Chapter 198: The Precursor of War (Fourth Update)
(Thank you for the reward of two monthly passes each of 'Wind Speed' and 'Yang Hao I love you', thank you for your support!!) )
The summit meeting that was convened to discuss the mutant issue came to an abrupt end.
First, the copycat Iron Man broke into the venue and went on a killing spree, then the extinct creature dinosaurs wreaked havoc throughout New York, then the Red Tank defeated the Hulk and the Stone Man, and was bombarded by the magical girl who came out at Christmas, and finally, Alex appeared on the stage, easily defeated the terrifying Red Tank, and started to restore all the destroyed buildings in New York.
This scene, which was originally only in novels, television, and movies, was played out in just one night, and not only the citizens of New York could not accept it, but even the people of other countries around the world were shocked by it.
The strength of mutants and capable people is beyond the imagination of the people, and they need countries to introduce laws and policies that can protect them from harm to the greatest extent!
As a result, vigorous demonstrations, protests and other activities appeared on the streets of almost all countries, as if all the people had invariably stirred up overnight.
When the people at the bottom were making trouble, the people at the top of the leadership were also fluctuating.
The countries and regions whose leaders died in the turmoil on Liberty Island have challenged the U.S. government, and even threatened to send troops for revenge. And those leaders who survived, after seeing the power of mutants and the number of superheroes in New York, USA, their strategies for dealing with mutants directly reversed.
They contacted state agencies directly from the United States, and they were told to do their best to find highly capable mutants. He even instructed the news media to change their tune and retract the radical reports.
What happened that night made them realize. The United States has been ahead of other countries in terms of military strength, as well as in the talent pool of superheroes and mutants. Thinking about those non-humans whose strength is strong and perverted, they can't help but twitch in their hearts: if they don't step up the recruitment of mutants and superheroes, they will soon be left behind by the United States and lose their autonomy!
- For the sake of the country, we need mutants and superpowers!
With this realization, the leaders of all prescient countries have reversed the policies they had prepared to promulgate. Instead, they focused on discovering mutants and cultivating them carefully.
In this way, it seems to be a step forward to the day when Charles aims to realize the dream of "peaceful coexistence between humans and mutants". However, the relationship between countries is no longer restrained from the previous one, and it is conceivable that once the war between countries starts, powerful mutants will become new weapons with more combat value than nuclear weapons!
The clouds of invisible gunsmoke have begun to gather quietly. I just don't know when the trigger for war will happen!
…………
United States. New York, in a large conference room in dim light.
Some unrecognizable figures sat in the seats around them, all eyes fixed on a black one-eyed dragon.
"Nick. Fury! We didn't let you lead S.H.I.E.L.D. to let others know how bad our country's strength is! An old man spoke, his words full of majesty, "S.H.I.E.L.D.'s recent table is too disappointing!" ”
"I'm so sorry!" Fury bowed his head and didn't argue.
"The President is very dissatisfied with S.H.I.E.L.D., he thinks you moths have wasted too many national resources! If you don't show your value again, he will directly bypass us and disband S.H.I.E.L.D.! Another majestic old man's voice sounded. Fury, you and your S.H.I.E.L.D. don't have a few chances! ”
Hear the old man's speech similar to an ultimatum. Fury raised his head violently, with a hint of anger on his face, but after all, he was a person with strong restraint, and his retort was stopped by him at the moment when he was about to blurt out, and then, after calming down his feelings, he said in a low voice, "I won't disappoint a few adults again!" ”
"I hope so! According to the intelligence gathered by the Intelligence Agency, countries have begun to woo mutants and superpowers to carry out strategic material reserves. War could start at any moment, and if S.H.I.E.L.D. still can't play as well as it should, I promise to throw you in jail! A woman with a shrill voice said.
Fury lowered his head and didn't say anything.
"Fury, go find more, stronger, and more reliable comrades! Time is running out for us and even for the country! The old man who spoke first became a little softer, "As the last chance, we will be relatively open to you for great convenience, seize the opportunity!" Not everyone deserves it! ”
"Understood!"
Nick. Fury gave a respectful military salute and walked slowly out of the conference room.
…………
"Ding!!!!
Several glasses collided together, and Magneto and the others lightly printed a sip of red wine.
"How does it feel to be the boss of the Hellfire Club?" Emma, a mature and sexy royal sister, chuckled softly.
"Great! But thank you for your help. Magneto chuckled, "Without your help, how would I have known about Shaw's plan and used his actions to take control of the entire Hellfire Club." ”
"Hehe!!"
Emma smiled, noncommittal.
After gaining insight into Shaw's plan, Emma and Magneto secretly teamed up to make several sets of plans to plot against Shaw. When Shaw was accidentally hit by Scott's laser rays, and Magneto's own plan failed, they decisively reported Shaw's actions to the state, and used hostile forces to directly eradicate most of Xiao's forces in the open and in the dark.
Then, Magneto and Emma became the de facto rulers of the Hellfire Club.
"What are your plans for the future?" After chatting for a while, Emma returned to the topic, "The person who stopped your plan is very powerful, you shouldn't know it!" ”
Hearing this, Magneto put down his glass and remembered the man who created the miracle with one hand, "Of course I know this." There is no doubt that the strength of the other party is very strong, and with our current strength, it is not his opponent at all. However, fortunately, the other party did not side with the human side, and did not dislike my approach, which did not have much impact on our subsequent plans. ”
"Oh?" Emma looked confused.
"If he really was on the human side, he wouldn't let me go, and he wouldn't have made a move until the end! So, until we have a substantial conflict with him, our guy will not get in his way. Magneto explained, "Moreover, I've searched all over the globe for gifted mutants, and I can't find a compatriot to restrain him. ”
"I hope so!"
Emma took a sip of red wine and smiled lightly.
…………
"Bang!"
In a gloomy cabin, the exquisite glass was thrown to the ground, and Xiao, who was full of wolves, expressed the anger in his heart to the fullest, "Emma, that* actually teamed up with Magneto to plot against me!" You wait for me, I will never let you go! With a roar, he threw a punch down, shattering the couch beneath him.
After the failure of the copycat Iron Man surprise attack plan, he deliberately staggered the confrontation with Alex and attacked in person, seeing that the great work was about to be completed, but was stopped by Xia Ruisi, and finally accidentally knocked away by Scott, who was full of firepower. If it weren't for his subconscious ability to protect himself, he would have died by now!
The failure of the plan was enough to make Xiao Wo angry, but he didn't expect Emma and Magneto to join forces to betray him again, so that his assets and power were directly seized, and he became a street rat that everyone shouted and beaten!
"Jingle bell~~~"
Just when Xiao was thinking more and more angry, the phone in the room rang, Xiao walked over and picked up the phone, "What's the matter?" ”
“BOSS!” A man's voice came from the microphone, "We have followed your instructions and helped Livar. Mr. Tresk founded Tresk Industries, what else do you have to say? ”
Hearing the report from his subordinates, Xiao's mood changed significantly better, and then he ordered, "Good! You lurk around Trisk and help him with his research. Also, be careful not to let him betray us. ”
"What if he betrays?"
"Then kill the people and grab all the research materials!" Xiao said fiercely without hesitation, "Remember, anyone who betrays us will die!" ”
"Understood!" The subordinate on the other side agreed and hung up the phone.
"Emma and Magneto, you dog men and women are waiting for me! When Trisk's research comes to fruition, I'll reward you well! Hanging up the phone, a hideous smile appeared on Xiao's face...... (To be continued......)
