Chapter 402: The Beginning of Cosmic Immigration (5800 Words)
"Form a Hero Society? Director, you're not kidding, are you? When Coulson heard Nick Fury talk to himself about it, he always felt that his old leader had been ghosted or hypnotized.
S.H.I.E.L.D., as the world's leading organization for "maintaining stability", is now taking the lead in this so-called Hero Association? Isn't that just a legitimate excuse for those transcendents to do things? A group of so-called heroes who sometimes make cameos as thugs want to come to the stage in a grand manner, without even wearing a mask?
"Coulson, although I also think that this matter is not too reliable, but this is not a consultation, but an order, an order from the World Security Council." Nick Fury sighed.
They seem to care more about the distribution of the spoils of Jotunheim than the trouble caused by this Hero Society. Especially after Tindersource discovered horrific oil and gold deposits in Jotunheim, the politicians were like hungry wolves.
The benefits of any business are no match for war and plunder, and now is the critical period for reaping profits. The whole world has been blinded by the bright prospect of colonizing aliens, and it is eager to become a cosmic empire of the sun that never sets, just like the empire on which the sun never sets.
However, in terms of space teleportation technology, only Tinder Source has mastered the complete technology, which can achieve large-scale interstellar travel. At the same time, only Tinder's intelligent robots can be developed in the extremely harsh environment of Jotunheim.
No one can bypass the Tinder Source Company for interstellar colonization, otherwise even if others have mastered the relevant technology and do not get the friendship of Asgard, the earthlings going to Jotunheim will be tantamount to declaring war on these muscular barbarians.
This is the only option that no one can shake, from technology to political status. Even if someone were to kill Rorschach, it would only lead to an early revenge war for the Asgardians.
Thor, the god of thunder, as the next successor of Asgard, will not allow anyone to kill his comrade-in-arms, the benefactor of Asgard. When the time comes, as long as a thousand Asgardian soldiers are dispatched, combined with the ability of the Rainbow Bridge to come and go freely, almost any regime in the world can be destroyed.
More importantly, Rorschach was never a man of arrogance and blindness, and he did not hesitate to transfer this advantage to his compatriots in his homeland. This monopoly of individual nature has become a monopoly of the nature of the state.
In this way, all the distribution of benefits is the responsibility of professionals, and there is no need for Rorschach to worry at all, and the once great country has never been stingy with rewards for meritorious people.
Other capitalist countries, led by the United States, hated it so much that they wanted to engage in small moves such as a trade war. However, the Emperor, who had been hiding on that small island in the Pacific Ocean, also spoke out to support Rorschach, so that the entire European Union instantly defected and became a loyal ally of China.
The United States still does not understand why a naïve and crazy mutant would make the EU do what it says. Although many inquiries have been made, it seems that this is related to some activities of the mages of Kama Taj, but they can't figure out the key.
China has always been an enemy of the world, and no one in any country is willing to let this former world hegemon grow again. The United States has also maintained this situation, using the power of the whole world to suppress this eastern dragon that is about to take off.
But now, because of Rorschach's existence, the situation has been reversed. The United States has become an island in the world, and it can only fight alone.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the United States still has the power to single-handedly challenge the whole world for the time being, but if it continues, I am afraid it will be difficult to say. And Huaxia is not ready to unify the earth now, and just uses the international organization of S.H.I.E.L.D. as a buffer to carry out cooperation in alien colonization.
However, in this cooperation, it is obvious that China has the advantage of the vast majority, and the United States knows that this is a cup of poisonous wine, so it has to drink it first. Otherwise, let Huaxia get the resources of an entire planet and develop for a period of time with the farming methods that this race is best at, and then the United States may not even have the strength to fight back.
In the face of this general trend, the so-called Hero Association, in front of those flesh-eaters, is probably like a steel hammer next to a ton of gold, and they don't even bother to look at it.
"What exactly does Rorschach want to do?" Coulson asked in a heavy tone.
