Chapter 3556 The Edge of Tomorrow (Two)

"You mean, an evil artificial intelligence created by aliens from higher civilizations is wandering in the solar system at the moment, and the Justice League is off work, so you want me to solve this problem?"

The opposite seemed to be talking aloud. Amanda, who was holding the phone, sighed deeply.

"Okay, you know that if I don't have enough authority to deal with such an enemy, I can't do it..."

The person on the other side of the phone said something, and Amanda frowned and a hint of anger appeared on his face.

"Listen, Claude, the original intention of the Federal Shield was to solve the supernatural events within the Federation. You asked me to fight aliens, let's not talk about whether I have this ability. Even if I have it, if the departments do not cooperate with me, can I do anything?"

"I don't want to know what difficulties you have, and this is not a deal. It is a necessary condition for achieving your goal if you can't do it, please be smart!"

Amanda hung up the phone, still looking irritable, walked around the office, scolding the congressmen in her heart.

Since its establishment, the Federal Shield has been a bit awkward.

Most of the members Amanda can hire are not very strong, but they are enough to deal with ordinary people. However, if you participate in various supernatural events, the survival rate and the probability of successful resolution of events are not very high, and you have never received much money.

Moreover, police, military and guards everywhere are unwilling to cooperate, let alone the FBI. This makes their actions more difficult.

But in the final analysis, it is because Amanda's ability to select talents is insufficient. Amanda will be somewhat uncontrollable and he is unwilling to use it; but the kind of people who are obedient are either waste or lions speak out.

In short, since the establishment of this organization, no major incidents have been resolved.

The FBI can solve the supernatural event that is not that harmful; the Justice League is also the one that is too harmful. They are stuck in the middle and it is really hard to get it.

This also made Amanda's status a little embarrassed. The FBI and state police at all levels, the Guards, didn't like her, and felt that the Federal Shield had separated their law enforcement powers.

Those local police stations who need to call them for support think that the people they bring are not strong enough and not solved neatly enough, leaving them with a lot of messes, which may be more troublesome than solving them by themselves.

The Justice League cannot use them. Lex can solve all the execution problems themselves, and does not need to go through any second-trafficking dealers, making them more and more useless.

However, this situation has improved after the economic crisis.

Mercenaries on the Black Island cannot receive orders and go back to their own homes, but some of them are wanted criminals and have no land to plant in their hometowns. They do some thieves without making money, and they have to worry every day.

These people accepted Amanda's recruitment. Don't think that there is little money and too much work, at least it is a stable job, at least it is better than being hungry.

Because the employment environment is too poor, Amanda can hire people much better than before at the same price.

For example, Death Sagittarius was originally considered a front-line mercenary, and he had a mission of hundreds of thousands of dollars, spending money and being free and easy.

But since the Great Depression came, the number of orders fell sharply and he received less than one order in three months. He was preparing to change careers and become a shooting coach. Amanda gave him 4,000 yuan a month and helped him pay insurance. He happily went to work.

For example, Death Knell, the world's number one mercenary, did it take any action not to be a bloody storm. In the past, he claimed that he would never cooperate with law enforcement agencies, but now he has honestly taken over the security task of the Federal Shield, from killing to delivering goods.

There are countless examples of this. In this day, if you can provide you with a job, you are already a charitable person. Although Amanda is mediocre, she is not stingy. She even pays insurance for you. What else can I choose to choose from for such a job?

Having obtained many powerful employees, Amanda naturally wanted to go a step further, but what was a little embarrassed was that the earth has been quite peaceful recently and there was no chance to show herself.

Although the asking price of these powerful members is not high, it is much higher than the previous group of gangsters. They all need budgets to support them. If you can't show your abilities, why do you ask Congress for more budgets?

Amanda also had to follow Nick's old path, which was to make trouble by himself and cheat funds by his left hand.

But there is another problem, that is, the level of the Federal Shield is not high enough, unlike S.H.E.L.D. Wherever you land, you will be sure to solve any tasks. Once the ID is lit, you will retreat.

The federal shield is not enough to meet the United Nations at all, and it is not even directly under the federal government. It is considered an extra-staff organization of the FBI. To put it bluntly, it is an outsourcing team. How could those used to overbearing state police and guards cooperate obediently?

Therefore, Amanda has always been committed to improving the level of the federal shield. Not to mention being directly under the jurisdiction of the United Nations, it must at least be on par with the FBI, and can require local departments to cooperate unconditionally.

But this is not that simple. If Congress wants to see its value, it has to do a big thing, but if the level is not enough and it is constrained everywhere, it cannot do a big thing, and naturally there is no way to go further. Isn’t this a vicious cycle?

