As a person who knows Iron Man well, Allen has no doubt that if this guy didn't have Pepper around, he would most likely transfer his consciousness to a computing machine and then build a body of steel.

Never underestimate the madness of a genius scientist!

This is the experience he has summarized after traveling through countless worlds, and even includes some of his own personal experiences.

In fact, everyone has some terrible thoughts hidden in their bones that they don't even know about.

But for the vast majority of ordinary people, these crazy ideas are firmly bound by legal, moral and emotional factors.

In addition, I do not have the means to fight against the police, the army and other state violent organs, so naturally I am wasting away bit by bit.

This is why, more than 80% of the people who suddenly obtain Superpowers overnight will choose to take the path of villains.

Because from the moment they gain the power to fight against the police and the army, these crazy ideas hidden in their minds will be quickly awakened, and then they can't help but put them into practical action.

All kinds of dissatisfaction and anger that are squeezed out in daily life will also erupt like a volcano with the blessing of strength.

After all, a person's self-control ability often does not depend on himself, but on the surrounding environment, status, wealth and power.

Generally speaking, people with higher social status, greater power, and more wealth tend to have poorer self-control.

Because they don't need to control at all, they can use countless methods to directly destroy the people who offend them.

Things like law and morality are basically just wipes in the eyes of these people.

Use it when you need it, and throw it away when you don't need it.

In the same way, people with great power will not be willing to be bound by law and morality.

Even a "perfect moral person" like Captain America still refuses to sign the agreement to accept government surveillance.

And among the Avengers Alliance, almost half of the people support him.

In contrast, Tony·Stark chose to sign because he believed that his wealth, technology and connections could solve all troubles.

To put it simply, the differences between Captain America and Iron Man are the epitome of how the upper class and lower class view US Government.

The attitude of the former is one of doubt, suspicion and distrust.

Because US Government has too many criminal records and is not worthy of trust at all.

The latter's attitude is one of compromise and cooperation.

Because he can use the resources at his disposal to play this political game with US Government.

Just when Allen was hesitating whether to hand over the core technology and data of "Supreme Intelligence" to Tony·Stark, and the possible consequences of handing it over to the other party, the elevator made a ding, interrupting his thoughts.

Under the leadership of Coulson, the two of them worked together and soon arrived at a certain Secret Base located underground.

The corridors along the way were filled with seven or eight fully armed, fully automatic AI robots as guards.

It is foreseeable that if anyone wants to force his way in, unless he can withstand the continuous attacks of energy weapons, he will be beaten into pieces in minutes.

In addition, many ongoing experiments can be seen in this base.

Several of them are magic apprentices trained by Iron Man.

Some of them are busy making some magic props and equipment, while others are trying to understand and control magic energy in more detail under the monitoring of a series of instruments.

Obviously, International Security Council has made up its mind to separate the rights and responsibilities originally given to S.H.I.E.L.D. to prevent the situation of one company becoming dominant.

After all, S.H.I.E.L.D., which was established to combat Hydra, was penetrated by Hydra like a sieve, and almost changed its name to Hydra S.H.I.E.L.D..

This kind of naked humiliation is intolerable to even the most powerful countries with any self-respect.

Soon, after a series of strict and complicated identity confirmations and checks, the two finally arrived at the new International Security Council office.

Looking at the five old men sitting on chairs wearing different styles of military uniforms, Coulson took a deep breath, took the initiative to step forward and said, "As you requested, I have brought him here."

One of the old men immediately nodded with satisfaction. "Well done, Director Coulson. Do you know? Compared to Nick Fury's approach of hiding everything, even bullying, I prefer your honesty. Keep up the good work! If the reorganized S.H.I.E.L.D. can prove its worth, then I don't mind doubling next year's budget."

"Thank you very much."

Coulson had a signature smile on his face, put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly.

Although he has a good-natured character, he is not a fool and would not believe the obvious nonsense of doubling the budget next year.

In fact, his requirements are not high, and he is content to keep the current budget without further cuts.

After the simple greetings, Coulson quickly turned around and walked out of the room.

Because he knew that the following conversation was not something he could listen to.

After all, with a director as powerful as Nick Fury, the major powers on Earth have long had enough, so they have begun to tighten their powers and take control of the situation personally.

As the room door banged, Allen immediately asked expressionlessly, "What do you want to talk about?"

"Let's talk about the destruction of the Kree Empire first. I'm very curious as to how you and your companions destroyed such a powerful advanced civilization." The leader of the old man took the lead in making the request.

There were no formalities or beating around the bush.

The straightforward style of a soldier is clearly reflected in him.

"I think there is nothing to say about this. If I want, I can destroy more than ninety-nine percent of the civilizations in this universe at any time, whether it is Kree Empire or Skrull Empire. Of course, Shi'ar Empire may be a little more troublesome. For us, destroying Kree Empire is just a trivial little game, nothing more. There is no need to make a fuss."

Allen shrugged his shoulders and said words in a very calm tone that made everyone present's heart beat wildly and their breathing quicken.

To be precise, in Marvel Cinematic Universe, the so-called three Rider countries and advanced civilizations are basically like background boards.

There are so many powerful heroes and villains who can pin them to the ground with blasters.

Although many people have ridiculed the saying "the rich rely on technology and the poor rely on mutation", but at the top of the power level, who relies on technology?

