Chapter 209 The Avenger's shield, the ultimate nest of the Ten Rings Gang!
December 20, 2012.
It has only been three days since Steve and Tony's visit, but 20 days have passed since Big Tou promised to find the Ten Ring Gang's lair in one month. In other words, there is not much time left for Big Tou.
He had promised Zhao Helen that he would go back before the New Year. If there was no news in a few days, he would not wait any longer.
By then, I wonder if Datou will not dare to come back because of fear.
It was also on this day that Frank, who had been wandering for many days without knowing where he was, finally came back.
When he saw his ferocious and cold face, Hong Fei immediately greeted him with a smile on his face and said enthusiastically: "Come on, come on, I'll show you something good, walk faster."
Frank frowned and followed him, "What did you get again?"
"Good stuff, I swear. And you've probably never seen it in your life!"
Frank kept analyzing in his mind, but he still couldn't get any clues about this item from Hong Fei's excited emotions and words.
After entering the basement, passing through the metal corridor, and arriving at the door of the warehouse, Hong Fei stopped and turned around, holding the doorknob with one hand and saying, "Are you ready?"
Looking at Hong Fei's eyeballs that seemed to be shining with light, Frank felt that this scene seemed familiar. The last time was when Hong Fei let him look at the tank.
"What kind of equipment is it again?" he couldn't help asking.
Hong Fei: "What do you think?"
"Hiss, could it be a fighter jet?"
Hong Fei shook his head: "Of course not. Wouldn't it be too crowded to put that thing in? Don't guess, get ready to witness the miracle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Fei opened the door.
Suddenly, in the center of the empty room, a white cylinder over three meters long lay on a black metal shelf.
The front end has a larger tapered angle and the end has a tail wing.
When he saw it, the furrow between Frank's eyebrows suddenly became deeper. He first stood quietly at the door and watched the thing, but then he quickly took big steps forward until he could see the thing clearly.
Some letters and numbers appeared on the surface, and some related memories were retrieved from my mind...
"W!T!F!!"
Shocked roars echoed back and forth in the empty room, and the high-decibel sound was enough to express his mood at this moment.
At the door, Hong Fei raised his head and laughed.
Frank couldn't believe it. He circled back and forth around the cylinder, reaching out his hand but only touching the cool alloy surface with his fingertips.
Hong Fei: "It's okay, just touch it! I allow it!"
Frank immediately glared at him fiercely, is this something allowed?
He stared intently at the object in front of him and said: "Madman! You are definitely a 100% madman!"
"This is biased. I am not the only one who has this thing. I only have one here. There are thousands of them in this country, and they are several times more than the second place. According to you, who can
A madman?"
Frank didn't argue and continued to stare for a while before looking away. He looked at Hong Fei with bright eyes: "Where did it come from?"
"It's a long story. In short, it belongs entirely to me and no one is going to take it from me."
"only one?"
Hong Fei suddenly smiled: "Actually, it's the same as tanks and helicopters."
Frank immediately raised his hand to his forehead and took a deep breath.
After a while, the two left the basement and returned indoors.
Frank let out a long sigh of relief after sitting down, but his brows remained unmoved: "You just put it in the basement and sleep on it every day?"
Hong Fei took his leisure time and said while making tea: "That's true, but it won't explode suddenly, right?"
"You're not worried at all?"
"Actually, a little bit."
"What are you going to do with it?"
"I don't know. At least I haven't thought about it yet. I shouldn't be able to use this kind of thing casually, right?"
Frank squeezed the table hard and almost gritted his teeth and said: "It's not that it should be, it's absolutely!"
Hong Fei raised his eyes and looked at him: "Absolutely, absolutely, why are you so excited?"
Frank gritted his teeth, calmed down and said, "If you want to use this thing one day, remember to contact me in advance."
"what?"
"This is a nuclear bomb. If you are not careful, it may provoke a nuclear war on a global scale. Do you know about the fringe system?"
"Know."
The fringe system is also called the Hand of Death. In short, as long as the top brass of the nuclear-armed countries are wiped out and there is no response to the system's inquiries, it will activate and attack all nuclear-armed countries in the world. Now there are
The country has a three-in-one nuclear strike system. If a nuclear war really breaks out, the party that is attacked first will definitely have the power to fight back.
Frank said seriously: "So, don't be impulsive. You have to know that it is completely different from a tank or a helicopter."
Hong Fei nodded: "I understand, don't worry, I won't throw it to the White House, and neither will the Pentagon."
Frank bared his teeth viciously. He felt that the more Hong Fei said this, the more worried he became.
After a while, Hong Fei poured him a cup of hot tea and comforted him: "Okay, don't worry, this world is actually very safe. Although war is inevitable, if humans really want to die, someone will definitely come out to stop it.
Yes, you are very lucky."
"What's the meaning?"
"Literally." Hong Fei smiled.
