I Am Gwen's Spider-Man Mentor
Chapter 187 Anchor Agreement
As if shocked by this huge and crazy plan, Gwen suddenly clenched her fists. For a long time, the girl keenly grasped the main theme of Raymond Xu's plan: "So, everything you do is to make Starlink, a plan that can protect the entire earth, run successfully, right? ?”
"Yes!" Raymond replied decisively.
"I suddenly understood why you didn't want to tell me..." Gwen took a few steps back in despair, "The Starlink Project will make anyone crazy... Mastering it means mastering the means to deter the world. By then , everyone on this planet has to kneel before the controller of 'Starlink' to survive."
Thinking of the huge price Raymond paid to advance this plan, he has been carrying these responsibilities forward - so he always has a gloomy face, as if there is a barrier to everyone... At this moment, Gwen Stewart Xi finally understood that this "wall-facer" had a big plan!
But the girl only felt chills all over her body at this time. This was not because she did not trust Raymond Xu, but because she felt an ancient fear - which was inherited from human ancestors. Facing top predators of fear.
The Raymond Xu in front of him was just an ordinary person, but his appetite and vision were so astonishing that even the superhero Gwen Stacy felt that she had never been an insignificant person in front of him. little girl.
"I..." Gwen wanted to pull out her wrist, but Raymond did not let go at all. The girl became a little lost for a moment, and she lowered her head: "I want to stop you... but I... I shouldn't stop you.伱……”
The pair of water-colored eyes that almost always have a sad undertone were raised, and the girl's words were very serious:
"Assuming what you said is true, 'Starlink' is the earth's only means of defense against cosmic threats... But if 'Starlink' falls into the hands of any person, any organization...even any country, it will become their A tool for wreaking havoc on all mankind.”
"I..." At this point, Spider Woman became hesitant and entangled again. Gwen, who had just been questioning Raymond Xu, didn't even dare to look into his eyes at this time. The girl slowly described her thoughts, as if talking to herself:
"This is a...peerless weapon, but..."
Gwen didn't even know how she should look at Raymond at this time, so she just avoided her boyfriend's black eyes, her eyes wandered around, and asked incoherently:
"Oppenheimer and Einstein also regretted inventing the atomic bomb. Scientists all regretted that they had to promote the development of weapons... But why... no, I shouldn't ask this... I mean..."
Gwen finally understood her emotions. The girl raised her head, and the fluctuations in her aqua eyes stopped. She stabilized her heartbeat and tone, and asked softly: "I mean, wouldn't you be guilty of creating such a weapon?" And do you feel...uneasy?"
"Yes, uneasy." Raymond answered her succinctly, and then the professor explained lengthyly:
"Of course I'm uneasy. I know what 'Starlink' means. Each improved Ark reactor exceeds the power of mankind's most advanced large-scale nuclear power plant at present. There are 40,000 reactors... I almost placed one outside the earth. The weapon system is supplied with the total energy that Type I civilization can use, and this attack system can continue to increase its power as the number of reactors increases... there is no upper limit!"
"In other words." Raymond looked seriously at Gwen's water-colored eyes - as if that was the only power that could make him settle down: "The total power that can be used by the entire earth and all human civilization is more than If you don’t go to Star Chain…even if it’s just the attack power of the early version of Star Chain!”
"But there are two different things between not having a sword in your hand and having a sword but not using it!"
“What makes me even more uneasy is that when the threats in the universe fall on the people of the earth, we have no choice but to rely on a few superheroes... Therefore, we cannot restrict any behavior of these superheroes. We cannot arrest them or try them, we can only count on their moral self-discipline!”
"Superheroes will proliferate, and they will become the norm in the next era. Without my intervention, mankind will leave global security in the hands of a few people, allowing them to act according to their own will... a private relationship between a few people Hatred alone can dismantle the earth’s only defense.”
As if regardless of the fact that the Gwen Stacy in front of him was one of the superheroes, Raymond Xu recalled the plot of Avengers Civil War and looked at Spider-Gwen in front of him: "I don't know you. Can you accept all this? In addition to fighting against extraterrestrial threats, I also want to give mankind...all ordinary people, and all governments that are still functioning normally..."
"A tool to check and balance superheroes!"
"I can believe Gwen Stacy, but society cannot trust your judgment without going through any procedures and rules. You said that your power needs to be restrained, so you never kill... I think this is a This is an inefficient constraint, we need some... more efficient means."
