"Using the latest technology, I let some new omnics infiltrate the temple you mentioned. Unfortunately, I did not find the person you are looking for. Also, I can say with certainty that all the monks in that temple are They are ordinary people who are nothing but normal. None of them has anything to do with Hydra. If there is, I'm afraid they live in the temple built by Hydra!"

"You mean, I'm kidding you about this kind of thing?"

"No, sir. I don't think it's a joke!" Ultron obviously didn't question Tony's meaning.In fact, when he asked this question, he had already expressed his thoughts. "Maybe you don't know what happened. But I can tell you that during the time you disappeared. That new sect has grown to a very amazing level."

"They have developed nearly tens of millions of believers in remote areas of India. Even more than one-third of them are fanatics who can put their lives aside. This kind of strength is not at all those who have fallen Only a strong enough force can support all of this. However, I have investigated many things, and there is no obvious country supporting them. So there is only one explanation!"

"Hydra!" He said this name more than ten thousand times, but every time he said this name, he would grit his teeth with hatred.

"I'm very surprised, why they do this. It takes such a huge amount of resources to pull up a sufficiently elite army. And support such a religious system? In addition to raising some useless believers, There is no other effect at all. It is not in line with their interests at all, and they have no reason to do it at all!"

"It doesn't make sense, it's just what you think."

Shaking his head, Tony is not as simple as Ultron thought on this issue.Because he only needs to think back a little bit, and he can think of the expressions shown by those fanatical believers when they faced him at that time.

Almost like a beast, completely devoid of reason.It is really hard to believe that in this civilized world there will still be as crazy and ignorant believers as in the Middle Ages.And it was this kind of understanding that made Tony realize what kind of idea Steve and the others were planning!

This made him have a heavy look on his face, which confused Ultron.

"Is there a problem, sir."

"Of course, it's a serious problem!" Tony knocked on the table in front of him, and said in a deep voice to Ultron. "If it's you, I don't think it's necessary for me to explain to you some of the Crusades that occurred because of religious beliefs!"

"Yes, sir. I know that history very well."

"Then can you tell me why they did it?"

"Because of Jerusalem?" Ultron replied uncertainly. He concluded from the information that the purpose of the Crusades was to occupy such a holy city.But it was difficult for him to understand why people of different beliefs on two continents could wage so many wars against each other for the sake of one city.In this regard, Tony quickly explained.

"Jerusalem? Do you think this city has such great significance? Is it made of gold? Is it paved with precious stones? Of course not! You and I both know that the so-called Jerusalem is just a lonely broken city. Thousands of In addition to a bunch of so-called monuments of civilization, there are only cold boulders and endless yellow sand. It is a desolate place. If I were to evaluate it, it would not even be as good as I am in Los Angeles. A mansion is worth a lot of money. But for certain people, it is the most valuable thing, something that money can’t buy.”

Grinning, a mocking smile slowly appeared on Tony's face.This is his most sincere thought about that period of history.

"The reason why this ruined place has been fought by two religions for hundreds of years is entirely because of the meaning behind it. Belief in the so-called gods! A bad habit that humans should have abandoned long ago!"

"People hundreds of years ago were able to dedicate themselves to the so-called devotion to God. Even their wives, children, and parents, their own lives were completely at the expense of things. Let them do nothing for their own kind. It couldn't be easier to hold a knife at each other! In fact, for them, people of different religions are not the same kind at all. So in their psychology, it is naturally even more impossible to have any burden."

"Fight each other, kill each other. For a city with the symbolic meaning of the gods, to prove your belief in the so-called gods. This is the original meaning of the Crusades. And now, everything you see happening in India, in our It seems that they are copying the same thing. It is really hard to imagine that in that land, there is still room for this kind of ignorance to reproduce. In this regard, I can only say that they really found a very suitable And if they are allowed to continue to develop like this, I can be sure. India is the third country to fall after Japan and Britain. And what does it represent, do you know what it is?"

Ultron certainly understood what that meant.That means that one tenth of the world's population will fall under the control of the enemy, which means that if the same disaster happens, this world will no longer be able to maintain the current order.

