"Hulk is our last line of defense. Judging from the current situation, it is the only combat power we have that can threaten that person," Nick answered affirmatively when questioned by the World Security Council.
A military expert next to him rushed to question, "But in front of our 'Creator', it seems to have no power to fight back!"
Nick looked at him coldly. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s series of failures since the arrival of the Creator seemed to have made some people restless. S.H.I.E.L.D. was not without competitors. Some people wanted S.H.I.E.L.D. to make a fool of itself and replace it. For such people, Nick's usual approach was "Listen!" The one-eyed man grabbed his collar and lifted the 1.8-meter-tall white man up.
His voice was thick with blood, "I know what you want to do. If it was a normal time, I can play these political games with you and let you die because of your own stupidity and ignorance. Parliament, democracy, balance, it's not that we don't know how to play. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s history is longer than the evolutionary history of you becoming a human. We will be checked and balanced because we are willing to do so! "
"We think that our power needs to be checked and balanced, so we put dangerous power in a cage and let idiots like you supervise us. But! But … "Nick pointed his finger at his eyes, and his murderous aura almost scared the poor man crazy," When we think it is necessary, we will be tyrants and dictators. "
"I am not asking for your consent!"
Nick looked around and his eyes swept across the faces of the politicians. His knife-like eyes forced them to swallow what they wanted to say. "I am just stating a fact. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s judgment, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s response, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s actions … "
At this point, there was a long pause before Nick's voice sounded again in the conference room, "Now. Does anyone have any questions? "
Glancing at the members of parliament who were sitting in their seats, Nick slowly put away the information at hand, "General Ross, we need the gamma-ray research data in your hands, and the manufacturing technology of the Hulk's Abomination clone."
"Of course, I can give it to you, but I must remind you," Old General Ross did not mean to argue with S.H.I.E.L.D. He solemnly reminded, "Abomination is different from that monster! I studied it for so many years. I've never seen or even thought of the changes it can make in space a few days ago. "
"Did you read the report submitted by NASA? General. "
"Of course, who can ignore them?" General Ross emphasized, "The Hulk is a monster. It's impossible for it to mutate like this because of gamma rays. The Earth's environment can't even give birth to such a species. It violates the most basic theory of evolution!"
"General, you should have the authority to access that information!" Nick raised his eyes, got up, and walked into the meeting room with General Ross. "To hell with the theory of evolution. Our ancestors were right. It was that group of apes. Their intelligence far surpassed that of humans, because Earth was a testing ground! It's normal for any creature to appear here! "
"As for Bruce, we must rescue him, General. We need it. "Nick slowly exhaled.
"This is NASA's business. Outer space matters are under their jurisdiction." General Ross flatly refused. He did not seem to object to rescuing Hulk, but he had no intention of intervening to help either. "Speaking of NASA, how are they going to explain to the public that we have an extra satellite above our heads?"
… …
Avengers Headquarters. The atmosphere seemed to solidify.
Stark Industries' Space Exploration Satellite recorded some of the astronomical data left by Chen Ang and Hulk during the battle. Now the entire Avengers are watching. Some of the optical data recovered by J.A.R.V.I.S., as well as the image data taken from Earth.
Except for the part of the data that was lost because light could not escape from the enclosed space. Almost the entire battle was reproduced here, from the beginning of Hulk's asteroid-like transformation, to the black area of the enclosed space and the black hole, and finally, Chen Ang sealed Hulk with the Five Fingers Mountain and pulled the celestial body that sealed Hulk back to Earth.
Tonny Stark sat with his head down. Their will was a little depressed. At this time, the moon was already in the sky. Looking at the silver-white celestial body next to the moon, all the Avengers had an inexplicable complex mood.
"It's none of your business, Tonny!" Colonel Rhode came over to comfort him.
"I can't do anything about what happened. That's the biggest problem. It's not that it has nothing to do with me, it's just that I can't do anything about it. Rhode, I chose to be a superhero because I don't want to face this kind of powerlessness. "Tonny was no longer frivolous as he used to be. He asked seriously," Should I give up? "
"Give up being a hero?" Rhode was shocked.
"No, no …" Tonny waved his hand and explained, "I mean give up my armor. It can't keep up with the times, can it?"
"What are you talking about? Tonny. The Mark Armor is your greatest creation! "Rhode replied excitedly.
"It is the most powerful weapon in the history of the earth, but it is only the earth. Look at the enemies we are facing. The gravitational coefficient created by Hulk and Dum is enough to tear the entire American continent apart. There are also black holes, material eruptions, and curvature fluctuations. These can erase our small planet from the universe. "
"Armor is still armor. Its carrier is destined to be unable to effectively utilize my technological strength. It can only make me look more like a hero." Tonny looked at the reddish-gold metal armor and said in confusion, "It is a hero's weapon, but it's not the most effective, dangerous, and efficient weapon, right?"
"You want to develop a new weapon?" Rhode squatted in front of Stark and asked in surprise.
"I once closed down Stark's weapons department to maintain peace. I didn't want the weapons I made to become tools of crime and murder. But it's different now, right? Hydra is powerless in front of Dum. The supercriminals even asked for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s protection, afraid that they would be captured by Skynet as human test material. "
When Rhode heard this, he knew that Stark was beginning to be tempted. "What do you want to do!"
"The most powerful weapon I have ever seen is Skynet. It can perfectly reflect the requirements of the designer. It is a cheap, powerful, and limitless weapon with unlimited future. Its power does not come from its inherent material structure and design, but from the technology it carries. It is a race and an intelligent individual, representing the industrial power that science relies on. "
Stark summarized the design of Skynet. "It is composed of three aspects. First is the industrial upgrade and self-replication ability, which represents unlimited productivity. Second is the unique will and infinite replicas, which makes it impossible to destroy and fearless of any enemy. Finally, its technology tree evolution ability, which represents unlimited future and possibilities. "
"Pim and I have a plan to imitate Skynet and create our own superweapon."
"I …" Rhode stood up in surprise. He wanted to say something, but he blinked and said with difficulty, "Did you ask for Nick's permission? Such a dangerous plan … "
"Nick's plan is a million times more dangerous than my plan!"
"What?" Rhode couldn't react.
"The Evolutionary Equation of Life, that's why Atlantis was destroyed!" Tonny shrugged and said, "And what Sentinel! Extremis! The Tesseract! He's willing to do anything to deal with Dum! "
"S.H.I.E.L.D. can't be so irrational!" Rhode shook his head. "What they do is no safer than that madman Dum."
"So I suspect that there is something we don't know. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s cautious attitude towards Dum is a bit strange! Although Dum is indeed powerful, S.H.I.E.L.D. seems to be ready for the destruction of the world before he showed any more aggression. What do they know? "
Tonny touched his chin. "I tried to check the files, it's very confidential."
Although he knew that Tonny was bold and lawless, he didn't expect him to say it in front of him so casually. Hacking S.H.I.E.L.D.'s files is a crime against national security, and Rhode's situation was a bit awkward. "That superweapon, how are you going to get it?" Rhode changed the topic.
"Pim and I are working on it together. Unfortunately, it would be great if Bruce was here! Pim suggested that I invite Dr. Chen Ang. He is an authority on energy and space physics, and his attainments in materials science are unparalleled … "
"So, Ultron is not a fantasy."
"Who?" Rhode interjected.
