The earth has been really busy recently. The aftermath of the Skrull incident has not faded away, and there are invasions of fantasy creatures happening in various places. Some creatures that only existed in legends began to appear in the human world. But most of them appear in New York and London.
Let's not talk about New York... This place has always been jokingly called the center of the universe, and everything can be related to it. However, some people on the Internet have summarized it and found that although there is a lot of destruction in New York, the real destruction events are not its turn.
Take Miami for example. To be honest, Miami is really not well-known in the world. It’s just that Americans think Miami is good. Just like when people talk about France, Paris will be the first thing that comes to mind. As for other cities, you need to think carefully before you can think of one or two.
Apart from drug dealers and Hispanic gangsters, there really isn't anything particularly surprising in Miami. There are also very few supernatural incidents, barely even one in a year. But then a group of titans partyed there, and the whole city was gone. …
In comparison, New York is so lucky!
There is always something going on, but it won’t be a fundamental crisis!
People don’t think too much about deep things, they just blame it all on New York’s superheroes!
This is indeed the case.
The existence of these superheroes has indeed protected New York.
The most typical one is the comparison between New York and London.
New York and London are the two cities most visited by fantasy creatures.
But when New Yorkers see London in the international news, they don’t feel that London and they are treated in the same way... London is so miserable. Many wealthy people in London have now begun to move away from London, and the hollowing out is getting more and more serious.
In this short period of time, thousands of people have been killed and injured in London. This is the result of the British government's maintenance regardless of cost. Although Dai Ying has always been a non-human being and dared to deceive even domestic people, the problem is that those fantasy creatures do not reason with the government. No matter how much Dai Ying deceives, those strange creatures are still in the city. Destruction everywhere.
What about New York?
There were indeed casualties, less than a hundred people. A big city encounters such a big incident, with only these casualties... The New York government can definitely go to the church to offer incense to the gods.
Of course, if you really want to incense, it is best to incense those superheroes.
There are too many superheroes in New York.
The four little spiders and Norman will also dress up as the Green Goblin to help. In addition, the Defenders, Special Agents, and some of the superheroes who came to New York to fight the Skrulls before have not left, such as Frank, Logan and Wade, plus The Hulk, Ghost Rider Johnny and Strange, who originally lived in New York, finally came down, at least twenty of them.
By the way, Bruce also has a restless temper. Although this is not his world, it is not his turn to attack criminals, and he does not have 'law enforcement power', but combating alien creatures does not need to be so clear-cut.
There's just a small problem.
Bruce Batman's costume caused a lot of dissatisfaction with many people.
Although he saved people.
But it caused quite a bit of controversy.
The general public still has some goodwill towards Bruce's 'copycat', but the same can't be said for superhero fans. Most people can't even imagine how high the status of Batman and the King of Knights is among these superhero fans.
Bruce is also Batman.
But his fighting style and even his equipment are different from Batman in this world.
This makes him a poor imitator.
This is blasphemy!
As a result, overwhelming criticism came one after another online.
And it has also spread from the Internet to the real media.
All in all, the discussion was very high.
Bruce is not a person who cares about evaluation, otherwise he wouldn't be doing this. But I'm still a little speechless. Damn it, I'm Batman!
Feeling offended.
In the end, it was Little Spider who helped him clear his name.
It's not that he tells his true identity. After all, parallel worlds are too nonsense, and it's better for the public not to know.
He only briefly accepted an interview with the media during a heroic act, and said that Bruce is a person recognized by Batman.
This can be regarded as settling a lot of debates. Of course, there is no shortage of fundamentalism on the Internet... Harry Potter fans even expelled the Harry Potter author from the Harry Potter circle.
However, there are not many such people.
But most people still don't want to call Bruce Batman or Batman II, but give him a pretty good nickname.
dark Knight!
That sounds cool.
Bruce also had some comfort.
Closer to home, since there are so many superheroes in New York, the damage caused by the invasion to New York is not great, and the people of New York also expressed their emotional stability... Even because London, the financial center, suffered, more international funds began to pour in. Take refuge in New York.
Instead, it accelerated New York's prosperity.
