A certain American comic book's secondary profession master
Chapter 272 Using War to Stop War
Chapter 272 Using War to Stop War
"Don't you think I'm useless, trying to liberate the Kree Empire by myself, only to cause the deaths of countless civilizations?" Carol said self-deprecatingly.
Li Wei shook his head upon hearing this.
“As expected… you also think I’ve made a terrible mistake…” Carol said with a sorrowful expression.
“No, no, no, you did make a mistake, but your mistake wasn’t in killing the Supreme Intelligence, nor was it that you were useless,” Li Wei replied.
"Huh?" Carol looked puzzled.
“I bet your history grades weren’t very good,” Li Wei said, raising an eyebrow.
"Nonsense! Although I still don't fully recall many of my memories from back then, as an ace pilot, I got straight A's in all my academic subjects!" Carroll said, quite unconvinced.
“Oh… I forgot you studied American history, then it’s alright!” Levi realized that Carol was studying American history.
Although they are different universes, apart from the parts about Captain America and Hydra, the general course of history is basically the same as the world where Li Wei lived in his previous life.
So the real history of the United States is only a small part; what is actually more of it is world history.
But they were all just mentioned in passing.
Learning it is basically the same as not learning it at all.
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Carol asked, puzzled.
"What do you think is the best way to end the war?" Li Wei asked in return.
“Of course, we must defeat the invaders!” Carol replied without hesitation.
"Just defeat?" Li Wei asked in return, a slight smirk playing on his lips.
"if not?"
"Then what do you think constitutes a defeat?" Li Wei sighed helplessly.
“Destroy their ability to invade, we can’t just kill them all, can we?” Carol said, frowning. If she killed all the Kree, what difference would there be between her and the Kree?
Levi looked at Carol as if she were an idiot.
"Why are you looking at me like that?!" Carroll was annoyed by Levi's gaze.
"If I'm not mistaken, what you mean by destroying their ability to invade is probably destroying their main fleet, right?" Li Wei asked.
“That’s right!” Carol nodded.
Hehe, Li Wei finally understood why this silly girl, despite possessing such formidable power, had been unable to resolve the wars in the Kree Empire after decades of hard work.
Li Wei estimated that if the internal strife within the Kree Empire in the original timeline could have ended, it would probably have been thanks to Thanos' snap.
"Have you ever considered that, given the Kree's technological level, it wouldn't be long before they could rebuild a completely new fleet?" Levi asked.
“I know, but I’m not afraid. If I can destroy them once, I can destroy them twice, three times…” Carol said confidently.
Upon hearing the other party's reply, Li Wei gasped in shock.
Damn it, this kind of stubborn woman is hopeless.
"Haven't you ever thought of ending the war by unifying the entire Kree Empire, like the Supreme Intelligence did?" Li Wei asked with some difficulty.
"Me? Unify the Kree Empire? What's the difference between me and the Supreme Intelligence then? No way!" Carol decisively refused. "Besides, I'm not a Kree. How could the Kree possibly submit to me!"
“Come with me, I’ll give you a proper history lesson!” Li Wei said, barely suppressing his urge to explode. Without waiting for Carol’s approval, he went into the conference room. A completely bewildered Carol could only follow.
"So you think the best way to resolve war is war itself? But wouldn't that cause too many casualties?" A few hours later, Carroll, who had studied Eastern history at Li Wei's suggestion, asked.
Although there is a great deal of historical content in the East.
But Carol is a superhuman after all, and a few hours is enough for her to remember most of the information.
"This may not be the best way, but it is definitely the fastest way. And even if you don't do it this way, will the casualties be less? Moreover, wars with a small disparity in strength are the ones with the greatest casualties. For you, with your overwhelming power, you can actually minimize casualties—to the Kree Empire, you are that 'little boy'." Levi used the superweapons that ended World War II as a metaphor.
“But I’m not a Kree…” Carol was still hesitant.
“Who said you aren’t?” Li Wei retorted.
"Huh?" Carol was puzzled; she really wasn't.
“Don’t forget, your Kree identity was bestowed upon you by the Supreme Wisdom of the previous ruler. If you say so, then you are!” Levi said, patting Carol on the shoulder.
He didn't know whether encouraging Carol to unify the Kree Empire was a good thing or a bad thing.
However, he felt that the Kree war would not last forever, and sooner or later someone would stand up and reunify the Kree Empire.
At that time, the reunified Kree Empire would definitely be a huge stumbling block to the development of Earth's civilization.
Instead of that, it would be better to let Captain Marvel, an Earth-born "Kree," be the ruler.
While this doesn't guarantee that Earth and the Kree will never become enemies, at least as long as Captain Marvel is alive, Earth will have little to worry about from the Kree.
In many instances, the Kree Empire can even protect Earth.
As a superhuman, Captain Marvel's lifespan has long since broken free from the constraints of the current human lifespan.
Even if they don't live for thousands or tens of thousands of years, they should have no problem living for several hundred years without any unexpected events.
And a few hundred years... who knows how far Earth's civilization could develop.
Carol was silent.
As Livy said, what the Supreme Intelligence did to her back then did, to some extent, make her an absolutely pure "Kree".
Carroll was still somewhat hesitant about whether or not to do it.
Although deep down she had already accepted Livy's theory of "stopping war with war".
But as a former American, the idea of "freedom" still influences her.
"In fact, the reason I asked you to do this is not only to end the war as quickly as possible, but also because I hope that after you achieve your goal, you can help the Earth!" Li Wei saw her hesitation and immediately threw her the last straw.
He mentioned the idea of having the Kree Empire protect and safeguard Earth's civilization.
For someone like Captain Marvel, sincerity is always the ultimate weapon.
"Think about it carefully. Of course, these are just my personal suggestions, and you don't have to force yourself!" After saying that, Li Wei left the meeting room, leaving Captain Marvel to think about it on her own.
