Chapter 102: Good news, the aliens are very retarded, bad news, we didn't win! [Three more chapters, please subscribe]
"We won!"
Captain America Rogers looked at the surrounding urban environment that had turned into ruins. It seemed that only now did he finally accept that they had finally won and defeated the army of this terrible alien civilization.
"Great job, guys, great job. I think we should not work tomorrow and take a day off. Have you ever eaten Turkish kebab? There is a restaurant about two blocks away. I don't know how it tastes, but I want to try it!" Tony Stark said.
"We're not done yet!" said Thor.
Tony Stark said, "Let's have barbecue later!"
The next moment, the scene changed, and it was a group of Avengers members eating Turkish kebabs in a barbecue restaurant with despair on their faces.
His face was full of 'happy' and 'I like it'.
The video ends here.
Tony Stark held his forehead and smiled bitterly. He could almost feel that the little easter egg at the end of the video was full of Lin Feng's bad taste. He must have done it on purpose.
The intention was to let them know how bad this Turkish kebab tastes.
"Emmm, Tony, your taste is really average..." Hawkeye Barton said.
Everyone nodded, and deep down, they had secretly crossed out Turkish kebab from their dinner list.
That look of despair was too destructive to them.
"I haven't eaten it either, and I've heard that there are always pitfalls when eating!" Tony Stark said unconvinced.
"Tony, we are truly impressed by you now. I never thought you would make such a righteous decision in the end. No wonder Lin Feng said that you are a mortal being comparable to a god."
Black Widow Natasha spoke.
"That is the shining point in my personality." Tony Stark showed a smug expression on his face.
Although I was a bit reckless in the other timeline, it has come to that point and to be honest I have no choice.
Although I feel a bit sorry for Pepper Potts, the problem is that if the alien army is allowed to spread, all that I want to protect will be gone.
"But these politicians are crazy. They actually dropped a nuclear bomb on New York!" Hill said.
Although New York survived in the end, the mere possibility of this happening is enough to make people gasp.
"If it really comes to a life-and-death situation, what would happen if there were ten New Yorks, let alone one?" Captain America Rogers said.
As a soldier, and a veteran who personally experienced World War II, he still has a typical war mindset. The biggest difference between war thinking and peace thinking is that peace thinking always considers how many people will sacrifice.
The war mentality is about ensuring final victory and protecting the majority at the expense of the minority, which is normal.
He just couldn't quite reconcile the Tony Stark in front of him with the selfless, self-sacrificing Tony Stark in the video. Was this the same person?
Could this be a person?
You tell me, this is Tony Stark?
This guy is fucking eight years old, oh no, this guy is that playboy?
Everyone thought about it and felt that Captain America Rogers' idea was correct. If they ignored their entire wealth and the fact that all their relatives and friends were in New York, then this was very true.
If the alien army spreads out, it seems that there is no difference whether we die under nuclear bombs or are killed by aliens.
"But isn't the Chitauri's technological development a bit biased?" Tony Stark said. "First, they don't seem to have the ability to jump through wormholes or fly faster than light. They have to rely on us humans on Earth to prepare such a device for them.
Secondly, how come such a large Chitauri mothership doesn't even have an air defense system? How come a single nuclear bomb wiped them out completely?"
Tony Stark still found it unbelievable when he said this. As a race that can cross star levels, even if you don't have an energy shield, you should at least have a basic air defense system. You can't be hit so easily by a nuclear bomb.
This is a bit too biased.
Even if you put it in the shoes of the major powers on Earth, their fleets would not be without any air defense capabilities, but they could be defeated like this.
"And why do they feel like the Zerg in science fiction novels? They only have one mothership, and all their consciousness is on that mothership. Once it is destroyed, all contact will be lost. So these Chitauri soldiers are actually unmanned robots?" Tony Stark said in disbelief.
This kind of unmanned robots, unmanned aircraft and the like are also very popular concepts on Earth. In particular, they have begun to be developed in order to greatly reduce casualties among soldiers.
But even so, it is impossible for countries to develop a product that will suddenly lose all its combat effectiveness due to the inability to connect to the Internet.
Are all soldiers cloud-connected?
