"This is what you need to carry out your mission."
Helmut Zemo suddenly felt his hand feel heavy. He looked down and found a briefcase in his hand. This strange phenomenon startled him. He just raised his head to ask,
He found a stream of water vapor mixed with the smell of mud coming towards him. The strong light stimulated him so much that he could hardly open his eyes. In a daze, the sounds of cars and people came like a tide. When he reluctantly opened his eyes, he found that
He was sitting on a bench, with a wide river flowing slowly in front of him. The last second he was in a light-proof tent that was probably located in Latvinia, and the air was full of tea.
Combined with the sweet smell of honey and the cold metallic smell exuded by the power armor, the next moment he was sitting on a park bench, with vehicles and pedestrians slowly passing by the green shade behind him.
The sudden change of scene made him feel chills all over, his heart was beating rapidly, and his nose was filled with the smell of ionized air.
Was he transported to this place after being injected with an anesthetic, or did he forget what happened not long ago for some reason? Is it an injectable anesthetic or an inhaled anesthetic? What kind of drug can make him lose the memory of a specific time?
How did they transport him to this place without raising suspicion?
He kept listing all the possibilities in his mind, but these possibilities were quickly overturned by him.
Because he is sitting here completely, there is no numbness in the extremities of his limbs, his blood sugar level is normal, and his body surface temperature is normal, which means that he was not transported here after being anesthetized. He has no idea what happened, and the whole thing is obvious.
It was bizarre and strange, and the fear that seeped into his bones made his limbs stiff and unable to move. He could only sit on a bench - he understood that this was the other party's way of showing strength and forcing him to follow the plan. However, when he looked across the river,
, the irritability of life and death as well as the involuntary anger and pain were immediately washed away by the beautiful scenery in front of him, and the memories of the past completely submerged him like surging waves.
It was a familiar spire building with rows of warm red roofs. The building complex released a fairy-tale warmth under the sun. The slowly flowing river surface was like a sparkling gold silk ribbon with a black background, rising from the masonry buildings.
The greenery emerging between the white walls is like the leaves in the flowers, dotting the scenery on the other side of the river, setting off the gradually rising buildings from the Kafka Museum, the Small Town Bridge Tower, St. Nicholas Church, the Rockowitz Palace, etc.
The building complex and the gorgeous spire palace in the distance. Helmut Zemo breathed carefully, as if even the air was filled with a dreamy color that he did not dare to break.
He is now in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, the capital of a thousand cities.
That is Prague Castle, and the building next to it is St. Vitus Cathedral, where he once traveled with his wife. The river in front of him is the Vltava River, and the steel bridge not far away should be the Charles Bridge.
The scenery in front of him aroused his memories. He recalled that during their wedding and honeymoon, they had dined at the Czech restaurant pod vě?í opposite the Carl Ziman Museum. They also went to the Rudolfinum Concert Hall to enjoy the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra.
Every brick and stone here has witnessed the laughter between him and his wife. He will never forget the afternoon when he and his wife were walking along the Vltava River while eating cranberry ice cream.
He couldn't miss the scene where the sun penetrated the green shade and shone on her beautiful smiling face. Those green leaves and white walls, the fat orange cat and the woman wearing a white dress, that scene was so beautiful that he couldn't breathe.
Gu Xi
After a while, Helmut Zemo lowered his head again.
He gritted his teeth and wiped away the regret and sorrow on his face, summoned the anger deep in his heart, and opened the briefcase with stiff fingers. He carefully inspected the contents inside - there were several false identities in the briefcase, several The address of a safe house, several accounts under false identities, some Czechoslovak crowns and Hungarian forints, and a phone number that he could contact in case of emergency. He naturally recalled the purpose of these things and every detail of the plan. Details, as if someone had stuffed the entire complex plan and all the information required for the plan into his mind. The entire plan partly followed the steps he originally formulated, but many details and goals were added. Moreover, the resources he can use (manpower, material resources, and connections) are beyond his imagination. He even has the opportunity to call for ballistic missiles to attack a designated location. The cost of all this is just a few more people on the list. That's all, he can get everything he wants.
However, he could not remember what the person he was talking to looked like, what kind of clothes he was wearing, and what kind of voice he had. He only remembered the giant in gorgeous golden armor, and his memory had a blank space, as if He had a conversation not with a warlord but with a devil, made a Faustian bargain and got what he wanted. He also found a mobile phone in the briefcase. It was his mobile phone. During the arrest, the women wearing black power armor searched it away. There was no confidential information in this worthless mobile phone. The reason why he regarded it as a treasure was because it contained a recording.
He clicked the play button, closed his eyes, and listened to his wife's last voice for the last time. Although the fear in his heart still lingered, Helmut Zemo did not feel regret. If he had sold his soul to the devil, Then he has sold it at a good price and got what he wants.
Immortal City has a disaster reconstruction mechanism, and within this mechanism there is a plan specifically applicable to homeless people who are separated from their relatives. Compared with the European and American aid models for refugees, Immortal City's method is much more complete. For example, work-for-relief is carried out in the name of an enterprise, and while implementing standardized management, it provides help to women, the elderly, children and the disabled, instead of just distributing money and ignoring the rest. Lazy people will be screened out, and hardworking people will be eliminated. Promotion, the power of the Immortal City gradually took root in this area along with the aid plan, and finally formed the de facto ruler of this area.
Due to the shortage of human resources in the Eternal City, Stephanie will try her best to find any way to absorb outsiders, and cultivating specific talents among refugees is one of them. There is no other reason. Education is the part Salomon cares most about. The respected rational world needs knowledge as a support. Whether it is Latvinia or Ukraine, on the African continent or in Latin America, there are temporary schools established by the Eternal City. Preachers work tirelessly to instill the "Eternal City" in young people. "Unified Truth" - Because this book stitches together a large number of Marxist-Leninist theories, and at the same time advocates using rationality and science as the main spirit to create a world where everyone is equal and creates overall and individual freedom, it fills the gap between Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. There was a void in my thoughts after that.
"Unified Truth" is very offensive and invasive. It advocates unity of mind and that individual interests must be dedicated to the overall interests. It is very suitable for the refugees to survive in groups, so it has been supported by ordinary people. When they chose this
After this way of life, the second half of "Unified Truth" about the prospects of the human race and the future new order is easier to accept, and it is very easy to think of the now-disintegrated Soviet Union, where most people have abandoned religion (at least openly
This is the case (it is not compulsory to abandon religion now) and turn to the ideas advocated by the Eternal City. This scene is happening in Africa and Latin America at the same time, and everyone, whether it is guerrillas or liberation theology, is welcome.
Salomon's ideals are like sparks that begin to burn throughout the world. Although they are only small flames at the moment, he firmly believes that a prairie fire will come soon. The world needs a thorough cleansing flame.
There is no doubt about this. If we don’t do this, humanity will have no future.
Stephanie raised her head and glanced at a message on the computer screen. "Diana." She stretched out her hand to greet her secretary, "Ask the scribe, Mrs. Zemo, to come to the office."
