Chapter 381: Small Town Horror
Greer's words made Stark raise his eyebrows, and he didn't say anything, the military had hunted down Hulk more than once before, often tanks, gunships, Poughkeepsie was really a small scene compared to this, it was nothing at all.
On the previous few occasions, S.H.I.E.L.D. did not say anything, but only eliminated the impact afterwards, but this time it took positive action, not only restoring the truth, but also guiding the direction of public opinion, and completed the reversal overnight, and did not hesitate to fight the military for this reason.
The difference is that there are Iron Man and Kamen Rider in the Poughkeepsie incident, but in Stark's opinion, the action of S.H.I.E.L.D. should be because Kamen Rider is also involved, and decades ago, Kamen Rider who once drove a train flying in the air and fought with countless aliens...
It can be seen from this that S.H.I.E.L.D. attaches great importance to Kamen Riders, and does not give the military any face, but it is somewhat unexpected by Stark, what happened in the nineties of the last century, was tightly sealed, and no rumors were leaked.
Even Stark didn't find out what happened at the time, but judging from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s actions this time, Kamen Rider's brain movement is definitely very big, but I don't know if that person is Greel, judging from the information currently available, it shouldn't be, it is likely that Grell inherited power from the previous generation of Kamen Rider.
However, these are just Stark's speculations, there is no evidence to support his ideas, he has always been buried deep in his heart, never said it to anyone, just silently observed and collected relevant information, trying to figure out what had happened.
While Stark was in a state of flux, Grell said to Dr. Banner, "Doctor, do you want to think about suing the military for workers' compensation?" I see that there are many lawyers on the Internet who are willing to represent you in this lawsuit for free. ”
"Sue the Pentagon?"
"Why not?" Stark walked to the sofa in his pajamas, and the large living room as spacious as a basketball court was surrounded by a glass curtain wall that became transparent, allowing the sunlight and seaside scenery outside to shine through the special glass.
Without waiting for Banner to speak, Grell continued: "That experimental accident has caused a great image of your life, how many things have been lost, so many years of hiding in Tibet, and being hunted down by the army, shouldn't you ask your employer for losses?" ”
Stark said with a smile, "At least until the public forgets about it, the military will not blatantly trouble you." ”
Dr. Banner smiled bitterly, shrugged his shoulders, and said helplessly, "Then do as you say, I hope it will be clear for a while." ”
Stark snapped his fingers, stood up, stretched, and walked to the bathroom, saying as he walked: "I will inform the team of lawyers of Stark Industries, everything will be left to the professionals, breakfast will be here soon, Jarvis has located Killian's position, there is something to do." ”
The six huge engines of the Airbus, which had been parked overnight, started and spewed out violent air currents, which made the huge Airbus slowly begin to rise, and after rising to a certain height, the jet engine turned and pushed the Airbus forward at a very fast speed.
Inside the cabin of the Airbus, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers gathered to look at the red dot on the large screen representing Killian's location, which is the location of the locked Killian according to the source of the AIM communications satellite. The S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters attaches great importance to this matter, and according to the instructions of Deputy Director Hill, Captain America will lead the most elite special operations team of S.H.I.E.L.D. to participate in this operation together, and it is imperative to be foolproof.
After all, it was against a billionaire, and his company was currently the army's largest arms supplier, and if there was not enough evidence to prove that AIM's Killian was indeed the perpetrator of the terrorist attack, the military would definitely think that S.H.I.E.L.D. was targeting them.
Soon the airbus arrived near Rose Mountain in Tennessee and landed in a hidden place, where the special operations team led by Captain America had already arrived, greeted each other and immediately drove to Killian's location.
A military off-road vehicle rushed to the long-abandoned town not far away, but until the five cars entered the dilapidated town, there was nothing unusual, the town was quiet, quiet and terrifying.
