The Finale Is Near

At the Los Angeles Police Department, an obese Black man looked at the warden's report, his face turning green.

In just two days, that old man took turns beating up seventeen or eighteen people inside who were "interested" in him.

And it's said that the smiling guy even used a mop to help the three unfortunate kids who were clamoring for revenge to have their bowels emptied for free, and now they're all still lying in the proctology ward.

Furthermore, before S. H. I. E. L. D. could even demand their S.H.I.E.L.D., the BSAA Foundation and Stark Industries' rogue legal team had already whitewashed them into harmless lambs.

A certain cunning politician even used the gas explosion as a pretext to pressure the Los Angeles police department, ultimately getting Kevin, the "victim," out first.

Looking back, these guys haven't had a moment's peace since the first day they arrived in Los Angeles. Gangs, drug trafficking, and brawls are like children playing house.

First, the attack on the Southern Botanical Gardens Expo, which killed 42 people and implicated many wealthy businessmen and government officials, remains an unsolved case to this day...

Secondly, the entire Cyberdyne Systems building was blown up, and the top management was wiped out. Even more devastatingly, the head of Stark Industries was assassinated, and Doctor Bolivar disappeared...

Then, mutant attacks occurred frequently in various places, and the conflict between humans and mutants intensified. At the height of the conflict, the manor where the X-Men were staying suffered a gas leak and exploded...

Every time I run into this old man at the scene, it's the worst I can ever imagine. With so many problems piled up, you call that an accident? Are you kidding me?!

The police chief felt a throbbing headache and almost had a blood vessel burst.

Lately, in order to clean up the messes left by these troublemakers, his once-plump belly has shrunk by a third. All the detectives who wanted to find out the truth and get promoted have been sidelined by him, who played the bad cop.

If everything ended here, even if he lost ten pounds from starvation, he could quell the controversy and continue to gain weight.

But for some reason, the Black chief had a premonition that this was just the beginning.

Perhaps, in the future, aliens might invade Earth, Los Angeles might fall, there might be a nuclear war between the US and Russia, or even the end of the world in the next second.

Thinking of this, the Black sheriff immediately felt his heart race and his blood pressure spike. He promptly took out his blood pressure medication from the drawer and skillfully swallowed it with warm water.

I can't live like this anymore!

Meanwhile, in a hidden coffee shop across from the police station.

Kevin and the cunning Warren reached an agreement, and after repeatedly confirming that the area was safe, they cautiously got down to business.

"Mayor Warren, you abandoned Steve and got me out first, you must have something to say, right?"

The commander pondered for a moment, then slightly opened his eyes, gently placed the spoon he was using to stir his coffee on the edge of the saucer, sat up straight, and looked on with an attentive expression.

He understood that this was a politician who wouldn't act without self-interest. Since he chose this method to avoid Captain America Steve, who had intricate connections with S.H.I.E.L.D.., there must be a reason why he had to do it.

However, the situation was urgent, and Kevin didn't have time to play games with the Old Man, so he simply Door Opening.

Michael Warren's brow unfurrowed; he was quite pleased with his former partner. Talking to smart people was effortless.

Immediately, the mayor of Raccoon City clapped his hands lightly, and Aiden Pierce, dressed in a mask, trench coat, and baseball cap, carrying a laptop, slowly walked over.

"During the attack on the Southern Botanical Gardens Exposition, my convoy was also intercepted, including two T-800s..."

"Luckily Aiden was there, otherwise what you're seeing now would just be a puppet..."

Recalling the previous close call, Mayor Warren was still shaken, and therefore relied even more heavily on Aiden Pierce by his side.

Kevin remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he felt a sense of relief and a glimmer of hope.

Since he knows the name T-800, then this unassuming Mayor Warren should know something about [Judgment Day].

Therefore, at least for now, they are not enemies.

"Aiden is a genius hacker who, through the still-intact chip in the T-800, traced the information back to Cyberdyne Systems..."

"Actually, before you blew up Cyberdyne Systems, he successfully infiltrated that building once..."

"Fortunately, we obtained some useful information that hopefully will be helpful..."

Aiden Pierce maintained a calm expression throughout, never mentioning the life-or-death crisis he encountered during the infiltration. He simply turned on his computer and showed Kevin the heavily encrypted files.

The Hydra Legion logo at the top is quite eye-catching, but most of the content is about the nesting of the [Skynet] Logical Algorithm by the Thought Network, and the description is quite convoluted and difficult to understand.

