Chapter 334: The Awkward Extreme Agent
"Why hasn't he come back yet? It can't be any danger! Leaning against the window and looking out, Betsy looked worried. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is Segovia, the closest thing to the Hydra stronghold of Baron Straker, in an apartment building on the outskirts of one of the cities where Ultron now occupies. Betsy, a computer expert, and her teammates arrived a day ago.
A day earlier, they had set out from the makeshift assembly point on the border between Latvia and Segovia, easily bypassing the few border guards in Segovia and avoiding a Segovian assassination party known as the Red Scorpions. With another group of mercenaries invited by Latvia attracting the attention of Ultron, Segovia, and the vast majority of the international community, they made it to the present place.
To be honest, the relative high profile of the other group of mercenaries was one of the reasons why they were moving smoothly, and the other reason was that Betsy and the others had Zorro on their side. Even a proud Sand had to admit it, though he didn't say it. Extreme Agent, characterized by the word "extreme". After all, Sander himself was born in extreme sports, and now he is a master. In addition, the other members are also good at extreme sports (presumably except for Betsy). But just on the "agent" side...... Together, multiplied by an arbitrary number, they are no match for Zorro. At least the sneaking, rushing, vigilance and anticipation along the way, as well as gathering intelligence, if it weren't for Zorro to help them, they would have been discovered long ago.
And while this became the reason why they reluctantly admired Zorro, it was also the reason why they still doubted Zorro. In Xiang's words, they are better suited to the other team of mercenaries, after all, they are more eye-catching. Why the hell did they get used in the real infiltration?
In the entire team of extreme agents, Betsy didn't have much opinion about Zorro. In fact, although Sander, Knicks and others had advised her not to contact Zorro before, if she hadn't reconciled with her in the past two days, the two sides would probably have pulled each other back, even if they didn't fight.
Well, while Sander they don't want to admit it, they also know that it's more likely that they're pulling Zorro's back legs...... On the one hand, it makes it harder for them to accept that they are on the same team as Zorro.
Unfortunately, there is no way, they can only accept this result. Not to mention that Doctor Doom offered them a very good price, but the point is that they came for other purposes. The thought of the assignment they had received from another place made Sander's head flutter.
Just then, the Knicks, who had just gone out to make a phone call, came back.
"What's the matter, is there any result?" Ignoring Betsy, who was nagging over there, Sander asked directly to the Knicks, who pushed the door in.
Seeing that the boss asked about himself, Knicks withdrew the frowning expression of looking at Betsy and turned to complain.
"Finally, I finally heard something useful from the mouths of those guys. After all, I've just met them, and I've only said hello to that extent. And those guys want to be above the top, it's really ......"
Nix was talking about some of the mercenaries he had known at the time of the semi-militarized staging point. Like he said, this friendship is not even a nod of the head. It's not easy to ask what to ask from those people.
However, Sander did not come to listen to his grievances.
"Nyx!"
was stared at tightly by the boss, and he had to drink like this, and the Knicks didn't dare to sell it anymore.
"Okay, okay, I'll just say that." He said helplessly, "Those guys didn't know the idea of this grouping, but several of them helped me find out, and the leader over there said that the result came directly from the actual leader of Latvia, Doctor Doom." ”
Sander frowned, "So, it was Doctor Doom who put us on the same team as Zorro?" ”
"Perhaps." The Knicks glanced over to Becky, intentionally or unintentionally. "There is one more piece of news. It was noted that Zorro had spoken with Dr. Doom for nearly ninety minutes on the latter's plane before the results of the grouping were officially announced. So I thought, is there a possibility that we were put in a group with Zorro to do the work of real infiltration, and Zorro proposed it? ”
Asking "is it possible," the Knicks' remarks are clearly leaning toward the "most likely" aspect — at least Sander was influenced by this not-so-subtle hint.
"Damn it!" Sander unconsciously scolded in a low voice, "The task is already very tricky, and now there is one more guy in the way!" Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered a question: "By the way, Nix, when you asked those people for news, you didn't arouse their suspicions, did you?" ”
Nicks pouted and shook his head.
"Boss, you have to believe in my ability, it's not the first time I've done this kind of thing. Not to mention that I've known them before, if it's at a bar, I can get them to confess the color of their underwear to me in 15 minutes! "As an expert at setting the mood, Knicks is confident in his ability to communicate." Besides, even if I miss a point or two, they won't notice. ”
The sentence he added made Sander curious.
"Why?"
"You wouldn't have thought that the team was discussing how to kick out their captain!" Seeing Sander ask, Knicks smiled and said, "They said that guy didn't understand anything, but they pointed at them. In fact, several of them had already left the group and were acting alone. There was also a guy named Deathstroke who directly grabbed the guy by the collar and threw it aside, and that guy didn't even dare to say a few words, it was really soft enough......"
This situation instantly refreshed Sander's three views.
"Didn't you say that the arrangement of the team came directly from Dr. Doom? If that guy really had that softness and was put to be the captain - wouldn't Dr. Doom be so stupid, would he? I heard that guy was the former pope of Latvia, the previous leader. Maybe this was a reparation that Doctor Doom gave him after overthrowing him? ”
"Who knows!" Nicks hadn't finished laughing yet, "If only Dr. Doom were really that stupid, our mission would have been easier." ”
Sander doesn't see it that way.
"No, if Dr. Doom was really that stupid, he certainly wouldn't be the dictator of Latvia, and we wouldn't need to be here at all." He calmly analyzed, "Maybe it was premeditated." Or rather, it was part of one of Dr. Doom's plans. It is possible that Zorro was one of the participants in the plan. So we ......"
At this point, Sander was interrupted.
"So what do you want?"
Startled, Sander subconsciously looked to the side, only to see Zorro standing there, looking at him with a smile on his face.
That's embarrassing.
(Sorry, this chapter is a little late.) But I'm still cheeky to ask for support~)
