Hell's Kitchen has never been a good place. →People there are very poor, but poverty is never a problem. The most frightening thing is that people are poor and unwilling to work hard! This is the crux of the problem. Just like Kai's motherland, how poor was the motherland back then. There is a saying that goes, "A dog does not dislike a poor home, and a son does not dislike an ugly mother." But in those years, I don't know how many people would rather go abroad to wash dishes than stay in the country. In those years, I don't know how many people would do anything dirty for the opportunity to go abroad.
But fortunately, the vast majority of the people in the motherland have ambition and backbone!
Poverty is not terrible, what is terrible is the determination to change. So, the motherland took off directly, no matter how those foreigners slandered us or obstructed us, the motherland still rose!
But Hell's Kitchen is not like this, they don't believe this, in their eyes, there is no option of working hard to make money. You have to know that these people grew up in this environment, and it is really difficult to correct it. Since they were born, most people don’t know who their parents are (most don’t know their fathers). Even if they have parents (or a single parent), the family environment is not much better. The family environment here does not refer to the family income, but the family atmosphere. Although we can’t generalize, most people’s parents don’t really care about their children. Waiting to go to school, the school in Hell’s Kitchen... Heh, unless it’s a private school, otherwise... I have to say that happy education has screwed American children.
Happy education... happiness is over. In recent years, it’s even more ridiculous, even sports competitions can’t be determined. Many American school sports events have now cancelled the title and medals of the champion, and anyone who participates can get a medal.
For example, the recent elementary school baseball league has cancelled the championship medal and prizes, and changed to give prizes to each team, and the ranking is not determined...

What is the meaning of this league? It is said that many education experts are planning to promote this practice to high school leagues... They dare not do it in colleges, because college leagues are very profitable, such as the famous NCAA. NCAA players do not receive salaries and cannot participate in any commercial activities. All the money is earned by the NCAA league, which is billions of profits a year!
If those education experts dare to promote this system to college leagues, they will be criticized by various interest groups in college leagues.
I have said so much, just to say, what competitiveness do children who grow up under this kind of education have?
Real society is not a school, where the weak can still be praised.
In short, these children have learned nothing except happiness.
In addition to the education problem, the more serious problem is the problem of living environment. Hell's Kitchen is a broken place, with gangs rampant, and good people can't survive. Only by joining the gang can you have food to eat and not be bullied.
And in the eyes of many children, those little hooligans who drag their crotches to the ground all day long, revealing their underwear and with guns in their waists, and bully everywhere are very cool.
Reality plus worship, many children join gangs right after school, of course, more children are born in gangs, because their parents or brothers are gang members.
It is really rare to be untainted by the mud.
These children have never thought about living a nine-to-five life like ordinary workers since they were sensible. What they want is to be unbridled! They all think they can stand out in the gangs, and everyone thinks they are special.
In short, from top to bottom in this place, everyone would rather live a life of poverty at three o'clock and rich at four o'clock, with today but no tomorrow.
Work?
In the eyes of those people, working stupidly to make money is the most boring and the lowest lifestyle. →
So Kai is really troubled... It's too difficult.
Fighting with gangsters is not bad at all for Kai, that's his old business. But development... It's not his major. Kai has never worked in the investment promotion office, as for the leadership position... Let alone, a deputy captain can't be considered a leader.
He can fight crime, and he can also brainwash people and make those gangsters become obedient?
...
After getting the news, Kai immediately found George, hoping to find some solutions from this partner.
But unfortunately, George didn't understand. He has been in the police force, and he can fight criminals, but construction... is a bit difficult for him.
"Is Stark Group really going to invest in Hell's Kitchen?" George is more concerned about this. In his opinion, whoever should do it should do it. They are police officers, and maintaining law and order and fighting crime are their profession, but surveillance is the city government's business!
"Well, I talked to Pepper, and Stark Group is very happy about this. After all, the Stark family is from New York. There is nothing wrong with giving back to your hometown." If Kai knew George's mentality, he would definitely agree. Yes, why should he, a policeman, worry about this?
"That's great!" George was very happy.
On the one hand, it is because Hell's Kitchen has an opportunity to change, and on the other hand, as long as the investment is real, their 15th Precinct will also benefit greatly.
In order to provide supporting facilities for the high-tech development zone, should the facilities of the police station also be updated? In order to better serve investors, should the treatment of the police be improved? As an investor, shouldn't Stark Group donate more money to the police department?
In short, the benefits are huge!
"Don't spread rumors. The formal negotiations haven't started yet. If everyone knows about it, who knows what will happen!"
