Chapter 130: I Have a Word, Please Listen

"Every time I see Major General Cavill, I have a different feeling, and he always creates something unexpected for everyone from time to time...... Surprise. ”

Admiralty Nimitz shook his head and said with a smile that if he had been a religious believer and had seen this scene with his own eyes, he might have begun to recite the Bible and make a cross on his chest.

It is believed that the miracle of Moses' division of the sea will be published in the newspapers in the near future, and it will cause a huge response when the time comes.

It is foreseeable that in Luke's long list of dazzling titles, there will probably be more legendary stories similar to "God of the World" and "The Son of God".

"Superman - this title lives up to its name. The Super Soldier is far from enough to describe the strength of Major General Cavell. ”

The general next to him sighed.

"I heard that another super soldier, Colonel Steve Rogers, also had a wonderful performance on the battlefield of Boston? Ladies and gentlemen, I think it's time to put a research project on human enhancement on the agenda. ”

"Where is our turn to worry about, this is the responsibility of S.H.I.E.L.D."

The slightly older general said sourly.

Regarding the independence of S.H.I.E.L.D. from the Pentagon, the military actually has quite a few complaints.

Ungoverned power can easily lead to the birth of a dictator.

"Regardless, we're witnessing a rising young star shine, and no one knows where Major General Cavill can go in the future."

In the staff group, someone said with admiration and envy.

"How can you continue to call the major general, I think I will change my words soon. Admiral Cavill, the fastest promotion in the United States. ”

Navy Minister Nimitz laughed.

The White House must be preparing for the ceremony.

It's a good opportunity to build relationships.

I remember that at the end of the war, most of the military believed that Luke, who was still a brigadier general at that time, should be excluded from the center of power.

At least sit quietly on the cold bench, lest you be promoted too quickly, and the faction is deeply powerful, threatening the original interest group.

But no one expected that this young major general did not take refuge in any mountain.

There was no indication of attitude to the Admiralty, nor was there any courtesy towards the War Office.

He offered to take the helm of S.H.I.E.L.D., which was unfavorable, and made the powerful Edgar Hoover unable to step down.

Then, it broke away from the constraints of the Pentagon and became a mountain of its own!

"It's amazing speed."

Nimitz sighed, turned around and invited his colleagues, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go over and greet Major General Cavill." ”

Although the relationship between the Admiralty and the War Department is not good, there are many suspicions.

But the people on Liberty Island had to admit that they did have a sense of security when they saw Luke appear.

Especially when he found that the Atlanteans who were still aggressive just now and maintained the posture of a victor, now they had a depressed and resentful expression.

The high-ranking officials of the Admiralty were suddenly in a good mood, and they all had smiles on their faces.

On the other hand, Atlantis' side has been parting the Hudson River with the golden trident in his hand.

The high-spirited momentum was suffocated, and it no longer maintained its original arrogant appearance.

"Damn! That's my golden trident! ”

Namor's chest heaved and he was angry, as if he had been robbed of his wife.

Neptune's trident, which was supposed to be his exclusive weapon!

Now, it is held by a landholder!

"I shouldn't have come to the negotiations if I had known!"

Namor gritted his teeth, feeling regret.

He clutched his chest, his injuries that had long healed, and there was a faint pain.

"Your Majesty, this is a great humiliation to us by the landers! For tens of thousands of years, there has never been an instance of a trident held by a non-royal bloodline! ”

The Hammerhead Shark Clan's Legion Leader's eyes widened, and his forehead was bruised.

The mighty army of Atlantis looked at the tall figures that were stepping on the waves, like gods descending from the heavens.

They had not heard of the book of Exodus, nor did they know that in 1250 B.C.E., a prophet named Moses parted from the Red Sea and was seen as a miracle.

The reason why they all looked at each other was because Luke held the golden Neptune Trident in his right hand.

It was a symbol of the kingship of Atlantis!

