Betty was angry, angry at herself. She was angry at herself for being so easily provoked and dissatisfied by others, which almost led to a tragedy. If Bruce Banner was still the impulsive Hulk who knew how to transform, perhaps things would have become irreversible now.
If that was the case, Betty would feel guilty for the rest of her life. Fortunately, because Hydra's intelligence was inaccurate, they did not know that Banner could control his anger, which made the plan not successful.
Of course, Betty was even more angry at Hydra who used her as a gun. She was extremely angry, and this anger overwhelmed everything. Because Hydra's actions would cause chaos in the world for the public. And when it comes to Betty personally, it's a bigger problem.
Dr. Banner might die because of this incident, and General Ross would also be in danger of mutating into the Red Hulk because there was no way to treat him. If Tony and Banner died, it was unclear where Dr. Richards would go in the future.
Both of these results are what Betty is extremely unwilling to see. In the end, Betty is just a woman, no matter how strong and tolerant she is, her essence still remains the same. Appropriate selfishness and self-protection are instincts rooted in the genes.
So Betty temporarily forgot what she did to the arrogant Tony Stark. After all, it has already happened, and there is no point in holding on to it.
And the key factor that contributed to Betty's thinking this way was because she had another new target of hatred. She transferred her hatred for Tony Stark.
And this target is called Hydra! When she was resting with Dr. Banner at night, Betty lay on Banner's chest and said softly, "Why is Hydra so bad? I just want to live an ordinary life, and they all want to mess with me? "
Dr. Banner really couldn't answer Betty's question. How should he answer? Could he say, "Honey, I don't know. All of this is a play directed by Li Jie. " As for whether Hydra is so bad? Only the heavens would know.
Of course, this sentence can't be said. If he said it, then all of Li Jie's previous efforts would go to waste. So Dr. Banner could only sort out his thoughts, and after a while, he said, "Maybe this is why they are called villains! Destroying the peaceful and serene lives of the majority had crossed the bottom line of most people. Whether it was the massacre of Jews in the past, or the extreme discrimination against mutants and so on. "
"Only such a person can bear the name of the world villain!" Dr. Banner was glad that it was night and the lights in the room were still off.
Otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to lie with a straight face like Li Jie did. Moreover, he didn't even blush or gasp for breath, and his expression didn't change even in the face of millions of people. Anyway, when he said these words, Banner felt that his face was about to turn red.
Dr. Banner prayed that a liar would not go to hell. If he really had to go down, he could only think of a way to break out of hell.
Betty didn't know anything about Dr. Banner. She just lay on Banner's chest, drew circles on his chest with her fingers, and whispered, "They are so bad!"
"Yeah, yeah." Dr. Banner was inexplicably guilty. Fortunately, Betty was also a little lost at this time, and she didn't hear anything wrong with Dr. Banner's tone.
Betty continued, "Then you have to completely destroy them, okay? Whether it's by economic means, scientific means, or physical means! "
When she said the last sentence, Betty's voice suddenly rose, but her voice was not sharp. Instead, it was as pleasant as a bird's song, and it even sounded a little coquettish. But Banner knew that Betty would only speak in such a tone when she was very serious.
Betty was very angry, and only when she was very serious and very angry would she speak with this coquettish tone. This was not pretending, but suppressing the anger in her heart.
Since his girlfriend said so, how could Bruce Banner not agree? Would he dare not agree? What's more, Hydra was not a good bird to begin with.
Therefore, Dr. Banner only said without hesitation, "Okay, Betty, I promise you. I will eradicate this organization. With my greatest ability, whether it is intelligence or force, I will completely eliminate the existence of this organization on the earth in all senses! "
Dr. Banner swore a heavy oath. Betty smiled, grabbed Dr. Banner's neck, and kissed him. "Thank you, Bruce."
"No, no, it's my duty." In the night, Betty couldn't see Banner's awkward smile.
… …
Time never stands still because of someone's preference. While Li Jie and Lan were on vacation together at Betty's Happy Farm, time was slowly moving forward.
Dr. Ethan, who was far away in New York, received an investment from the Horizon Fund. More than a billion dollars in financing allowed his Zodiac Group to expand. Tony trusted Ethan very much, even unconditionally.
Li Jie knew that he shouldn't doubt this loyal and honest elder, but he was still worried. So Bucky Barnes, a new member of the Thunder Agents, was also sent to the Middle East to follow up on Dr. Ethan's affairs. Hopefully, everything is just a worry.
On the other hand, Nick also sent a message. [King Blackbat expressed his willingness to meet with Li Jie, and the location is up to him. The time is set for the fifth of January.]
"Why not earlier?" Li Jie raised his own question.
Nick's reply was thus: "Please! It's almost Christmas. King Blackbat is busy all year, and he's counting on Christmas to take a break. Don't you have the nerve to deprive him of his last holiday? He doesn't want you to idle around every day! "
"Huh?" I'm obviously doing proper things every day! Li Jie thought about Nick's complaints in his mind.
As for the remnants of the civilization of the previous era, would they celebrate Christmas in this era? Li Jie guessed that it was most likely a custom brought over by those who awakened as Mutants from Earth. This also proved Li Jie's original conjecture in another way.
That was, the Mutants couldn't rely on their own population to reproduce alone. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the civilization and culture of this era to occupy the mainstream of Mutant culture.
At least from the fact that King Blackbat wanted to celebrate Christmas, it was already a mainstream holiday among the Mutants. I wonder if they will celebrate the Spring Festival? Li Jie let his imagination run wild.
Speaking of Christmas, Li Jie and Lan bade farewell to the Happy Farm and let Banner and Betty enjoy some time alone.
Li Jie had to start preparing Christmas presents for his family and friends again. And this time, under Lan's hint, Li Jie also had to prepare a gift for the king. After all, he had taken care of Lan for so many years.
Last Christmas was not peaceful, and Li Jie prayed that it would be better this year. It had already begun to snow in New York. Li Jie touched the snow sprites that fell from the sky and sighed. "I hope we can have a peaceful New Year and Christmas this year."
In New York's Times Square, a news announcement was broadcasted. "An unknown kind-hearted person has just donated a huge sum of 85 million euros to the poor countries and regions of Asia. The goal is to help improve the local level of basic education and medical and health conditions. According to sources, this kind-hearted person is likely to be the winner of the Euromillion lottery who previously won hundreds of millions of euros. The following is the specific report … "
