"Oh my God! That crazy Grant Ward actually did it!"
Seeing the information constantly scrolling on the news channel, as well as countless celebrities, politicians, and wealthy people who were killed or turned into prisoners, the resurrected Iron Man Tony Stark opened his mouth wide and showed an extremely shocked expression.
Because no one knows better than him that what the other party does is actually equivalent to directly purging the original upper ruling class in human society, which will definitely cause violent social unrest and chaos.
In particular, the stock, financial and securities markets are bound to face an unprecedented collapse.
In addition, manufacturing plants and enterprises will also fall into panic due to the disappearance of the entire board of directors.
As the saying goes, everything has a price.
It would be great to directly cleanse the capital groups whose hands are stained with blood and sin, but how to fill the void left by their disappearance is the biggest problem.
You must know that transactions and commerce are an indispensable and important part of any mature civilization.
Although with the current productivity of the earth, it is completely possible for most civilians to live well under the rationing system.
But this is obviously not a long-term solution.
"Calm down, Stark. These evil guys should have died long ago. Eradicating them is definitely a good thing for the entire human race."
Steve Rogers, the American team member who was also resurrected, clearly expressed his support.
As someone who has only half a foot in the realm of gods, he can clearly feel that none of these guys who were arrested can be called innocent.
Especially those who often donate money to charity activities on the surface, all of them are flashing with the black and red camp aura that symbolizes extreme evil.
You don’t need to ask to know that most of these so-called charitable activities are just a cover for them to achieve ulterior motives.
As for secretly, illegal organ trading, human trafficking, forcing children to provide special services for themselves, etc. are all commonplace.
"Of course I know they're not good people.
But the problem is that this is too drastic!
What the People's Federation should do now is to calm people's emotions and try their best to ensure social stability and prevent large-scale unrest.
But Grant Ward did the exact opposite.
What exactly does he want to do?
Do you really want to imitate Julius Caesar and become a lifelong dictator?"
Tony Stark's tone was filled with intense concern.
Because this is equivalent to a military coup to a certain extent.
However, Grant Ward was originally a member of the highest decision-making level of the People's Federation, so legally he did have the authority to issue such an order.
After all, the incriminating evidence that was released is all true.
Even following formal legal procedures is enough to sentence them all to death.
You must know that since the concept of soul currency was introduced, the abolition of the death penalty movement, which was originally popular around the world, has completely changed from human rights, which originally occupied the moral high ground, to a street rat that everyone shouted to beat.
Especially the media, which is controlled by capital, has made a 180-degree turn in its attitude almost overnight, with the speed of change of attitude being the fastest in the world.
The reason is also very simple.
The capital giants behind the media urgently need souls in exchange for the advanced technology of Baator Hell, as well as various treasures that can cure diseases, slow down aging, and even extend their lifespan.
In some areas, there were even harsh sentences for misdemeanors, and a large number of uneducated blacks and Latinos who could only join gangs on the streets were planned to be slaughtered like livestock coming out of the gate.
In addition, with the help of some mercenaries from the ninth level of Baator Hell, some bureaucrats of the People's League will encourage local governments to confiscate the bodies of executed prisoners and smuggle them to Baator Hell to sell them to those on death row.
Demons, demons and necromancers earn "foreign currency".
In short, as the connections between the two sides become more and more frequent and closer, even many gray and even black industries are constantly being upgraded, and the overall situation presents a scene of vigorous vitality and competition among all things.
Iron Man is now very worried that after the end of this purge, the relationship with the ninth level of Baator Hell will deteriorate.
You must know that they paid a huge price and took great pains to establish various trading channels.
Especially those scarce materials related to magic and supernatural powers, there is simply no other way to obtain them.
"Tony, our Stark Industries will not be affected, right?"
Pepper Potts had a nervous and worried look on her face.
After all, this was a major purge of the entire ruling class and capital interest groups. She knew many of the families and had good personal relationships with them.
