Chapter 412: Central
"Boom!"
Hundreds of meters of waves burst out of the Pacific Ocean, and with them some blackened metal fragments. In the center of the snow-white waves, the black armor broke out like a drop in the ocean, rose high into the air, stopped in mid-air and scanned down with super vision, and after confirming that nothing was missed, it immediately accelerated in the air, dragging the churning air wave behind it into the sky.
Not far away, in an observatory on the coast.
Baron Zemo snorted lightly, left the telescope, and said, "I already knew that that idiot of Sitrix couldn't do great things, and sooner or later the Hydra in his hands would come to this point. β
He was referring to Hydra's current top high-ranking Baron Sytrik, and perhaps he was the only one qualified to insult Baron Sytrik like this. When the Nazis were founded, Baron Zemo was one of the Nazis' finest scientists, a popular man in Hitler's eyes, and a Hydra leader-level cadre. And now, he has long since severed ties with Hydra...... Temporary.
"So Hydra is over for today?" A man dressed as a general asked behind him.
"Finished? No, the hydra is immortal. You cut off a head, and it will regenerate more. Zemo said, pausing, "But this time it could be the hardest hit, and maybe even that idiot of Sitrix himself was done in the attack." Hydra needs someone who can really take charge of the overall situation at this time to step up and guide it back on track......"
As he spoke, he paused and added, "...... People just like me. β
At this moment, Eric, who had already solved the Hydra headquarters and was supposed to go back to join Fury, did not return, but continued to accelerate and fly farther away.
Observing his actions through satellites, Fury frowned, "What else does this kid want to do?" β
Unfortunately, soon, even the satellites were unable to keep up with himβhe was so fast that it was almost impossible for any known tracking method on Earth to keep up with him at that speed.
Somewhere on the Atlantic coast.
It's a beautiful place. The blue sea, the turquoise trees, like two colored cloths of sea blue and emerald green, are intertwined and surround a huge manor. There is a white villa in the manor, from the window of the villa, you can see the blue sea, and you can look up and see the jungle full of mountains.
There was a sound of thunder in the blue sky, and the afterimage descended from the clouds. Eric landed in the manor, and the moment his footsteps landed, he set off a terrifying wave of air, which made the flowers and plants in the garden bend his waist and the trees around him also whirl.
Eric frowned, and looked at the villa for a few moments to make sure he was in the wrong place. He tried to see through the room with X-sight, but he noticed that every wall in the room was stuffed with lead, and X-sight didn't do anything.
In this way, the master is a very cautious person. But when Eric stepped forward and grabbed the handle of the luxurious wooden door in the Western European style, he noticed that the door was not locked at allβno, the door was not locked at all, it was just a lavish decoration.
Walking inside, the villa gave him a special kind of work that he couldn't describe. It has a duplex structure, and each piece of furniture seems to have been carefully selected for luxury, and so many luxuries put together make one smell of money without smelling the slightest hint of money, giving people an indescribable sense of harmony.
Eric was a little stunned, a little different from what he had expected to see.
"Need help?"
Suddenly, a voice rang out from the back of his neck, almost as close as if it were in his own head. Eric gasped and turned around to see a man standing behind him at some point.
It was a middle-aged man with blond hair, a dark brown robe and a beard on his chin, who watched his movements with a smile on his face.
Eric was secretly amazed, knowing that now that his armor had strengthened his senses to superhuman levels, even the sound of silver needles falling on the ground could not escape his ears. And when this man came behind him, he didn't even notice it at all, could he still be a ghost?
His instinct told Eric that if this man had just made a malicious attack, he might not feel very comfortable.
Eric stared at the man and asked, "Who are you?" β
"Don't you think it sounds funny when you break into my house and ask me who I am?" He said with a smile on his face.
"But you're not surprised that I'm here." Eric said, "So you're waiting for me?" β
"No, I was just planting tweed hundreds of miles away." "But when someone came to the house, I came back right away." β
He spoke in such a calm tone that it was as if what he said was something that everyone could take for granted.
Although it was a little different from what he imagined in his mind, Eric hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Are you the ...... 'hub' they call it?" β
"'Hub,' the people who make everything work, they seem to call me that."
The man didn't mean to hide it, but it surprised Eric even more and didn't know how to unfold. According to the original expectation, the "center" should be a cunning bastard who hides behind the scenes, and the base should be like the ultimate boss in a science fiction movie. And he himself should be dressed in evil black clothes and strategize behind a circle of computers with his legs crossed.
And now, he looks like ...... Eric didn't know how to describe this guy anymore. He had a lot of questions, but he didn't know where to start.
But it was the man who spoke first: "But no one has ever come to the door for so many years...... Would you like to tell us how you found it? β
"I didn't find it, Hydra found it." Eric admits, "I just blew up Hydra's headquarters and destroyed a piece of vital code that was stored in it. But they've used the power of that code to track down the 'hub'. β
"I see." The man showed a look of understanding, "Sure enough, none of these people are fuel-efficient lamps." The name 'Hub' was what the gang wanted to call themselves, and I personally think it's a pretty silly codename. If you don't mind, when you introduce someone to me, you can call me 'Bishop'. β
At this point, he paused slightly, then continued with a smile: "There are also some issues that you are concerned about, and I do know them. It doesn't seem like you've figured out what questions to ask, so I'll just answer straight to save you the trouble......"
β...... Yes, it was I who released that sub-Morjo robot in the first place and brought your life to where it is today. β