However, when the file was scrolled to the center, the term "Arnim Zola Algorithm" and photos of a series of Super Hero, including Iron Man, Hulk, Hawkeye, and Black Widow, came into Kevin's view.

This is... Project Insight! (From Captain America 2)

The so-called "Project Insight" refers to the use of big data and the Zola algorithm to identify individuals who pose a threat to Hydra from among the world's 7 billion people, ostensibly for the prevention of potential crime.

Then, using satellites to lock onto the target and with the help of S.H.I.E.L.D..'s space carrier, the threat was completely destroyed!

The only problem is that searching and deducing Hydra's enemies from a global population of 7 billion is a massive and tedious task.

After all, predicting the life trajectories of everyone worldwide and determining whether they pose a threat to Hydra would take at least a hundred years if done by manpower alone.

Therefore, Hydra urgently needs something crucial to shorten the processing time for big data.

Artificial Intelligence... Hatsune Miku... Red Queen... Skynet!

Everything connected! Kevin suddenly realized.

He finally understood how the Thought Network on the island of Toko City was connected to the Red Queen and Skynet Project...

Hydra needs advanced Artificial Intelligence to perform the calculations for "Project Insight" and to "screen" the global population.

The first attempt was with Hatsune Miku... but it was undoubtedly a failure, resulting in nothing more than a bizarre and incoherent "Thought Network".

Just then, the "Skynet Project," heavily supported by the military, came into the view of Hydra.

This is like a pillow being delivered to someone who's about to fall asleep.

Therefore, Hydra members, who had long been deeply rooted in the U. S. military and political intelligence agencies, immediately decided to "borrow a chicken to lay an egg" and merge "Project Insight" and "Thought Network" into Skynet.

Ultimately, they will use the military's research findings to take control of intelligence agencies and carry out a global purge!

In that case, all the pieces of the Skynet Project are now complete...

"This time, you've been gone for so long, it's my turn to make a move!" Kevin smirked.

P. S.: Thank you everyone for checking in. I never expected so many people are still following the book. I need to work even harder.

Chapter 254, Section 268: The Finale is Imminent

If we compare this game to a match, then we've now passed halftime.

Cyberdyne Systems has fallen, leaving only the clueless auxiliary company, Hammer Industries. Once Tony returns to New York, that idiot will be thoroughly humiliated.

In the mid-lane, where the most intense close-quarters combat occurred, the YoRHa Unit kept disconnecting, with players AFK at the fountain.

Kevin, who was originally scheduled to jungle and set the pace, had no choice but to bite the bullet and drag his fledgling Avengers and [Skynet] into a stalemate in the mid lane, while BSAA, the support player, stayed behind to watch and prepare for any eventuality.

As for the original damage dealer Mutant School, it failed due to version nerfs and weapon restrictions, and was rendered powerless by public opinion and the military's "Sentinel Project".

Even more critically, the opposing Hydra, who had been farming and developing in the jungle for a long time, not only gradually infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D.., but also almost got their hands on the Big Dragon buff Aerospace Carrier.

To break the deadlock, the Mutant School must remain undefeated, even if it cannot provide assistance.

So, after much deliberation, Kevin finally decided to hire someone to play for him!

Simply put, it's time to drag S.H.I.E.L.D.. and American politics into this mess...

Thinking of this, the commander smiled slightly at Mayor Warren, revealing details about Hydra's "Project Insight".

Michael Warren frowned deeply upon hearing this. He truly hadn't expected that Hydra had infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D.. and prepared such a grand gift for the world.

"Since the military is the instigator of Skynet Project, and the Red Queen seems to exist solely to execute Project Insight, then they must be plotting something with Hydra!"

After Kevin learned that the unlucky guys in the military had run into trouble, he didn't hesitate to smear them and, in the process, exonerate the mutant forces.

"For Project Insight to be executed perfectly, in addition to the synchronous satellite constellation, the Aerospace Carrier, and the Artificial Intelligence system, the Terminator and Sentinel Robot, which form a complete group combat system, are also indispensable!"

"The mutant riots in various places happened too coincidentally. After the conflicts escalated, the government's credibility weakened, and the military was able to take advantage of the situation to perfect the Sentinel Robot' replication of the X-Gene!"

"Now, even a transcendent organization like S.H.I.E.L.D.. has long been infiltrated by Hydra, and the last stronghold that extinguished the beacon has fallen..."

Michael Warren, though looking grim, took a few deep breaths and composed himself.

