Chapter 1,786 The changing situation

So next question.

Where is Om.

For now, both Kai and Mela agree that Orm is in Overlord! Because the thing is very simple. If Orm is not in Overlord, how did Overlord know where the Dark Trident is hidden?

So everyone's idea is very simple, go to the Overlord, retrieve the Dark Trident, and then bring Orm back.

As for asking the Overlord to hand over the artifact and Orm outright, it is probably unlikely.

Just do it.

Everyone immediately took action. At the same time, Kai notified the US government of the information about the Dark Trident, and urged the US government to suppress the overlords and prevent them from really using the power of the artifact. Otherwise...



The U.S. government acted very quickly. After learning about the Dark Trident, they immediately contacted the Overlord Government.

And we are sternly warned that once this artifact is used, it will cause unpredictable consequences.

The biggest consequence is that they will completely offend the Atlanteans!

It's a pity that the bully didn't care at all. In their view, it is not difficult for the United States to obtain the intelligence. The relationship between the two countries is so close that there are people on both sides. Politicians and officials in the United States who are pro-the bully really

not too much.

You must know that their influence is definitely not limited to the United States. According to former U.S. intelligence officer Girard, this has become a "global phenomenon." There will be a well-organized and well-funded organization in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Western European countries.

Ample lobbying organizations stand ready to protect their interests.

More than ten years ago, two famous American international relations scholars, John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walter, wrote a study titled "The Bully Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy." However, they could not find any

A media outlet that was willing to publish his work could only publish it in a British magazine. "The huge influence of the bully lobby in the West relies on its ability to not allow people to talk about them." The American MintPress news website commented.

.

The two American scholars wrote in the book that the reputation of this lobbying group in Washington circles is "fearsome." A US congressional staff member once told journalist Michael Masin: "We can count more than half of the members of the House of Representatives

——250 to 300 people who will do whatever AIPAC (you can check this organization online, I won’t explain it here) wants them to do." Former AIPAC official Steven Rosen also used an example to illustrate the lobbying organization

He placed a napkin in front of New Yorker reporter Jeffrey Goldberg and said, "In 24 hours, we were able to get 70 senators to sign on to it."

AIPAC has been famous for many years. 20 years ago, it was ranked second among Fortune magazine's "Most Powerful Lobbying Organizations in Washington." Today, it is generally considered to be the largest and most powerful Israeli lobbying organization in the United States. In 2015, it was used in the United States

Yu Qin spent nearly $4.19 million in lobbying money, of which AIPAC accounted for $3.388 million.

However, it can be said that it is not easy to get in touch with this well-known group. The headquarters of AIPAC is a newly built modern building located on H Street in Northwest Washington. The security at the entrance of the building is very tight, and even the employees of the organization work every day.

All entry and exit must go through security checks. An AIPAC employee told the Global Times reporter that the organization originally rented office space in a building, and later built its own building due to "confidentiality issues."

》The reporter contacted AIPAC many times for interview matters, but received no reply.

AIPAC's lobbying method is not through direct donations to politicians. During the presidential election, the organization does not clearly state who it supports. Instead, it mainly focuses on publicity work. In terms of lobbying members of Congress, each lobbyist has a specific division of labor, such as

Time magazine once reported that Asekoff, a member of the organization, was responsible for lobbying 14 senators and 65 representatives.

Overall, AIPAC's lobbying expenses are not high in the United States. It spent $3.602 million in 2016, ranking only 134th among 3,741 lobbying organizations. In comparison, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's lobbying expenses in 2016 exceeded $100 million.

.

Although the money does not seem to be much, in fact, it is only a superficial amount. The real benefits are in private. No one can tell how big these benefits are.

In short, it is enough to know that the relationship between Little Overlord and the United States is very close.

But just as forces interact, while Little Overlord is closely connected to the United States, there are also many people within it who are also connected to the interests of Americans.

Therefore, although the Little Overlord tried his best to keep this secret, he still did not feel that he could completely hide it from the United States.

