Arcanum wiped away the oil that Giza so kindly sprayed on her. Most of it ended up being absorbed into her body.
One of the heroes shouted something and then Peace. . . ran away? No wait, for some reason there were two of her. The fake one left first and kept warping around or whatever. Honestly, Arcanum had no idea what was going on anymore. For all she knew, this could be part of the magical girl's power, or even a completely unrelated super who happened to show up. A similar situation happened back at the attempted jailbreak, but who knew if this was caused by the same person? Probably, but it didn't matter either way.
So far this distraction was turning out alright. While Arcanum would like to continue debating with the trio, it had nothing to do with her objective. Right now she was still on the clock, and would easily get sidetracked herself if they went at it for real. Maybe later, when those guys were actually trying to do good, not just talking about what they wanted. When they had something to lose, then they would listen.
Pride looked around for whatever it was the Faker wanted to warn them about, but didn't see anything. Acting as though she did find a threat, she pointed at one of the nearby buildings. “Seems I'm not the only one who disagrees. It's time you realized just how much they all hate people like us.”

[Time for Option 2]
What's this now?
Arcanum spotted an abandoned gun lying on the roof of a building. It appeared to be some form of sniper rife, which had its sights lined up with ruined press conference. While it wouldn't be enough to seriously harm her, the mere fact it was there bothered her.
Someone else had plans to interfere whatever ended up down below. Whoever planned on using this was ready to go before anyone even attacked the place. Of course they weren't expecting to deal with an nearly-invincible slime girl, but that didn't mean she was safe. Half the time, she left an easily identifiable mess that could probably be analyzed to figure out some kind of countermeasure. Maybe.
Eventually a police officer arrived at the scene, but by then the gun was already digesting insider her. This required further investigation, as soon as her mandatory service ended and—
A phone tucked away inside Pleasure's body started vibrating as it received a new message. That was the signal. Her job was done here. The Vices each bowed to their opponents. “Soon” Pain started, “You will observe how fragile their trust of you really is.”
The trio began to melt back to the floor and slid off to the next appointment. Before fully leaving, they gave one final warning. “This city is destined for destruction.”

Giza felt relief when the doppelganger of the Three Stooges decided to leave for some reason, but not before they let out their generic threat to the “heroes” and melted away through the still-burning stage. He turned at the Stooges and shook his head; typical Bulwark, they doesn’t even try to protect the innocent people in the chaos like the speech they just made. Though to be fair, he decided to rain on their parade because of how obnoxious their speech for peace and understanding were.
As he was about to leave the Bulwark to their mess, he caught a glimpse of a certain police officer who decided to run away from the scene rather than staying behind. He found this behavior rather odd, since the police supposed to calm the panic-crowd from any type of super attack, so he decided to follow him. It took him some time, but Giza managed to tail this police officer back to a small empty alleyway before calling someone over the phone.
What he heard from the police was truly shocking, even more than finding out the plot-twist behind his favorite book. Realizing he accidentally stumble upon something dangerous and juicy, as soon as the police officer finished reporting to his “superior”, Giza immediately knock him unconscious. Giza then striped the unconscious guy from any kind of electronic device before lifted him up and carry him back to the Horde. He isn’t sure if this was why that Goo Lady decided to attack the press conference, but he need to tell Miss Aurora about this quickly.
