About fifteen miles north-northwest of the city of Fawcett is a very ordinary moraine lake in Wisconsin, and nearly 100 meters below the bottom of the lake is an artificial cavern of unimaginable size for ordinary people. This is one of Hydra's bases.

No, the past tense should be used. Now the base has been completely occupied by the Resistance.

However, the new owners are still not satisfied.

"It's been so many days, and you haven't found it yet?" In the most tight command room in the base, the short-haired white man with short golden hair standing in the center turned his back to the direction of the door, looked at the big screen on the wall, and asked his subordinates who had just come in.

This subordinate is a black man, with solid muscles and a well-coordinated body, and he does not look too tall and strong, and if you just stand there without a control system, you will definitely not see that he is more than 1.9 meters tall.

The experts even compared the structure of the base found on the base's intranet and found that there were three secret rooms in the base. And one of them has a residual energy reaction, which is believed by experts to be the place where that thing was placed before. ”

"So you think that thing moved before we attacked?" With that, the white man finally stopped looking at the big screen, but turned around and looked at the black man. "Do you know what you mean by that?"

Facing the oppressive and scrutinizing gaze of the white man, the black man only nodded slightly.

The white man was not surprised by the reaction of the black men, but continued to ask: "This means that you are implying that there are spies within the organization and passing the news that we are going to launch an attack to Hydra." Even so, Digger, are you sticking to your ideas? ”

The black man known as "Digger" was named John Digger. Under the pressure of the white man, he responded calmly: "There is no doubt that there are other possibilities, after all, after seeing the capabilities of superpowers, I have found that many of my previous logics are no longer useful." Maybe this time the other party has superpowers like predicting the future or telepathy, no one can say for sure. But excluding these uncontrolled factors, from the normal logic alone, internal leaks are the most likely. ”

This is not the first time that Digger has shown his resistance and uneasiness about superpowers. From this point alone, maybe Hydra is more suitable for him, but that's all. He was once a U.S. soldier who served in Afghanistan, and although he did not make much of a name for himself, he also experienced the test of life and death. After retiring from the army, he returned to his hometown city and, like many other retired soldiers, became a bodyguard for the children of rich families, which was several years. He grew tired and tired of it, and it was at this moment that the Resistance came to the door and offered to recruit him, and unexpectedly gave him a chance to observe from the sidelines first. He then chose and watched several missions of the Resistance, and learned that the Resistance was different from the repressive rule of Hydra, and finally made up his mind to join the Resistance.

Thinking of his experience on the battlefield, his sense of powerlessness when his comrades died, and seeing some superpowers abusing their innate superpowers and not doing good deeds nowadays, this made him very disgusted, and it was also the reason why he resisted and was uneasy about superpowers. However, this kind of resistance and uneasiness is at a very rational level, and he will not hate all superpowers because of this, and swear to bring down all superpowers. Although he was not very supportive of the Resistance cooperating with the superpowers and giving them a lot of convenience, he did not oppose it. He just did what he was supposed to do. Now, just a year later, he is an assistant to a senior leader within the Resistance.

The senior officer was none other than the white man who was talking to Digger.

The white man's name is Steve Trevor, who is also a soldier in the U.S. Army. However, unlike Dig, who was a small soldier leader in Afghanistan when he joined the army, Trevor was already a colonel in the U.S. Air Force before joining the Resistance. His vision of the big picture and his ability are good enough, and as a result, his position within the Resistance is second only to the mysterious leader of the Resistance, and even more advanced than the heads of the various sub-bases of the Resistance.

This raid on Hydra's base near the city of Fawcett was organized by Trevor himself. In order to snatch from this base a huge amount of energy that Hydra had stumbled upon, he spent days planning the entire operation, considering all aspects. In order not to startle the snake, and in order to divert the attention of the hydra, he also deliberately found an outsider to invade the network of the Hydra base. However, it has all been done to this extent, and that thing was still sent away by Hydra in advance. For the reasons for this, it can be said that it is necessary to be serious.

"But the intelligence we've gathered says it's something special and can't be moved. How did the Hydra get it away without making much movement? Steve Trevor asked thoughtfully, "Did the experts give an explanation?" ”

Digger frowned and replied, "I'm thinking about that too. The intelligence said that even a crane could not lift even a millimeter. Since the crane can't, I can't think of any tool that can lift it or even carry it away with less movement than the crane. Speaking of which, he naturally added: "Except, of course, superpowers." ”

Steve Trevor glanced at Digg helplessly and shook his head slightly.

"Let the people in charge of the search close the team, they are tired after so many days of searching. There's a big battle waiting for them outside. But let the experts continue to work, and maybe they can figure out something. Speaking of which, Trevor paused, "Speaking of the outside, what do you think of the situation over there?" ”

Seeing Trevor ask about this, Dig, who had just given his latest orders, stepped forward and looked at the big screen with Trevor.

"How many waves has Hydra launched?" Digg asked.

"Twelve waves. More than 300 Hydra elements have died at our hands. And Hydra continues to send them over. I still don't understand. ”

"Our sacrifices are not much, but they are not for nothing. And I noticed that the hearts of the men under me are fluctuating now, everyone is talking about more than ten small victories in a row against Hydra, and everyone is saying that they will take the opportunity to destroy Hydra here. This doesn't seem like a good thing. ”

"Of course not." With that, Trevor slapped the table beside him hard. "This situation continues, the soldiers lose their caution, and the commanders are unable to carry out the orders of action thoroughly, which will eventually lead to failure. But I don't think Hydra is playing a trick on us. ”

Digger thought for a moment: "Maybe they want to force us to transfer more people to replace the current batch, and then find a chance to wipe us out?" ”

"No, it won't be this. I guess we overlooked something......"

At this moment, a low-level member appeared at the door of the general command room: "Sir, we have detected a flash of lightning appearing in the southeast direction out of thin air, and the experts believe that it may be related to what we are looking for." ”

Suddenly receiving such news, Trevor let out a long breath.

"Dig, you bring someone over to take a look, and allow you to act on the opportunity." He looked at his assistant solemnly and said in a serious tone, "I know you don't like to act with superpowers, but now is not the time to consider personal preferences. ”

Digg didn't respond, but after a moment of silence, nodded heavily.