"Seriously optimistic about this report, from today onwards, I'm afraid that Tindersource will become the biggest opponent of S.H.I.E.L.D." Nick Fury sighed.
This weird guy should have been put under house arrest when he appeared, and the world wouldn't be what it is now, far beyond the control of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Compared to the gloom and fog of S.H.I.E.L.D., the newly built skyscraper was bustling.
"The first S-class hero, Iron Man Tony Stark. Born into the genius Stark family, his father was the famous ......"
A series of biographies, as well as Tony's achievements for his contributions to humanity, and a lot of praise sprinkled with praise. However, there is one more crucial thing in the end: "Hero specialty: rich!" ”
The above large biographical explanations have been overshadowed here.
Such a profile appeared like an advertisement on the façade of the new office building of the Hero Society. Tony Stark's bombed selfie video has become the most conspicuous image in a radius of several kilometers through the oversized monitor that covers most of the walls.
Today is the day when the Hero Association was founded.
Long before the inauguration ceremony began, countless reporters had already flocked to the press conference in front of the office building.
"Seriously, I think we should add the two perks of handsomeness and super genius, but my friends don't think these two traits are as impactful as the current one." Tony Stark said proudly in an interview with the media.
Tony was clearly at ease in front of reporters and was in complete control of the scene. After forming the Forgiveness Alliance, Tony never gave up any opportunity to be in the limelight. This time, Rorschach plans to form an official Hero Association, and Tony joins without even thinking about it.
Isn't it just a matter of revealing your identity? I've already made it public.
As for the other requirements, for him, a designated S-class hero, there is actually no requirement, at most he will ask for his help when there is a major crisis, which is what Tony has been doing in the first place.
And Nick Fury would also like to see Tony become the spokesperson of the Hero Society, at least he has an inextricable relationship with S.H.I.E.L.D., and can be a target if necessary.
"Mr. Stark, what kind of organization is this Hero Society, is it so that those with extraordinary abilities can legally fight in the city?" A sharp-tongued reporter asked.
"Congratulations, you asked a question that was enough to win the Nobel Prize for the mentally handicapped. Do you think I, Tony Stark, would speak for a so-called legal brawl organization? Or do you think I'm going to be like those street thugs and put on my steel armor worth hundreds of millions for the size of a garbage can? Tony didn't hesitate to spark his poisonous tongue talent.
"Mr. Stark, you haven't answered my question, what exactly is this Hero Organization?" The reporter also seems to be accustomed to all kinds of bad attitudes, and does not care about Tony's sarcasm at all, but only focuses on finding answers.
"Quite simply, it's a very efficient relief organization. As I'm sure all of you know, tens of thousands of people die every year from shooting. And in the face of this huge number, our police department has not only failed to protect the people, but even contributed a lot of deaths themselves.
"It is true that it is impossible to get a free America to ban guns, but the right to life of those who do not own guns should be equally protected. So I can tell you that the first mission of the Hero Association is to prevent school shootings.
"In the first month, the Association of Heroes will install gun detection and space teleportation devices in more than 300 schools. In the event of an accident, our C-level or higher heroes will arrive as soon as possible to subdue the gangsters for the children.
"This is only the first step, and the Hero Association will gradually integrate with all sectors of society, mainly carrying out rescue operations in various critical situations. So I can tell you that the so-called street brawls are simply a kind of slander against the heroes.
"At the same time, I appeal to the vigilantes who hide their heads and tails. You can continue to hide in the shadows and break the law, and then fantasize about being a hero. Or you can also choose to stand up and become a real hero under the sun, just like me. ”
Tony's words made the reporter shut his mouth in satisfaction. The Heroes Association's goal to stop the school shooting, although it may not sound like an atmospheric goal, is a visible goal that is closely related to ordinary people.
If Tony says that the Heroes Association intends to fight terrorists like the US military, or rather, fight the worldwide drug lord organization. Those things are so far away that most people can only see numbers on the news.
