The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 1653 The young master is grand! (Please give me a monthly ticket!!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!)

In any sense, the relationship between mutants and terrorism is a very, very bad move.

After all, the government's policy towards mutants has long since changed. Although the early governments knew about mutants, they mostly ignored them.Because the number of mutants was so small in the beginning, it was enough to pretend they didn't exist.

But after World War II, the number of mutants increased explosively, and the government's policies were still very negative.The main purpose is to cover up and monitor, so as not to cause social unrest anyway.But when the baby boomer mutants from World War II grew up, many things could no longer be hidden.The government's policies also became radical due to the struggle for hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union and social changes, and began to secretly use some illegal means to contain and kill mutants.

This results in mutants generally hating the government and being wary of ordinary people.Even the mutant community is becoming more and more radical, and even ordinary people are full of hatred and misunderstanding of mutants.But after the First Year of Heroes, the emergence of superheroes greatly eased the situation.

Because ordinary people have seen many people with extraordinary abilities stand up to protect the world and act chivalrously, ordinary people have begun to view mutants more objectively.

When the world situation changes drastically, the government's policies can only change dramatically and make a 180-degree turn.Because they discovered that mutants are also an available resource.In particular, the alien invasion incident that occurred in Neon has particularly aggravated this view.

There are no mutants in Neon, and Neon's policy towards mutants is more radical and terrifying.If there are mutants in the United States who can live a normal life, it is impossible in Neon!Neon is a country that rejects surprises. At the same time, bullying culture is prevalent. If you are different from others, you are destined to be excluded and bullied.

Many mutants lived a very miserable life in Neon.

They are excluded and cannot even shop normally, and they are regarded as an ominous symbol.

As a result, when the parasitic beasts were causing trouble in Japan, none of the mutants stood up to help.The result is that S.H.I.E.L.D. and Spearhead are killing everyone in Neon, and the Neon government can only stand on the sidelines and watch, without even a chance to intervene.

To this end, Neon is even essentially split in half.

Half of it was taken over by flower growers and half was supervised by the United States. The entire Neon government completely became a colonial government. In addition to internal affairs, diplomacy and military were all divided up.It became the first de facto colony in the new century, even worse than those banana republics!

This is because the United States wants to restrict the flower growers, and the flower growers don't want their international image to be damaged, so the two sides did not squeeze too much in Neon and maintained the dignity of the Neon government, otherwise... it would be even worse!
Although there are many reasons for this tragic situation, it is not caused by one aspect without the help of mutants.But it has a lot to do with this result.

Because he has no extraordinary power, Neon has no resistance at all when facing the parasitic beast.As a last resort, foreign extraordinary forces can only be introduced to solve the imminent crisis, thereby completely losing the initiative.

This has sounded the alarm for many countries.

Especially during this crisis, the flower growers showed control over the mutant population, making all countries very envious.They completely used the mutants to their advantage and formed a well-disciplined special forces.As for the United States, to be honest, its performance in Neon does not count as experience. It’s just that SHIELD has rich experience in this area, so there is no shame. But to say how brilliant it is is pure nonsense. If it weren’t for the United States The superhero takes action, and the United States will definitely lose all face!

It can be said that the flower grower has given all countries a model!
Just follow along and copy it.

As a result, various countries began to significantly adjust their policies towards mutants.

Not to mention compared with flower growers, the policies pursued by others have been implemented for hundreds or thousands of years. They have already had strict and meticulous systems and experience. You will feel like you have caught up in a few years... just dream!But at least it can’t become neon!Why, such a big thing happened in my country, and it almost turned into the nest and hunting ground of alien monsters. In the end, Neon had nothing to do and could only watch those alien monsters wreaking havoc there.

The same is true for the United States.

Although superheroes are good, every politician naturally hates superheroes because they are out of control!
And it can backfire at any time.

This is unacceptable.

Therefore, it is urgent to form your own supernatural power, although due to public opinion and social atmosphere, it is impossible for the government to confront superheroes.But the availability of countermeasures is too important. They cannot allow themselves to be controlled by a group of vigilantes, so the United States has gone the furthest in this regard.

