Chapter 16 Response Plan

"You can't just stun my agent, pretend to be him on a top-secret mission, and then swagger in my office and tell me it's for both of us!"

Nick Fury looked at the guy in front of him, who was tightly hidden by his armor, and his tone was unusually almost angry.

Michael stood in front of him and replied indifferently, "But that's for both of us, Director Fury." First of all, I didn't 'stun' Agent Coulson, it was too barbaric. I just hypnotized him with a simple spell and let him rest comfortably. And I bet it was the most restful sleep he'd had in weeks. ”

After a pause, he emphasized: "Also, the undeniable fact is that it works. I've pulled out an eighth-level spy planted inside Aegis, and I'm sure you can imagine how much of an impact a high-level spy like this could have on the eve of an all-out war between Aegis and Hydra. ”

Garrett's dying recording has been handed over to Fury, and according to its contents, the other party has basically admitted his identity as a Hydra spy. In addition, several experts of Aegis have verified the authenticity of the video, and they all unanimously ensure that the recording has not been tampered with in any form.

Fury certainly knew how much of a threat a spy of John Garrett's level could pose, and he just didn't like it when this mysterious collaborator was meddling without his knowledge. However, he also had to admit that this mysterious person had really helped them a lot so far, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s current trump card against the Hydra problem.

But as the head of the agent of a super intelligence agency like Aegis, a spy of spies, Nick Fury is often more accustomed to being in control than the other way around. He hated the feeling of knowing nothing about someone, as it is now.

Fury sat in the armchair, and after a long silence, asked, "How many more?" ”

"What?"

"A high-level spy like Garrett, with more than level eight clearances." Fury looked up, and there was an uncomfortable light in his lone eye, "How many more." ”

It's too much to believe. Not to mention level eight, there is even a top two-five boy of level ten who runs into the director's office twice in three days to talk and laugh with you.

Michael only shook his head: "There are indeed quite a few, but the time is not yet yet, and even if I tell you the name, you will not believe it." In addition, the more high-level big fish are, the more cautious they are, and the more difficult it is to catch the handle, and it will be difficult to provide evidence for a while. ”

"You're telling me to let it go?"

"I'm telling you to wait for your time." Michael raised his hand, and a cloud of magical mist rose and gradually disappeared into his form, "But don't worry, Director Fury. In the end, none of them could escape. ”

The green mist dissipated, and the steel body disappeared without a trace.

Fury sat behind the table and stared at where he had disappeared for a long time.

"I hate magic."

Somewhere in an unknown location.

At the dimly lit conference table, a figure of pale blue holograms sat around the table, with only a chair on the right hand side left a vacancy.

The meeting was attended by Hydra's highest-ranking leaders, and these powerful cadres may not necessarily gather a table for a meeting in years, even if it is a remote meeting with the help of projection technology. However, for the second time in the last week, they had gathered at such a table.

Because they lost one person.

"John Garrett is dead." At the end of the table, the monocle-clad man said gloomily, "It's a great loss for us." But we don't have time to waste on remembrance, and it's a wake-up call that reminds us of our vigilance. ”

The Sven man with round glasses said indifferently, "I warned Garrett a long time ago, but he was too conceited to listen to me. And now, he's paying the price. ”

"So how did Garrett die? Who caught him? ”

"I've heard that he was revealed during an operation led by a Level 7 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D." Someone replied, "Philip J. Coulson. ”

"That's not the truth." Alexander Pierce, the blonde head of the Aegis, leaned forward, "That operation was interfered with by someone other than Aegis. If my message is correct, the 'Black Knight' should have caught him. ”

"Is him again?" The man in glasses frowned, "Dr. Norton? ”

"There's not even evidence that he's really Angus Norton himself." Pierce emphasized.

"It's been a long time since this happened." The bald man in the monocle said coldly, "We are under attack, and so far we know almost zero about the attacker...... The situation must change. ”

The man with glasses turned his gaze to Pierce: "That 'weapon' over there, isn't he useful?" ”

Pierce glanced back at him.

"Sharp knives are only useful when they know what to eradicate." He replied lightly, and then turned his gaze to the monocle man at the end, "I heard that Baron Straker has so many superpowers with quite high ratings, and one of them has multiple abilities including rare sensing abilities?" Maybe she can help. ”

"It's just a certain level of sensing." The monocle man, as Pierce called Baron Straker, replied indifferently, "And she's not stable yet, she's not ready to be put into use." ”

"With all due respect, Baron. But we are now facing the most critical juncture in decades. "Maybe it's not a good time to take your time." ”

Baron Straker held his thin chin with his hands, and his gaze behind the monocle seemed to be a little colder.

"Okay." After pondering for a long time, he replied, "I'll go back and check and see if anything comes of it." I'll contact you if I find anything. ”

Alexander Pierce's hologram leaned back into his chair: "Waiting for your good news." ”

The pale blue holograms disappeared one after another, and the fluorescence on the round table gradually faded, and the conference room fell into dead darkness.

At the end of the remote meeting, Baron Wolfgang von Straker stood up from his desk and walked out of his office quickly. He went to the elevator at the end of the hallway, and took the elevator all the way down to the ground floor, deep underground, to a huge laboratory.

The lab was crowded with people, mostly researchers in white coats. The old man, who looked like the person in charge, hurriedly put down his work when he noticed Baron Straker's entry, walked up quickly, and saluted respectfully, "Sir." ”

Baron Straker walked slowly inside with his hands behind his back. The old man hurriedly introduced to him: "Sir, the effect of that scepter is indeed remarkable. We're only scratching the surface, but we're already making very exciting progress. There seems to be something hidden in it that acts as a catalyst for the twins' superpowers, and they are greatly enhanced......"

"The twins," Straker paused, turned his head, and looked at the old man with a chilling look, "how are they doing?" ”

"It's been amazing progress, but I'm still getting familiar with my new abilities." The old man lowered his head, "They haven't fully adapted yet, and it's still a little difficult to master." It will take time ......"

"Bring me the girl." Baron Straker ordered without question, "I need her." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment: "Huh? But she hasn't ...... yet."

"I said," Straker glared at him coldly, repeating word for word, "bring the girl, bring it to me." ”

A piercing chill seemed to shoot out of his gaze, and looking at him was like a steel knife on his neck. The old man couldn't help but feel excited, and hurriedly bowed his body: "Yes, sir." ”
