Chapter 365: New and Good (I)
New York is a veritable city that never sleeps, especially the buildings near Financial Street in Manhattan, which are lit up all night, and even though it's already 11 p.m., the lights here are still bright as day, and the streets are full of people.
In the Arkham Sanatorium not far from Wall Street, Schiller was working at his desk when a special security phone rang in his hand, and he picked it up and said, "Hey, hello, yes, I'm the 'doctor'......"
"Yes, that's right, I'm sorry for what happened to Director Pierce...... 4 bases in East New York? I'm sorry, but I've got so much work on my hands right now, and you know, I'm the only senior member in New York who can still maintain communication and not go into silence......"
“…… Well, but I can only accept a maximum of two bases, leaving two ...... I suggest that you give up strategically and withdraw the personnel from it......"
"What? A safe place? …… I'm sorry, but Director Pierce didn't leave me enough safe places before he went silent, and now it's all full. ”
Schiller sighed and said, "It's not that I want the lion to open his mouth, but there are too many people coming to me...... Yes, thank you for understanding me, the additional personnel on the preservation plan list, on a capitation basis, $300,000 each for senior management and important researchers......"
Listening to the reply from the other side, Schiller covered his forehead, his tone turned a little cold, and he said, "Do you think now is the time to bargain?" The West Coast is their main target, and do you know how much risk I'm going to take with the people who receive you? ”
"Don't tell me this, everyone knows that the current emergency transfer operation is all for you to preserve your descendants, and only my safe base here is reliable, if you are willing to be cheated of money by those scammers, then I will not stop you......"
"50? No, I've said it all, the number of places is limited, and you can only be given 15 places at most, and one person will be counted at 300,000 dollars...... Well, 9% off, for the sake of all of us who have worked under Director Pierce......"
Schiller sighed, put the phone down, leaned back in his chair and stretched, then looked at Nick Fury, who was sitting across from him.
Nick Fury looked up from his desk and said, "Another $5 million in money, huh?" ”
"Again, we have 55 accounts, but I think this little money can't make up for the psychological trauma caused by overtime."
As soon as Schiller wanted to stand up and make a cup of coffee, the phone rang again, and Schiller picked up the phone and said, "Hey, hello, this is the 'doctor', what?" Your base has been attacked? I'm sorry, but I don't have the extra manpower to rescue you. ”
"The person who attacked you was Captain America? Even if it were God who attacked you, I would not be able to save you......"
"Well, I can only show you an escape route, please go to New York Harbor immediately, there will be a special agent to pick you up, but if you want to move to a safe location, please send a message to your boss and ask him to pay your security fee......"
"I repeat, this is not blackmail, now that the security base is already full, you want to come in without paying the bill, what will the others think? You'd better call your boss quickly, if he's willing to pay, then you're saved, and if he's not, then God bless you......"
With that, Schiller hung up the phone, and Nick quipped, "Ruthless, doctor." ”
"Each other, each other."
After Schiller made a Li Dai Tao stiff, made Pierce silent all the channels, and killed his remaining backhand, Garrett, he completely took control of the S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives, and created a security plan to turn Arkham Sanatorium into a "safe" stronghold for Hydra.
From the very beginning, Schiller didn't want to pick up the wool of these agents, to put it bluntly, how much oil and water can these workers have? Even if you rely on selling the immortality factor, it is slow and troublesome.
Schiller chose to take a different path and opened up another industrial line.
The rivalry between Stark and Steve gradually became white-hot, and the two of them became more and more involuted, so the scale of this purge became larger and larger, and all the Hydras on the East and West Coasts were involved, and because this competition started so suddenly, most of them were unprepared.
This is not the same as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s kind of "investigation" that says one thing and does another, dealing with Hydra, Captain America and Iron Man are serious, so in just a few days, the snakeheads on the east and west coastlines have lost a lot of strength.
As one stronghold after another was breached, more and more snakeheads turned into a state of silence in order to protect themselves, and the more they turned into a state of silence, the more they could not organize a decent defensive offensive, so the losses became more and more.
This group of snakeheads themselves were silent, but they were not willing to let the descendants they had worked so hard to build be eradicated like this, if so, wouldn't they become lonely after they came out?
Again, the hydra infighting is professional, and they have to think about how to face their wolf-like colleagues after their silence is over, in case they really become the commander of the light pole, then they will only be eaten alive.
At this time, a rumor circulated among the top brass that Alexander Pierce, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and one of Hydra's most famous heads, left behind an equally experienced silent agent and an absolutely secret security base before entering silence.
The silent agent, codenamed "The Doctor", is most likely an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., but his identity is unknown, but there is no doubt that his preservation plan is quite effective.
And why the effect of this preservation plan is so immediate, we have to start with S.H.I.E.L.D.