After being cut, a person can barely endure it, but if an arm is cut off, it is completely unbearable.What Hydra is doing now is equivalent to cutting off an arm from the main body of a human being.And this is absolutely unacceptable to Ultron, so he immediately said to Tony.

"I will take action, immediately!"

Chapter 99 Undercurrent Surging Celebrity Invitation

The world is always in flux.

When Tony was trying his best to deal with those consortium cancers.These consortiums are not idle either.

They were the ones who made a move on Tony first, so no matter how stupid they are, this group of people can't calm down after only launching a wave of public opinion offensive.Like Tony, they have a big move in the pipeline.But the breakthrough direction of this action is similar to Tony's.

Of course, they won't have the idea of ​​those mutants.Not to mention that the mutants have always been against them, the existence behind the mutants alone is enough to make these people flinch.

The cooperation they seek is based on maintaining their domination of the world.If because of cooperation, an existence is completely above them.That is something they absolutely cannot accept.

Therefore, under the intention of cooperation, they found another special existence.An existence that can even restrain the gods.

Smith Week!Earth Watcher.The most powerful superhero that the human world has ever had.He is also a rebellious guy who doesn't blend in with the world at all.Just from what he did on Modi's talk show, most people can dispel his favor.

But also starting from his behavior, if this is regarded as a handle, then even if he has countless credits for saving people, he will inevitably be completely drowned by public opinion with saliva.But, surprisingly, things didn't go in that direction.But inexplicably, everything gradually calmed down.

All the topics about him were directed to the aggression and plunder back then, and all the contradictions were deliberately pushed to those museums.Smith Zhou, who ignited the explosive keg, not only did not receive the attention of public opinion, even those ordinary people who had been forcibly suppressed by him were mostly tight-lipped about this matter.Including Modi, who suffered the heaviest blow in his career because of this incident, never talked about Smith Week in front of others.

It feels like there is a powerful force pressing everything down forcibly.

What kind of force would do this?This question is on the minds of many, including Smith Zhou himself.In his original idea, this should be an arrangement made by the government to control the fluctuation of public opinion and protect the image of so-called superheroes.But now it seems that the situation does not seem to be like this.

Sitting in a hotel in downtown Los Angeles, Smith Zhou looked at an invitation card placed in front of him.Showed a somewhat playful smile.

This is a very special invitation.There is no extra embellishment on the plain white envelope, only the name of the recipient and a rare wax seal letter.

This is something that European aristocratic families love to play, because a special ring is often used to leave their family name on the wax seal.Of course, not many people use it like this in modern society.Because most of the so-called nobles in the past have fallen into a miserable situation.If you use this kind of teasing method again, it won't have any effect other than embarrassing yourself.The nobles are precisely the group of creatures that need the most face.So they would rather give up this method than make this choice easily.

However, such a custom has been inherited by some upper-class American families with a long history.Although fighting for inheritance, it is impossible for the descendants of these colonists and prisoners in the United States to be the opponents of those European nobles.But in terms of background and strength, the Americans have thrown these historical garbage in Europe more than a street away.Under such a premise, using this method to show one's identity is much more stylish than those upstarts using gold as invitations.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for doing this, that is, you can recognize which family the letter represents.This is also the reason why this method is gradually abandoned.After all, when you send a letter or invitation, you stamp your seal on it.As a result, people can't understand your family logo, and it's really embarrassing to just throw it away as junk mail.

However, since he dared to send such an invitation to Smith Zhou, it is obvious that the sender has no worries about this at all.After all, it is the famous Morgan. As long as you see J Morgan's surname, you can definitely guess his identity.

Compared with such an identity, Smith Zhou cared more about the Morgan family's invitation to him.

You know, the current Morgan family is no longer the former Morgan.After the death of Peabody, the founder of the Morgan Empire, the Morgan Empire inevitably changed from a behemoth that controlled a quarter of American companies to a decline.Neither the U.S. government nor other consortiums will tolerate the existence of such a monster monopolizing the entire U.S. finance.Therefore, it is almost inevitable that the Morgan consortium fell into the situation of splitting and reorganizing.

