After Stark finished speaking, the room was silent for a while.
"You mean Nick Fury, the black commander of SHIELD, is now missing?" Mr. Fantastic asked.
"Yes." Stark's face was serious, "This is originally confidential information, and you are not supposed to know it. But the situation is really serious, and everyone here is not an uninvolved civilian, so I will tell you directly...
Yes, Fury is missing. For those of you who don't know him, I can say this, Nick Fury is the most careful person I know.
Hell, he can be a pain in the ass sometimes, paranoid and muttering about 'split management', but he's a really cool guy. And now that he's missing, there are only two possibilities I can think of.
sex."
Stark paused and looked worriedly at the picture displayed on the projector in front of him.
"First, maybe he has been solved by the enemy because the enemy judged that he would be a huge threat to the infiltration plan. Second, maybe he has not been solved, but he did notice something. He felt that the situation was not a good one.
, so he wanted to seize the initiative, so he lurked."
Stark's speculation did make sense, but Richard chose to believe in the latter possibility.
Luo Dan is a really cunning old guy, and he doesn’t fall down so easily. According to his memory of the big event "Secret Invasion", Luo Dan is indeed the first person on earth to detect the alien conspiracy. He went into hibernation early
Get up and wait for the opportunity to counterattack.
"Okay, SHIELD is finished, I understand that. But I still don't understand why you are telling us this, why are we the people." Black Panther said.
"Because all of us here are different," Stark said. "If you think about the power we have, the resources and wisdom we have, we should shoulder the responsibilities that match those.
The government is not good at dealing with aliens, and there is no army specially set up for this. So when facing alien invaders, we are the best army on earth, and we must find a way."
"So you just called us together, because the forces we each represent together are the Earth's defense line?" Richard raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." Stark nodded, "We are destined to achieve great things, and we will become the protector of the earth. It's not just this one incident. Before this, the duties of superheroes, including the Avengers, were to fight and
Defeat the enemy, but why can't we do better? We can resolve the crisis in advance and nip the enemy in the cradle before it appears.
We are good enough, so we have to do it better than anyone else. We fight, we solve problems, no one else in the world needs to know that the crisis happened, and no one needs to know that we fought, that's why we exist
.”
Several people present began to think deeply, and seemed to be seriously considering his proposal.
What Stark said was indeed what most of the people present thought. Black Panther, Mr. Fantastic and Doctor Strange all have a common characteristic, that is, they all agree that they are superior to others. Stark's words spoke to their hearts,
They do feel that they are different, so now they are seriously considering the feasibility of this proposal.
Robbery, theft, street shootings and other petty troubles are not within the scope of their management. That is the work of street heroes and policemen. Geniuses like them disdain to meddle in such nosy matters. What they want to do are all earth-shattering things.
Preventing crises that can shake reality and destroy the world is what they should do.
Richard was speechless for a while and asked: "Let me guess, are you planning to name this small elite group the 'Illuminati'?"
Stark was stunned: "I haven't thought about this yet. But the name sounds good... let's call it 'Illuminati'."
Richard: "..."
Okay, it's really the Illuminati.
"Sounds good, then come on, everyone." Richard waved his hand, flipped the hem of his windbreaker and turned around to leave.
"Wait... wait, where are you going?" Stark stopped him.
Richard shrugged: "Go home. Sorry, but I'm not interested in this gathering. As I said before, I'm not the kind of person who is suitable for group activities, so I still passed."
"You'd better think about it again." Stark still didn't give up, "This is different from the Avengers. You said that organizations will always deteriorate and will always be restrained, but the 'Illuminati' will not, because from the official level
Say we don't exist at all. The purpose of our establishment is to solve problems and act as guardians without people knowing it. The government will never know..."
"I understand what you mean." Richard interrupted, "But I'm just not interested. But I remember what you said about the aliens, and I will find a way. Then it's okay.
If it’s something, that’s it.”
Then without waiting for Stark to say anything else, he opened the door and walked out.
Join the Illuminati? Just kidding, isn’t that a big brain?
Others don't know, but Richard, who was a comic fan in his previous life, knows everything about this organization known as Marvel's biggest laughing stock.
These geniuses are arrogant and think that they can solve problems with their superior ability and intelligence. However, looking at all the achievements of this organization since its establishment, it seems that they only cause trouble... and make bigger troubles...
..
Yes, the Illuminati, a group of leaders and geniuses who came together to form a group, actually couldn't achieve even one achievement like "stopping a bank robbery".
Moreover, in the original work, the leader of the Inhumans, Black Bolt, and the world's most powerful brain, Professor Charles Xavier, were still involved. Now, the Illuminati in this time and space has no future without these two generals.
Richard still remembers one of the funniest times. The Illuminati generals secretly followed the Skrull battleship coming to Earth and slipped into the Skrull main battleship, in front of the Skrull leaders.
He said harsh words, saying that if you dare to invade the earth, don't blame us for being rude to you!
Then...then all of them were captured alive by the Skrulls for human experimentation...
Yes, the whole thing is like a group of comedians...
Richard turned around and left without hesitation. Stark was still a little frustrated. After all, he knew that in terms of combat effectiveness alone, this man could beat all of them. If he didn't join, half of this small group would be useless.
"Okay, what about other opinions?" he asked.
"I think we can put the establishment of the team aside for now," Black Panther said. "The top priority right now is about what you just said about aliens infiltrating among us."
Stark thought for a while and felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded: "Okay. Who has any ideas? I welcome everyone's opinions now."
