Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

“I think so, sir.”

“Very good, from Terra. Now we’re in trouble. It seems this matter can no longer be covered up.”

Tony realized the hidden danger in this matter.

This is in response to the crisis facing himself and Stark Industries.

Tony rubbed his temples.

From Wanda's tone, Tony realized that most of the participants were likely to die. The fact that so many people were dying, especially since it was Terra's people who did it, would cause quite a stir.

It seems that breaking up Stark Industries is inevitable.

"Looks like I'm going to lose a lot of money next." Despite saying that, Tony actually smiled.

Radiating confidence.

Even if the military industry is shut down and the company loses its biggest and most stable money-making project, it will only be a short-term impact. Tony believes that with his intelligence, he can bring Stark Industries back to its peak.

At the same time, the exposure of the scandal may not necessarily be a bad thing.

With the other board members and shareholders either killed or investigated, Obi could take this opportunity to repurchase some of his shares.

Just as Tony said.

A deadly storm is sweeping in tonight, and the ones who created it are Wanda and Pietro.

Wanda possesses chaos magic, which, combined with the magic she has learned, has already given her the ability to read memories.

In the original timeline, she was able to read other people's memories even before she had ever been exposed to magic.

This is also the terrifying aspect of chaos magic itself.

After Wanda read Obadiah's memories, she memorized the list of military-industrial complexes led by him that were driving wars around the world.

Tonight, she and Pietro will transform into Death and begin their harvest.

Those who instigate war must all die.

No one can stop it.

This group includes board members of Stark Industries, Justin Hammer of Hammer Industries (the second-largest arms manufacturer in the United States), the U.S. Department of Defense, and the military-industrial bureaucracy.

These people are a group of generals, congressmen, and arms lobbyists.

They were all people who profited behind the scenes after the war.

Tonight, their story will come to an end.

In short, the twins Wanda and Pietro went on a killing spree.

........

When Matthew saw Wanda and Pietro again the next morning, he could clearly "see" the bloody smell emanating from the twins.

It's almost overflowing.

Ordinary people would feel a chill run down their spines if they saw these twins, and timid people might even faint from fright.

Matthew had already learned of the twins' feat from the AI ​​Veronica.

318 people.

From the CFOs, heads of military departments, legal counsel, directors, production and sales managers of the two major military industrial groups, to the generals, project managers and civilian bureaucrats in the procurement office of the Ministry of National Defense.

There are also members of Congress who act as a protective umbrella.

They specialize in bridging top lobbyists in the military-industrial complex, Congress, Wall Street investment banks, hedge fund managers, and so on.

This concerns all those who benefited, big and small, from the Sokovia War; over three hundred people were wiped out overnight by the twins Wanda and Pietro.

To say he was ruthless is an understatement; he killed over three hundred lives without hesitation, and dragged all their souls to hell.

But it wasn't ruthless enough; for example, Wanda and Pietro didn't touch those families.

Is this what you call revenge?

Matthew was satisfied, but also slightly dissatisfied.

He was satisfied that Wanda and Pietro were still kind at heart, but dissatisfied that they ultimately failed to uphold his ideals in this regard.

They are more ruthless to the wicked and more kind to the good.

Since they are the beneficiaries, shouldn't the wives, children, and friends of these people who directly benefited also be killed?

Westerners just can't compare to their own ancestors.

Can you call it revenge if you don't even shake the egg yolk apart?

So Matthew launched into a tirade against Wanda and Pietro.

After verbally abusing the twins to the point of near despair, Matthew kicked them back to the Siberian Plains base.

He knew that the young couple was still not mature enough.

So he informed Nydy and Mordo, asking Nydy to further teach the twins about cognitive concepts.

He then instructed Veronica to inform the Grey Knight battle monk Chivat.

"Veronica, notify Chiwetel to kill everyone who needs to be killed, leave no one alive."

This order caused the number of dead and injured to multiply several times over in just one night.

Soon, in the White House Oval Office.

The president, vice president, and a group of high-ranking military officials gathered together in a somber atmosphere.

Each person, their heart pounding with barely concealed fear, trembled as they flipped through the documents in their hands.

The names and photos left behind at the scene turned the faces of these powerful figures deathly pale.

After a long while, the president sat down in his chair, took off his glasses, and placed them on the table.

