Chapter 580: Doubts
At an altitude of 20,000 feet, a butterfly-shaped aircraft is flying forward rapidly, this specially modified aircraft by Stark, the flight speed is extremely fast, and extremely stable, and even the internal space is much larger than other similar aircraft.
Banner sat alone in the corner, listening to music and reading books, completely different from the Hulk who had been in Sokvia before.
Ling Xiao sat across from Banner, touching his chin and frowning, as if thinking about something.
In the middle of Ling Xiao and Banner is Hawkeye lying on the hospital bed, Hawkeye has completely fallen into a coma at this time, although the injuries on his body are not life-threatening, but it is not so easy to fully recover.
Natasha helped Hawkeye cover the blanket before she came to Ling Xiao's side and asked in a low voice, "Ling, Clint won't have any big problems, right?" ”
"It's fine." Ling Xiao raised his head, barely squeezed out a smile on his face, and said, "Tony has asked Dr. Helen Zhao to come from Seoul, and he will help Barton recover in Dr. Banner's laboratory." Rest assured, Barton's injury has stabilized, and the rest is a matter of physical recovery, and in this regard, Dr. Helen Zhao's treatment methods are more targeted. ”
The energy cannon that Barton was hit by caused all the muscles in his body to die, and even Ling Xiao's Spring Breeze and Rain Transformation Technique couldn't make that part of the vitality reappear, so he could only rely on scientific means to recreate that part of the muscles!
"That's good." Natasha couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, she had an excellent relationship with Barton, and she really didn't want to see him get hurt, and when she heard that Ling Xiao and Stark had already arranged the next treatment, her somewhat hanging heart also relaxed.
At this time, Natasha opened her mouth and asked, "Ling, I see that your brows have been frowning since you got on the plane, are you worried about something?" ”
"Hmm!" Ling Xiao nodded with a calm face, glanced at everyone, and then continued, "Don't you think it's strange? Straker has those two superhumans, and is perfectly capable of escaping with the Psychic Scepter before we can capture him. But don't you think it's strange that he, who has the ability to release the spore virus, chose to surrender when we just faced him head-on? ”
"That's right!" Rogers, who was standing behind and was talking to Thor in a low voice, couldn't help but nod when he heard Ling Xiao say this, and said: "Those two super humans, one has a speed that cannot be seen by the human eye, and the other can attack the human spirit, if the two join forces, it is not difficult to take away Straker and the Psychic Scepter, and what is even more suspicious is that the two of them didn't even try to try." ”
"So you think there's a conspiracy here?" Natasha looked at Ling Xiao and Rogers, and then at Banner and Stark, who also looked solemn, shook her head slightly, and said: "I think you guys are thinking too much, first of all, even if those two super humans have super speed, but every time they bring one more person, their speed will inevitably decrease, within a short distance, maybe they are the fastest, but in a long distance pursuit, who can outrun Thor?" ”
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look at Thor, Thor just smiled honestly, at this time, everyone had to admit that Natasha was right, Quicksilver's speed was indeed beyond ordinary people, but compared to Thor, who could fly in the sky, could he really escape with a burden?
Seeing that everyone understood a little, Natasha continued: "Second, you may not know that at the end of World War II, you don't know that there were Hydra agents who had sworn loyalty to surrender in a flock, their bones were not as hard as you think, and the part of people who were really loyal to Hydra either chose to commit suicide or were thrown into prison by the Allies, and now it is certain that Straker is not one of these people. ”
Since the dissolution of S.H.I.E.L.D., for such a long time, the Avengers and the governments have wiped out most of the Hydra forces, and have obtained a lot of information about the Hydra leadership.
After Germany surrendered, Straker chose to flee to Japan, using the power of the Japanese to develop his power, and this part of the force was only loyal to himself, and for such a long time, Straker did not want to restore the Hydra organization.
It wasn't until later that Dr. Zola and Alexander Pierce set up the Hydra Division within S.H.I.E.L.D., and finally interconnected with other Hydra Divisions, which led to the current Hydra situation, but even so, without a leader like Red Skull, Hydra is just a plate of loose sand.
It can be said that Straker is insidious and cunning, but it is not incomprehensible that he will choose to surrender when he wants to fight the Avengers like everyone else, and when there is no hope of escape.
"Third, Straker's choice to surrender was indeed forced by the situation, because he knew that we couldn't kill him, he contained the death spore virus, and once he was killed, the death spore virus would be distributed, and I am afraid it would pose a threat to many people." Natasha tapped lightly on the table and continued: "But Straker must have his own plans, and it is not clear that there are still Hydra people hiding in the United Nations or the United States government. ”
"You're saying that after we submit Straker to the United Nations and the U.S. government, the Hydra guys will most likely get him out again?" Although Ling Xiao's brows were still furrowed, his expression was indeed much more relaxed than before.
Before, he had never been able to figure out why the powerful Straker had not yet made a move with him, so he chose to surrender directly.
Ling Xiao had originally prepared many ways to deal with Straker's ability to release the Death Spore Virus, but his sudden surrender made all of Ling Xiao's previous preparations in vain, and it was precisely because of this that Ling Xiao never understood why Baron Straker took the initiative to choose to surrender.
"Don't think about it so much." Stark, who was piloting the plane in front, handed over the flight control to Jarvis before continuing: "Anyway, the Psychic Scepter has been recaptured by us, and in a few days, Thor will take it back to Asgard, as for Straker, we will send more people to keep an eye on it, maybe you can find some other Hydra spies hiding in the shadows." ”
"That's all there is to it." Ling Xiao turned his head to look at the Mind Scepter that had been set aside, and the blue Mind Gem emitted a faint halo.
The current Ling Xiao has not yet connected Ultron with Straker, and in his cognition, Ultron was influenced by Stark's fear created by the Scarlet Witch with chaos magic, and because of the idea of creating Ultron.
He didn't think that Straker had the ability to predict and influence a person's behavior over a period of time, not to mention, if it weren't for Ultron's accidental birth, the Psychic Scepter would have been brought back to Earth by Thor a long time ago, and in the whole thing, Straker paid a bit of a big price.
The base he had carefully built in Sokovia was ruined; The scepter of the mind was taken away; Even he himself was arrested, and it is conceivable that even without the reminder of the Avengers, the United Nations or the United States government would impose the strictest imprisonment on Baron Straker.
It can be said that except for Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, Straker has lost almost everything, and it is precisely because of the great effort that people cannot figure out his true purpose, and more importantly, Ling Xiao did not learn anything about Straker's secret plans from Liszt.
"Alright, don't think about it!" Rogers walked over and patted Ling Xiao on the shoulder and said, "We need to find out where the scepter is still being used as soon as possible?" ”
"yes, when will Sklark be able to create a superhuman?" Stark walked over to the Psychic Scepter, stood shoulder to shoulder with Thor, and said, "When I go back, I'll study it with Ling and Dr. Banner, Thor, and when the celebration is over in a few days, you can take it away!" ”
"That's right, victory should be accompanied by revelry!" Thor smiled unconcernedly, it was only ten days, in Asgard, any post-war celebration was longer than that, and ten days, what could they study, the Soul Scepter had been on Earth for a long time.
