Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

After all, some mutants may cause destruction due to their ability defects or inability to control their emotions.

The stable serum developed based on mutant research came into play.

They have enough mature experience to rely on the mutant warriors recruited by the three major warbands.

However, the serum will be diluted, and its main function is to stabilize and slightly enhance the serum.

At the same time, a small group of mutants have physical changes, such as toad faces, dog heads, and deformed limbs.

They can choose to have mutant genes removed through surgical experiments.

During the subsequent recovery period, a follow-up serum injection was administered to stabilize and slightly strengthen the body.

The whole process was very short.

This is the benefit of having a mature genetic technology. From the very beginning, Terra's strategic actions were all planned ahead of time.

Planning ahead is essential for proceeding; impulsive, haphazard actions are absolutely unacceptable.

A growing population indicates an increasing national potential.

However, Terra is currently in a state of "closed-door policy," not accepting foreign economic and trade influences, which has led to a conservative internal market environment.

But Terra is not short of money at all.

We still have to thank Alexander Pearce and Drake, who are ranked first and second, and of course Baron Strucker, who is ranked third.

The legacy these three left behind is truly immense.

Besides cash, the biggest assets these three hold are their global investments in various sectors, such as stocks in world-renowned companies.

Terra earns unimaginable profits each year from these revenues alone.

Even if someone notices something amiss, it is Terra that can ultimately trace the flow of these funds.

And to purchase large quantities of various materials through freight and shipping.

However, other countries basically pretended not to see it.

They should collect whatever taxes are due, and as long as Terra doesn't explicitly state it, they should still earn the money they're entitled to.

If Terra were to make this clear, it's likely that all countries, including the United States, would send profits to Terra.

The main goal is to please.

Aside from the fact that Terra's strengths are different, they are also afraid of demons.

Who knows when a wave of extraterrestrial demons or other life-threatening beings might arrive, and we might have to call for help from Terra.

Even if it's not a good thing, you shouldn't offend them, right?

What if Terra holds a grudge and leaves a loophole? Wouldn't our country be doomed?

No one would do something so stupid.

However, due to its unique geographical location, Terra itself has encountered some minor problems.

For example, water resources.

Sokovia was originally a small, landlocked, mountainous country in Eastern Europe, a former ally of the Soviet Union, and was plagued by years of war, corruption, and economic collapse.

Years of bombing have severely damaged infrastructure, leaving many areas without even clean drinking water.

The United Nations has long been involved in humanitarian aid efforts to address this issue, but these efforts have been insufficient, as civilians generally lack water, food, and medical care.

Now that Terra has been established, there are no longer any problems with food, supplies, and medical care.

In particular, its medical field is among the world's leading.

However, the scarcity of water resources is quite important.

Fortunately, Terra has enough capital.

There are many solutions.

In the early stages, Raiche and his team planned to establish a long-term magical portal to connect the main stream of the Danube River, large freshwater lakes, and snowmelt areas to set up corresponding water intake points and continuously deliver fresh water in a targeted manner.

The problem of water supply for the population can be solved in the short term.

Secondly, reconstruction will be carried out through mountainous terrain and pipeline networks.

Intercepting snowmelt and streams from the mountains, constructing tiered reservoirs, dams, and water diversion tunnels, and diverting water from higher elevations to four core cities, including the densely populated Novigler.

The project involved a complete renovation and reconstruction of the wartime-damaged municipal water supply network, with main and branch pipes laid in different zones to achieve citywide tap water coverage.

Wastewater treatment plants were built simultaneously, and water was recycled.

A man-made water storage system and a transnational land-based water pipeline will be constructed subsequently.

Ultimately, the goal is to build large-scale seawater desalination plants that can provide not only daily water but also water for agriculture and industry.

In other words, seawater desalination technology needs some time to be developed, while the other three months have already seen initial construction underway.

These factories, large and small, all require enormous amounts of capital and a large workforce.

Therefore, Terra has no shortage of positions.

With a large influx of people, everyone can find corresponding jobs and earn an income to support themselves.

The main difference is that Terra is different in nature from newly established nations.

Terra is more like a reconstruction than a development from scratch.

Terra has no shortage of money or resources. Just like playing a city-building simulation game, you start with full funds and plenty of equipment. As long as you plan and lay out the layout in advance, you can build a large city.

At the city hall of the capital city government.

A group of officials in charge of development and construction are constantly summarizing the information sent down from below.

After a series of coordination efforts, the subsequent planning was discussed using a comprehensive 3D land map.

Police stations, fire stations, hospitals, schools, commercial streets, overpasses, highways, and so on were all planned and constructed by them.

As for Reicher, Natasha and other core members of the leadership didn't care about these things.

These developments can be left to these professionals.

It is worth mentioning that Zemo was one of these development and construction officials.

He frequently travels to other cities to personally inspect and observe.

Zemo's enthusiasm was fully ignited.

Unlike before, Zemo now smiles every day. He enjoys seeing the changes in Terra every day and the laughter and joy of the people on the streets.

I saw the city lights up in the night.

Terra is now thriving, with ordinary people working hard every day, wives staying home to take care of the children and cook, and some going to work.

After getting off work and school, the family ate dinner, strolled around the streets, and went into supermarkets and stores to buy snacks, drinks, fruits, and daily necessities.

Here, you can see people of all races, including whites, Eastern Europeans, and Asians.

