[Comprehensive British and American] The Sims

The Avengers Building was established by Tony Stark. At the beginning of its construction, as a landmark building for the Stark Group to enter the energy industry, reactors were used for energy supply from the very beginning. Even if the power supply system of the entire city is completely paralyzed, Here too there is nothing to worry about.

As the headquarters of the Avengers Alliance, the Avengers Building has extremely complete strategic reserves and security facilities, so it is imperative that after the outbreak of the zombie virus, the Avengers Building has become a security center where people gather in New York City.

Because of this, although this building was located in the center of the city, there were not many people in it. For the first time in its life, it was in danger of being overwhelmed.

This is unprecedented, and every corner of the entire building has been fully utilized.

From the first floor to the fifth floor is the refuge and living area for civilians, and the fifth to tenth floor is used as the working area to produce food and industrial supplies.

Above the tenth floor is the strategic area. The scientific researchers rescued from Lily not long ago and all kinds of elites in society have come in handy. These people gather together to provide opinions and suggestions for personnel allocation, defense construction, etc.

Continuing upwards is the scientific research institution. In the past, this was the playground of Dr. Banner and Stark in the Avengers. Now it is open to a large number of scientific researchers. Some of them research and invent various substitutes, some They are studying the zombie virus, hoping to make an antidote to solve this crisis.

And the superheroes who built and maintained it all gathered on the top floor of the building.

At the beginning of the zombie crisis, these powerful people re-chosen their own affiliation. Most of the 'heroes', headed by the Avengers, stayed in New York.

The other part chose to return to their original cities. Some of them returned to Gotham, and some returned to the metropolis to watch each other in their respective cities.

In the past three months, the zombie virus has spread rapidly all over the world. Because of this unprecedented global suffering, people finally no longer consider whether they are ordinary people or mutants, heroes or villains in the face of the crisis of genocide. The enemy had to stick together.

In such a crisis, Tony Stark maintained his usual high-profile and amazing generosity. The reactor energy network he created is spreading to the whole world, leaving people surrounded by zombies more ways of life.

People who originally lived in a peaceful world quickly established a new value system, and they burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm for power.

Those who have the strength to kill zombies and join the search team can often gain more respect, and those superheroes have been regarded as beliefs by most people.

Mr. Stark, who was already well-known to everyone, has further consolidated his reputation in this world with a new value system.

Not only has he not lit up the world yet, but he has already lit up the energy network of the entire United States, but also because of his robot team, they were originally created because of the sudden whim of Mr. Tuhao, but due to various reasons, they have been It was thrown into the warehouse for quick ashes.

After the zombie crisis, Tony Tucker quickly activated them. These robots have no flesh and blood, and are not the targets of low-level zombies. So these robots with the word "Stark" printed on their bodies blatantly shuttled around the city, While collecting supplies, he occasionally rescues a small number of refugees, and is even a master at repairing and building urban facilities.

'I alone kept world peace'

Mr. Stark, who is not very shameless, once said this in front of the national media in the court where he tried himself. Now, although he has not really done this, he has indeed saved tens of thousands of New Yorkers once again. With his little life, even under the siege of zombies, he alone supported half of New York.

Most importantly, because of the existence of Tony Stark, people saw hope for peace in the face of such a huge crisis.

So the arrogant playboy became famous for a while, and became a popular idol in the city.

Everyone loves Stark, nowhere more so than among the refugees on the ground floor of the Avengers Tower.

So when Tony Stark appeared on the ground floor of the building, the eyes of the refugees who huddled in the corner and gnawed bread were all bright. Just a few seconds ago, there were tears of despair on their faces. After Stark, these desperate and exhausted people seem to have regained their strength, and their whole people brighten up.

Mr. Stark, who brought hope, had a stinky face, although surrounded by friendly eyes, he still didn't look very happy.

He's been Mr. Unhappy for a while now.

Dressed in a dirty t-shirt and jacket, the magazine cover playboy, unshaven and disheveled, looked no better than refugees.

Although he looked extremely tired, Tony Stark was still strolling on the ground floor. He walked slowly, and carefully inspected the surroundings, as if to see how these people were doing.

