I was acting crazy in North America, and all the crazy people there took it seriously.

Chapter 195 America, you must believe in science!

Logan didn't push for Hughie's interview with The Sun, but The Sun probably didn't expect Hughie to make such explosive remarks.

Even Logan was thoroughly astonished.

Logan wasn't particularly bothered by the heavily modified "Wakanda myth"—he had said before that the legend of "Wakanda" was ancient, and Hughie could make necessary "re-creations" based on the needs of the times and the situation of the struggle.

What really made Logan feel uneasy was the proposal of a "black state".

Logan had anticipated that Wakanda would demand a living space after their great victory, like an Indian reservation, but he didn't expect Hughie to be so greedy, asking for an entire state right off the bat!
How many states does the United States actually have?
Logan could almost hear the entire white community gasp.

This is no longer about demanding living space; it's about tearing a huge chunk of flesh from the white-dominated body of America and redrawing the political map!

What's even more unsettling is that Hughie then openly declared, "We Wakanda should lead America!"

Logan tried to hold back his laughter while listening to the radio, but ultimately, lacking proper training, he couldn't help but burst into uncontrollable laughter.

Black people, leaders, America!
The scene was so beautiful, and the more I thought about it, the more beautiful it became!
However, only a very small number of white people could laugh. For example, the Sun reporter who was listening with Logan looked like he was eating a cockroach, as if he wanted to spit it out but felt disgusted.

It's worth noting that the atmosphere at The Sun was already quite open-minded under Logan's influence, but even so, the reporter almost broke down when he heard the blatant declaration of "Blacks leading America."

For ordinary white people, hearing this felt like being forced to swallow a whole cockroach that had been chewed up.

"Even if I die, I will never allow a 'black state' to appear on American soil!"

The leader of the Ku Klux Klan publicly expressed the sentiments of all white people in the South on the radio.

Interestingly, some media outlets immediately praised him for being "spirited" and then asked him to die—no, to go to Mississippi and wipe out Wakanda!

Ku Klux Klan leader: ...

Where is the US military? Where is our powerful US military? This is their duty!

Quickly bring out all the troops and press them forward. I don't believe those black devils have any bullshit "divine revelation"!
However, the US military believes it! Or rather, at least some US military generals believe it!

Because they are professionals. After the crushing defeat, they immediately began trying to analyze the situation.

The more they reviewed how the first two US forces were so easily and decisively defeated in a very short time, the more chills they felt down their spines.

Possessing both such heavy artillery firepower and such extreme mobility is almost unimaginable under current military science and logistics systems.

No matter how they reasoned, they could not reasonably explain how Wakanda did it.

Upon hearing Hughie's "divine revelation" and "heavenly punishment," some American generals, after the initial sense of absurdity, suddenly had a feeling of sudden realization.

It all makes sense!

It's not that the US military is too incompetent, it's all because black people have Gundams, uh, no, it's all because black people have Black Jesus!

Okay, now there seems to be an "explanation," but what follows is even greater confusion: how do we continue this battle?
Most generals still didn't believe in any "divine revelation," but whether they believed it or not, the bloody facts on the front lines were there for all to see: Wakanda did indeed possess a capability that they couldn't understand, couldn't foresee, and couldn't defend against, capable of secretly deploying devastating heavy firepower right under their noses.

How do you fight?
Therefore, the current atmosphere within the army is: when asked what to do, everyone says they're definitely going to do it, but when asked to lead a team to do it, everyone falls silent.

The army may remain silent, but the media is not to be trifled with.

The media outlets used all their resources, mobilizing all their experts and reporters, to piece together and reconstruct the night's raid based on traces left on the battlefield and interviews with more defeated soldiers.

The results of the simulation left even the media bewildered.

More and more analytical reports are pointing to the same conclusion: the credibility of Wakanda's "divine punishment" is as high as 80%!

Southern media immediately brought up old grievances, mentioning the rumors circulating among white Southern communities that "Black people possessed magic" during the previous "fire tornado that burned the city."

At the time, many media outlets, especially a certain northern media outlet, scoffed that it was a mad tale fabricated by extreme racists. But now, considering everything that has happened in Mississippi, and reflecting on that rumor again…

All of this, it turns out, was not without clues after all!

As more and more media outlets, based on "rigorous" analysis, reached conclusions such as "supernatural factors cannot be ruled out," they collectively fell silent.

