Superman

Luke, who is staying in Washington, DC, does not yet know the news of a new member of the Hellfire Club, Atlantis and the mutants.

Although he has begun to search for Sebastian Shaw's whereabouts, it is more difficult to pinpoint the location of a mutant without Professor Charles and the brainwave augmentation device.

Artificial satellites will have to wait for the arms race between the two superpowers to be launched into the sky one after another.

What insight plans, global surveillance, put into this era, even science fictions dare not write like that.

As for contact with Atlansti, this is even more impractical.

It is almost nine years before the first nuclear submarine, the Nautilus, was launched.

At present, the maximum depth that humans can dive is no more than kilometers.

For an undersea civilization, this is a level that the door has not touched.

"So, technology changes lives."

Luke sighed silently.

The development of science and technology in this era is indeed a bit backward compared to the future of steel armor and spacecraft flying everywhere.

Therefore, he specifically urged Howard that he could temporarily put aside the research work of the universe's Rubik's Cube and shift the focus to the nuclear fusion reactor.

Fiddle with nuclear submarines, and then consider launching satellites-anyway, Skynet is doing communications.

In the future, if the Cree’s fleet invades and destroys his own satellite, let the accuser Ronan directly see what is Superman’s iron fist.

Luke's vision has always been far-reaching, he even wondered whether Howard would shrink the Ark reactor.

In the future timeline, Tony Stark's sentence "I am Iron Man" officially opens the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Instead of waiting until that time, Luke thought it would be nice to let Howard do it.

It's all a family anyway.

As for the problem of technical bottlenecks, I believe that it will be easy to solve the problem of visiting Wakanda first, and then establishing friendly exchanges and mutual assistance with Atlantis.

These two countries, together with the old rival of the Fantastic Four, Dr. Doum's hometown, Latvinia, can be called the place with the most black technology on the earth.

Not to mention nuclear fusion technology, any time and space shuttle, steel legions, and spacecraft can be integrated.

"General, there is Lake Akalia."

Stryker who was accompanying him said loudly.

The roar of the helicopter, coupled with the strong air current, forced him to do this.

"What a nice place."

Luke looked down from mid-air, and the tall concrete dam stood among the dense snow-capped mountains.

"This was once an industrial area, which was abandoned during the Great Depression. Later, it was picked up by the military and bought it in the name of building a dam."

Stryker explained hoarsely.

In fact, Luke wanted to say that he didn't need to yell so loudly, he could hear it himself.

Superman hasn't heard back to this level.

"Later the World War started, and the Ministry of National Defense feared that the Third Reich would attack the mainland and began to build solid and reliable military bases across the country. Lake Akalia was one of them."

Stryker pointed to the concrete dam and said, "The war supplies are stored deep in the dam, but unfortunately it didn’t come in handy. Now that the war is over, these bases have lost their original functions and the Pentagon generals take over the distribution. ."

"Of course, only you, General, have such a face. You are qualified to use a military base that can withstand missile bombing as an experimental site."

Speaking of the back, Stryker also deliberately flattered.

This man with thick eyebrows and big eyes has now learned how to slap his beard.

"It's just that the generals are saving face."

Luke said modestly.

Now, who doesn't know at the Pentagon, this young Major General, who has not been in office for a long time, is very good at reaching out and asking Congress for funding.

The "rebirth plan" for training super soldiers, the "X weapon" plan for researching mutants, and the "exploration plan" for spacecraft...one after another, they almost squeezed out the budget committee.

The most annoying thing was that they couldn't refuse Luke's demands.

Because those plans sound very promising and are worth investing a lot of money.

Howard, who learned of this news, also made fun of Luke specifically, saying that if he goes to Wall Street, he will surely deceive countless investors.

In this regard, the major general smiled and said nothing.

This skill is all learned from an entrepreneur who will return to China next week. First draw a pie, then hype up the concept, and find a few well-known scientist platforms.

The gang of politicians in the White House and Congress naturally paid for it.

Regarding the wool of capitalism, Luke expressed no psychological pressure.

"William, who do you think is the most worthy of training in Task Force X?"

The helicopter landed slowly, and Luke stepped on the soft snow, exhaling a white breath.

He was dressed thinly, but he didn't feel cold.

The tightly wrapped Stryker rubbed his hands and looked enviously at the major general who was walking in front. Is this superhuman physique?

"Of course it is Logan!"

Stryker said the answer without hesitation.

Also a mutant, this young officer seems to have a soft spot for Wolverine.

Every time I saw those bone claws, there was a trace of desire in his eyes.

So when the mutant brothers communicated privately, the saber-toothed tiger said that the dwarf scientist Bolivar was a pervert, and always stared at him with strange eyes.

Wolverine thought that the guy named Stryker was even more disgusting.

After the two brothers looked at each other, they felt chills in their backs.

I can't live this day!

"Logan. Do you like his self-healing factor?"

Luke is not surprised at all, Stryker and Wolverine have a destined fate.

"Yes. I think it can completely turn Logan into an invincible killing machine! Saber-toothed tiger is too irritable, and his emotions will affect his judgment, but Logan is different, his claws, and the expression in his eyes. Wildness, stubbornness in the bones, is simply born for fighting!"

Stryker was so excited that he followed Bolivar to participate in the research and learn more about mutants.

As a soldier, almost subconsciously, this young officer considered applying the X gene to weapons.

"General, the Pentagon's attitude towards mutants is actually far less...gentle than you."

Stryker walked with Luke on the snow with a deep foot and a shallow foot. He asked inexplicably, "Using mutants as weapons for research can get more results in a shorter time. But you don't seem to want this. do."

After these days of understanding, Stryker figured out part of the temperament of Major General.

In most cases, the other person speaks very well, and never looks angry or angry.

It is strange that this does not affect the respect and admiration of Luke by others.

Stryker attributed this to charisma.

"The heads of the Third Reich also thought the same way, so they used Jews and Poles to test poison gas and conduct human experiments."

Luke opened the heavy steel gate and entered the flood control channel.

There is something else in the depths of this concrete dam.

All kinds of war materials, ventilation equipment, weapons and ammunition are readily available.

It's like preparing for the end of the day to welcome the launch of the nuclear bomb.

"It's easy to plant a seed of hatred, but it's hard to get two races to live in harmony."

Luke's voice echoed in the empty dam base.

"I want to be a bridge, not a butcher."
