Chapter 129: Suspected Gems
Now the world of 2099 has been completely controlled by a group of supervillains led by Norman Osborne.
After the end of the Civil War, the superheroes were greatly weakened. The supervillains have preserved their strength intact, and even said that their strength has gone further.
Norman Osborne carried out the arrest and killing of the remaining superheroes, whose names are war crimes.
The remaining superheroes, because of the civil war, can't trust each other quickly, and they are all on the side of the enemy. There was no way to condense together to form a fist in an instant, which led to everyone being broken one by one by Norman Osborne.
By 2020, the last superhero was also killed by Norman Osborne. Since then, there has been no power in the whole world to rival him.
However, because of the death of Tony Stark in this world, the Ark Reactor was not promoted. New energy is far away, and now the world's oil and gas resources are on the verge of exhaustion. Even if other resources such as combustible ice are mined, it is estimated that it will not last long.
In the era of superheroes, there were also many talented superscientists. But those superscientists are often on the side of superheroes, they do not obey Norman Osborne's command, so they face these scientists in order to ensure the supremacy of his power. Norman Osborne, who mercilessly raised the butcher's knife against these helpless scientists.
This led to the advancement of science and technology being postponed for an entire era. This is why Li Jie and others came to the world of 2099, but they did not feel that this world has become better than the world they are in.
There is no helium-3 mined here, no, a base between the Earth and the Moon has been established, there is no qualitative breakthrough in controlled nuclear fusion technology, the Ark reactor has disappeared, and there is no hyperloop to connect the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa.
There will be no civil society like the Justice League to maintain community policing and reduce urban crime rates.
Now the world of 2099 is like a hotbed of crime, and many people have lost sight of the hope of the future.
As Miguill said, a country as strong as the United States is fine. Some countries in Africa, South America and Asia have had to limit their people's electricity and oil consumption because of the depletion of resources. Gross National Happiness plummeted.
On the other hand, the price of basic crops such as food in the world has skyrocketed because of the depletion of resources.
Because modern agriculture is inseparable from all kinds of energy supplies. For example, the use of combine harvesters requires oil, the production of fertilizers and pesticides in fertilizer plants requires electricity, and the materials that provide these raw materials also require the use of energy.
The soaring price of food has led to the collapse of the economic system of many countries.
"The world sucks. This is the only feeling that Li Jie has after listening to Miquere's account of the world of 2099.
According to Miquael, the world is on the verge of collapse in 2099. In another 100 years, this world will develop in 100 years, maybe only a few decades, and it will become a doomsday world like the one in the Fist of the Big Dipper.
Maybe the drag racing scene in "Mad Max" will really be staged on Route 66 in the United States.
"Yes, the world is very bad, that's why we need to resist Norman Osborne. We have to overthrow his rule, or else. The life of this world is short, and perhaps in our generation, we will be able to see the end of this world. Roberta, the captain of the American women's team, agrees with Li Jie's statement, the world is terrible, Roberta doesn't like the world, but she has to face the world.
She even said that she had to change the world because she was a mother of two. If the world does not change, then the future of their children will have to survive in a more cruel world, and that struggle may not have the hope of seeing tomorrow.
Everyone listened to Miquel's story, whether it was Strange, Brian, or Arashi, all three of them had to admit it. Their world is much better than this one.
Of the three, only Lan knows best what Li Jie has contributed to his world. If it weren't for the various things that Li Jie promoted behind the scenes, maybe the world he was in would have become the same world as this 2099 in the future.
"We need to overthrow Osborne's rule, and if he still rules the world, we won't have a good life. Roberta's remarks, the U.S. female captain, won the approval of everyone, at least judging by Miquael's remarks, Norman Osborne is simply the evil of this world.
"I don't want to pour cold water on it, but we seem to have a bigger problem. Even if it could overthrow Norman Osborne's rule, the world is now on the verge of running out of energy. Even if Norman Osborne is killed and all his companies are destroyed, will the world be able to turn back?" asked Brian in a very sinister sentence.
This is also the question that Roberta, the captain of the American women, is very unwilling to face, that is, can killing Norman Osbourne really save the world?
Compared to Roberta's silence. Miquair looked a little more confident.
He said: "Although Norman Osborne is arrogant and unstoppable. But he also has to face the problem that the world is running out of energy, and his good days are coming to an end, and he has to solve this problem. ”
"Solving the energy problem will not only make his rule longer, but also make his rule stronger. When the time comes, he will rule not just the United States, but the entire planet. Because he has mastered the new energy, all the people must obey him. Miquel raised the USB flash drive in his hand and said.
And that's the key. I had heard a long time ago when I was working at Alchemy, that the Osborne Group had never stopped researching and developing new energy sources. Recently, I received news that the Osborne Group seems to have made a breakthrough in the research and development of new energy. After Li Jie and the others heard so much bad news about the world, what Miquel said was the only good news.
Whether new energy was invented by Norman Osborne or Tony Stark, at least the birth of new energy can continue the life of this world. Save countless people.
"If it's true, then we're going to have access to the technology. Roberta, the captain of the American women's team, said categorically.
"If Norman is allowed to master this technology and promote it, then the world will never see the light of day, and he will always live under his clutches. ”
"So I hope there will be more like-minded people to help us, and any resistance group is welcome to join us. Miquel pointed to Li Jie and the four of them.
"If you really want to restore order in this world, like us, so that the moral justice and human conscience of the past can be restored. Then we need to do more. ”
Li Jie has not yet spoken, but Brian has already spoken. Although he is older than Li Jie, he is more like a hot-blooded teenager than Li Jie, and after listening to so many words, he said almost without thinking: "We will do our best to save this world." ”
Li Jie resisted the urge to roll his eyes and save the world? Is it as simple as you say!
But let's not talk about Brian's arrogance, because Miquair turns on the computer and transmits the information in the USB flash drive to the computer, and everyone starts to look up the new energy plan that Norman Osborne has come up with.
Everyone became more and more excited, and it seemed that Norman Osborne's Osborne Group had really achieved extraordinary results, and only Li Jie alone became more and more puzzled the more he watched.
Because it seems to, probably, maybe in the words of these materials, Li Jie thinks, why are many of the details described in this information so like Infinity Stones?
Is this the Infinity Stone, or the brother of the Dancing Stone? Li Jie felt that he might have an important clue.
Well, if it's true, then take this gem yourself and save the world by the way. Li Jie thought so easily. He'd forgotten about the roll of Brian's eyes.
