Chapter 66: The Birth of a Hero

After an extremely fierce battle, the python colony that invaded San Francisco finally retreated.

It is not clear whether it was because of the loss of the sense of pearls, or because of the huge casualties of more than seventy percent, in short, those pythons finally returned to the sea at the cost of leaving behind their injured and unable to move companions.

The remaining python swarm entered the deep sea area under the leadership of the only two remaining Super Titan pythons, and finally, completely disappeared from the satellite screen...

"It's finally over"

The members of S.H.I.E.L.D., who had long been consumed to the limit and were completely supported by their will to survive, suddenly collapsed to the ground one after another.

Even the woman whose strength was completely in the first echelon, the woman named Ekasha and the cheating boy were just as tired and lying in the blood.

Even the most hygienic Akasha doesn't care about any image, hygiene and other details at all, she just wants to rest now!

"I feel like I'm almost dying of exhaustion!"

There is no place in the internal organs of the limbs that does not hurt, and the feeling is like running a marathon with extreme muscle soreness, and at the same time, there are countless miniature knives scraping flesh in each muscle!

She's pretty good, this kind of large-scale battle is definitely a huge torture for the arcane humans who are not good at long-lasting battles, the kind of extreme pain caused by the exhaustion of physical strength and the devouring of life force into power, the brief makes those who use too much power want to commit suicide in agony!

And this led to the fact that in the later stages of the previous battle, the battle situation completely became that they became the "meat shield" in front, trying their best to entangle the advance of the giant python while saving physical strength.

The soldiers in the rear, who were safe, did their favorite job of long-range support, frantically pumping bullets and shells at the python swarm.

Of course, this unfair treatment has led to the dissatisfaction of many arcane humans, especially the vast majority of people who are already resentful, so many of them secretly plan to retaliate in the future.

But after successfully resisting the invasion of the giant python, these "supermen" suddenly became heroes, and as the saviors of San Francisco, they were enthusiastically embraced by the influx of people!

The crowd screamed, went crazy, and the cops who thought they could finally make a difference couldn't stop them at all, as if the fans saw those big-name stars!

In a sense, they are indeed stars at this moment, and they are the first batch of real super humans who are really exposed to the eyes of human beings all over the world! It is conceivable that they will become household names with the spread of the media in the future, and eventually become the object of countless people's admiration!

And in this kind of enthusiasm that can seem to melt the iceberg, all kinds of previous dissatisfaction and resentment, like a small bubble, disappeared in an instant, leaving no trace.

"We, now heroes?"

The young man with five or six bright red lip prints on his face wiped his somewhat wet lips in embarrassment, and looked at Ekasha beside him with a confused expression.

"That's right! We are the heroes of America! ”

As an adult, Akasha obviously knows a lot more than a teenager.

"Now America needs heroes to divert the attention of the people, and we must be the ones who are sought after by the whole country! It's a win-win, you know? ”

The boy nodded a little ignorantly.

Although he can't understand these complicated things too much, he at least understands that he has now become a celebrity like his idol Spider-Man!

However, the two of them, who were completely immersed in joy, did not notice that many of their seriously injured companions did not seem to be as excited as they were.

On the contrary, these people without exception are looking for guys who act the same as themselves in the crowd, especially focusing on those who are also seriously injured, these people look at each other, and they all show a kind of sympathetic gaze, as if to say, it turns out that you are the same as me...

In this regard, Dong Xuan, who had just returned from the underground base that was sealed by him, and was hidden in the crowd, smiled and said nothing

No matter what kind of action, thinking, planning, and hustle and bustle are short-lived.

When it was all over, the crowd began to disperse, and the soldiers could finally go back to rest, and these S.H.I.E.L.D. members were about to get what they craved.

These guys who aren't locals can turn around and pat their butts and walk away in an unusually chic way, but what is left for the local residents of San Francisco is still a mess.

It can be said that for this hurtful city, the pain has only just begun...

This day, named San Francisco Day of Sorrow,

According to later statistics, the disaster caused at least nearly 1,000 families to lose their loved ones, hundreds of shops went bankrupt due to the destruction of giant pythons, and at least tens of thousands of people were displaced...

