In the year 2099, Norman Osborn had decided to carry out a human elimination operation. Now the earth couldn't support so many humans. So he had to get rid of the superfluous humans. Only in this way could he continue to rule the world smoothly.
But killing humans was also a technical job. Because there were 11.5 billion humans in the world, he could only keep 700 million people, and the remaining 10.8 billion had to be killed. If this plan were to be leaked, his rule would immediately become unstable. Even if he had a group of cloned hero corps. But he couldn't resist the vast sea of people.
Therefore, Norman needed to carry out his human purification plan more secretly. At least a direct slaughter couldn't be done. Norman decided to create a terrible epidemic and use the epidemic to kill the superfluous humans bit by bit. For example, it would take three years to eliminate five billion people, and then three years to eliminate the other five billion people.
This way, it would be secretive enough, and no one would know that all this was done by him. It should be known that the main medical services in the world were now provided by his Alchemy Group. When he produced the special medicine to treat the disease depended entirely on his mood. If he needed the special medicine to appear, then the special medicine would appear. If he didn't want the special medicine to appear, then the special medicine wouldn't appear.
Of course, Norman wasn't stupid. He knew that the world couldn't just rely on the so-called "elites" to continue to operate. Norman remembered an old movie from his time, "Ace Agent". In the first movie, the villain decided to eliminate most people in the world to purify the world, leaving only the so-called elites. But the villain forgot that the elites couldn't do dirty and tiring work as industrial workers and farmers.
The main reason why Norman could still remember this old movie after so many years was that the villain in the first movie looked like the director of S.H.E.L.D. – the one-eyed Nick Fury.
In the new world set by S.H.E.L.D., the so-called elites would be kept, but not too many. This was because the so-called elites were very troublesome. They were always thinking about getting a share of their power and wealth. These people were too annoying. Norman decided to kill all the elites except for a small number of obedient and honest elites to maintain the basic operation.
He needed to keep some honest researchers who were focused on scientific research and ignorant of worldly affairs. There were also a large number of industrial workers and farmers. These were the main groups that Norman needed to preserve. The people at the bottom of society were always easy to control, and the maintenance of the foundation of society could not do without these people.
Q: Why doesn't Norman use a large number of robots to replace human labor in the world of 2099?
Answer: Because robots consume a lot of resources!
A person walking 100 kilometers on foot would consume 30 steamed buns, and a car driving 100 kilometers would consume 10 liters of gasoline. Although this analogy was somewhat inappropriate and one-sided. But from a certain perspective, manpower was sometimes more resource-efficient than machinery.
Norman remembered the industrial workers of the early 21st century. They were able to do a lot of rough and heavy work, unlike the industrial workers nowadays, many of them did not do particularly heavy work.
"The limits of humans are higher than these people think. In the future, they will need to work hard to survive. Otherwise, the continuation of human civilization will not be good. "Norman felt that he was saving the world.
And Norman's [Save the Earth Operation] had already begun after he signed his secret order. After all, it was not easy to eliminate five billion people in three years. Every second had to be grasped, or it would be too late.
Of course, according to Norman's request, a virus that was difficult to cure began to spread among the elites. The first to spread was the group of people who played in the virtual economy. In the new world that Norman planned, there was no place for this group of people. At least not at the beginning. In the future, it would depend on whether there was a need for it.
Norman wanted a new world with a stronger industrial atmosphere, and everyone to work. Other than himself, there should not be any so-called capitalist class in this world. There was only one bourgeoisie in the new world, and everyone else should live in a relatively equal communist class. This way, the world would be more peaceful.
Then, Norman spread the virus to the political and business elites. These people always wanted to divide power from his hands, and he was annoyed to death. It was best for these so-called elites to die.
The first to spread the virus were these two types of people. Instead, it was the people at the bottom of society that Norman did not start to consider spreading the disease. Because it was easy to deal with the people at the bottom, he had more than a hundred ways to deal with them. As long as there was no so-called elite class to incite the people at the bottom, the people at the bottom were nothing to worry about. Norman's thoughts were very clear.
His plan had already begun. Of course, if any virus wanted to spread, it couldn't be the priority to open the death gene, but the priority to spread the gene. Norman was not ready to directly kill a group of people first. In fact, the virus he pointed out was actually just a trigger. To really make these viruses break out and threaten death, another drug was needed. As for this catalyst drug, it would only be used when Norman felt that the time was right.
So when Li Jie came to the world of 2099 with the Arc Reactor made by Dr. Doom, which looked like a searchlight, he saw in the news that a severe influenza had swept the country and was spreading everywhere.
In order to prevent himself and his companions from getting infected with the 2099 flu (because who knew what the 2099 flu would mutate into, maybe it would be a super virus when he returned to his own world), Li Jie and the others made layers of precautions.
"Is this the divine artifact that you said was used to break Norman's game?" Miquel looked left and right. No matter how he looked, he felt that the thing Li Jie brought was like a searchlight.
"Yes, it is this thing. Although it looks like a searchlight, this thing is actually a very strong reactor. " Actually, this thing is a very powerful Reaction Furnace. "Li Jie patted the Reaction Furnace variant given by Dum.
"How do you use this thing??" The female Captain Roberta also came over. The other Great Lake Avengers were also very curious. (Li Jie only found out now that Mr. Immortal and the others had formed a team called the Great Lake Avengers in order to pay homage to the Avengers.)
Li Jie took out a ring and a manual from his pocket.
"Wait, let me look at the manual first. Oh, before you use this thing, you have to open it with the password, and then you can charge this ring. After charging, the ring is a mobile power station, and can be used for various energy supplies. Let me see what the activation password is, I got it! " Li Jie looked through the manual written by Doom and found the way to use this Arc Reactor variant.
He began to read the activation password of the reactor loudly: "The day is bright, the night is vast. Demons and monsters, there is nowhere to hide. Heretics and rebels, fear my holy light. The green light is long, the light of all ages! Open! " Li Jie gently hit the searchlight-like reactor with the ring, and the reactor immediately ignited. A green light shot into the ring on Li Jie's hand, and the ring also emitted a green light.