The answer is none!

The power of Thor and Odin comes from their bloodline of Asgardians, the power of Hulk comes from an accident and angry emotions, the power of Captain Marvel comes from the blood of Space Stone and half of Kree, The power of Ego comes from his special life form, the power of Scarlet Witch Wanda comes from the Chaos Magic born from the combination of Mind Stone and Pluto Hisoka, the power of Thanos comes from the blessing of the Eternal Titans race and six Infinity Stones...

In the face of these unreasonable forces, the advantages of science and technology have been greatly weakened, or even have no effect.

This is why, although Allen has been collecting various technologies, he has never relied too much on it and always puts improving his hard power first.

silence!

Terrible silence!

Suddenly, representatives of the five most powerful countries on Earth all began to rethink their relationship with this ally.

In other words, how much restriction can that signed agreement have on the person in front of me?

If it had been before, they would have thought that with Sorcerer Supreme Ancient One around, they could limit it to at least 50%.

But after learning that Kree Empire, one of the three Rider countries in the universe, was destroyed so easily, it felt like someone poured a basin of ice water on it in the dead of winter, freezing it from head to toe.

Because they don't know anything about magic and other Superpowers, they really can't imagine that Sorcerer Supreme can completely wipe out Empire in the universe like Kree Empire, which occupies countless planets and vast spaces, in a short period of time.

So after exchanging glances, another old man tried again. "So what's going on with this newly established Empire? Are you planning to leave the earth, so you want to seize a piece of territory?"

Allen sneered and shook his head, "No, of course not. I promised Sorcerer Supreme that I would fulfill the obligations of an ally. Unless I leave this world, I will not leave the earth. As for the Kree Empire, you can understand that It was too boring, so I wanted to find something to do to pass the time. Of course, if you feel that you can control Sakura's unruly Burning Legion, I can leave this Empire to International Security Council to manage."

Control a universe Empire?

Hearing these words, the expressions of everyone present changed differently.

Some people showed vigilance, some people showed dignity, and some people showed naked and unabashed greed...

Let the earth and mankind become the rulers of a universe Empire. Is there anything more exciting in the world than this?

Not to mention anything else, the advanced technologies and endless resources alone are enough to make these high-level people in human society excited.

Appreciating the reactions of these people, Allen pursed his lips slightly with a trace of unnoticeable amusement, and said straightforwardly, "If you have such intention, then please form a Earth United Government as soon as possible. Remember, I It does not refer to a dispensable loose organization like United Nations, but a true human union with a central government and unified laws. Only in this way can you be qualified to join Empire."

"We will immediately convene an emergency meeting to discuss this matter. Finally, thank you for your continued help."

After saying this, the five people immediately pressed the button on the table, and the elevator immediately under their buttocks started immediately, sending them directly along the passage to an unknown place.

Obviously, since Alexander Pierce killed five representatives, these successors have adopted military-level security measures.

There are even separate secret passages for entry and exit.

Just a minute after they left, Coulson pushed Opening Gate in and asked with a smile, "How was your discussion? Those representatives didn't ask you any strange questions, right?"

"No. I think I really wanted to scare them." Allen spread his hands indifferently.

"Scared?" Coulson keenly grasped a key word.

"Yes! The psychological endurance of these high-level officials may not be as good as I imagined, and they also lack enough motivation to lead mankind into the new century. In this case, I can only give them a little temptation and pressure." Allen said with a pun.

This is also what he is most dissatisfied with Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The earth has obviously been exposed to so many external civilizations and has acquired countless advanced high technologies.

But what's the final result?

It turns out that all the brooms are hidden and used only by departments engaged in special tasks, rather than being developed and utilized on a large scale.

In this regard, Kree's original decision to concentrate the entire race's efforts on researching Skrulls spacecraft technology was hundreds of steps ahead of human decision-making.

"I hope there won't be any trouble." Coulson whispered with a worried look on his face.

You must know that the last time Future Technology Symposium divided the pie, Hydra grabbed countless advanced technologies from it. The current proliferation of energy weapons around the world is the best proof.

In addition, he was also full of distrust and anxiety for the batch of magic apprentices trained by Tony·Stark.

Because after breaking away from the supervision of their mentors, these young people are not cautious about magic at all. Instead, they are like a group of lunatics who have lost their minds. They continue to strengthen their own power through so-called "scientific methods" to make their magic more powerful and destructive.

To put it simply, they are all developing in the direction of "battle mages" without exception.

I simply don't understand that the real power of magic is never its pure destructive power, but its mysterious and unpredictable means.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Coulson.

Because International Security Council has separated magic-related threats from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s functions, he, the director, can only watch now, and he is not even qualified to offer opinions.

In this way, the two people quickly left the Secret Base, which was located at least several hundred meters underground, took the latest model Quinjet with its own invisibility function, and went straight to the current headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D..

Coulson can't wait to find out what that Obelisk is, and why Hydra wants to take it away even at the risk of being exposed.

Similarly, Allen is also very much looking forward to seeing what interesting changes will happen to Quake Skye's body and genes after inhaling those mysterious crystal dusts.

Was the so-called Inhumans created by Kree, or did they just happen to discover some secrets hidden in the human body and then develop them in their own way.
