Chapter 333: Interstellar War Begins
Grant Ward's situation was very concerned to Nick Fury, and Ward had been in contact with them before S.H.I.E.L.D. met the Shakti. Was it after he left S.H.I.E.L.D., or did he already communicate with Shakti?
And is this exchange forced or voluntary?
If it is the former, Nick Fury has a possible inside line, and if it is the latter, much of the information of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be in the hands of Shakti.
While Nick Fury is lost in thought, he receives a communication from Tony Stark.
"Fury, I've tested those robots you sent, and other technologies are not worth mentioning, but that power supply is indeed a new type of energy battery that I made with Rorschach. However, I have also checked the number of this batch of batteries, which should have been purchased second-hand from Europe. ”
Tony looks pretty good, and it doesn't seem like the recent tensions have affected him much.
After giving up arms production, Stark's new energy technology should be affected by the war. However, due to the close association with Norman Osborne, Osborne Enterprises' stock rose sharply, causing Stark Industries' stock to rise slightly instead of falling.
This was also an unexpected result for Tony before.
Nick Fury listened to Tony's words and asked, "Can you imitate these technologies?" ”
"Imitation? Not at all, this technique is too backward. The only advantage is that it is cheaper and mass-produced. Tony said rather dismissively.
"I just want to mass-produce. Tony, this is the time when the world has changed, and it is no longer the time when terrorists were the highest threat. S.H.I.E.L.D. needs a mechanized force that can go directly to the battlefield as a substitute for our agents. Nick Fury said to Tony very seriously.
"I'm not interested in mass-producing this robot, and I've already decided that I'm not going to produce any more weapons for other people to use. I can guarantee that I won't mess around myself, but I can't control the people who buy weapons from messing around. Tony didn't hesitate to refuse.
Seeing what else Nick Fury wanted to say, Tony spoke again: "If you really want a similar mechanical unit, you go to Rorschach." He has the technology to mass-produce this war robot, and it's fifty years ahead of all this junk you're sending me. ”
With that, Tony didn't hesitate to turn off the com.
Nick Fury couldn't help but sigh when he heard Tony's words, he didn't know that Rorschach's technology was more advanced than that rag.
He also found some of the robots sold by Tindersource to Europe, and after dismantling them, he understood that there was a very obvious technical gap. Not only is it not as good as those chain-belt robots in Egypt, but even the technology of S.H.I.E.L.D. is not comparable.
But if he had a choice, Nick Fury was really reluctant to buy a robot from Rorschach, which was a matter of trust. Nick Fury has until now fully believed in Rorschach, the man who suddenly appeared from Afghanistan, but there seems to be no other choice at the moment.
The reappearance of Hydra and the control of S.H.I.E.L.D. system all made Nick Fury understand that the world had entered turmoil. Hydra definitely has more than one Whitehall, and even Nick Fury has begun to suspect that there are a large number of Hydra spies in S.H.I.E.L.D.
It's just that in the recent period, Nick Fury has not been able to take the time to deal with this serious problem.
didn't hesitate for long, Nick Fury still took the initiative to dial the video call. Since S.H.I.E.L.D. has business dealings with Tindersource, Nick Fury can contact Rorschach directly. But this time, after connecting the video communication, Nick Fury saw a dusty Rorschach.
Rorschach ...... What are you busy with? Nick Fury asked curiously.
In the video, Rorschach not only has a face full of ash, but also has several torn clothes on his body. The environment of the video seems to be a bit dim, and the signal is quite bad, Rorschach opens his mouth to say a few words, and Nick Fury only hears a murmur.
After a while, Rorschach's voice came from the other side of the video.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I don't have a good signal here." Rorschach's voice came intermittently, barely audible.
"Are you in Huaxia?" Nick Fury asked Rorschach.
The background of the video shows that it was pitch black in the area where Rorschach was, and it was supposed to be night. And now it's daytime in the United States, that's why Nick Fury has this question.
"This question is not important, Director Fury is looking for me at this time, is there something wrong?" Rorschach changed the subject.
Nick Fury didn't dig deeper, Rorschach himself is Chinese, and he has a very close relationship with that side, so it's not a strange thing to go back and do something.
"I have a new business I want to talk to you about, I heard that you have sold a lot of intelligent robots to Europe, if S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to ...... Wait, Rorschach, what's that behind you? ”
Just now, a blue figure flashed, and it was vaguely visible that it was a tall guy, but as soon as the camera shook, the picture was completely black in an instant.
There was a low vibrating sound, as if mixed with a very slight scream, which would almost be inaudible if Nick Fury hadn't turned it up to the maximum.
After a while, Rorschach appeared on the camera again, but the smile on his face was a little more embarrassing.
"Haha, it was a little trouble just now. What did you just say? Want to buy a robot? Rorschach said, his shoulders still shaking.
Nick Fury swears from his lifelong experience as a secret agent that Rorschach is absolutely stomping on something very hard, and he is simply merciless.
Combined with the screams just now, the matter on Rorschach's side is obviously not as simple as a "small trouble". However, Nick Fury didn't mean to be nosy, so he said to Rorschach, "Rorschach, if you're busy, we can talk later." ”
"No, I'm not busy right now. You said you wanted to buy a robot? How much to buy? What model? Rorschach asked.
"I want to discuss the details with you face-to-face, but at least there will be no less than a thousand." Nick Fury said.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. is really rich, you should know how much I sold to Europe, right?" Rorschach asked rhetorically.
"Eighty million, low-profile version. I still know the price, but I don't want to buy the low-end version, I want to buy the more advanced version, preferably with all the weapons and tactical systems. Nick Fury said.