Hell's Kitchen is a really evil place. There is nothing that those gangsters dare not do. Believe it or not, once the news spreads, those gangsters will dare to turn into real estate developers, buy land everywhere, and then collectively raise the low price to fleece the Stark Group. They don't care whether this investment will fail or not. Even failing this investment will also be beneficial to them.
"I know, how can I say such a thing everywhere?" George naturally knows the importance.
After chatting for a few more sentences, George thought of someone who might be able to give some advice.
"Why don't you ask Fergie? That guy knows everyone here, and their law firm is now very famous in Hell's Kitchen. Many people have received their help. Maybe he can give some suggestions."
Fergie's popularity is indeed very good. No one in the entire Hell's Kitchen really hates him. In comparison, Matt seemed much more aloof. Every time this guy helped, he contributed the most, but he was not as friendly as Fergie, which led to his defeat in popularity.
"Really..." Kai nodded and planned to ask Fergie after get off work.
...
Just when Kai was thinking about eating carrots and worrying about it, in the universe, in the mysterious space on the other side of the earth.
In the void there, there was an extremely magnificent continent floating.
It is called Asgard!
It is also called the God's Domain!
King Odin is the ruler here. He has ruled here for thousands of years. As the king of the Asgardians, Odin has a very long life, so long that even the Asgardians feel surprised. Of course, more people feel relieved because Odin is an excellent king. He led Asgard to conquer the Nine Realms and brought long-term peace and prosperity to Asgard. Many people think that Odin will continue to rule.
But Odin knows that everything has its end, including the universe. He is naturally no exception.
Odin could feel his vitality fading, he was already very old.
So he decided to choose an heir for himself.
In fact, there was no need to choose, he only had two sons. One was Thor, the god of thunder, who was as brave and good at fighting as he was when he was young. This was his biological son, and the other was Loki, an adopted son, who was very smart... but he obviously didn't use this intelligence in the right way.
Odin did not admit that he chose his heir based on bloodline, but he saw the darkness hidden in Loki's heart.
Just when he was sure of his heir, Loki played tricks again. He actually secretly put in a few frost giants to disrupt Tony's heir ceremony.
Odin saw through this, but he did not make it public.
Family affection is one aspect, Odin once put his career and his dreams first, but ignored family affection, and as a result, he had to swallow the consequences of his own creation. From then on, Odin cared about family affection.
At the same time, he also wanted to see what his chosen heir would do.
He knew Thor had shortcomings, such as impulsiveness, lack of intelligence, courage without strategy, and sometimes being too naive.
But that was nothing, Odin felt that it was a process that young people had to go through, who hadn't been young before?
Unfortunately, Odin was disappointed.
Thor hadn't made any progress at all, he was still like a child who hadn't grown up!
He was planning to go to the kingdom of the frost giants, Jotunheim, with a few people to find trouble with the frost giants!
Odin couldn't imagine what Thor thought of the frost giants, the vulnerable clowns?
If that was the case, then what was the matter with him, the God King Odin, who had defeated the frost giants with great effort?
What was worse was that Thor almost reignited the war because of his arrogant and reckless behavior! Asgard couldn't go to war with the frost giants again because of such a ridiculous incident, that was not what a king should do!
So Odin was very disappointed.
"Your old tricks don't work anymore, we are crumbling..." The young Asgardian prince shouted to his father while holding his hammer.
"You are a vain, greedy, cruel child!" Odin was old and weak, and he was about to fall asleep. But even so, he still interrupted his son with full momentum and roared.
"Then you are a stupid old thing!" Thor seemed to be very helpless. Not only did he not repent at all, but he shouted at his father shamelessly. He behaved like a spoiled child, relying on his parents' love for him, and repeatedly provoked his father's bottom line.
Generally, if this kind of naughty child was born when Kai was a child, he would definitely get a beating with a belt to let him know what family status is!
Odin was silent, and after a moment his voice rang out again in the palace: "... You disobeyed the king's order and brought war and destruction to the people of the peaceful country... I will expel you in the name of my father and ancestors!"
Finally, Odin made up his mind to follow the example of Chinese parents. The old man waved his hand, and the power of Thor on Thor began to fade rapidly. His armor, cloak and Thor's hammer, the symbol of Thor, all left him, and he flew into a rainbow vortex involuntarily. Then Odin casually scooped up Thor's hammer and put it to his mouth, and whispered: "Whoever holds this hammer and deserves it will have the power of God!"
As he said, he threw the hammer out with force.
The hammer instantly penetrated the colorful passage and fell rapidly to somewhere in the universe.
Looking at the closed rainbow bridge, Odin fell into silence.
Although disappointed, Odin still planned to give his son a chance.
