After yelling, Benjamin calmed down. No matter what, things had happened, and they had to deal with the aftermath and look to the future.
"How are the rest of Team X doing...?"
"Darwin...oh, that is Oman." An official reported.
"Okay, I know their code names." Benjamin waved his hand impatiently for him to continue.
"Darwin is in a very bad situation now, not only physically, but also mentally. His current psychological condition is very bad. After he is out of danger, we will arrange psychological counseling as soon as possible. As for the beast... he was lucky at that time
He was not there, so he was intact, but he was also greatly stimulated... You must understand that they were civilians before and were not mentally prepared for this at all."
Benjamin took a deep breath, then smiled bitterly: "Well...at least we are not completely wiped out."
Then he shook his head, not intending to talk about this topic again: "What about our punisher?"
"Frank...his psychological quality has passed the test, but he seems very angry now and wants to find those terrorists." The official said immediately.
"Don't let him have problems! He is very important!" Benjamin said immediately.
At this moment, another official suddenly said hesitantly: "About those corpses of Team X... we..."
Benjamin immediately looked over sternly, with a very surprised look on his face.
"Do you want to make a fuss about the corpses of those warriors? Who gave you the courage?" President Benjamin covered his head: "Get out! You are fired! And Judy, remember the next time the White House recruits people.
, remind me, let the personnel department prepare the intelligence test! I don’t want to let idiots mix among my staff!”
The official was dragged out by the president's security in a state of shame.
Strictly speaking, even the President of the United States is not qualified to insult a person's personality in this way, not to mention that the person who can walk into this office at this time will not be simple regardless of his identity or background.
But no one in the room stood up to speak for this person, and no one accused the president of being too hurtful.
Because times have changed!
Look at the outside world, there are things happening every day that you couldn't even imagine before!
People with superpowers are no longer legends. Super villains and superheroes have long been fighting in major cities. Gods, demons, monsters, vampires and even aliens have appeared. If you still hold on to the old thinking
Here to do something... Haha, to be honest, this kind of idiot should take a rest early. Don't come out to cause trouble.
And put this question in the present.
It has been proven that there is a mutant terrorist organization with malicious intentions towards mankind, and the other party has the ability to raid any location in the world.
Under such circumstances, someone actually proposed to use the corpses of mutants close to the government who had died in the war to make a fuss... How stupid is this!
It's too late for them to win over those mutants now!
Doing what that idiot did will only make other mutants more hostile to the federal government!
Are you planning to give that terrorist organization a boost?
Now is a critical period to win over mutants!
So everyone thinks this guy has a hole in his mind.
Of course, maybe this guy has his own purpose, but no matter what the purpose is, this is not the time to mess around!
This kind of person must be killed!
Otherwise, the subsequent problems will be serious.
After the idiots left, everyone present, even if they had various reasons to be against mutants, understood what the general direction was. It was as if the top officials of the federal government really liked Nico? No! On the contrary, most of them
Most of the top executives are disgusted with Nico and even think that they are redundant. But for the sake of profit, they can become the vanguard to protect Nico's power.
Without him, it is due to interests.
Just like now.
"The bodies of those warriors must be properly buried and buried with state funeral standards! We must let the mutants who pay attention to us understand the federal attitude! Well, downplay their mutant status to prevent those messy organizations from inexplicably
Run out and cause trouble."
Doesn’t Benjamin want to study mutants?
Of course! No country leader will let this kind of power go. But that also depends on the timing. Besides, is there less research on mutants? After so many years, who has researched what? If so, why do we do so much?
Ugly? Many things can actually be done in more beautiful ways, and the purpose can still be achieved.
In short, there are many methods, why choose the simplest and crudest one? Even if it takes a little more effort! It won't cost much.
"The next step is to replenish Team X's personnel. I hope you already have backup candidates."
Generally speaking, a president would not pay attention to such specific things. There are so many things waiting for him to be busy. Now that Benjamin has spoken, it shows the seriousness of the matter.
"Yes... we already have backup candidates, and we decided to second the strength of the Shadow Bureau to defend Washington."
"No!" Benjamin said dissatisfied. As a force directly under the federal government, there is no problem for the Shadow Bureau to defend the Special Zone, but if the Shadow Bureau's power is allowed to shrink, it means that all their initial investment will be in vain!
