I'm a party

Chapter 106: Calm

In the bloody battle with the Chita warriors from another world, he was able to survive with the help of a miraculous power. However, at this moment, the country to which he had sworn allegiance almost turned the blood of him and his family into dust. This kind of pain was so heartbreaking that he was almost crazy.

"Hahaha~!" The man suddenly grabbed his hair, laughed wildly, and pointed at the sky. "You are all guilty, and you must pay with your lives!"

There are so many people in the world who are filled with grief and anger. After World War I, the city of New York was reduced to ruins, and the population dropped to two million. Millions of lives were lost, and rivers of blood flowed. And those who were able to stand had lost their loved ones.

The people of New York, who were already in endless sorrow, were so angry that they could hardly control themselves when they heard that their rulers had betrayed them.

At this time, Lu Yifang and the others stood on the top of Stark Tower, watching the world change.

"Is this the opportunity you mentioned? Once the people of New York realize that they have been abandoned, they will also spit on those above them." Ross turned around and said to Lu Yifang, his image of a red giant having long since faded away.

"Therefore, General, you need to step forward at this time and give the light of hope to those in despair!" Lu Yifang said with a smile.

"What should we do?" Ross's eyes flashed. Although he had a plan in mind, he also knew that as a leader in public, if he could not defend the interests of his supporters behind him, he would be nothing but a grass.

"The mutant human race has been oppressed for a long time, licking its scars in the dark corners, and now it has finally emerged under the light. Is there anything in the world that is more tempting than freedom?"

"That's absolutely impossible." Ross heard this and shook his head decisively.

"If New York wants to be independent, the United States will not sit idly by and a war will break out. What's worse, because of what happened to the United States, other countries will be more cautious about mutant humans, and the place where we live will become even worse."

"I never imagined that I could achieve success overnight. If I rush for quick success, I will suffer the consequences. I know this." Lu Yifang smiled and waved his hands. "What I want is the autonomy of New York. Although New York belongs to the United States in name, it is actually economically and politically independent. The mayor is elected by the people of the city and is only responsible to the people of New York. What do you think?"

"This proposal is still feasible." Ross pondered for a moment and finally said.

He had expected that after the nuclear explosion, the United States would be in an awkward position. In order to appease the public anger, violence was not an option. The remaining four powers might be able to ease the storm by cold treatment and public opinion guidance. However, as the center of the incident, the United States could not avoid it. At this time, the president and his think tank must be racking their brains over how to deal with the two million mutant heroes.

Therefore, if there are sufficient conditions, the interests of the mutants can be satisfied.

"Now that you agree, please get started." After Lu Yifang finished speaking, he jumped down from the building and rushed towards Professor X.

Lu Yifang knew that the professor was tired, but this was not the time to rest as he still had important tasks to complete.

If he could convince that person, the mutants would have a huge advantage. Lu Yifang knew this person's character very well. He was extremely radical and would not hesitate to turn an energy source that could destroy the world into a weapon in order to protect the human race.

Fury sat alone in his private room. The desktop video was interrupted by the electromagnetic waves from the nuclear explosion, but he didn't care. He closed his eyes and seemed to be in deep thought, waiting for something to happen.

A red light flashed, and Lu Yifang, Professor X and the Red Devil appeared side by side.

"As expected," Fury opened his eyes, looking calm.

"I thought your reaction would be more intense. After all, meeting each other is not what you want." Professor X said with a smile, and Lu Yifang pushed the professor's wheelchair to the other side of the table.

"There's no need to worry here. This room is equipped with a device that can monitor my mood. If there's any unusual movement in my heart, the bombs hidden in the walls will explode instantly." After Fury finished speaking, he cast a deliberate glance at the Red Devil.

"You can't escape its speed."

"Don't be angry. We are not here to seek trouble, but to seek cooperation, just like last year. We need Nick Fury, the Director of SHIELD, just as Director Fury needs us." Professor X said sincerely.

"Cooperation? If you really regard me as an ally, how could what happened today have happened?" Fury slammed the table with an unhappy look on his face.

