Which one is better if the officials are forced to die together [Comprehensive British and American]

"And then?" Howard asked quickly, "It's just suppression? Suppression is temporary. The most important thing mutants need to solve is the problem of ability riots. Will the simple suppression ability fail after a certain period of time, or will it cause more intense damage?" The energy riot is still unknown."

"No, the 'inhibition' I mentioned has already solved this problem." Hank said softly, "And the potion itself is actually the result of some kind of mutant ability, I just extracted some frequency waves of that ability , and inject them into potions."

"No wonder you just told me that. Are you not afraid that I will find out who the mutant is and take him away by force?"

"You can't do it." Hank said lightly. He seemed to be irritated by Howard, but he couldn't say anything to refute. He just packed his things and whispered, "You didn't test me. Yeah, I don't know what's going on here."

Howard shook his head, "I don't have much interest in mutants. Back then, someone proposed the 'Weapon X' plan to create mutants with powerful attack power and train them into weapons. I was the one who insisted against it. I've never been a fan of projects like that—the Captain America story is inherently tragic. I'm more interested in Superman."

Hank gave a short laugh and said, "You can't catch Superman."

This sentence made Howard's eyes sharpen.

"Why? Are you so sure?"

"It's okay to tell you." Hank said coldly, "As we all know, Superman has almost no weaknesses. He can fly, and his five senses are beyond human imagination; Damage his skin. He can cool and heat, and both of these abilities are so powerful that he can freeze an entire forest on fire in a few breaths, and he can also melt the satellite tracking him in an instant-this is What he's done, we all know it's just a show of ability and a little caveat."

He can also fly in space without protection, no need for air, no fear of cosmic radiation, Howard thought, he glanced at Hank, not sure if people who are close to Superman and mutants know this.

But he didn't remind either.

After visiting Hank's laboratory, it was very late, and Hank took him to the school cafeteria. They ate a little leftover fried chicken and pizza from dinner, and finally Hank took him back to the room.

"What's the matter, Angela? Are you happy recently?"

When passing by a small garden, Howard heard an extremely gentle and magnetic voice.

He still remembered that little girl, Angela, who was quite unique even in Xavier Academy, where weirdos often appeared.

Never take the initiative to talk to anyone, never take the initiative to do anything, always stay quietly in the corner during class, and find a sunny place to sit silently during after-school activities. When she looks at you, It will also give you the feeling that she is not looking at you at all.

But this extremely quiet little girl is very popular in the academy.

The students were happy to greet her, even if she just looked at them blankly and nodded slightly.

She will not be surrounded by the middle during the dinner, but everyone will never forget her. The eyes of the students always look at her intentionally or unintentionally, and then look back, continuing to play happily.

In terms of character, Howard really couldn't find anything special about her, and at Xavier College, there are many reasons for her popularity, one of which is her mutant ability.

She must have some special, indispensable ability that makes her position so special in the academy.

Howard actually didn't have any malice towards the mutants, and he didn't plan to spy on their inside information, but a top scientist always had a strong curiosity, so he stopped subconsciously and looked towards Angela.

Professor Hank also stopped, and he did not stop Howard.

Howard met a pair of blue eyes as vast and warm as the sky, and almost as soon as he locked on to each other, the owner of those eyes realized his gaze, straightened up to look over, and smiled at them.

"Good evening, Mr. Stark." He said in a calm and powerful tone, "Long time no see, Hank."

"Long time no see, Superman. I'm about to send Mr. Stark to his room, which is the one next to Angela. If you plan to send Angela back, why not send Mr. Stark along the way?"

"Howard is fine." Howard said quickly, trying to look at Superman with an unobtrusive gaze.

After a very short period of aphasia and shock, he quickly came back to his senses and quickly understood that this was an excellent time to get close to Superman and understand Superman.

To be honest, Howard was a little grateful to those who sent killers to hunt them down.

If he hadn't been hunted down and sent to Xavier College by Karl, Howard knew that he would never see Superman in a short time.

Even though he was over fifty, he had to admit that he would hold his breath in front of this body, because it undoubtedly embodies a kind of pure bodybuilding.

The lean and slender neck and the tip of the collarbone below the neck are exposed, and more places are blocked by the red cloak, but this does not prevent Howard from seeing his almost perfect shoulder-to-neck ratio; The well-defined eight-pack abs undoubtedly contained extremely terrifying power; Superman, he stood on the ground, his legs were strong and powerful, and Howard could see the abnormally standard full muscles underneath through the tights and his standing posture.

Many times people don't associate strength with beauty.

But as a scientist who is proficient in mechanics, Howard knows very well that a truly powerful weapon often means harmony, symmetry, and precision, and a physique that meets these three points undoubtedly shows a powerful beauty.

"Hello, Howard." Superman seemed oblivious to his slightly over-the-top gaze.