Captain America held his shield and stood on a hill near the town, looking at the special operators who jumped out of the car and dispersed, ready to search the dilapidated town, turned his head and said to Coulson, who was holding a telescope next to him, "Is the information accurate?" But there was no sign of human activity here. ”
When Coulson heard this, he put down the binoculars and turned his head to look at Stark, who was wearing a helmet and opened it next to him, Stark said without looking back: "Jarvis made a judgment based on S.H.I.E.L.D. intelligence, and if it goes wrong, it's also a mistake with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s intelligence." ”
"Where did you get the S.H.I.E.L.D. information..."Before Coulson finished speaking, he thought of Stark's forcible hacking into the Airbus system yesterday, obviously Stark hacked in and didn't leave, which made Coulson frown very unhappily, and immediately decided to go back, to check the entire system properly, and never ......
'Boom! ’
A crack explosion resounded in the sky, shaking the ground under Coulson's feet, and they saw a flaming mushroom cloud rise in the center of the town, soaring into the sky, and the shockwave generated spread out, and the town's houses collapsed and shattered one after another like papier-mâché, and there was not even a single brick and tile left.
The dust that blew up rushed all around, and the sky and the earth were filled with dust, and a large gray patch swallowed the town in one fell swoop, and it was no longer possible to see what was going on inside.
Captain America immediately pressed the headset and loudly contacted the special operators who entered the town, but he shouted more than a dozen names, and there was only 'sand!' in the headset. Sand! There was no response, Coulson ignored the dust rushing in front of him, hurriedly picked up the binoculars, and looked at the town, but the dust in front of him was so thick that he couldn't even see the bright pillar of flames rising clearly, let alone what was going on inside.
Stark immediately closed his helmet the moment the explosion occurred, wrapped himself tightly, used the detector of the steel suit to observe the town, collected the data of the explosion, and when Captain America shouted loudly to the special operators, he turned his head and said: "Don't bother, such a strong explosion, the shock wave is enough to shock people to death." ”
"Who gave the information?" Captain America said angrily, his fists clattered, this was obviously a trap, or a trap for them, otherwise, who would have been fine to plant so many explosives in such a broken town.
While Stark and the others were discussing, Greer, who was standing farther away from the town, watched the explosion, but frowned slightly, and Daisy next to him noticed it and couldn't help asking, "Did you find anything?" ”
Grell nodded, glanced around, stretched out his right arm to wrap his arms around Daisy, and whispered in her ear, "I've seen many times when desperate soldiers blew themselves up, and that's not what happened after the explosion. ”
"You mean..."
Grell shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just feel that something is wrong, why would Killian know that the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. are coming to arrest him, and Mr. Stark said that the information was obtained by eavesdropping on S.H.I.E.L.D., AND THAT THE ARM THAT PRODUCES WEAPONS can use false information to deceive the professional intelligence agency S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Do you think it's possible? ”
Daisy immediately shook her head, this is simply saying that Fu Tukang produced a better car than Mercedes, it is simply impossible, obviously there is a force behind the scenes, and all of a sudden abolition of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s elite mobile force-special combat team.
But Grell was thinking in another direction, I remember that the movie "Winter Soldier" told that the S.H.I.E.L.D. special operations team was actually Hydra's people, and they made great contributions to Hydra, but now thirty or forty of them have been scrapped at once.
Not to mention the long period of training a special forces, the cost is not small, and it is also necessary to ensure loyalty to Hydra, and the scrapped thirty or forty special combat personnel will definitely make the Hydra people feel distressed for a long time.
So the question is, who wants to kill these special operators the most? Internal power struggles, or enemies of S.H.I.E.L.D., or... Someone wants to deal with Hydra?
Greer's brain is a mess, and mixed thoughts come out one after another, but no matter how much he guesses, it is useless, and there is no evidence to support his conjectures, and the problem returns to the highly professional direction of finding evidence, which is precisely what Grell is not good at.
While Greer was in a state of flux, Captain America had already tightened his shield and wanted to enter the smoke-filled town to check, even if he knew that his men were absolutely wiped out, but he would have to go over and take a look, maybe someone was dying and waiting for rescue.