Just after the important Hydra agents in S.H.I.E.L.D. were transferred, a major purge began in S.H.I.E.L.D., and those agents who did not participate in the preservation plan were directly purged.
Of course, this is a wave of cooperation between Nick and Schiller, after Schiller transferred those important Hydra agents, the rest are small fish and shrimp, Nick can find a reason to clean them up, the core Hydra members are gone, and they can't organize any decent defense and counterattack.
Although the surviving agent was taken to a sanatorium and locked up, the fact that he was not saved lost his life further illustrates the importance of the preservation plan and the experience and decisiveness of the silent agent codenamed Doctor.
After rumors of a safe stronghold spread, many of the Hydra snakeheads began to consider moving their descendants inside.
And Schiller will ask for money, which is completely beyond their expectations, Hydra is like this, if you don't fish at this time, when will you wait?
On the contrary, Schiller's style has increased the confidence of these snakeheads, if it weren't for the pure hydra, how could he be so skilled at taking advantage of people's danger and opening his mouth?
Just for his proficiency, Pierce has a good eye!
It's me, Hydra.
The snakeheads felt extremely cordial from Schiller's style, they didn't care about his high asking price, Hydra has been in business for so many years, this capital is still there, and it is very cost-effective for them to spend a little money to keep their lineage.
On the way to Arkham Sanatorium, 80% of the people were caught by S.H.I.E.L.D., and the remaining 20% made it to the sanatorium, but they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Now, the situation has reached this point, and it is already their fate to have 20% of them still alive.
But what they didn't know was that in the office of the director of Arkham Sanatorium, a certain benefactor of theirs was selling them to the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Seriously, I think you should find a way to get out, and in a few days, those two crazy people who are in the heat of the game should find out about you." Nick persuaded Schiller: "We all know that we are for the cause of justice, but those two people have been a little bit upset lately, and it would be bad if they accidentally hurt their own people......
Schiller was not in a hurry at all, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I already have a way." ”
"What's the solution?" Nick looked up at him.
At this moment, a portal appeared in the office, and Strange walked out of it, first looking up at the sky outside, then yawning, and sat down next to Schiller, Schiller asked, "Are you done?" ”
"That's right, the Supreme Mage has entrusted me with all the affairs of Kama Taj, and now I am a veritable Supreme Mage, with only one handover ceremony left."
"Congratulations, but I've heard you say before, and I've been worrying a lot lately, what's wrong?"
Speaking of this, Strange frowned, and said, "The mages think that Stark is too picky, and a dozen ships actually only give them one for research......"
"You know, those archmages are all research freaks, and a spaceship can't satisfy their appetite at all."
"There are also many schools of mages, some use white magic, some study summoning magic, and the idea of transformation is also different, some want to completely energize the ship, some want to use enchantment technology, recently I have prevented at least a dozen quarrels......"
"Anyway, at least 3 ships." Strange concluded, "Anything less than that would make it difficult for me to balance the mage's experimental needs. ”
"Like I told you on the phone before, anyway, you mages have portals, and if you sneak up and do some research, you shouldn't be discovered."
"That's exactly what I'm hesitating ......about," Strange said with a look of embarrassment, "I don't want to exacerbate the antagonism between ordinary humans and mages, we are the guardians of the earth, but we are not administrators, let alone rulers, and Stark will be very angry if we find out." ”
"Aren't you okay if you don't get found out by him? Could it be that the group of archmages are also used to not picking up the garbage after completing their research? ”
"Of course not, we're not like Stark's big guys, Kama Taj has maintained the virtue of frugality for many years, and our magic is environmentally friendly and pollution-free, not even scrap."
"Moreover, a special item left to me by the Supreme Mage, which can also reset the time ......"
Strange's eyes brightened as he spoke, and he said, "I can have the archmages go up and experiment and then restore the ship with gems, so that Stark can't find our ......."
So saying, he stood up and said to Schiller, "Yes, I have an idea. ”
Then he opened the portal, stepped one foot in, and before leaving, he did not forget to look back and say, "Thank you, thank you for your flexible thinking, and ...... Morality. ”
When Strange's figure disappeared completely, Nick looked at the place where he left and asked thoughtfully, "The scapegoat you were looking for?" ”
"Don't say that, there are so many doctors in this world, how can they be suspicious of Stephen's head?"
"Yes, no one could have suspected him, but if you instigated him to illegally occupy the spaceship under Stark's nose, then Stark would suspect anyone, needless to say......"
Schiller walked over with coffee, handed Nick a cup, then held up the cup and said, "If you don't say it, I don't say it, who knows he's inspired by me?" ”
Nick smiled and picked up the cup, and the two of them touched it lightly, then showed a tacit smile.
