Natasha's expression changed. "Tesseract?" She had heard of this name as early as World War II. Hydra was a new weapon developed based on the Tesseract. They swept across the European battlefield, conquering Denmark in a day and the Netherlands in five, all thanks to this new weapon developed using the Tesseract.
And now the Cosmic Cube seems to have been found by SHIELD, and research on it has begun.
"So when will this powerful cosmic being you mentioned prepare to collect the Cosmic Cube and other things?" Natasha asked.
"I had this idea not long ago, before I entered the Earth. If the Cosmic Cube is activated, he will sense the location of the Cosmic Cube and send people to seize it. At that time, the alien invasion will come." Yang Han said.
"Oh, damn! I have to stop Nick Fury from researching the Tesseract."
Chapter 97: The Hidden Truth
Natasha believed in Yang Han's words without a doubt. She wanted to contact Nick Fury, but unfortunately she couldn't get through to him.
"Damn black-salted egg." Natasha gritted her teeth in anger. She had important intelligence to report, but this guy didn't answer the phone. It was really infuriating.
"They are probably on guard against you. They are also on guard against your changes." Yang Han chuckled. It was obvious that Natasha's changes were completely beyond Nick Fury's expectations.
"Hmph, do you really think SHIELD is that good? If this matter didn't concern the Earth, I wouldn't bother to say anything more to this black-boiled bastard." Natasha said indignantly.
I wanted to report these important things with good intentions, but this guy couldn't be contacted. My kindness was really taken for granted!
Natasha was very angry about Nick Fury's move. She was too lazy to say anything more and too lazy to contact Nick Fury. She lay lazily on the sofa, turned on the TV, and watched the aftermath of this incident.
The two monsters plus her have caused serious damage to Manhattan. According to Natasha's observation, almost half of the buildings in Times Square and the six surrounding streets have been destroyed.
The entire Broadway and even Columbia University suffered serious damage. The direct economic losses are estimated to be at least 8 billion US dollars, not including casualties.
Not counting the soldiers who died in battle, there were dozens of civilian casualties, and many people lost their homes and jobs because of this sudden man-made disaster.
This is simply a disaster.
A disaster comparable to a natural disaster only causes losses of about tens of billions of US dollars. You must know that a disaster of tens of billions of US dollars is considered a catastrophic disaster.
Of course, this is also accompanied by casualties, which must reach at least tens of thousands of people before it can be considered a major disaster.
Times Square and Broadway are very busy areas. The destruction and injuries caused by Hulk and Abomination have almost reached the level of a catastrophe.
This shows how powerful their destructive power is.
The battle between Hulk and Abomination could not be concealed at all. Many people saw it, and many of them took photos and videos.
Natasha wanted to see how they would respond to public condemnation.
However, as one of SHIELD's top agents, Natasha naturally knows what SHIELD's role is.
There are some things that SHIELD simply cannot know.
"A fierce battle between two giant monsters occurred in Manhattan. The government and military have reached a conclusion. One of them was a former physics doctor who turned into a monster due to a failed experiment four years ago. The other ugly monster was a mad scientist who, under the banner of restoring the physics doctor's original appearance, injected his blood into his own body, transforming himself into a gigantic monster. The two giants fought, and one died, while the other escaped. As for their true names, we don't know, so we can only call them Hulk and Abomination. What follows is the live report."
A beautiful female host on TV walked up to a young man who had witnessed most of the fighting and began to interview him.
"You didn't see it at the time. The two big monsters were knocked to the ground one by one by Ms. Venom. They were no match for her at all. She will be my idol from now on." The boy narrated very excitedly.
As he spoke, he took out his cell phone and played the footage he had recorded.
The picture shows Natasha easily suppressing two giants.
"How does it feel to be on TV?" Yang Han asked with a smile.
"It's just okay, but it's far inferior to Tony Stark, the great philanthropist." Natasha said proudly.
The previous news was that Iron Man, Tony Stark provided charitable assistance to the homeless and unemployed people, donating about 5 billion US dollars.