"Superheroes can be humanity's blade against threats, but they cannot and should not be legally higher than any human being. We can make laws that only belong to superheroes and relax their authority. But they still have to be responsible for every one of their actions. Responsible."
As he spoke, as if he realized that everything he did was an offense to Gwen's identity as "Spider Woman", Raymond Xu lowered his head and his voice also lowered:
"You are Gwen Stacy, you are Spider-Woman. It would be great if you were the only superhero in the world... Why should I bother..."
The two of them fell silent together for a long time——
"I'm... not that trustworthy, am I?" Gwen chuckled softly, finally breaking the silent atmosphere between the two: "You won't do it just because I am your girlfriend, Just believe that if there was only Spider-Woman, superheroes wouldn’t need checks and balances, right?”
"You are too selfish, my thunder." Before Raymond could answer, the girl gently hugged him and whispered in his ear: "I am very grateful that you can say this to me... "
"While this plan is crazy, it's also a good one."
Raymond waited for her "but":
"But, I don't need to tell you, you also know...the loopholes in this plan...for example, who should give control to you? Superheroes can't be trusted, can ordinary people be trusted? And...the governments of big countries Are you willing to let such a plan develop and have your own words and deeds also be restrained and deterred by the 'Star Chain'?"
"There are still many questions..." Gwen gently scratched Raymond's nose, "But I still think that humans need the 'Star Chain' and humans need a sharp sword to protect themselves, just like you said, Without Spider-Woman, New York City would be occupied by the Kingpin without any hindrance... Without Starlink, the Earth would be vulnerable."
"You said, 'Star Chain' is humanity's check and balance on superheroes." Gwen finally pulled her wrist out of Raymond's hand. She held the professor's shoulders with both hands, and her blue and black eyes looked at each other calmly:
"Then Gwen Stacy will also be Raymond Xu's check and balance——"
"I will watch you advance and build Starlink, and I will not reveal any secrets to the outside world... But as long as you dare to show the slightest idea of using Starlink to achieve your own goals, use Starlink 'The thought of gaining power... I will stop you, and I will do my best to stop you!"
As if she had made the greatest determination, Gwen's heart was about to shrink together. The girl clenched her fists and said with difficulty: "Even if I have to... kill you..."
"If you agree to my terms..."
"I agree!" Before Gwen could finish speaking, Raymond stepped forward and hugged her - the girl did not resist, but was still held by him, listening to what he said:
"I said, you are my anchor. I choose you because I hope you will check and balance me... If one day comes, Raymond will no longer try to make society better and people safer. Raymond, please don’t show mercy to him!”
"Please..." Gwen hugged Raymond gently, "Don't be like that, I will be sad, okay?"
"Gwen..." Raymond did not respond to Gwen. He just touched the girl's blond hair and gently kissed her smooth forehead.
At this time, the professor was thinking about something more practical. He warned the girl: "The secret of 'Star Chain' cannot be revealed to the outside world at all... I will do my best technically to disguise it until the entire system successfully goes to heaven... You You have to keep your mouth shut too, you know?”
"I know..." Gwen nodded, "'Star Chain' is too dangerous, it cannot fall into anyone's hands!"
After the two confirmed the agreement with each other, they finally let go of their arms. Raymond took out the remote control of the TV, turned on the TV, and switched to a channel that was playing a news program:
"Gwen, come listen."
The girl came back to her senses and looked at the live broadcast box next to the female host, where a huge rocket was piercing the sky——
"The first rocket of the Falcon rocket carrying 60 Starlink satellites was successfully launched into orbit at the Cape Canaveral Rocket Launch Base. Dr. Zhao Hailun, deputy project director, said that it relied on the advanced separation technology developed under the leadership of Raymond Xu. With the technology, all 60 communication satellites have entered the predetermined orbit and the network has been successfully established. People will soon be able to receive signals from 'Starlink' anywhere in the world!"
"Today is the opening day of the Stark Expo." The professor looked at the huge advertisement outside the window and added softly.
How should I put it? Everyone can feel that this Gwen is becoming less and less like the Gwen in the movie... I think this is the growth she should have, but of course the OOC will become bigger and bigger from here on... But she should also become more mature, responsible, and even leadership-like.
I don’t know if readers will feel that such a change is inconsistent with Gwen’s character, or even hate writing it this way. If so, please point it out.
Finally, the original plot was not to reveal the secret of Starlink so early at all. It was supposed to be used as a trump card to suddenly reveal itself in a big crisis and shock the world - but also shock the readers. But if I continue to hide it, readers won’t read any more...
well……