But the overlords still said nothing about this. The reason is very simple. They don’t know what the Dark Trident means to Atlantis. To them, what the United States said is more like a threat, trying to get them to surrender.

A magical weapon.

But how could the little bully do this?

Although the Little Overlords are closely connected to the United States, it does not mean that they are really a family. In fact, even if they are as close as a family, it is useless.

They are two independent individuals. Regardless of whether the Overlord is dependent on the United States, it is impossible to actually hand over the artifact. What's more, they are just like a 'family', not a family, and their interests are not exactly the same.

Especially at this stage, with the rise of new energy and the Middle East's importance to the United States further declining, the United States' need for the Little Overlord has also begun to decrease rapidly. The reason why it still sides with the Little Overlord is entirely due to political inertia.

, the powerful influence of the Little Bully in the United States, and religious reasons.

I won’t explain much about the religious reasons, but there are many interpretations on the Internet.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It can only be said that at this stage, the interests of Lao Mei and Xiao Bawang are definitely inconsistent!

So how could the Overlord give his artifact to the Americans?

That's what they use to save lives!

Then the United States was perfunctory.

To be honest, the Americans didn't really have any bad intentions this time, and their starting point was good. But the little bully didn't give him any face, and the old beauty was very angry, but he still spoke sincerely.

But the little bully has one attitude - no, fake, don't bother!

There is no way, the White House trusts Kay's intelligence, because Kay has proven that he will not talk casually. But the problem is, the bully doesn't trust it.

In the final analysis, it is still the same sentence, we are not a family, and trust is too luxurious.

Nothing has been pulled out from either side here.

Then something big happened.

War is coming.

The war came very suddenly.

Countless corpses of marine creatures suddenly appeared on land. What's even more awesome is that these things can actually move on land. Although it looks a bit strange, the scene is really very scary.

A group of messy corpses of sea creatures, carrying an unparalleled stench, rush towards you in a mighty manner, making everyone tremble.

This scene is really terrible.

The Little Overlord defeated the northern resistance forces in one fell swoop!

That's called a devastation.

Soon the front line advanced to the pre-war level, and they even considered going deep into the enemy's country.

At the same time, a very, very powerful middle-aged man appeared in the Little Overlord Formation. His whole body was wrapped in black energy glowing with green light, and he held a pitch-black trident in his hand. Every time he waved it, he could cause huge damage.

Not only that, he can also control a kind of green flame. These flames are very terrifying. Once any living person is contaminated by this flame, his skin and flesh will immediately melt, and finally he will become a shambling zombie.

More importantly, this thing cannot be extinguished with water!

Some of the resisters didn't think about it, and directly carried out beheading operations to kill the guy holding the black trident.

But it's no use. Not only is this guy inferior to weapons and weapons, but he's also extremely powerful. Even thermal weapons can't kill him.

They tried using rockets to focus fire on him and blow him to pieces. But even this could only seriously injure him, but he would stand up again soon, and his trident could absorb the lives of others.

Help him recover!

Soon, video materials of this war appeared on the desks of leaders of various countries.

Now everyone couldn't sit still.

On the one hand, it's because the overlords' actions are so anti-human. They cause too much damage while advancing. These guys are completely crazy. No matter whether they are unarmed or not, there is no exception in their eyes!

kill!

This has caused many countries that originally supported the bully to once again undergo a moral trial.

In the past, although the bully was shameless, he would still cover it up.

But what about this time?

They basically fight with open fire and show no mercy!

This has dumbfounded those countries that previously supported the Little Overlord. Why the hell are you even too lazy to pretend?

Another point is the power of artifacts!

Who doesn’t covet this stuff?

Kai obtained Asgard's artifact back then and gained his current reputation.

After all, Kai never said where his power came from. After all, according to investigations by various forces, Kai was an ordinary soldier before and later became a policeman. He had no special abilities either before or when he started working as a policeman.

But after getting Asgard's artifact, he suddenly became the strongest superhero.