But installing gun detection devices and space teleportation devices in schools, which sounds sci-fi, can be verified right away.
From this point of view, this Hero Association is not a "charity" organization like the White Helmets that specializes in making fake videos to cheat money, but a special organization that does things in a real way.
The list of the next Hero Association Bulletin proves that Tony's words are not false. This is a list of transcendents who have registered as heroes, and it not only records their identities in detail, but also records all the contributions they have made.
And as a key to the score, it is not how many criminals this hero killed, but how many people they saved. Killing people doesn't give credit for increasing hero points, saving people is. At the same time, if you cause serious damage to the environment, you will also be deducted points.
Tony, who is ranked first in the S-class, tops the list by saving the lives of more than 3,000 civilians at the hands of terrorists. Although he demolished almost two cities, it did not detract from his feat of saving people.
The second is the master of the mutant organization, Lorna the North Star. Rorschach gave Lorna the credit for taking out the Russian gangsters and saving a large number of trafficked women. Coupled with the credit of smashing the Hand and the like, it adds up to make her sit in the second place of S-class heroes.
Mutants especially need such a hero to make it easier for the group to integrate into a society where ordinary people are the majority.
There aren't many heroes left, and most of them are S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. In terms of merit, the agents under S.H.I.E.L.D. do have a great advantage. It's just that they didn't want to be famous before, so they weren't known.
Now that the Hero Association has been established inexorably, Nick Fury simply pushed these people out and occupied most of the hero slots first. In this way, even if Rorschach has any ideas, he will not be able to get things done in a short time.
At the end of the day, Nick Fury never really believed in the sudden appearance of Rorschach.
The Hero Association is still lively, and the reporters are quite concerned about many details, such as the operation of the association, the source of funds, and the decision-making level, etc., and they just want to find out the bottom of it.
But dealing with these reporters, Tony is definitely professional, what should be said, what should not be said will not be fruitful.
On the side of Tindersource, Rorschach seemed to have breakfast with his daughter very leisurely.
"Why would S.H.I.E.L.D. say yes so easily? Dad, your politics are ready to run for president. Rhona grabbed a handful of fries and stuffed them all into her mouth, leaving her face greasy.
Rorschach carefully wiped his daughter clean, he was used to this completely inappropriate topic for Rhona to say.
As a result, Rorschach explains, "I don't know anything about politics, and I don't know much about it. It's just that I have bigger cards in my hand than all of them, so they can't accept it unless they plan to flip the table and not play. But if they dare to flip the table, they will find themselves losing even worse. ”
"However, will those S.H.I.E.L.D. people take this opportunity to turn the Hero Guild into their own cards?" Rhona asked.
"They want to, but they don't have the skills. There are rules for the establishment of the Hero Association. The first is that if you want to register as a hero, you must disclose your identity information. In this way, many people are scared away, especially those who are so-called heroes who worship freedom.
"One of the reasons why heroes are masked is that they fear reprisals against their relatives and friends, and the second reason is that they are afraid that their true identities will be seized by the government and persecuted. The Hero Guild can solve the first two problems, but even so, many heroes are still reluctant to reveal their identities because they are afraid of being judged by others. That's why I never intended to be a superhero, and I couldn't even afford a nickname. Rorschach said flatly.
Regarding the superhero civil war that will occur in the future, Rorschach is actually not too clear about the reasons for it. But after this period of time, living in this land of purported freedom, he found that many so-called heroes have a great degree of concern about their identity.
They are going to cover their faces, they are going to hide themselves. It's not just about safety, it's because they're afraid of being talked about.
The world is too big and the population is too large, maybe you can get the praise of thousands of people for doing a good deed, just like a firefighter saving someone's life in a sea of fire. But no matter in any country in the world, there will be some mentally retarded people who smear heroes and disagree with everyone when they sing praises of virtue.
And when these mentally retarded people are attacked, they will take out "freedom of speech" as a shield and continue to show their differences. Fortunately on the Huaxia side, heroes such as firefighters who insult and sacrifice are to be arrested and detained, and there are a hundred ways to leave a deep "memory" in just a few days.
