Chapter 1,785: The Changing Situation (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!!! Please Subscribe!!! Please Recommend!!)

Then the next question.

Where is Om?

For now, both Kai and Meila agree that Om is in Xiaobawang! Because the matter is very simple, if Om is not in Xiaobawang, how did Xiaobawang know where the Dark Trident is hidden?

So everyone's idea is very simple, go to Xiaobawang, retrieve the Dark Trident, and then bring it back to Om.

As for Guangming Zhengda asking Xiaobawang to hand over the artifact and Om, it is probably unlikely.

Do it as soon as you say it.

Everyone took action immediately, and Kai also informed the US government of the intelligence about the Dark Trident, and urged the US government to suppress Xiaobawang and not let them really use the power of the artifact. Otherwise...

The US government acted quickly. After they learned the intelligence about the Dark Trident, they immediately contacted Xiaobawang's government.

And sternly warned that once this artifact is used, it will cause unpredictable consequences.

The biggest consequence is that they will completely offend the Atlanteans!

Unfortunately, Xiaobawang didn't care at all. In their view, it is not difficult for the United States to obtain intelligence. The relationship between the two countries is so close that there are people on both sides. There are really too many politicians and officials in the United States who are pro-Little Bully.

You know, their influence is definitely not limited to the United States. In the view of former American intelligence officer Girard, this has become a "global phenomenon". In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Western European countries, there will be a well-organized and well-funded lobbying organization ready to protect their interests at any time.

More than ten years ago, two famous American international relations scholars, John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walter, wrote a research result entitled "The Little Bully Lobby and American Foreign Policy". However, they could not find any media in the United States willing to publish their works at that time, and finally they could only publish it in a British magazine. "The huge influence of the Little Bully lobbying group in the West depends on its ability to not allow people to talk about them." The American MintPress news website commented.

The two American scholars wrote in the book that the reputation of this lobbying group in Washington circles is "frightening." A U.S. congressional staff member once told journalist Michael Masin: "We can count more than half of the House of Representatives - 250 to 300 people, who will do anything AIPAC (you can check this organization online, I won't explain it here) asks them to do." Steven Rosen, a former AIPAC official, also used an example to illustrate the power of the lobbying organization - he put a napkin in front of Jeffrey Goldberg, a reporter from The New Yorker magazine, and said: "In 24 hours, we can get 70 senators to sign on it."

AIPAC has been famous for many years. 20 years ago, it ranked second in Fortune magazine's "Most Powerful Lobbying Organization in Washington". Today, it is generally regarded as the largest and strongest Israel lobbying organization in the United States. In 2015, nearly $4.19 million was spent on pro-Israel lobbying in the United States, of which AIPAC accounted for $3.388 million.

However, it is quite difficult to get in touch with this famous group. AIPAC's headquarters is a newly built modern building located on H Street in northwest Washington. The security at the entrance of the building is very strict, and even the organization's employees have to go through security checks every day. An AIPAC employee told the Global Times reporter that the organization originally rented office space in a building, and later built its own building due to "confidentiality issues." The Global Times reporter contacted AIPAC for interviews many times, but received no response.

AIPAC's lobbying method is not to donate directly to politicians. During the presidential election, the organization did not clearly state who it supports, but mainly focused on propaganda work. In terms of lobbying members of Congress, each lobbyist has a specific division of labor. For example, Time magazine once reported that Arthur Kof, a member of the organization, was responsible for lobbying 14 senators and 65 congressmen.

Overall, AIPAC's lobbying expenses are not high in the United States. In 2016, it spent $3.602 million, ranking only 134th among 3,741 lobbying organizations. In contrast, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce spent more than $100 million on lobbying in 2016.

Although it seems that the money is not much, in fact, it is only the amount on the surface. The real interests are all in private. No one can tell how big these interests are.

In short, it is enough to know that Xiaobawang has a very close relationship with the United States.

But just like the interaction of forces, Xiaobawang is closely connected with the United States, and many people in it are also connected with the interests of the Americans.

