What should I do?
Am I supposed to follow those cartoons and specifically build a batch of hundred-meter-tall steel mechs to fight those monsters?
Wouldn't that be too childish?
Just as everyone was whispering, Nick Fury spoke again.
This time, he directly pointed the finger at the Monarch Organization.
"It was precisely because you provided false intelligence at that time that I made an incorrect assessment of the battlefield situation, which in turn wasted a large amount of weapons and ammunition…"
"In addition, two high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents were also seriously injured as a result, with estimated total losses exceeding 1 billion. This cost must be paid by your Monarch Organization!!!"
He had accidentally been scammed out of 110 million by Karl before.
Nick Fury now had to find a way to make up for this deficit.
Otherwise, the accounts wouldn't balance!
And this bad debt naturally fell on the Monarch Organization.
Losing face with Karl wasn't a big deal.
As long as he got it back from others, it was as good as not having lost it!
He even made a profit.
See, now I just need to make a move,, and I can directly get 1 billion!
I ask you, Karl Merks, what can you compare to me?
Thus, under the leadership of Alexander Pierce, the UN General Assembly directly rejected the Monarch Organization's plea.
And ordered them to compensate S.H.I.E.L.D. for all losses within a time limit.
Otherwise, they would face the most severe punishment!
The Monarch Organization, still in its early stages, could only choose to swallow their anger!
What Alexander Pierce wanted to see most now was Nick Fury clashing intensely with other organizations.
This way, the latter would never notice the loss of Loki's scepter.
In addition.
The UN General Assembly also passed two other resolutions.
One was for Vought Corporation to compensate the families of the deceased in the San Francisco Monster Attack Event!
There was nothing they could do; Homelander was the one who caused the trouble.
Furthermore, Vought Corporation, relying on its strong capital and numerous super-powered individuals, always ignored the authorities!
So if this blame wasn't placed on them, who else could it be placed on?
What, you're saying what if Homelander gets angry and goes on a rampage?
Please, there are simply too many superheroes in this World who can easily defeat him.
Just Hulk and Thor from the Avengers alone could make him behave.
Not to mention Nick Fury's ultimate trump card, Captain Marvel!
So…
What else could Homelander do?
Of course, he could only drink a bottle of hot milk to calm his nerves!
The other resolution was:
That all countries would collaboratively establish the Monster Early Warning System (K.E.A.S.) and jointly fund the creation of a military force equipped with the most cutting-edge technology—the Pan-Pacific Defense Corps, abbreviated as PPDC.
To conduct precise and effective joint strikes against invading Kaiju!
Subsequently, the Jaeger Program proposed by Dr. Spah Szedifier was officially approved.
And two technical development consultants were initially selected from numerous outstanding scientists to assist in the development of giant mechs.
They were Iron Man, Tony Stark, and Dr. Reed Richards, known as the "Smartest Man on Earth."
...
With the public announcement of the latter two plans.
The originally angry public sentiment finally eased, and attention successfully shifted to discussing the feasibility of giant mechs.
And Vought Corporation's stock price, as expected, plummeted once again!!!
...
"Hiring Tony Stark and Dr. Reed Richards as technical consultants? Is this going to be the early entry into the Gundam era?"
Karl looked at the news with great interest.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he murmured:
"If I remember correctly, the second, more toxic Kaiju will invade in the coming months…"
However, due to the influence of World fusion, the timeline has undergone significant changes.
So even Karl couldn't be sure if the Kaiju's invasion time would remain the same.
"It seems I must come up with a perfect solution as soon as possible."
Karl naturally didn't want to miss such an excellent opportunity to harvest Prestige value.
But how to deal with Kaiju specifically?
It was also a headache for him.
His Energy Projection ability would mostly be useless.
And the Mind Manipulation ability would likely be ineffective due to the Kaiju's inherent "Hive Mind" characteristic.
From this perspective, he seemed to have no good way to deal with these alien biological weapons!
Should he also follow the PPDC Organization and build giant mechs?
Leaving aside whether the technical difficulties could be overcome.
The sheer financial pressure alone was something the Hyperspace Group could not bear.
Throughout the entire Pacific Rim series, during the years of Kaiju invasion.
The entire World together only managed to build 31 giant mechs and 9 Shatterdome production and maintenance Bases!!!
So behind every giant mech, there must be the enormous financial support of at least one country or even several countries to make it possible!
Otherwise, even if they had the money to build, they would fall into the embarrassing situation of not having money to repair.
So the answer was naturally no.
Karl immediately dismissed this idea.
Just as he was racking his brain, the blonde secretary gently pushed open the door and reported, "Boss, Mr. Zemo is back."
"Oh?"
Karl temporarily put aside his troubled thoughts, got up, and followed the secretary towards the secret research center below the building.
Soon, the two took the special elevator and arrived at the 18th floor of the underground research center!
Outside a P4-level glass laboratory.
Karl finally saw Samuel Sterns, wearing special handcuffs and a muzzle.
"Boss, this guy has been quite well-behaved along the way."
Zemo said, pointing to Samuel Sterns inside the laboratory, who was sitting quietly on a chair, observing his surroundings with interest.
To be honest, he was really curious why his boss would specifically exchange such a freak from S.H.I.E.L.D.
Did this guy have any other extraordinary abilities besides his head being three times larger than normal?
"You've really worked hard this time."
Karl seemed to guess Zemo's thoughts and explained with a smile:
"Samuel Sterns' head was originally no different from a normal person's, but due to accidental exposure to the Hulk's serum,
Which led to a mutation in his brain, turning him into an 'Intellectual Superman' whose intelligence far surpassed that of ordinary people by hundreds of times."
"The reason I exchanged him back this time is to have him lead the decryption of the original Super Soldier Serum formula, as well as numerous other scientific research projects,, such as the future development of new weapons and equipment."
"Oh, in other words… this is a research workhorse?" Zemo summarized with a strong sense of humour.
Karl glanced at him.
The two immediately smiled knowingly!!!