There are still people who care about their lives, which makes people whose lives have been destroyed by zombies feel warm.

So they clustered around Tony Stark, like refugees clustered around their saviors, eager and humble at the same time.

One of them said, "Mr. Stark, it's great to meet you, your robot saved my daughter... Is there anything I can do for you? Anything."

Hearing this, Mr. Stark turned his head with a very bad face, and he looked at the middle-aged man who said this, and the young girl standing beside him who also looked at him with grateful eyes.

Because of excessive overdrawn physical strength, for a long time recently, Tony Stark, who sleeps less than two hours a day, paused for a while before he could distinguish what the other party was talking about among the noisy and noisy human voices.

...maybe it's a good idea.

He thought so in his mind.

Then he looked at the man and asked patiently, "Have you ever seen a girl who looks so tall?" He gestured for a height, then he glanced at the girl next to the man, and then said, "About her age, pink hair, green eyes, pale looking."

Everything else is fine, but pink hair?

This is a rare feature, so the people standing around the man immediately shook their heads, and the man who just took the initiative to talk to Tony said directly, "According to your description, if I have seen such a girl, I will definitely not easily Forgot."

He was right, Liliana Downers was not a girl who would disappear from everyone, in fact she was very conspicuous.

But Tony Stark hadn't seen the conspicuous girl for more than two months.

To this unsatisfactory answer, Tony nodded restrainedly, and then Tony began to ask some other questions, such as how these people live here, and what extra things do they need.

It seemed like he really came down specifically to ask people if they needed help, and the girl thing was just a passing question.

Although he pretended to care about people's lives, God knows he didn't even know the birthday of his assistant who had been with him for more than ten years.

After dealing with the crowd who needed love, the man who found nothing came back to the top floor of the building with a gloomy face. Since the zombie virus began to spread, this place has become a preparation center for day and night lunch breaks. Everyone looks tired and numb, helpless. Endless battles tire even the staunchest of heroes.

It's a pity that they don't have time to rest. Untrained ordinary people are weak in the face of zombies. Even a robot team controlled by AI can hardly win in the face of large-scale zombies, so heroes can't be lazy, they can only Stop and go to the battlefield in person.

In the midst of this weary crowd, one individual looked particularly different.

This is a well-dressed middle-aged man, he is wearing a neat suit without any wrinkles, his gray hair is combed very neatly, not even a messy hair can be found, a pair of blue-gray eyes see Tony Stark again He even showed a smile when he said, "Is the inspection going well? Mr. Anthony."

Recently, Tony Stark visited the entire building in the name of inspection. Although the ignorant people were really bluffed by him, as long as they knew a little about this man, they would know that inspecting this kind of time-consuming and energy-intensive Things are definitely not Stark's style, he is actually looking for someone.

The object he was looking for was, of course, Liliana Downers.

At this moment, the only person who knew Liliana's whereabouts was smiling and asking Tony if his inspection went well.

What else is there to say?

Mr. Stark didn't say a word. He walked to the only empty sofa and sat down. While resting, he checked the situation of the whole city through the monitor.

The last time Tony saw Liliana was more than two months ago. At that time, the two naive ghosts had another big fight for inexplicable reasons. The two broke up individually. Then Tony went to Gotham City to support Bat Xia, then directly moved to the metropolis, and was busy on and off for half a month, only to find out that Liliana was missing.

In this building, except for Liliana and her housekeeper, everyone else is like a lagging dog, struggling to the death in the vast ocean with a narrow boat, while holding on to the driftwood, but also trying to pull it. With the help of other people, everyone was so busy that no one paid attention to what cartoon the girl was watching today and what kind of snacks she was eating.

No one even knew when she disappeared.

Regarding her disappearance, Tony Stark himself said: At this time, there is no need for them to waste energy and time worrying about where the little girl is watching cartoons.

Anyway, she is safe, and now 60 billion people are not very safe, so there is no need for anyone to worry about her.

He said so himself, and he really thought so.

When he was busy, Tony was indeed able to run through his own thoughts, put aside those thoughts of Liliana Downers, and concentrate on thinking about how to save the world.

But as soon as he was free, even if he only had three or four hours of rest every day, that annoying little girl would start to make him feel uneasy.