This world has real superheroes, magicians, and superpowers, but some worlds don't. Humans in that place may really die if they seek death, so from this perspective, the people here are very lucky.
After pouring the hot tea into his stomach, Frank opened his mouth and blew out a breath of hot air. He then stood up and said, "You can drink it yourself, I'm going down!"
"Okay, I'll take a shower and change my clothes before I come back. I have something to tell you."
Frank waved his hand.
After a while, Frank and Hong Fei sat on the balcony, each wearing only a pair of shorts and lying down in the sun.
Hong Fei lay on his stomach and said, "The Avengers came to me a few days ago and they proposed a cooperation plan. I think it's good, so I have agreed."
Frank closed his eyes and replied, "That's your business."
"This time it's not just my business."
Later, Hong Fei conveyed the cooperation plan to Frank.
Frank didn't respond for a long time after listening, and then asked after a long time: "What conspiracy do you have this time?"
Hong Fei clicked his tongue twice, not bothering to argue anymore, and said directly: "There is really no conspiracy this time, but I think it is good for us to retain the Avengers team."
"How to say?"
"You see, when I went to find you, the world was very quiet. Although there were people with superpowers, they were not many, and they were not well known to everyone. However, today, there are all kinds of strange things
Weird people have appeared. At this moment, it has been proven that what I said back then was correct. This world is really wonderful."
Frank hummed.
Hong Fei: "Governments of various countries must have been aware of this situation for a long time. The formation of super-power teams should be said to be the general trend. Strictly speaking, S.H.I.E.L.D. itself is a temporary substitute when there is no explosion of super-powers in the past.
This is an agency with responsibilities, and its design scope is very wide. It is not just North America. Its scope of responsibilities is nominally the whole world, but powerful countries can ignore it. Coupled with the background of its establishment, it is naturally
Being closer to the country beneath our feet further weakens its fundamental nature.
The Avengers are a benchmark. It means that superheroes can step onto this stage that attracts world attention. He can not only unify and play the role of this group of people, but also attract more suitable people to join in the future.
However, there are always two sides to everything. Although it is now prosperous, it can be regarded as a semi-official group. On the one hand, it carries the expectations of Tony, Steve and others, but at the same time, it needs to accept official supervision to a certain extent.
As the saying goes, if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them; if they behave above others, they will be rejected by others.
Let’s not talk about the future for now, at least for now, the official has started to promote the Avengers during the Battle of New York and deliberately weakened our existence. This is actually a good thing. They are our shields. If the Avengers no longer exist, then some people
He will set his sights on us, and then maybe I can’t help but throw a nuclear bomb on his bed.”
Frank rolled his eyes.
"All in all, the existence of the Avengers team is beneficial to us. Cooperation with each other is a good thing. I don't expect a win-win situation. Let's just treat it as poverty alleviation."
Frank: "So what are you going to teach them?"
"There's nothing to teach. Just teach yourself when members are exchanging. It depends on your understanding."
"Aren't you afraid that they will know your secrets?"
"I don't think any Avenger has such ability. What I'm more worried about is that our people will fight with them after they pass by."
Frank nodded slightly: "It seems you are still aware of yourself."
"Stop talking nonsense, we will sign a cooperation agreement next year, and the exchanges will begin immediately. We will have to discuss who will go first. Please remember to help me with the people coming over there."
"it's me again?"
"As you say, who doesn't know your ability? If you are capable, you will work harder. I will give you a year-end bonus."
…
The next day, Frank returned to Sokovia.
Hong Fei tapped on the table and listened to the report on the screen in front of him.
"Boss, fortunately, I found it!" As he said that, the screen flashed and turned into an aerial video.
It was a stretch of mountains with lush vegetation, but was covered by deep snow in winter. When the aircraft passed through a high mountain, the vision suddenly opened up, and an artificial building located on the mountainside came into view.
Half of it leans into the mountain, and the extended part presents a black ancient palace style. There are many figures walking back and forth in the wide square outside the front hall.
However, the aircraft did not approach rashly. Instead, it adjusted the focus to take pictures from a distance. After lingering for a while, the picture finally disappeared.
Datou: "Boss, I assure you, this is definitely the final lair of the Ten Rings Gang. It is so hidden that many people from the Ten Rings Gang don't even know about this place. They don't even know the name you told me."
heard about it."
"Then how did you find it?"
"Everywhere I go, I will directly control a leader to contact his peers or superiors, and then trace them back in turn. However, the scale of the Ten Rings Gang is indeed not small, and the organizational structure is very mysterious. In some places, the leaders have no initiative at all.
I contacted my superiors, and they had many spies, so the clues were almost lost several times.”
"Okay, I did a great job this time. I'll give you a chance to make a request later."
Datou breathed a deep sigh of relief, and at the same time bowed happily: "Thank you, boss!"
"Let's meet on time at seven o'clock tomorrow morning for action."
