28. The last card
"Atillan... Just fell?"
On the Helicarrier, Alexander Pierce looked dumbfounded at the floating city that fell from the sky into the sea in front of him, and at this moment, the three views of this old Hydra, which had been hidden for many years, were subverted.
At the moment when Attilan appeared last night, the powerful combat power it displayed made Pierce happy, such a deterrent, coupled with the dense network of relationships that Hydra has created over the years, world domination is no longer a dream, and Pierce has even seen himself sitting on the throne of the king of the world.
But happy times are always short-lived, the dream of the king of the world has not been enough, and the fall of Attilan is like a slap in the face, completely waking him up from his fantasy.
Pierce looked at the dark sword suspended in the sky, it was it that pierced Attilan with a blow just now, and after understanding the ownership of this invincible warship in the current battlefield, Pierce suddenly realized that he should consider escaping.
He thought he was enough to look up to Cyber, and now when Cyber showed his killer move, he knew that in this hunt between hunters and prey, he and his organization had never been hunters.
What a great irony!
"Go into stealth mode, let's go!"
Pierce stood on the command podium with a gloomy face and issued the order, and at the end, he did not forget to add: "Don't attract any attention, leave quietly!"
"Sir, we've found a signal requesting transmission!"
The liaison officer in front of the battleship console reported loudly: "It's... It's a signal from Agent Hilvet who has been confirmed dead, and he's right below the city!
"Huh?"
Pierce's eyes lit up and he nodded, "Send him in." β
Agent Gatler next to him who watched this scene hated it so much, and Hilvert's villain had a really high status in Pierce's heart, even if he was on the way to escape, he didn't forget to bring this guy with him.
"Buzz"
The light of the teleportation flashed, and the extremely miserable Agent Hilvet appeared on the bridge, his head was wrapped in bandages, there were visible blood stains on it, he was holding a cane in his hand, and his clothes were tattered.
"Sir... Uh... I, I'm back. β
Agent Hilvert bowed to Pierce with difficulty, his face and eyes cracked in the war, he first looked left and right at the layout of the command room, and then said loudly:
"Why are our warships leaving the battlefield now?
"Didn't fail? Agent Hilvet, are you blind?"
Gatler mocked mercilessly, "So what are you going to do? Do you suddenly tear off your clothes and turn into Superman and go to knock Cyber Hawk to the ground? Or do you suddenly awaken the ability and control those non-humans to unite and turn defeat into victory? Don't you see that Attilan has been killed by the Devil Gang, and we leave them to eat?"
"Are you going to rely on someone else?"
Agent Sylvet retorted fearlessly: "Whitehall and we are not of the same mind, you may not know it, he just released the Terrigan Crystal Mist, trying to turn us and the entire city into Inhumans, or simply die, if it wasn't for the Devils Gang to kill Attillan, you would have hung up by now, idiot!"
The bald agent looked a little out of control because of his injuries, and he pointed at Gatler in front of Pierce and yelled:
"I warned you, Agent Gatler, that we need to be careful of Whitehall and Gideon, they're scheming old bastards who can't be trusted!
"Huh?"
Pierce's expression immediately became ugly, and he looked at Gatler suspiciously, who wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Hilvet:
"Sir, you probably don't know how the Hulk escaped, let me tell you, I was on duty in the laboratory at the time, and was ordered to protect the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, but Whitehall's people rushed in and kidnapped me, and when I was taken to the cage where the Hulk was being held, that place was supposed to be kept secret, only you know... But Whitehall also knew. β
"Gatler, what else do you have to say!"
The bald agent shouted angrily, "You two-faced and three-knife shit!"
"Is Hilvett really telling the truth? Gatler!"
Pierce's voice raised several degrees, and he slapped the table and shouted, "Look at me and tell me if what he said is true?"
Agent Gatler certainly didn't want to be so restrained, but the problem was that he had told Ward that he had to find a way out of everything, and he did it himself... Although Hilwitt made up what happened, the problem is that Gatler really secretly surrendered to Whitehall, and this pot is now on his head, which is not considered a slander.
He wanted to refute, but Agent Gatler, who was familiar with Pierce's vicious personality, knew very well that this matter could not be concealed at present, and he wanted to speak, but Pierce suddenly stretched out his hand, and he sighed:
"Forget it, Whitehall is dead, and it's no fun to talk about it now... Hilvert, what do you mean when you just said that we haven't failed yet?"
The bald agent gave Gatler a hateful look, and he breathed several times to calm himself down, and whispered:
"Sir, don't forget, there are three Apocalypse ships parked in the underground base on the outskirts of New York... The insight plan, the fully automatic use of the manual computing platform, the prediction algorithm written by Dr. Zola himself, the rapid-fire serial battery designed by Ivan Vanke, can cover the entire East Coast, the accuracy of the error will not exceed 3 meters, and it only takes one shelling, we can wipe out all the devilish members and those nasty heroes in the whole of New York... You see, there is an opportunity in any crisis, and they are now together, as long as we take a risk... Everything will be different!"
