"Neither miracles nor magic are free. Sooner or later you will have to pay for your extravagance."

Casillas's words were like a curse that deeply entangled Wanda's heart, and she also knew that she could not escape at all.

The prerequisite for not repaying debt is that you have the ability to repay the debt, and the other prerequisite is that you have not sold yourself.

Gu Yi's identity as an old lady is not only based on her own strength, but also because she has never signed any contract to sell herself.

At least those contracts canceled each other out under her clever control, and even the Ancient One would not provoke big guys like Cytorak and Sithorne.

Wanda does have unimaginable talents and abilities, but unfortunately, she stepped on all the traps that she shouldn't have stepped on.

Wanda screamed and got up from the bed. After panting for a long time, she calmed down her fear and let out a long breath.

She lifted the quilt and stood up to drink some water to relieve the thirst in her mouth. She opened the door and walked out of the corridor. The old floorboards made a creaking sound.

The shadow cast by the corridor is dark and secretive, and in the darkness whose depth seems invisible, whispers and uncertain shadows stretch out their tentacles.

Wanda filled the cup with water, and there was an unsettling atmosphere in the shadows. The dim light only illuminated half of the wall, while the darkness on the other half engulfed everything.

Zhizhizhizhi~~~

The sound of mice scratching the wall came from the wall, and Wanda frowned slightly. There was a three-centimeter crack in the wall, and the sound seemed to come from there.

Wanda put down the water glass and walked closer. The gap seemed to be expanding as Wanda approached, and the deep darkness was invisibly expanding its claws, bringing with it a turbid darkness.

A sense that made her feel sick made Wanda stop. She turned around sharply and saw a figure 'emerging' in the mire-like darkness.

The black shadow was like turbid and unidentifiable black mud, chaotic and carrying a disgusting stench. The more you looked at it, the more terrifying it became.

"You...can't escape"

A faint voice came from the mouth of the black shadow, and every word and every sentence was like a call from the mysterious hell, carrying indescribable mental fluctuations that destroyed the spirit.

"Giving up doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

Mocking whispers came from the other side of the door. Wanda turned her head, and blood-red smoke came out from the crack of the open door. Behind the door, a scarlet devil was looking at her with a sinister smile.

"No one can destroy my contract!!!"

The shattering sound composed of the roaring thunder and the sky was emitted from the sky. The moonlight outside the window turned scarlet, and the holes on the scarlet moon seemed to form a shadow, roaring at Wanda.

Faced with this terrifying scene that could destroy the sanity of ordinary people in an instant, Wanda did not show any fear.

She just...watched all this numbly, and then returned to the room.

She knew that this was just an illusion, just a nightmare. They couldn't hurt themselves, they could only torture themselves through these unsavory things.

Wanda has seen this scene many times, and even when she used the Book of Fear unscrupulously, she had seen a lot of darkness.

To put it another way, she was already a mage with an infinitely high SAN value and had seen many indescribable things, but what she feared was only the price she had not paid.

As Wanda closed the door, this horrific scene disappeared like smoke.

Just don't look at them.

Let yourself forget all this, and maybe... you won't have to pay the price.

146.AI supervision system

"The intelligent AI system I designed is harmless."

While Tony was busy constructing the data composed of countless complicated codes, he explained to Colson and Natasha next to him

"'Brother Eyes' will be responsible for supervising all public areas in major cities across the United States, and using big data analysis to supervise every registered citizen in the country and people who enter the United States. At the same time, through continuously optimized algorithms, all resources and The bills are calculated in an integrated manner to ensure that every dime of each tax payment can be utilized to the maximum extent.”

"The main component of it will be the coverage signal network composed of the four satellites I launched into the sky, but this is only the first step. Then I will make the monitoring network formed by picometer chips cover every inch of the United States to achieve AI has absolute control over all dangerous information!”

"Then what if he loses control? Do we have to deal with Skynet?" Natasha raised her eyebrows.

"Get all the memories of Cameron's movies out of your heads!"

Tony looked at these two laymen impatiently. As a leader and leader in the field of artificial intelligence, he was tired of explaining all this to these illiterate people who had only seen movies.

"'Brother Eye' is just a pure supervision and big data determination system. It is a gestalt network composed of countless regional network coverage. It will not be integrated into any Department of Defense intranet-and don't you know the Pentagon Are the networks in these places completely disconnected from the outside world now? In order to prevent Wakanda's omnic army, we have done the greatest rest and assessment of network security in the United States! Super weapons are not as simple as knocking two To the point where you can hijack it with just a few lines of code!”

