As their current advantage grew larger and larger, there was no doubt that their original fear of the Avengers had already been replaced by excitement. The topics those official agencies discussed in meetings were becoming more and more aggressive, to the point that even the conservatives thought the radicals were being too conservative.
In the discussions among these official agencies, it was as if the Avengers had already been successfully broken apart by them, each Avenger reduced to their wage slave or experimental subject, helping them achieve their ultimate goals.
As for why these official agencies were so confident, naturally, they had cards to play. After so many years, no matter how good the Avengers' secrecy measures were, the Avengers' identities had long since been exposed.
Especially after the Doomsday incident, Lex Luthor had obtained a large number of secrets about the Avengers, which also allowed more official agencies to learn the Avengers' background.
In fact, it was not only the Avengers' identities. Even the identities of Robet, Kara, and Clark were no longer secrets. That much could be seen from the fact that someone had already gone to Robet and Kara's home earlier, preparing to take The Kents and The Danvers away, and even wanting to take Alex as well.
It was just that, because the Avengers had been so powerful before, and because public opinion had almost entirely stood on the Avengers' side, the official agencies had no way to threaten the Avengers through such methods, nor could they use public opinion for themselves.
If the official agencies had made the Avengers' identity information public before the Avengers' reputation collapsed, then even if some people with ulterior motives bore malice toward the Avengers' families, they still would not have been able to cause the Avengers too much trouble.
