Chapter 248: Dr. Helen Zhao

Sokovia, Hydra base.

Baron Straker sat in front of the large screen in the main control room, on which countless streams of numbers formed a human face.

"Hello, Dr. Zola." Baron Straker touched his bald head and greeted the face.

"Hello, Mr. Straker," Dr. Zola's voice seemed to come from some broken electron generator, "maybe I'll call you boss in the future?" ”

"You are the patriarch of Hydra, how dare I make you my subordinate?" Baron Straker smiled, "But with all due respect, it wasn't a wise move for you to choose Project Insight, and to support that fool as Alexander Pearce. You see, aren't they failing now? ”

"It was indeed a miscalculation on my part." Dr. Zora said.

It is not the real Dr. Zola, who was diagnosed with a terminal illness in 1972 and migrated his consciousness to a giant computer of the same era, which can only be regarded as an artificial intelligence with Zola's personality, so it does not have a real concept of self-esteem, it is just a simulation of data, and can admit mistakes without hesitation when necessary.

"I promise this is your last mistake, and it will be one of the wisest decisions of your life to get rid of Pierce's idiots and work with us," Baron Straker smiled, "The team that went to retrieve your core storage has arrived, please be prepared, they are sending you here." ”

……

Tony's home, underground laboratory.

"Can you just turn off the anti-gravity engine?" Hill looked at Tony.

"Actually, it's off now," Tony shrugged, "but don't worry, when I asked Jarvis to turn off the engine, the engine wasn't fully started, and the Helicarrier should be preparing for liftoff, and it hasn't left the ground yet, so don't worry about crashing, if it goes well, it will still be usable after recovery." ”

Hill was silent.

What's the use of recycling? The engine switch of his own space carrier is held in someone else's hand, who would dare to use this thing?

"Sir, the artificial intelligence that interfered with me in S.H.I.E.L.D. has changed its strategy, it is deleting all the files in S.H.I.E.L.D., and I am backing it up as much as possible." Jarvis said.

"Can you trace it back?" Tony asked casually.

He didn't have much hope, after all, everyone is artificial intelligence, although the other party is definitely not as good as Jarvis, but Jarvis should not have a crushing advantage.

But what he didn't expect was that Jarvis enlarged the map of New Jersey in the corner: "Sir, the other party's IP seems to be the address marked by Director Fury." ”

"Are you sure?" Tony asked.

"It's not 100 percent sure, but the suspicion of this location is high." Jarvis said.

"Let's take a look." Tony looked at Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei nodded.

As Tony's mind moved, the signal of the "snake" was linked to the steel suit, and the parts of the steel suit flew in as if consciously, automatically assembling and forming on Tony's body.

While wearing the steel suit, Tony looked at Steve: "Captain, remember to help me keep an eye on the two ladies, they seem to be very interested in the technology here, don't let them touch around, otherwise it may trigger Jarvis's security system." ”

"Can't Jarvis tell the difference?" Steve asked.

"Yes, but it's better to have a double insurance," Lu Mingfei walked to the dressing table and put on his steel suit with the help of Jarvis's robotic arm, "The non-lethal security weapons in Tony's lab are anesthetics and laxatives, if they are touched by mistake...... Trust me, Captain, you don't want to see that. ”

Steve shuddered.

Natasha and Ciel subconsciously glanced around, their hands clasped to their sides.

Moments later, Lu Mingfei and Tony donned their steel suits, took off from the lift, and flew towards New Jersey.

……

Ten minutes later.

Two steel suits flew side by side in the air.

Although he could control the flight of the warframe with the authority of manipulating metal, the flight speed of the warframe itself was fast enough, and Lu Mingfei did not need to expend any more energy.

"Sir, there is a special circumstance, the artificial intelligence I fought against suddenly disappeared two seconds ago, and a lot of information in S.H.I.E.L.D. was deleted, but from the rest of the information, I found something not very good," Jarvis said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. has indeed been infiltrated, to be precise, they have been infiltrated by an organization called 'Hydra' since their early days. ”

"What?" Tony was stunned.

Although he had known that S.H.I.E.L.D. had been infiltrated for a long time, he really didn't expect that S.H.I.E.L.D. had been infiltrated at the beginning of its establishment.

"How is that possible!" Hill's voice rang out from the communication channel.

Because Tony had specially ordered it before, Jarvis did not avoid the three Hills in the laboratory when he spoke.

"According to the information I found, after the end of World War II, S.H.I.E.L.D. was officially created, and in the early days of its establishment, S.H.I.E.L.D. drew a large number of scientific and technological talents from the disbanded Hydra to form a new team, and since then, the power of Hydra has grown in the nascent S.H.I.E.L.D.," Jarvis explained, "In 1974, a man named Dr. Zora appeared and developed a lot of plans for Hydra in S.H.I.E.L.D. and helped them grow further, including the 'Insight' Project. ”

"However, according to what I know, the real Dr. Zora is a scientist of Hydra during World War II, who died of a terminal illness in 1972, and the 'Dr. Zola' who developed the insight plan for Hydra is likely to just borrow the identity of Dr. Zola, and his real identity cannot be found in Hydra's information, and all his appearance records are on the Internet, and he has never appeared in reality." Jarvis explained.