So although Xiaobawang tried his best to keep it secret, he still didn't think he could completely hide it from the United States.

But Xiaobawang still didn't say a word about it, and the reason was very simple. They didn't know what the Dark Trident meant to Atlantis. To them, the words the United States said were more like intimidation, wanting them to hand over the artifact.

But how could Xiaobawang do this?

Although Xiaobawang and the United States are closely connected, it doesn't mean that they are really a family. In fact, even if they are as close as a family, it's useless.

They are two independent individuals. No matter how much Xiaobawang relies on the United States, it is impossible to really hand over the artifact. What's more, they are only as close as a "family", not a family, and their interests are not exactly the same.

Especially at this stage, with the rise of new energy, the importance of the Middle East to the United States has further decreased, and the United States' need for Xiaobawang has also begun to decline rapidly. The reason why the United States still stands on the side of Xiaobawang is entirely due to political inertia, Xiaobawang's strong influence in the United States, and religious reasons.

I won't explain the religious reasons in detail, there are many interpretations on the Internet.

I can only say that at this stage, the interests of the United States and Xiaobawang are absolutely inconsistent!

So how could Xiaobawang hand over his artifact to the Americans?

That's what they use to save their lives!

Then the United States was perfunctory.

To be honest, the Americans didn't have much bad intentions this time, and their starting point was good. But Xiaobawang didn't give face, which made the Americans angry enough, but they still tried their best.

But Xiaobawang had only one attitude - no, fake, don't bother!

There was no way, the White House trusted Kai's intelligence, because Kai had proved that he would not speak casually. But the problem was that Xiaobawang didn't trust him.

In the final analysis, it was the same sentence, if we were not a family, it would be too extravagant to talk about trust.

The two sides haven't talked about anything yet.

Then something big happened.

The war came.

The war came very suddenly.

Countless corpses of marine creatures suddenly appeared on land. What's more amazing is that these things can actually move on land. Although it looks a bit strange, the scene is really very scary.

A group of messy corpses of marine creatures, wrapped in an unparalleled stench, rushing towards you in a mighty way, and everyone will shudder.

This scene is really terrible.

The little tyrant defeated the resistance forces in the north in one fell swoop!

It was so overwhelming.

Soon the front line advanced to the level before the war, and even thought about going deep into the enemy country.

At the same time, a very, very powerful middle-aged man appeared in the little tyrant formation. He was wrapped in black air with green light, holding a black trident in his hand, and every swing could cause huge damage.

Not only that, he could also control a kind of green flame. These flames are very scary. Once any living person is infected by this flame, his skin and flesh will melt immediately, and he will eventually become a staggering zombie.

More importantly, this thing can't be extinguished with water at all!

Some resistance fighters have also thought about directly carrying out a decapitation operation to kill the guy holding the black trident.

But it's useless. This guy is not only inferior to swords and guns, but even hot weapons can't kill him.

They tried to focus on him with rockets and blow him to pieces. But even so, he can only be seriously injured, but he will soon stand up again. His trident can absorb the lives of others to help him recover!

Soon, video footage of this war appeared on the desks of leaders of various countries.

Now everyone can't sit still.

On the one hand, it's because the actions of the Little Overlord are too anti-human. They have caused too many casualties while advancing. These guys are completely crazy. Whether they are unarmed or not, they are no exception in their eyes!

Kill!

This has once again made many countries that originally supported the Little Overlord undergo moral judgment.

In the past, although the little bully was shameless, he would at least cover it up.

But what about this time?

They were basically brazen and merciless!

This made those countries that supported the little bully dumbfounded. You don't even bother to pretend?

Another point is the power of the artifact!

Who wouldn't be jealous of this thing?

Kai got the artifact of Asgard that year, and then he became famous today.

After all, Kai never said where his power came from. After all, according to the investigation of various forces, Kai was an ordinary soldier before, and later became a policeman. Whether before or when he started to be a policeman, he had no special abilities.