Because of the serum, people become healthier, more energetic, and have clearer minds.

During the integration process, they will learn each other's languages.

Of course, if all else fails, there are also simultaneous interpretation devices available.

Communication is not a weakness.

The integration of a nation's culture may not show any effects in the short term, but over time it will eventually form a unique cultural characteristic that belongs to Terra.

On this day, Zemo led several officials to inspect a newly established energy project on the outskirts of Novig.

On the vast land, buildings rise one after another. The buildings, constructed of silver-gray alloy, have sharp edges and their layered structures exude a strong sense of modern industry.

The surrounding buildings are entirely inlaid with special glass, and the factory workers, wearing protective suits and hats, go back and forth to inspect them.

The entire factory is operated autonomously by artificial intelligence.

Eight towering energy conversion towers stand around the center, their bodies covered with fine heat dissipation fins, and their surface energy patterns shimmer with light.

At the very core of the hub, triple superconducting magnetic confinement rings intertwine and spiral, with pale blue plasma arcs slowly moving between the ring gaps.

At the very center is a giant spherical ark reactor with a diameter of eighty meters, and seven layers of adaptive armor firmly lock the internal fusion core.

The deep blue energy pulsed steadily at the center of the sphere, like a condensed artificial star, with no radiation leakage from the pure energy.

Twelve thick superconducting conduits extend radially, channeling the surging energy into the conversion tower and then transmitting it through the underground power grid to various parts of Terra, where factories, residences, and water facilities all rely on it to operate.

In the main control room, the holographic light screen constantly refreshes various parameters, allowing staff to monitor the entire situation using only smart devices.

The project also incorporates double protection: a plasma energy shield is placed outside the reactor, and a spatial barrier set up by the Kamar-Taj sorcerer is hidden on the surface of the building, which can resist external forces and isolate dimensional anomalies.

The spectacular scene drew expressions of admiration from Zemo and the other officials.

"This is a large-scale ark reactor that achieves room-temperature controlled fusion using new elements. It is pollution-free and radiation-free, with a rated power sufficient to cover all loads nationwide. Energy loss is less than one-thousandth. The entire system is intelligently controlled, operates stably, and has a near-infinite range."

"Unlimited energy will be the end of the future era. With it, Terra will never lack energy again."

Ivan Vanko, the once down-on-his-luck genius scientist, has now shed his arrogance. With a simple buzz cut and wearing work clothes, he proudly explains as he tours the factory with Zemo and several officials.

"I remember that this project was initially decided upon at Minister Ivan's suggestion, right?"

Zemo's gaze grew increasingly intense as he looked at Ivan. He took a sip of a bottle of mineral water, opened it, and smiled as he spoke to Ivan.

Ivan is the Minister of Energy, overseeing energy development in Terra.

"Indeed, the Arc Reactor is currently the best way to solve Terra's energy needs. However, it is not perfect. The synthesis of core new elements is extremely difficult, and the magnetic confinement system has a very low fault tolerance. Once it goes out of control, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Ivan nodded, then expressed his helplessness.

He was a proud man. His father had once given him the blueprints for the Arc Reactor technology, which made Ivan believe that the technology was groundbreaking.

However, after officially joining Terra and learning more about the technology, they discovered that the technique had flaws.

This factory was built using a significant portion of Terra's resources.

Leaving aside technical issues, the entire system has stringent requirements for materials, precision equipment, and specialized operation and maintenance technology. Ordinary enterprises and countries simply cannot build or maintain it, resulting in an extremely low tolerance for error.

It was only possible to build this now because Ivan contributed the technology.

It took a considerable amount of time for the entire energy research team to fully understand and perfect the process before it was established.

Fortunately, if technology is lacking, then a little magic will do.

The appearance of magical runes eliminated the drawbacks to the greatest extent, making the entire controlled nuclear fusion process risk-free.

Currently, this technology remains one of the world's technological heights.

Tony Stark possessed this technology but did not subsequently utilize it in the energy market.

The main technology is too advanced.

Once it's put on the market, it could easily lead to disputes with other global energy giants.

This is extremely detrimental to Tony Stark's business empire.

However, Terra doesn't have this worry.

What? Ivan actually built this thing, does Tony Stark really dare to come to Terra and accuse them of illegally using Stark family's proprietary technology?

Do those energy giants still dare to come here and bare their teeth?

I'll kill them all in a minute.

Of all the places in the world, Terra has the greatest potential for development.

If anything is useful, it can be included and used. What about copyright awareness?

Terra is the guide for civilization and the protector of all humankind.

What's wrong with contributing some technical skills?

"Minister Ivan seems to have other ideas?" Zemo was a shrewd person and noticed that Ivan seemed to have some other thoughts.

Ivan grinned and didn't hide anything: "That's right, a PhD student at an American lab that I'm interested in has submitted a report on controlled nuclear fusion technology."

"It is also a type of clean energy. If that technology can be developed and perfected, I believe it will have an immeasurable impact on our future, not only for people's livelihoods, but also for weapons and warfare."

Judging from his physique, Ivan was not a man of leisure; he often shifted his focus rapidly from technology and people's livelihoods to weaponry and warfare.

"Oh?"

Zemo and several other officials immediately perked up and became interested.

Seeing their expressions, Ivan explained, "That's a theory proposed by Dr. Otto Octavius ​​of the United States."
