The Knight in the Big World of American TV Series

Chapter 2051

Ordinary people can’t even look directly at the demons, let alone fight against them!

Even letting these ordinary people come into contact with the demons is a huge hidden danger. Apart from anything else, ordinary people simply can’t resist the temptation of the demons… Modern society is too impetuous. Believe it or not, those demons only need to pay a little so-called ‘price’ to seduce a large group of people to become cultists… Even those cultists who are seduced don’t think there is anything wrong with it, and even think it’s cool…

It’s true.

There are still many people who believe in Satan in modern society!

Satan is a completely created evil idol, but there are still a lot of people who believe in it.

There is really nothing to say about many young people nowadays… They are really like brainless people. They want to try everything and even think it’s cool.

The most typical example is drug abuse… I believe that basically everyone who is not illiterate knows that drug abuse is harmful, but why are more and more young people taking drugs? The most fundamental reason is that they think this is a cool activity and they feel they can stop at any time. Teenagers are in a critical period of growth, with poor self-control and strong curiosity. They have a strong desire to try new things. Many young people take drugs just to release pressure and show their personality, without considering the harm that drugs will cause to themselves and their families.

The pollution of those demons is much more serious than drugs.

I believe that many people will be happy to become the minions of the demons in exchange for what they want... Let alone, as long as the demons offer the temptation of immortality, the group of grandfathers on Capitol Hill will most likely fall for it... Never underestimate the greed of human nature. I believe that many old men are willing to sell the lives of countless people to extend their lives.

So from the beginning, Ancient One did not intend to rely on the US government to fight against the demons. That was unrealistic and had great hidden dangers.

But for some slightly smaller troubles, Kamar-Taj can be subcontracted. They need to draw more manpower to rebuild two nodes, and at the same time protect the last node... Hong Kong Temple!

The only thing that is gratifying is that there is no need to worry too much about the safety of the Hong Kong Temple for a while.

Because the SHIELD will help.

Among the three major temples, only the Hong Kong Temple is the most special one.

Because only this temple is known to the outside world.

There is no way, the SHIELD is different from the US government.

The SHIELD has existed for more than two thousand years. This is due to the special environment of Dongda. As early as the Han Dynasty more than two thousand years ago, the court of Dongda noticed the existence of extraordinary powers, and then a strange man named Zhang Heng established the SHIELD through the court at that time.

The SHIELD has been controlling the extraordinary power of Dongda for two thousand years. Its ruling power is not comparable to that of SHIELD, an organization that has only been established for a few decades. Even the United States has only existed for more than two hundred years.

Not even one-tenth of others.

In short, what they have to do now is to restore the node as soon as possible and resist the invasion of the dimensional demon god at the same time.

Although it is difficult, they have to do it.

So they will choose to give up some unimportant things.

Carter obviously heard some unspoken crisis in Gu Yi's words. As an old agent, she is not one of those little girls who knows nothing and will only leave her fate to others. She trusts herself more.

"Can you explain in detail the crisis you are facing? If this crisis threatens us, we are qualified and necessary to know the specific situation."

Gu Yi shook his head: "It is best if you don't know the current crisis. In addition, your mission is also very important. Kamar-Taj is now seriously short of manpower, so we have to make decisions on many things, including giving up some people's lives. And what you have to do is to save them."

Gu Yi's arrogance made the three people very uncomfortable. At least in their eyes, Gu Yi is arrogant.

However, what Gu Yi said was actually the truth. It is much better not to understand some things than to understand them!

"Then at least we should know what we are facing?" Hill asked immediately.

"Demons or other strange things, anyway, they are not the enemies of this world." There is nothing that cannot be said.

Hill knows something that others don't know.

For example, Kamar-Taj has been protecting the Earth for 10,000 years... Of course, this statement was made by Kai, and Hill didn't quite believe it. After all, SHIELD knows all too well what dangers the Earth is in. They never knew that there was an organization like Kamar-Taj protecting them.

Either Kai is talking nonsense.

Or there really is a crisis that they don't know about.

The idea of ​​SHIELD and the US government is naturally to know clearly what these crises are... No one is willing to put their fate in the hands of others.

Especially this "other person", they don't understand it at all.

This is even more intolerable.

This is not arrogance, but more of a sense of crisis.

There is nothing wrong with this, but unfortunately, Kamar-Taj has its own reasons.

The two sides cannot reach a consensus on this.

"Okay, we have said what we should say. You can go." Gu Yi could actually say nothing, but out of pity for life, she decided to reveal some news to them, but more, she had no choice.

She is not a god, and Kamar-Taj is even less so.

All she can do is maintain the overall direction. As for the disasters that befell individuals, she can do nothing about it.

Before the three of them could say anything else, Gu Yi waved his hand and they returned to the streets where the disaster relief was being provided. Everything seems to be like a dream, and it even makes people feel that everything was just their hallucination.

At the same time, the mage who was in front of everyone just now also disappeared.

Only ruins were left.

"What should we do now?" The black envoy looked at the other two people in confusion.

His job was to be a celebrity, but in fact he didn't say a few words to the public. He was pretending to be a celebrity, but people didn't accept his move.

Carter's expression was ugly. To be honest, Ms. Carter has spent 80% of her life in a high position. Ever since Steve disappeared while flying the plane, she has been known as the widow of Captain America, and even more so since then. It is no exaggeration to say that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been established and remains high and powerful to this day.

Usually, she hides information from others because she feels that it is better for people below not to know about some things.