But after getting the artifact of Asgard, he suddenly became the strongest superhero.

How can this not make others mistakenly think that it was all because of the artifact?

Of course, if they look more carefully, they will find that Thor is not Kai's opponent. Doesn't Asgard leave the best things for its own people, but give the best things to outsiders?

Of course, they also have some opinions on this.

That is, Kai's artifact is Odin's artifact, and Odin is naturally stronger than Thor.

There is nothing wrong with this.

In short, when they see that anyone on the side of the little bully can kill people with the artifact, how can they not be tempted?

To be honest, they have long envied the United States for having people like Kai.

Apart from other things, Kai can solve many troubles that the government cannot solve.

What's more, when the artifact falls into their hands, they can naturally control it. This is equivalent to holding the power in their own hands. Although the United States has Kai, Kai does not obey the government. In many cases, the relationship between the two sides is equal, and everything must be discussed.

Do you think the Americans are happy to see this situation?

Of course not.

No matter what kind of power it is, as long as it is not in their own hands, it is meaningless and dangerous. Indeed, Kai is getting along very well with the US government now, and he is not willing to participate in many things, but what about in the future?

Who can guarantee that Kai will never change.

For example, one day, Kai suddenly feels that this so-called democratic government is too rubbish, and he wants to be a dictator!

Who will stop him?

Who can stop him?

Aren’t the Americans afraid?

I'm absolutely afraid. The politicians in the White House are definitely trying every possible way to restrict Kai. But for a while, they have no other choice, so they can only survive...

But now the Little Overlord has this magical weapon... They feel that they can't deal with Kai, but they still have no problem dealing with the Little Overlord.

Don't take the bully too seriously.

Others don’t understand, those national leaders don’t understand?

As long as the method is appropriate, the little bully will have to bow his head.

Then soon, the pressure from various countries came to the little overlord.

In those countries in the West, if you want to say that they have any integrity, you really think too highly of them. They have done so many rogue things over the years.

To use an analogy.

Carbon tax!

The people who invented this thing are absolutely geniuses. They demanded that carbon emissions taxes be levied on the world and even set carbon emission standards.

For example, how much carbon emissions can your country produce in a year? If it exceeds, then give money.

Who should I give the money to?

For those countries that protect the environment and have no industry.

So who are these countries?

Of course, it is those developed countries that have carried out industrial adjustments and transferred all their industries to developing countries.

Whose tax is collected?

Of course it is those various industrialized developing countries!

What the hell... Environmental pollution is of course caused by industry, but who was the first to start destroying the environment and engaging in industrialization?

It’s these Western developed countries!

As a result, they were the ones collecting the taxes, but the late-developing countries were the ones paying the taxes... In other words, they destroyed the environment the most, but they did not need to be responsible for it, while other countries that wanted to develop had to spend free money. Spend your money to 'compensate' them!

What is the most important thing. They also set a cap for each country on how much carbon emissions you can produce in a year.

This is a literal restriction for all developing countries.

It’s not that you can’t develop, it’s that you can only develop within the scope they set, not beyond.

In other words, these developing countries will always be their leeks. I can only cut them off, and you are not allowed to escape my control.

This is purely about treating people as fools. The most shameless thing is that these people are still making comments in many countries to intimidate those who are sober.

For example, a very famous reporter and host in our country.

This guy was on the show, gnashing his teeth at a sober scholar and wishing he could bite the scholar with opposing opinions to death!

As if sober people shouldn’t exist!

This is the moral character of these countries.

So they can do anything!

One second he was still supporting the little overlord, and he didn't care about the life or death of the locals. Even though he said he was compassionate, he still had no shortage of help at hand.

But the next second, they turned into messengers of justice and began to attack the aid recipients...

They say both the pros and cons of co-authorship.

Faced with such pressure, the bully just pretended to be dead and didn't respond at all.

What kind of massacre, what kind of artifact, I don’t know, it doesn’t exist, it’s all fake!

Anyway, just one sentence, don’t look for me!

Now those scoundrels are not happy!