"Who absorbed those remnants of Hydra into S.H.I.E.L.D.? Something wrong with your brain, right? Tony couldn't help but complain, "It's strange that a large number of talents from a newly destroyed organization have been absorbed into a new organization, and they won't be reborn through the backdoor, right?" Is the human brain that makes decisions glossy? ”

"Tony, are you sure you want to just scold?" Lu Mingfei reminded, "What if your father is among the people who make the decision?" He seems to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. veteran too, right? ”

"He can't do such a stupid thing." Tony didn't hesitate.

"Then again, if an organization is founded with another force, can it still be called infiltration?" Lu Mingfei said curiously, "Would it be more appropriate to say that it would be a little more appropriate." ”

Natasha and Ciel, who were also in the communication channel, fell silent at the same time.

"People still bring money into the group," Tony complained, "Those Hydra scientists who were absorbed into S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't contribute much in the early days of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s development, right?" ”

Hill:......

……

New Jersey, in front of a secret S.H.I.E.L.D. facility.

Lu Mingfei and Tony landed slowly.

Judging from the information in the memory, this is a secret base of S.H.I.E.L.D., disguised as a long-abandoned military training area, and a building shaped like a small warehouse is the entrance.

"We're late." Tony looked at the warehouse doorway.

The door to the warehouse, though rusty, had a few fresh scratches, and there were signs of scratches on the ground below, and rust had fallen from the corners of the door shafts, proving that someone had opened the door not long ago.

"Stark, Mingfei, turn on the camera," Natasha said, "This is a secret S.H.I.E.L.D. base, and Hill and I might be able to find some clues." ”

Tony and Lu Mingfei turned on the camera, opened the door of the warehouse and walked in, the eyes of the steel suit mask emitted tens of thousands of lumens of bright light, illuminating the inside.

The warehouse-like appearance is just a camouflage, and Lu Mingfei and Tony, under the guidance of Hill and Natasha, walk through a dark passage, and enter a huge underground space, countless large equipment standing and sitting neatly, the server fan is still turning, and the wind is howling.

"It's a machine room," Tony walked through the monumental equipment to the console in the center and checked it, "but the most important storage part was taken, about the size of half a car, probably hoisted by helicopter, maybe we can find it from Hydra when we go to S.H.I.E.L.D." ”

Tony bites the words "S.H.I.E.L.D." and "Hydra" hard, and Natasha and Ciel only feel as if they have been stabbed in the heart.

"It is estimated that when Jarvis found out that the other party had disappeared, someone came in and transferred this artificial intelligence away," Lu Mingfei said with emotion, "Hydra's efficiency is much stronger than that of S.H.I.E.L.D." ”

Natasha and Ciel felt like they had been stabbed in the heart again.

"The good news is that they've only taken the most core part of the storage," says Tony, "and there's a lot of memory that hasn't been taken away, and while it's definitely been deleted, most of it should be able to be restored by technical means." ”

"It doesn't make sense, the people of Hydra have been here, why don't you blow up this place by the way and send us the information for nothing?" Lu Mingfei was puzzled.

"I think I can answer that," Jarvis's voice suddenly sounded, and at the same time, a small window opened in the helmets of Lu Mingfei and Tony, showing several missiles in flight, "Sir, there are three Tomahawk cruise missiles flying towards you, the goal should be to destroy the engine room with you, please retreat immediately." ”

Tony opened the mask and looked at Lu Mingfei: "This shouldn't be your first crow's mouth, right?" ”

Lu Mingfei opened the mask and looked innocent.

"Do you have time to argue? Run! Natasha, who was connected to the video, couldn't help but cover her face and shout when she saw this picture like cross talk.

"If you run away, won't the data in the computer room be gone?" Lu Mingfei walked out of the warehouse door and looked up at the corner of the skyβ€”there were three slender white lines approaching, the trajectory of the missile, which was broadcast live to the three people in the underground laboratory through the camera.

Tony stood behind Lu Mingfei: "Do you have a way to deal with those missiles?" ”

"Sort of, I just have a new ability I want to try." The battle armor opened, and Lu Mingfei walked out of it, raising his hand to summon the sword of silver mistletoe.

"Don't tell me that your solution is to perform live to cut missiles." Tony complained.

As he spoke, the missile, which was still indistinct in mid-air, had come very close and fell downward.

Lu Mingfei held the sword of silver mistletoe in one hand and raised the other, and the realm belonging to the King of Bronze and Fire unfolded from his body in an incomparably majestic posture, and the "spirits" that escaped from the realm loomed behind his body to form a throne full of swords.