"But the AI ​​system you designed has violated the privacy rights of everyone in the United States!" Colson said righteously

"This is against the spirit of the U.S. Constitution!"

"So he won't go deep into supervising other people's privacy issues." Tony waved his hand impatiently.

"Whatever you do in your own home will not be detected by Brother Eyes. He will only supervise all public areas! I am much more reliable here than the FBI and your SHIELD! But he will use big data analysis and big data The range of surveillance coverage also includes photography devices with enough pixels and the world's strongest micro-expression analysis capabilities to achieve nearly 100% detection of the case! I can assure you that my brother's eyes can solve the case that Sherlock Holmes cannot solve in less than three minutes. Catch the murderer!"

Tony actually likes detective novels, but unfortunately, this genre and the detective itself are gradually disappearing with the passage of time.

After all, with the development of surveillance cameras and the gradual improvement of torture detection capabilities, almost all the soil for the existence of the detective profession has disappeared, and original mystery novels are now almost extinct. This is all due to the great progress in criminal forensics.

Of course, Tony has the confidence to ensure that his brother's eyes can detect criminal cases with the greatest accuracy. After all, if a criminal can deceive his AI, it will be even more impossible for normal people to see through it.

Natasha and Colson looked at each other. After a moment of silence, Natasha said

"Okay Tony, I know your AI is very powerful, but this intensive surveillance plan you set up on all public officials..."

"This is what our Star-Spangled Banner idol asked for, it has nothing to do with me!" Tony interrupted

But he paused and looked at the two agents in front of him with a strange look, playing with the taste.

"But I don't think it's a bad idea."

The main target of the intelligent AI that Steve asked Tony to create is to supervise and control those public officials who have been re-elected.

The people of the motherland cannot stand the inefficient use of resources and extravagant profligacy in the United States. He is tired of the nonsense of spending thirty thousand dollars to buy a sheep - he wants to put an end to all waste of resources!

After all, the hegemonic system of the US dollar is now inevitably about to collapse. Unless they plan to fight a world war, they must learn to tighten their belts and get by!

And let’s be honest, Americans’ living standards haven’t declined at all.

With Stark's Ark reactor technology, as well as light nuclear fusion and other energy technologies provided free of charge by Mu Feng, the productivity, resources and energy within the United States are not a problem at all. As for supplies, it is not a problem at all. The black people in the Marvel world The accumulation of science and technology has long been able to bring the whole world to the level of communism.

It can be said that everyone's life will not be worse than before or even devalued to some extent. This kind of "bad" is only targeted at those extravagant guys!

For those vampires who waste resources, play with finance, and are accustomed to sitting in the office and typing on the keyboard to trick the common people into spending every penny in their pockets, and then harvest them away!

Steve's starting point is simply the absolute utilization and integration of resources, and Tony fully agrees with this view.

He always believes that public officials should be subject to stricter control and monitoring than ordinary people, and should be held to higher standards.

Of course, salaries can also be adjusted accordingly. If corruption could be eradicated, there would still be room for a five-fold increase in the overall salary of the civil service system.

Tony Stark is a man who advocates freedom, but at this point, he definitely supports Steve!

"You always shout and trample on freedom and freedom, but are your rights and freedoms equal?"

Tony directly interrupted Coulson, who was about to say something else, and said very rudely to the two agents.

"Aren't you and your black-headed boss just privilege holders? But you have paid at least the same level as your power, but what else do those other useless officials do besides dawdling?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I said it wrong. Those who are messing around are considered good. How many of those public officials will not use small calculations to benefit themselves? Bastards who have ability but no moral integrity, have moral integrity but no ability. The old stubbornness, and the trash with no integrity and ability!"

Tony has also studied politics, and he deeply understands that the biggest reason why all political systems cannot be relatively perfect is the lack of an absolutely fair regulatory system.

Almost most countries will set up a supervision system outside of their political system, but the problem supervision system itself is also part of the political system. As long as there are people involved, corruption is inevitable.

It is unreliable to let people supervise people, so in this case, let AI supervise it.

Starting from the iron-clad laws and regulations of every input, achieving maximum supervision and control within the rules, this is Tony's goal!

