Chapter 1802 Gap (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!!! Please Subscribe!!! Please Recommend!!!)

Just when the whole world was surprised that one's personal ability could really change the world, the Little Overlord also panicked.

Their contact with all F35 fighters, no calls were answered!

The appearance of Apocalypse caught everyone off guard. In fact, the Overlord had no response plan at all... Like all countries, they never thought that the appearance of one person could change the battlefield situation. This was ridiculous.

But now that the facts are before them, what should they do?

The answer is... I don't know!

"We should activate the principle of reciprocity! Send extraordinary forces to respond!"

"Are you confused? Where did we get our extraordinary power? Our only extraordinary power was lost by us?!"

"Impossible! We are a nation favored by God. How can we not have the strength to deal with it? We can't even compare to Egypt?!" A senior executive shouted in a somewhat defensive tone.

As I said before, the Little Overlord didn't know whether it was lucky or unlucky, but there were no mutants here... In the past, the Little Overlord was quite happy about this. After all, mutants are never very peaceful. Neither Da Mao nor the United States actually like mutants very much.

I never thought these people were a good thing, but always thought they were a destabilizing factor.

For this reason, the Little Overlord has always been very proud, thinking that they are a nation favored by God, so they will not have heresies that deviate from God's teachings. But when the world changes, they find out... they are already happy.

Since the emergence of superheroes, the treatment of mutants has changed day by day. It is even conceivable that when Apocalypse's feats spread more widely, countries' attitudes towards mutants will be better!

In fact, since the last war between Egypt and Overlord, the losses caused to Overlord by mutants after joining the army became known, and the whole world has quietly increased the treatment of mutants again!

After all, reality has proven that if mutants are used properly, they are indeed a force that cannot be underestimated!

Their military usefulness has been proven!

A fighter jet costs tens of millions of dollars, and a Tucker is also worth several million dollars!

How much does a mutant cost?

Take the current United States as an example. Some time ago, subsidies and benefits for mutants increased again, reaching about 72,000 a year! Even useless mutants can live very comfortably. You must know that the annual income threshold for middle-class families in the United States in these days is only about 50,000 to 60,000 (this threshold varies greatly in different regions), but what about others? As long as you are a mutant, you can get 72,000 even if you do nothing! And you don’t have to pay taxes! Of course, you don’t have to pay taxes on government subsidies and benefits, which is much better than for middle-class families!

The military recruits mutant warriors, and the annual salary is very high, about 260,000.

It’s very high, isn’t it?

But reality has proven that the destructive power of a fighter jet or a Tucker on the battlefield is not even as good as a mutant!

For the army, this is a huge profit!

The key is that for spending such a small amount of money, not only did you get a powerful force of warriors, but you also eliminated hidden social dangers.

Is there any business more profitable than this?

Even now there are some voices in Congress, wondering why the previous government didn’t do such a cost-effective thing? If you had done this before, how much easier it would be!

No one knows why.

This can only be attributed to changes in social climate.

In short, the little bully is embarrassed. In the past, he only cared about gloating about the misfortunes caused by mutants from other countries, but now he looks... so embarrassed.

Even if they want to recruit people, no one will do it for them.

This is also due to the social atmosphere of the little bullies, who are more intolerant of aliens than other countries!

So even if there are mutants born in Overlord, they will leave here. After all, surviving here is as difficult as hell for mutants. Even if someone does survive here, they will be full of negative emotions towards the Little Overlord!

Counting on Bully to recruit mutants... This is too difficult, even Neon has a chance than them!

"Maybe we can turn to the United States for help! Let them send superheroes! Don't forget, we are the only free country here! They should protect us! This is their responsibility!" At this time, someone repeated the old tune again.

"That's right! The emergence of the Apocalypse now is the biggest threat to Vanzi! We must ensure that the only light of Vanzi in this land continues to shine and point the way for other people who are suffering from tyranny! We must be protected ! Those superheroes have a duty to protect us!”

This kind of talk is too simple for them to just say it. After all, they have been doing this for decades and have formed a path dependence.

"Okay!!! It's enough to deceive yourselves with this kind of talk! If you really say it, do you think others will really listen? If the United States can send people, why is it now?!!"

There are sane people reminding them, stop dreaming, this was not a few years ago!

"Fake! This damn new era! Those freaks shouldn't exist at all!!!"

Someone passed the responsibility to the times.

"Okay! The question we should discuss now is, where are those fighter jets? Why are you back to the starting point? The United States will not support us! Our compatriots in the United States are already locked in a battle with Angsa Capital. Extricate yourself! They have no time to support us! So wake up and stop thinking!

The Little Overlord's diplomatic dilemma has been going on for two years. Unfortunately, there are still people who lived in the past and have no understanding of their current situation... This makes many sober people helpless.

It can only be said that they have lived so comfortably for decades, so comfortable that they take it for granted, as if the little bully is born with such power... In fact, everything is because of interests. Their interests ensure that they are protected by the United States and Western countries, and their interests ensure that they can do whatever they want without facing any criticism!

But the problem is that the interests have changed now.

The United States is no longer the world's hegemon, they now prioritize their own interests!

We are no longer sure about the international situation.

The most obvious example is that their internal fighting has intensified. Angsa and Xiaobawang Capital have become famous in the country. For what reason?

Isn’t it because they can no longer harvest the whole world to satisfy their own interests, and can only devour their own accomplices to satisfy their dwindling profits!

So the little bully has lost its role in their eyes, and they can even sell the little bully to make profits for themselves!

"Fighter aircraft? That's a matter for the military. We are the government? Do we still need to tell those soldiers how to fight the war? Are you kidding me?"

