Chapter 784 Fairness and Unfairness(2/4)
"What? What are ether particles? How can they turn the entire universe into darkness? Also, what does this matter have to do with the earth?"
Black Widow's original smile instantly froze on her face.
You must know that it has only been about a year since the Chitauri invaded. Before that, there was the arrival of Dormammu, the lord of the dark dimension, and various crises and troubles, large and small...
She completely did not understand what evil the earth and mankind had done. Disasters similar to world-ending disasters occurred so frequently and one after another.
Thor scratched the back of his head and stammered: "Well...it's quite troublesome to explain this matter.
I only know that the ether particles are the Reality Stones among the Infinity Stones, and are of the same level as the previous Cosmic Cube.
According to Soth, this thing has the power to distort and rewrite reality.
Once Malekith takes advantage of the opportunity of the nine kingdoms to line up and release it, all the stars in the universe will be extinguished in an instant.
If you want to know more, it’s best to ask him directly.”
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Shet!"
After learning how serious the situation was, Black Widow couldn't help but uttered a curse word, and immediately reported to SHIELD headquarters through the built-in communication device of the power mecha: "Director, I think you have heard it, right? We should now
How to do it?"
"First bring Thor back, report it to the United Nations Headquarters immediately, and notify all Avengers that their vacation is over. Also, have Coulson's special operations team temporarily suspend its original mission and enter a state of special combat readiness."
Maria Hill issued several orders at once.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, she, the new director who replaced Nick Fury, can be said to be a very powerful person. Her authority even exceeds that of the top leaders of more than 90% of countries. She has the ability to mobilize people without any formalities.
The power of a capital space battleship.
But only she knew that she was sitting on a volcano that could erupt at any time.
Whether it was an internal threat or a threat from the outside, she was overwhelmed.
Once a major mistake is made, he may be used as a scapegoat and follow in the footsteps of Director Lu Dan within minutes.
"Where is Mr. Soth?"
Black Widow asked in a low voice.
Maria Hill responded without thinking: "Don't worry over there, I will personally inquire about the specific situation. Anyway, let's take action first. If there is no exaggeration in it, we will be in big trouble this time.
"
As S.H.I.E.L.D. reported the situation to the Human League, which had the highest decision-making power, the huge war machine built by integrating all the resources of the earth finally started to move.
Among them, the first to respond was the lunar surface base located at the forefront of defense.
Although the fortification of the moon has only barely completed the first phase of the project, it already has the capability of interstellar warfare.
In particular, the core energy shield system has been installed, and several super energy cannons have begun to charge and are ready to be fired at any time.
The fleet floating in outer space also merged with the defense array in the planet's orbit, intending to attack any enemy who dared to approach.
While the Earth's high-level officials were nervously preparing for the war, Zuo Si and Laka had already arrived at the restaurant they had reserved in advance, and walked into the box under the guidance of the waiter.
As a coincidence, as soon as they opened the door, they saw Tony Stark and Pepper Potts kissing each other.
"Do we need to go out and avoid it first?" Zuo Si teased in a half-joking tone.
"No, no need, we are just finished."
Pepper Potts quickly pushed Iron Man away and smiled awkwardly.
On the contrary, the latter, who has always been very thick-skinned, complained with a look of resentment: "You came at the right time. Forget it, please sit down. Anyway, Miss Carla saved Pepper Potts at a critical moment last time.
I have to express my gratitude properly."
"My dear, you are so beautiful today."
Pepper Potts took the initiative to stand up, gave Kara a hug and wanted to kiss the latter's cheek.
As one of the few people who has witnessed the almost violent crushing force of a Kryptonian girl fighting, she is obviously very aware of the almost unlimited potential possessed by the other party, so she will do her best to close the relationship.
Not for anything else, just to ask Tony Stark for help when he is in danger.
Otherwise, if it were an ordinary life-saving favor, at best it would be just some money to spend casually.
Want to take this opportunity to enter the circle of a top capital consortium like Stark Industries?
Go ahead and dream!
Ordinary people who want to achieve this level of class leap must either have incredible abilities or have endless money to spend.
But Kara obviously does not belong to these two categories.
