Chapter Eighty-Eight: Nick's Determination
"It's really bad right now!"
"Stark is stressing me?" Director Nick pushed open the door to his office and turned back to the visitor, "Now that the world is increasingly divided into five camps, the rift between them is deepening, and each polity is closing itself off in order to protect itself, and the human world has never been so divided. ”
Nick looked at the map hanging on the wall directly opposite the doorway, on which the crimson of the Soviet Union looked down on the world from the westernmost Eastern Europe to the easternmost Bering Strait, like a giant bear lying in the north.
With that rooster at the center, China's positive red swept across East and Southeast Asia, and even occupied Australia and New Zealand.
The light red of Europe encompasses the best of Europe from Norway to the Mediterranean region.
The Red Alliance of the People's Revolutionary Federation firmly controls the entire Eurasian continent in this way, and its tentacles reach out to the five continents and seven oceans, and just looking at the map makes people breathless. Only some parts of the subcontinent and the Middle East are still struggling in this sea of red.
"God forbid, the internal of the People's Revolutionary Union is not one, they are developing on different paths with each other, so the military alliance between them is not strong, the European Union has no idea of conflict with us, and China has no interest in us at all, only the Soviet Union has been putting pressure on us, but fortunately, the focus of their expansion is on the other end of the door opened by the Rubik's Cube in the universe. \'
The guest didn't seem to be happy, he just said calmly: "This has seriously affected our relations with our allies the Asgardians, who say that the madness and warlike tendencies of humanity in the universe, the desire for self-destruction, terrified the world. A lot of races have a negative view of us. ”
"But the Soviets did it, and we are their natural allies in our position!" Nick retorted.
"Positions are changing all the time, and race is the only ...... Nick, you can never change the fact that we are all human, then in their eyes, we are the same! ”
"Although it is the evil forces under the leadership of Thanos who are unlucky, the ruthlessness, cruelty and ruthlessness shown by human beings have already disturbed the righteous forces in the universe!" The guest sighed: "The Soviets are too capable!" They've bloodied the entire starfield, and they're getting more and more terrifying...... The Asgardians warned us, the Soviets...... Every Soviet man began to manifest the temperament of those deep, ancient evils of the universe. ”
"They're throwing everything away for survival!"
Beyond that vast red zone, the blue of North America and the island of England, the symbol of freedom, is squeezed into this small part of the map, with occasional small areas in Africa, and the wider region of South America and Africa occupied by a blue-black of steel, like the color of the Iron Cross, which approached Mexico, Egypt, and South Africa......
"The resurgence of the Nazis is a madness that has never been seen in human history, they have reached out to the most taboo areas in the field of science, race, genes, anti-ethics and resurrection, mutations, viruses, mutations, radiation, and the evils that human beings can imagine in the field of biochemistry have all been played vividly and exquisitely by this government, and they have truly achieved the ...... of scientific governance."
"Trample human dignity to the soles of your feet...... to study how to enslave human ......"
The two people in the room suddenly fell silent, and the uneasy air spread in the place where the eye could not see: "The government without a bottom line is terrible, and there is nothing we can do about it...... In addition to the war...... But the least likely thing is war, because we can't afford ......."
Nick recalled the quarrels in the meeting again and again, in today's international trade and globalization are completely bankrupt, all the principles and political systems that the United States adheres to have lost their economic significance, if you don't want to be completely dragged into the abyss, you must come up with a new set of methods - the methods that everyone knows!
Totalitarianism - Authoritarianism - Dictatorship - Big Government - Imperialism - There are many words to describe it, but the core never changes - control.
"Stark and the Department of Defense almost tore their faces!" Nick sighed suddenly.
"Expected!" The guest coldly popped out these words.
Nick lay down in his chair, looked up at the pattern on the ceiling, and said to himself with unfocused eyes: "The Ministry of Defense wants to merge Stark Industries, and they ordered Tony to hand over the core technology of the Steel Warframe...... It was like throwing his family's ancestral grave. The country took away Stark Industries, and of all the things that could anger him, I am afraid it was also in the top three......"
"And among the people who can blow up those GIs, Stark can definitely be in the top three...... And this time he is not alone, he has the support of almost all the large enterprises. ”
"There can be many cores of democracy, but the power of the empire is in one place, and if the Ministry of Defense gets control of Stark and other large arms companies, then the bureaucracy and the system they represent will expand indefinitely, and eventually encompass everything. And if Stark wins, then the state becomes a huge trust enterprise, and all small businesses have no need to exist, because the state is one, or a combination of several enterprises, ......"
The guest's tone was cold and even cruel to reply: "This is a war between the consortium and the bureaucracy, and the middle class will be doomed to become cannon fodder." ”
Then he asked rhetorically with a hint of banter and a sense of good play: "What about Captain America's attitude?" Now he represents the people! ”
"He doesn't like any of them...... But he had no choice, and it was the most painful struggle I've ever seen him, with both sides fighting and tearing apart the right to freedom that he cherished...... But I already feel his choice! ”
The guest didn't ask the answer that Nick didn't say, because it didn't need to be considered: "Then in this case, the civil war is imminent!" ”
"And it will be the most brutal war!"
"War will be limited to the smallest ......," Nick replied, "because we don't dare to start a war at all, whether the parliament ousts the president from power, or the president dissolves the parliament, will determine the future direction of the country......"
"I will do my best to eliminate other interference, and the outcome of everything will be decided by the Avengers!"
"I've enlisted the Professor's support to make sure that this civil war doesn't expand, and the Asgardians have taken a neutral stance - Thor and the Hulk won't be involved in this war, and I need your support now!" Nick stood up and looked the guest in the eye: "Now, support?" Or against? ”
"Control the scope of the civil war?" The guest asked, "Why do you have such crazy ideas?" ”
Nick replied firmly: "Because the Avengers have two of the best leaders, and no matter what their position is, they will not destroy the entire country!" ”
"This is bound to provoke a full-scale reaction from the Nazis, the Soviet Union, Asgard, Thanos, and even China...... "The guest is still reminding Nick of the absurdity of his ideas.
"That's exactly what we do! I will open up the fairest battlefield for them and will keep all distractions out of the battlefield...... Now that the X-Men have my back, and S.H.I.E.L.D. has my back, I need more power to shield them from the elements. Nick replied aloud.
"What if it's the apocalypse?" Unimpressed by his generosity, the guests asked the most fatal question: "How do you rule out the influence of the apocalypse?" ”
Nick was silent for a long time before he raised his head: "I need your attitude to prove it to you!" ”
"If you can fight the apocalypse...... The Guardians of the Galaxy will support you on behalf of one-third of the civilizations in the galaxy! The guest pulled down his hat, revealing the face of an ordinary American, who was none other than Star-Lord, a hybrid of Spartoi and human. (To be continued.) )