"I was completely unaware of your actions. When I was exhausted dealing with magic, alien artifacts, and Hydra, I suddenly realized that the troubles caused by my allies far outweighed the former. In order to resolve this dilemma, I even fell out with my superiors, the World Security Council of the world's five most powerful countries. This was done by my loyal comrades."

"We all have our own secrets, Chief Fury." Professor X remained calm in the face of Fury's criticism, because he knew that if he was really angry, Fury would have walked away long ago. This black-faced but even more black-hearted Chief Executive was just using this as an excuse to bargain.

The professor was happy to help others achieve their goals, so without waiting for words, Lu Yifang understood what he meant, took out a USB flash drive and threw it in front of Fury.

"What is it?" Fury took it and asked in confusion.

"With all the information about X-crystal research and development, mass production of X-crystal will no longer be a dream within a month," Lu Yifang explained.

"This thing... is for me?" Fury took it, his face full of disbelief, as if two giants were negotiating at a table, and one of them suddenly threw out a land deed and said, "Our headquarters is giving it to you for free."

"Director, the current situation clearly requires us to deepen our cooperation. This is the sincerity of the mutants, do you think it is enough?" The professor continued with a smile, his brows revealing three parts of warmth and seven parts of insight.

"What do you want?" Fury said, and quietly put the small USB flash drive into his pocket. This sincerity, can it be described as "enough"? Fury secretly speculated whether this was a sudden blessing? Of course, whether there was a crisis behind the blessing, it still needed to be explored in detail.

"What I want is also what you want in your heart." The professor looked at Fury deeply with a profound gaze, and his words revealed deep meaning.

"As a witness of the first interstellar war of mankind, you should be well aware of the huge gap between the technology of Earth and the other side. It will take years to catch up. If the alien forces attack again, how can our race protect ourselves?" After saying this, Fury did not respond immediately, but quietly held the USB drive in his hand. To strengthen humans, what else can be faster than awakening the X gene? The human body is fragile. Whether it is the noble Asgardians, the fierce Chitauri, or the demons of hell, they are naturally strong and far beyond the reach of humans.

However, the goddess of fate favored humans and gave them the X gene. After awakening their superpowers, mortals can also stand shoulder to shoulder with gods. There is no doubt that an evolution of all mankind has quietly arrived. And the human race, which is far more prosperous than Asgard, will surely usher in a vast blue ocean of civilization development. At this moment, this potential is in Fury's hands.

The professor and Lu Yifang know what Fury is thinking. And what the mutants are looking forward to is the world full of superpowers. If the world is afraid of us, then the fear will turn into recognition, making mutants the majority.

No one in the world is better suited to push this plan forward than the Director of SHIELD. Nicholas Fury, a man who has devoted most of his life to the welfare of mankind, is willing to do anything radical to protect civilization. Fury can even come up with such a crazy idea as forging the Cosmic Cube into a weapon to protect the world, let alone the more feasible popularization of superpowers?

"Is this the bargaining chip you gave me?" Fury woke up from his deep thoughts and smiled.

"That's right, Director Fury. We will be your strongest support." The professor responded enthusiastically, not worried about Fury's promise. No one in the world can deceive him when facing him directly.

"As for how to proceed, I think you are more experienced than me."

Fury did not answer, but his dark smile revealed his intention. The first step is to distribute the secret of X-crystal and many finished products to the five permanent members. In the interstellar war, the importance of mutants is self-evident. This will inevitably trigger an arms race, and the number of mutants in various countries will increase day by day.

Furthermore, it can trade with regional powers, from which S.H.I.E.L.D. draws resources from each country and becomes increasingly powerful.

In addition to the X-crystal, the technology lost by the Chitauri is also in the hands of the mutants. In their hands, it is just trash, but in Fury's hands, it is not... Is Fury a fool to provoke a war with countries around the world? What he needs is a top-down change, not a bottom-up revolution.

Things are not always smooth sailing, but the trend of supernatural powers spreading across the world is unstoppable. How many people in the world can resist the temptation of supernatural powers? Even ordinary people can't do it, let alone those who hold power?

With superpowers everywhere, the current system will inevitably collapse. What Fury needs to do is to make S.H.I.E.L.D. accumulate strength and reputation before that happens.
