The knight passing by Marvel

Chapter 799 A Desperate Strike

The night was like black ink, white and flawless snowflakes fell from the heavy clouds like lead blocks, fluttered with the north wind, and finally fell on the frozen Potomac River. The blizzard lasted for several hours, covering the thick ice surface. Layers of snow up to seven or eight centimeters deep.

The north wind is howling, the snow is ravaging the wind, the sky and the earth are one color, everything is white, and almost no other colors can be seen. The magnificent Trident Building, in this heavy snow, looks extraordinarily small, and it cannot be seen from a little distance. to this iconic building.

Similarly, even if you stand on the top of a building hundreds of meters high, you can only see the snowflakes reflected by the searchlights, and the city lights in the distance are blocked by the snowflakes flying in the sky, so that Alexander Pierce can no longer appreciate the beauty of the US emperor. The lights of the White House, the center of power.

It was already four o'clock in the morning, and everything was silent, but Alexander Pierce didn't feel sleepy at all. He stood by the window with a gloomy face, staring blankly at the snow falling outside the window. The thick special glass cut off the biting cold wind , The warm air from the air conditioner made the room feel like spring, but it couldn't make Alexander Pierce feel any warmth.

He had just finished a video conference, the ninth in a week, where senior Hydra cadres gathered to discuss how to deal with the crisis and find out who was still hiding in the dark.

Like the past few meetings, there was only a calm discussion at the beginning, and then there were fierce quarrels. The public said that the public was right, and the mother-in-law said that the woman was right. The old men who were over half a century old were arguing because their faces were red and their necks were thick. The doctor greeted each other crazily.

The root cause is that the leaks were found internally. The leak of Zola's algorithm, Coulson's sudden transfer, and Nick Fury's undeleted permissions all made veteran agents have to suspect that something went wrong inside.

If it is said that the previous S.H.I.E.L.D. data leaks may have been done by Stark; the leaks of Helicarrier data and insight plans may have been done by former S.H.I.E.L.D. agents like Coulson or Hill; then the Zola algorithm is like this If the confidential information leaked in such detail, it is necessary to suspect whether there is an internal problem.

This is an extremely serious matter. If Hydra really appeared as an inner ghost, when did it appear?Whose offline is he?How much information was revealed?
Not to mention anything else, just proving to the world that Hydra is still 'alive' is enough to cause Hydra a lot of trouble, and now all kinds of evidence show that the existence of Hydra is probably either a secret or not. It is known whether it is the Avengers or Coulson.

Hydra must be prepared for the worst. Alexander Pierce has already begun to implement it, allowing Hydra agents who have not been exposed to continue to lurk. The standard of exposure is that they have not been transferred to the Trident headquarters or promoted to key positions.

There is also an internal screening of Hydra's secret base, which is unprecedentedly strict. Such a large-scale operation has caused many experiments and operations to be suspended or even cancelled. quarrel.

Alexander Pierce is not as relaxed as they are, because he is on the bright side, and his people are most involved with S.H.I.E.L.D. 99% of personnel lost.

A bad old man with no subordinates and no power, under the strict hierarchy, who will take you seriously? For this, you can refer to Baron Sterak. After his base was demolished by Kamen Rider and Hella, now Sitting in a wheelchair under the fence, Pierce donated a central base to continue his experiment.

This is because Pierce gave him a base after seeing his achievements, otherwise he would not care about him at all, and this is the end of Pierce after losing power, from a high-ranking big man to a worthless little man.

Of course, Hydra will arrange a nursing home with a beautiful environment to live in, with no worries about food and clothing, provided that Hydra can always exist.But losing power, for these big shots, it is better to kill them directly.

Alexander Pierce didn't want to fail, and tried his best to find out the leaker, stop him from talking nonsense, although the current situation is still bad, but it can be dealt with, and time can dilute everything.

But what worries him is that he has not been able to find any clues until now. It is easy to find a person in the vast network, but it is also easy to hide, depending on your skill level, and Stark happens to be a A master of technology.

According to Hydra's style, if there is suspicion, it can be eliminated, but the problem is that it is Iron Man, and the identity of a billionaire is not his umbrella, but Iron Man's suit, and the Avengers. There is no normal person there. People, Hydra's best assassination, are a joke in front of them.

As for sending special teams, one or two of them would simply deliver food, and even if all the special teams from S.H.I.E.L.D. rushed up, they would be killed completely.

As for the use of large-scale destructive weapons, Pierce might fight in desperation if he were to switch to a deep mountain and old forest, but that was Manhattan. Back then, he hated making troubles in Chinatown, and warships did not dare to launch missiles when they were in the open sea.

General Ross used armed helicopters and infantry armored vehicles, and ended up in a court-martial. If Hydra hadn't taken action, he would have been in prison for a few years, so how could he be promoted and raise his salary.

What's more, launching missiles may not be effective. The Chitauri invasion battle and the nuclear bomb fired at Manhattan disappeared without a trace under the eyes of everyone. So far, I don't know how Kamen Rider did it.

"What should I do?" Alexander Pierce was at a loss like never before. After being an agent for decades, it was the first time he encountered such a helpless situation. , who can kill a person with a gun, one bullet.

But in that building, there are all monsters. One can’t be killed by a nuclear bomb, the other can make the nuclear bomb disappear, and the other gives him materials. He can make nuclear bombs by hand, which makes Alexander Pierce Alexander, What can he do, he is also very desperate.

"Avengers, Avengers." Alexander Pierce tried to clench his fists hard, but twenty hours without a break left him exhausted and weak, with a dull ache in his head, which didn't bode well for an old man.

But the violent snowstorm outside made him unable to lie down and fall asleep peacefully. Those idiots still felt that they were in control, but Alexander Pierce vaguely felt that a bigger storm was yet to come. He must not sit still and do something, even if it was absolutely Take a chance.
