Chapter 702: Collapse and Evolution, Where Is the Hero?
With a look of depression and despair, Pierce and his minions were all imprisoned. General Ross, who was once a prisoner, was released, and once again, temporarily took over the command of the aerospace carrier.
For him, it was almost the same as being kissed by the goddess of luck. But to be honest, he was not so willing to accept this situation. And the main reason for this is because of the guy who just saved him.
Hulk, Bruce Banner. No matter which identity he is, he will feel disgusted for a while. The former is the monster that ruined his dreams, while the latter is the man who took his daughter. Just relying on either of these two identities, he has sufficient reasons to regard him as an enemy. In fact, he's been doing it all along. But now, he can no longer maintain this position, because of a very important reason. That's the Hulk saving him.
The kindness of saving lives is the greatest kindness to anyone. It was precisely because of this that General Ross had to change his attitude towards him. Although he still hated him, no matter what, he couldn't do the kind of thing that repays kindness with revenge. So, he could only stalk his neck and said to Bruce.
"Listen, Banner. I thank you for saving me. We can undo everything. But don't expect me to be grateful for you. And don't think I'll agree to give you my daughter!"
"Thank you very much, Mr. Ross. But I also want to make one point, that is, I'm afraid you don't have any right to make decisions about Betty. Don't forget, Betty is living with me now!"
Bruce Banner, who had returned to his human form, sighed at General Ross's stubbornness. Although this was a good start, he still felt that he still had a very long way to go. Moreover, he was not prepared to follow him on this road. After all, son-in-law and father-in-law are natural enemies, whoever shows weakness will only end in complete defeat. And he didn't want to lose in this after going through so much. Therefore, his reply was sharp and sharp, pointing directly at the greatest pain in General Ross' heart.
It's uncomfortable to have the scars uncovered, but at least Ross still has some self-control, and he didn't turn his family conflicts into a family farce in front of everyone in front of the public.
He just glanced at Bruce with a livid face, and then said to Tony.
"Stark, what are you going to do next?"
"What should I do? If you are going to beg me to let me let you go, then you can save it. Although you are also a victim of being deceived, you have to do it for yourself anyway." Wrong to pay. If it weren't for you bastard, I don't think America would be in such a bad situation at all."
Tony was almost cursing as he answered Rose's question.
After hearing his words, Rose opened his mouth and asked dejectedly.
"What's the situation? I mean the situation in our country!"
"Thank goodness, you still know how to care about the situation in our country. Should I be thankful that you have saved some military fire for the United States, so that it has not completely fallen into your hands!"
Tony's tone was still fierce, like a dynamite bag that had been ignited. But for this performance, General Ross lowered his head deeply, scratching his hair weakly.
"Stop it, Stark. Please don't! Tell me what a mistake I've made and what's wrong with our country now."
From a military point of view, General Ross was not wrong. He is just fighting for his own country. Although he chose the wrong partner and goal, his spirit and thought are worthy of recognition. It was precisely because of understanding this that Tony restrained his emotions reluctantly towards him.
"The situation is very bad. Now the whole of the United States is discussing the fiasco of your attack on Huiyao City. Zhou Yi and the others have made sufficient preparations. Everything you have done has been recorded and posted online. And your fiasco has also become Inflicted the greatest loss and shame in the entire United States, and it will be remembered by everyone."
"Almost every state and every city is denouncing the government's move. This huge loss has made almost all Americans no longer trust the current government. Some people have put forward slogans in different cities to completely Abolish the current government and re-elect a new leader who can truly lead the United States. This has also brought the government into conflict with most of the marching citizens. Now the entire United States is full of violence, government and personal .At this point, you need to take full responsibility!"
Talking about the internal situation in the United States, Tony's tone became very bad. The current situation in the country is so chaotic that he can't look directly at it. If he didn't know the reason for all this, he really doubted that he was staying in those war-torn Middle Eastern countries, not in the United States, a paradise on earth.
After listening to his words, General Ross showed even more remorse. He never thought that such a terrible thing would happen, and he didn't want such a thing to happen before his own eyes and in his own hands. For a patriot, it is more painful to inflict such terrible damage on his own country with his own hands than to kill him.
And this is just the beginning.
Although he has seen the painful performance of General Ross, Tony has no intention of stopping at all. He is still talking, telling him how bad America is now.
"This is only the domestic situation, and the situation abroad will only get worse. More than one country has begun to openly question the reason why the United States launched an intercontinental missile equipped with a nuclear warhead without authorization. The credibility and security of our country have been threatened by the whole world. Humans in the world questioned. What’s more damning is that because you mobilized the fleet. Now our fleet is attacked by some counterattacking mutants.”
"The Second Fleet of the Atlantic Fleet, the Third Fleet of the Pacific, and the Seventh Fleet. Now they are all controlled by those mutants, and they have become weapons in their hands. This has led to the most serious result, that is, we have completely lost A military force that has spent decades and painstakingly built up around the world."
"Having lost control of the fleet in the Asia-Pacific region, Japan and South Korea have chosen to use nuclear weapons to launch an attack, blatantly declaring that they will break away from the control of the United States. And those countries we have fostered have also learned this trick. Now, above the entire world , we have nothing. Whether it is power or status, we have lost everything. Moreover, you have made us hostile from the world because of the stupid things you did."
"Start war without authorization, use military sanctions against the people of your own country without authorization, use large-scale nuclear weapons without authorization, and dare to attack the gods. Believe me, even those religious fanatics are not the existence we should provoke at this time, but You not only provoked, but also directly stabbed this hornet's nest."
"Do you know? As a god-worshiping sect that has just emerged in this world, although it has not yet been recognized by that person, it is already full of crazy fanatics. Do you want to believe it, maybe from now on, it has already There is a guy who doesn't even care about his own life, holding explosives, and heading to any city in the United States. He is going to use God's punishment as an excuse to give us a big surprise!"
Stark's words made General Ross even have the strength to tear his own hair.
He understood Tony's words very thoroughly, and because of this thoroughness, he was more aware of what a terrifying scene it would be. It is an unacceptable pain for any patriot that the once magnificent and prosperous America has become such a chaotic country full of violence, madness and destruction. What makes him feel even more painful is that he almost caused all of this with his own hands.
Because of my own hands, I turned the motherland I was loyal to into a hell on earth, which is an unbearable blow to any normal person. That will make people feel extremely heavy guilt. And this sense of guilt may even be an easy relief for most people to kill themselves.
But Rose knew that he couldn't just free himself so easily. It was easy for him to kill himself, but after that, his country may get worse. So he must take responsibility for this, and he must stand up at this time to redeem all this by means of atonement.
But how to restore it? This is the most difficult question. Rose, who couldn't think of any clue at all, could only look at Tony for help at this time, and at the same time said to him hopefully.
"Tony Stark, I know you're a smart man. Please, tell me how I can make it right. If I can make it right for what I did, if I can do it for everything I've done. Redemption, then you kill me, take my life, I will not say a word no. Tell me, Stark, what should I do!"
"I want your life. If it's useful, trust me, I won't hesitate."
Annoyed enough to wave his hand, Tony replied rather impatiently.
"What to do, if I knew, I wouldn't have such a headache. Damn, this is bringing the whole country to the point of collapse, what the hell can I do in this situation?"
"You can do something, Tony!"
Just when Tony was having a headache and irritated by this, a familiar voice suddenly broke in.
"Or, at this time, only you can take over this burden and do something. This is the time when a hero is needed, and you, Tony Stark, you are the hero that is needed!" (To be completed continued.)