He sealed Thor's hammer, Mjolnir, and exiled it and Thor to the atrium, Midgard.
Only when Thor really grows up can he pick up Thor's hammer again!
Odin sincerely hopes that his son can grow up, after all, he doesn't know how long he can last.
On the other side, Loki, who saw his father Odin become weak because of the approaching sleep time, also had his own plans in his heart.
But when they didn't know, when Odin opened the rainbow bridge to the atrium, a person immediately noticed the power of the rainbow bridge!
...
Kai was having a barbecue on the rooftop of his house with Alfu and Merlin.
Recently, both New York City and Hell's Kitchen have been calm, and Kai has time to relax a little.
Just as he picked up a chicken wing and was about to eat it, a meteor flashed across the sky.
Kai immediately felt something, and he looked up at the horizon.
"Asgard..." Kai murmured.
No mistake, that was the power of Asgard. So familiar!
"Master?" Ah Fu felt Kai's strangeness and looked over immediately.
"I'll go out for a while." After saying that, Kai shook his body and a clone appeared. But the original body turned into a golden powder and disappeared in the air.
Ah Fu and Merlin had both been baptized by the Holy Grail, and they could easily feel that Kai had just opened his divine form!
The two looked at each other and felt bad at the same time.
Because generally speaking, there are very few events in this world that require Kai to become a god!
But once it appears, it must be a catastrophic disaster!
For example, the Battle of Los Angeles!
"It seems... we need to make some preparations." Ah Fu said to Merlin.
Merlin nodded, silently knocked off the kebab in his hand, and then immediately went downstairs to the underground laboratory.
…
Antica Puente, New Mexico. This town is located on the northwest edge of New Mexico, and Arizona is two hundred miles to the west. Antica Puente, which is over 6,000 meters above sea level, has only more than 2,000 permanent residents. The entire city is square, and the buildings are concentrated in an area within a kilometer. There are no high-rise buildings or skyscrapers. Most of the buildings are two- or three-story small buildings and bungalows. The tallest building in the town is just a four-story hospital building, surrounded by desert plateaus.
Like many small towns in the United States, it is boring here. You can't expect this small place with extremely sparse population to have any entertainment venues. I guess the bar is the only public leisure place in the town.
So unlike big cities, after 10 o'clock in the evening, there are not many people hanging around in the whole town, and everyone goes home.
Originally, such a night would be spent quietly like before.
But the falling star in the sky made the whole town come alive.
Around 11:25 pm, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the heavy pressure kept rolling. In the dark clouds, it was as if a claw had torn a hole, and colorful light shone from it, illuminating the earth clearly, as if the light of the aurora shone through the gap in the dark clouds, which was very dazzling.
Then a meteor quickly hit the earth!
Such a strong light and explosion even made the whole town feel a clear tremor.
At first, the people in the town thought it was an earthquake and were really panicked for a while. But soon, people found that it was not an earthquake, so there were those bold people who wanted to find the source.
And they found it soon, because the place where the explosion occurred was not far from the town, about three kilometers away, right on the edge of the intercontinental highway.
When people rushed over, a big pit appeared there. The big pit was burned red by the high temperature, and even the ground began to melt. The billowing smoke and high temperature prevented everyone from getting close. Many people speculated that it might be a meteor!
Just as people were speculating, a streak of fire flashed across the sky again!
It looked like a meteor!
The meteor came again!
People hurried to avoid it.
But their speed was not comparable to that of a meteor. In the blink of an eye, the fire came.
Everyone was ready to wait for death, but soon found that something seemed to be wrong!
The fire fell into the crater!
The huge impact caused a strong wind to blow around. The strong wind blew away the flames and smoke, and also blew the onlookers all over the place. Some of the lighter ones were blown away by the strong wind!
When people opened their eyes, they found a huge golden figure standing in the crater.
"God, is your messenger here?"
Some believers saw the figure standing at the bottom of the pit clearly, and immediately drew a cross on their chests and chanted the name of God devoutly.
It was a tall and glorious figure, wearing golden armor. The armor was so gorgeous and brilliant that no one believed it was created by humans. The light and patterns on it were so magnificent and mysterious. On his head was a lion-head helmet. On top of the helmet, a long bright red cherry blossom fluttered in the cyclone like a flag. In the void above the helmet, a majestic and magnificent crown in the shape of a ring was suspended on his head.
And the six pairs of flame wings behind him made people want to worship him!
So sacred, like a god descending from heaven.
The figure turned his head and looked around, and no one dared to look directly at the red gemstone eyes on the mask!
Fortunately, the golden giant did not move, and turned his head to look at the hammer under his feet?
