Kai and Tony did not participate in the subsequent events in Tahiti. Tony, in particular, felt particularly uncomfortable and did not want to stay in Tahiti at all. In addition to the fact that he felt that his contribution was insufficient and his strength was weak because of this operation, Carter's presence was also an important factor.

On the plane, Tony pretended to ask Steve what he had said to Kai.

"He wants me to persuade you." Kai said casually while sitting in Tony's luxury plane, holding a cigar and lying on a high-end massage chair.

"Persuade me... hum!" Tony felt that his father was blind to be friends with Steve. This kind of person is simply, to put it bluntly, he is self-centered. He feels that Steve is over-praised and really feels that he is fair and just. So now Tony is really annoyed with Steve.

"Actually, I can understand it." Kai didn't think there was anything wrong with it. We are all human beings. Who can really be selfless? From Steve's point of view, if he doesn't protect his friends, is he destroying his relatives for the sake of justice?

"Understand?" Tony looked at Kai with his eyes slanted. Tony really doesn't have many friends in his life. He thinks there are only three of them, one is Rod, one is Happy, and the other is Kai. If Kai also agrees with Steve, he feels that he has failed.

"After all, Barnes is his friend! The reason he said that is just to find a suitable reason for his behavior. There is nothing wrong with it." Kai pretended not to see Tony's little arrogance.

"Humph!" Tony may understand, but understanding does not mean he will accept it, and he even got more angry. "My father and he are also friends!"

Kai shrugged.

"So, it's useless to reason about this kind of thing. It's better for everyone to talk about their positions." Kai really thinks so. In the final analysis, this kind of thing is still about who has a better relationship. In Steve's eyes, Barnes is more important than Tony's father. In Tony's eyes, Barnes is a scumbag, not even as good as his father's leg hair. It's that simple, everything else is nonsense. There is no need to wrap things up so troublesomely.

Tony didn't continue this topic, but turned the topic to today's gains.

Tony has set his sights on the metal construct summoned by the witch.

He had a brief exchange with Hannibal before, and he came to a conclusion, that is, once the witch completes the energy reaction of the mechanical wizard tower, its energy supply will accelerate like a nuclear fission reaction, until the witch's "mana" as the raw material is consumed, it will stop.

It may be impossible to resist the nuclear weapons of the earth, but the problem is that the thing is not a dead thing that will not move. The witch can hide underground for dozens of kilometers at will, and she can come and go without a trace, and she is not afraid of being hunted down. At that time, the initiative will fall completely into her hands, and no one can do anything to her.

But it must be said that the witch is a genius in a sense, and she has created a combination of machinery and magic by herself. This gave Tony a very good demonstration. Although he has obtained a lot of Asgard technology, so far, he has not done a good job in integrating the earth and Asgard technology.

After all, Asgard's technology is naturally metaphysical, which is a bit conflicting with Tony's scientific brain, and Tony has not been able to change his thinking. Let Tony himself integrate science and magic, and many things have to start from scratch and try little by little. The mechanical wizard tower is a "product" that has been put into actual combat. Although its functions are very rough and most of them still belong to the category of magic, it does have some scientific elements. In the advancement of science, this "direction" is often needed.

The witch's mechanical wizard tower has such a meaning.

Tony has reached a deal with Hannibal. Hannibal will give some parts of the wizard tower to Tony for research, and Tony needs to give some of his research results to Hannibal. With the "finished product" contributed by the witch, he can fully expect to use technology to realize magic one day.

This is also in line with Tony's cognition. In Tony's view, magic is a kind of science that cannot be explained by scientific methods. He can't cast spells by himself, so letting other instruments do it for him is also an alternative. Tony is ambitious about this, especially after seeing the power of Asgard, Tony has a strong desire in this regard.

Perhaps because he became an orphan early, Tony is actually a guy who lacks a sense of security. He feels very uneasy about the current situation of the earth, so he especially hopes to strengthen the foundation of the earth. Even if he learned from Tony that the earth still has a guardian like Kamar-Taj, it can't make Tony feel at ease.

In the final analysis, he still believes in himself more.

...

