The Devil Comes to the United States

Chapter 422
At night, Zed slept in the master bedroom of Malik Manor with Hilde in his arms.

After Gideon retired, the master bedroom was converted into Zed and Stephanie's bedroom.It was also in this bedroom that Stephanie put Hildra to bed for the first time, fighting side by side.

At this time, there is only a pair of mandarin ducks on the luxurious big bed prepared for the three-person tango, which makes the bed a bit too big.When Zed got up to go to the bathroom at night and turned around, his feet couldn't touch the ground, and his buttocks had to move to the edge of the bed.

After the water was released, Zed lifted the quilt and came back again. He found that Hilde was still on Hilde's smooth back and asked:
"Why don't you go to bed? Didn't you say that you still have work tomorrow?"

"Madam's not here, I'm not used to it." Hilde was submissive to Stephanie, and she didn't have much resistance when the three of them tangoed. Now she is not used to sleeping with Zed alone.

Zed approached Hilde's ear and said:

"If you can't sleep, let's chat. Uh~, how is the alien army?"

"This... it's not appropriate. It's better for Madam to say this in person." Hilde could still figure it out clearly, knowing which one was more important to him, the master or the madam.

"What's wrong with this? I still provided this army. I want to know how many people pass the test and become private soldiers of the Malik family. After all, I also want to recycle the dial." Zed still remembers the original Trade, make up for the lack of quality with quantity.

Hilde thought for a while and finally gave an unexpected answer:

"Thirty percent.

"No matter which Hydra team advocates higher, faster, and stronger ideas. They will not be treated preferentially because they are different people, or it is because they are different people that their success rate is as high as [-]%.

"The pass rate of us ordinary people is less than [-]%. I am the luckiest one. I was selected to accompany the young lady since I was a child, and stayed with the young lady until she became a wife."

The Terrigen crystals used for the awakening of these aliens were all provided by Zed. In theory, Zed gave them a push and gave them a chance to walk on a single-plank bridge.

"Do they all know the situation?" Zed asked indifferently.

Hilde hummed:
"Well, they know. Although they won't have preferential treatment in the test, they have superpowers after all. This is their capital. Every alien who completes the training will be told the cruelty of the trial.

"Those who don't want to break through will be assigned to work in peripheral troops; those who are willing to break through will be elites if they succeed; those who break through but fail will basically die."

These aliens chose this path by themselves, Zed would not feel sad for them, but Hilde's words caught Zed's attention.

——Ordinary people without capital will not be told the cruelty of the trial.

"Sorry, Hilde." Zed supported Hilde's arm and turned her over, facing himself and said, "It's all in the past, the most important thing is to cherish the present."

"Ah."

…………

In the early morning, after scoring twice last night, Zed rolled over comfortably and got out of bed, opened the curtains, took a deep breath against the sun and sighed:
"This feeling is really refreshing! It's like wearing new underwear to welcome the new year's morning!"

"But you're not wearing underwear now." Hilde and Zed were able to take the initiative to make some jokes after they got along well.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you've learned badly too. It's time to get up, I'll open the space-time door to take you to the company." Zed turned back and walked back to the bed, playing with Hilde's black hair, and then grabbed the princess Picking up Hilde and walking into the bathroom...

After hastily eating breakfast, Zed opened the space-time gate and sent Hilde to the World Tree Tower.Although the time-space gate is very convenient and countless times faster than a private helicopter, Hilde was still almost late.

Zed also left the Malik Manor afterwards, and his first stop was Stark Tower.Coincidentally, just after Zed stepped through the time and space gate, he ran into Tony and Pepper making out.

clap ~ clap ~ clap ~
Zed applauded, whistled, and joked at the same time:
"Master Iron Man, who worries about the country and the people, actually has personal emotional needs. How unbelievable!"

After Pepper and Tony parted their lips, they greeted Zed and wanted to leave the office, but Zed stopped him:

"You don't have to leave, Pepper. You'd better listen to what I'm going to say next.

"Tony, Tony, why did you change your mind? Why didn't you persuade Peter to join you? Why didn't you persuade him to take off his mask?"

"Hmph~, I asked the question knowingly." Tony snorted coldly, but did not answer Zed's question three times.

Pepper looked at Tony and Zed with some concern, but Zed still said to himself:
"Because you are too soft-hearted. You want world peace, but you can't get rid of those villains with all your heart, and you can't sacrifice Peter to gain your political advantage."

"Enough!" Tony snorted angrily.

But Zed didn't care whether Tony was angry or not, and continued to add:
"The most important thing is that you are too short and thin. You can't bear the crimes and the pressure. You want to reduce your guilt through legalization, am I right?
"Tony, you can't be a lonely hero who walks silently with darkness on his back, and you can't be an innovator who will succeed forever. You are just Tony Stark, a playboy, a genius scientist, and a great philanthropist .As for whether you are Iron Man or not, it depends on yourself."

Tony suppressed his anger, raised his head and looked at Zed tentatively:
"What did you prophesy again?"

"It's not a prophecy, it's a lesson learned from history. It's an experience. You want the 'world peace' that humans haven't achieved for tens of thousands of years to be born in your hands. This is a kind of 'conceit', and 'conceited' ' To the extreme." Zed criticizes Tony relentlessly.

"Then what should I do?" Tony glanced at Pepper, and after being affirmed by Pepper's eyes, he looked at Zed with piercing eyes.

"It's very simple, follow nature. The Sokovia agreement is destined to be only a draft in your generation. Even the next three or four generations will be entangled with it. People paved the way." Zed became more and more like a detached wise man.

Tony was silent for a while and then nodded. As for what he should do, he had his own considerations. Suddenly Tony frowned and asked:

"Why do you speak so strangely now? After disappearing for three months, you look more and more like a magic stick."

"I went to an alien planet again, and ate half of the brain of the god. It will make up for it." Zed said calmly, as if explaining a trivial matter.