A senior executive looked at the person who raised this question in surprise.

It is natural for the government to direct guns. But how to fight a war if the government directs the army?

No kidding!

These are two fucking concepts.

The government directs the army, which means that the government decides whether the army should fight or not, and what results need to be achieved after the war begins.

As for the rest, that is a matter for the army commander.

Does a group of politicians really know how to fight a war?

For example, everyone around the world knows that the greatest president of the United States is Roosevelt. He led the United States to win World War II, but if you ask Roosevelt to command the army, how should they march and prepare? Believe it or not, not even a single soldier would listen to his orders.

After all, who would believe that a polio patient could fight a war?

Does he know what the battlefield looks like?

Does he know what war is about?

So everyone knew Roosevelt was a great president, but absolutely no one believed he was a good commander.

"It's not about fighter jets..." The person who asked this question just felt tired... Is this really a problem about fighter jets? "I'm talking about the apocalypse! What should we do?!!"

Then there was silence.

Because they really have no choice.

"We'd better seek help from the United States!"

Okay, the topic has come back again.

…

"You said... if we face an enemy like Tianqi, will we have any way to deal with it?"

In the white house, Benjamin is asking the same question.

Benjamin was originally going to attend a dinner today, but he was quickly pulled back by his chief of staff and the dinner was cancelled.

After seeing the intelligence, Benjamin forgot about the trouble of not being able to go to the dinner... Don't think that the president just likes to work, please! He finally made an appointment with his wife and children, and they will watch the video together after dinner tonight!

But now it seems that is no longer possible.

Although no one likes to work, since he is the president, there are some things he must make choices!

"Well...we have Kai! We have superheroes!" Someone quickly said this answer.

But he was quickly despised by the president, chief of staff, and secretary of defense.

In fact, what Benjamin was talking about was not the apocalypse at all, but there were some things that didn’t need to be said too explicitly.

In fact, what Benjamin wants to say is exactly those superheroes...and Kai!

It's true that Benjamin and Kay have a good relationship. But it doesn't mean that Benjamin believes in Kay wholeheartedly...Benjieming is not a high school girl. If she were that simple, she wouldn't be the president. For a politician, trusting one person wholeheartedly...that is definitely the biggest insult!

In fact, at the national level, it is also a stupid decision to really place hope on individuals!

Benjamin doesn't believe Kai.

It depends on how you say it.

Personally, Benjamin can certainly trust Kay.

But as a president, he cannot do this.

He must be responsible for this country.

Besides, who can guarantee that Kai will never change?

Benjamin himself can't guarantee that he will not change. Just like before, he has always said that the president of the United States is the most unfortunate position in the world and he no longer wants to be the president. But after a few days, he stopped saying this.

Look, even he himself is so fickle, let alone others.

He can't even control himself, let alone others.

To him, Kai... was untrustworthy, and even less so were the other superheroes.

The despised man reacted quickly and immediately lowered his head with a blush.

He is too simple... In this environment, this adjective is definitely a derogatory term.

"Nuclear bomb?" he tried to save.

But soon he was despised again.

Kai and those superheroes are all Americans, so where are the nuclear bombs going to be thrown?

On American soil?

Believe it or not, Benjamin really dared to do this. He didn't know what would happen to those superheroes. He himself will definitely become the first president of the United States to be declared treasonous.

"Maybe we should train and recruit more mutants?" Benjamin's best friend, the Minister of Defense, said: "It has been confirmed that those mutants live in the same society as us, they have the same values ​​as us, and they are worth winning over!"

The Minister of Defense a few years ago would never have said such a thing.

The Ministry of Defense had troubled mutants before, and the military even used mutants for human experiments.

But as the two came into contact more and more, the Minister of Defense's mentality changed.

Those mutants may be a little weird, but they are not living in another dimension. They live in the United States, just like ordinary people.

In this case, why can't they serve the country?

"Yes... but not enough!"

Benjamin thought it was okay, but to deal with people like Kai and Apocalypse, those mutants were not enough.

He didn't really want to go to war with Kai, but... he had to have the confidence to deal with Kai!

Just like nuclear weapons, I can not use them, but I must have them!

The chief of staff thought for a moment, then said, "Mr. President, do you remember the Rainbow Project?"

"Rainbow?"

Benjamin recalled for a long time before he remembered, "Is it the project that was strictly controlled by Kai and Tony?"

Yes, what Benjamin said was the project to study Captain Marvel's body.

"Yes, I think you must still remember Captain Marvel's ability. Maybe we..."

"Impossible... Kai is keeping a close eye on this project. In fact, I support it. After all... we have had many problems in this regard before."

After Kai got Captain Marvel's body, the US government wanted to take it back as soon as possible. And Kai's first feeling was that it was unreliable... After all, the US government has a bad record in this regard.

That's how Hulk came about.

Including many things before, it's similar. For example, the Insight Project, the Pegasus Project, the Cosmic Cube Project, etc.

They are all this kind of unrestricted mess, and finally made a mess.

So although Benjamin was very dissatisfied with private control of the government, he also supported it.

After all... he didn't want to make such a thing happen during his tenure.

He has enough blame. He didn't know a lot of things, and when they were exposed, he was the one who got scolded the most.

He didn't want to have this experience again.

"We can strengthen control, but not under the control of Tony and Kai!" The chief of staff said seriously.

Benjamin immediately understood what he meant.

They could do research secretly and hide it from Tony and Kai. As long as they kept a close eye on it, there would be no problem.

Benjamin thought for a long time before finally asking, "Are you sure?"

Others were very happy recruiting mutants.

Only they...