As the sky gradually brightens, the Daxi City incident has become noisy in the media and on the Internet. The official certainly doesn't want this to happen. After all, this incident was caused by the Shadow Bureau's mistakes, allowing the witch to run away. And this pot has not been dealt with yet, and it is really thrown to the Shadow Bureau. Amanda's suicide squad, the Shadow Bureau didn't know at all. It was a project that Amanda lobbied the government to start a long time ago. Strictly speaking, the Shadow Bureau is also a victim. After all, Amanda was also thrown to the Shadow Bureau by the government.

The reason is to add sand to the Shadow Bureau and prevent the Shadow Bureau from becoming like S.H.I.E.L.D., which is out of control.

But I didn’t expect that, regardless of whether the Shadow Bureau was under control, Amanda’s Suicide Squad had already made a mess.

And the mess was quite big!

The only lucky thing is that few people know the inside story, otherwise the government would have been overwhelmed by public opinion. Tahiti has killed more than 50,000 people! This does not include the missing! The whole of Tahiti has become a ghost town. Even if the matter is over, the original people of Tahiti dare not return to that city. It is definitely the biggest tragedy in American history!

The US government has a headache just to resettle the refugees who escaped from Tahiti.

Moreover, the government has a huge hidden danger.

Batman and Hannibal!

Other superheroes such as the Flash and the three Chicago women have always been under Carter's nose. They have always focused on rescuing refugees and have not directly participated in the encirclement and suppression of witches, but Batman and Hannibal are the main force.

The key is that the behavior of these two people is completely uncontrollable by the government.

For example, the Flash only operates in Los Angeles, and the three women often stay in Chicago. Their behavior patterns are thoroughly understood by those government analysts. Although they cannot be controlled, they can also deal with them. But Batman and Hannibal are different. These two have no fixed territory at all, and they can be seen everywhere.

These two people are not good kids, and it is even more impossible for them to cooperate with the authorities.

The reason why they didn't make trouble for Amanda is probably because they knew that Amanda was doomed. Of course, this is also one of the reasons why no one in the government would protect Amanda. If Amanda really escaped punishment, the two people would be unhappy and explode directly...

The authorities would never dare to let the two find Amanda in person, otherwise this matter would kill a large number of related people.

Of course, Batman and Hannibal have been quiet so far and have not caused any trouble.

But for now, the authorities are already very troubled. According to the irregular statistics circulating on the Internet, there were not many people who were actually killed by monsters among the victims in Tahiti that night. After all, most people were captured and transformed into monsters.

The heads of the dead were killed by the military police and the Shadow Bureau because they were transformed into monsters...

There are videos on the Internet that prove that when the witches were defeated, the surface of the monsters turned into a pool of black rotten matter, and the people inside were fine but a little weak.

Obviously, those humanoid monsters have returned to normal because the witch who controlled them disappeared.

Batman and others had previously used non-lethal attacks on those monsters, which was also witnessed by many people, so it cannot be said to be "massacre of citizens".

So the government was in trouble.

After all, the military and police were not as rigorous as Batman and others.

This is a lot of fun.

Those people who lost their family members, friends, and homes would not be so calm to consider the difficulties of the military and police at that time. They only saw their relatives and friends being killed by the military and police! They obviously have salvation, and they only need to wait until Batman and others defeat the witch, and they can return to their original state...

For a while, the heroes who were pushed out by the official just a second ago were immediately overturned as murderers.

Of course, public opinion is not one-sided. The official naturally cannot let itself become a murderer, so naturally someone came out to control the comments, and to be honest, it was an emergency at that time, who could notice this?

But there is no doubt that the official role in this incident is already very bad.

In addition, Hannibal and Batman have some of the truth about the official Daxi City incident. This really buried a super landmine, and it is more likely that the authorities will explode on their own heads in the end. At the beginning, the television media kept silent about the Daxi City incident. Even though helicopters from television stations arrived one after another shortly after the incident, none of the footage they filmed was released.

But this kind of thing cannot be delayed. The longer it is delayed, the greater the chance that the authorities will take the blame. The people of the American Empire are not pure and kind. The United States has only been established for a few years, but there are many conspiracy theories. If it is really delayed, we don’t know what will happen.

So the authorities quickly reached a consensus.

