Russia.

Near the abandoned Chernobyl nuclear power plant.

Deep underground.

A sluice gate slowly opened on the ground like a huge mouth on the ground, with the characteristic tremor of metal, revealing a swarthy circular cavern below.

Airplanes!

Buzzing!

Buzz!

The humming sound of electronic products when they are energized and started is repeated from the cave. Streams of white lights lit up from the bottom of the swarthy cavern, cascading upwards toward the rocks. Brilliant tailfires roared up from the underground cavern with a roar, setting off strong gusts of wind.

A large engineering robot emerges from the cave and slams into solid ground.

Then a different engineering robot from the previous one landed.

After that, this area was like rain, and all kinds of robots were constantly landing on the ground, and they were as dense as dumplings. But the strange thing is that no matter how many robots there are, the whole scene is orderly and unchaotic.

If there are people in this haunted land, you can see a shocking and terrifying scene.

This area, uninhabited by humans and most living things, has rarely discarded the silent skin it once wore. The mighty torrent of metal, at this moment, opened up at full power, dispelled the silence, and brought a strange and hot development wonder.

The towers grew rapidly at a frightening construction speed.

Metal factories are being built at a rapid pace.

Metal technology creations that are familiar to human beings, or unknown to the present, are born and formed from the void little by little under the hard work of groups of industrial robots, showing the skeleton they have just built.

Half-humanoid industrial robots with hideous metal skeletons that look like crude products are busy around these skeletons. Add metallic flesh to these skeletons to make them plump.

Without anyone knowing, a miraculous metal industrial creation is rapidly expanding and growing.

……

"I knew it." Alexander Pierce laughed when he heard this: "I knew it the moment I saw Jasper Sitwell appear. ”

"Know what?" Tony Stark, who was on the side, interjected viciously. It's hard for him to stand where he is, he's not the main character! When did Tony Stark, who is the center of attention everywhere, even look for the right time to interject?

Of course, for Nick Fury and Maria Hill, they have teamed up to hide it for so long, and Tony Stark doesn't have much of a good impression of Nick Fury, and it has fallen directly into a negative number. It gave him a sense of shame that he had been fooled.

As a self-respecting genius in the development of weapons of war, Tony couldn't stand that.

"You can always find the right thread in a mess. This time you found the 'Apocalypse'? Alexander Pierce smiled: "To be honest, the current situation is the worst I guessed, but it's worth thanking. Not the worst. ”

"You think you'll be able to turn the tables?" Elena on the other side frowned.

"As long as you haven't figured out what the Apocalypse Project is, you won't dare to really attack me." Alexander Pierce said calmly: "A plan that has been prepared by Hydra for decades as the final hole card, this is like a sword of Damocles, if you don't figure it out, you don't dare to attack me." ”

"You'll always talk."

"Torture? Ha, this set doesn't work for me, or for us directors. ”

“AIM。 Pym Technologies, Trask. Worthington Laboratories, Stark Industries, Storm Enterprises. Nick Fury said coldly: "I know that Hydra's tentacles are huge and deep-rooted, and I also believe that the Apocalypse Project is a big plan, but a plan that cannot be launched cannot be considered a successful plan." ”

"It's hard to find some traces for you so quickly." Alexander Pierce smiled wryly. He pointed to Jasper Sitwell, who was standing like a stake next to him, "Did he tell you?" Some outdated intelligence that I don't know how long?

I'm sure you're here, and you're sure that all the companies you're talking about must have been rushed over by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, or Avengers, who are loyal to you. But what can they find there? It's too late for Nick, and although it hasn't reached the moment of final success, nothing can be stopped.

You can't! Neither can I! ”

"Although there is something wrong with disturbing your communication at this time. But for the latest news, Agent Patton says that a group of Iron Legions is rushing out of some corner of the ground. We're in trouble. ”

Suddenly, Agent Maria Hill, who was staying next to Nick Fury, pressed the black communicator on her left ear and hurriedly addressed Nick Fury.

"Where's our manpower?"

"I was a little caught off guard, there were too many of them, and it seemed that there was a large arsenal underneath that was constantly producing them."

"What about the protective measures at the headquarters?" Nick Fury asked rhetorically.

"Like Rumlow, the HQ protection system is ineffective against them without being disidentified by the higher-ups of S.H.I.E.L.D.."

"Are you trying to tell me that the Iron and Steel Machinery Corps that came out of nowhere has our S.H.I.E.L.D. security logo?" Nick Fury had a cold face, and one eye subconsciously swept to the side of the calm Alexander Pearce.

Maria Hill's face was also a little ugly, and anyone who had an inexplicable enemy legion at the core of his lair at some point would probably not feel too comfortable. And for an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D., what happened at the headquarters was simply a slap in the face.

Syllable!

Burning!

It hurts so much!

"Don't blame Agent Hill, it's not her fault. Headquarters has changed too much lately. Alexander Pierce clapped his hands, "I owe a lot of thanks to Stark's technical support." It is because of his help that Hydra has a fearless and terrifying army. ”

"An army of machines?" Nick Fury said calmly, "An army of machines won't be decisive, Pierce. At best, it was just another Manhattan incident in New York. ”

"An army of machines?" Alexander Pierce smiled strangely again: "Didn't you want to know about the Apocalypse Project?" That's part of Project Apocalypse! Hydra wants to rule not one country, but the whole world! A whole planet! ”

"Whether it is the United States, or other nations; Whether it's human, or something else. This time Hydra doesn't intend to leave anything to chance. Either accept the rule of Hydra. Or, it will turn into the dust of history. ”

"I appreciate your style, but I'm pessimistic about the success of this whimsical idea." Tony Stark was unwilling to be lonely and interjected again: "Who do you think you are against the whole world on your own?" Who can do that? ”

"God can." Alexander Pierce replied softly.

