave you money for a tanning room, didn't I?

No, I guess that's what worked then I thought that's what bodybuilders did. They they built up their body and then they tan themselves for competitions Think I'm gonna put myself out there and let everybody know I'm like y'all already putting yourself out there enough Exactly. So they know the biggest beefcake at those competitions is the biggest beefcake running around in a super hero super villain costume Does that make sense dog? All right.

Okay What is the bar's name now? The bar's name now is the watering hole And it seems like there's a number of dudes in uh in outfits and costumes It already seems like we will be fitting in. I'm hoping management hasn't changed.

It looks like a lot of these guys are like lower rent sure So you're trying to explain that this is like a supervillain bar or is it a regular bar that people are dressed up as supervillains It's a super god Well, Knox, is this the place? I'm assuming so that name has changed since i've been here last but for the most part i hope Lao Chen still owns the place I've had this a lot of these files are from back from when my father was still around Who knows when he got out of the business?

Well, you just asked one of the bouncers Is the why do I have you hired? He's a big man and he could crush me The the bouncer's actually medium sized Japanese man. Not a big guy Oh, he's still bigger than you Knox, but he's not as big as the golden arrow Like so you want me asking the phone or so Please i'll walk up to him to be like hey is a loud chin around loud He taps into your piece. He's like yeah got something here Okay, all right, okay.
