Chapter 77 - Take the banknotes and fight the underwater people

At this time, the time has reached 21 o'clock in the evening.

The Atlanteans suddenly stopped attacking, but the fire in the city was still burning and could not stop.

The firelight lit up Gotham's night sky, as if an ancient bonfire party was being held.

The Atlanteans did not choose to continue the attack, but stayed where they were.

Maybe he was waiting for something, or maybe he was preparing for something.

Or maybe it was an attempt to torture the nerves of humans so that they would surrender without a fight.

All in all, this gave the human side a rare breather.

Now the entire military camp, from the captain to the soldiers, has lost all will to fight, and morale has reached its lowest level.

The senior officers of the Ministry of National Defense only came over to give a few token words of encouragement and then left in a hurry.

After all, turmoil has already occurred in North America, the stock market has plummeted, and riots have begun to occur in various places.

At this time, Ellis also had a huge headache. The situation in various parts of the country was like a chain reaction, making him very anxious.

"Sir, if we can't produce favorable information now, not until next year, but in just one week our Ministry of Finance may choose to resign collectively." Finance Minister John Snow reported helplessly.

"John, why don't I know this, but the question is, can you tell me how to create good news?" Ellis said helplessly.

In one hour, he answered five calls, all from people who really controlled huge resources behind North America.

At the same time, he got the news that if he could not find a solution within two days, then nuclear weapons would have to be used.

Could Ellis say no?
If he refuses, he may soon be asked to step down and replaced by someone who listens to them.

"I can only try my best to help you stabilize the situation and reduce the government's losses. You can't expect me to defeat those undersea people with money, right?" John Snow said helplessly, showing his hands.

"Wait, say it again!" Ellis said suddenly.

"I said, I can only do my best..."

"No, not this sentence, the last sentence!"

"I said, you can't expect me to defeat those underwater people with money, right?" John Snow repeated doubtfully.

"Yes, it's money!"

Ellis said excitedly: "Immediately notify all the Department of Defense cooperation, no, all arms dealers, as long as they can have weapons and equipment that can cause harm to the Atlanteans, all the purchase orders of the Department of Defense this year will be given to them!"

"If I can be re-elected, all orders for weapons and equipment during the next term will also be given to him!"

Swanwick on the side wanted to say something, but he wisely kept his mouth shut.

The Minister of Finance opened his mouth slightly, but immediately stood up and said: "Then I will allocate funds now to ensure that the Ministry of National Defense's payment orders are supplied at any time."

"Go ahead." Ellis waved his hand.

After John left, Swanwick said: "Sir, are you sure you want to do this?"

Ellis looked at Swann and said: "Those arms dealers must still have something at the bottom of the box. As long as I let out what I just said, wouldn't it be the best opportunity for them?"

As the Minister of Defense, Swanwick naturally knows that arms dealers will more or less have a few treasures at the bottom of the box.

Or it is something that is in the semi-finished state and cannot be fully mass-produced yet.

Including their subordinate laboratories, there will also be such semi-finished products, but this will cost money...

Ellis stood up and clapped his hands on the table and said: "If I don't use it, I will be removed from office and liquidated. So why don't I save the situation while I still have the power?"

Soon, arms dealers in North America got the news, and soon the Department of Defense received invitations for equipment testing from various arms companies.The next day, even the well-informed officials of the Ministry of National Defense had their eyes opened in the laboratories of major arms companies.

All kinds of equipment that had never been sold to them were now pouring out, like flowers blooming in spring.

Of course, this is not to blame for them hiding it before. After all, if they can win it, this will be all the orders of the Ministry of National Defense this year.

And if Ellis can win this war and be re-elected, all the orders for the next few years of his term will be in his pocket!
The profit is measured in hundreds of millions!It was enough to make them break their heads and cut off their heads to compete for it.

In order to gain momentum, some companies even forcibly display technological equipment that is still in the research stage before it can be materialized.

Of course, this is all thanks to Huang Yuan and the Kryptonian spacecraft he contributed.

Although except for Lex Group, the research progress of these arms dealers including the National Defense Laboratory is very slow.

However, relying on mutual communication and data exchange, they soon made progress that could be converted into actual benefits.

Physics, materials science, energy science and other subjects have made many breakthroughs during this period.

This shocked Ellis who got the news.

These damn guys were hidden before, and the FBI's undercover agents couldn't get much useful information. Unexpectedly, he blew up all of his order operations.

"Tell them that this Gotham City battlefield is the best testing ground. I will buy whoever's products are good!" Ellis gave his own reply.

After all, it's useless no matter how loud the cowhide is. You'll know if it's a mule or a horse after taking it out for a walk.

……

Soon, Tony got off the plane and flew directly over the outskirts of Gotham City.

Looking at the ruins of the city that were still burning even after a night, Tony frowned.

It's one thing to see it on the TV news, but it's another thing to feel it in person.

If the government had not evacuated the residents in advance, it is very likely that there would be a scene of corpses everywhere.

"These guys!"

Tony didn't know whether he was scolding the other party or himself, but his face was extremely ugly.

[Sir, you were photographed by the media. 】

At this time, Jarvis prompted in the armor.

Tony turned around and saw a screen appearing on the helmet panel.

Not far away from him, a helicopter from a media company was hovering outside Gotham City, pointing its camera at him.

"Follow them, there will be someone who can report our heroic appearance."

"Let's go, Jarvis, let's see if the people under the sea are so scary." After Tony Stark finished speaking, he sprayed tail flames from his feet and hands and rushed towards the assembly point of Atlantis.

"Who is coming?"

Orm, who was sitting on the throne, opened his eyes, looked at the red and gold armor floating in the sky and asked.

Tony said sternly: "I am Iron Man. Your actions have seriously affected the property and life safety of ordinary people. Please retreat immediately!"

Om immediately laughed and said: "Are you kidding me? Let's go back?"

He glanced at the army behind him and said, "Even if I agree, they won't agree, right?"
