Chapter 577: Why don't you cooperate
In the end, the President of the United States agreed to Ereda Twins' request to form a department dedicated to dealing with humans with special abilities, affiliated with the military, which is the so-called Black Seal Department.
Because, after the extremely horrific incident created by Killian, including the attempted assassination of the president of the United States, if they are no longer aware of the threat of special abilities of humans, then they should really change their positions, so it is very practical to set up a special response department.
What's more, after seeing Killian's ultimate creatures and the stronger augmenters created by the Twins, they are also very enthusiastic about these technocrats.
But they can't figure it out, and it stands to reason that the people who study these cutting-edge technologies and can produce results are all talents! But why can't they be as reasonable as the twins? Can't we cooperate well? You do research honestly, I will give you money with peace of mind, and finally I will get a new weapon and you will be on Forbes, what an ideal situation this is!
But you are all dozens of years old, but you are not mature at all, all of you are like the second middle school disease exploded, thinking about making some big news all day long!
But that's fine, since you want to do something, then I'll kill you first, and I'll let all the people who are willing to cooperate with us take over the technology in your hands.
Ideally, however, the government itself would form such a group, and the confiscated technology should also be studied by the government itself.
However, because of previous events, the U.S. government really has little confidence in its own research on this technology, and someone who has been called the black history of the military will have the most say in it. And considering the huge research budget and the time spent, it is more cost-effective to buy the finished product directly from the twins.
Besides, they promised from the beginning that the technology they snatched back would be shared with the U.S. government, so if you are really idle and want to study it, then study it.
Moreover, this kind of thing such as private companies mastering core technology and the government spending money to buy advanced weapons from private companies is really rare and common in the United States.
Do you see which kind of weapons are made by the United States themselves? From guns and ammunition to aircraft missiles, aren't they all bought from arms companies? Oh, except for nuclear weapons, which are really made by themselves, but the embarrassing thing is that the carrier missiles that launch nuclear weapons are made by private enterprises. Therefore, if the U.S. government now says that it wants to abandon all private enterprises and rely on itself, and wants to launch nuclear weapons abroad, it can really only rely on American GIs to pull a donkey cart, and the donkey that pulls the cart may have been bought from a certain farmer.
"It's a blessing. Melinda thought about the situation of this special unit that was established two months ago, and went over to negotiate with Luther, "But this case is a S.H.I.E.L.D. case, and this scene is also a S.H.I.E.L.D. scene. "The implication is that we, S.H.I.E.L.D., have taken over everything here, and you can leave.
Under normal circumstances, if you show this golden sign of S.H.I.E.L.D., no matter what government department will make a slight concession, but this time Luthor did not do this, not only that, but his attitude is also very tough, "Maybe S.H.I.E.L.D. is also investigating this matter, but you have to understand that agents, this is the United States, and you have no right to ask the US government departments to recuse themselves." ”
was rejected by the other party, but Melinda was not annoyed by this, but said lightly, "S.H.I.E.L.D. has priority enforcement, so you have to investigate, that's okay, but wait until we're done." ”
"Hmph...," Luthor sneered, as if he had no fear, "No matter how much power S.H.I.E.L.D. theoretically has in the United States, it is entrusted to you by the U.S. government, and if the government doesn't agree, then there are no rights." ”
In the face of these tough words, Melinda did not care, but asked rhetorically, "Do you want to tell me that the United States intends to withdraw the treaty?"
S.H.I.E.L.D. is now an international organization, and any rights it enjoys in various countries are entrusted to them by virtue of their accession to the Convention. And if this country withdraws from the Convention, S.H.I.E.L.D. will have no power in this country. Just like Malta, he didn't join the convention in the first place, so legally speaking, the Aegis class can't carry out any actions on this beautiful island country in the Mediterranean, of course, only legally.
"I didn't say that. Luthor shook his head exaggeratedly, "I just wanted to tell you that the rights given to us by the U.S. government, while S.H.I.E.L.D. are the same, they are all priority enforcement rights. ”
"It's just ridiculous. Melinda thought it was a little incredible, because this kind of behavior was like stacking the roof and the bed, like now that two departments with equal rights have collided, who will do it first? Who listens to whom? How to decide? Do you go out and set up a ring and fight bare-chested? Who stands and who speaks in the end?
"I'm just a little man, and you—" said Luthor with great sincerity, "a little man. Melinda was stunned at the time, is it okay for the old lady to be promoted to a ninth-level agent? Do you know how many ninth-level agents there are in S.H.I.E.L.D.? Seeing Melinda's appearance, Luthor added, "At least none of us have the right to make this kind of decision." ”
"So if you have any objections, it's just going to have us go and get the big bosses above each other," he said, and Luthor pointed upwards, "Let them negotiate with each other." ”
Since Luthor dared to say these words, he naturally had confidence. Because since the U.S. government has given the Black Seal Department the same priority enforcement rights as S.H.I.E.L.D., it is naturally clear that it wants them to be right with S.H.I.E.L.D.