Their policy has simply changed by [-] degrees, and it is implemented as a national policy to win over mutants.

If you think they have achieved anything.

Consider what they do to black people and LGBT people in the real world.

This also led to mutants living quite well in the United States.Once you accept government registration, that mutant can receive a subsidy of one thousand to three thousand dollars from the government every month!This does not include the subsidies that other citizens should receive.

At the same time, if you accept a job provided by the government for some reason, the salary will start at least US$[-]!

Don’t think it’s less, but you must know that the median household income per capita in the United States is only over 6!And a mutant can earn between [-] and [-] yuan a year just by receiving subsidies without doing anything!If you join the workforce, your starting point will be above the median!

Simply outrageous.

The key is that the people didn't react much, it's not that they didn't envy, envy or hate.

But the number of mutants is too small!Even among those mutants who are unwilling to register and hide in the United States, it is still unknown whether the total number of mutants in the United States can exceed [-]!
There are simply too few mutants.Even if this amount is doubled ten times or a hundred times, this amount of money is only a small amount for the entire United States.Not to mention now.Spending tens of millions a year to win over these supermen is really very profitable.

So Congress has proposed another proposal to increase subsidies again.

There is no problem at all in passing, and it is even foreseeable that such proposals will be raised from time to time in the future.

There is no way, tens of millions is not enough for the US military's annual budget for purchasing coffee. It is such a bargain, even if it is doubled ten times, Congress will not hesitate.Such a budget would not be seriously discussed until that day, when it exceeds billions of dollars.

And those congressmen are not stupid, they need to win over the mutants for a long time, so this proposal will be like squeezing toothpaste, it will increase a little after a while.

These old guys are smarter than anyone else in this regard.

Spend a small amount of money to do big things.

It is also because of this atmosphere that the relationship between mutants, ordinary people, and the government was quickly repaired.

But the same rice feeds all kinds of people, and there are always some people who don't like to be restrained.

This is also understandable.But becoming a criminal and becoming a terrorist are definitely two different concepts.

If you talk about becoming a criminal, most other mutants will ignore it unless it involves them.After all, you can't influence him, plus some past grievances, everyone is a mutant, so if you turn a blind eye, it will be over.

But becoming a terrorist is different.

After all, in the current environment, mutants become terrorists, and the effect is absolutely explosive. Even if it is to ensure their normal lives, the vast majority of mutants will stand up against the Sinister Six.

"Sir, there is an elevator hijacked by the enemy. It is out of my control. They are ascending!"

Jarvis suddenly reminded.

"what happened?"

"The elevator is out of control. Although the lock command has been issued, the elevator is no longer controlled by the system." Jarvis said.

"The system has not been hacked?" Tony asked.

"Yes, the system has not been compromised."

"It seems that the Den King did it." Don't underestimate the intelligence collection ability of the federal government. Although there is nothing that can be done against this mutant organization for the time being, the intelligence has been collected very comprehensively. At least these mutants are really good at intelligence management. Very amateurish.

"How many people have not yet evacuated?"

Tony asked.

"Above the 35th floor, 60.00% of the personnel have been evacuated, and the evacuation is expected to be completed within 10 minutes."

In fact, there are really not too many people above the 35th floor.After all, the 35th floor and above are considered the core departments of the company, and most of them are administrative staff.The office environment in Stark Tower is still very good, and each employee has a large office area.As for the 75th floor and above, that is Stark's private area. Except for some necessary service personnel and scientific researchers for some key projects, there are fewer people.

After all, even if Tony was crazy, he wouldn't conduct a truly dangerous experiment in his own home.

So in general, the total number of people above the 35th floor is not large, but you can't expect these white-collar and gold-collar workers to have the same mobility as soldiers, otherwise they would have been evacuated in such a long time.

"That's good, let others prepare, and send these people's information along the way."

Yes, Tony had already ambushed someone in the building.

After all, knowing that the Red Room was going to rescue people, how could Tony not be prepared.