The robots on the European side have been tested by Nick Fury himself, and they are capable of performing the tactical maneuvers of elite soldiers. Although there are a few glitches in constant combat and remote control, it is definitely worth the money.
It's just that the Tinder Source sells to Europe are naked robots without any weapons. Nick Fury believes that the weapons produced by Tinder are better than the ones commonly found on the market, so he wants to get a high-end version of the full set of equipment.
"Well, I may not be available for the next few days for an interview, but I'll have someone contact you, and he can take full charge of the business of the Tinder Source Company. Oh, back to that, Director Fury, I'm suddenly a little busy again right now. ”
Rorschach hastily turned off the communications, but before the screen could be turned off, Nick Fury seemed to see a strange light streak through.
"Send this video to the technical department and give me a frame by frame review. Focus on finding out where Rorschach is. Nick Fury commanded.
Vaguely, Nick Fury felt that things were not simple. But Nick Fury only noticed that the terrain of the place where Rorschach was located was a little strange, but he would never have thought that Rorschach was not on Earth at all.
Outside the solar system, on that unknown planet, Rorschach turned off the communication and stepped down.
The force gushed, the dust flew, and the ground sank directly into a deep pit.
Legolas, as a captive, lay in the pit, with a loveless expression.
Just now, he quietly took out an energy pistol and wanted to sneak attack when Rorschach connected the video, but was instantly trampled under Rorschach's feet.
The power of this earthling in front of him is far above his own, which is too terrifying.
How did he know that it was actually the few shots he secretly fired that charged Rorschach, and then burst out in an instant and fed back to him.
This foot was trampled like a bad little girl.
Rorschach looked at the half-dead Legolas, and if he hadn't been left to dig up information, he would have trampled him to death a long time ago.
Originally, when Rorschach disappeared, all external communications were handled by Belcher disguised as Rorschach. It was only after Rorschach's return that Belcher naturally returned the communicator to Rorschach.
Rorschach was careless just now, and easily connected to Nick Fury's video call, forgetting that the signal of this universe is not very good, and even using mirror space as a relay has a serious impact. If it weren't for the fact that there was an atmosphere on this planet, Rorschach would still have to think about how to get the sound out.
Grabbing Legolas from the pit, Rorschach said to him viciously, "It is the tradition of our army to treat prisoners preferentially, and if you are obedient, I can give you a way to live, but if you want to die, then don't blame me." ”
"You never know how terrible Ronan is, and the only thing that goes against him is death!" Legolas still said stiffly.
Rorschach didn't need him to speak, as long as he was alive and could think, that was enough.
"Then you can read on and see how I can take out Ronan, the accuser of Kree. But before that, you can see me destroy this outpost. Rorschach said to Legolas.
"Arrogant earthling, you think you can do it alone? Your abilities are indeed powerful, but one person can never compare to a legion. ”
"One legion, three thousand standing troops, a mix of Kree and Saka mercenaries. Combined with the reinforcements that Ronan had just sent here, there were only four thousand people at most. There will also be no more than a thousand Necronomicon fighters. That's the full power of a legion you're talking about. Rorschach said with a smile.
"You...... How do you know?! Legolas said in shock.
"I know more than you do, so give me a good look." With a wave of his hand, the sand on the ground instantly condensed into a set of shackles, firmly binding Legolas.
Except for a pair of legs, he can't even move his neck.
Rorschach opened the door of space again, and Sarah walked out of it, and said to Rorschach respectfully: "Master, the trouble of the Inhumans has come to an end, and it is estimated that the Black Bolt King will not dare to appear in front of us again." ”
"Good job, Nick Fury just contacted me, and the previous plan should have worked. S.H.I.E.L.D. needs the robots of the Tinder Source Company to fight against Shakti and the endless troubles that arise in this world. You discuss with Belcher to order a part of the mechanical unit for S.H.I.E.L.D. Rorschach commanded.
"No problem with this, my master. A robot specially prepared for S.H.I.E.L.D., I have already designed it. But what about the outposts on this planet? Sarah asked.
"Of course it's down, just right, let me see what you're really capable of. The power of the source of fire should be verified through war. Sarah, I can give you information on this outpost, do you have the confidence to take this place down? Rorschach asked.
Sarah is the Mother Empress, the key to the flow of rioters, and a tinder-sourced robot born specifically for war. In the past, on Earth, in fact, it has always been overkill.
Now that she has an opponent, Rorschach is looking forward to Sarah showing her true strength.
"Master, your command is our will, and I will let you see my true ability." Sarah said confidently.
"Very good, what resources are needed, just ask."
"You don't need anything, as long as you watch, master."
Sarah unfolded a Chaos Core portal, and the orange-red cocoon of light expanded to the size of a tunnel mouth. Then, a silver base car that looked like a moving castle rushed out of it.
The body, which was as huge as three container trucks stacked on top of each other, fell on the land of this planet, splashing dust in the sky.
Then, the base car unfolded right in front of Rorschach's eyes, and dozens of metal brackets were inserted directly into the rocky ground, keeping the entire base car firmly on the ground.
Countless metal structures stretch out, covering thousands of square meters in an instant, and they are still spreading. After a while, all the base cars were deployed, and it became a metal base of 20,000 or 30,000 square meters.
Countless spider robots rushed out of the base, armed with all sorts of tools, and began to get busy on the planet.
The moment the base car unfolds, the real interstellar war can be regarded as begins. But unlike games, there is no safe time for development on this planet.
The Kree have been operating in this place for a long time and can be said to know the planet inside and out. Rorschach and Legolas have small goals, and it is not easy to be discovered.
But the moment the base car unfolded, the Krees on the outpost had already detected the change. Three Necromantic fighters took off decisively from the base and flew towards Rorschach.
