Chapter 654: Divide for a long time
Richard's voice was calm, and he didn't use any offensive or threatening language, but it seemed to shock all the leaders present, and no one dared to speak out against it.
Or more accurately, stunned by his movements.
Even Gideon Malik was taken aback, even he didn't know that his ancestors could do this. No one understands how Richard did it, and everyone just saw the weapon fly, disintegrate and disappear in mid-air, just like a science fiction movie.
In the blink of an eye, everyone is defenseless again.
"Very well, I'm sure we have a good basis for conversation now." "It's a good start. As I said, everyone is a civilized person, and how bad it is to use knives and guns, we should be rational and try to solve the problem in a peaceful way. β
The Hydra leaders looked at each other for a moment, then Baron Zemo stood up and said, "Well, since you say so, then let's talk."
I don't think the proposal just now is a good idea. The checks and balances between the various forces of Hydra have been maintained for many years, and each of us manages our own territory, is responsible for our own territory, and everyone does our job to make Hydra prosperous today. I don't think that balance should be upset.
There are many disadvantages of unified management, and it is difficult for a leader to do everything. I mean, after so many years of development, each of our divisions and departments has its own set of management and operation models, and if we make changes, it may be difficult for the organization to adapt to the new model, which will lead to our operational efficiency and loss of resources......"
Hearing the old man's words, everyone couldn't help but sneer.
Everyone knows that Baron Zemo has always had the idea of being the king in his heart before he came to the meeting. He didn't think about the disadvantages of efficiency reduction, resource loss and so on for a second.
And now it is clear that he has seen the strength of this "god of hydra" and realized that nothing can be done - if the hydra must be united, then it must not be him who sits on the throne.
That's why he had to settle for the next best thing, hoping to maintain the status quo, and the bosses still manage their own turf, and it would be better if he could get some benefits from Straker's remaining turf.
However, unexpectedly, the viper on the side suddenly said: "I don't agree." β
Baron Zemo glared at her viciously.
Viper only pretended not to see it, and continued: "I think there is some truth to the unified proposal. Times are changing, in fact faster than ever before. More and more superpowers are emerging, and the new S.H.I.E.L.D., led by Iron Man, is becoming more and more connected with the Avengers......"
"Get straight to the point." Baron Zemo said gloomily.
"The point is, Hydra needs to change as well." Viper said, "Otherwise, we won't be able to keep up with the times." Maybe it's time for all of us to come together, and maybe we should be back together β just like we did in the days when the Red Skulls ruled. Only by combining our strengths can we become stronger and ready to meet the challenges of the new era. β
Baron Zemo narrowed his eyes: "So you don't think you can be the one to do this, do you?" β
"Of course not, I'm just a girl, remember? What you said. Viper smiled, then turned his gaze to Richard, "But luckily, we've got the right person, aren't we?" β
Baron Zemo reacted suddenly.
Viper never thought about being the king from the beginning, she knew that she was not the material.
But seeing the wind and making the rudder is her housekeeping skill. Now that the situation seemed to be falling in favor of the hydra god, she quickly stood in line and expressed her friendship without even thinking about it.
"It's great that so many people can agree. Look, I'll just say that we can make sense by reasoning. Richard said, "Originally, it is the law that everything in the world is destined to be divided for a long time, and so is the operation of our Hydra."
As I said earlier, we need a peaceful solution. But a wise man also said, 'We can not shoot, but we must not have a gun in our hands.'" So in order to ensure that this conversation goes peacefully, I think some force may also be necessary......"
Richard said, snapping his fingers again.
Once again, an invisible energy spread through the closed conference room. Although the leaders of the hydra could not see it, they could all feel a terrifying coercion that seemed to surpass the human being released. In an instant, everyone felt as if their hearts were being grabbed, and they couldn't even breathe.
The hemispherical ceiling radiates a faint blue glow from a point in the center. Centered on the midpoint, the dome began to disintegrate and dissipate little by little, being broken up into countless flying particles.
However, beyond the ceiling, there was no blue sky, no white clouds, no golden sunlight, only endless huge black shadows.
The Hydra leaders froze one by one and subconsciously stood up from their chairs.
It was a battleship.
A huge cosmic main battleship with a total length of more than 10,000 meters, covering the entire sky.
In fact, Richard could have made a super battleship more than a thousand miles long, but there was no need. Anyway, such a big block is placed in the sky, and from the perspective directly below, it looks like 10,000 meters and 1,000 miles are about the sameβand they can't see the edge.
Moreover, that kind of super battleship is only designed for space warfare, and the energy released by the big guy who is more than 1,000 miles tall, the magnetic field created, etc., will have an unknown impact on the planet, so there is no need to get it into the atmosphere just to pretend to be a force.
Judging from the current situation, it is clear that these leaders have been shocked by this large battleship, and the effect is not bad.
Baron Zemo's expression changed several times, gritted his teeth and said, "Maybe...... Maybe we can put this matter aside for a while. The priority now is Baron Straker, we don't yet know where the others are. He didn't reply to any of our messages. We're going to take away his men and territory, and he's not going to stand back without resistance......"
Richard smiled, "Don't worry about that, Baron, I've thought about this for a long time. β
He said, gesturing.
The space cracked, the dark vortex opened, and a figure was thrown out of the dark hole like garbage.
It's Baron Straker.
Or to be precise, the baron's corpse.
The spatial vortex closes. Richard turned his head to look at Zemo on the side: "Now, is there anyone else who has any questions?" β
No one said anything more. Even Baron Zemo lowered his head and did not speak.
"I think so." Richard nodded in satisfaction, "Then let's start discussing some details." β