What's scary isn't that black people brag, but that the bragging they do turns out to be true after verification!

This realization is undoubtedly a devastating blow to ordinary Americans, especially devout believers!
In the North, things are relatively better. The media is currently gripped by self-doubt and hasn't presented any "conclusions" to verify Wakanda's "outrageous claims," ​​leading many to believe it's merely a psychological tactic by the "rebels." However, in the South, especially in the states bordering Mississippi, word-of-mouth has revealed that the rumors were absolutely true!

Jesus really exists, but he is black;
Miracles do exist, but they're shrouded in darkness;
There really is a holy city, but it's black;
It's true... they're all damn black!
White people in Mississippi felt as if they were living in a cursed land abandoned by God, and began to flee frantically and recklessly, with vehicles even blocking all highways leading out of the state.

Conversely, Black people across the United States, especially in the South, began to flock to Mississippi from all directions, drawn by a mixture of pilgrimage-like excitement, a yearning for power, and a longing for new hope, all in pursuit of Wakanda, the country that claimed to possess "divine revelation."

Greater chaos ensued in churches across several states.

Countless believers, their faith crumbling, surged like a tidal wave into the places where they once worshipped with devotion.

They no longer came to pray, but to question:

Where is our God?!

"Why is it a Black Jesus?! Why are miracles happening on the Black people's side?!"

Let the old white Jesus manifest himself!

Black people have miracles, we can't be without them!

However, the pastors themselves also fell into a profound theological and spiritual crisis.

We also want to ask, why did the "miracle" happen to the black people?

Even The Sun was impacted, receiving a flood of protest letters and threatening phone calls. Devout believers accused them of providing a platform for "blasphemers" and questioned their motives.

Even The Sun couldn't withstand the pressure, or rather, many of The Sun's editors were wavering—Boss, come back and save the day!
Logan, of course, felt obligated to help, declaring that he had lived an honest and upright life, believing only in science and not in ghosts or gods, and immediately penned an article titled "America, You Must Believe in Science!"

"The recent fighting in Mississippi has been shrouded in mystery, causing widespread panic and all sorts of bizarre speculation."

"However, I, Logan, still firmly believe that it is not something incomprehensible!"

"Throughout the history of human civilization, it is the continuous progress of science that has enabled us to understand phenomena that were once regarded as 'miracles' or 'incomprehensible' time and time again—from lightning to disease, from the movement of stars to the growth of all things."

"It is science, not theology, that has brought good news to our health, created countless job opportunities for social prosperity, and provided endless possibilities for leaps in our living standards and cultural progress!"

"What we see today in Mississippi that we call 'incomprehensible' actually shows that we humans, we Americans, have touched a new frontier of scientific knowledge!"

"We should actively explore the frontiers of science, just as we have been actively exploring the western frontiers, creating the powerful and vibrant United States we have today!"

"So, my friends, while you only see fear, I see the door to a new victory for America opening!"

"America is going to win again!"

As soon as Logan's article was published, intellectuals, scientists, and progressives who did not believe in gods and ghosts gave it a thumbs up—that's right, it was not something incomprehensible, but a scientific frontier waiting to be explored, and the gateway to victory for America!
Even the taciturn President Coolidge publicly stated in the media, "This young man is right. Don't believe or spread rumors, trust science, and be proactive. This is exactly the spirit and attitude that America needs most right now!"

However, that very evening, in a secret basement of the White House, President Coolidge sat upright and questioned a wizard he had secretly invited.
"Master, please tell me the truth, is that... mysterious power in Mississippi real? Can we Americans deal with it?"

The wizard stared at a murky crystal ball for a long time, muttering incantations. Finally, he raised his head and said in a hoarse voice to the president, whose anxiety was barely concealed:

"It's true! It's a mysterious power from the East, awakening!"

The East? Africa... well, it seems like America's East is somewhere along the line.

"According to my divination and communication with the spirit world, the trajectory of fate indicates that the mysterious power has already belonged to America. Therefore, there is no need to fight against it or destroy it... just absorb it and integrate it!"

President Coolidge listened intently, slowly leaning back tactically, a glint of understanding flashing in his eyes.

The wizard smiled almost imperceptibly: If this country doesn't believe in "mystical power" and coexist with "superstitious power," how can those who practice superstition make money?

As for "from the East"? Hey, isn't the East always mysterious to Americans?

Who knows where this "mysterious power" comes from? Maybe it comes from another world!