So one time, after the robot revealed that Liliana was still in the building, Tony Stark started wandering aimlessly through the building.

It's a pity that until now, he hasn't seen Liliana's shadow.

And as long as Tony Stark didn't make it clear, Mr. Butler seemed to not know what he was looking for, and greeted him with a smile every day, but never mentioned his master, even a word.

Nick Fury has been watching with cold eyes. He knows in his heart that in a sense, it is a good thing that Liliana Downers does not appear for the time being.

Even, Liliana Downers no longer appears, which is really a good thing for human beings.

In just three months, Nick Fury has noticed many things from Mr. Butler. Although the other party has just put on human skin not long ago, this seemingly polite and harmless Mr. Butler has already tried his best to think of everyone. It shows what kind of existence he is.

Different from Liliana's inexplicable and unfathomable power, the robot butler's ability is visible to everyone. He is thoughtful, calm, and able to do a job with ease anytime, anywhere. The robot is powerful and thorough, and sometimes even Nick Fury would feel that he, or everything around him, was his marionette.

In front of him, whether it is a superhero, a politician, a scientist, or a rescued refugee, no matter who he is facing, the robot butler has always been polite, never making people feel contemptuous or embarrassed.

But all are under his control.

This is the first time that human beings have truly realized that they are also so weak outside of nature.

The terrible sense of crisis has never dissipated, but Nick Fury knows that this feeling is also what the other party wants.

That damn robot is running everything.

Under such circumstances, Nick Fury felt that as the controller of the robot, Liliana Downers had better not show up all the time.

However, his thoughts soon changed.

A few hours ago, I received a call for help. It was the edge of the city, and the surveillance system was not very easy to use. So Captain America, the Winter Soldier, and Falcon set off together, intending to go to the rescue.

When they left, they were flying Quinjet fighter jets, but when they came back, there were only two of them.

There was no plane, and the Falcon swooped straight through the window and crashed into the room.

The black soldier with metal wings on his back rolled twice from the ground to reduce the inertia of his direct rush, and then squatted on the ground, revealing the person he had been holding.

A human being who has been severely infected, his blue eyes already had some green light, the man with a strong physique struggled in the arms of his teammates, and then he looked straight up at the ceiling, There is no more action.

The moment they saw the face of the infected person, everyone gasped. The infected person was none other than Captain America, Steve Rogers.

Mr. Housekeeper stood aside, watching every move of everyone in the room almost gently. He knew in his heart that the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time had arrived.

"What's going on?" Tony Stark asked, jumping up off the couch, as he walked towards them. "Where's the Winter Soldier?"

The black soldier holding Steve Rogers with both hands raised his head, his solemn eyes and frowning made people feel uneasy, and sure enough, he said, "There is no one calling for help, this is a trap, we are ambushed Yes, the captain's injuries are too serious, and the Winter Soldier asked me to come back first."

After hesitating again and again, he still didn't say that his leaving was the last scene he saw.

He sees the Winter Soldier overwhelmed by zombies.

The scene was quiet, Falcon's words seemed to have stuffed a huge block of ice in everyone's throats, the chill stuck to people's skin and flesh, blocking their throats, and they couldn't make any sound.

Tony Tucker nodded, as if he really understood what the other party was saying. In fact, his brain was blank. As early as a month ago, he had noticed the incredible evolution speed of the zombies. At that time, he never thought that this day would come so soon.

"Tony?" Nick Fury looked at Tony Stark after regaining consciousness. In fact, most people looked at him. Tony was closely connected with the laboratory. Except for him, no one present could answer this question. Question: Can they save a deeply infected person?

And Tony Stark didn't speak for a long time.

There was nothing he could do about it.

Sensing his thoughts from the opponent's actions, Falcon suddenly shouted, "He is Steve Rogers, we all know what he is like, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will never give up, no one asks you to give up. Giving [-]% hope, not even half of it, as long as it is one tenth, he will give us all in return.”

Don't say one tenth, Stark knows that they have never had even one thousandth of hope here, and now their technology can only save mildly infected people with a certain probability.