How can this prevent other people from mistakenly thinking that they are all artifacts?

Of course, if they look more carefully, they will find that Thor is no match for Kai. Doesn’t Asgard keep the best things for its own people, but gives the best things to outsiders?

Of course they also have some opinions on this.

That is, Kai's artifact is Odin's artifact, and Odin is naturally stronger than Thor.

There's nothing wrong with that.

In short, when they saw that anyone on the Little Overlord's side could kill everyone with a magical weapon, how could they not be tempted?

To be honest, they have long been envious of someone like Kai in the United States.

Apart from anything else, Kai took action to solve many problems that the government could not solve.

What's more, if the artifact falls into their hands, they can naturally control it. This is equivalent to having power in their own hands. Although the United States has Kai, Kai does not take orders from the government. In many cases, the relationship between the two parties is equal. What's the matter?

It all needs to be discussed.

Do you think the Americans are happy to see this happen?

of course not.

No matter what kind of power it is, as long as it is not in one's own hands, it is meaningless and on the contrary very dangerous. Indeed, Kai is very happy with the US government now and is not willing to participate in many things, but what about the future?

Who can guarantee that Kai will never change.

For example, one day, Kai suddenly felt that this government was too rubbish and he wanted to be a dictator!

Who is going to stop him?

Who can stop him?

Are Americans not afraid?

I'm absolutely afraid. The politicians in the White House are definitely trying every possible means to restrict Kai. But for a while, they have no other way, so they can only survive...

But now the Little Overlord has this magical weapon... They feel that they can't deal with Kai, but they still have no problem dealing with the Little Overlord.

Don't take the little bully too seriously.

Others don’t understand. Those national leaders don’t understand?

As long as the method is appropriate, the little bully will have to bow his head.

Then soon, the pressure from various countries came to the little overlord.

In those countries in the West, if you want to say that they have any integrity, you really think too highly of them. They have done so many rogue things over the years.

Let’s use an analogy.

Carbon tax!

The people who invented this thing are absolutely geniuses. They demanded a carbon emission tax be levied on the world and even set carbon emission standards.

For example, how much carbon emissions can your country produce in a year? If it exceeds, then give money.

Who do you give money to?

For those countries that protect the environment and have no industry.

So who are these countries?

Of course, it is those developed countries that have carried out industrial adjustments and transferred all their industries to developing countries.

Whose tax is collected?

Of course it is those various industrialized developing countries!

What the hell...Environmental pollution is of course caused by industry, but who was the first to start destroying the environment and engaging in industrialization?

These are the Western developed countries!

As a result, they are the ones who collect taxes, but the ones who pay taxes become latecomers... In other words, they damage the environment the most, but they do not need to be responsible for it, while other countries that want to develop have to spend free money.

Spend your money to 'compensate' them!

The most important thing is that they also set a cap for each country on the maximum amount of carbon emissions it can produce in a year.

This is a literal restriction for all developing countries.

It’s not that you can’t develop, it’s that you can only develop within the scope they set, not beyond.

In other words, these developing countries will always be their leeks. I can only cut them off, and you are not allowed to escape my control.

This is purely about treating people as fools. The most shameless thing is that these people are still making comments in many countries to intimidate those who are sober.

For example, a very famous reporter and host in my country.

This guy was on the show, gnashing his teeth at a sober scholar and wishing he could bite that scholar to death who had opposing opinions!

As if sober people shouldn’t exist!

This is the moral character of these countries.

So they can do anything!

A second ago, he was still supporting the little overlord and didn't care about the life or death of the local people. Even though he said he was compassionate, he still had no shortage of help at hand.

But the next second, they turned into messengers of justice and began to attack the aid recipients...

They said both the pros and cons of co-authorship.

Faced with such pressure, the bully just pretended to be dead and didn't respond at all.

What kind of massacre, what kind of artifact, I don’t know, it doesn’t exist, it’s all fake!

Anyway, just one sentence, don’t look for me!

Now those scoundrels are not happy!