He's probably used to it too, Howard sneered, after all Superman has been flying around the world wearing similar tights for more than five years.

When he first appeared on stage, his clothes were obviously not so close-fitting and tight, but in recent years he has been overdressed more and more, like a clothing showroom.

Maria even saved several pictures of Superman flying!

Speaking of this matter, Howard was very angry. He no longer stood watching from a distance, but approached the two generously.

Superman didn't do anything extra to his approach, he just looked at him with a smile, the little girl named Angela stood beside Superman, holding Superman's arm with one hand, looking up at Howard's face.

Howard, who was still slightly tentative in his movements, suddenly felt a little stupid for doing so.

He let it go completely, and strode over to Superman, saying, "You're just here playing with the kids? Nothing else to do?"

"There are always too many things to do, and things are never done." Superman said, "Playing with children is also an important task. Sometimes it is even more important than saving the world and salvaging your best friends."

Howard's face darkened immediately: "What do you know?"

"I don't know anything." Superman replied calmly.

He bent down and hugged the little girl in his arms. The movement was no different from hugging a cat in a trance. Angela seemed to be used to being hugged like this. She found a comfortable position and sat. Holding her, he made a please gesture to Howard with one hand.

"Please, I'll take you to your room."

Howard squinted at Superman for a moment, then followed in Superman's footsteps.

"We have been looking for you and tried to contact you, but you have never responded to us." He tentatively asked the question, "We thought you were very disgusted with the government, but not as serious as Magneto."

There are not many public superhuman forces now, and the Brotherhood of Mutants and the X-Men are the most eye-catching. Therefore, when it comes to "anti-government" superhumans, Magneto will always be used as an example.

"I don't hate the 'government'. I just hate the small group of people who actually control the government now, the few people who only know how to control, conquer, and never think that their means are against humanity." Superman said, he His voice is as unhurried as his footsteps, "If the people in the White House can be smarter, I will be very willing to cooperate with the government."

"Your words sound very sincere, but your behavior is not like that." Howard said, at this time he is no longer himself, he is a representative of the government and one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D. A modicum of respect for the government."

Superman stopped in his tracks, turned around and faced Howard, "I respect some people because they did something worthy of respect—whether there is a government handwriting behind the mutant experiments, I think you know more than I do." Clear. I don't respect governments because they don't deserve respect. They don't deserve human beings at all."

Howard managed to maintain his face under the pressure of Superman's direct gaze and did not retreat. He really had nothing to say about Superman's accusation.

Yes, although he looks like a government official when talking to Superman, in essence he can't understand some people's actions at all, let alone some people's fanatical attempts to control all superhumans in the palm of their hands the behavior of.

Howard never denies that the power of the government is always greater than that of individuals in order to maintain social order, but let's see what the high-level officials have done to make the government more powerful than individuals.

Inhuman experiments, terrorist activities, making top-notch weapons and then killing the weapon makers; policies that imply oppression and discrimination, vague political and ideological propaganda, arbitrary manipulation of public opinion and people's thinking... and so on There are countless things, and it is difficult to convince yourself that these people are pursuing the peace and stability of the country.

Their actions were obviously out of the fear of being weak in front of superhuman beings as powerful people, with a very clear panic and hatred like a dog jumping over a wall, from which Howard did not see the slightest calmness and self-restraint as a superior.

As Karl complained, the US imperialist government in this world is the most stupid government agency.

European, Asian and other countries can maintain a good balance between abnormal people and ordinary people, only the US imperialists can't do it.

Superman was still looking at Howard, and the people he watched felt cold sweat all over their backs. Superman was still far away from him, and he didn't show any malice, but he still couldn't control his fear.

That is the most instinctive fear, the instinctive awe of a small human being in front of a behemoth.

He felt fear, and what followed was a psychological and physical desire to attack.

Yes, human beings have the instinct to surrender in the face of fear and great power, but human beings also have the instinct to go forward bravely in front of the vast universe, and the instinct to destroy the powerful and powerful when they are oppressed. Most people have the instinct of the former , but a very small number of people, like scientists and rebels like Howard, ignited the wild fire of conquest and destruction in their hearts.

As for Superman, his existence itself is the oppression of human beings.

It is very inappropriate to think so, but at this moment, Howard sincerely understood why the US imperialist government is so stupid.

Whether it is a mutant who can manipulate the earth's magnetic field and invade everyone's brain, a legendary god who exists in another dimension, a secret country deep in the ocean, or a superman who has no weaknesses so far.

They are all too powerful.

That is the strength of science and technology on the ground that may have to catch up for hundreds of years, or nearly a thousand years to catch up and surpass it.

"Here's your room, right behind you, Howard," said Superman, who smiled slightly.

Howard couldn't tell if there was any emotion in the smile.