Just as Amanda was thinking about the solution in the office, the FBI called. The other party explained Brenniak's situation. Although he also said that the Federal Shield would take action, he kept silent as soon as he mentioned the benefits.

Amanda didn't have much hope. She probably ended up taking action in the Justice League. Aliens and other things are still a bit too far away from them.

Just as she sat back behind her desk a little unwillingly, her cell phone rang again. This time, she took the phone and a slightly anxious voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Ms. Waller, come to Washington right away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Amanda's office door was also knocked. He looked up at the door and slapped the phone on the table. The secretary rushed in and said, "A electronic life invaded the Congressional conference system and posted a video at the Capitol!"

Amanda took the tablet from his secretary's hand. He saw a translucent phantom of green skin on the screen, smiling at the camera.

"Hello, humans. I'm glad to meet you here." Breniak's voice echoed in the wide conference hall of the Capitol. People looked up, gray-haired politicians pushing their glasses, and the MPs who were in their prime frown.

"I am also very happy to discover such a beautiful planet in the vast sea of ​​cosmic stars. I think your hometown is very valuable for collection. If you are willing to accept my rule, I will make this place the center of cosmic civilization."

The camera suddenly shook and turned behind Brenniak. Behind him was a machine with complex structure that looked like some kind of supercomputer.

At this moment, images from all over the world flashed through countless screens, as if all the activities of human civilization were under his surveillance.

Suddenly, all the screens turned into snowflakes. When they appeared again, the faces of everyone in the parliament hall appeared in every screen, with their names still on top of their heads.

"I hope you won't object to me," said Breniak. "Otherwise I will teach you that the most important thing in this kind of thing is to take care of yourself. Can you understand what I mean, right?"

Not only the US Congress, but also the same image appears in government agencies in various countries around the world, but the people on the screen are different.

"I know some of you will agree with me." Breniak began to pace in front of the screen, as if he was thinking, and even made a compassionate gesture.

"I will call these people you see now the leaders. Do you think they are doing well?"

"Some people may think it's pretty good. But you're wrong. Because judging from the data I've collected, they're not good to you."

"You have such a beautiful planet, but most people cannot enjoy this beautiful one-tenth of the beauty. They are trapped in their own small place every day, holding a meager salary, and running around with their lives."

"This is the consequence of letting you rule yourself. You don't understand data and fairness. As long as you are above others, you will definitely not do anything more for your compatriots. On the contrary, you have to ask for it from you, which has caused the situation today."

"From the data I investigated, you have been even worse in recent times, and it can be said to be very miserable."

"There are many creatures in the universe, and there are few who can make themselves so miserable like you. I think you just lack a leader who is sensible and fair enough."

"I can introduce myself to you. But don't worry, I won't just talk empty words like the leader of the earth. After I rule the earth, I can use my huge computing power to calculate the resources needed by everyone and distribute them fairly to everyone."

"Let me make a demonstration." Brenniak waved, and a larger screen popped up beside him, and a man's face appeared on the screen.

A man in the hall of the council opened his eyes wide because he was the one who appeared on the screen.

"This Mr. Lofi is the owner of a pharmaceutical company. He has 28 properties under his name, three wives, six children, and currently two lovers. He has just given one of the lovers a watch worth $600,000."

"And this..." Brenniak waved his hand again, and a black woman appeared on the screen. She looked in her 30s, but her face was exhausted, and her turbid eyes were covered with red bloodshot.

"A single mother from Pennsylvania works in a laundry and earns less than $600 a month, but she pays $80 a week's rent and supports a child."

"Her daughter has been somewhat malnourished recently, so she stole a small can of protein powder worth $16 in a nearby supermarket and was sent to jail for this. Because she could not pay bail, her daughter was also sent to a welfare home. She was unfortunately fractured due to osteoporosis recently, but no one has cured her."

"What an obvious unfairness," Breniak said with his hands. "You humans themselves have no ability to correct this situation. This is determined by your life form, and everyone just thinks about themselves and has no sympathy and compassion for your fellow citizens."

"So now, I have to redistribute the wealth of both." Breniak snapped his fingers.

Another picture appeared on the screen, which was a transfer notice from the bank interface. The 600,000 US dollars was transferred directly from the member of the parliamentary account to the mother's account.

Then there was another picture of the bail deposit, a lot of shopping orders for nutritional products, and a transaction contract for a luxury house.

"Look, I'll raise each of you well," Breniak said with a smile. "I know you talk about democracy, so if you agree with me to rule the earth, send me a text message. I'll post the text message every Sunday night."