This is Benjamin's political achievement. He plans to separate any part of this power during his term, and cannot allow SHIELD to dominate. If the Shadow Bureau shrinks, will his work be in vain? Birds leave their voices, and people leave their names.
Every president hopes to leave some noteworthy political achievements during his term of office.
Benjamin is no exception.
"But the threat of the Hellfire Club is right in front of us. In a short time, we..."
Xin Guadanzi's fate is right in front of him. Even if he recruits a new batch of potential mutants, it will be of no use. Should he ask for help again?
Why did they form their own superpower team? Isn't it just to avoid this embarrassment.
Benjamin thought about it and finally made up his mind.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I'll do it." He opened the drawer and took out his personal phone.
Then dial.
The result...is a busy signal.
Benjamin was a little embarrassed, so many people were watching!
So I changed my phone number and it was that person's office phone number.
This time someone answered, it was a female voice.
The secretary picked it up.
I heard that the president was very polite, but he still reluctantly told Benjamin that the director was not here.
But the other party still gave the director the number of the housekeeper.
The president made an embarrassing third call.
This time someone picked up.
The butler was very polite but told him it would take two minutes.
Benjamin felt like his face was burning. Damn it, he was the president looking for someone, but he couldn't find the right person three times, and he was still waiting on the other side!
But what can he do?
This is not the time to lose your temper.
After a while, the other party called me.
"Kay! You bastard! What the hell are you doing?! Why are you picking up the phone now?!!" Benjamin roared in a low voice immediately after answering the call.
Kai was confused there: "Of course I have my own things to do, and I'm not your secretary. I need to be on call 24 hours a day."
Benjamin also knew that he was a little reactive to the country, but... so many people were watching.
"Okay, no need to explain. I need your help!"
"Help?" Kai asked curiously, "What help?"
"You know about the previous attack on the Pentagon, right?"
"I know, Frank asked me for help, but I'm in New York and won't be able to make it for a while. So I asked a friend of mine to come over."
Kai said honestly. As for saying that friend was Hannibal, he didn't mention it, and Benjamin also had a tacit understanding not to say it. Everyone knew that if there was a chance, the federal government would definitely capture Hannibal. On this point
, no matter how good the relationship between Benjamin and Kai is, it will not change. After all, the big bosses who can influence the situation in the federation are not too young.
If you can restore your youth... you may not be able to do anything.
That is to say, Kai himself has a strong foundation, and most people would not dare to pay attention to him. Otherwise, Kai would have been arrested and tortured by the old family members.
"Well...Team X suffered heavy losses...So, I need to help introduce some trustworthy people to reorganize Team
The words are sincere.
It's a pity that Kai was not moved. Just kidding, who is Benjamin? The president! To put it bluntly, he is also a politician. Only those who can believe what he says are ghosts.
"I'm sorry, Benjamin, I can't help you."
"you……"
"Yes, I know a lot of similar people, but Benjamin... you are the federal government! You know, your reputation in the eyes of such people is not good... well, it should be said to be very bad. After all, these
Over the years, you have established some inhumane mutant research projects. Those mutants did not become anti-government elements, not because they were patriotic, but because they could not afford to offend you. Now you want them to work for you...
…That’s unconvincing, Ben.”
Kai didn't hide it, he told the truth.
"I know, we did have some misunderstandings with mutants before." Look, these are politicians, they treat mutants as guinea pigs and study them in slices. Others can say it was a small misunderstanding without any hesitation. "But I
We are working to change this reality, so we need more mutant brothers to join our cause. We can reach consensus on some aspects and change the reality that mutants are discriminated against."
He was obviously asking for help, but he said it as if he was thinking about them.
"It's useless for you to tell me this, Ben. I am not a mutant, and I am not in the same circle as them. I can be friends with them, but it is impossible to change their views. Even in the eyes of more mutants, I am the government
I'm a lackey, and it's even more impossible for them to believe me." Kai was silent for a while before saying.
He didn't lie. Mutants have their own circles, and they are usually very broken and hidden. For example, Logan never knew Charles. In order to hide themselves, these mutants usually do not reveal the fact that they are mutants, unless they have mutant characteristics.
It's extremely obvious, otherwise it would really take a lot of effort to find the mutants.
This also makes their circle extremely exclusive. Not to mention trusting Kai as a police officer, even Captain America cannot be trusted casually.