In fact, some economists have already proposed the concept of a superhero economy. After all, New York's ability to maintain a very high growth rate when the United States as a whole is in decline is inseparable from those superheroes.
This led to New York citizens automatically and consciously starting to protect those superheroes.
It cannot be said that there are no forces and groups hostile to superheroes in the United States. In fact, there are quite a few. But at least in New York, no one is really hostile to the superhero community.
Because they are not only linked to their safety, but also linked to the economy!
These two things are closely related to every New Yorker, and touching superheroes is touching their interests.
Americans are very sensitive when it comes to personal interests. They dare to elect anyone who touches their cheese!
This is considered a binding of interests.
Since ancient times, true love cannot be retained, only benefits can move people's hearts.
This thing is much more powerful than doing good deeds to move people.
Although saying this is a bit utilitarian, and it feels like the original intention of superheroes to do good things has been blasphemed, in fact, this is the reality. Most superheroes come out to do good deeds for their own reasons, but none of them come forward for external evaluation. They do it more for self-satisfaction.
That's good. You can't say that you don't ask for anything in return for doing good deeds, and you can't be morally satisfied with yourself, right?
Those who really do good deeds without asking for anything are saints, and they only exist in legends.
Anyway, there is absolutely no such person in the real world.
…
Alcatraz.
The Alcatraz here is not the Alcatraz in San Francisco.
The Alcatraz here refers to Rikers Island Prison in New York, where many fictional characters in movies are imprisoned. In reality, it is also a very dangerous and terrifying place. Rikers Island Prison is located on an island in the East River, between Queens and the Bronx, near LaGuardia Airport, covering an area of 400 acres (1.65 square kilometers). It has a large number of cells and holds about 11,000 people, many of whom are suspects awaiting trial.
Rikers Island is not a nice place, it is one of the ten most brutal prisons in the world.
This shabby place has always been plagued by poor sanitary conditions and violence. Deaths of prisoners in custody occur almost every year. The causes of death of prisoners are mostly related to suicide, overdose, etc. There have long been calls to dismantle Rikers Island Prison, which has long been known as a concentration camp in modern society.
In fact, the New York City government has also made efforts.
But the results were not great. In the end, the city government, driven by this mayor, decided to rectify it, such as abolishing the prison and using the land to build an airport.
However, as the world environment changed, this prison still escaped the fate of being demolished.
The New York government plans to convert it into a modern super prison.
Used to hold special prisoners.
The prison, which was originally used to incarcerate 11,000 people, was extensively renovated and the maximum number of prisoners was reduced to 500.
Moreover, more than 700 armed personnel were stationed on the island as guards.
Its internal facilities have also been completely transformed by the Stark Group, and various high technologies have been applied to ensure that anyone locked in it has no possibility of escape.
At first glance, this configuration is not for ordinary people.
Its 'service' targets are the most ferocious and special prisoners.
So far, the number of people detained here does not exceed 100. Absolutely top treatment!
Each one has a single room, and the environment is good!
Of course, there is a price to pay for such good treatment.
The guys trapped in it either have superpowers, such as some ferocious mutants, or are aliens, such as those hunted by demon hunters, or are aliens... There are only a few of them at present. The Skrulls were the remnants of the Skrulls after the Secret War.
But there is no doubt that these guys have extremely high research value.
The federal government is willing to pay the New York government a huge amount of money for this.
However, Stark Group and Wayne Group were not involved and were only responsible for the design and construction. Maintenance and research were not controlled by these two consortiums and were completely handed over to the federal government.
Recently a new batch of tea has arrived here.
Some trolls and giants.
This excited the researchers. There are some unknown new species again.
"I need some information. You can do whatever you want. It doesn't matter if you die. There will be more information anyway."
Kai led a group of people into this highly technological prison.
Following him was Team X.
A special mutant force under direct command of the U.S. government.
Due to a series of changes, the U.S. government has been strengthening the team. In fact, the establishment of Team X has expanded a lot.
I heard that the White House has planned to transfer the jurisdiction of Team X to the Secret Service, making the team a special force under the direct command of the President.