Of course, this is just a normal tax avoidance operation by capitalists. The actual tax that Stark Industries has to pay on its revenue is more than 5 billion US dollars.
Although this is a reasonable tax avoidance operation by capitalists, it has also won a lot of people's hearts. Yashida Enterprise and Osborne Group have also donated a lot of US dollars and organized a charity dinner.
However, these things have nothing to do with Natasha.
"Yang Han, you are quite sensitive to politics. With the vitality of hatred, I guess my previous attack couldn't kill him. Who will get rid of him?" Natasha suddenly asked.
"S.H.I.E.L.D." Yang Han answered without thinking.
"Why?" Natasha asked. No matter what, although the birth of Abomination had nothing to do with the military and was entirely Bronsky's own act, logically speaking, Abomination itself was also the property of the military. Why should it be handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D.?
"I believe you know the duty of S.H.I.E.L.D., which is to conceal some truths from the public. Only a few people know the truth and the truth is completely digested internally. Although the birth of Abomination was due to Blonsky's self-will, Blonsky is still a military man, and Hulk was also a product of the military four years ago. No matter what, this is the military's fault, so the truth must be concealed. Helping Ross conceal the truth must have a price. I guess the price is the corpse of Abomination." Yang Han said dimly.
"Why are they trying so hard to hide the truth?" Natasha asked, somewhat puzzled. She had never experienced anything like this before.
"If we don't do this, what else can we do than tell the people that the army they used their tax money to support, which was supposed to protect them, created two monsters, and then these two monsters wreaked havoc in the city they live in, causing countless losses and casualties?
Please, if this really happened, it would not be just a political scandal. It would destroy the dignity of the entire government. A large number of senior military and government officials would resign because of this, even the president.
This may not make sense to you, but let's put it another way: if a tactical nuclear bomb were detonated in a city due to a military error, how would the public react? I wouldn't be surprised if they said they would immediately rise up in armed rebellion to overthrow the evil rule of the United States.
This is how the American people are. They attach great importance to personal safety.
Therefore, both the military and the government will do their best to conceal this matter for the sake of social stability and to keep their own positions.
"What those bureaucrats least want to see is social unrest, and as for the truth, they never care about it," Yang Han said in a slightly deep tone.
"You know so much. I don't understand the thinking of these politicians." Natasha didn't dwell on it. Thinking too much would only bring her trouble.
"If you understand, you are no longer a super agent, but a qualified politician," Yang Han joked.
"You know so much, you're no different from a politician," Natasha asked.
"It's a long way off. I can only understand and guess what these old foxes want to do, but the resources I can mobilize are far less than those of these politicians." Yang Han shook his head and said.
Chapter 98: The Stark Expo is about to start
"This is so unfair to those who died because of this, and it is a deception. The American people deserve to know the truth. This is also covering up a crime, just like last time, when the matter of the Lizard People was completely blurred." Natasha frowned slightly. She still didn't quite understand the politicians' thinking.
"So you can only be an agent, not a politician. Agents only need to have execution and combat capabilities, while politicians need to command the overall situation. You have to know that sometimes, deceiving the public is not about shielding criminals or deceiving people, but a form of protection.
If the truth is made public, the government will lose its dignity and credibility. When the government no longer functions, crimes will continue to emerge and society will be in turmoil.
How many people will die in this turmoil? I'm afraid there will be more casualties than those caused by hatred. Perhaps this is unfair to the dead, but the living are more valuable, aren't they? "Yang Han said in a rather profound tone.
"I'm starting to doubt whether you're from Earth or I am." Natasha said helplessly. She simply couldn't understand what others could see at a glance.
"So, you're right if you listen to me." Yang Han said proudly.
"Tsk, you little bastard." Natasha said she didn't want to talk to you and rolled her eyes at you.
Natasha took off her clothes, walked into the bathroom and started taking a shower.
Yang Han curled up in Natasha's body, quietly enjoying the benefits given by Natasha. Although he was in Natasha's body, Yang Han could still see Natasha's body. Yang Han didn't know why.
