Chapter 197 Conditions and Safeguards
"What do I want?"
Loki stood on a slightly higher staircase, looking down at Pierce standing below him, and he liked the condescending feeling, as if he had become the king standing above everyone's heads.
Around him, the various instruments and equipment that only appear in science fiction movies are dizzying, and if the office environment of S.H.I.E.L.D. is compared to home or seven days, then Hydra is a bit like a Peace Hotel.
"I've given you three days." Loki held the golden scepter in his right hand, and the gem at the top of the scepter emitted a faint and mysterious light, as if it could pull human consciousness into, "But you only gave me a half-finished product?" ”
"Knock"
The scepter slammed down on the floor, a sound that echoed through the lab.
However, Pierce didn't seem to notice Loki's impatience, and said with an old fox-like smile on his face: "Most of the processes have been completed, and now we only need the last step before you can summon your cosmic army." ”
Loki stared straight at Pierce for a while, then suddenly the corners of his mouth curled, "Are you negotiating terms with me?" ”
"Of course." Pierce waved his hand, smiled, and did not hide his intentions, "I can give you what you need, but what guarantee can you give me, I don't want to become the target of the army you summoned." ”
Although there had been some rough agreements between the two sides, neither Loki nor Pierce had taken those agreements seriously, and there was no difference between this kind of non-verbal agreement and drunken words spoken drunk.
"What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?"
Loki took a step forward, the scepter in his hand raised slightly, and the glowing gem swayed at Pierce, who was standing in the distance.
A sudden burst of vertigo rose in Pierce's mind,
staggered a few times,
Pierce bit his tongue and pressed a button in the pocket with the hand in the pocket.
"Click, click, click..."
The sound of mechanical gears turning suddenly appeared, and the walls on both sides seemed to be made of a single piece of metal suddenly cracked open one after another, and in the gaps, one black muzzle after another quickly poked out and pointed at Loki, who was holding the scepter.
The dense muzzle of the gun made Loki's pupils shrink,
The scepter in his hand was slightly retracted,
The crumbling Pierce suddenly felt the vertigo in his mind disappear, and he raised his head and glanced at the weapons that had almost covered the entire laboratory with an attack range,
To continue:
"I can give you something, right now, my subordinates are already on their way to New York to get the last documents, but before that, I need a guarantee."
"Buzz."
The next moment,
Pierce suddenly felt a flower in front of his eyes,
Loki, who had been standing on the steps before, appeared in front of him very abruptly, the two of them were only less than a meter apart, and he could even see the glow reflected on the scepter.
Loki's eyes were a little cold, like the eyes of a poisonous snake, staring at his prey.
"I can give you a guarantee, but by tomorrow at the latest, I need to see the instrument appear on top of the tallest building in New York."
......
......
New York
On a street in Manhattan,
Ryan and Banner walked down the street, Ryan talking on the phone as he walked.
"What? You're not in the company? Ryan frowned, stopped and said, "Do you know that it's work time, how did an employee like you get mixed up in the company until now?" ”
...
"Huh? Chivalrous and righteous? Does your company pay you to do chivalrous work during working hours? ”
...
"You can't save people!"
...
"How many superheroes are there in all of New York? Saving people is not a reason for you to skip work. ”
...
On the other side,
Eddie, who turned off the phone, tiptoed behind four men in black suits, who he had seen with his own eyes just kill a doctor who had just walked out of the building across the street with a pistol.
They were skillful in their movements, and after killing someone with a pistol equipped with a silencer, they immediately dragged the body into a small box next to it, and one of them fumbled around the dead doctor for a while before finding a card from the doctor's clothes.
"What are they doing?"
Eddie whispered behind the wall.
"In... Violate... Crime. ”
A hoarse voice sounded in Eddie's heart, with a hint of disdain in his tone.
"They seem to be trying to steal?"
As someone who has had experience in sneaking in, Eddie immediately saw the other party's intentions.
"Just... Just... Electricity... Speech... Be... Who. ”
"Ryan."
Seeing the four men casually walk into the building opposite, Eddie immediately put away the press card hanging around his neck and followed.
"He... Want... Come? ”
At the mention of Ryan, Venom seems to be a little interested,
It had just swallowed three strong men last night, and was still in a state of food and clothing, and it had no interest in the four men in front of it at all.
"He's going to bring someone over and talk to us."
"Heh..."
Venom sneered and stopped talking.
As soon as Eddie walked into the building, a middle-aged black man dressed as a security guard came over and stopped Eddie.
"What is the matter, sir?"
"Well, I'm here to talk to your person in charge about a business."
Eddie glanced at the words "Technology Co., Ltd." behind the front desk and said nonsense.
"Business?" The black bodyguard was stunned for a moment, and asked politely, "Is there an appointment?" ”
As he spoke, he ushered Eddie to the front desk, and after talking to the front desk lady, he returned to the gate.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
"Uh... Find Pete. ”
Eddie casually said a name,
Pete, Tony, Jack, the status of these three names is like Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Er Mazi, almost you shout a word on the street, and there are several people who turn back together.
"Okay."
The front desk lady lowered her head, and just as Eddie stared apprehensively at the four men in suits who had disappeared into the elevator, the voice of the front desk lady rang in her ears again.
"He's on the fourth floor."
"Huh?"
Eddie took his gaze back, smiled at the front desk lady, and walked briskly to the elevator.
After a few minutes of delay, just four people have gone up to the 17th floor,
There was another elevator on the right to the first floor, but Eddie didn't go in, but blocked the elevator door with one hand, and waited until the previous elevator finally stopped on the 28th floor before he walked in and pressed the button that said 28.
"Are you hungry?"
Eddie muttered to himself.
"I'm not hungry, but I can still eat!"