Kai needs some information, but these tough men from other worlds in the Nine Realms are all very harsh. Of course, it is more likely that they do not understand the earth's language at all. So intelligence collection has always been very poor. So Kai can only ask for support, but he is not omnipotent.
Thinking of this, Kai felt a little regretful. He should have asked Tony to focus on studying the universal translator on Star-Lord and the others. This kind of thing is very common in the universe. After all, there are so many civilizations in the universe, each one has its own unique language, and most languages have nothing in common. Many races even have different structures of vocal organs.
In order to facilitate communication, implantable universal translators came into being.
When Star-Lord and the others were still there, someone did plan to study this. But I finally gave up.
First of all, the priority of researching this thing is not high. If you leave all kinds of interstellar materials, interstellar spacecraft engines, space jump engines and various high technologies and don't study it, isn't it just a disease to study translators?
Secondly, the technological content of this thing is too high!
Yes, this kind of prop that is very common among the stars is actually very high-tech! First of all, this thing is implantable and directly connected to the language system of the human brain. Just this one requires a very high level of materials science, engineering, biotechnology, etc. to be able to handle it, let alone other aspects. .
The time, manpower and material resources required to understand it are terrible.
Finally, this thing is not very practical in application. The earth will have no need for this in a short period of time. People on earth cannot leave for the time being, and aliens do not come to earth for peace. Most of the time, everyone just goes to work.
And after going out, it seems that you can just buy it, and there is no need to make it yourself.
So this thing was simply ignored by everyone.
Who knows, this is exactly what I need right now.
There was no other way, so Kai had to find a way.
Fortunately, although there are not many mutants with psychic abilities among mutants, there are still some.
So Kai simply called for help.
So the White House directly sent a team of mutants to assist Kai.
Oh, by the way, the Scarlet Witch is here too.
She also has the ability in this area.
This little girl is now employed by Stark Corporation.
Originally, it was unlikely that a talent like her would be employed by a private group, but this was the United States. Private armed forces are normal. Although mutants are a little more troublesome, as long as the White House nods, it won't be a big problem.
"let's start!"
Soon a troll was driven over.
This kind of big guy is actually the prison guard's least favorite prisoner. They are not easy to manage. Their abilities cannot be suppressed by any means. For example, mutants only need to install ability suppressors and they will become ordinary people. But trolls No, they are pure physical structures and cannot be restricted at all. They can only be injected with muscle relaxants and sedatives every day, and they are half dead. But in this way, it takes a lot of effort to clean them every day.
The leader of the mutant team who came to New York on business this time was an acquaintance.
Beast Boy Hank McCoy is the only survivor of the original X-Team. When the other members fought against the Hellfire Club, all of them died. Frank, who was in charge of training Team
After that, Hank became the veteran of the X-Team, and now that Frank has left, he has become the leader of the X-Team.
Hank's mutant ability is very conspicuous... Just like the ancient ape, he has thick hands and feet, and long blue hair all over his body. He has superhuman strength and can lift more than a ton of weight. He can easily climb brick walls, and Able to fight on a tightrope. He also has the ability to secrete pheromones to attract the opposite sex. His hands and feet have sharp claws. He also has cat-like night vision and a slight healing factor. He can quickly recover from ordinary wounds and minor illnesses such as colds.
Moreover, Hank himself has a super high IQ and is proficient in professional knowledge such as human evolutionary biology, genetics, and biochemistry. He is also involved in other scientific fields.
Super academic.
"Qin, come on!"
The biggest treasure of Jean Gray The control ability renders the opponent unconscious. She possesses telekinesis, can levitate and manipulate various objects, create power barriers, fly, and can also stimulate the generation of heat molecules to create rapid shock waves.
She is the only Omega-level mutant discovered so far.
A secret weapon belonging to Team X.
However, because her awakening ability is still in the training stage and she is not proficient, the White House has always chosen to keep her in cold storage to let her grow slowly. But this time, even she has been queued up, which shows that the White House still attaches great importance to Kai.
Following Beast Hank's command.
A young red-haired girl came out. She looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was in high school. (A pure passer-by character will never have a role in the future, and naturally there will be no super-standard setting like the Phoenix Force)
