The large-scale evacuation began and everything was going according to plan.
The news about the bat-headed monster finally triggered a response from the US officials, and ships from the nearest San Diego Naval Base were already heading this way.
In response, Luke just sent Tony another black man ??? emoticon.
Tony just spread his hands and smiled bitterly.
These are all emoticons that Mindy posted in the Ursa Minor group, and they are now gradually becoming popular in the group.
Luke had nothing to say.
It should be that the US officials feel that the testing of the two F4s is not comprehensive enough, and now they want to use ships for testing, and it seems that the Air Force Regiment from the Army is also coming.
The army, navy and air force are all ready, except for a Marine Corps directly under the president.
There's nothing we can do about it.
No matter how dangerous the United States is, Congress will never allow the president to have too much direct military power.
It is a matter of principle that good resources would rather be given to pigs or dogs than to the Marine Corps.
Luke was too lazy to worry about the losses of the navy. Maybe they were just hoping to break some of their ships this time and then build a few new ones.
No construction, no profit.
No profits, no kickbacks.
This is a true saying.
The generals and commanders of the U.S. Navy, Army and Air Force are greedy for even the cost of customizing water cups and the construction and operation of military hospitals. There is no reason for them not to take a bite of the fatter piece of meat, which is weapons procurement.
After all, Tony is a guy who can't sit still, and he has no interest in arguing with the authorities.
He just threw all that nonsense about asking him to withdraw and letting the official forces take over out of his mind.
Whether the troops enter is an official matter and does not require Tony's permission. This is obviously a trap to share responsibility later.
Besides, the US officials are trustworthy, even sows can climb trees.
The most likely place these troops would come into play when they enter San Francisco is by shooting the rioters.
Assisted evacuation? The free American people will not accept that.
Standing on the Golden Gate Bridge, Tony didn't even bother to pay attention to the vehicles speeding past behind him from time to time.
Although evacuating from here is very dangerous, it is indeed easier to leave San Francisco in a short time and enter the less crowded Sausalito, or simply go camping in Golden Gate National Park.
As for the San Francisco-Oakland Bridge, the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge, and the Dumbarton Bridge, they were all so crowded with traffic that they couldn't run at all.
Most of the passing vehicles sped up when they saw Veronica standing near the south end of the bridge.
Anything that can make Iron Man mobilize this behemoth is not a trivial matter.
But there is always a shortage of people who like to watch the show and do nothing. Many people still parked their cars to take pictures and posted F2F, indicating that they are "with" Iron Man.
Fortunately, there is no traffic jam here, and Tony is too lazy to care about these guys.
After hanging out with Luke for so long, he was also affected.
For those who insist on seeking death, their needs can be fully met.
Superheroes are not these people’s biological fathers, so there is no need to pamper them.
Moreover, he is busy improving the algorithm of mental access, striving to achieve stable transmission of images and signals.
Luke and the Deep Sea Mark Armor started watching the "Monster Movie", which has a very high research value.
Veronica itself was not developed for underwater combat, and Tony certainly didn't want to go into the sea to stake out the situation, so of course he could only change the quality of the "live broadcast".
It was as if the inspiration for cheating had burst out again. With the continuous adjustment of the program, the live broadcast quality quickly changed from 180P to 720P.
Although Tony was still not satisfied, it was barely enough.
If you want to improve further, it will take a lot of time, which will delay your research time.
Luke also rushed to make two new drones in Space No. 2 using the equipment he had redesigned and released them.
The full start of the map that the Bat Squad is best at was finally restored, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now we could only communicate through language and text within the team, which was really inconvenient. It felt like a lot of energy was wasted.
But at this moment, Luke frowned: "There is something unusual 200 kilometers to the west."
Tony: "Let me see."
Luke shared past data, which was an ocean monitor dropped by a transport plane released by the first-level clone not long ago.
These were originally made for monitoring giant octopuses, but now he was using them.
The electromagnetic interference from the bat-headed monster would destroy them, but it would also reveal their presence.
Today, there has been a misunderstanding of one head turning into two heads, and he doesn't want to cause another misunderstanding of two heads turning into four heads.
However, the abnormal data just discovered by the monitor was not affected by electromagnetic interference and was transmitted back intact.
Tony replied quickly: "I really want to ask you if there is something wrong with the data, but it is unlikely. You can take a look at it yourself. I want to be quiet."
Luke looked at the data sent back and replied after a moment of silence: "I also want to ask if you calculated it wrong, but this possibility is also not high."
Tony: "What do you think? Do we need to intercept in advance?"
Luke frowned and thought, unable to make up his mind for a moment.
He was not sure whether taking action now would cause an extreme reaction from the two bat-headed monsters.
The evacuation of San Francisco was not as quick.
After all, the American people who love freedom and don't want to be controlled by others, the evacuation efficiency is really not high.
"Wait." He finally made the decision.
No one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes.
After the Ultron incident, Tony was a little hesitant when faced with such a major decision, so he gave the decision-making power to Luke.
Luke, however, did not have such complicated thoughts. He thought that waiting was more cost-effective and he did not mind giving up a bit.
After a while, Tony sent another message asking, "Are you really not going to do it? This new guy seems to be even more powerful."
Luke looked indifferent: "Its body shape is obviously different from those two bat-headed monsters, and it doesn't have the most troublesome electromagnetic interference. They may not be in the same group."
Tony: "What if? It appeared at such a coincidence and is moving towards here quickly. How about I go and try it first?"
Luke frowned and thought for a moment, then finally said, "Let Beidou go. He's more suitable than you."
Tony: "What? How is he more suitable than me?"
Luke: "He has psychic abilities, you don't."
Tony: “…”
I hate it most that you guys with superpowers are playing with technology! A certain young master cursed in his heart and could only give up.
Beidou used mental resistance to help them get rid of Wanda's mental interference, and Tony really had to appreciate it.
He wants to save face, so he cannot be shameless.
While the two were talking, the Beidou armor quickly rose to the surface of the water and flew westward.
Two minutes later, Tony looked at the picture shared by Luke: "… Are we watching a children's cartoon? Why does this thing appear?"
Luke ignored the young master's words and carefully looked at the huge creature shaking its head more than 200 meters away. He suddenly said, "Why do I think it's a little... cute?"
Tony: …
Actually, what Luke wanted to say was "ugly and cute", but this concept was difficult to explain to Tony.
In the young master's opinion, ugly things are just garbage and have absolutely nothing to do with cuteness.
But Luke's aesthetic sense was distorted by many spectators in his previous life.
He really thought that the big monster in front of him was ugly but a little cute.
