Chapter Seventy-Eight: Betrayal
July 1937.
Germany launched the Battle of Britain, and a large number of planes crossed the Channel to attack Great Britain, and the war burned to the British mainland.
At the same time, Germany and Soviet Russia held a general battle in the North Bukovina area, tens of thousands of steel torrents, drowning the German army, 100,000 German troops, and the whole army was annihilated.
It was Germany's first defeat, a result that frustrated the German people and excited the European Union.
Subsequently, the Soviet Union and Russia increased their troops by another 500,000, and at the same time, more than 60,000 American troops also officially landed in Europe.
The German presidential palace, the shadow of the defeat in the war, made the soldiers guarding the presidential palace a little depressed, their spirit was not good, and they were listless.
In the presidential palace, John knelt in front of Chen Xu and handed over the collected information to Chen Xu, "Lord Wizard, the United States has mobilized many scientists to study a secret weapon, but they are well guarded, and the shadow has not collected more information for the time being. ”
"Secret weapon?" Chen Xu was puzzled, "Who are the people who are summoned?" ”
The person who led the study was Dr. Robert Oppenheimer, and the participants included Fermi, Szilard and Taylor...... It is said that more than 10,000 people participated in the research, and more than $500 million was invested. ”
"Atomic bomb?" Chen Xu's hand clenched the information, and his hand was trembling.
There are only many weapons in human beings, only a nuclear bomb can completely kill him, the explosion of a nuclear bomb can destroy his **, and the radiation produced by a nuclear bomb can destroy his soul, so that he doesn't even have a chance to transform himself into a mummy.
Forcing himself to calm down, Chen Xu asked, "What is the name of this research project, or what is their internal code name?" ”
"The Manhattan Project." John immediately replied, then with some trepidation, "Wizard, is this project a threat to us?" ”
"It's not just a threat, it's just killing us." Chen Xu roared angrily: "The power of the atomic bomb is enough to destroy a city, and the powerful radiation it produces after its explosion can destroy our souls, so that we don't even have a chance to transfer our souls, and completely disappear from this world." ”
John was terrified, not by the power of the nuclear bomb, but by the deep fear of the wizards, who had always been invincible.
He can not care about the defeat on the battlefield, because he believes that the wizard can turn the tide, but now that even the wizard is so jealous of the Americans' secret weapon, the fate of Germany seems to be not good.
"John, what is Schmidt doing now." Chen Xu calmed down, he looked at the panicked John, and comforted: "Don't worry, the secret weapon of the Americans has not been researched yet, and we still have time." ”
Research on the atomic bomb is not an overnight thing, especially from the beginning to the end, and it takes a long time.
He had plenty of time to destroy, to take it, just like to take the Superman Serum.
"And when the time comes, I will personally take action, sabotage their research, and seize their materials." Chen Xu said.
Hearing this, John was convinced that with the help of the wizards, the secret research of the Americans would only become the material of Germany.
Moreover, even the wizards are so afraid of this secret weapon, presumably this weapon is very powerful, and Germany can use this weapon to sweep the battlefield at that time.
"Yes, my lord, Schmidt is currently working on his weapon, and according to Shadow, he has specially designed a mecha for his weapon that can cover a person and resist bullets." John reported.
"Good." Chen Xu said: "Now that his research is complete, there is no need for this person to continue to exist. ”
"Is this a witch to get rid of traitors?" John asked, "Since Schmidt has long been rebellious, why don't you kill him early, but keep him until now." ”
"Because he hadn't thought of betraying me before!" Chen Xu said: "When I first arrived in Germany, there was no one under my hands, he was the first person to take refuge in me, and he made great achievements for my development in Germany. ”
"If it weren't for his betrayal, I wouldn't be willing to give up this kind of talent."
Chen Xu is very sorry for Schmidt, this person can fight, research, engage in intelligence, and form a special combat team, he is an all-round talent, but his ambition is too big, so big that he is unwilling to surrender in front of Chen Xu, so he can only end his life by death.
"Please let me help your lord get rid of the traitors!" John offered to ask.
"Why?" Chen Xu stared at John and asked why.
"Because the shadow was formed by Schmidt, and he still has influence in it, I can't completely master the shadow, but if I kill Schmidt, I can remove all his influence and completely master the shadow." John explained.
"I can give you this chance." Chen Xu agreed to John.