The whole of San Francisco was filled with crying and wailing of sadness and despair

To add insult to injury, there were more than 300 soldiers who died, and many more wounded, and at the same time, the near-devastating destruction of public buildings by the fighting.

This huge amount of funding is undoubtedly a huge financial burden on the entire California government.

According to the Treasury Department's estimates, the state government's fiscal deficit, which has lasted for nearly seven years, has no hope of returning to positive values for at least two decades, and a recession in California is almost inevitable.

Of course, no matter what you say, life still has to go on, just as it is said in the speech that is taking place at this moment.

"I hope that everyone can unite to get through the crisis together, turn grief and anger into motivation to move forward, and start anew, and the California government will be your solid backing..."

In the twilight of the night, Governor Svalambo, with a sad face and a sparkle in the corners of his eyes, stood in front of the crowd that had spontaneously gathered in front of the ruins to pray, and tried to soothe the grief-stricken crowd with his deep and deep voice.

That sad tone accompanied the ruin and desolation around them, and even made many people can't help but sob.

The reason why the governor, who is not known for his eloquence, was able to produce such good results this time was completely inseparable from his real sad state of mind, but not for the sake of those dead guys.

"It's over! My reputation, my approval rating, it's all gone! Gone!! ”

There was such a serious problem, almost shocked the world, as the highest governor of a state, he is almost a natural "backstabber", public opinion in all aspects is completely in the direction of his unfavorable, and the people's trust in him is almost like a crazy decline.

Of course, the same unlucky guy is the mayor of San Francisco, who is standing by and silent

This is an inevitable situation in democracies, and when something goes wrong, people are the first to think -- whose responsibility is it?

Rather than immediately thinking about a solution.

As for the cause and process of everything, they don't care about it, because they only need the effect.

And at this time, there is often another situation that is almost inevitable and extremely rare in China, that is, protest!

"You incompetent, incompetent fellow! It's all your fault, you're the executioner! You murderer! ”

Suddenly, a stone that flew from nowhere hit the governor's head, and if it hit, our governor could think about plastic surgery ...

However, fortunately, the governor was also recognized as a tough guy when he was young, and even if he was older, his combat effectiveness was still explosive.

Sensing something flying over, he almost subconsciously stretched out his hand to make a standard defensive move, and the fist-sized cement stone suddenly snapped into his muscle-covered forearm, except for a few bruises, it didn't cause much damage.

"Damn! Damn it! Damn it! ”

Such an embarrassing scene made the anger in the governor's heart instantly burn almost irrepressibly!

If it weren't for the smoothness honed by years of politics and the more and more peaceful mentality as he grew older, he really wanted to break the neck of the guy who dared to throw a stone at himself!

Although there were only a few protesters who kept throwing things, when this happened, the speech could not continue, and under the protection of the bodyguards who rushed up, the governor had to brave the attack of stones and tiles, and left in a very embarrassed way.

Of course, the anger in the governor's heart became even more violent with this encounter.

"Gotta find out the bastard who lured these damn worms here, I'm going to tear him alive!"

With tremendous pressure from all walks of life, the entire US intelligence system has entered a kind of madness

They look for all suspicious call logs, analyze every surveillance camera every second, and use backdoors to hack into the network... But, alas, it all worked out in the end.

The governor's treatment is arguably just a microcosm of the phenomenon of demonstrations across the United States.

The public began to distrust the current government's ability to do things, and the poll support rate was even about to be overtaken by the second place, and those opposition parties began to exert their efforts to launch a no-confidence proposal in order to bite a big piece of the pie from the hands of the ruling party

In this case, countless people come together, either with real demands, or by being hired by tricks, or simply with ambitions.

They blocked the streets, blocked traffic, burned portraits, and even blocked the normal travel and work of government personnel, turning the whole of America into a pot of porridge.

As a result, the already difficult investigation work has also fallen into an even greater impasse because of the troubles of these guys.

Even if everyone from the president to the mayor sprays these unlucky guys in the face, it's useless

It is estimated that only when the remaining shareholders of Lawson Technology find out about the disappearance of the chairman and others, and finally find the sealed underground base, maybe they will find some clues.

Of course, when the time comes, those mutant beasts that have been released and have been hungry for a long time will cause anything ****, or even things like the second sad day in San Francisco, it will have nothing to do with Dong Xuan at all
