In fact, the difficulties faced by General Ross are not big. What troubles him comes more from his heart.
When facing changes in the world, people will feel somewhat stressed.
It's just that for people like General Ross, who can barely be considered a high-level human being, the pressure is even greater.
He cannot simply accept the changes in the world, let alone ignore all these changes like a heartless person!
Being stuck in the middle will cause him to have the current troubles.
"Hulk, do you want to be a savage?"
Dr. Banner said to Hulk.
Hulk, who was not here before, suddenly returned to Dr. Banner's side.
"I want to, but I don't want to be separated from you."
Hulk's tone was rare and calm.
This doesn't look like "normal" him, but Hulk doesn't think there's anything wrong with him like this.
He doesn't lose his anger, but he can control his anger better.
No one must be born based on anger, and neither is Hulk! After he gradually developed a normal way of thinking, his whole person became a bit more peaceful.
"Really? You don't want to be separated from me...
To be honest, you should also know how much I wanted to be separated from you.
In my eyes at that time, your existence ruined my life."
Dr. Banner's tone was also a bit strange.
He was very panicked when he first became aware of Hulk's existence. He originally had a decent job and a stable life, but all of them were completely in ruins with the appearance of Hulk.
Later, he kept trying to find a way to completely get rid of Hulk, but now he began to look forward to reconciliation between himself and Hulk.
When he began to realize that he and Hulk were actually one body, he and Hulk had become different individuals.
Now that he wants to reconcile with Hulk, it would be better to say that he has completed his reconciliation with himself.
But Hulk is still Hulk.
He couldn't kill a self-aware being, but he didn't make the decision to merge with the Hulk so easily.
Recently, he even noticed the entanglement in Betty Rose's heart, which was the entanglement in making a choice between "Hulk" and "him".
After Betty also became a monster, Betty was reluctant to let go of her past with Dr. Banner.
As a monster, Betty could not convince herself to be with Dr. Banner, who had returned to the normal world.
On the contrary, it is the current Hulk that makes Betty feel a bit like "one of her own".
"So Hulk hated you at first."
Hulk said unabashedly.
Maybe it's because Hulk hasn't learned to hide his emotions yet, or maybe he never thought he could hide his emotions.
Dr. Banner understood what Hulk meant.
Since it was annoying in the past, it should at least be less annoying now.
Banna wants to integrate with Hulk again, but it is difficult to make this decision.
"Perhaps we all need time to think, and then use time to make the final decision for us."
Banner said something that Hulk couldn't quite understand, but Hulk laughed.
He felt Banner's kindness towards him, so he smiled, although the Hulk looked a bit silly when he smiled.
However, this joy also temporarily relieved Dr. Banner's worries.
Dr. Banner glanced at the monitor in front of him, which showed the somewhat forlorn figure of Betty Rose.
He didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong, but he at least wanted Betty Rose to stop being troubled like she was now.
Dr. Banner has always been a gentle person, but his gentleness and kindness in the past rarely yielded good results.
"Banner, if you have made a decision, you must tell me."
Hulk said to Banner like he was a close friend.
But this kind of performance constantly reminds Dr. Banner that Hulk is no longer a simple thought and a terrifying emotion.
"Okay, I will tell you my thoughts. Just don't hide your thoughts then."
Dr. Banner said with a smile, even though he knew that Hulk probably hadn't learned to hide anything yet.
…
General Ross has reached the edge of the battlefield, and fighting has begun in the inner circle of the battlefield.
Seeing this completely different way of fighting from the past, General Ross was still a little uncomfortable even though it was not the first time he had seen such a scene.
The object of their fight was a metal demon. After reading the report on the Ultron incident, it was difficult for them not to associate this metal demon with Ultron.
General Ross couldn't help but think about the way wars were fought in the past, but he soon got rid of the memories.
"Duggan! What's going on now?"
General Ross called out to the veteran Dum to play Dugan.
Dugan is the man in charge of this matter on SHIELD's side, and the power of SHIELD here is completely managed by Dugan.
General Ross, who arrived a little late, could only obtain more intelligence through Dugan.
It's not that his soldiers didn't tell him the situation, but that the old guy Dugan was able to get more useful information from previous battles.
This is a gap in experience, and even talented soldiers cannot do better than Dugan.
Dugan Dugan has been a soldier and an agent, and he is already a talented person.
"According to the Nephalem, that metal demon should have surpassed the elite level, and is even approaching the edge of legend.
But I feel that there is something wrong here. All the demons that have appeared before have shown intelligence to varying degrees.
But this guy seems to be a puppet manipulated by others!"
Dugan said with a cigar in his mouth.
He is not directly fighting this demon on the front line of the battle. His current identity is the commander of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Although the commander does not have to stay away from the battlefield, he should ensure his own safety first if he still has some remaining strength.
From the perspective of watching, Dugan can also see more things for analysis, and then change the battle strategy.
"That means this guy might just be a robot wearing a devil's skin?"
General Ross immediately realized the problem.
"It is possible, but there is no evidence at all at the moment.
Demons that are not made of flesh and blood do not show much pain when attacked.
Although the souls of those guys seem to be completely bound to their bodies, the metal demons have never shown pain on a physical level."
Dugan took a deep drag on his cigar, his face looking a little gloomy.
The changes that have taken place in this world are not easy for him. He even wants to return to the environment like during World War II.
Although he was also under a lot of pressure at that time, he only had to consider which enemy stronghold or line of defense he should take down every day.
Now the things he needs to consider are becoming more and more complicated, so complicated that his head feels like it's not clear.
"Who is that kid who released the energy bomb?"
General Ross suddenly asked.
He saw a young man performing very well in the battle, and he couldn't help but ask a few more questions out of admiration.
If it were in the past, he would be particularly interested in people with such super powers. Although he is quite interested now, he will not choose those extreme methods to "understand" the other party.
"That kid's code name is Fastball, and he is considered a mainstay in S.H.I.E.L.D.
Under this chaotic situation, that kid will be promoted much faster than in the past. Maybe he will become the director of SHIELD after the chaos subsides."
Dugan gave the information easily.