Three Tomahawk missiles fell from the sky, and if they exploded, they would probably recreate the myth of God destroying the city with fire in the Bible, but as Lu Mingfei opened his palm, their speed was visibly attenuated to the naked eye, as if they had fallen into a transparent swamp, instantly losing their kinetic energy, hovering in mid-air, like a craft frozen in glass.

"Wow...... Tony couldn't help but look at Lu Mingfei, "You used the same ability to control metal before." ”

He was referring to Sword Emperor, but he didn't expect Lu Mingfei to shake his head: "It's a little different, this is another one, you can understand it as an upgraded version." ”

"I'm glad you're not a super criminal, otherwise I don't know what S.H.I.E.L.D. will have to do to subdue you." Hill sighed.

She, Natasha, and Steve witnessed the scene through Tony's camera, just like him.

"S.H.I.E.L.D., I suggest you change your name to Snake Shield." Lu Mingfei complained.

Without waiting for Natasha and Ciel to answer, something suddenly flickered on the missile that was frozen in mid-air, and then suddenly exploded, and the fire bloomed like a flower in mid-air.

As the flames of the explosion fell from the camera's vantage point, larger and more dazzling than the sun, Natasha and Ciel couldn't help but breathe.

But the fire only bloomed for a moment, and then it froze in mid-air like the previous missile.

Lu Mingfei's open palm slowly closed, and the firelight in the sky, which seemed to be bigger than the sun, shrank and closed inward, because of the sharp change of light and flame, the surrounding shadows churned and trembled, Lu Mingfei stood still in the changing light and shadow, the silver mistletoe sword in his hand reflected the flames, and part of the wind pressure of the explosion leaked, blowing his hair and clothes.

Hill looked at Lu Mingfei's back in the video screen in a daze, and the corners of his eyes jumped.

"If you watch too much, you get used to it." Natasha calmly patted her on the shoulder.

In just a few seconds, the explosion of the three missiles was compressed and solidified by Lu Mingfei into a fireball with a diameter of more than ten meters, like a miniature sun, which was wrapped in a sea of fire and molten metal.

Although it is impossible to detect the source of these missiles, Lu Mingfei can still give them a very practical order - return the same way.

As the edict was given, the fireball shot into the sky and flew back along the same path.

……

Tony's underground lab.

"It's not impossible to improve Professor Connors's potion, but his potion is indeed a bit technical, and it takes time and cumbersome to transform it into a completely side-effect-free potion." Tony frowned.

"What then? Only when the director wakes up can we eliminate S.H.I.E.L.D., Natasha and I have too low permissions and information, and we are now estimated to have been blacklisted by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s internal system. Hill frowned.

"If you just want Fury to be repaired immediately after thawing, you don't have to use potions, right?" "I was reminded of a friend in South Korea whose new technology should help." ”

"Then get in touch." Natasha said.

"I'll have to go to her lab," Tony said, "I don't want to move, so you'll send Fury to Korea for me." ”

"Okay." Lu Mingfei sighed - although reluctantly, he had to go with him, otherwise it would be difficult for Fury to thaw.

Tony nodded and took out his phone: "Hey, is it Dr. Helen Zhao?" Yes, I'm Tony, I need your help with something, do you have time......"

After a few moments, Tony put down his phone: "That's it, you guys just go over." ”

Lu Mingfei nodded, but he didn't know why, he always felt that Tony looked at him strangely after the call.

"Tony, is there anything on my face?" Lu Ming was puzzled.

"No," Tony shook his head, looking Lu Mingfei up and down, "It's just that Zhao Hailun just said on the phone that she wanted to see you." ”

"See me? We don't know each other, do we? Lu Ming was puzzled.

"Then who knows?" Tony smiled mysteriously.

……

Sokovia, Hydra Division.

"One of our military bases was destroyed, the one that fired missiles into New Jersey, and it was destroyed by an unidentified explosion......," a man dressed as a noncommissioned officer reported to Straker with trepidation.

"Don't bother me, you didn't see that I was entertaining distinguished guests......" Straker waved his hand impatiently, and then his eyes widened sharply, and he turned his head to look at his subordinates, "What? A military base is gone? ”

"Yes...... Yes. The non-commissioned officer shuddered.

"Rubbish! How do you do things? We only have five military bases, which ...... Stellker furious.

A green paw rested on his shoulder: "Don't be angry, when our new weapons are finished, the military base will be worthless." ”

Professor Lizard looked down at Straker, his vertical pupils glowing with a cold light.

"Oh yes, I almost forgot about you," Straker instantly put on a smiling face, "The Mr. Killian you're looking for, we've been in touch, and he's agreed to provide the Desperate Virus to work with us, and the new Super Deadpool will be please." ”

"Of course," Professor Lizard smiled horribly, "with my skills and the Desperate Virus, I will be able to create the strongest Deadpool and create the most perfect evolutionary path." ”

Of course, I am the only one who can embark on this perfect evolutionary path in the end. The lizard professor said in his heart.

"Of course, of course." Straker smiled back.

When Super Deadpool succeeds in research, take out you arrogant reptile. Straker said to himself.