But Kevin, who had already fanned the flames, naturally wouldn't stop there; his fox-like eyes narrowed slightly.

"The military and Hydra are entangled, not only controlling S.H.I.E.L.D.., the intelligence agency, but also trying to get involved with Hammer Industries and Stark Industries..."

"Once they've eliminated all their rivals and turned their attention to Congress and the states and cities, who will stand up for you?"

"Moreover, with the US military spending increasing year after year, and after cutting into businesses, who can guarantee that Queens, New York won't see Night of Broken Glass scene unfold?"

Upon hearing this, Michael Warren abruptly stood up, his face turning ashen.

It's not impossible...

Hydra was once a staunch loyalist of the Third Reich, a powerful military force. Whether it will destroy humanity without the control of intelligence agencies and the government is another matter.

After dealing with the most enthusiastic mutants, this group of extremists who clamor for "Nazi bloodline theory" will surely set their sights on their old enemies—the Jews.

In American politics, these Jewish elites essentially constitute the core of the nation's operation, and are also the driving force behind the global financial storms on Wall Street...

Therefore, mutants must be protected no matter what! Otherwise, the military and Hydra might target other people of color or Jewish people next!

But then, Michael Warren slumped back down, looking somewhat helpless.

Having already clashed with the military after the Raccoon City incident, he would never stand idly by if given the chance to kick someone when they're down.

But if it comes to openly and fairly challenging the entire military system, he is simply not qualified.

In an instant, Mayor Warren's gaze fixed on that face, and everything seemed to return to the basement before the outbreak of the Biohazard Crisis.

Kevin glanced at his fingernails and answered casually.

"The judiciary should legislate to recognize and guarantee the civil rights of mutants, and prohibit any human experimentation targeting them..."

"Politically speaking, as long as you pass on the information about the military's collusion with Hydra, those Jewish descendants who fled to America from all over the world aren't all dead..."

"If you're still worried, I'll have someone remind Nick Fury, the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.. You should go see President Adam Benford..."

This unfortunate president was a ruthless individual in the Biohazard Crisis universe who dared to expose the truth about the Raccoon City massacre... (though he ultimately died).

Moreover, due to a series of questionable actions in recent years, the military's credibility has been largely exhausted, and it still has some credibility externally, relying on the might of the White Eagle.

Domestically, they remain a junior partner under the dual pressure from intelligence agencies and Jewish business and political elites.

Besides, Three Mile Island was the place where Wolverine and others were Oldest One modified and the "Weapon X Program was carried out. The human experiments there were something that couldn't be exposed to the light of day.

As for Doctor Bolivar's disappearance, the collapse of Trask Industries, and the exposure of the Sentinel Robot, these will all be attributed to the military.

"As soon as possible..."

Kevin told Michael Warren about the Three Mile Island issue, and seeing that he hesitated, he spoke in a low voice.

Mayor Warren, who had tasted success in resolving the Raccoon City crisis, naturally knew that if the mutant protection law were successfully implemented, his political capital would appreciate again, making it worth the gamble.

After watching the two get up and leave, Kevin stretched and smiled slightly.

Successfully fooled them!

In fact, he understood better than anyone that the military idiots were just convenient scapegoats.

Since Skynet dared to step into the limelight, secretly cooperate with the military, and incidentally even tricked Hydra, who thought they could control the situation.

Then I'll guide the government departments and S.H.I.E.L.D.. to gain reputation with you guys!

Now, the Sentinel Robot program has stalled, the Mother of New Humans remains unknown, Hammer Industries is on the verge of defeat...

Afterwards, Hydra and the military will be too busy to help themselves once government departments and intelligence agencies intervene.

Your current power is nothing more than a blazing fire and adorned with beautiful flowers.

Once mutants gain legal status, they'll have the time and resources to teach your underdeveloped Terminators and Sentinels a lesson.

If you want to win, there are only two turning points left: the president's speech and the Mother of New Humans...

But do you really have a chance?

The commander, who had driven his opponent to the brink of defeat step by step, stood at the window, watching Steve walk out of the police station's main entrance, and a smile crept onto his lips once more.

P. S.: I've finally figured it out.

It basically took into account all the forces in the United States, and used Project Insight to connect to the third volume.

Currently, almost all the variables have been mitigated.

The military's path to promoting Skynet Project has been blocked.

Project Sentinel has been halted.

Hydra's Project Insight was aborted ahead of schedule.
