Chapter 968 - The Kosovia Agreement
Edward led Coulson into the teleportation hall on the basement floor of the Starlight Tower's podium.
After several months of portal construction, the portal hall is already lined with hundreds of portals. All portals are based on metal discs, closed by a metal door when not in use, with a fingerprint and card identification system on the side of the door, plus only the owner of the Holy Light can use it, which is equivalent to three insurances.
"The training has been almost completed, and the deployment of personnel has also been completed. Coulson reported to Edward, "Now all the members of our Demon Hunter Alliance are already the owners of the Holy Light. ”
"It's glad you're using our word, Commander Phil. Edward laughed, "I'm almost leaving, and the Demon Hunter Alliance will be handed over to you." ”
Coulson himself has a kind face, a large mouth that usually looks like a smile. At this time, he heard that Edward was about to leave, but his face looked as if he was still smiling: "After you leave, the countries of the world will inevitably engage in a public opinion war against our Demon Hunter Alliance, but I think with our current ability, we should be able to deal with the past." ”
"So, before I leave, I'm going to settle this trouble for you. Edward looked at the thick book in his hand and said, "Hehe, it's been a few months since the battle of Kosovia, and those people can still use this excuse to come up with such an agreement, it seems that their intention to control us has not weakened." ”
"Edward, are you sure you don't need me to go with you to Washington?" Coulson said with some concern, "this incident is not a minor trouble. The fact that 101 of the more than 150 members of the World Security Council have adopted this agreement means that if we oppose it, we will be the enemy of those 101 countries. ”
"When the time comes, our branches of power in these countries will definitely be purged, and they will not be eliminated, but repatriation will be certain. ”
"That can't be helped. Edward laughed, "At most, we'll withdraw people from these one hundred and one countries." Since the governments of those countries do not allow us to exist, we can only do so in order to prevent unrest in these countries. ”
"I think things will get better. Coulson also laughed, "When the time comes, hopefully Wakanda will be able to accept the influx of immigrants." ”
"That's right, a rupture is not good for them. Edward smiled, "I can't see anything in the near future, once our Demon Hunter Alliance is gone, although each country also has its own secret forces, it will definitely not be able to deal with all kinds of inhuman troubles in the territory, especially the rice country with the most inhumans." They will soon reap the fruits of what they have sown. ”
"Alright, the meeting of the World Security Council is about to begin, and I have to go. Edward took out his card and swiped it, pressed his thumb on the fingerprint recognition system, and the metal door of the portal opened smoothly, saying goodbye to Coulson and stepping into the portal.
Due to the initiation of the Kosovo Agreement, the government of the United States did not allow the Demon Hunter Alliance to build a portal in the territory, and Edward could only teleport to the Alliance branch in Mexico first, spread the wings of the Holy Light and fly directly to Washington, DC, to participate in the world-renowned meeting of the World Security Council representatives on the Demon Hunter Alliance.
The reason for this meeting was the publication of a blurry video of the Battle of Kosovia, which was blurry but could still be seen as a large black object appeared in front of Edward, sucking the entire city into it, leaving not a single piece behind.
After the anonymous video was handed over to the World Security Council, it caused a huge panic among governments around the world.
The power of one man to destroy a city with a raise of his hand is not limited and supervised, and many people will not be able to sleep peacefully at night.
Coincidentally, after the video appeared, media outlets around the world followed suit and a copy began to circulate around the world, and the "demon hunter threat" reappeared.
Although this statement was strongly opposed by followers of the Light everywhere, who claimed that their Father of Light would never destroy the city for no reason, Edward did so to prevent Corsovia from falling. Moreover, they also elaborate on how they obtained the Light, believing that even if Edward wanted to destroy the world, he would be abandoned by the Light, even if he was the Father of the Light.
However, this kind of opposition is very much drowned in all kinds of public opinion, after all, there are not many good people in this world who can obtain the Holy Light, and in this materialistic world, there are still very few pure good people.
Coupled with the promotion of some well-intentioned people, the "Demon Hunter Threat Theory" has become very marketable, and there are calls for banning the branches of the Demon Hunter Alliance in various places.
The World Security Council and the United States initiated the meeting and produced a Cosovia agreement, claiming that the Demon Hunters and the original Avengers must be monitored by the World Security Council, and that the information and resources they possess must also be known to the Council.
Edward had a headache about attending such a meeting, but he had to bite the bullet to attend it.
Although the earth is a strange plane, it is undeniable that it has a huge population base, which is more than the population of any other plane. He had only been on Earth for about two years before he had already gained a tremendous amount of faith power.
The power of faith was absorbed by him, some of it remained in his heart of faith, and more of it was transmitted back to the native plane through his link to Ondashir, the soul of the Nest. Edward believed that the World Tree, now located in the eastern part of Free City, had grown very tall.
If it weren't for the fact that the plane core of this plane had not appeared, even if Charlie had not asked for it, Edward would have planned to annex this plane. According to Charlie, this plane is a "faith cultivation ground" of extremely high quality.
In order for the Demon Hunter Alliance to develop well on Earth, he must resolve this incident and make a good impression of the Demon Hunter Alliance in the world, in order to grow the number of followers of the Light.
Edward's arrival has long been monitored by the United States Air Force, and fearing Edward's strength, the United States military actually sent several fighters to fly with Edward.
Edward smiled bitterly, didn't make any moves, and after flying for a distance, he landed directly from the sky and landed in the square of the Pentagon, the main venue of the conference.
At this time, a large number of reporters from all over the world had gathered here, and the Mi Army had set up a cordon, and there were heavy guards around it.
As the external spokesperson of the Demon Hunter Alliance, Saya has been here for a long time and is being interviewed by several reporters, Aite and Kaknir are standing behind her, and the black dragon Hodman is also in the square.