Of course, the bigger reason is the Internet. The news has long been flooded on online media, with all kinds of videos and pictures, pictures and truth, and there is no room for manipulation.

Morning news, major news media also began to report.

It’s not because of the conscience of the media. As the world’s largest and most professional news maker, conscience has long been eaten by dogs. The ability of these media to make news is absolutely first-class. If you don’t believe it, you can go online and you will know. Various filters and renderings are professional. They can even say such shameless words as "They have nothing, but they have freedom" while standing on the ruins of war. What else can they not dare to do?

If we go back ten or twenty years, believe it or not, these media will dare to put the blame on Batman.

Otherwise, how can we say that the Internet is a great invention?

At least it makes the cost of media fraud higher.

Although the permanent population of Daxi City is only over 300,000, after deducting the tens of thousands of casualties, there are still more than 200,000 people left. The old and the young are unlikely to be active online, so we can reduce the number by tens of thousands. It is not easy for the remaining more than 100,000 people to express their opinions and videos and pictures online. These people alone can reveal a lot of explosive news. The situation in Daxi City cannot be concealed at all. The casualties are closely related to almost everyone in Daxi City. They are either relatives and neighbors, or friends and colleagues. Even homeless people can say that there are fewer familiar faces in their territory. This kind of news cannot be suppressed, and even the direction of the wind is difficult to guide.

President Benjamin flew to Tahiti on a special plane the morning after the incident. First, he wanted to express his condolences and second, he wanted to relieve the pressure on the government. He had no choice but to come out and stand up. Just thinking about Benjamin makes him want to cry. How many things have happened in less than three years since he took office.

Fortunately, Congress also knows that it is a bit too ugly to attack Benjamin with these things. Benjamin's crisis public relations are very good. At least after several incidents, Benjamin's support has not decreased. This is amazing. Obviously, the government was scolded badly, but President Benjamin did not move like a mountain, which made many people confused. But those who know know that it is because Benjamin has a good wife.

Benjamin's wife Margaret has always been a career woman. Because her husband was elected president, she had to interrupt her career, but she was depressed for a while and even wanted to divorce Benjamin. Later, because of the invasion of the White House, the couple thanked each other for their rapid progress and reconciled. So she changed her mind and began to intervene in her husband's career, intending to use her own abilities.

Now many people in the political arena are saying that the first lady is actually the first minister of the White House, not the secretary of state of the secretary of state. Margaret was originally a media person. She has a lot of connections in the media industry. With her own abilities, she can always help her husband get out of danger.

I'm getting off topic. Anyway, because the president has a good image and the situation on the earth is changing with each passing day, after experiencing several major events, everyone knows that danger is not far away from everyone on the earth today. Therefore, President Benjamin has a very good support rate in both parties in Congress. Everyone is still willing to see a popular president stabilize the situation.

The president's condolences did not make the sad atmosphere in Tahiti better. After all, no one knows what the future will be like.

The only thing the official can do in this situation is to let things pass as soon as possible.

The information explosion brought by the Internet has advantages, but also disadvantages. That is, people's forgetfulness has become greater. If it were decades ago, such a disaster would be enough to be remembered by the whole country for a long time, but now, this time has been greatly shortened.

Life is not easy, and most people don't want to think about those sad things. This is also the reason why many people don't like to watch art films, but only like to watch football games and soap operas - simple, fun, and can participate without thinking.

The official is obviously very proficient in this, and soon an entertainment activity appeared on the Internet: use mobile phones to surf the Internet and cheer for your favorite superhero.

Whether it is the nickname appearance, armor equipment, or combat power and performance, they can always be brought out and debated with fans of other heroes.

I have to say that this is really easy to get people involved. After all, compared with those tragedies, such debates are more attractive.

So for a while, the Internet was full of verbal battles. Fans of various superheroes cheered for their idols, but this thing always has to be compared to be interesting. Naturally, a situation of praising one and stepping on the other is formed, and debates come. Once debates come, there will be onlookers, and onlookers represent attention.

With attention, some media will naturally get involved and fan the flames. Being sarcastic is their way of making a living.

So the debate became more intense.

On the contrary, the attention paid to Tahiti continues to decline...

I have to say, this thing is more magical than magic.