The only problem is that no one knows when the Red House will attack.Even if others want to help, they can't stay in Stark Tower forever.

So everyone takes turns, today it's Luke Cage and his friends Falcon and Nighthawk.Jessica was originally there before, but Rorschach's investigation came to a standstill. Saji could only send someone to help him, so Jessica left.

"Hey! Man. I think you can join us Defenders. You know, we Defenders are now the main force of New York vigilantes."

These three guys are resting in the guest room on the 79th floor... It is said to be a guest room, but the facilities here are more luxurious and advanced than an eight-star hotel.Not only does it have a complete set of training facilities, it also has many luxurious facilities.

For example, right now, they are sitting on the beach, basking in the sun and drinking iced drinks.

Yes, it’s the sea and the beach.

This is a holographic terrain projection system designed and manufactured by Stark Group.It can perfectly reproduce various terrains and natural environments one to one.Although it is fake, it gives people a very real sense. Its original intention is for training, but Tony feels that since it can be trained, it can naturally be used for vacation.

You must know that superheroes do not have holidays. Even Tony rarely leaves New York after becoming a superhero.

So this kind of home vacation facility is a must.

Luke and Double Eagle are enjoying this vacation right now.

Falcon, Sam Wilson, is a retired U.S. Air Force Pararescue Team member.Sam Wilson once served in the 58th Division Airborne Rescue Force and executed the EXO-7 Falcon secret program. Later, the pilot died unfortunately. After retiring, he worked in the Veterans Service.

With Kai's help, Luke Cage cleared his grievances and became a truly innocent man, while also receiving a large sum of compensation from the federal government.Kai has always felt that superheroes don't need to live such an ascetic life.

After being cleared of his grievances, Luke Cage's veteran status and benefits were restored.Later, when I went to the Veterans Services Office to go through the formalities, I met Sam.After going back and forth, the two of them became familiar with each other.

Later, when Luke Cage discovered that Sam was also a mutant, he immediately invited Sam.

Although the Defenders are only a small organization, Luke really didn't lie just now. They are indeed the most active in fighting crime in New York.But behind the positivity is a serious shortage of manpower.

Make sense.

Now there are actually only three people in the entire Defenders Alliance.

Daredevil, Luke and Jessica, Jessica still has her own job. She is extremely busy every day and rarely participates in Defender activities.There are also several non-staff members, although they can also help, but...Luke is now in a relationship, and he needs time. Otherwise, when will he and Claire get married?
So he needs manpower.

Daredevil is undoubtedly the leader of the alliance, but to be honest, his leadership is MAX, but he is really not that good at communicating with others.

So the job of organizational director belongs to Luke.

"Hey, man, I...I really want to join the Defenders. Listen, buddy, I don't mean to look down on you. I can even say that you and Daredevil are my idols, but I have already received an offer from the Shadow Bureau. It’s an invitation from Captain America Steve Rogers!”

From the way this guy talks about Steve Rogers, you can tell that this grandson is definitely a fan of Captain America.

"Hey! Brother! Steve is a white guy! Typical old Angsa! You actually abandoned me for him?" Luke didn't have any objections to Captain America, but thinking about the other party's Shadow Bureau family and their great business, he actually still talked to him. Strong man, Luke said he couldn't stand it.

And what Luke said is right, Captain America is not as aggressive among the black people as it is among the white people.At least some black people are not that cool with Captain America.After all, what does World War II... have to do with them black people?During World War II, black people also served as soy sauce in the army.

Sam was a little embarrassed. After all, in the black community, those bad boys who said they admired Captain America the most would not have anything good to say. In fact, the person the black community admired most now was Luke Cage.No way, black superheroes are really rare.

"Brother, there's nothing wrong with me liking Captain America. But I don't mean to look down on you, it's just... man. I go to the Shadow Bureau, I have a salary and benefits. I go to the Defenders... I also want to eat."

There is nothing wrong with this.This left Luke speechless.

