Superman

"Major General, you misunderstood."

Feeling the change in the atmosphere of the Oval Office, Mr. President put on his glasses again, as if he changed his face in a Sichuan Opera, he put on a gentle smile.

"I was just dazzled by the bad news that followed, not to blame you. S.H.I.E.L.D. is responsible for the containment and control of mutants. Now that such a big disturbance is happening, it is reasonable to give the Pentagon's people. The general confessed."

Similar words were spoken in a softer tone this time.

I couldn't hear the slightest complaint, but it was more like a friendly discussion.

Seeing the wind, language arts, are all basic skills for politicians.

"With all due respect, the Pentagon general should be more stable. Maintaining high-intensity vigilance and preparing a battle plan is what they have to do, not like a frightened and chattering country shrew, asking for it from the White House. What to say."

Luke unceremoniously criticized the old guys, and the president's head was a bit bigger.

If this spreads, the contradiction between the Navy Department and the War Department will intensify again.

When the time comes, it's still me who has a headache.

"Major General Cavill, we put these questions aside for now."

The President covered his face and said.

"Let’s talk about Atlantis—what are they from?"

The president turned the subject off, but he did not forget that the young major general standing in front of him was only twenty years old.

It is the impulsive age that is unruly and frivolous.

As the saying goes, politicians are more willing to deal with politicians because they have default rules of the game.

But meeting a young man like Luke is a headache.

He will not necessarily abide by the rules of political game, and it is possible to overturn the table on impulse.

In addition, the other party once flew to Berlin to end the world war.

And the military's strongest super soldier, the superman appointed by the Allies and many other auras.

Not to mention the people in the Pentagon, even if the White House has to show some face.

In Eisenhower's words, "How do we restrain a walkable atomic bomb and put him in a cage?"

"Don't worry, Mr. President. We are not ignorant of Atlantis."

Luke pulled out the chair and sat down, showing a relaxed expression with no problems.

"Atlantis is an ancient civilization. They existed on the earth ten thousand years ago with the Lemurian civilization, but were successively sunk in the flood of destruction."

"Perhaps the Atlanteans live as the people of the god of the ocean and have a strong awe of the sea. They did not go extinct, but miraculously preserved a trace of civilization and began to continue their heritage in the deep ocean of the Atlantic."

"For nearly a century, many archaeologists have found the remains of prehistoric civilization near the Atlantic Ocean."

Luke talked freely, showing an expert attitude of "I know Atlantis better than anyone", and could not help the president and chief of staff in the office secretly admire him.

In fact, most of this information comes from surviving memories deep in the mind.

Regarding the true history of Atlantis, we have to start with the Celestial Group.

The gang of cosmic heroes came to Earth for the second time—the first time was four billion years ago. They transformed some primitive humans, and modern mutants evolved from them.

Those primitive humans transformed by the Celestial Group are divided into three major camps, eternals, anomalies and humans.

The eternal is the new god, who studies the absorption and conversion of cosmic energy, has a long life span, and is almost immortal.

They once established three cities on the earth, the Arctic City in Siberia, the Undersea City in the Pacific Ocean, and Olympia in Greece-they were once regarded as gods by the Greeks.

After several migrations, the group had a conflict in the middle. Zulas, the leader of the eternal, exiled his brother Arrals into space.

The latter is the director of the Universe Family Planning Commission, the father of Crazy Titan Thanos.

Relying on his extraordinary ability and vigorous vitality, he rebuilt his homeland on Titan and formed an "eternal race".

If we go back to the source and carefully investigate the family pedigree, the humans on Earth and Thanos are somewhat related to each other.

The opposite of the eternal is the abnormal.

They built cities on land, developed genetic engineering, used Lemuria as their capital, attempted to dominate the entire planet, and formed the Lemurian civilization that existed at the same time as Atlantis.

The abnormal person has a high chance of genetic mutation, and the offspring have no similarities with their parents.

The only thing they have in common is that they are different from each other.

The anomalous are strongly hostile to all species, which also makes Lemurian civilization extremely aggressive and provokes many enemies.

They ushered in destruction in 16000 BC.

The Celestial Group descended on the earth for the second time, destroying Lemuria, the capital of the anomaly.

At the same time, the continental plate moved and Atlantis was affected and sank into the Atlantic Ocean.

This extremely ancient history may only be recorded in a few words by Kama Taj.

Luke was too lazy to say, skipping the front and entering the topic: "Namo Mackenzie is the new king of Atlantis, and he is also a mutant."

"Humans' rejection and persecution of mutants made him feel hatred in his heart and wanted revenge."

Mr. President looked solemn and asked softly: "S.H.I.E.L.D. has long known the existence of Atlantis, why didn't you report it?"

"Because we don't have conclusive evidence yet to convince the Pentagon and members of Congress that an ancient civilization tens of thousands of years ago is hiding in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean."

Luke shrugged and curled his lips. "Mr. President, you shouldn't forget the first time Dr. Teslak told the generals about mutants, how did they react? Everyone had scorn on their faces. And disdain, Director Hoover of the FBI even made a comedian-like boastful laugh, saying that it was just a clumsy lie fabricated by S.H.I.E.L.D. to defraud research funding."

"So sometimes, weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, but arrogance is."

The president showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, coughed twice, and selectively ignored the pungent satire of Director Hoover.

He knew that the FBI and S.H.I.E.L.D. had never dealt with each other, especially the relationship between the two directors was not good.

Edgar Hoover is a man of grudges, and it is of course no good to face the young, energetic and unruly Luke.

"Major General Cavill, since S.H.I.E.L.D. knows something about Atlantis, do you have a plan to deal with it?"

The chief of staff who was listening silently asked questions at the right time.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, no one wants another war. Once a fierce contradiction between marine civilization and the land world is formed that cannot be resolved, it may become the beginning of the third war."

Luke still looked calm and calmly replied: "War will not come. This is my guarantee to you all."

"Although Namor Mackenzie is a king, his bloodline is impure and has not been fully recognized by the Atlanteans. It is not that simple to set off a war between two civilizations."

"The speech he made on that tape was more of a threat to force the military to make concessions."

The president pondered for a long time and thought that Luke made sense.

The Pentagon and the White House were frightened by the sudden emergence of Atlantis and the tsunami that hit Anna Maria Island.

Many times, human beings think they know enough about the world, but the planet under their feet does not belong to them alone.

"Mr. President, tell the Pentagon generals that New York will not fall."

Luke talked about the history of Atlantis, as well as news about Sebastian Shaw and the Hellfire Club.

After a while, he stood up and looked down at the president sitting in the chair, "Because I will go to the Atlantic in person to let the Atlanteans know that the terrestrial world is far less fragile than they thought."