He also knew that the shadow was an intelligence organization formed by Schmidt, and Schmidt's influence penetrated into all aspects, and John wanted to completely master the shadow, and only by killing Schmidt with his own hands and cutting off the hearts of those loyal to Schmidt could he completely master the shadow.
"Go ahead, I'll keep an eye on you, and be careful yourself."
"Thank you, sir."
……
German underground base.
John led two elite soldiers over, and his arrival interrupted Schmidt's research, which made Schmidt a little unhappy.
"You're here."
As soon as they met, Schmidt said to John angrily, "You are not welcome here. ”
"Huan welcomes me or not, it's not for you to decide, only the wizard can decide." John sneered, "Do you really think you're the master here?" Feel free to call the shots! ”
"Also, I have a shadow, and my status is higher than yours, so you should keep your head down and talk to me."
"John, don't deceive people too much." Schmidt couldn't stand it.
"If you don't betray the wizard, I don't even have the qualifications." John sneered: "It's a pity that you betrayed the wizard, so your rights were deprived by the wizard, and I, loyal to the wizard, so I replaced you." ”
"What the hell did you say in front of the wizard?" Schmidt's face was as cold as an iceberg, "Don't provoke my relationship with the wizard. ”
"Still need me to provoke?" John also followed Schmidt and sneered, "Don't think I don't know what you've done. ”
"When you privately mobilized a team of people to Norway, you knew very well what you wanted."
"You got the Dragon Jade, one of the four great artifacts in Norse mythology and legend, but you don't give it to the wizard."
A long time ago, Chen Xu said to his subordinates that once he found any person or thing related to mythology, he needed to report it to him and hand it over to him, which was the rule.
When Schmidt heard this, his face turned unnatural, "What dragon treasure jade, I haven't heard of it." ”
Schmidt knew very well that once his secret possession of the Dragon's Jade was revealed, death would be his only fate.
"Really?" John laughed, snapped his fingers, "You come and tell Admiral Schmidt why I knew he had the Dragon Jewel." ”
It was a soldier who came out in response.
"You betrayed me?" Schmidt recognized this soldier at a glance, the soldier who had followed him to Norway in the first place, and all of a sudden, his face was distorted with anger.
The soldiers were a little afraid of Schmidt, and when they saw Schmidt's body, they trembled and did not dare to speak.
"Don't be afraid." John softly reassured the soldiers, "Tell me everything about the time, I will protect you, I am now the leader of the shadows, and Schmidt is not." ”
"Admiral Schmidt took us to Norway to seize something called the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which later became the Dragon Jewel." The soldier recalled, and told the scene at that time.
"That's enough." Schmidt finally couldn't stand it anymore, his face was blood-red, he couldn't stand it anymore, he tore through his disguise, "John, you trash, I'm going to kill you." ”
Since he was injected with Superman Serum, he has been suppressing his mind, trying not to show such emotions as tyranny, and in front of Chen Xu, he even maintained his humility.
This is because he understands that he is not Chen Xu's opponent yet, so he is very fortunate to suppress himself.
But now, he doesn't suppress it, he doesn't suppress his soul anymore, he releases the tyrannical side of his soul, no matter what Chen Xu, no matter what magic, he can't care about anything.
"You know what? I've always been very lucky. He grabbed the skin around his neck and pulled it up step by step, "I suppressed my surname and didn't let my true surname be revealed, in fact, I always wore a mask." ”
"But even so, if you don't let me live, then I don't need to suppress myself."
"Let me show you what I really am." Schmidt roared angrily, and he ripped his face off, revealing his blood-red face, "This is the price of gaining power." ”
"This is the face of the devil, and today, I'm going to show you foolish people my power."
"You've turned yourself into this." John was frightened by Schmidt's appearance, the blood-red color covered almost his entire skull, eyebrows and hair were gone, such a man was not so much a man as a skeleton and a devil.
"Stupid people? I think it's you. He forced his composure, "Do you know how ridiculous you are to betray the wizard. ”
As he spoke, he was secretly gesticulating, and at the same time pressed the contact on his waist and signaled it.
"When you reach my stage, you will naturally understand how ridiculous it is to surrender to others." Schmidt was almost on the move, and John was on the defensive.
However, Schmidt's next action left John dumbfounded.
He turned around and left, and actually ran into the base.
A terrifying figure who was still menacing and wanted to kill people just now, turned around and ran, clean and neat, without dragging mud and water, which made John stunned in place for a moment.
John, who reacted, immediately became furious, "Chase, chase after me, this damn guy actually deceived me." ”