"Well..."
Pierce's eyes lit up suddenly, to be honest, when he saw Attillan, he did leave Project Insight behind, because in his mind, Attillan's level of technology was much higher than that of the Helicarrier made by S.H.I.E.L.D., and if there was a war fortress like Attillan, there was really no need for Project Insight.
But now that Attilan is gone, wouldn't the completed Insight Project come in handy again?
"But don't forget, this plan is too risky, and there is a good chance that we will fail!"
Unwilling to fail, Agent Gatler found the opportunity to give Hilvert eye medicine, and the bald agent gave him a disdainful look:
"In this situation, even if it fails, it is much better than doing nothing and just trying to escape!"
"Alright!
Pierce slapped the table and turned to look at Hilvet, the bald agent looked embarrassed, but his problem-solving skills were truly outstanding!
It's really hard to find such a subordinate.
He nodded with satisfaction:
"Okay, just do it!, but to activate Project Insight, someone needs to go to the base outside New York to perform the wake-up procedure, based on the current situation on the surface of New York..."
"I'll go!"
Before Pierce could finish his sentence, Agent Hilvet muttered, "I'm going to activate it!" That thing requires Level 8 clearance, only the three of us are eligible here, Mr. Gatler will definitely not go, and I can't put the chief in danger, sir, give me the wake key, let me go." β
"Hilvet, you... Alas. β
To tell the truth, Pierce, who has been a hero all his life, is really a little moved now, only when he is in trouble, can he see a person's true character, compared to Gatler's two-faced and three-faced, Hilvet's fearless dedication In this difficult moment, Pierce feels the solemnity of joining Hydra when he was young and being inspired by the mission, the quality that can only be seen in the older generation of agents, and now it is revived in Hilvet.
But moving is moving, this mission to die is willing to go, that's great!
Pierce took a black triangular socket from his close-fitting pocket, handed it to Hilvert, and patted him on the shoulder:
"Hilvet, go, as long as you come back alive, I promise you the position of chief officer, you are a real hydra!"
"Well, when I joined the organization, I had a premonition that there would be such a day. β
Hilvert took the key, put his left hand on his chest, and shouted:
"I'm honored to fight alongside you, sir!"
Pierce nodded, watching Hilvert leave, but just before he stepped into the teleportation array, the bald agent seemed to suddenly remember something, he raised his head and glanced at Pierce, who froze for a moment, then coughed lightly, Agent Gatler looked hateful, but still had to walk out of the command room.
"Sir, on my way back, I was in the army of the Devil's Gang and heard a piece of news. β
The bald agent whispered, "I've heard that since Cyber returned from the Demon Realm, he has been frantically searching for the World Engine... I mean, if you can't do it, you can..."
"Make a deal with him, alas... I see what you mean. β
Pierce's fingers tapped on the table, and after a moment of thought, he nodded:
"Well, this secret is something you shouldn't know, but if you still have a chance to survive, you can go to the Greek Peninsula in Europe, Secret Base 101, we will be waiting for you there, well, half a month. β
"Oh, it's the one at the bottom of the sea... I know. β
The bald agent's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "Wait for my good news, and wish me success, sir!"
βHail HydraοΌοΌβ
With a roaring oath, Hilvet strode into the teleportation array and vanished, Pierce looking at the direction in which he had disappeared, a little stunned.
Once when he was young, he had a subordinate like Hilvert, his name was Nick Fury, the same loyalty, the same good at solving problems, he was raised to the throne of the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., but unfortunately he was killed by his own order.
Now it's Hilvert again, and Pierce can't help but fall into a strong sense of dΓ©jΓ vu... There was a faint worry in his heart, but he didn't know where it came from, and just as he was thinking about it, a loud bang exploded on the helicarrier, startling the pensive Pierce, he looked up, and saw in the monitor, Skye in black combat uniform and crystal in yellow combat uniform joined forces to tear open the protective layer of the deck and rush into the battleship.
"Hydra bastards, the hatred of my parents, and the innocents you killed, I've come to avenge them!"
"Whitehall, get out of here and face me!"
"Bang"
Pierce's fist slammed on the table, the hydra was really finished, and even two little kids could learn to kill Seber Hawk and go straight to the spring, it was an unbearable humiliation! He is also a famous boss in human civilization, where can he endure this kind of treatment!
"Winter Soldiers! Assemble the team, take the special guards, and kill them!"
Pierce adjusted the monitor to the place where the Winter Soldier was, and just gave the order angrily, and then saw the crimson armor driven by the Winter Soldier being thrown out like garbage, and under the gaze of the camera in the passage, Black Widow, Patton, Captain America, Phil Coulson, Iron Man in armor, and the demonic non-level agent Hill approached step by step, like a classic hero image coming out of the dark dawn.
Agent Coulson looked up and saw the camera above, and he raised his finger and shook it at it.
It's like saying:
"Are you ready? Pierce, we're here to get you. β