In fact, this is also an important reason why the US government will agree to the Gemini request so quickly. Because about strengthening people, if the U.S. government doesn't care about it, S.H.I.E.L.D. will also take care of it. But if these things are handled by the twins, then in the end, more or less the US government can get a piece of the pie, although it has to pay for it, but if S.H.I.E.L.D. is all round, it really won't even be able to get a hair.
And the U.S. government has long been prepared. S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to negotiate? Then let's go to the World Security Committee and have a good talk.
Let's just say that our country has spent a lot of money to build a large underground atomic collider experimental base, which has never been used for brand new, and we kindly lent you S.H.I.E.L.D. to do the second phase of the experiment, but who can tell us why you collapsed it in less than three months? And you haven't talked to us about losing money until now.
Also, our country trusts S.H.I.E.L.D. so much that he handed over the Cosmic Cube to S.H.I.E.L.D. for safekeeping, but why did he appear in New York and invite an alien invasion?
And the most excessive thing is that after the alien invasion, your S.H.I.E.L.D. told me that everything is under control and let us stay still, but why did a plane that took off from your S.H.I.E.L.D. aircraft carrier drop a tactical nuclear bomb on Manhattan in the end?!
Come on, negotiate! If you don't explain these problems to me clearly, I'm not done with you!
"I'm a pragmatic person. After a stalemate for a while, Luthor spoke first, "And the purpose of the establishment of the Black Chapter Department is also to protect national security, and if we continue like this, it will only reduce our efficiency." ”
"So?" Melinda asked, glancing at the big black man.
"So why don't we cooperate?" said Luther, with a smile on his big face, "Since we are all priority enforcement, then in no particular order, we will investigate and collect evidence at the same time, what do you think?"
After a moment's thought, Melinda nodded, "I agree." "This is indeed the best solution at the moment, and it is better than doing nothing here. As for the future... That's really the same as he said, how did the big boss come to negotiate.
"S.H.I.E.L.D... There's always no shortage of these strange things. As soon as the investigation began, Fitz released a large number of micro-drones to scan the scene without blind spots, and then a large amount of data was collected on his tablet. This made Luthor look at his team members who were searching with his bare hands, and he was really envious.
"The preliminary investigation came out. At this time, one of the team members reported to Luther, "The temperature of the explosion was extremely high, but we couldn't figure out what the explosion was, and we didn't find any shrapnel at the scene." ”
"Wait," Luthor called out abruptly, "can you calculate the exact temperature at the time of the explosion?
"No sir, look at that poor fellow. The team snorted over there, it should have been a charred corpse, "If the explosion is... That type, he should be vaporized instantly, and he can only be left with a shadow on the wall. ”
"That's true, let's keep investigating. Luthor waved the team back and pressed his headset "You can hear me, it's not that type of explosion." ”
"Not necessarily. A crisp female voice came from the headset, apparently thinking that Luthor had made some hasty conclusions now.
"But the temperature wasn't up to par. Luthor took the corner of the room, away from the S.H.I.E.L.D. people.
"I've been studying that type for 10 years, and I know that there are many possibilities that can reduce the explosion temperature, individual variability, incomplete modification, or even too small a dose. Of course, it is also possible that this organization is trying to reduce overheating, but it has not succeeded. ”
"What is this?" At this moment, Simmons, a scientist from S.H.I.E.L.D., suddenly let out an exclamation, jumped in front of a pile of rags with small steps, and took out a strange thing from it.
Melinda asked, "Is it explosive?"
"It's not. The thing Simmons picked up was a bit like the one on the body of an arthropod, and through the transparent shell, you could see that there was some orange liquid in the bucket, but it didn't look like the earth. ”
"Can you tell what it is?" Luthor turned his head to focus on the object in Simmons' hand, his sunglasses equipped with a camera function that allowed him to broadcast what he saw remotely.
"Look, come on, science needs experimentation. The voice in the headset grumbled, "But... It could be a filter, and it was probably their medication. ”
"But now it's in S.H.I.E.L.D. hands. Luthor watched as Simmons carefully packed the item into the box, ready to take it back to study in detail.
"It doesn't matter. The voice in the headset was unimpressed, "We just got the information, we seem to have a test subject wandering outside, Michael Peterson, we should be able to get an answer from him, a complete answer." ”
"Do you need me to find him?" asked Luther.
"No need, the hostess has already let the cowboy go. ”
