Chapter 51: Baron Starak's Gauntlet
"Edward! Sandstorms and other things are still increasing! Hurry up! ”
"I'm on the verge of it! The car has stepped on the accelerator to the end! Edward looked at the GPS monitor in his car, and suddenly thought of something, Edward asked, "What about today's patrol?" What about Mr. Rhodes? ”
Under normal circumstances, Edward is a lone group that acts on his own, and on the other hand, Rhodes and they have to let the helicopter go out to fly a few laps every day to find someone, although everyone has not been found for so long, and everyone's mood is not high, but it still continues.
Edward's side has a similar schedule to the patrol, he has to go out during the day and afternoon, and if Edward is trapped here, I'm afraid something will happen on the other side.
Edward is running on the ground, as long as the wind is not strong enough for the car to blow away, you can leave, the helicopter directly relies on the engine to drive the rotor to provide lift, in this case, I am afraid that it will not be directly swept in?
There was silence over there, and Edward knew what was going on.
"Something is wrong with them?" Edward asked, "Do you need me to save them?" Edward looked at the growing storm and said to the beetle that the beetle had given him.
Of course, the main reason why Edward dared to say this directly was because the beetle had already scanned the helicopter's signal source five hundred meters ahead, and if it was far away, Edward would not risk his own life in such a deadly sandstorm.
As long as you don't take a detour, you will definitely be able to meet them, so you don't pick up the favor for nothing.
In the end, Rhodes confirmed the location of the signal source, made sure that Edward would not be affected, and agreed to Edward's action.
Anyway, by the way, Edward, if you don't make money, you won't make money, Edward let the beetle hide it by himself, and then drove in the direction of the return trip.
Along the way, there were all kinds of flying sand and rocks, and the road ahead was almost invisible, until he saw a huge black shadow blocking the way, and Edward communicated to make sure that they were his own people who survived the fall and hid in the helicopter to avoid the sand.
Edward honked his horn.
Immediately, four people made a gesture and ran out of the wreckage of the helicopter and entered the car directly with lightning speed.
Despite the fast movement, the windows were still crackling with flying sand and rocks, and the windows on the inside of the car were all crackled with potholes.
As soon as they all came in, they immediately closed the door and shouted.
"Well done! Ed! Rod sat in the passenger seat and exclaimed with joy.
"Thank you for your support, God if you don't come...... Open fast, open fast! There was a broken log that had been blown up and smashed over!! ”
Before he spoke, Edward had stepped on the accelerator and rushed out directly, and when he was about to accelerate, the trunk was smashed by the broken wood that had been buried for 1 year.
The broken wood was buried for hundreds of years, and the water was lost, so it was simply incomparable, and this broken wood was broken from the middle, leaving a tragic smash mark on the trunk of Edward's little red car.
By the time Edward rushed into the blockade, the sandstorm outside was bigger, and inside the blockade was slightly smaller due to some buildings.
The group did not run far, so they stayed at the outpost on this side of the blockade line to hide, and Edward also entered the outpost because he saved four people.
This made Edward feel a pity, he wanted to go back to the working code, but it was left behind......
Rhodes and the rescued people thanked Edward one by one, but Edward took the opportunity to show his acting skills, and he looked out the window with a worried face, "If Mr. Stark is still outside at this time......
Then the atmosphere became cold.
Edward was finally able to get his time, and he was sitting by the window, staring at it with a serious face, to see who would run out.
Everyone thought he was waiting for Stark, and they sighed for it.
Only the beetles who stayed in the car and hid knew that Edward was calculating the probability of being killed by a full adult at this time, and whether the people here could hold it if they were fully equipped and full of adults to kill him.
Half a day later, the unusual sandstorm slowly fell, and when it ended, it was the same as it began, without warning, and suddenly stopped.
Through communication, Rhodes confirmed the situation of various departments several times.
Before the appearance of the sandstorm, when the weather was still very clear, there was no sign of any sandstorm or sandstorm today, not at all, and none of the departments detected the signs of a sandstorm today.
Weirdly unreasonable.
Rhodes: They were lucky enough to meet Edward and be brought back.