He looked at the group of high-ranking officials in front of him with a slightly bitter expression.

"Gentlemen, please share your thoughts."

His gaze swept over them one by one, but these people's eyes wandered and they refused to meet his eyes.

Just kidding, overnight, more than three hundred powerful and influential people vanished without a trace, not even their bodies were found.

Based on the surveillance footage from the scene, it appears to have been done by a very young pair of twins.

The most terrifying thing was that young girl. With a casual wave of her hand, the ground cracked open, bursting with crimson flames, and countless ghostly claws pulled people inside. In the end, the ground returned to its original state.

The surveillance footage has not been deleted.

It's as if it's okay to keep it so that all of them can know.

On the contrary, the bodies of these men's wives and children remained where they were, without fear, sadness, or wounds.

That's terrifying!

Who wouldn't be scared after seeing this?

Seeing this, the president had no choice but to speak first: "Has there been any investigation into the identity of the murderer?"

"We need to handle the aftermath immediately and find out what happened."

That's right, they didn't mention catching the murderer.

Everyone in the office is a shrewd and intelligent person.

Putting everything else aside, just look at the girl's skill in the surveillance video footage, and how she accurately located the deceased's home overnight.

It's important to know that many of the deceased were not even from the same city; some were from Washington, some from New York, and some from Los Angeles.

They are separated by tens or hundreds of kilometers.

This is a method that not everyone can do.

Terra is basically the first thing that comes to mind for everyone.

Regardless of whether it was Terra who did it, even if it wasn't, they still need to investigate thoroughly.

Otherwise, it would be awkward if we really launched a large-scale investigation and arrest of the murderer, and then the murderer was identified as someone from Terra.

Are they going to come knocking with cameras and shouting for us to open the door, just like before?

They don't want to die.

I don't want to be the kind of person who comes knocking on my door one day, only to find my body missing.

"We also need to mobilize resources to minimize the impact of this matter."

Chapter 273 The Hulk (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The president was helpless, as were the other high-ranking officials present.

Looking back, in the past, let alone more than three hundred, even if there were only one or two, no matter who did it, people would immediately be mobilized to make them pay the price.

As a result, there's now a Terra being pressed down on their heads.

Not only can we not investigate or demand the arrest of the perpetrator, but we also have to spend resources to suppress the negative impact of this incident.

Simply put, someone slapped you a few times, turning your head into a pig's head, and you still have to bow and scrape, flattering them and saying that you bumped into them and asking if the boss of Terra's hand hurt.

This is a huge disgrace to the United States.

However, they cannot wash away this shame.

Perhaps it will never be possible again.

This infuriated the leaders of the country that has always considered itself the world's strongest.

But what good is anger?

What can they really do to Terra?

Unexpectedly, a four-star general in the office spoke up, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

"Mr. President, we are the great United States of America, and since World War II, we have had absolute dominance and control over the world."

"But the emergence of Terra disrupted the United States' position in the world order."

"Now one of their murderers has killed more than 300 people, including their wives and children, and all we can do here is help them cover up the negative impact."

"This is undoubtedly a huge humiliation for us."

His deep voice was extremely harsh.

This deeply affected the president and other high-ranking officials.

However, everyone remained calm and focused their attention on this person.

The fact that they were able to come to the White House to participate in the discussions clearly indicates that they are not of high status.

His name is Thaddeus Ross, and he is a four-star general in the United States Army.

He commands the Army's Special Operations and Biological Weapons Special Forces, wields real power over independent operations, equipment allocation, and project approval, and is directly under the U.S. Department of Defense, belonging to the top-level power faction of the military-industrial complex.

Rose is also known as the Thunder General.

This shows that he has a very tough style of doing things.

He is a typical hawk.

Ross was able to be here representing the military only because Secretary of Defense Alexander Pierce had disappeared without a trace.

It was also determined to be part of this missing persons case.

It was assumed that Terra was behind it.

The president saw Ross, dressed in military uniform and with a tough and upright face, make a statement. Although the language was harsh, the president did not care.

“Please continue, General Ross.”

The president is very kind.

Ross also forced a smile, and then continued in a loud voice: "Why are we wary of the Terra Empire, which has a land area of ​​only 110 square kilometers and a population of two million?"

"It's because they control three extremely powerful armies."