Captain America was about to run, when Greer's voice sounded next to him: "Captain, I'll go over, you shouldn't be as fast as my motorcycle, if I find a survivor, I can use the Peerless Dragon to transport it out, it's much more stable than you carry." ”
"Then please."
Grell nodded, pulled the zipper open, revealing the decade drive on his waist, raised his left hand, and the knight card box on his waist flashed, condensing into an agito card in Greel's left hand, which was inserted into the drive on his waist by Grell with a wave of his hand.
“Form Ride Agito Flame!”
With the sound of mechanical synthesis, the ruby in the center of the driver on his waist lit up, and the striped codes were combined into the symbol of Agito, and endless flames emanated from the driver, quickly covering Greel's whole body, turning into Agito flame armor.
As soon as he finished his transformation, Grell drew the card again and inserted it into the drive on his waist.
“Attack Ride Machine Decader!”
On the rugged ground, a magic circle with a diameter of up to three meters appeared out of thin air, and then the Decade motorcycle rose from the magic array, Grell jumped on the motorcycle, did not turn on the air mode, but twisted the accelerator, and let the motorcycle speed along the rough road towards the town.
The motorcycle, which was nearly 100 meters per second, disappeared from everyone's field of vision in the blink of an eye, disappearing into the vast dust, and Stark dropped a sentence: "I'll go see it too." Then he soared into the sky, rushing into the gray dust faster than Greel.
When the town exploded, General Ross's lungs were about to explode, and early in the morning, General Ross, who was still asleep, was woken up by the phone, and before he could speak, he was scolded by his boss, who scolded him for being bloody and doubting life.
In a series of greetings to his family and ancestors, General Ross probably understood what was going on, Bruce Banner had another accident, he was attacked by armed men in Poughkeepsie, and there was a lot of uproar, and the recovered helicopter wreckage was identified as the Army Aviation Regiment under General Ross.
There are also soldiers who attacked the Hulk, all of whom are General Ross's super soldier troops, and the most important thing is this operation, the Pentagon actually learned about the whole process from the Internet, and did not receive any reports and hints from General Ross before this.
Mobilizing troops without permission, or acting on their own territory, this is a taboo in any dynasty or country, General Ross understands that the real meaning of this scolding is to let him quickly find a way to explain, if it is not for the direct personnel, it is not a telephone now, but a military police unit that broke through the window.
General Ross was completely sleepy, cold sweat broke out, hurriedly dressed, got up, asked the driver to drive to the Pentagon immediately, and now the most important thing is to rush to the Pentagon to show that he did not have any attempt to defect by throwing himself into the net. After all, if you really want to defect or something, how can you enter the Pentagon alone.
For seven hours, General Ross was repeatedly questioned and investigated, and he also found many witnesses to prove that he was in the Middle East yesterday, and that this operation was completely unaware of it, and that someone was absolutely doing it in his name, and offered to investigate his special forces headquarters and find out the 'inner ghost', and this quid pro quo was the main reason for General Ross to get out.
His super soldier plan has successfully created a Hulk, and a large number of super soldiers, who have long been fragrant buns in the eyes of others, but General Ross regards these achievements as his lifeblood, the ladder he climbs, and refuses to let anyone interfere, and now he has taken the initiative to let go, and the other factions have benefited, so they naturally have to take a step back.
Giving up part of his life, the distressed General Ross was about to break his heart, but at the same time, his anger also rose up, and he personally led people to investigate this matter, and soon locked on a person, a person that General Ross did not expect. Samuel Stern, who is responsible for the research of super soldiers, this infected body he brought back from Chinatown, was originally used as a guinea pig, but Samuel Stern has studied the Hulk very deeply, and has successfully developed the super soldier serum based on the Hulk serum, and has gradually gained the trust of General Ross.
But Samuel Stern is a biologist after all, and he is not proficient in cyber aspects, so he forged General Ross's orders, leaving a lot of clues, so that professionals can find him by the way.