Stark Industries and Wayne Group were much less lucky, waiting for the sandstorm to stop for half an hour before they came out in disgrace.
The convoy was almost completely wiped out, except for two cars that ran back, and the shape was exaggerated, the kind of people who were thrown at the garbage dump and no one picked it up.
"The convoy was trapped in the middle of the desert, and some people wanted to go out for help, but these people were blown up, and when they went out, they were gone, and then the wind became stronger and stronger, and some cars were blown up, and quicksand rose on the ground, and some people got stuck in it, and only we ran out."
Rod had a black face, well, his face was already black.
Rod's expression didn't look very good, he was almost killed by this sudden sandstorm, and it also caused the rescue team to have casualties of this specification, Rod was in a very low mood, and asked all departments to test themselves again in an unwilling tone to see if they could find any clues.
The two rescue teams themselves deliberately evacuated because of several shootouts, and now there are such inexplicable casualties, and the rescue teams of the two companies can't hold it at all.
Yesterday, they were protesting with great enthusiasm to narrow the search area in order to raise the price, but today they were sent home without saying a word, and the plane that took them back to New York flew tomorrow morning.
Rod looked at Edward, who also had a bad face, and patted him on the shoulder, "Thanks to you, don't worry too much, go back and rest early, and you will go back with them tomorrow." ”
"I'm not going back!" Edward hurriedly said, "There are already people who have withdrawn, there are fewer people searching, I am leaving, and there is even less hope for Mr. Stark to leave!" ”
"Edward, you see danger here."
"It was just an accident, it was just that the machine was malfunctioning and it wasn't detected!"
Edward also had a plan: if he didn't take the opportunity to go back, he would come back in a month, and wait for Stark to run away and save people.
But after thinking about it and giving up this plan, the working environment here is indeed much more comfortable than that in New York.
In a week here, the completion efficiency has skyrocketed, originally 3% a week, but now it has been completed 9% a week, and if you go back at this time, you will have to be stared at by S.H.I.E.L.D., and the progress will have to be delayed.
Moreover, this time the preparation was indeed insufficient, and now that he knows that Lord Man is there, if Lord Man really comes out, Edward doesn't mind stopping at the time of opening and taking the ring with the Iron Fist of Justice.
Edward had his own considerations, and finally argued again, and Rod didn't say anything more, the rescue team had to be busy with heavy casualties on his side, Harpy's side, and even Wayne's side.
They reorganized the manpower to come over again, not to mention organizing a rescue team to rescue the rescue team, but also had to have people debug the machine and figure out the reason for the sudden appearance of the sandstorm, so they really didn't have time to entangle with Edward for too long.
Edward stayed, but Rhodes changed his itinerary for the next few days, and he didn't plan to let him go out for the next few days, after all, everyone had to guard against the sudden sandstorm.
Edward also symbolically expressed his protest, although the beetle had already recorded the energy index, and if it appeared again, Edward would be able to run away in advance.
It is possible to go, but it is not necessary.
Edward's protest showed that he was eager to save himself, and turned around and went about his own business.
——
Western Europe, the secret base of Hydra.
In the test site, the dark blue energy laser beam is constantly emitted, and a group of staff members communicate with each other in groups to record and debug the energy output power.
Standing behind all the staff, a one-eyed, bald-headed, black-clad man watched all of this silently, he was the owner of the base, Baron Straker.
"Sir, word has come from S.H.I.E.L.D. that Dupont has disappeared after a rash attack attempt despite orders."
"Hmph, those rubbish in the Aegis branch can make DuPont act without permission under their noses, and Lao Zemo is also confused, and he really believes in such a guy." Baron Starak snorted coldly.
The people who reported in front of him didn't dare to answer, just stared at the document in their hands: Far Star Project (attached) - Magic Portal.
"Leave him alone, if the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch can't even deal with it, there will be no need for it to exist, magic portal, heh, I didn't agree to this plan at the beginning, they insisted on going their own way, do you want me to deal with the aftermath if something happens? The project on the Magic Portal was put on hold, and the relevant staff was deployed to analyze the mutant genes. ”
"By the way, how's my gauntlet developed?"
