Chapter 394: The Lighthouse Country Is Going to Have a Civil War

The day after the players returned, in the new base of the Avengers.

Nick Fury was having a video conference with the Secretary of State. The virtual projection of the Secretary of State seemed very annoyed, and poked Nick's big bald head with his finger:

"You actually took the Infinity Gauntlet away with them? Nick, I think you are crazy!"

To say that this Secretary of State does not have a good temper, he used to be a military boss and presided over the plan to capture the Hulk. After these years of operation, he was successfully elected as the Secretary of State of the Lighthouse Country.

As a tough military boss, the former General Ross, the current Secretary of State, his attitude towards superheroes has always been tough.

After the Avengers Civil War, Captain America will be listed as a wanted criminal, which is also inseparable from this Secretary of State.

Previously, Thanos came fiercely, and the official did nothing, but our Secretary of State, at that time, insisted on mobilizing all military forces to fight against aliens, but was strongly opposed.

What war?

Going to a country far away to fight a war is a way to make money, but fighting a war at home is a losing business. The elite masters of the Lighthouse Country know this very well.

Moreover, according to the information they have learned through some channels, the technology and military strength mastered by the aliens are far superior to theirs, which means that if this war is fought, they will almost certainly lose.

It is obviously a losing business, so it is natural to try to avoid it.

For fear that the Secretary of State would do something stupid under impulse, they found an excuse to send him abroad for a visit. After the superheroes defeated Thanos, they decisively brought the Secretary of State back and used his tough style and attitude to put pressure on the Avengers to demand the benefits and spoils of the final battle.

There is no doubt that these elites have the nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. In fact, in theory, if they can defeat the powerful Thanos, the superheroes will naturally become more powerful.

But superheroes are all good people. It is a well-known truth that good people deserve to be pointed at by guns. If I can't bully the evil bad guys, can't I bully you, the righteous good people?

The signing of the "Sokovia Accords" has proved that these superheroes with powerful abilities are not difficult to deal with. As long as they use justice, freedom and other moral kidnappings, they can be crushed.

So what about Captain America?

I can make you an idol and hero of the United States, but as long as you don't do what I want, I can turn you into a vicious, wanted criminal on the run!

Driven by greed and profit, the official has taken it for granted that the spoils left by Thanos in the final battle are their own property. Those big men with big bellies have even begun to plan how to use these treasures for their own personal gain.

As a result, it was learned that the Infinity Gauntlet was taken away by those guys from different time and space!

The Secretary of State was furious, and of course there were not only him and the bald director in the conference room, but also projections of other congressmen and bigwigs.

After the Secretary of State took the lead in accusing, others naturally followed suit, scolding the bald director and even accusing him of treason.

Facing this verbal attack, the bald director had a blank expression on his face, but was very calm. After they finished speaking, he spread his hands:

"Everyone, I have to remind you of a fact that the Infinity Gauntlet has always been their spoils of war. Although we can interfere in the affairs of the entire earth, I'm sorry, we can't and don't have the ability to manage the affairs of the multiverse."

He felt that these bigwigs were all blinded by greed and profit, or they were used to being domineering on Earth in the past, and thought it was okay to extend their black hands to another parallel time and space?

Of course, the big shots don't think so. One of the bearded old men said with a straight face: "Even if they come from a parallel universe, are they not citizens of the Lighthouse Country?

We are not blind. Among them are Tony Stark and Steve Rogers! They should be subject to official supervision!"

Hearing this, the expressionless bald director almost couldn't help laughing out loud, and coughed twice while covering his mouth: "Sir, I'm afraid you have to negotiate with yourself and the officials in another parallel universe for this request.

I don't think they are willing to hand over the Infinity Gauntlet to us, right?"

After Nick Fury finished speaking, the conference room suddenly became quiet...

Shit!

I really haven't thought about this problem before. The officials of the Lighthouse Country in another parallel universe are not vegetarians. Could it be that it will eventually turn into a civil war in the Lighthouse Country?

Imagine that two Lighthouse Countries in different universes are fighting each other. That's really an interesting scene.

The Secretary of State broke the silence and said coldly: "So they just left like that, leaving nothing behind?"

"No, of course they left something behind, very precious things."

Nick Fury saw their expectant gazes and added: "They left behind the experience of dealing with various troubles and crises, as well as the major crises that may occur in the future, which are all very important to us!"

The players naturally did not just pat their butts and leave. The purpose of the Light Front is to support various parallel time and space and help them resist the erosion of darkness.

So they told them all the valuable experience gained from the quiz game and the speculation that a multiverse war might occur in the future.

Of course, in addition to this, they also helped train the strength of the Avengers, especially Spider-Man.

Since they had already done this kind of thing in the previous time-travel mission, it was easy to do it again. The Avengers were naturally grateful for this and knew the value of these experiences.

However, for these bigwigs who could only see direct benefits, the things left by the players were completely insignificant.

But no matter how dissatisfied and angry they were, it would not help. The players had already returned, and the Avengers would not care about their opinions.

……

……

At the headquarters of the Light Front, Batman and six other players who had just experienced the time-travel mission returned to their world.

"Wow, the evaluation of this mission was unexpectedly high. Haha, I got a total of 600 points, and more than a dozen blind boxes!" Tony Stark smiled happily.

Others were also very happy, especially Superman and Wonder Woman. They joined the team temporarily. After the success of this mission, the points reward they received were not as many as Iron Man and his team, but they also had more than 400 points.

This is definitely a huge sum of money in a quiz game!
