Marvel: Apocalyptic Beginning, a High-Level Game!

Chapter 71 He needs an anchor point

Yes, that's right.

This is what Zemo fears most.

To be honest, he could even accept that all of humanity would never return, and that everything would just remain as it is.

After all, as long as the Cold Dew solar term continues, the inexhaustible and unique material foundation will inevitably lead humanity to a higher level in the future!

Even if this catastrophe has wiped out most of humanity.

With such a small population size, a whole host of annoying problems can be avoided at the same time.

No one dared to shout about issues like gender or race at this time.

Zemo was confident that he could lead the development of human civilization on his own in the coming period.

And he only needs to solve one problem—

Cold Dew!

It wasn't just the industrial base they brought; they were practically a perfect foundation for civilization here. More importantly, it was the knowledge and vision they demonstrated.

He seems to possess some knowledge and common sense that humans simply cannot comprehend, knowledge that is sufficient for them to maximize their advantages and minimize their disadvantages in future development.

But more importantly...

"He's not a qualified superhero. As we said, he's a half-baked one, without any noble qualities or beliefs. He's just an ordinary person who possesses the power to change the world, but..."

Zemo stopped there, and looking at the superheroes who were gradually beginning to understand, he finally felt a little comforted.

"He began to feel lost, exhausted, and even wanted to quit."

Banner sighed; he could understand the other person's state.

After all, before the Battle of New York broke out, he had the same mindset: he just wanted to do things he liked, not come here to save the world, not to mention all the mess that followed, which made him want to die.

Everyone began to recall their meeting with Hanlu: she always seemed to have a sunny and cheerful demeanor, and was willing to trust everyone, giving away the magical items she had painstakingly created to any friend without any hesitation.

It's really hard to feel disgust towards such a thoughtful and kind person; even Banner thinks the other person is a very good person.

but--

"You know what? You could have stayed here because of your family, your beliefs, or your faith, become heroes, and protect everyone. But he didn't!"

Zemo tapped the table lightly, hoping to draw everyone's attention to himself.

"If you ask me, he lacks an anchor, a point of reference for being willing to fight for this world!"

Zemo no longer wanted to imagine what the world would be like if Hanlu really did nothing, just found a place to hide and could no longer be found by anyone.

Perhaps they can still develop, but it will take decades or even centuries; not to mention that the other side has always acted mysteriously, especially since something seemingly invisible is lingering around them and threatening the safety of the world at any moment.

What should I do?

Relying on that Thor, the seasoned brother-obsessed guy?

Or is it Icarus, that guy who never says a word?

What a joke.

Honestly, among this group of superheroes, he suddenly felt that Hanlu was the most important of all the heroes.

It's not just his ability, but also his mindset.

but.

"He needs a sense of belonging!"

John thought back to the time when he joined the army to serve his country, and how many new recruits were like that: bewildered, not knowing what they were fighting for.

At first, they thought they could act for justice and peace, but...

As the troubles in the Middle East unfolded, even he felt somewhat gloomy, until he found a new goal—

Captain America!

And now...

Zemo nodded in satisfaction.

"Every time he meets you, I can guess what he's thinking."

Just as he always said: "Living, this world is always in danger, with countless zombies, countless dead people, and that disgusting zombie queen, who threatens everyone's life."

So he was always uniting everyone! Bringing everyone together might give him a sense of security and a feeling of being "human".

But when it's all over, when the disaster that weighed on everyone's necks no longer continues, then...

Zemo mentioned a very interesting question from the East: What do you do if you encounter a difficult question you can't answer? Skip it and do the easier ones first. And then what?

Faced with a pile of challenging questions and fill-in-the-blank questions, how should he answer them?

Should we give up now?

It doesn't seem to work either.

Zemo fully understands his current situation—

For Hanlu, all five levels of needs have been met, except for the last one, which she has even experienced.

What terrifies them is that it's now humans! Or rather, the people of this world can't live without Hanlu, while Hanlu can simply pack up and leave.

This has absolutely nothing to do with him. He could go and live in a more peaceful, human-like civilization or planet, and even become their god.

He has no obligation to fight alongside them!

As a qualified, highly intelligent villain, he wouldn't rely on vague concepts like law or human glory to make his opponents work like slaves for him.

That's ridiculous!

He could guarantee that this seemingly nice guy, who could talk nicely to ordinary people, would definitely smash his own head to pieces the moment he heard him ordering him around in that kind of pretext, and then just walk away.

Therefore, he will not use any so-called public opinion, morality, or orders to bind him.

What he needs is a reason that would make the other person willingly fight for the world!

"Uh, so what can we do to keep him here? How about we find him a girlfriend?"

The Red Guard subconsciously glanced at his youngest daughter. Strictly speaking, if Hanlu were to become her son-in-law, he could accept it (even if it was a huge loss).

After all, although the other party is Asian, he is tall, handsome, and possesses all sorts of strange abilities. Moreover, he can conjure up some awesome magical items for me later.

At least I don't have to stand by and watch this Asian guy next to me anymore, fighting over some tiger charm.

Thinking about this, the Red Guard suddenly started daydreaming, until his daughter and wife kicked him together.

Seeing this silly goofball, Zemo couldn't help but rub his head.

Seriously, didn't you see the two stunningly beautiful ship girls beside him?

If he really wanted a girlfriend, he would have already had one. Why can't he just make himself what he wants?

"Given his power to alter reality, there are many things that are no longer necessary for him to pursue."

Therefore, we need something that can stir his emotions.

I'll take charge; you all cooperate with me.

Remember! Don't hold me back.

Zemo was unusually stern this time, and strangely enough, the superheroes were surprisingly willing to listen to the arrangements of this only one with a brain—

Even John cast a pleading look at everyone.