But the United States does not, and the United States makes it almost impossible to punish these people except for the political correctness of racial discrimination.
In addition, these superheroes tend to cause a lot of damage when they carry out righteous strikes. It's like in the movie "Avengers 2", a sad and desperate black mother cries that Iron Man failed to save his son, and even caused her son to die because of negligence.
But the fat lady didn't want to think that if it weren't for the influence of the Avengers, the huge shock hammer made by Ultron would have fallen from the sky, and humanity would have been wiped out long ago.
Instead of being grateful to Iron Man for being alive, the lady blames him for her son's death.
There are not a few people who can be called shameless by such people.
Even if he was as strong-willed as Iron Man, he couldn't withstand this blow, which then led to a split among the superheroes.
Tony Stark was the first superhero to reveal his identity, and even he would doubt himself, let alone others. The identity of superheroes, more like a vest on the Internet, allows them to bear the blame of these people.
Turn off the computer and no one knows who you are.
But if the identity of a superhero is made public and completely connected to the real world, how many people can be as indestructible as Saitama, from heart to body?
"Then Dad, you're still letting them register? Will anyone be willing? Rhona asked.
"There will be, though not much. But as long as they are willing to accept identity registration, it means that they are naturally in an orderly formation, they do not mind being part of the order, and they are braver than those so-called free people who hide in the shadows. And what I want to do is to protect these people and let them gain fame and fortune! Let them become idols for young people all over the world, so that everyone aspires to this glory and wish they could be a part of it.
"When the profession of heroes becomes a kind of idol, every act they do is hypnotizing people all over the world, so that they can't help but feel that the hero's behavior is right and what they support is right.
"These heroes will be divided into various tiers and will receive funding from the Tinder Corporation. Weapons, armor, healing potions, more advanced means of communication and transportation...... Heroes of different levels enjoy different resources, they will desperately climb up, and then desperately speak for everything they enjoy, and defend this interest with their lives.
"When the time comes, S.H.I.E.L.D. can only watch, but it can't do anything. When the time comes, Nick Fury's eyes can probably be a little farther away,"
Rorschach was proudly showing off to his daughter, but when he saw Skye appear with a large stack of documents, he said very unhappily: "Saying this in front of your daughter, you educate your children like this?" ”
Skye was not idle, the establishment of the Hero Association, and the Tinder Source Company also installed its own people in many key departments. The Hero Association does not only rely on those heroes to support the scene, but the operation of an organization also requires many behind-the-scenes staff.
And Skye is almost the administrative director of the Hero Association.
It seemed to be a little too excited, and Rorschach also felt embarrassed. This daughter is not less than a year old, will instilling this idea so quickly make little Lori black?
Thinking of this, Rorschach immediately changed his words and said, "Baby, why don't you accompany Dad to watch two episodes of Peppa Pig?" ”
Rona held her chin in both hands and said, "It's amazing, Dad, you want me to be a social person so soon." ”
After laughing with her daughter, Rorschach went back to her office. In fact, everything I just said had a vague idea before the establishment of the Hero Association, and now it is just being put into practice.
Rorschach established the Heroes Association, naturally not really to fight crime, and there is no weirdo association on this earth that shouts "come and beat me" all day long.
These heroes are actually the elite troops of the Rorschach Universe Project, but this will not come into play until the real cosmic war begins.
And what Rorschach needs to be busy with now is the real space development plan.
Opening the stereoscopic star map, Rorschach looked at Jotunheim, who had begun to slowly establish a colony, but sighed with emotion: "You are still grabbing a little resource with the natives for a frozen planet. And the Tinder Source Company already has an independent resource star suitable for human habitation. ”
The star map is zoomed in, on a dimly lit planet that looks like a desert. One by one, the Tindersource robots crawled out of the thick black slime, carrying all kinds of metal parts, and built huge metal cities on this desolate planet.
