Reed Stacy frowned.

"We should be looking for..."

"Looking for people will alert the enemy, Mr. President."

The general said in a deep voice: "That person only gave us twenty-four hours, twenty-four hours, either they die, or we die. To be honest, Mr. President, I don't want to be implicated because of something I never participated in, or even knew about, leading to my death for no reason. How about you, Mr. President?"

Reed Stacy didn't speak after hearing this.

After a while.

Under the general's gaze, his expression was solemn, and his movements were also very solemn as he nodded.

"I understand, I authorize you and your National Guard to carry out this rescue operation."

"Received!"

The general heard this, didn't hesitate at all, directly gave a standard salute to Reed Stacy, and then turned around and quickly summoned his men.

"You heard the President's authorization."

"Catch them."

"I will not share this glory, in the new Pentagon, there will be a place for you and me."

"Yes!"

Soon.

No matter who the president is, the National Guard, which only obeys the president's orders, instantly set out and rushed to various places in Washington.

Who in the Pentagon participated, they didn't know, but they were most familiar with where those people's safe houses were.

So just run to the safe house and catch people, and it doesn't matter if they catch the wrong ones.

If it's wrong, it's wrong.

It concerns their own lives, others dying is always better than them dying.

The most important point.

If they don't die, then when will their positions be their turn to sit on?

Reed Stacy looked at the group of soldiers leaving, felt their irrepressible ecstasy, and fell into silence again.

His wife Helen Stacy looked at his appearance, walked to his side again, held his right hand, and looked at him with full concern: "Reed!"

Reed came back to his senses, looked at his wife, and showed a smile.

"I'm fine."

"Someone always has to make a decision, it's just that that person is you, you don't have to take it to heart."

"I know."

Reed nodded. If it were anyone else, no matter who it was, when facing an ultimatum issued by a man who destroyed their Pentagon and White House building overnight, they would all make the decision of 'let the friend die, not the poor me'.

He was no exception.

Others dying is always better than himself dying. He has no obligation, nor the necessity, to pay the price for others' actions.

Reed comforted himself in his heart, and then under his wife's gaze, smiled again and changed the subject: "Gwen, has she been picked up?"

His daughter Gwen, ten years old this year, is smart, obedient, and cute.

Helen said with a smile: "The Secret Service went to pick her up, she should be here soon. Unfortunately, we probably won't be able to live in it."

While saying this, Helen looked at the White House building that was still under the embers of the flames and shrugged.

Reed followed his wife's gaze and couldn't help but smile: "But we can live in a brand new White House."

For buildings, the old one is definitely not as good as the new one.

The White House is the same.

Instead of living in an old one, it's better to live in a new one.

Reed thought in his heart, and then moved his gaze away from the White House building burning with embers, and looked towards the direction of the Pentagon, which was also burning with embers of fire.

Not just the Pentagon.

Huaerjie in Manhattan, New York City, was also bathed in a sea of flames at this moment.

A Sentinel robot, which looked roughly the same as the one that appeared in Washington from the outside, was walking unscrupulously on the streets of Huaerjie.

The originally equally brilliant high-rise buildings had also turned into ruins.

As the Sentinel robot's hands swung suddenly, a high-rise building was knocked down with a crash, and as a high-rise building shattered, in its algorithm, the probability of being controlled by this place in the future would drop by several percent.

After the dwarf died, the Sentinel robot, which had its shackles removed, not only regarded mutants as cleanup targets, but also regarded anything that might threaten its existence as its primary target.

All Sentinel robots were destroying the high-rise buildings in front of them while confronting the mutants who were shuttling through the ruins trying to stop them.

When Hawk found Wanda, daughter Jean had already joined the battlefield.

"How is it?"

"Compared to you, the experience is definitely not that rich, but there is good news."

"What?"

"Our daughter is not like you, she doesn't like to show off."

"..."

Hawk heard Wanda's teasing, and looked at his daughter who was fighting steadily in cooperation with Storm and Cyclops: "Not bad, quite good, steady is good, I actually also walk the steady style."

Wanda chuckled, didn't answer, but looked at Hawk.

"Washington settled?"

"Gave them twenty-four hours."

Hawk spoke the truth.

Wanda heard this, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Hawk: "Soft-hearted again? Didn't we agree not to be soft-hearted this time?"

Hawk's gaze was calm.

"Because the person speaking is different."

"Who?"

"Reed."

"... Who is this?"

"Designated survivor."

"A lucky guy?"

Wanda also knew about the designated survivor system: "Just because he is a lucky guy, so you were soft-hearted?"

Hawk shook his head.

"No."

"Then..."

"His surname is Stacy."

"... Oh."

Wanda heard this, was stunned at first, then reacted, laughed, and looked at Hawk: "He really is a lucky guy."

Not just because Reed Stacy is a designated survivor.

But because Reed Stacy's surname is Stacy.

In Eastern language.

This is Hawk's wife's family.

However...

Wanda looked at Hawk with some curiosity: "Does he also have a daughter named Gwen?"

Hawk shrugged: "I don't know about that."

Wanda smiled.

"Didn't ask?"

"No need."

Hawk and Wanda looked at each other: "Because I already have my own Gwen."

Yes.

He already has his own Gwen.

As for other worlds, maybe there are still Gwens, he might also like them, but that is not true liking, but liking similar to 'love me, love my dog'.

Because he likes his own Gwen, so he likes the Gwen of every universe.

This is not promiscuity.

This is 'love me, love my dog'.

Wanda met Hawk's firm gaze and smiled slightly: "I am very satisfied with this answer, Mr. Phoenix."

Hawk also smiled slightly.

"This is the truth."

"I know."

Wanda smiled again, then withdrew her gaze, and looked down at her daughter who was fighting against the Sentinel robot: "So, when does that guy hiding in the dark plan to appear?"

Hawk shrugged.

"He's already here!"

"What?"