"How many gods have we dealt with? We have a god from Asgard who can play light. Tony Stark sarcastically spoke.

"God will cleanse you."

Suddenly, an unfamiliar electronic voice sounded in everyone's ears.

This unfamiliar voice made people's hearts, including Nick Fury, tense and looked around nervously. Only Alexander Pierce showed as calm as ever.

"Who are you?" Meng Ao looked around at the crowd on the field and around him. The current S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters is under martial law for war. Unless it is a person with a psychic ability of Professor X's level, it is impossible to break through the technological blockade of S.H.I.E.L.D. and spread the voice of the soul to the ears of those present. What's more, there is the White Queen Emma Frost outside the door.

Emma Frost, the White Queen who has been strengthened by the Mind Gem, is not any far behind Professor X in terms of psychic ability alone, and even in terms of the majesty of the energy and the scope of influence! Of course, this is Professor X, who didn't use the brainwave intensifier.

"Me? According to you humans, I'm a program. A dummy data. An artificial intelligence. If you ask my name. My creator calls me war! ”

Everyone looked at each other.

In particular, Nick Fury and several permanent members of the World Security Council looked extremely embarrassed. A few people on the field with normal faces, except for Meng Ao, who was watching the wind from the sidelines, only Tony Stark, who was eager to try.

For Tony Stark, he was more interested in the virtual intelligence that came out of nowhere than the so-called Apocalypse Project, or anything else! The other party apparently broke the blockade of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s electronic system and slipped in, which has a strong attraction to Tony Stark, who always wants to leave a backdoor in the system of a classified organization such as S.H.I.E.L.D. and persists.

"Where is it?" Yelena looked at Nick Fury, who was grim-faced. She turned her head as if she wanted to discover something. Even if she knew very well that it was futile. What she wanted. It's the S.H.I.E.L.D. system, but the S.H.I.E.L.D. system since they entered this command room. It was like a complete silence and a peaceful sleep.

No response.

Just silence.

It's like being paralyzed.

Just as it didn't have any countermeasures to the fighting that broke out at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, it is now also blind to the intrusion process.

"I'm everywhere." The voice said, "I can be anywhere in this world, as long as there is your human electronics in that corner." ”

"Who is your creator?"

Nick Fury asked out loud, he actually already had the answer in his mind, or that the artificial intelligence system that appeared had already given him an answer before.

It's called war!

It's a good fit for what Jasper Sitwell revealed about the Apocalypse Project.

"I didn't create it alone. My predecessor was Ultron, an artificial intelligence system from Pym Technology. Hank Pym is my creator. But Dr. Zola of Hydra and the researchers have added a special war program to me, expanding and upgrading my war capabilities. ”

The electronic sound sounded in a low voice. As it spoke, virtual projection images appeared in the air of the command room.

Among them is the logo of Pym Technology, and there is also the representation of the Ortron system. There are also those images of the battle of Manhattan in New York.

"You've embedded the Zetari war program into Pymtech's artificial intelligence program?" Nick Fury's gaze immediately fell on Alexander Pierce, his face turned black. "Have you not considered the consequences of doing so?"

"There are no consequences, my friend." Alexander Pierce said with a smile.

"What if it gets out of hand?" Nick Fury's eyes are like knives: "Once it gets out of hand......"

"Naturally, we have a way to deal with it." Alexander Pierce interrupted Nick Fury with a wave of his hand: "Let's get down to business, since the war has appeared, it means that Hydra's plan has been more than half successful.

The plan is irreversible. No matter how much you struggle, plan to go straight to the last step from now on.

What I have always wanted to do is to achieve my goals in the most peaceful way possible. There will be fewer people dying in this way. But things always happen, don't they? The good thing is that the accidents are constant, but they are still barely within my control.

As long as I can achieve the goal, using method one or method two, or some other backup method, it is no different for me and the hydra behind me except trouble.

I think I should leave. But we should meet again soon, at the negotiating table, or on the battlefield. ”

"There's no way you're leaving." Nick Fury glanced vaguely at Mono, captains Steve Rodgers and Tony Stark, and then turned his attention to Alexander Pierce, repeating: "There's no way I'm going to let you go." ”

"I'm afraid it's not up to you." Alexander Pierce shrugged, "If you don't want this place to be in ruins, if you don't want several permanent members of the World Security Council to die here, and if you don't want the United States to be hit by artillery fire, you'd better let me go." ”

Speaking of this, Alexander Pierce reminded Nick Fury in a serious voice: "It's not a problem for me to live Nick, I'm dead, and it's the real trouble for you." I can control the 'war' while I live, but when I die, the 'war' will go crazy. ”

"Before I do something, I have to arrange a way back for myself. So that I can live longer. That's what I've learned over the years. ”

"It's for me to get a plane ready and get out of here safely."

"Or just settle me here, and then prepare for a war that is impossible to win."

"How do you choose, Nick?"

Alexander Pierce's tone was calm, and he was tempting Nick Fury's mind step by step. (To be continued.) )
