108. Chapter 107 Bruce’s decision (please subscribe)

 Chapter 107 Bruce’s decision (please subscribe)

Mr. Moretz, who has one red eye and one blue eye, has arrived in California.

But who would have known that 15 minutes ago, he was still having talks with Senator Underwood in Washington.

And looking at the two founders of West Bank Country, it is obvious that Moretz has been sitting here for a long time.

In other words, 15 minutes ago, Moretz might still be with them.

So who is the guy heading to Washington?

However, these things are not things that the two founders of West Coast Country need to think about now.

They now want to know even more why Moretz was able to give such a simple evaluation.

"Robotics technology." Moretz's face was hidden in the shadows, but what he said made the two rich men understand.

"Weaponized drones, controlled by central artificial intelligence. A thousand can shut down the most troublesome border."

This sentence obviously moved the two rich men. The young rich man Monte wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the older Stanford.

"Where can we get something like this, Moretz?"

Only now did Moretz sit upright, letting his face escape from the shadows.

"Dr. Hank Pym invented them before he died. He called them wasps. Use technology to get saved."

“Isn’t this exactly what the West Bank countries are trying to do?”

——

On the border of California and Arizona, a family is trying to enter the West Coast country using a homemade kayak on the Colorado River.

The older boy stood on the kayak, staring closely at the bright light.

"Dad, look at those lights!" The boy was quite excited.

But his father just told him: "Dylan, don't stand there—"

But before his father could finish warning him, the child who stood up fell directly into the river due to the fluctuation of the river.

"Daddy!" the child who fell into the water shouted to his father before falling into the water.

"Dylan!"

"I can't find Dylan!" The father was frantically searching for his child in the water, but the mother and other children on the other side had already seen the robots making aggressive gestures towards them in the sky above them.

.

"Then - what are those?" The mother stared at those wasp-like robots with fear.

But the children didn't know anything. They just stared at the robot and secretly admired how cool they looked.

The robots just ruthlessly used their electronic voices to say to the refugees who wanted to smuggle into the West Bank countries: "You have three seconds to return to your original country."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Our child is missing -" The father still wanted to try to find Dylan's whereabouts, but the robot had already started counting down.

"three."

"Hello, please help us find our son, is there anyone?"

"two."

"Please have mercy! Oh, my God—"

"one."

"The bodies of a family of five were found along the Colorado River this morning."

The host on the early morning news said this sentence with a hint of sadness.

"The death toll on the California-Arizona border has exceeded 100, and the deployment of weaponized drone formations on the border has exacerbated the situation within the young and idealistic West Coast nation."

"More details later, good morning, I'm Sheryl Crowder."

But TV news can't just broadcast deaths on the California-Arizona border. They prefer to focus all their attention on newer and more important events.

For example, now they have put up huge banners on the screen.

What is written above is the decision of the United States.

"Today's headlines: Opinion polls are being held across the United States for the country's historic first presidential recall election. According to special election rules, Americans will choose the new president from among many candidates."

"After a limited two-week campaign, voters are in no rush to make up their minds."

"President Howard is facing accusations of legitimacy and doubts about his ability. Now he is facing fierce competition for his position." While the host was speaking, the TV was also showing the support ratings of the current presidential candidates, except that

Among those guys with high approval ratings, there is a special avatar that is hard not to notice.

It was a yellow head with a bat on it.

"But as America's electorate continues to be divided and broken, it's unclear whether this special election can restore America's unity."

"Confidence in government has plummeted since the attack in Washington, which killed most of our elected federal lawmakers."

"Urban unrest, militia uprisings and violence across the Southwest show no signs of abating."

"The American government has lost control of the country. Anxious citizens are turning to local leaders for help, with disastrous results."

"More than two dozen independent Midwestern groups formed the Great Lakes Alliance. A former police officer named David Seeger turned the Motor City into an armed encampment, earning the title 'Detroit Dictator.'"

"North and South Carolina and their 'Sunday Warrior' armies continue to wage war across the border, with each country accusing the other of looting, cyberattacks and slander."

"There have been riots in New York before, but fortunately we have the New York police and the help of a masked vigilante, who can allow us to regain peace amidst the chaos and unrest."

When the host said this, he quietly pulled his mug to the range that the camera could capture, and there was a bat printed on it.

But the expression on her face seemed to say that she didn't do anything and was just seriously carrying out her reporting.

“The most brazen independence movement is the self-proclaimed West Bank state. Despite its bold attempts to distance itself from this maelstrom, it finds itself home to the most horrific border killings and a growing humanitarian crisis.”

"Thousands of refugees fleeing bloody chaos in the Southwest are being held in camps along the California border, which are outraged by the treatment of the Henderson family, who were killed last night as they tried to cross the river to safety in California.

"

"Reports of riots breaking out inside refugee camps are spreading, with national organizations describing them as shocking -"

In the Batcave at this moment, Bruce and Jessica were frowning at the news.

"I really can't figure out why those guys would take such actions. They obviously have the ability to help those people." Jessica's attitude towards California is obvious, and it can even be said that she treats those lives as if they are nothing.

I'm quite dissatisfied with Wuwu's approach.

"Does it mean that those rich people really don't care about the lives of those people at all?"

Jessica looked up at Bruce when she spoke.

"They will only think that their own lives are the most important." Bruce is very familiar with that kind of people. Bruce knows how many people in Gotham's upper class are like this.

But now it's just these guys who have completely exposed their true appearance to the public.

Just like Bruce in the past, he would never have thought that some rich people would force their children to exchange blood for themselves so that they could live forever.

"So do you think the current American government will allow it to intervene in this matter?" Jessica looked at the people moving in the refugee camp in the news footage and couldn't help but said with some sadness.

They were once citizens like themselves who could live a normal life under the sun.

"No." Bruce said this to Jessica almost categorically.

Jessica wanted to ask why, but Bruce had already begun to explain his own reasons.

"The current President Howard has to say that he is indeed a pretty good guy. But now that his political status has been shaken, of course, the first thing he must choose is to stabilize his position as President of the United States."

"Although everything that happens on the West Coast of the United States was once American territory and American affairs."

"But now they have passed the independence bill and declared themselves an independent country. If President Howard wants to stabilize his position, he cannot easily provoke disputes with other countries."

"If I guess correctly, President Howard should have warned Captain America not to think about going anywhere near California."

Jessica will not question Bruce's guess, because Bruce has not guessed anything wrong so far.

But it is precisely because of this that Jessica can't help but feel a little sad about the current United States.

"I'm going out for a trip. The rest of New York will be left to you. You can also find Peter Parker to assist you in your work. As for Miles, let him receive training first." Bruce finished this sentence.

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the uniform room.

"???" Jessica obviously didn't react to Bruce's words. What does it mean to give New York to herself?

"What are you going to do?"

"Go to California, go see the people in the refugee camps, go see the people who control drones to kill people." Bruce walked into the uniform room.

But this time, Bruce didn't choose his original suits, but directly stretched his hand into the pool of black liquid on the side.

As Bruce stretched out his hand, the liquid had already wrapped around Bruce's body.

A jet-black battle suit quickly appeared on Bruce's body.

It's obviously like a liquid, but after turning into a suit, it actually has a metallic luster.

But when it's formed into a cloak, it's as soft as velvet.

"Didn't you say that the American government would not agree to go to California?"

"What does what he said have to do with me? Am I Captain America? And I don't think Captain America agrees with the policies of the American government."

The black liquid slowly crawled onto Bruce's face, forming a unique bat mask.

"What I want to do is let them know what fear is."