Namor glanced at the Hammerhead Clan's Legionnaire, perhaps out of anger in his heart

But it sounded like he was accusing himself of losing the inheritance artifact of the King of Atlantis.

He suppressed his irritable mood and said without emotion: "Then brave Legion Commander, do you want to launch a duel against Superman and use the traditional way of fairness and justice to get the Trident back for me?" ”

The leader of the hammerhead shark clan was silent, and the superman's strength was obvious to all.

Even Namor is no opponent, and rashly challenging will only bring humiliation on himself.

Although the Atlanteans still looked down on the terrestrial world, they identified with the strong.

"Your Majesty, this is what a king should do."

The Legion Commander said in a gruff voice.

"Humph! I will. ”

The young king began to consider Sebastian Shaw's suggestion and was ready to use the continental shelf oscillator as a bargaining chip to negotiate more favorable terms.

……

……

Twenty minutes later, the conference room on Liberty Island.

Negotiations on an armistice are in full swing.

The representatives of the Atlanteans were Namor and his scribes, as well as the legion leader of the Hammerhead Shark clan.

The team sent by the United States is a team of generals and staff members of the Admiralty.

As for Luke, he didn't speak the whole time.

It was only before the negotiation meeting began that he communicated with Nimitz in private.

It probably means that the requirements are casually mentioned, and the conditions are boldly said.

Don't care about Atlantis's bottom line and endurance, take it recklessly, and it is best to squeeze the other party dry to no drop.

Luke himself doesn't care how much benefit he can get, because no matter how much he gets, it doesn't belong to S.H.I.E.L.D.

He prefers to prolong the negotiation time until S.H.I.E.L.D. has enough confidence to take over all this.

"I remember Atlantis still has a lot of good stuff."

Luke's fingers tapped on the tabletop, his thoughts ebbing and falling.

Although he didn't say a word, he was always the focus of attention in the conference room.

Every time Atlantis argued and vetoed a request from the Admiralty, their representatives would subconsciously glance at where he was sitting.

It seems that he is worried that Superman in the land world will be dissatisfied, and he overturns the negotiation table, rolls up his sleeves and shows his fists.

Of the people present, except for Namor, probably no one could withstand the other party's serious punch.

"Guys, don't worry what I think."

Luke shrugged his shoulders and said with a kind smile, "Friends who know me well know that I am actually a pacifist, and I have always liked to convince people with reason. ”

"The resumption of the war between Atlantis and the United States is an outcome that no one wants to see. I sincerely hope that all issues will be resolved at the negotiating table, instead of brutal fighting. ”

Mr. Major General said beautiful words, waved his hands sincerely, and motioned for you to continue talking, and leave me alone.

The representative of Atlantis nodded in a friendly manner, and also spoke in a mouthful of words about peace and the future.

In fact, deep down, I didn't believe a single punctuation mark in Luke's speech.

Reasoning?

If Superman puts down his clenched fists, he does look like a reasonable and benevolent person.

After the parties said some useless nonsense, the negotiations continued.

Atlantis said nothing about reparations, but discussed the future and peaceful coexistence.

It is a reproduction of the lighthouse country, full of freedom and democracy, but in essence what it does is forcible seizure.

Luke must admit that seeing the US imperialists being disgusted like this, he was actually a little dark in his heart.

The bottom line of the military deputies is to work hard to gather wool and strive for some benefits.

In the face of the powerful Atlantis, even if Luke said that he asked for it casually, the Admiralty did not dare to open his mouth.

Otherwise, when the time comes, the black cauldron that will set off the war will have to be deducted from his own head.

The two teams of people pulled back and forth, like pecking at each other under the defense tower, which was unornamental and made people drowsy.

"I have a word, please listen to it."

In the midst of the stalemate, Namor, one of the brainless and unhappy combinations, stepped forward.

A confident look on his face swept over everyone in the roomβ€”except for Luke, who closed his eyes and recuperated.