Although it wasn't his usual subject, Tony spent a lot of time in this area after the zombie invasion, so the progress of his project was very clear.

Therefore, he felt despair more deeply than anyone else.

The research has just started not long ago, and the current progress has exceeded expectations. If the time is a little longer... Tony suddenly hated himself for taking three or four hours of rest every day. He should go all out in this area, instead of being like Give yourself some leeway now.

Everyone stared at him, hoping to find a trace of hope on his face, but in the end they could only follow him to despair.

The look on Falcon's face was becoming angry with desperation.

Just when things were going in a worse direction, Nick Fury suddenly asked, "You can always help us in critical moments, Mr. X," he looked at the man standing beside him, who had nothing to do with himself Mr. Steward said earnestly, "I beg you to help me."

"Oh," Mr. Steward made a look of surprise, as if surprised by his name being mentioned suddenly, but he quickly ended his performance and replied, "I understand that you are Steve Mr. Rogers is worried, but in some scientific fields, human beings have indeed lost some geniuses, and I express my regret here."

If all the geniuses with strange inventions gather here, maybe the other party still has a chance.

Although the robot beat around the bush in a tactful manner, people understood his meaning immediately.

According to the current level of human technology, they cannot save Steve Rogers.

"I can," the man in the red cloak came out from the corner. The former surgeon and the current mage looked a little irritable. He said, "Give me the Eye of Agamotto, and I can save him."

When he came to New York, Doctor Strange, who had missed a lot, didn't know much about many things, but he did know that this fancy butler was somehow related to the girl who took his gem.

Hearing what the other party said, Mr. Housekeeper smiled, and then asked, "Do you want to seek help from Miss?"

The not-so-good-tempered surgeon frowned, "I want to get back my own things. She stole the Eye of Agomotto."

"As far as I know, even in your organization, that pendant has never really belonged to you, just like the cloak behind you, they have only chosen you for a long time, but they It never belonged to you." The robot in human skin said gently.

Afterwards, the gray-blue eyes of the robot looked at the commander again, and said calmly, "I don't suggest you do this, Mr. Fury, if you are in danger of losing something, please ask Miss Liliana for help. At the same time, you will lose something more important."

He was absolutely right.

Everyone knows this truth. If you want to be independent, you can’t always ask for help in front of your mother. If human beings don’t want to be a little girl’s toy in a bottle, then it’s best not to always ask for help.

Knowing this, Your Excellency the Commander still looked at the robot silently, and asked suddenly, "I thought Liliana liked Steve Rogers."

Returning after a brief absence to find your beloved Captain America and the Winter Soldier dead is not a good feeling, even for Liliana Downers.

The robot should do everything in its power to prevent this from happening.

"My duty is to prevent my lady from being sad. She may not like the news of the death of those two gentlemen, but I have the responsibility to avoid greater risks for her. To put it bluntly, Mr. Fury, human beings are to my lady. It’s not much different from ants. I think you also know that some people may be obsessed with the social structure of ants, but they don’t have equal and rich feelings for ants. This is not the fault of ants, they just can’t afford it, and I don't want anything to upset the lady."

The muscles on Nick Fury's face twitched, then nodded silently.

This sounds unpleasant, but Nick Fury also understands this in a sense, and he knows that a robot will never express emotion or say some meaningless nonsense, since he is standing here now. Then there must be his purpose.

"So," Nick Fury asked with one eye on the robot, "I suppose you've got the best of both worlds?"

"Actually, this is Mr. Wayne's idea," the robot said calmly, and he pointed out, "For a long time, Miss Liliana communicated with humans through 'transactions'. Very good at form."

"Deal?" Nick Fury repeated in a low voice.

The robot nodded, and then offered them another option, "Actually, you can also directly get help from Ms. Liliana, whether it is Mr. Steve, or the zombie virus, or even make the earth no longer exist in hundreds of years. There is no threat from outside..."

Speaking of which, the robot paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "No matter what your requirements are, I believe the result will be satisfactory."

Nick Fury nodded, and he said blankly, "This is really a difficult choice, can I think about it after meeting Liliana?"

The robot said kindly, "Of course."

This is the first time that Nick Fury has hesitated to pay the price.