There is no other way. He can bring his own dry food and act like a hero, but not everyone is like him. Can one person eat enough and the whole family not be hungry?Even now, in the past, he still had to work to earn money for food.It can only be said that Kai helped him a lot. He received millions of dollars in compensation from the federal government and is now so comfortable.No need to worry about money.

But Sam had nowhere to go to get the compensation.

Luke looked expectantly at Nighthawk, who had nothing to do with Nighthawk.The two didn't even know each other very well.But one thing they all have in common is that they are all huge fans of Batman.

Nighthawk's real name is Kyle Richmond. He used to be a playboy. He didn't have much money, but his father was a millionaire. He lived a luxurious life since he was a child. He was a problem child since he was a child. To save his father from getting into trouble, after he was caught driving while taking drugs, drinking, and driving, his father was completely furious.

His father really didn't expect him to have any future. His father's request for him was very simple. He would just live his life and wait for death. As long as he gave birth to a healthy and obedient grandson before his father burped, it would be... ...Their family has so much wealth that he will never be able to lose it all in his lifetime. As long as he has an heir, it will be enough. As long as he doesn't commit suicide and start a business, anything will work.

But according to the trajectory of his life, his father is very afraid that this bastard can kill himself before his father dies.So in a rage, he threw him into the army, hoping to use the rules of the army to make him change.

Don't mention it, although this guy is a headache, he is really a good soldier and very talented.He thrived in the army, and his father never expected that an outstanding soldier would come out of his own family.As a result, within a few years, he had physical problems. He had a heart murmur, which is generally a sign of heart disease.

His father immediately retired him.Let him go home to recuperate and give himself a grandson.

However, after training in the army, Kyle's outlook on life has changed dramatically, and he is not willing to be a rice bug.But his body... he didn't expect that an accident would turn him around.This matter really has something to do with Batman.

He was in Los Angeles when there was a big earthquake in Los Angeles and almost got a fart.It was Batman who saved him.

Since then, he has become a fan of Batman. At the same time, that night, he awakened his superpowers. Only then did he know that he was actually a mutant.

His ability is very special, that is, it only works at night.He discovered that he had superhuman strength and endurance at night, and he also had powerful regeneration abilities at night.But during the day, he was just a normal guy.

This discovery made him so happy that he became a superhero.

His father only felt that he had done something wrong by giving birth to such a piece of barbecued pork. His life had been running in an unpredictable direction, but he just didn't follow the route designed by his father.

But there is no way, just such a son. Besides, it is better to be a superhero than to be a jerk. Even if he really burped that day, the epitaph engraved on the tombstone will sound much better than that of a fool who died in a car accident while taking drugs. .

So he froze his son's sperm as a guarantee and let him continue to have sex.

Anyway, being a superhero is much more reliable than starting a business. Starting a business can make him lose all his wealth overnight. How much money can he lose by being a superhero?

Can be made!
He also knew Luke because of his military background.

"Kyle, what did you say?"

"I don't care." Kyle thinks there is no problem in joining the Defenders: "By the way, if Sam is really serious, I can inject capital into our alliance. I believe that my father doesn't care about funding hundreds or tens of millions every year."

money?For the rich second generation, money is just a number. Although his family is not as wealthy as Stark, they are still billionaires.

He didn't care himself, since his father was dead anyway, the money was all his, so why should he spend it instead of just spending it?

Sam and Luke looked at each other. Poor kids like them couldn't stand a rich guy like this.

But...there's something going on!

No one says superheroes have to be poor.

And Kai is different, recharging Matt every year?Otherwise Daredevil would have been sleeping on the street!

No problem!
"That's great! I'll talk to Matt when we get back! We, the Defenders, are also a group of superheroes. Let's not compare with Tony Stark, right? But we at least need a secret base or something! Claire has already told me I have complained several times about their midnight clinic, but they still haven’t found a new location!”

"It's a joke, there are a lot of unused properties in my house! By the way, I can also give the three lovely nurses a salary that is in line with their value!"

"Here's to our Mr. Richmond! He's so generous!"

Sam and Luke quickly toasted to the sponsor!

Just then the message from Jarvis came over.