"But if you continue to help others like this, Captain... Steve will turn into a dictatorial tyrant sooner or later!"

Coulson, knowing that he couldn't win Tony's argument, changed his direction and spoke seriously.

"So what?" Tony looked at Colson and said quietly.

"I also hate dictatorships and I hate kings more. I hate the combination of the two. But at this stage, he is our only optimal solution, isn't it?"

"Do you want me to wait for you to continue arguing with each other, shirking responsibilities to each other, and then go together to please the voters, and finally get a loser who can only deceive people to come to power and lead us?"

“But at least they’re elected!”

"Oh, you don't know how easy it is to manipulate votes, right?" Tony sneered.

"And do you plan to let our democratically elected useless president talk to foreigners about human rights and freedom or about financial trade?"

"You obviously know everything, but you choose to bury your head in the sand and act like an ostrich!"

Tony looked at these two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents with arrogance and disdain. This was what he looked down on most about this group of people.

They may be the people in the United States who have seen these issues most thoroughly, and they are even part of this system themselves.

Unfortunately, they don't seem to have the ideas and courage to correctly understand the problem and make changes.

The system Steve proposed to build was not perfect, and he himself had a tendency to become a dictator - but so what? At least he has made good changes, and at least he is willing to shoulder the responsibility in this increasingly fucked-up era where aliens and all kinds of ghosts are causing trouble every day!

Tony is really fed up with those guys who have no opinions, no opinions, no brains, and just shout about working together when they encounter problems.

"If you want to convince me to help you deal with Steve, then get lost!"

Tony issued an eviction order without mercy, but in fact he also knew the purpose of these two guys to find him

Colson wanted to say something else, but Natasha stopped him, looked at Tony and said softly

"So Iron Man, will you choose to side with the people of the motherland?"

"...I am only responsible for creating this AI." Tony shook his head irritably.

"Now, get out of my house!"

"Father, my Lord, on earth as in heaven, forgive us, as we forgive those who sin against us. And to you be the glory..."

Washington Capitol Columbarium

Dozens of American presidents have been buried here, as well as those American greats. These people were buried here after a state funeral.

Of course, after being ravaged by Wakanda, there was only an empty tomb left here.

But this is nothing. For most people, the only meaning of existence here is to serve as a tourist attraction for people to watch.

But today, this long-vacant state funeral site welcomed its first resident after its reconstruction.

Steve watched from a distance as the dark coffin was slowly lowered into the soil, and the first handful of dust was sprinkled on it, silently.

"She kept asking where you were before she left."

Sharon Carter walked up to Steve holding a black umbrella and said softly

"You can actually hear her voice, right? Even if you are halfway around the world, you can still hear the voice calling for help on the other side."

"She shouldn't be buried here." Steve said softly.

"She said that after she died she would rather return to England, to Hampton..."

"She dedicated her life to the United States." Sharon's face was expressionless, but her clenched fists revealed the anger she endured.

"But maybe she doesn't want that." Steve said softly.

"She has been waiting for you for seventy years!"

"But I don't want her to wait for me." Steve responded calmly to the excited Sharon

"Believe me Sharon, I hope Peggy can get the good life that belongs to her more than anyone else... I missed the promise I made with her for seventy years, and I can't repay her even a single bit during her lifetime."

"But you didn't even fulfill her wish before she died!"

"Because I have more important things to do." Steve looked into Sharon's eyes and said calmly.

"The black criminals who worship Mad King Eric's Wakandan fanatics are wreaking havoc in Los Angeles. The holder of the Lantern Ring is secretly accumulating power. I must catch the green amoeba released by Nick Fury. Even this snow has …”

Steve received a solid punch from Sharon in the face. He took it with his face without hesitation, and even deliberately softened his face to bear it.

"You don't deserve her wait!"

Sharon turned and left. Steve looked at the killings heading towards Peggy's grave and turned around in silence.

He does have more important things to do. The entire United States is waiting for him. The responsibilities on his shoulders are no longer something that can be measured emotionally.

But it was undeniable that Steve was indeed a little distracted.

He was always sharp, but because of his lack of concentration, he didn't even notice that something was wrong with Sharon.

He didn't notice the deep resentment in her eyes.

After Paige's funeral, in the corner of the auditorium, Sharon opened her cell phone and dialed a number.

After several transfers, the number was connected, and Sharon tapped her phone to type out a Morse code.

"You have gone too far."
