Chapter 148 Under the Castle
The roar of the engine was getting closer to where the two were. Barton buried his head lower, put on a white hood, and tried to cover his figure in the snow as much as possible.

A motorcycle is driving ahead to clear the way, and behind the motorcycle are two heavily armed jeeps. On the top of the vehicle is a sci-fi wind cannon tube emitting blue light.Behind the jeep is a giant truck, towing the container, escorted by a total of four jeeps in the center.At the end of the convoy were two eccentric motorcycles. In addition to the driver, there was also a soldier holding a gun sitting on the side-mounted seat beside the vehicle, patrolling the surrounding environment.

After the convoy had left for quite a distance, Button raised his head from the snowdrift, looked at the convoy that was about to disappear from his field of vision, and was just about to speak to Chris who was beside him, when he saw Chris' expression of disappointment.

"What's the matter? What happened?" he asked.

Chris shook his head: "Hydera's fleet has not only switched to containers, but they have also taken precautions. My youth is over." Chris was an old cleaner when he opened his mouth.

"Hydra?!" Barton had heard of the name, "Haven't they been destroyed? Wait, you know the situation of this castle."

"Well, I don't know much, but I know a little bit."

"But the records show that SHIELD knows nothing about this castle, and no one has ever been to this castle that doesn't exist on the map. How do you know?"

Chris did not answer Button's words directly, but under his surprised eyes, he took out a long baguette from the kraft paper bag and carried it on his shoulder: "Sometimes you don't have to go there yourself to know something. , and things like intelligence are only auxiliary, don't rely on it completely."

"Since you know this is Hydera's territory, why didn't you tell the chief?"

"It's not that you don't know Nick's character. He always has doubts and distrust of everyone, and he always keeps a hand for himself."

Barton agreed with Chris: "It is true, but I still think I should call the director, or at least send a message."

"That kind of thing is not important, and you can't convince Nick. Why don't we go to the castle to find some evidence first, and then report the results to Nick."

The two walked together among the trees, heading in the direction the convoy was going away.

Along the way, every patrolling sentinel and hidden sentry in ambush was dealt with by Barton, and then Chris was responsible for disposing of the corpse so that other patrolling people would not see it.The two walked and walked to the edge of the woods.

Spreading the branches that blocked the view with fingers, the white snow accumulated on the branches fell on the two of them. Chris and Barton looked at the fortress that appeared in front of them at this moment, located between the hills and canyons.

Taking out his personal terminal, Barton compared the similarity between the informant's information and the castle in front of him. Except for the slight deviation caused by the angle problem, both the general appearance and the details are completely consistent.

In Barton's heat-sensing goggles, a red figure became clearer as the two approached.

"There are too many people here. What do they think of this place as a tourist attraction?" Chris was carrying a spear-like baguette.When Barton heard him say this, he really wanted to ask him, did you take this as an outing?
"This place does not exist on any map or satellite image at all, unless they have the ability to hack into the satellite just to modify the map, otherwise, I think they should have some means of covering themselves." Barton took out two additional Pistol with silencer.

Although the castle was right in front of the two of them, and the way to the castle was very clear, Chris and Barton couldn't just walk up there, they had to think of other ways.

Either distract the guard, kill the guard, or sneak in from where no one is noticing, leaving only three options for the two of them.

Although it is a slightly medieval-style castle, it does not leave a wide-ranging entrance for people to sneak in like the enemy buildings in "Assassin's Creed".Almost everywhere they can pass, they have arranged guards and sentries. Once suspicious persons are found, they will sound to remind others to be alert.

"The defense seems to be very tight." Barton raised his goggles and put them on his forehead. "Unlike the previous road, it seems difficult for us to sneak in from here."

"So what do you think, should you retreat here or continue to sneak in? No matter which one you choose, I don't care." Although Chris is a special advisor and one of the tenth-level authority holders, Barton is only a seventh-level agent.But in this mission, Patton is the commander-in-chief, and his orders are given priority in the mission.

Barton hesitated a little when he heard what Chris said.After thinking for a while, he asked, "Can you be sure that this is Hydera's base?"

"I can't say it's [-]%, at least it's [-]% sure." Chris put his hands on the snow and grabbed a ball of snowballs.

Barton gritted his teeth: "Then we will continue to sneak in. If we retreat here, who knows what will happen next time we come back."

The goal of this mission is first to confirm whether the information provided by the informant is true.The castle that doesn't appear on the map does exist in this valley in Sokovia.

The second goal is to test the information inside the castle, including but not limited to the number of people, patrol arrangements, the purpose of staying here, who the leader is, and so on.This information is beneficial to the progress of follow-up work.

The third goal is to confirm the status of the spy informant who has not been heard from since sending the last message.Whether he survived, whether his identity was exposed, whether he was tortured, and so on.These are extremely critical. If the spy betrayed part of the information because he couldn't bear the torture, then Barton needs to find out what information he betrayed, and whether it will affect the lives of other agents.

The fourth goal is to annihilate the garrison forces in the castle, destroy the planned goals of the mysterious organization, and so on.Generally speaking, this task will be assigned to the next operation. After the intelligence spy brings back the basic information, the S.H.I.E.L.D. troops will be dispatched to solve the target.

Barton has already completed the first mission at this time, and even if he goes back now, he can be regarded as having completed the mission.But he didn't want to leave just because he was strong. The third and fourth goals were a bit reluctant, and he needed to go deep into the castle, but the second goal could be considered.

Moreover, if they leave here, the patrolling soldiers will inevitably find the soldiers they killed in order to approach the castle before when they change their guards. That would be a warning, and the next time they come back, it is very likely that there will be no people left.