Kai didn't think there was anything wrong with Benjamin using mutants.
After all, isn't this what the world is like? The most tragic thing is that it has no use value.
Although most of what Benjamin said is nonsense, one thing is true. If you want to change the status quo of mutants, you really need to rely on the government. Emotionally, Kai is happy to see mutants join the so-called Project X.
But the problem is, what he said really doesn't count.
After all, the few mutants he knew, not to mention Logan and Tank, lived in seclusion in pursuit of peace, so Kai had no reason to disturb them.
Psylocke and Bishop were living a happy life in Los Angeles, and they occasionally made guest appearances as superheroes to help Barry fight criminals.
There seems to be no reason to do anything under the nose of the federal government.
As for contacting other mutants through them... come on. Again, they don't trust Kai.
At this moment, a phone call came in.
Coincidentally, the call came from Logan.
"Wait a minute, I'll take a call."
Benjamin almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. Please, boss, I am the president! Give me some face.
But Kai didn't care about this. He directly transferred the line to Logan's phone and left Benjamin aside.
When he heard the busy signal that suspended the call, Benjamin wanted to hang up directly. But after thinking about it, he decided to wait patiently. He was not lacking in patience. After all, according to Kai, when it came to mutants, their federal government was in a very bad situation.
Wonderful. If things continue like this, the Hellfire Club may actually be able to create a mutant resistance army.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then the fun will be great. The federal government was not destroyed by aliens, but ended because of the civil war.
"Logan? Why do you have time to call me?"
Kai and Logan both have each other's phone numbers, but they are not little girls who like to talk on the phone. They basically don't contact each other. It's enough for everyone to understand some things. The friendship between real men does not need those messy things to maintain.
.
"Frank called me." Logan said little as before. "I know what happened."
"So?" How old is Logan? Naturally, he can't ruin his life just because of his passion. Kai doesn't quite understand what Logan means.
"Frank wants me to help him."
"Huh?" Kai was stunned. Frank actually asked for reinforcements? How rare.
But Kai quickly reacted and Logan called him...Does he want to go out?
"You want to help him? Think clearly, Logan, it's not easy for you to live a peaceful life now." In today's information-rich society, once exposed, it will be difficult to return to that peaceful life.
"Keira...that Emma is suspected to be Keira's sister." Wolverine was silent for a moment and then said.
"Who?" Kai Zhen didn't remember who Emma was, but Kai La did know that she was the undercover agent assigned to Logan by Stryker. As a result, by some strange combination of circumstances, the two really fell in love. But because of Shi
Trek threatened Keira with her sister, and Keira had no choice but to give in. However, Trek was later killed by Kai, Logan, and the others. Then the lovers finally got married.
However, Keira's sister has never been found, but it is certain that Keira's sister had escaped from Stryker at that time.
But Kay forgot her sister's name.
"Kyla's sister is a rare multi-power mutant who can transform into a diamond form and is also a telepath. It just so happened that the woman who had the same ability among the attackers yesterday, Keira suspected, was her sister Emma
."
"Uh... Okay, I probably understand what you mean. Have you thought about it?" Based on Kai's understanding of Logan, he really would not stand idly by in this situation. Maybe Logan has experienced all kinds of things in the world.
But the deep friendship in my heart has not changed.
"By the way, Tank... also wants to come out and do some activities."
"Fake! Why is he joining in the fun?" The reason why Tank came out is simpler. Frank and Logan are both his friends! That's why Kai is angry. You are so loyal at this time! It's not good to live your own life.
What?!!
"That's it! I'll trouble you next!"
The phone has been hung up!
"Fake! Tank! You bastard!" Finally came the voice of that bastard Tank!
This is to kill first and then show off, and why do you want him to deal with the aftermath?
He understood what Tank meant. This guy just wanted to be able to wander around without exposing Guardian Town, and still be able to return to his old life after wandering around.
What a beautiful thought!
But... in this increasingly dangerous world, it doesn't matter if they come out.
As said before, mutants need to integrate into this world.
After sighing, Kai saw that Benjamin was still alive, so he said directly: "Ben... I have two friends who are willing to help, but there are conditions."
Since the federal government wants them to contribute, how can it do nothing?
Kai will naturally help to obtain the conditions that should be fought for.
