Chapter 30 Post-War Problems
Although the battle in Washington lasted for a short time and did not cause any serious casualties, in fact, only the army and S.H.I.E.L.D. really suffered casualties, but the impact was not small at all.
After all, in such a short period of time, first smashed down a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, fought among the top mutants, and finally appeared a red giant up to 80 meters high and a huge space-based kinetic armor-piercing projectile, it can only be said that in the past so many years, Washington has never been so lively.
If it weren't for the fact that there were no casualties at the top this time, then this incident would have been enough to cause a huge upheaval, but fortunately, this kind of thing did not happen, the matter was resolved, there was no problem with the government, and the American people with big hearts would have taken this matter as a talking point.
But is this really that easy to solve?
How can it be!
Although the mutant attack did not really cause any serious damage, at most the US government lost face once, but in fact, the entire American upper class has become an undercurrent now.
The strength of the top mutants is beyond everyone's imagination, no one thought that Magneto would be able to directly control such a large aircraft carrier, and even sent dozens of warships to the earth's orbit and directly produced a space-based kinetic weapon strike.
Magneto's power is so terrifying, not to mention the strength of the Phoenix Woman, although the Phoenix Girl did not show terrifying destructive power like Magneto on the surface, but S.H.I.E.L.D. came up with a 30,000-word analysis afterwards.
One day, if the Phoenix Girl is not blocked, then it will only take one day for her to destroy the entire American continent, and after one day, the entire American continent will disappear directly from the earth, without even a single stone.
This is much more terrifying than Magneto, and such a terrifying power makes everyone who hears this report involuntarily stunned, and they are not very willing to believe this report.
Some of them were actually at the scene of that battle before. However, they were well protected by Kerry, so they didn't really feel the horror of the Phoenix Girl, so they didn't believe it when they saw this report, but after seeing the specific data and scientific speculation, they were silent.
The strength of the top mutants is beyond the imagination of all the top government leaders, and now they have discovered that the mutant discrimination and suppression policies of the US government for so long in the past are simply dancing on the tip of a knife, and if they don't do it well, they will have no place to die!
Now that we know how terrifying mutants are, the U.S. government naturally knows that it can't continue to stimulate the mutant community now, otherwise it doesn't know what to do.
This time, for various reasons, it didn't cause any major problems, but next time, no one can be sure if they will be so lucky next time, maybe there are idiots among politicians, but the top figures of a country will definitely not relax when it comes to their own lives.
They can't put their lives on the word "maybe"!
But then another question arises, that is, how can they ensure the safety of their lives?
They don't want to die, but the fact that they can't guarantee that they can live in the face of those truly powerful beings deeply hurts the hearts of these people.
So naturally, they set their sights on Kerry, in the previous battle, Kerry showed the combat power to scare everyone's eyes off, no one thought that as the largest shareholder of the Ambrera Group, Kerry actually had the power to control no less than the top mutants.
The Accent family definitely does not have such a terrifying power, everyone is a family that has been passed down for a long time, and they know each other well, although the former Ascend family has shown extraordinary intelligence, but it has never shown terrible strength, and even in addition to IQ, the entire Accent family is scum in other aspects!
Since Kerry's power must not come from his family, everyone is curious about how Kerry's power was obtained, and it would be better if he could obtain this power.
But how to find out Kerry's power has become everyone's problem.
The above questions are at least what the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., the black bald Nick Fury thinks here.
After the First World War in Washington, although Carey was not ranked first in the danger ranking of S.H.I.E.L.D., it was not as low as that, and the reason why Carey was not ranked first was not because he was not strong enough, but because Carey had no tendency to retaliate against society in terms of mentality or status.
"Coulson, what the hell do you think we should do with this person?"
Now Nick Fury is a little unsure of how to deal with the problems caused by Kerry, although I don't know why the upper echelons of the US government did not put too much pressure on him this time, but Nick Fury felt a huge uneasiness.
As an agent who has survived for so long, Nick Fury trusts his instincts, as they have saved him many times.
"I don't know, Director, we don't have a good relationship with Carey right now, and I think it will be a little difficult for me to even meet him if I go directly to him."
Coulson first rejected the possibility of letting him contact Kerry, since the last time he met Kerry, he could probably guess what kind of person Kerry was, and if he did come to the door again this time, it would be the best outcome to be kicked out.
Coulson's level is not too high, but he is one of Nick Fury's most powerful subordinates, especially good at communicating with those guys with superhuman abilities, and Coulson also contributed a lot to the reason why Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver joined S.H.I.E.L.D.
But now Coulson actually refused his request directly, which made Nick Fury frown his brow, Coulson couldn't lie in front of him, which means that Carrey is definitely an extremely difficult guy.
"Carey Escent, this guy is hard to deal with?"
Although he had probably guessed the answer, Nick Fury still asked such a sentence, and after hearing Nick Fury's words, Coulson smiled bitterly.
"It's not just that it's so easy to deal with, to be honest, he doesn't feel like a young man in his twenties at all, but a well-informed old man, he doesn't have the blood of other young people, but he has the wisdom of an old man, and more importantly, he can use this wisdom."
While recalling this last contact with Kerry, Coulson talked about his perception of Kerry, in fact, Coulson admired Kerry very much, because compared to Tony Stark Stark, another world-renowned genius Stark Industries, Kerry is a real genius.
It was no easy task for Carey to grow the Ambrera Group into what it is today.