Unexpectedly, she received the same treatment today.

The mages pulled them over, told them that the crisis was coming and that you should be prepared, and then sent them away without saying anything.

This feeling of being completely controlled by others... is really too bad.

Carter was uncomfortable with it.

"Of course, go back and be more vigilant and declare a state of emergency!"

Hill's mentality has become much more balanced. If it had been in the past, SHIELD would never be so angry. In the era of Nick Fury, not to mention Karma Taj, even a dog passing by SHIELD would be punished. The dog's hind legs were lifted to see if it was a male or a female, and then the dog was told to remember to report it when passing by the entrance of SHIELD.

When Nick Fury first learned about Karma Taj, his first reaction was how to bring this organization under supervision... Really, this nigger really thought so. However, others didn't like him at all, and there was nothing he could do about it.

But now SHIELD... A phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken. This sentence is simply dead.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s funding and authority have been severely cut, and even Hill doesn't have the heart to cause trouble.

"No! It's impossible for the White House to declare a state of emergency just because of a random word from a woman who doesn't know the details!"

The black envoy didn't know that he was angry because he had just been treated like that. In order to highlight that he was not just freeloaders, he was extremely emotional.

Although Carter was also angry, he did not let his personal emotions affect his decision.

"I think it's necessary."

"No! The White House will not accept it. We must find out what happened before we can report it to the White House!"

It turns out the roots are here.

This black uncle, to put it bluntly, is actually for his own future.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with that.

The White House appointed him as a special envoy, so he naturally had to play his role.

The result?

He only had a few lines from beginning to end, but they had no effect at all. If he reports truthfully, what is his role?

How can you achieve meritorious service, and how can you be promoted?

"I think we can go to the hospital. Mr. Strange's surgery should be over. I think we can get enough information from him."

This approach is great, but there's just one problem.

No one knows what kind of condition Strange is in. Was the operation successful? After success, when will he wake up, and what will he say when he wakes up.

Too much uncertainty.

But time waits for no one!

For many things, timeliness is what matters.

So the sooner the better.

Fortunately, neither Hill nor Carter had any interest in listening to a special envoy.

White House envoy, sounds like a very powerful person.

But in fact, this kind of thing is actually useless. To put it bluntly, it is just a temporary title and has no real power.

This guy was talking nonsense in front of them, but he was actually using chicken feathers as arrows. An ordinary person would have been frightened by him, but for Carter and Hill, this was far from it.

"How to make a decision is something that the owner of the White House should consider, not you. I will report directly to the President."

After Carter finished speaking, he turned and left.

So does Hill.

With their status, they would not take a so-called special envoy seriously. If this black uncle himself is a government boss or a political boss. Then having the title of special envoy would be of some use. But he is just a senior employee of the White House... and belongs to the president's personal team, so it is of no use.

So he could only watch the two women leave without any solution.

His practice of using chicken feathers as arrows is essentially a trick of pretending to be a tiger. In fact, it's like office fights. If others are intimidated, then he has room to perform, but if others don't dump him, then he has no chance.

Because essentially he has no authority in the government and cannot command anyone!

As for the state of emergency he was talking about... it was just to fool ordinary people. In fact... the state of emergency is not a strange thing in the United States at all.

To be honest, it is common for the United States to enter a state of emergency. There is nothing to be surprised about. Since the then-US President Ford signed the National Emergencies Act in 1976, successive US presidents have declared a total of 72 national emergencies. Among them, 30 have expired, and 42 remain valid, and are extended by the incumbent president every year. Most national emergencies are mainly aimed at external hostile forces, such as responding to the proliferation of biological and chemical weapons and terrorist attacks. Measures include economic sanctions such as freezing assets and export controls.

In addition to the state of emergency issued by the federal government, some local governments in the United States have also recently declared a state of emergency.

The 1976 National Emergencies Act clearly stipulates that after the president declares a state of emergency, he has at least 136 emergency powers, involving production mode regulation, sending troops abroad, domestic martial law, and regulation of corporate operations. Although the law was passed by Congress and stipulates the checks and balances of Congress, it generally expands the president's executive power. The impact of the law on American social life is generally positive, helping to quickly carry out rescue and disaster relief, slow the spread of disasters, maintain social security, and restore social order.

This thing sounds very serious. But in fact, basically no one takes it seriously.

It can only increase the power of the president.

So in fact, the black uncle's special envoy wants to use alarmist rhetoric to increase his authority and gain political achievements for himself.

It's just that others don't fall for it.

Although Carter and Hill don't seem to care much, they actually take this matter very seriously.

Even the mysterious leader of Kamar-Taj has personally warned them, which can only mean that there will definitely be a great crisis next.

So they don't have time to talk to the politician who only wants to benefit himself. They have more important things to do.

"Can you contact Kai?"

Carter asked Hill.

Because of a little conflict between Carter and Tony, the Shadow Bureau didn't have much contact with Kai. On the contrary, after being severely hit many times, SHIELD didn't have many problems with Kai.

"I've already contacted Tony, he'll find a way to contact Kai."

S.H.I.E.L.D. and Tony have a grudge, but like Kai, after S.H.I.E.L.D. withered, Tony didn't care much about the previous grudges. After all, the main conflict was taken over by Carter and Steve Rogers...

"That's good, I'll be busy next."

Carter nodded, got in the car and left.

She was over a hundred years old, and had no relationship with Hill, who was in his thirties. When Hill joined S.H.I.E.L.D., Carter had already retired.