Of course, the Morgan consortium after the reorganization and split is still a behemoth and one of the masters of this world.But unlike the previous situation that was completely controlled by the Morgan family, it has become an interest aggregation controlled by more people, and it is no longer the territory of the Morgan family.

However, this does not mean that the Morgan family has declined.In fact, J Morgan's descendants have always been tied to the Morgan consortium.Although they are no longer the principals of the consortium, they are definitely one of the representative figures of the entire Morgan consortium.It can be said that the invitation in front of Smith Zhou is not so much an invitation from the Morgan family, but a temptation from the entire Morgan consortium.

And what do they want to test?This question really made Smith Zhou's curiosity inevitably churn.He really wanted to know the answer, so he just sat here peacefully, waiting for the person who picked him up to come to his door.

The invitation only said that the Morgan family wanted to invite him to dinner.Neither the time nor the specific location was mentioned.It seems very irresponsible, but the Morgan family should not be so stupid.So after thinking about it, you should know that they should have arranged everything.

And just like he thought.Just after five o'clock, there was a knock on the door from outside his room.After opening the door, Smith Zhou immediately saw a well-dressed middle-aged man who seemed to be well-educated standing there, bowing his body respectfully to him.

"Mr. Zhou. I am the person sent by Master Morgan to invite you to dinner. Do you have time now?"

They have already found the door, and asked if there is time, which obviously has some kind of compulsive meaning.However, this middle-aged man showed a gentle and very cultivated attitude, which to some extent greatly weakened the meaning of coercion in his words.In addition, Smith Zhou has a certain degree of curiosity in this matter.So he just ignored these irrelevant things and nodded at him.

"Of course, we can go now!"

"Please follow me!" I looked at Smith Zhou's clothes and confirmed that there was nothing inappropriate about his clothes.The middle-aged man waved away a waiter with a dust bag beside him, and made an invitation gesture to Smith Zhou.Following the guidance of the middle-aged man, Smith Zhou strode downstairs without any scruples.

His strength makes him not have to fear any existence in this world at all.So naturally, even the famous Morgan family couldn't let him have any worries about gains and losses at this time.He strolled in the courtyard, even looking at the surrounding situation with great interest.And after looking at it like this, he immediately realized what the strength of the consortium was.

The hotel where he lived temporarily was a very famous five-star hotel.The business is booming, and there are usually a lot of guests staying there.It is almost impossible that there will be no one in the corridor.The current situation is that the road from Smith Zhou's floor to the lobby has been completely emptied.Except for the uniformed waiters standing on both sides, there is not a single idler.Obviously, they have been settled by the Morgan family with a magical thing.

But it seems that this is not grand enough.The Morgan family also specially used the softest Persian carpets to re-lay the journey to welcome Smith Week.

Just by the touch under his feet, Smith Zhou can feel that this is the best alpaca rug.Known for its soft texture, bright lines and precious metals, this kind of carpet is a top-notch luxury item, and ordinary rich people are only willing to use it in the most private place like the study room.But now, hundreds of meters of roads are covered with such carpets.Apart from being flattering, all that remains is jaw-dropping extravagance and luxury.

Of course, this is how ordinary people feel.Old ghosts like Smith Zhou who have enjoyed all the prosperity in the world will not be moved by these things.However, he did understand the Morgan family's intentions.They were obviously using this method to show him their strength.From the power of money!

This made Smith Zhou secretly sneer, but on the surface he didn't change in any way.This made the middle-aged man who had been observing him secretly anxious.However, he still maintained his demeanor and upbringing, and led Smith Zhou into a custom-made stretched Lincoln, and sat in the driver's seat himself, leading him and the four back and forth Five luxury cars drove towards the suburbs far away from the city.

Los Angeles is a big city, no matter how many luxury cars there are.It's just like now, it's obviously rare to drive a luxury car and guard a more luxurious Lincoln.

In this regard, Smith Zhou immediately smiled, and then asked the middle-aged man driving in front.
