Chapter 142: Magical Magic
I don't know if it's because of the excitement that I saw Rhaegar use the 'gun fighting technique' and affected his will and performance, or if he was just exhausted, or maybe he was angry because Rhaegar tried his own moves, in short, not long after that, the Winter Soldier completely lost the chance to turn the tables after being beaten by Rhaegar with his feet on the ground for dozens of seconds in a row.
And Rhaegar felt a bit of a pity, because the Winter Soldier was not at the normal level when he fought him, and he couldn't better test the limits of his own abilities. However, he didn't make any further moves against the Winter Soldier. Considering that the Winter Soldier is also a decades-old veteran within Hydra, it is believed that the Resistance is willing to dig up some information from him, so Rhaegar directly handed him over to Rick Flleg.
In this whole battle, both sides suffered heavy losses. More than a dozen people died on Hydra's trip, and the remaining four were taken prisoner, and the 'Goldfish' submarine also fell into the hands of Rhaeggar. On the Resistance's side, although only five people were killed, that was all except Rick Fleg, and it was even worse on the Resistance's side. Not to mention this captain alone, even if his power exoskeleton suit is not destroyed, it will definitely not be able to stop the Hydra's actions on the Wakanda side, now it is indeed irreparable, and more importantly, the people that the resistance was supposed to protect, those natives who fled from Wakanda, including the chief, have died for the most part, and the few who remain don't even know why their own people were killed. So strictly speaking, Hydra has succeeded in its operation tonight, and they have killed all the witnesses who can prove that the epidemic in Wakanda is related to Stark Industries and even Hydra.
With just a few + weapons printed with the Stark Industries trademark, it is naturally impossible to completely connect Stark Industries and even Hydra to the infectious disease that is now breaking out in Wakanda. So, considering that the Resistance was already overstretched, the task of sabotaging Hydra's operation and gathering more useful evidence fell to the two foreign helpers, Rhaegar and Zatana.
For this, Rhaegar came up with an idea.
"If there's a way, we can go back the way we came with the small submarine I stole and see if we can take this opportunity to raid the Hydra camp or something. But before we can do that, we need to figure out how to operate this mini-submarine and whether or not it needs to be verified by the Hydra people over there or something. ”
As she spoke, Rhaegar looked at Rick Fleg, who had tied the unconscious Winter Soldier with twine and rope. In his opinion, only the special forces captain of the resistance group on the scene may know how to operate the equipment on the mini-submarine.
Zatana? She's on the magic side. Rega barely manages the microwave for her, and you still expect her to play submarine?
At first, Rick Flegg didn't realize that he was being 'high hopes', so Rhaegar asked him directly. Noticing the look of astonishment on his face, Rhaegar felt that his plan was about to be aborted. Luckily, Rick Flegg said, "I'm going to be there first", leaving Rhaegar with a glimmer of hope. Rhaegar thought that maybe Rick Flegg was just more low-key and modest. Unfortunately, this glimmer of hope was completely shattered after more than ten minutes. When Rhaegar took the Resistance Squad Leader and Zatana to dive inside the Goldfish after disposing of the Winter Soldier, Rick Flegg shook his head at Rhaeggar's disappointed and helpless gaze after fiddling with the console for a while.
"It's a system unlike anything I've seen before. I can find a few similar settings to try it out first, and maybe I can test out how it works. However, I was worried that the alarm setting that might exist would be triggered during my testing, just like the average person who enters the wrong password three to five times and is locked out of their account. If this alarms the Hydra on the other side of this mini-submarine, it will be more than worth the loss. ”
This is indeed the truth, and Rhaegar can only reluctantly accept the reality. Now there seems to be only one direction left.
"Don't tell me that the natives didn't tell you where they were. Where did they see the equipment with the Stark Industries logo on it in the first place? ”
Rhaegar was greeted by a wry smile from Rick Fleg.
"We didn't expect Hydra to send someone after them, and we didn't think Hydra would be able to find their location. According to my plan, they would send three young men to lead the way, and we would set off at dawn and then sneak along the shores of Lake Turkana into Wakanda, diving for a while or something. In addition to waiting for you to arrive in the past few days, we are also preparing diving equipment. I didn't expect ...... Alas! ”
Halfway through this, Rhaegar put his hand on his forehead. There is no manpower and no direction, and this makes the organization how to carry out its work!
The two big men were at a loss here, but Zatanna, who had not spoken, spoke.
"I have a way." She said, "I have a way. ”
It's not that 'important things have to be said several times', but when Zatana said it for the first time, neither Rhaegar who was still meditating and Rick Flleg, who was secretly annoyed and regretful, didn't react. And even when she said it was the second time, Rhaegar and the others were still a little stunned, and there was a "what did you say" expression on her face.
In the face of such a situation, ordinary women think that they are despised, even if they don't lose their temper, they will be resentful, and even have extreme thoughts. But Zatanna won't. She smiled softly, then pointed to the three Hydra members who had been knocked unconscious, tied up, and left on the submarine by Rhaegar before, and asked Rhaegar "Are they the pilots of this submarine?" ”
Rhaegar is not used to associating 'driver' with 'submarine'. He was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
The rest of the day was nothing for him. Zatanna clasped her hands in front of her chest, made a gesture, and whispered a mantra. Ten seconds later, her hands were folded out, and a pale cyan magic array appeared in front of her, in front of Rhaegar and Rick Fleg. Without waiting for the curiosity in the hearts of the two magic blind generals behind her to ask, Zatana turned the complex magic array towards one of the Hydra members, and then gently pushed her arms forward.
The magic array detached from the range of Zatana's arms, and flew forward without hurry, shrinking in size as it progressed, until it went from the size of a dart target to the size of a ping-pong ball, flew into the forehead of the Hydra member, and then disappeared without a trace.
The next moment, the Hydra member woke up without warning.
"I ...... Where am I? What's wrong with me? ”
At the same time, Zatana, who was already not in a good state, probably consumed the last bit of magic power, or mental power or something, Regar didn't know, she was a little shaky, and Rhaegar hurriedly assisted her. And she still didn't wait for Rhaegar to ask, and said, "Untie him." ”
Hearing Zatana's words, Rick Fleg, the only one who was idle, hesitated, so he looked at Rhaegar who was helping Zatana to sit down. Rhaegar also wanted to ask what was going on, but he didn't expect the Hydra member to move first. The Hydra members, who were still a little frightened and confused, first looked at Zatana following the sound, and the moment he saw Zatana, he suddenly bowed to Zatanna, and as a result, he was suddenly planted in the place because his hands were tied.
But he did not seem to feel any embarrassment or inappropriateness, but looked vigorously at Zatana, and said, "At your service, my lady!" ”
Rhaegar and Rick Flegg were so surprised that their jaws dropped.