But now, these formerly high-ranking masters are either reduced to prisoners awaiting trial, or they are exterminated directly because they tried to resist arrest.
Yes, you read that right, it means annihilating the family rather than simply killing them.
Because the people responsible for this capture operation are the Legion of Astartes and the elite team of Hydra.
The weapons used by the former are bolters, meltaguns, and disintegration weapons, which are designed to deal with the most brutal space wars.
If the terrifying power is affected at all, it may not even be able to leave a body, let alone a life.
Therefore, once the fire is fired, it is basically impossible to leave any survivors, and the entire building will often be razed to the ground. Even the pets, cockroaches and rats inside must be buried with their owners.
As for the elite operations team under Hydra, they believe in achieving the goal by any means necessary and do not care about the issue of accidental injury or not.
In their eyes, this was a military operation organized to seize supreme power.
Therefore, every target on the list is an enemy or potential enemy, and a heavy blow must be struck to ensure that no one can escape, otherwise there will definitely be big trouble in the future.
Because they are guided by such extreme ideas, their behavior is similar to that of the Tribunal and the Assassin's Tribunal in the Warhammer universe.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Once resistance is discovered, the entire family of the opponent will be uprooted immediately, and the family will be cleansed from the bloodline and genetic levels to prevent future troubles.
At present, the number of firefights mentioned in the report alone has reached more than 50, and the death list has reached a terrifying four-digit figure.
As a member who has just stepped into this circle, how could Pepper Potts not be nervous and afraid?
But Tony Stark shrugged his shoulders indifferently and comforted: "Don't worry, Grant Ward and Hydra won't touch me.
Because I am fundamentally different from them.
Stark Industries Group is the enterprise that invests the most in scientific and technological research and development on the entire planet, and has the highest output results and conversion rate.
And there is no criminal evidence or black material at all.
What's more, my current identity is still a hero who fights to the last moment for mankind.
If nothing else happens, they will take the initiative to contact me soon."
The words have not yet been spoken!
An aircraft that can only operate in low-Earth orbit parked in front of the window of the Avengers headquarters.
Before anyone could react to what was happening, the originally closed floor-to-ceiling windows opened automatically, and a black officer walked out and said hello with a smile.
"Hey, Tony, long time no see. You look good and you don't seem to be affected by your previous death, right?"
"James? Oh my god! Look at your new uniform. Could it be that you have been promoted again?"
Iron Man walked straight up and gave the other person a warm hug.
You don't need to ask to know that the visiting black officer is none other than his former friend in the military, Colonel Rhodes.
However, he did not obtain the steel armor and become a war machine as he originally did. Instead, after the establishment of the People's Federation, he was directly incorporated into it and became a senior officer.
Later, due to some reasons, he was recruited by Hydra to become the person in charge of the equipment and logistics procurement department. He mainly contacted technology companies and arms dealers with strong R&D, manufacturing and transformation capabilities, such as Tony Stark.
But today, he was wearing a military uniform with a military rank of at least general. Anyone who is not blind would know that he must have been promoted.
Rhodes also enthusiastically hugged this friend with a genius mind and responded with a smile: "That's right! I have left the logistics department and been officially appointed as the chief of staff of the 17th Landing Operations Corps."
"So you're here today just to show off your new uniform and new position to me? Or do you want me to throw a party for you to celebrate?"
Iron Man teased with a wicked smile.
As we all know, any party he holds must be indispensable for two things.
The same is a variety of expensive drinks, and the other is a large number of beauties wearing sexy and cool clothes.
Especially the latter, even after establishing a relationship with Pepper Potts, he is still like this, but he will no longer fool around with these party beauties.
Rhodes quickly waved his hand: "No, please don't.
This is not why I came all the way.
I believe you have seen the news reports on TV, right?
To tell you the truth, the leader has decided to reorganize the People's Federation into the Human Empire and establish a complete centralized system.
To be continued...