As soon as Edward, dressed in a black suit, landed, the reporters abandoned Saya and rushed towards Edward en masse, but were stopped by a group of soldiers. One of the secretaries of state of the United States kindly explained to reporters why they did not accept interviews, saying that they could broadcast the meeting live at the beginning of the meeting.
"Looks like you're in trouble? Edward came to Saya and the others, and said with a smile.
"No way, I really didn't expect that my first time as a teacher, I would take over such a troublesome plane. Saya sighed, but still said with a smile on his face, "But this is not difficult for me, you don't need to say anything more at this meeting, let me speak." ”
"Ha, it seems that Shante has cultivated a good disciple. Edward smiled and patted Saya's shoulder with a wry smile, "I didn't expect that we came to this strange plane. It's best if this incident can be resolved peacefully, and if not, we in the Demon Hunter Alliance won't be afraid of anything. If the opposing nations insist on taking control of our Demon Hunter Alliance, then we will dismantle the Demon Hunter Divisions in those countries. ”
"There's no need to be so tough, Captain. "Although this shows our attitude, it still leaves a bad impression on people who don't know us." I know those people, what they want is nothing more than stability, anyway, we will leave after that, we can exchange this condition for the smooth development of the Demon Hunter Alliance. As long as they are given a step down, they will definitely compromise, after all, our popular support is very high, and if we take the liberty of banning our branches, the ruling party's support will definitely drop sharply in any country that wants to elect a president, which they absolutely do not want to see. ”
Edward was a little dazed, and when he saw that Saya swore to say this, he agreed in a daze, and did whatever she wanted.
After a period of greetings, shaking hands and getting to know each other, a large number of representatives from various countries of the world entered the Pentagon one after another. Subsequently, a large number of Mi troops appeared in the square and the surrounding area, and began to patrol and guard.
In one of the Pentagon's closest buildings, a team wearing the combat uniforms of American soldiers was gathering there, and a young man looked at the Pentagon in the distance expressionlessly, the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
If Edward or the Coulson Special Operations Team were here, they would have recognized this person as their operational specialist, Ward.
............
Edward sat down at the conference table and began to enter a state of light meditation in boredom. Others looked at him as if he was listening attentively to the World Security Council reading out the Kosovo Agreement, but in fact he was just listening, but not thinking.
Saya sat beside him, the corners of her mouth slightly curled, looking at the delegate who read out the agreement with the eyes of a clown. Aite and Kakniel stood behind her with expressionless faces.
The only delegates to the council who were able to enter the chair of the meeting were representatives of a few world powers, and many more sat in the surrounding auditoriums, along with the reporters.
After the delegate finished reading the agreement, the reporters turned their cameras to Edward and Saya. The former still looked like he wasn't going to say anything, but Saya stood up and began to explain the views of the Demon Hunter Alliance.
To the surprise of the council representatives, Saya did not strongly oppose it, but instead acted as a weakling, stating the contribution of the Demon Hunter Alliance to world peace and the price paid to solve a large number of difficulties.
The people present are all old fritters in the political arena, and they can see at a glance that Saya is trying to win sympathy. The meeting was broadcast live to the world, and with her crying expression and sharp words mixed with anger and anger, those politicians immediately felt that this girl was not simple.
Moreover, the World Security Council is not monolithic, in addition to the representatives of Wakanda, there are many representatives of developing countries who support the Demon Hunter Alliance, among which the representative surnamed Wang of China is the most. Probably because Edward had an oriental face, and the Demon Hunters League and the Followers of the Holy Light did give them great help, so they supported the Demon Hunter Alliance from the beginning and opposed the Kosovia Agreement.
Subsequently, the meeting entered the stage of routine quarrels, and one by one the well-dressed delegates stood up to express their opinions, but some people spoke right or supported, and the scene was very intense.
What world security, intelligence security, territorial sovereignty, etc., all the high-sounding words have been brought out by them, trying to overwhelm the arguments of the other side, as if it has become a debate competition......
"In my opinion, it is a fact that the Demon Hunter Knights are a group of alien visitors, and our earth has accepted you, and you should contribute to the earth!" said the representative of the rice country, "But what did you do after that? In Huaguo's words, it is the dove occupying the magpie's nest, hiding such a huge power, not to mention, but also developing its own religious followers around the world!"
"I don't deny that the arrival of the Demon Hunter Knights has injected a wind of justice into the earth, but it is a fact that it has huge security risks! Your leader Edward Lee alone can easily destroy a city, if he does something in the heat of the head, who else in this world can restrain him?"
After a protracted debate, the representative of the United States finally couldn't sit still, and his words became aggressive: "No one can be above the law, no matter how righteous or firm the hearts of the people are, they must be bound by the law, and you, the Demon Hunter Knights, as outsiders, should do more if you want to stay on the earth, instead of distorting public opinion here and wanting to have supreme rights!"
"The supreme right? Is that talking about us?" Saya was completely enraged by the words of the representative of the rice country, and said with a mocking expression on his little face, "Are you talking about you rice country itself?"
As soon as Saya's words came out, many delegates couldn't help but chuckle.
"Have we ever asked for the rights of the Demon Hunters since their inception? All we want is an office space, a building where we can sleep. It's nothing compared to what we give. Saya, "If this is also the supreme right, then I think the people who live in the slums of the United States are all presidents." ”
The representative of the United States turned red when he heard this, while the other representatives secretly scolded the pig teammate in their hearts, while the onlookers and representatives all laughed.
However, before they could finish laughing, the door of the conference room suddenly opened, and a team of American soldiers rushed in and began to shoot without hesitation!