She won the respect of Pepper Potts with her strong personal strength that could break all barriers.
What's more, in this world, comics such as Superman and Batman exist. Anyone who sees Kara's abilities will immediately associate her with the Kryptonians.
"No! You just had a passionate kiss with someone, and I don't want to get contaminated by his saliva."
Kara raised a finger to block the other person's approaching lips with a look of disgust.
Pepper Potts was not angry when he saw this. Instead, he couldn't help laughing: "Hahahaha! Tony, you are disliked."
Iron Man curled his lips disapprovingly: "That's because she is too young and doesn't know how to appreciate a man with a mature and steady temperament like me."
"Come on, stop putting so much money on your face.
If you don't have money, fame, and a smart brain, I guarantee that even the street girl on the roadside won't give you a second look.
Just the opposite.
With your bad temper right now, you might not be able to get out of the block without being shot to death."
Zuo Si unceremoniously exposed the opponent's background.
"Hey! I didn't offend you." Iron Man protested loudly.
Just when Pepper Potts was about to notify the restaurant to serve food, there was suddenly a loud shouting and cursing outside the window.
Looking out through the glass, you can clearly see tens of thousands of people wearing red T-shirts walking from a distance holding slogans. If nothing else, it should be a "traditional arts" demonstration.
Since this is a typical commercial street and affluent area, the police who arrived felt like they were facing the enemy.
Seven or eight armed helicopters that had been phased out from the military arrived, and police cars and anti-explosion armored vehicles followed all the way. Rubber bullets and tear gas were already ready.
If there is even the slightest hint of a riot, they will immediately rush in to suppress it.
"This is……"
Zuo Si was obviously very interested in this and looked at the slogans and slogans of the parade with great interest.
Because through groupthink perception and memory reading, he could clearly feel that this group of people was different from those purely disgusting people who made trouble. They were just a group of ordinary people who did not want to lie down and be treated as pigs and were eager to get a job.
The content of the protest is also very simple, it is to hope that the government can provide enough low-end jobs so that you can support yourself and your family through work with dignity.
"Oh - has it started again?"
Iron Man sighed slightly, then stood at the window and looked down. After half a minute, he explained: "They are all victims of the technological explosion.
Because they do not have enough academic qualifications and cultural standards to adapt to the rapid changes, they will ultimately be unable to integrate into this new era, and they will not be able to find any job.
In particular, the mass application of intelligent robots and bionic robots has led to mass layoffs in the service industry at an unimaginable rate.
Unless one has outstanding appearance and figure, operators are more willing to use machines to replace people.
This means that industries without any technical barriers no longer need labor.
Tens of millions of people who have received happy education are being abandoned by society and becoming victims.
They were very angry and dissatisfied about this, and heard that serious riots had broken out in many places, and even vendettas against the rich had occurred.
According to Dr. Banner, mankind is living in the best of times.
Because for the highly educated and wealthy, everything that was once only in science fiction novels and movies is gradually becoming a reality.
It won't even be long before we begin to march into the stars and the sea.
But again, this is also the worst of times.
Because not everyone can adapt to such changes, especially middle-aged and elderly people who are not smart or conservative.
I heard that some conservative places even refuse all overly advanced technologies to enter the places where they live, and some extreme communities have been formed.
If things go on like this, humanity will become more and more polarized.
Some will live in the clouds and become a new kind of human beings, while those who refuse to enter the new era will slowly be regarded as old humans, or a completely different species like chimpanzees and gorillas.
Just imagining that scene makes my skin crawl."
You don't need to ask to know that Tony Stark's worries are by no means groundless.
With the continuous upgrading and improvement of genetic modification technology, it is only a matter of time before the earth in this universe masters the ability to modify its own genes.
When the time comes, in order to compete with powerful interstellar civilizations such as the Kree Empire, the Shi'ar Empire, and the Skrull Empire, the new humans will inevitably try to make themselves stronger.
At that time, the state of vigorous vitality and competition among all things in the dark technological age of humanity in the Warhammer Universe will inevitably take place.
It won't be long before the entire race may completely transform into another species.
Will they still think that the primitive, ignorant, barbaric, and conservative humans living on the earth are their compatriots?
To be continued...