Don't they have processors inside their bodies?
No mission saved?
Have you ever considered the possibility of not being able to connect to the internet?
"So I think I've found a way to deal with these aliens. We don't even need nuclear bombs to destroy their motherships. We just need to develop a signal shielding processor to cut off their signals directly. Then we can destroy every one of them..." Tony Stark continued complaining.
They look different, but they serve the same purpose.
He originally thought that the Chitauri mothership would be very difficult to deal with, but what was the result?
He was completely disappointed. How could they not even have basic defensive capabilities? They couldn't even intercept a nuclear bomb developed by a level 7 Earthling.
This whole thing feels a bit outrageous.
It's not as good as the Patriot series that is everywhere. At least hundreds of Patriot missiles can stop this nuclear bomb.
If you say that the other party was caught off guard, then Tony Stark would laugh even more. You are an interstellar civilization that has conquered countless civilizations, and you should have very rich experience in warfare. How come you have never encountered a nuclear bomb or a long-range missile before?
I totally don't understand.
So he could only understand that the development of these Chitauri was completely biased and they were on the wrong track.
Otherwise it would be difficult to explain the fluctuating combat effectiveness of these Chitauri.
You may say they are not powerful, but they can easily defeat the US army. Even the superheroes are in a mess. They are exhausted after just one hour. If they are given a little more time, it will be no difficulty for them to wipe out the Avengers.
Even the US government was so cruel as to blow up its own New York.
But you have to think about how powerful they were. Their mothership, the kind that could roam the universe, didn't even have an early warning system or an air defense system, and it was just blown up.
Their soldiers and their spaceships are like NPCs controlled by the Internet. If the Internet is disconnected, they will be doomed. They don't even have a program for independent combat.
If there is such a thing, even if the space rift is cut off and they cannot get support from their homeland, it will be very difficult to just clean up the Chitauri soldiers and spaceships that have already arrived.
So if you say they can't do it, the humans on Earth really can't match their two tricks. But if you say they can do it, I feel aggrieved, unconvinced, and angry.
It's really impossible to advance or retreat, it's so frustrating.
I can only say that the technology tree of these Chitauri is completely wrong. For example, these Chitauri soldiers don't even have reliable armor, and their war weapons are made in the shape of a big fish. It looks fancy, but it has no use other than proving that their anti-gravity technology is very advanced.
The Chitauri clearly have a high level of scientific knowledge, but in terms of the application of it in warfare, their level is at most similar to that of today's Earthlings.
It's just that their technology is more advanced that the resistance of the Earth's army is completely no match for them.
He was confident that if Earth's technology could one day develop to a level similar to that of the Chitauri, it would be enough to defeat the Chitauri and teach them the art of war.
It really feels like a waste of resources. With such a high level of science, the final product is actually something like this.
It's like fighting World War I or World War II using modern warfare equipment.
In Tony Stark's imagination, it should be common for a civilization capable of cross-stellar conquest to be equipped with the kind of armor he has now, which should be of a normal level. But when he looks at those Chitauri soldiers, he starts to wonder what level of civilization they are.
If the Earth civilization can develop to level one, it will not be worse than them!
It's really infuriating, funny and helpless.
What's funny is that the opponent is so outrageous and useless.
What's infuriating is that we can't even beat such a useless opponent. Isn't that worse than being mentally retarded?
So now he feels that the good news is that the Chitauri's technology tree is wrong and their performance is very stupid.
Bad news, these stupid aliens defeated the US military and almost conquered the earth.
"If it's my opinion, if it has developed to that level, there should at least be an energy shield, but they don't seem to think about it." Tony Stark said.
"But we have to be thankful that they don't have such ability. Their technology tree is misplaced. Otherwise, how could we defeat them? We have no chance of winning at all." Black Widow Natasha said.
"That's right!"
Tony Stark nodded, but his expression didn't ease much. He was never one to pin his hopes on his opponent making mistakes.
Because that was a bit too humiliating for him.
Moreover, these are just the Chitauri, what about other cosmic civilizations?
Does everyone have to hope that their technology tree is wrong?
Ultimately, strengthening yourself is the most important thing.
